Pulling the blanket up under my chin Chris brushed his thumb across my cheek. " you wanna go inside?? You're shivering" he pulled me closer to him. We were outside on the deck laying on a couch looking at the sky and just catching up on things we missed in each other life.

" no the sun is about to come up" I messed with his chin hair "we can go inside after"

Staring at each other I could tell we were both lost in thought. Bringing my face into Chris chest I sighed "Hey what's wrong?" He lifted my face up

"I'm sorry..."

"What you apologizing for??"

Blowing out a deep breath I held his hand and looked at him " I'm sorry that I felt the need to make you hurt as much as you hurt me. It was childish and tho I had every right to be mad you still didn't deserve to be treated the way I treated you. I should've never strung you along when I was unsure of what I wanted"

"I let you string me along knowing what your situation was because that's how much I wanted to be with you. That's how hard I was willing to work to get you. I deserved everything you threw at me, I was a dick and I was dumb I should've never been out of Zander life for that long so I apologize" he kissed my forehead

We both looked up at snow flakes started to fall "we gonna get sick" he whispered

I glanced at his watch "just 40 more seconds" I whispered as sunlight started to peak through the clouds

Brushing the snow out my hair he pulled me closer as the sun beamed down on my our faces "Hi Chris" I smiled

"Hi baby girl, god I love your eyes"

"I love your freckles" I said through a yawn and buried my face in his chest

"I love you Z"

"I love you too" I felt my body bring lifted up so I gripped the blanket, wrapped my legs around Chris waist and heard Chris open the sliding door. Walking us upstairs he laid me down

"You want something hot to drink??"

"Hot chocolate please" I mumbled as I snuggled up to the covers

Warming the milk in the kitchen, I grabbed one of the gifts I had hidden around the cabin for Zen and scrolled Instagram to waste time. Noticing how caught up I was with her today that I didn't give her a birthday shoutout I decided to do one now even tho her birthday was yesterday

Pouring the milk into our cups and mixing in the hot chocolate I felt hands wrap around my torso and a kiss on the middle of my back "I love you too"

Looking over my shoulder at her she had a goofy smile on her face "post notifications??" I asked

"Post notifications" she nodded while laughing " I miss  Zander" she pouted before picking up her cup.

"High key?? I miss little man too. You need this get away tho. I could see how stress you were when you were dropping him off or picking him up"
