"Stop moving," Cheryl grumbled, squeezing tighter onto Toni's waist and pressing her face into her warm back."I didn't mean to wake you," the older woman said quietly. "Go back to sleep."
"I will. As soon as you stop moving."
"But I wanted to get up."
"Too bad, I'm still sleeping. Now keep your pretty behind still so I can get my cuddle on." She heard Toni chuckle quietly and then shift again to face her. She got a face full of Toni boob and snuggled closer to one of her favorite parts of Toni's anatomy.
"Cher, can I pretty please get up?" Toni began to run her fingers through her hair and the gesture only brought her closer to sleep.
"Why do you want to get up? Can't you just be happy cuddling with a hot, naked woman like most people?" Toni chuckled again. "I didn't even hear your alarm go off."
"It didn't. I wanted to go jogging." Cheryl lifted her head and tried her best to glare through squinted eyes. "What?"
"You want to go jogging? Right now?"
"Yes. I told you I wanted to get back into it."
Cheryl groaned and stretched. "Okay, fine. Abandon me in my time of need." She felt a kiss being placed to her forehead before the chill of the comforter being lifted hit her naked body. She sat up and watched the back of Toni's naked body vanish into her closet. She looked over at the clock and immediately regretted it because it was too early to life. And now she couldn't go back to sleep, especially not with the thought that Toni wasn't home.
"Hey babe!" she called out.
"Yeah?" Toni said, poking her head back out of the closet.
"I'm going with you."
"Jogging? Why?"
"So I can see what all the hype is about. And because now I'm awake and I have nothing to do."
"Then why don't you just watch TV or cook breakfast or something?"
"Is there some reason you don't want me going with you?" she questioned with her arms crossed over her chest.
"Of course not, baby. I just know you don't particularly like anything remotely athletic. And I don't want you to struggle to keep up with me."
"Excuse me Toni, but I am all about athletics and an active lifestyle."
Toni gave her a 'seriously?' look and she scoffed. She'd show her. She stomped over to her closet and dug out a pair of comfortable underwear and a pair of running shorts that most likely belonged to her wife. She slipped them on, a sports bra and tank top, and a pair of ankle socks. She was excited to get outside and show Toni that she could kill this jog. Now, all she had to do was brush her teeth and find her stupid left sneaker.
*****TWENTY MINUTES LATER*****
"Stop, please dear God, stop," she panted, bending over and resting her hands on her knees. The room was spinning. Wait, she wasn't in a room, she was outside. So the world was spinning.
"Baby, are you okay?" Toni said, rushing to her side and resting a soothing hand on her back.
"Yeah, I'm great. Just...need some oxygen." She straightened up and held her hands behind her head. They had barely just started and she was already dying of exhaustion. To be fair though, they started on a hill which she wasn't prepared for. It was something she should've known because their house was at the hilled part of their street and they were only at the park across the street. The puppy she decided to bring along at the last minute was tangling his long leash around her legs and one step would send her plummeting to the ground.
