Sam's pov:

3 months ago we bought our dream house and ,over into it last week. Almost all the rooms are ready, only the children's rooms are still empty, we will finish them when the time comes. 

I lay in my bed that morning with my eyes closed to ponder how best to implement the next plan. I was about to go back to sleep, because I couldn't think of anything when I heard the door downstairs - Penny was coming back from her night shift. I listened to her gentle footsteps and opened my eyes as she came up the stairs. I closed my eyes again, when she came into the bedroom.

"I saw your eyes, Sam." Penny stood leaning in the doorway with her arms crossed and looked at me skeptically. "I won't let you kid me again."

"You have to admit it was a bit funny how you scared. That's what you like." I lookeed at her with a crooked grin when I thought about yesterday - Penny came back from her night shift:

Penny came back from her night shift when I spontaneously tried to scare her - I pretended to be asleep. I heard how she went to the closet and how she open it.  I opened one eye carefully to check that her back was to me - In fact she did, which is why I watched her her put on a top and a short. She could wear everything and still look so beautiful. A dreamy smile came to my face when I closed eyes again as Penny turned around to me and lay down next to me. She snuggeld up to me and laid her head on my bare chest. When I opened my eyes carefully, I could see that she was already asleep - this was my chance. I moved my head right to her ear as I screamed into it:


"Booooooo!" I screamed a little louder than I thought, because Penny flew out of the bed in shock and landed with the duvet on the floor. 

"Samuel Jones, I hate you!", Penny grumbled angrily as she threw a pillow at me, which had also fallen down with her.

"Say that again", I replied skeptically. "I don't believe you." I lay on my stomach and smiled cheekly down at her.

"I! Hate! You! I mean that very seriously."

"You're so cute when you think you're mad", I breathed softly and came closer to her with my face.

"If you really think that I would kiss you under these circumstances, then you're very wrong!"

"Are you sure?", I asked her as she put sat up to meet me. When our faces were only centimeters apart, my lips touched her lips gently as she put one hand on my neck and the other on my cheek. I was just about to pull her closer to me when she jerked me onto the floor. She turned so that I was on the floor and she was sitting on top of me.

"You didn't expect that."

"Right, I thought you'd kiss me, but I like it down here. I like the view." I smiled at her with a big grin before she lay down next to me on the floor and put my arms around her. 

"My vengeance will come, Jones. Believe me!" She spoke so seriously, but also gently, as she was very tired from her night shift, so she put her head back on my chest and snuggeld up against me.

"Are you no longer afraid that I might scare you?", I asked teasingly and gave her a kiss on her head. 

"If you do that again, I guarantee you we will never sleep in the same bed again! 

"Do we always sleep on the floor? Oh no, I prefer our bed, but for today I love to stay here. Every place is wonderful with the woman I love."

"That's cute", Penny muttered as I ran a hand through her hair. "But don't think that you can get away with it so easily!"
