Boston (Book 2 Rob and Caroline)

Not as exciting as the birthday

I woke up discombobulated, "I'm going to go make us coffee, you stay right here" Rob said leaving a kiss on my cheek. I got up, throwing on Rob's shirt and getting back in bed. "Here, for the best girl"

Rob got into bed next to me, sitting up. I rested my head on his chest. "We have to start really really talking more often" I said, "we can't just talk about work and our families."

"Blondie, that would be a lot easier if we were together more, just to be able to sit down with a bottle of wine and hash things out" Rob said, "we can't exactly do that over the phone."

"I know, but we need to make that our biggest priority when we are together. We have to strengthen our relationship. I want that foundation, before we get married."

"I agree" Rob said, "it would be really good for us."

I smirked at Rob, hungover horny just is different.

He looked at me with that shitty grin. "Thank you for yesterday" he leaned in kissing me.

He peppered kisses down my neck.

I sucked down the rest of my cup, "You want another cup babe?" Rob asked.

"Yeah that would be great" I said. Handing my cup to Rob.

More awake, I watched Rob get up and walk out this time, he looks stiff and soar.

He came back and got back in bed, "Thank you" I pecked him on the lips. "You're walking like you're really soar, are you okay?"

"I'm absolutely fine babe, don't worry about me. I just overdid it. I mean three rounds of sex, a night of dancing, and a hard work out will do that to a person." Rob kissed my shoulder. "I promise I'm fine."

"Babe, you've got to take care of yourself"

"The fun was more than worth the pain" Rob said, "I'll be just fine."

"Rob, I'm serious," I moved over so I can look him in the eyes. "You need to take care of yourself."

"And so do you, now you know how I feel all the time when you overwork yourself" Rob said, "it was my birthday, I overdid myself and had fun. Please don't nag me all day."

"Okay, I'm sorry, I just worry about you, okay?"

"I know" Rob said, "and that's why I love you, because you care so much. Now please come on lean back on me again." I obliged.

"We are going to do what you said, anytime we are together, at least one night we will sit down with a bottle of wine and hash through our relationship, we will also, maybe not every time, but at least every other time, take one night to have a fun date night where we can go have fun together and be silly."

"I think that sounds like a great idea" I said, closing my eyes. "What would you like to do today?"

"I want to lay low, beach day, we'll go to dinner with everyone, but after I want to head back here and have time with you." Rob said. "That's what I want."

"I think I can get behind that" I said setting down my cup of coffee and snuggling in.

Finally ready to get up, I looked at Rob. "Come on let's go into the house" I said getting up, "I have to go over some stuff with scheduling with Sam this morning."

"Not too much working though right?" Rob asked as I put on a pair of athletic shorts.

"No, just some things to go over." I said as we walked out.

Everyone's sitting around the breakfast table. "Sam, we've got to talk about some schedule changes for this summer" I said making myself a cup of coffee.
