We all fell asleep in the living room after hours of watching a variety of movies from Gone in the Wind to Jewels to Mamma Mia to Grease 1-2. With junk food wrappers all around our sleeping bodies after having been in a food coma. It's our ritual that we always love doing and it's always exhilarating and slept in til I was awakened by a kiss from Will who normally let me sleep in while I rested on the couch while glancing at my heavenly physic.
"Morning my Clairicat, how'd you feel after the siesta?"
"Jubilant." I reply, still half asleep. As I lay my head on the pillow. He just laughs.
"Awe my exquisite girlfriend wants to sleep longer." He brush petting my head with tender loving care that makes me melt like butter. "You're so precious when you sleep like my own sleeping beauty." I retort snickering as I face him smiling like when the sun kisses the sky in the Twilight. "You're my sunshine."
"That's the cheesiest line ever and mostly overused but I love it always." I say as I slowly sit up on the couch stretching.
"I know it's just my way of showing you my love of affirmations whether it's words, cards, touch, acts of service, quality time, etc." I smile as i rest my head on his chest cuddling while he rambles on with the endless sweet nothings. I watch Izzy make breakfast for us.
"Smells like love in the morning."
"Anyone care for bacon, pancakes, waffles, eggs, and my secret blueberry muffins." Izzy exclaimed as we walked into the kitchen.
"You mean the recipe that I taught you, Iz." I tease her lightly which receives laughter.
"You're right it is yours but I added something else to it so it improved."
"Uh-huh. What you add?"
"Um it's a secret."
"A secret. Really now. Isabelle Cheryl Henderson. Seriously."
"Oh look Iz, being called by their full name this time." Will snorts.
"Okay. Okay. You've caught me. It's just something that might improve it."
I took a bite out of the blueberry muffin which was scrumptious with the savoury taste of chocolate and berries.
"Mmmm."
"Right."
"Okay you won. It's new and improved with mouthwatering with a pinch of vanilla too." I quip.
"So I can call it The Steelson."
"Yes. Perfect. The Steelson is our improved recipe for us which no one will ever know besides us three." We nod in agreement as we consume the meal.
"To the Steelson." We cheer our new creation.

Cleaning up the living room afterwards was fun especially after a waterfall shower and steamer which always invigorates me in the best way."Our weekly ritual that consists of junk food and movies."
"The best thing ever."
"Agreed." Picking up the trash and disposing in the bin outside in my hair in a messy bun and a few strands in my face. "The best of the activities that's stupendous." As we fall in sync on the couch after cleaning.
"Whew buddy." I say wiping my hand over my forehead without breaking a sweat. I get it I could easily use my powers to finish by myself but I was taught to try not to use them especially when Will and Izzy who knows about very little about and just assumes I'm like a magician who's really good at pulling candy from behind the ears. But with them I actually enjoy being a weirdo because normal is an insult to me.
