Restoring the faith

Setting myself up to fail

Friday....

I loved Friday's, the day before the weekend. I was laying in bed with an arm over my tummy and a Greek god asleep beside me.

Hey life is good!

Today I was going shopping with Kate, for some lingerie cringing at the idea.

Also bikinis for the BBQ tomorrow, she was wanting one to capture Mr Goodwin's eye.

Once we were back from California I got a brace for my bed and fixed it myself. It was a temporary measure until we were in a season break and I knew I wouldn't miss the delivery for a new one.

I slipped out from under Zak's arm and found out some clothes. I had picked out a black floral skater skirt, a black tank top with a black cardigan and tights with black thigh high socks which looked good with my ankle cowboy boots. It was black black and more black but my colourful personality and language made up for it!

Pampering and washing myself I hopped out the shower and changed before getting myself ready.

"Brittany?" Zak called out. I poked my head out from the ensuite and smiled at him.

"Hey you."

"Nooo.. Why are you dressed? Today was snuggle day!" He whined.

"Uh no, today is grocery shopping and I'm going out with Kate."

"Cancel, let's just hang out and watch Netflix in bed all day."

"That's real lazy Mr Bagans. Besides Gracie will need walking." I answered as she lifted her head at her name.

"Isn't that right Gray? Tell daddy to stop being lazy and get his butt up!"

I went back and put my makeup on, leaning close to the mirror I did my mascara carefully. After I did I stepped back and checked my eyes. Perfecto!

"You don't need that." Zak spoke making me jump. He leant against the door frame and I could only presumed he watched me.

"It's nice of you to say that but I think I do."

"You don't. But you wear it for yourself and I get that. But you're beautiful without it." He answered walking behind me and putting the shower on.

I looked at him as his back was towards me, I could just come out with it.. Just tell him how I felt?

No...

"Thank you."

"For what?" He asked turning around.

"For that compliment." I sprayed some perfume and turned giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"Oh.. Oh. Hold on a minute." He dived into my neck sniffing making me giggle.

"Oh! You smell good!" He smiled letting me go. I put my hair up into a high ponytail and secured it with a hair tie.

"I'm going now, don't burn the house down while I'm gone and remember to go grocery shopping otherwise you won't be having a BBQ at yours tomorrow."

"Yes Brittany." He sighed.

"Make sure you lock the door." I called leaving the bathroom I went across the bedroom and picked up my phone before.

As I turned I walked into his chest and his arms engulfed me quickly. Someone was super clingy today?!

"Have I told you how beautiful you look today? Who you really meeting?" He asked letting me go.

"Kate... For shopping and lunch."

"Nobody else?" He asked sitting on the bed.
