Taming The Beast

Chapter Two

Breakfast Disaster

The Cabin

The sun peeked through the windows and filled the bedroom with light. The couple on the bed groaned from the sudden brightness that filtered through the curtain-less glass and Bruce pulled the covers over both of them.

From under the blanket Alyanna tickled Bruce's chin, wrapping her leg around around his waist. "Good morning," she cooed, kissing him sweetly.

Bruce hums before wrapping his arms around her tightly. "Good morning to you beautiful."

Alyanna throws the blanket off of them and jumps up in excitement. "We have so much to do today! We cannot waste a minute!"

She jumps off the bed and runs towards the restroom. Bruce's chuckles and turns over to bury his head into the pillow. "Five more minutes," he pleads jokingly.

He was suddenly hit in the head by a towel. "If you don't get up in the next thirty seconds, I'm leaving without you," she calls from the bathroom.

Bruce scoffed, "You don't know where the car keys are."

Alyanna dangles the key outside the door, earning her a growl from the doctor.

As they packed up the car for their daily adventures, Alyanna had a suddenly feeling that she couldn't shake off. Her mind wandered to her suit that remained in her suitcase. She promised Bruce that she wouldn't bring it but something in her gut told her to put it in the car. As Bruce started up the car, she turned and walked back into the cabin, retrieving her compacted device and placing it in her backpack.

When she made it back to the car, Bruce gave her a questioning stare. "Everything alright?"

She smiled reassuringly. "Yes, now where are we going to eat?"

Bruce didn't question it but he couldn't help but feel his hand burn with nervousness.

The door opens with a jingle as the couple walks into the only local dinner that was just a few miles from their cabin. Bruce allows Alyanna to walk through first, who gave him a bright smile in return. The waitress behind the bar greeted them warmly.

"Welcome to Becky's! Have a seat wherever you like!" The pair nodded in thanks before heading towards a booth in the far corner.

"Well this isn't too bad. It's very homey and classical," Alyanna comments, looking at the old style western decor of the restaurant.
