Daniel's POV

I woke up to my wife's soft body covering mine. She was still sleeping peacefully with her head on my chest and her arms wrapped around me loosely.I smiled softly as I took my hand from her waist and started playing with her hair.

"Mmm," she stirs in her sleep. "Quit it." She mutters, slightly picking her head up and turning it to the other side.

"Good morning Bunny." I tease her.

"Morning." She mutters back, yawning loudly, before sitting up and stretching out, giving me an unobstructed veiw of her breast.

"Do you feel okay?" I ask.

In response she gives me a lazy smile and then lays back down on my chest. "I feel hungry."

I chuckle, continuing to play with her hair dispite her protest. "Well then let's take a bath and order room service."

"Okay." She mumbles, making no attempt to sit back up.

"Umm, babe, you have to get up to take a bath."

"Carry me." She demands simply, making me roll my eyes.

"Wait here you little brat." I huff playfully, gingerly rolling her off me. "Order breakfast while I run the bath."

"M'kay." She mumbles, sitting up again with the covers wrapped around her this time, I watch as she picks up the phone and presses some buttons.

"Tell them to take their time." I instruct, walking away and into the bathroom.

I fill it with the bath stuff they provide, before venturing back into the bedroom.

"Okay... thank you." Elena hangs up the phone and then turns to me. "They said it'll take an hour for our order."

"Fine with me." I say bending down to lift her up in my arms.

"Hey!" She protests. "Put me down."

"Nope." I tease her, walking us to the bath that's almost full.

"The water isn't even done yet." She pouts. "Let me sleep five more minutes."

"No." I object again with a smile. "You can go back to sleep when I leave for my meeting."

"But then I'll have to get ready to go out with Astrid afterwards." She counters

"Well then you'll just have to be up like the rest of us." I smirk. "Now stop complaining before I drop you."

"You wouldn't dare." She calls my bluff.

And she's not wrong. I wouldn't dare drop her on this hard floor, where she can hit her head. I would never do anything to hurt her... unless she asked me to in the sanctity of our bedroom.

I roll my eyes at her before placing her into the tub. "Is the water okay?"

"Mmm." She hums with a smile. "You're not gonna get in?" She looks up at me with big eyes.

"Move up." I smirk at her before climbing in behind her. I settle back and she leans her body against mine, turning her head so that it's laying against my chest. "You comfortable?"

"Yep." She replies contently.

"What did you order?" I wrap my arms around her so that resting just underneath her breast and lay kisses on her forehead.

"Waffles, eggs, bacon for you and some strawberries for me." She lists off.

"You need to eat some meat too."
