Ficlets

Breakfast in the Morning

I woke up and felt his arms still around me from the night before. I looked over my shoulder to see he was still asleep. Gently, I removed his arms and stood up. I grabbed his blue, button-down shirt from the floor and slipped into it.

I walked into the kitchen and grabbed two plates. I set them down and went to the freezer, taking out the Eggo waffels in there. I put four in the toaster and pushed them down. I went back near the plates and grabed two blueberry muffins, setting one on each plate.

I heard movement then and I looked up to see Jack sitting up in bed watching me.

“Milk or orange juice?” I asked him.

He laughed and answered, “Orange juice please.”

I went back to the fridge and grabbed the orange juice. I then grabbed two glasses and set them on the counter, pouring orange juice into them. Just as I finished, I felt his arms around my waist and his lips on my neck.

“You look beautiful in my shirt, Christine.” He whispered.

“Thanks.” I said as I turned and kissed him gently.
