Chapter Text
James is somewhere between sleep and awake when he rolls over in the tousled sheets. He reaches out for Teresa, when all he gets is an empty spot.
He sighs. Not again.
He gets up wearing only his boxers going to look for Teresa. He hears water running so he walks over to the bathroom leaning against the doorframe watching her. She is wearing a long shirt that reaches about mid thigh. Teresa looks in the mirror spotting James dropping her toothbrush before turning to him leaning against the counter.
“You know this is the second time I have woken up alone in your bed.”
“Sorry, I thought you would still be asleep.”
James looks at her with hunger in his eyes. He pushes off the doorway and stalks his way to her ready to pounce. He stops right in front of her cupping her cheek. He lightly kisses her softly.
“Morning my Tigress.”
Teresa kisses him back pulling him closer until he grasps her by the back of her legs lifting her to sit on the counter so they are at equal level. Teresa tangles her hand in his bed head kissing him back with just as much as intensity as he was giving.

Meanwhile down in the kitchen Pote was pulling out a breakfast frittata while Kelly Anne was checking her emails.
“Oh my god that smells wonderful.”
Pote lets out a small smile.
“I take it your pinche husband never cooked for you?”
“No, Cole always ordered out, barely taking me out to dinner.”
“He got what he deserved.”
Kelly Anne looks around and sees Teresa still wasn't up.
“Teresa's not up yet. Do you want me to let her know breakfast is ready?”
Pote nods his head before turning and sprinkling the cheese on the top of the breakfast bake putting it back in the oven.
Kelly Anne walks up to Teresa's room and sees the door is open so she walks in.
“Teresa? You awake girl? Grumpy Bear made….”
She looks to the bathroom and sees Teresa propped up on the sink with James's mouth on her neck and his hands under her shirt.
“Oh my God! I'm so sorry.”
She quickly turns around giving them privacy. James lets Teresa hop down so she can fix her shirt.
“It’s okay Kelly Anne.” Teresa says as she walks out of the bathroom.
“Pote wanted me to let you know breakfast is done, but I can see you are busy.”
Kelly Anne looks behind Teresa and sees that James’ is leaning against the doorway and his hair is literally sticking up on all ends. She tried to not laugh.
“Tell Pote I'll be down later, thank you.”
Kelly Anne nods her head leaving, making sure to close Teresa's bedroom door.
“Well now that cats out of the bag.”
She looks at James and can’t help but let out a laugh.
He just glares at her.
“You are quite grumpy in the morning.”
“I don't like to be interrupted. I finally have you and I don't plan on letting you go.”
He pulls her to him, so that they are touching and swipes some of her hair out of her face.
“Any chance we can take the day off and just stay right here?”
Teresa raises her eyebrows to him, and can't help but really like that idea.
Teresa wraps her arms around his neck pulling him down to her lips.
“I think that sounds like a perfect plan.”
She seals their lips together and James not wasting any time picks her up depositing her on the side of the bed. Happily leaving where they left off.
~~~~~
Meanwhile a shocked Kelly Anne returns to the kitchen and sees Pote dishing out food.
“Where’s Teresita?”
Kelly Anne schools her features trying not to give anything away.
“Oh she was preoccupied and said she would be down later to eat.”
Pote lets out a grumble when all of a sudden they hear commotion
Just then Charger comes in swearing about crazy white girls.
“Has anyone seen James? I can't find him and he's not answering his phone. He has a visitor.”
Pote just set Kelly Anne's plate down looking at her.
“No, have you checked the weight room?”
I checked the entire house inside and out. Maybe boss lady knows her car is here so maybe they are upstairs discussing business.”
Kelly Anne takes a sip of her orange Juice, trying not to give anything away. More like getting down to business.
“I'll go check and see.”
Kelly Anne hops up quickly, stopping him from going.
“No I'll go. I have to tell her something anyways.”
She heads back upstairs and knows Teresa is going to kill her, or more like James will.

Meanwhile in Teresa's room they are making out pretty hot and heavy and Teresa has James boxer's pushed a good part of the way down while his hands are roaming under her shirt. He was just about to pull it off her completely when he hears another knock on her door.
“For fucks sake.” he grumbles against Teresa's neck.
He helps Teresa pull her shirt back down, grabbing a shirt and re adjusting his boxers before practically ripping the door open to see a frightened Kelly Anne.
“I'm really sorry to bother you guys but Charger is looking for you James and he was going to come up here but I didn't think you wanted anyone to know so I…”
James looks at Kelly Anne in thanks. “Who's here?”
She tries not to notice the red marks peeking out from the top of his shirt.
“I don’t know.”
James nods his head before turning to see Teresa perched on the bed, just as confused as he is.
He sighs deeply turning back to Kelly Anne.
“Tell them I'll be down in a few minutes.”
Kelly Anna nods and James closes the door. He turns back to Teresa, walking over standing in between her legs. He smooths down some of her hair.
“So much for staying in bed all day.”
“I'll be back in a few minutes, I'll find out who it is then get rid of them. Then I'm coming back up here to worship this body.”
He kisses her deeply to show his promise and quickly grabs his clothes from the night before pulling them on. He realizes he doesn't have his gun with him and Teresa can sense that's what he is looking for. She reaches over to the night stand and pulls her gun out handing it to him. He takes the gun setting it to the side of them He grasps her hand pulling her back to him kissing her softly.
“I promise.”
Teresa nods before smoothing down his sticking up hair. “I'll be waiting.”
James kisses her one more time, tucking her gun in the back of his pants, pulling the door open practically stomping down the stairs.
He walks into the kitchen and sees Pote and Kelly Anne at the kitchen table. Kelly Anne is avoiding his gaze while Pote is staring at him.
Pote looks at James and he realizes that he is still in the same clothes as the night before. He looks at a nervous Kelly Anne and realizes why she is so jumpy.
Pote just nods towards the living room.
James walks barefoot into the living room wondering who the hell was disturbing him. He hears the last word he thought he would ever hear.
“Jimmy.”
