Colossal Damage

28. Breakfast at the Daltons

Ring ! Ring !

I'm startled awake . I groan and throw the alarm clock across my room . I move to get up and stretch but I'm held back . I look down to see a caramal arm drapped around me . I follow that arm all the way up to its still sleeping face . Carter fell asleep in my bed . Carter fell asleep in my bed . His hair is a mess as it sticks to his forehead . How is he still asleep when my alarm clock who is in time out in the cornor of my room just made noise .

I stir in his arms to try and get up but I'm pulled back with so much force into his chest .

"5 more minutes ." He complains when I try to move again .

"No , we're going to be late ." I lift his arm with a fight .

As soon as I'm out of his reach I bolt for the shower . I shower super quickly because we have to get to Carter's house for him to get ready too . I come out to find him sitting on my bed .

"What you wearing today ?" I look down at myself in just a towel and I glare up at him . He stands and walks to my closet rubbing sleep from his eyes .

"Wear this today ." He pulls out a red off the shoulder summer dress that reaches just at my knee . I grab it from him a shoo his out of my room .

"Are you decent ?" He calls from the other side of the door . I curse at him for choosing this dress as I fight with the zip .

I sigh ,"Could you please help me ?" I hear the door creek and he steps towards me . I motion to the zip and his fingers come up to brush aginst the bare skin making me shiver . He lifts the zip slowly occasionally brushing my skin . Once it's up he runs his fingers down my exposed shoulders and his hands land on my infinty charm . I smile down at it .

"She is not all that bad you know ..." He sighs and lets it go .

"You should leave your hair loose , today ." He loosens my wet hair for me and I make a side path . I turn to him and he gives me an approving smile . I take a pair of black sandals and slip them om my feet . I removed the bandages in the shower . Carter had taken out the glass in the cuts last night .

"Whats for breakfast ?" He asks me . I nod to the fruit bowl and he disagrees with me . I point to the cereal and he makes a digusted face at the CornFlakes .

"Let's go to my house now ." He disables the alarm and grabs my bag for me . He takes the keys and moves to the drivers seat .

"I'm home !" He say leading me into his house .

"Catoooooo !" A toddler in her diaper comes charging for her brother .

"Is the bum clean first ?" She wiggles her bum then nods . Carter picks her up and she wraps her arms around him giving him the biggest hug her little figure can manage .

"Pa-is ." She notices me when she is done snuggling Carter .

"Pah -is !" Kalem smirks in my direction as he makes his way down stairs .

"Yum !" I call back to him . We fist bump and he gives his brother a punch in the ribs .

"Good morning Mrs Dalton . I'm so sorry for keeping Carter last night . I wasn't feeling -" I begin .

"Good morning Paris , and I said you can call me Sandra." She brings me into a hug .

"Carter called after he took you home , so no worries . As long as he was out of trouble ." His mom smiles warmly at me .

"I hope you're feeling well ."

"I'm okay now , I just had a little meltdown and broke a mirror hence the cut hands ." She glances at my hands and pulls me in for another big hug .

"Dad ! Carter's girlfriend is here ." Kalem calls for his dad . Carter nudges Kalem for his choice of words .

"Morning Mr Dalton ." I wave at him . But I get pulled into for a bear hug .

"Great morning to you too Paris ." He lets me go before he squeezes my brains out .

"Okay good bye family !" He passes every single on of his kids and places a kiss on their cheeks . The boys of course wipe it off instantly . He kisses my forehead before he walks out too . I stand there stunned but Nova screaming my name snaps me out of it .

"Pa-is ." She stretches out of Carter's hold for me .

"Hi there Nova ."  I say to her when she is in my hold . I tickle her bare sides and she wiggles in my arms giggling . There is just something about a baby's giggle .

"I'm going to shower quickly ." Carter bolts upstairs .

My hair is in trouble with Nova as she pulls at the springy curls . I tickle her again as I make my way to the lounge . I sit besides Kalem who is tying his shoelaces .

"So did Carter finally ask you out ?" I freeze at his question .
