I smiled when I set the broom back in the closet, closing the door seconds later. "Let's see... dishes are done, food is stored in the fridge. Fridge is alphabetized and wiped clean. The dining room and living room are spotless... and so are the halls."
I sighed and gazed up. "And it's only been three minutes."
I glanced back over down the hall, finding the light under Suki's door still off.
My smile curled further.
I just turned and made my way back to my bedroom, kicking off my shoes as soon as I entered.
After getting to my closet and setting my shoes on the rack, I slipped off my vest and tie, lightly brushing them off before hanging them in my closet, following with unbuttoning the top half of my shirt and taking the belt off my pants.
I pulled on a pair of shorts and sighed, closing the closet door.
I adjusted the cufflinks of my shirt and then glanced back at the bedroom door.
My smile softened. "Still sound asleep."
I then padded over to the hall, making my way down it before I met Suki's bedroom.
I just opened her door, glancing over at the bed.
She was still asleep, curled up in a ball as she breathed softly, the covers drifting up and down gently with her breaths.
My lashes lowered, and I glanced down at my watch. "I guess I have a few minutes."
I then closed the door behind me and stepped over to the bed, lightly pulling back the covers as she remained asleep.
I got in beside her, setting my cheek on the pillow as I pulled the sheets up to her shoulders.
She was still asleep, breathing softly as her lashes brushed her cheeks.
But I noticed her hair draped over her face, slightly covering her expression.
I just smiled and pulled her hair out of her face, tucking it behind her ear.
Her face etched in annoyance, and then her lashes parted.
I just watched as her eyes remained droopy and glossy, and she blinked lazily.
"Awh," I said then, chuckling softly, "you look so tired." I lightly ran my finger along the bridge of her nose. "Go back to sleep. I'm sorry I woke you."
She just inhaled a little and stretched her legs out, squeezing her eyes shut as she groaned, and then she dropped her arms, staring back at me.
Her relaxed expression made something inside me warm. "You're so adorable when your guard is down," I said then, smirking.
She just opened her mouth, exhaling a yawn as she squeezed her eyes shut.
When she relaxed into the bed, I just scooched forward. "Come here."
