The next morning came slowly, the sun hitting her directly in the face as she rolled over into the cold empty space Kurtis had left behind a while ago. He had to have been gone for quite some time for the man's body temperature was abnormally high for a human man, and it reminded her of Sam who seemed to have gain some type of warmth similar when he was sleeping over in her bed that one time. He was never as warm as Kurtis was. He didn't make her toss blankets, or furs in their case, onto the ground. He didn't make her wish for him to roll on top of her to replace said fur, and he didn't make her feel upset after he left before she woke up either. He was more of an annoying type of worm than a good one.

...it was embarrassing. Tinting pink at the mere memory of her cuddling up to some stranger like a puppy because of a little heat. She outta be ashamed, but considering he was 'purring' or 'growling' or whatever he was doing she would say he was fine with it. He made no complaints and followed her weird request as if she didn't just ask him to lay on top of her despite barely knowing each other's names. She didn't think she would've liked being hovered over like that, but she did. Slept so good she didn't even notice him leaving. And the moss that rested against her neck cooled her just enough to the point she wasn't sweating.

she wanted to stay in bed she knew that she had promised Kurtis she would be capable of making breakfast for the three of them...she needed to make something baby friendly, and she needed to make a lot to satisfy a man like Kurtis who she was positive would have a huge appetite. So, she climbed out the bed, leaving the furs as they were under the false pretense that she would fix it up nice when she had free time...she wasn't. But she did take a quick peek into Kelly's room to see the baby sleeping soundly in her crib, hopefully she'll sleep a little longer until she gets done with at least a little of what she had planned for the morning, which by the way could barely be called that for the sun was just beginning to filter through the windows. Sunrise had long pass but to get light in this dense forest took a bit for them.

She was stuck with making the quick decision to either bathe first or look through the kitchen for something quick to fix up for everyone.

The kitchen obviously

If it could even be called that. He had a stove, a wood burning one, and no fridge. He also didn't have any type of electricity, the house was littered with candles in strategic places that would allow great lightening when needed, and she wondered what exactly he made them out of. They smelt like nothing, no fragrance, no nothing. Was there a purpose for the scentless candles or did he just not have anything he could add fragrance too...she'll ask later. Her first order of business was fixing up this garden so that she could see what she was working with. It looked big, but maybe it wasn't really that big and she wondered about all the things she could plant. Kurtis claimed to be good at scavenging for things, but she made a guess that they would need to head to town and buy some seeds to get started, maybe even some soil and pots. A greenhouse even for when the winter comes around so that they could have other things and maybe even livestock.

Chickens for eggs, cows for milk, and maybe even a few pigs.

Mostly she wanted the cow and chickens...she had a vision for all this space, and it was going to require a lot of work on both their ends for she didn't know if Kurtis would be fine with going into town...if she would be find going back home for the animals. Either way she didn't ponder on it for too long. She checked one last time on Kelly and rushed out the door to pick through weeds and whatever else might be left in that garden. She wanted to be able to clear everything out for the day so she could make a list of the things she would need to grow for the upcoming season, she'll just buy the other stuff they need.

She had little money in her bank account and since she didn't plan on returning to work, she could always just take it out in cash and spend it on seeds and other stuff that they might need. It would be a good starter for her to just buy a lot of their missing items also like plates and pans to cook with despite Kurtis already having a good bit of it, mismatched or not.
