i stare at his handsome face. who needs a tv or something else when you've got his face to look at? i smile, knowing he's mine.
i place the plate on the night stand so it won't get knocked over.
"hey babe, wake up" i say softly while kissing his cheek. he slowly opens his eyes while scrunching his brows, confused about why he's waking up. then he seems to realize i'm here and smiles before he kisses me. he's so adorable without even knowing.
"I made you pancakes! without eggshells this time. or well, i tried, i'm not really sure about the part that has no eggshells" i tell him and i grab him the plate i bought with me. he sits up against the wall and smiles at me. his eyes don't even look at the pancakes. they are just scanning my face the entire time. my beautiful creations will get cold that way. he must eat them.
ethan scootches over a bit so i can sit next to him. i place the plate of pancakes on his lap before i sit down next to him. i lay my head on his shoulder and he places a kiss on my forehead. i love these little moments with him. these make me the happiest.
"you didn't have to, princess" he says with his raspy and tired morning voice which i really adore. "but i wanted to. so go on, eat them" i say with my head still on his shoulder.
he takes a bite. "this is really good, and no crunchy eggshells in the first bite" he chuckles.
"do you want a bite?" ethan holds the fork with a piece in front of me. i shake my head the slightest before i answer him properly. "no, i'm good"
ethan eats the pancakes while i'm just laying with my head on his shoulder the entire time. i close my eyes to enjoy the moment while it lasts, not minding the comfortable that has fallen at all.
"i'm forcing you to eat this last bite of the delicious food you created by yourself" ethan says and when i open my eyes, i see him holding a bite in front of me.
"no, really, e, i'm good" i say and lift my head off his shoulder to look him in the eyes.
"but if you're simply good, you can become great. so take it. i'm not going to be eating it you'll have to take it, otherwise, the food will be wasted" he says stubbornly.
i chuckle at him trying to get his way. i cant give in to this adorable face, so i take a bite. they are still quite good, but not as good as they were directly out of the pan half an hour ago.
ethan puts the plate next to the bed and looks at my face with a smile again.
"ew, now we've shared jerms" i joke. "we shared jerms" ethan asks with a mischievous glint in his eye. i nod, biting my lip trying not to smile.
he grabs my face with both hands and kisses me all over my face; my forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. "how's thats for germs, princess?" he asks me. i giggle as a response.
he lays me down and kisses my lips softly. i give in and kiss him back, but put away and start tickling him. he literally giggles. that has to be the most adorable thing on earth. well, tied with puppies. you cant make me choose between those two. its impossible.
"you're just distracting me from the fact you promised me yesterday we would go to the zoo today. so you're not getting another kiss until you are dressed and really to head to the zoo with me" i stand up from the comfortable bed to prove my point.
ethan grumbles. "i forgot about the zoo for a second. cant we just go to the beach, please, babe?" i stop in the doorway of his room. "you shouldn't have promised me that you would take me to the zoo on that fine saturday then. its really your own fault, you gave into me" i chuckle and head out.
i was on my phone when i heard footsteps. "but how could i not have given into you yesterday? you looked so beautiful in the moonlight, you could've have made me promise anything and i would've told you 'yes' " ethan mumbles while walking into the kitchen.
"aw, babe thank you. i made you coffee so you'll feel slightly better and more energetic" i tell him and put my phone in my pocket.
"you're the best, you know that right?" ethan asks and takes a sip of his coffee. "nope. i don't think i hear that often enough" i joke and lean on the counter.
"well i should tell you more often then. you are literally gorgeous. i love your personality, i love how you are so adorable, i love the way how you remember a lot of stuff, and i love your eyes-" i cut him off by placing my hand on his mouth.
"stop it. you're making me blush" i say. "then it means i'm doing something right" he whispers. his beautiful eyes have been staring into mine since he started talking. i lean in close and kiss him. he tastes like coffee.
"what happened to the no-kisses rule?" he smirks. "oh shut up or you won't get anymore" he laughs making me laugh. we then talk for a bit until,
"ethan, you're not getting out of it this time. we're going to the zoo today" i chuckle. "dang it..it was worth a shot. but please, babe can we just go some other time?" he says. "e, i already bought the tickets so there's no turning back. we're going to see penguins!"
