Chapter 40: We Have All Morning-1

"Good morning, sunshine." I jumped on Hunter, straddling his waist. He was barely awake. He stretches and rubs his eyes to open them, "Morning, sweetheart." Hunter was one of those guys with the super sexy morning voice and the messy, but some how makes him look even hotter, hair. "It's your birthday." I whispered. "Maybe I'll get a present." He turned me so that he was on leaning over me. "Oh no... I've got a big test tomorrow afternoon and another one to study for. So I'll be studying all afternoon and night." He dragged his hand down his face and then looked at me with mischievous eyes, "That means we have all morning." "No can't do. Gotta type the first chapter of my novel today for Professor Jones. He wants a rough in tomorrow." Hunter looked disappointed, "I'll tell him you were celebrating with me." "I'm so sorry, Hunt but you know how important this is to me. It's my chance to co-write a book that could be published." "Yeah, I get it," he slumped onto the other side of his bed, "I just wish you weren't so busy today out of all days." "I know. And I really am so sorry. I promise I'll make it up to you though." I winked and kissed Hunter before leaving to go start my short story. - Soft lips trailed my neck as I typed, "Do you know how hot you look right now?" I was in my pajamas, with a messy bun, no make up and my glasses and Hunter was calling me hot. I don't know what I did to deserve this man. I laughed and turned around to see a shirtless Hunter, "You sure do know how to make a woman feel special." "Anything for my sweetheart." Hunter kissed me. I mumbled trying to break free of Hunter's kiss, "You're distracting me and I gotta work." I spun back around to my laptop but Hunter continued kissing me along my neck. "Fine. Five minutes." I said as I turned back around again to kiss Hunter as he lifted me up and placed me on my desk. - "Ty's taking me and some of the guys out for lunch. You wanna come?" Hunter popped his head into my room. I looked at him apologetically. "It's okay, I understand, sweetheart. I'll see you when I come back." As soon as I heard Hunter leave he apartment, I messaged Sky. __________________________ Operation Surprise Party Come over Read 13:30 Sky ????❤️ Be there soon. Ivy ????❤️ Let's do this ???????? __________________________ Ivy joined us shorty after Skylar. She was one of Hunter's closest friends. We had met when I went to his parents' house and her and I got along quite well. She also surprisingly recently transferred to the same college as me and Hunt, which meant I spent more time with her. And even Sky liked her, which is why we decided to invite set up Hunter's surprise party. After all, she probably knew him the best. "How did Hunter take it?" Skylar asked as she she blew up balloons. "Oh Sky, I felt so bad. He looked so disappointed." I really did feel bad for lying to Hunter. Although, I was starting my short story, Tyler and I made a plan to get Hunter out of the house so that I could set up the apartment for a surprise party, so I had to lie so he would leave. "Somebody's whipped." Ivy smiled from the corner. Skylar nodded in agreement. "No way. We've only been together for like a month and a bit." I was decorating a cake for Hunter. A black motorcycle. "And who says you can't be in love after a month?" Sky pointed. "Mhmmm..." Ivy commented. "Come on guys, this is me we're talking about. I don't fall in love that easily. Hell, I haven't even been in a proper relationship since Theo. And that was like 3 years ago. Plus I've never told I guy I loved him." "Never?" Ivy gasped and I nodded, "Never." "How is he by the way?" Sky asked. "Theo?" Sky nodded, "Good. He's coming tonight. I had to steal his number off Hunter's phone." We all laughed at the fast blooming bromance between the two of them. "Speak of the devil." I laughed holding up my phone, "Hey babe." "Awww..." Sky and Ivy cooed at the same time and I made hand movements to tell them to shut up. If he heard I wasn't alone he might suspect something. "Hey. What was that noise?" "The neighbors. They won't shut up." "Must I come over and talk to them for you?" The way he said it meant that it wouldn't just be a friendly conversation. I laughed, "No Hunter. So why'd you call?" "What? I can't call my beautiful girlfriend just to check in and see if she's fine?" I blushed and Skylar and Ivy eyed me curiously, "You think I'm beautiful?" The line was silent for a moment, "You're so much more than beautiful." I sighed and didn't bother trying to hide the fact that I was blushing this time which just got me more curious looks from Sky and Ivy. We were silent for a few seconds before Hunter spoke again, "I was wondering if you were still busy?" "I see... So there is a reason that you called me." "Mhmm but I just forgot it when I heard your voice." "You're on a roll tonight. Smooth, Mr Maddox. Very smooth." I shook my head and smiled to myself. "Smoother than those legs you shaved for tonight?" "Hunter!" "What?" He sounded defensive but I knew he was laughing. "So? You busy?" "I just got a wave of inspiration that I don't think is gonna pass anytime soon." Hunter sighed, "As long as I had something to do with that inspiration wave then it's fine." "In your dreams." "My birthday dreams." I could almost hear him wink. "I just winked. At my phone. It's such a habit with you and now people are looking at me like I'm a mad man." "I knew it!" I was laughing uncontrollably but I had to know where Hunter was going so we could plan his party around it. "So where you going?" "Theo's taking us out for a few drinks." "Go enjoy yourself. And I'll see you soon?" "Of course, sweetheart. Good luck with the writing." "Thanks Hunt." I put the phone down and looked at Sky. "Whipped." Skylar coughed and Ivy laughed.
