"Time doesn't heal emotional pain, you need to learn how to let go"

"You sound so good, babe." I cheer on Chris as he performs in the shower.
Sometimes I forget he can sing. Then, he gets in the shower and acts like he's on a world tour.

He keeps singing loudly as I brush my teeth at the sink.

I rinse with some mouth wash and clean out my sink before finishing the rest of my morning routine.

Chris steps out of the shower and I catch a glimpse of his full naked body briefly before he covers up with a towel around his waist.

"Damn right I do." He replies, kissing my cheek.

It's super early as he's getting ready for work. Normally, I'd make him breakfast (or vice versa) and then go back to sleep once the dogs are taken care of, but I feel motivated this morning. So, I'm going to an early Pilates class before running errands.
Today's a little different because Jasmine's hosting her parents and her in-laws so we can't do what we usually would in the mornings. I offered Izzy to hang out but she says she doesn't wake up until noon these days.

I clip half up my wet hair up and start to blow-dry the rest.

Chris comes and stands behind me, making faces in the mirror.

"What are you-" I giggle. "Christopher, you're literally in my video, I'm filming a 'get ready with me.'"

"Can I be in it again, they love me." He boasts, smiling in the frame.

"Your hair smells good." He tells me, staying in my shadow as he shaves his face.

"Nooo!" I whine. "I liked the beard."

He just grits his teeth and flashes a cheeky smile before going to continue to shave it all off.

I cut the camera so I can finish my hair. Spoiler alert: Chris and I got too distracted by his playlist so I forgot to film the rest of my daily morning routine that over two thousand people on TikTok asked to see. Oops.

Chris and I are eating breakfast outside while the dogs run around.

"I can't believe how big they are." I frown, watching Duke and Stevie run around. They're, like, fully grown, it's crazy.

"I'm just happy they don't have any puppies, yet."

I raise my eyebrow at him. "Don't push your no kids propaganda onto them." I tease.

Chris bites his turkey bacon and laughs small. "About that, actually... anything you wanna tell me?" He asks, washing his food down with some tea.

I shake my head no.

"Huh." Chris sounds, sitting back in the chair. "Okay."

"What?" I giggle, seeing his distrusting face.

"Nothing." He chuckles, stuffing his face.

"What's that?" I kid, pointing to nothing.

When Chris turns his head to look, I steal the other half of his bacon.
Cheap shot, I know. He asked me if I wanted a slice and I said no because there were only two left and I knew he'd eat them, but I can't resist.

"Wow." He draws, shaking his head at me.

"I'm sorry." I laugh, pulling my feet from his chair.
