*Next day
Today Cleo had to go back to work but yesterday she spent as much time with the boys and I as she could.
I had just got up and I wanted to cook her something for her before she got up. I got outta bed, went into the bathroom, did what I needed and went into the kitchen. I pulled out the breakfast we supposed to cook yesterday and started cooking it. While cooking I was playing some soft music. About 15 minutes I was done. I went to the guest room the kids were in and woke them up. I sent them to do their hygiene stuff then I headed upstairs to wake Cleo up. I climbed on the bed and started kissing all over her face.
"Wake up..." I said softly
"Mmm-mmm..." she said pulling the cover over her head
"Baby you gotta get up..." I said rubbing her butt
She didn't even react.
"What time you go to work??" I asked
"11..." she muffled from under the cover
I looked at the clock on her nightstand and it was 9.
"Come eat your food then you can lay back down..." I told her
"Food..." she said removing the cover from her face
"Yes food..." I said laughing
She sat up while rubbing her eyes.
"Go do what you need and I'll be downstairs..." I said before kissing her forehead
We both got out the bed, but she went into the bathroom and I went downstairs. The kids were sitting at the table on their iPads. I went to the stove and started fixing their plates. I sat their food in front of them and fixed them some OJ. Cleo came, told us GoodMorning and sat down. I fixed her food, took it to her and her drink.
"Thanks baby..." she said smiling
"You're welcome..." I said before pecking her lips
I got my food and drink then sat at the table. We started eating as the kids and Cleo talked. Once everybody was done, the kids went into the room to finish a movie they say they were watching. I started cleaning and washing dishes. I felt arms wrap around me. I turned around and Cleo was standing there smiling.
"I thought you wanted to lay down until it was time for work??" I asked
"You got me up now..." she said pulling me into hug
"I like being in your presence..." she said in my neck"You do??" I asked wrapping my arms around her
I felt her nod in my neck.
"I like your presence too..." I said squeezing her tighter
She let me go then kissed me before heading upstairs. I finished cleaning then went upstairs. She was laying across the bed and I got in top of her.
"What kind of work your doing today??" I asked
"I'm working on writing a new web series and I'm in the process of doing season 2 of Queerious..." she said
"Oh okay" I asked
"You've been hella busy, huh..." I said looking at her"Yeah, I have. If I knew y'all were coming I would've asked for some time off on writing and editing..." she said
"It's okay. We will be here when you get back..." I said smiling at her
"I'm going to ask to get tomorrow off cuz I wanna spend time with y'all. Maybe take y'all out for the day..." she said
"Okay, we'll like that..." I said
