A hum left the brunette who laid her head on Jeff's lap as he ran his fingers through her soft curly locks. A snoring of the three dogs could be heard on the couch in the man's living room near the two. Her doe eyes drifted shut every so often as the voice of Tony Stark echoed in the background, slowly becoming further and further away from her as sleep slowly crept on her.

She was still on tour, and only had seven more to go.

Which meant she was very emotional, and the only person who appeared to keep her grounded was the man below her. Jeff had offered to stay with her for the remainder of her shows despite needing to film for his channel. Marina declined despite her selfish side wanting to keep him with her.

Since the two admitted their feelings to one another on Halloween night, a month prior, she had began to fall deeper and deeper for the man. The unknown feelings she had acquired for months since meeting him had become more clearer as she spoke and spent time with him.

As for Jeff, he had already fallen head over heels since the moment she popped her head out from the back of David's Tesla early on that year. Infatuation had quickly turned into a crush and not too long after followed love.

As does any love story.

And their friends never failed to tease them about it. Luckily for Marina with her being on tour, that left Jeff to deal with his group of friends who mercilessly teased the man about his relationship with the pop star. The goofy grins he'd make looking down at his phone once it dinged, the nicknames he'd give her forgetting Todd and Jason were across from him stifling their laughter as he giggled to himself like a school girl. The blush he'd wear after reading a private text and or photo, a knowing look would appear on both Natalie and Corinna's faces alongside a shared smirk.

Anyone could easily see how smitten the two were with one another, and they didn't care to hide it one bit.

It had been a long time since either of the two truly felt happiness in another person and felt genuine comfort involving someone else. A feeling many dreamed of experiencing. And no one dared to judge or give their opinion on it.

A deep laugh left the man below her waking her up as he stared at the billionaire on the screen who ate a donut inside of a donut. Marina hummed blinking as he peered down at her, his hand now resting on her bare shoulder.

"You fallin' asleep?" He questioned earning a head shake from the brunette, earning a small smile from the man. "Liar."

"I'm awake." She murmured.

Jeff hummed watching as she sat up, his hands made their way around her waist as he guided her onto his lap. A sleepy smile made its way onto her soft features as he ran his hands on her sides against her grey tank top.

"What happened to a Marvel marathon, hmm?" He asked as she laid her head in the crook of his neck and pouted. "Have to watch Liana meet the Avengers."

"You've watched it seventeen times." She mumbled.

Jeff parted his lips, "I told you that in confidence." He said acting offended by her words.

"David said you watched it twenty seven times." Marina added, "Kept rewinding when she showed up for the first time in Age Of Ultron." She mused as his cheeks tinted pink.

"It kept freezing."

"Mm hmm."

"Fine, wanna be like that, fine." He said as his fingers began to dig into her sides as she erupted into fits of giggles falling onto her side on the couch as he continued to tickle the brunette.

The three dogs awoke upon the two and began to stretch out across the couch with small grunts.

Jeff noticed and halted as she pleaded for him to stop, "You woke 'em up." He accused as she glared up at him and shoved his chest playfully. "Time for bed, doll." He announced as he stood up and began to grab the bowl of the remainder of the popcorn and emptied it out as he began to wash the bowl.

Marina turned around watched the man walk around the kitchen, her chin placed on her forearms that were crossed.

"Take a picture it'll last longer." He said as she hid her shy grin in her arms. He smiled and looked back down as he turned off the faucet. And walked over to the brunette who outstretched her arms much like a baby indicating she wanted to be picked up.

Swiftly, Jeff picked her up with an obnoxious groan. Her legs wrapped themselves around his waist, her cheek pressed against his shoulder as he carried her into his bedroom and laid her down on his bed and pulled his duvet over her frame.

With a whistle, "Bedtime. Nerf." He called as the dog waddled into the room and laid down on his bed, as both Myron and Toulouse ran in and hopped on top of the bed and laid at the feet of the bed.

Marina cuddled his pillow to her face inhaling the man's scent as she peeked over the pillow towards the restroom seeing the man removing his shirt and entering the bedroom once again. Boy did she miss the view when she was on tour, she thought to herself dreamily as he climbed into bed and wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her into his broad chest.

She felt his beard tickled her shoulder blade as he pressed his lips to her tanned skin. "Goodnight, doll." He said pressing his lips to her earlobe.

"Goodnight." She murmured kissing the top of his hand that was laying loosely around her waist. "Sweet dreams."

Jeff smiled softly, "Sweet dreams."
