Taylor's POV

I woke up to noises from downstairs, groaning quietly as the morning sun shone onto my pillow and tickled me.

I sighed feeling the empty bed besides me. Travis had already gotten up apparently so I rolled out of bed by myself. I grabbed the silky robe thrown over the armchair in the room and slipped it around me, trying it together in the front.

I didn't remember falling asleep naked but I grabbed a pair of knickers and slipped into them, and adjusting the robe on top so nothing fell out before I slipped into my pair of comfy shoes with my letters on it.

I smiled softly wiggling my toes in the warm shoes, smiling at the red leaves outside the window on the large maroon tree smiling at the little fire buzzing in the antique fire place.

Another sound came from downstairs, laughing and chattering and a little smile crept onto my face. I went to the bathroom quickly and washed my face, pulling my hair up into a bun before descending down the stairs towards the kitchen, smiling at the scene before me.

Travis was in a nice dark green sweater and some sweats, wearing an apron that belonged to me with little flowers on it as he flipped the pancake he was making, humming along to the quiet radio station in the background.

A little laugh echoes through the room as he dipped his finger in the batter and tried it, and even though I couldn't see him I just knew he was laughing too.

"Okay babygirl how do you want your pancakes?" he asked, flipping the pancake one more timbe before sliding it onto a platter, a little girl's voice answering him from the toddler sitting on the kitchen counter.

"I wan chwocla chwip daddy!" she squeaked clapping her little hands together joyfully, her blonde little curls held together with a red bow, as she cooed at her dad. She was in a little pajama with pumpkins on it and tried to help him by grabbing the giant pack of chocolate chips, the same ones Travis loves so much in his pancakes.

"Chocolate chips it is for my sweet girlie" he grinned, sprinkling them over the pancake along with some chocolate sauce making the little girl squeal happily.

I watched the both of them smiling as little feet rushed down the stairs, her brother sprinting down towards the delicious smelling pancake. He had grown so much, already reaching to my upper arms and God he just seemed to be growing every day.

"Travis Austin Kelce slow down you're going to break an arm one of these days" I laughed and the 11-year-old gave me a sheepish grin "sorry mom" before rushing towards the pancakes.

Adult Travis turned around, giving me a grin and beckoning me towards him before pulling me in by my waist into a gentle kiss, wrapping his arms around my waist, kissing my neck gently making me giggle.

The boy groaned "Mom, can you stop please its nauseating to watch that" he complained making the both of us laugh softly.

"Listen buddy I get the once in a lifetime chance to be with your mom and I'm going to appreciate it and show her how much I love her so no one else will snatch her away from me which of course I'm never going to let them even try." he grinned peppering kisses all over my cheeks.

"oh and its not unmanly or weak, in fact look at her, she loves it, I love it, nothing wrong with it." he smirked proudly pulling me closer and spinning me around again to plant a gentle kiss on my lips.
