Blanket forts

35. 1. "Just get in the fucking blanket fort."

It had been a long day for Sweet Pea, first he had to wake up at the crack of dawn to go on a serpent run and second he wasn't getting home till almost midnight. He felt worse for leaving Veronica at home alone all day, without warning. Usually he'd get a few days or hours to tell her but FP had just called him saying he needed him their now and he didn't want to wake her up.
Sighing heavily he'd finally pulled his truck up into the yard in front of his trailer. He groggily got out messing around in his pockets for his keys. After he'd pulled the key out of his pocket he walked up the small steps to the trailer door. While he was unlocking the door he could see faintly some lights were on inside and the tv was on. Sweet Pea figured Veronica must have just passed out on the couch and forget to turn everything off. He'd be pissed off about it if he wasn't so tired.
Pushing open the door he walked inside and looked to the living room expecting to find Veronica passed out asleep. Instead it was like his entire living room had been covered in blankets. He furrowed his eyebrows looking it over chairs from the kitchen had been moved in to hold up the blankets. Sweet Pea shook his head seeing how the blankets had been tapped to the chairs.
A familiar head popped out from under one of the blankets. "You're home!" it was Veronica smiling brightly.
"What the hell have you done to my living room," he crossed his arms staring down at her.
"I made a blanket fort, duh," she said as if it wasn't the most obvious thing.
"And why did you make a blanket fort?" he asked raising an eyebrow.
"I was bored and you weren't home" she said flatly.
"That doesn't mean you make a blanket fort!" he exclaimed gesturing to the big mess.
"Just get in the fucking blanket fort." Veronica lifted the blanket up higher there was enough room for him to slip in.
"I can't believe I'm doing this," he mumbled kicking his shoes off and crawling into the fort.
"See," Veronica beamed curling up to his side. "it's not that bad."
"Yea Yea Whatever," Sweet Pea rolled his eyes at her, laying back. "I'm going to sleep."
She huffed resting her head on his chest, "Good night than grumpy."
"You're a pain in my ass you know that?" he said looking down at her.
"I love you," Veronica hummed closing her eyes.
"I love you too, princess" he kissed the top of her head, before laying back and closing his eyes succumbing to sleep.
