thought he’d have enough time to go home when he’d invited Sean to come over the night before.
    The door crept open and Jaime smiled when he saw Sean was up.
    “Hey.” Jaime closed the door behind him and walked to the bed. “I thought you were going to sleep through breakfast.”
    “Breakfast?” Sean was more of a brunch person. Sometimes when he had to get up early for classes, Travis would make him eat a bagel.
    “Are you on some weird dancer diet that doesn’t let you eat breakfast?” Jaime climbed on the bed and crawled over Sean so he was pressing Sean down on his back as Jaime nipped at his neck. “Because I was thinking you’d need the energy, and I don’t have any weird diet shakes or anything.”
    “I usually sleep through it,” Sean mumbled as Jaime pressed a soft kiss to the base of his neck.
    “Well, if you want something since you woke up, it’s ready.” Jaime pulled back, smirking at Sean’s soft whine of protest. “I’m not going to make you get up before you want to on your day off, but I’m warning you that there’s a limit on how long Lexi will save you some.”
    With that, Jaime left him, closing the door behind him. Part of Sean wanted to sleep for another hour. He couldn’t relax with the warmth that came over him as he realized no guy had ever cooked him breakfast. Maybe he had been missing out by not dating morning people. No, he was not going to get up early all the time, but Jaime had no way of knowing he usually slept until eleven on Sundays. What mattered was that he’d made breakfast the first morning they really had to spend together.
    Jaime was at the stove when Sean came out to the kitchen wearing the same clothes he’d had on the night before. He’d assumed he was spending the night, but bringing extra clothes seemed like too much. He’d tried to make something of his hair in the small mirror in Jaime’s room before deciding he’d just have to face Aleksandra on the way to the bathroom.
    “He wakes.” Aleksandra was sitting at the table with one leg curled under her on the small padded folding chair. Sean couldn’t imagine it was comfortable, but she seemed to think so. Her hair was in messy dark waves around her shoulders, and she was still dressed in a tank top and pajama pants Sean assumed she’d slept in.
    “Yeah. Good morning?” Sean glanced behind Aleksandra toward the bathroom, and she laughed as she waved him away.
    “Go ahead. I’m not as uncivilized as this one makes me out to be. I’ll leave you something to eat.”
    “Yeah. She’ll just eat my food instead,” Jaime said as Sean closed the door to the bathroom and surveyed his options. Jaime’s hair was trimmed so close to his head that any hair products had to be Aleksandra’s, and he should probably not steal her products without asking. Instead, he’d just have to hope water would make whatever gel was left in his hair from the day before hold some kind of a decent shape. He splashed his face with water and gave up hope there was a moisturizer he could use without getting caught. If his skin felt dry later, he’d just do a mask. It was always worth doing with Alana anyway, because Travis hated looking at them.
    “Do you like breakfast burritos?” Jaime asked when he came back in the kitchen. “If you don’t, there’s also bacon because Lexi demanded some, or you could have eggs without all the fun stuff if you wanted. There’s also cereal, because Lexi has to eat something when I’m not home.”
    “A breakfast burrito’s good.”
    “Usually he makes them spicier, but he was afraid you couldn’t handle it, so they’re not as good,” Aleksandra said as she took another bite of her own.
    “They’re just as good.” Jaime set a plate in front of him. There was already orange juice on the table, so Sean shook his head at the offer of coffee.
    “You don’t drink coffee?” Aleksandra stared at him like he’d just told her he murdered small children.
    “Sometimes, if I
