“Which one, Chinese or pizza,” Poe held up the two pamphlets for the individual restaurants they were thinking of ordering from for dinner and Roy thought about it, rubbing his neck
“I don’t really know what the Chinese place has. Is it even good?”
“What, yeah it’s the best! Much better then the pizza place”
“Nothing can beat their pizzas Poe!”
She huffed, sitting next to him as he put his arm around her, gently leaning his head against hers as she put up the Chinese menu. “No let me show you what they have ok? You can’t avoid this place forever.”
He would chuckle as she started explaining the different foods the restaurant had, watching her face get animated and excited as she explained. He’d make soft noises when necessary, but at some point he begin watching her more then what she was saying.
She was really gorgeous when she got so animated. Not that she wasn’t gorgeous otherwise, but it added a whole new level to her, the sparkle in her eyes, how she would bounce a bit when she would make a point she’d think was genius. And when he did listen to her, which was normally always, he always got invested in what she was speaking of. She just had that sway over him.
Kissing her shoulder as she continued talking he smiled slightly. He really loved her tiny quirks, and wouldn’t want to trade them for anything else.
“So see? That’s why this place is great.”
“Mm yeah. Ok fine Chinese since you wanted it so much.”
“Well actually I wanted pizza.”
“…don’t look at me like that I had to stand up for the underdog!”
He woke up early for once.
Now looking at the clock by the bedside, it wasn’t exactly early, or what they typically thought was early, but on a day with the kids at Uncle Ken’s and no work to do it was early for the two of them.
Especially since Kal wasn’t up yet. She was usually up and moving before him, somehow managing to get up. How she did it he would never know.
Reaching and getting his glasses so he could actually see her clearly he would lean his head back on the pillow as he looked at her, her back to him this morning and his arm holding her close to him. He would push some of her hair away from tickling his face, not wanting to sneeze.
She was so gentle asleep. She was gentle awake but awake she was also like steel, strong enough to handle the entire family without any problems. She was the true head of everything, able to make anyone do what she wanted with a right look. He didn’t mind being bossed around by her, although it didn’t come around often where she needed to boss him around.
Twisting her strands of hair around his fingers he’d get to braiding the strands, needing to keep his hands busy. It gave him an excuse to stay with her anyways, he would use any way he could to stay with her. Her presence was intoxicating to him most of the time, a drug he was certain he wasn’t going to give up. Which is why he married her, harder to give up if he promised for life with her.
He really loved this gentle, strong woman in his arms. He wouldn’t change having her with him for anything. Finishing the tiny braid he noticed her stirring awake.
“Mm. Morning Der… you’re already awake?” She’d roll to look at him, touching her hair where she felt his fingers had been. “And braiding my hair?”
He shrugged. “Changing our normal morning up I guess. “
“Huh,” she’d move her arm around him, gently kissing his chest as she pressed closer to him. “Alrighty then. Want to go back to sleep?”
“Yeah,” he kissed the top of her head. “I’d love to.”
Lying in the office’s handy little bed, Clara watched Lukas as discreetly as she could, failing with those big doe eyes. While it was nice having him next to her in the bed, it was also nice watching as he worked, finishing a few things that needed to be done for the club before he could relax.
Pulling a pillow close to hug as she looked on she would smile softly. He was an old Viking vampire, one who she know could be very scary if he wanted to be. And flirty. And not very shy with how he liked certain activities that made her blush at the thought. But she got to see him being quiet and concentrated over his work, gentle with her, and one she could hold onto when she got lonely.
It sort of ruined the bad boy look he had going for himself but she liked it. Not just cause he changed around her but because he didn’t seem to mind that she saw it.
Smiling to herself softly she didn’t notice Lukas staring at her, having seemed to notice her not so sneaky stare finally. “See something you like?”
She’d jump before laughing, tightening her hold on the pillow. “Maybe. You done yet?”
“Almost. But maybe I’ll just stay here, you seem to like looking at me over here.”
“It would get boring pretty fast if we just stared at one another.”
Jacob was making breakfast, a late breakfast for the two of them. Sadie had woken up early that morning and they had just managed to get her back down for a nap, cuddling her stuffed walrus in her crib. Augustine sat in the kitchen chair, sleepily watching him make food with a yawn.
She really did hit the jackpot with him. Not just his body alone, which was very nice from where she was looking at him, not minding at all that he was just in sweat pants and nothing else. But just in what he gave her.
Feeling loved everyday, feeling extremely happy in life. Without him right now she doubted she’d be this content in life. He held her when she was upset and made her laugh as well. He was the man she would always chose, even if she didn’t know it at one time.
He was hers, and she liked it that way. He was her family, her best friend, and the love of her life. She wouldn’t give him up for anything in the world.
“So I made us toast,” he sat down next to her with two plates of food. “And a bowl of fruit. Very fancy.”
“Ah yes indeed,” she laughed, kissing his cheek. “Thank you ducky.”
“You’re welcome jitters,” he pulled her in for a deeper kiss, one that she happily responded to.
