~Christian's POV~

That next morning,I was the first to wake up. It was six thirty am and I was watching the sunrise, from the kitchen,as I brewed some coffee.

Last night was weighing heavily on my mind,till I heard soft footsteps on the floor. I looked over,and Astrid walked over. She rubbed her eyes, and ran her fingers through her hair.

"G'mornin Kras." She murmured, stretching her arms up,then hugging me. I hugged her and kissed the top of her head. "Good morning beautiful." I replied fondly.

She softly smiled as I poured us coffee. "Hey... Are you okay?" I asked her worriedly.

She nodded. "I feel more at peace after getting all that off my chest and shoulders last night night." "I really do appreciate you all listening and just.. letting me be emotionally vulnerable like that." "That's usually so difficult for me to do.. but you guys make me feel safe and understood.. so I feel a lot more content." She explained Comfortingly. She sipped her coffee and I hugged her again.

"I'm really glad you're okay. I was honestly kind of really worried about you. But I'm so so grateful you're doing better." "You deserve that so much." I replied softly. I kissed her forehead.

"You're an angel Kras. You're the best friend anyone could ever ask for." Sge breathed.

"I try my hardest." I replied with a soft chuckle.

"Well you make it look effortless." She replied fondly.

I started making breakfast,and she sat on the counter and watched,enjoying her coffee.

"Kras?" She asked softly. "Yes Hun?" I asked.

"I'd never get between you and Mitty.. I hope you know that. I really do love him a lot,but I know you two grew up together and you love each other more than anything." "So I don't want you to feel like you have to be less or stop being affectionate with him cause of me." "I really care about your well being just as much as I care about his and my own. I know you can't live without him." "I just want you to know that. I'd never try to take him away from you. You can always come to me for anything." "like he and I talk to each other for everything, mkay? I love you too ya know." She told me.

I hugged her tight. "I really appreciate you being this honest and compassionate. It really means a lot. More than words,actually. But I'm really grateful you're apart of his life." "And I'll always support you two, no matter what. I'm really grateful for everything you're doing." I replied.

She tilted my head up and kissed my forehead and nose and cheek. "Love you too." She replied soothingly.

"Love you." I replied,as I kissed her forehead.

Just then,Mitty walked in with no shirt and his hair was unbraided and down. He'd probably just showered.
I hugged him and he hugged me. I have him a soft peck on the lips and he softly smiled then kissed me back.

"Good mornin sunshine." He said tiredly but fondly.

"Good morning baby boy." I replied endearingly.

I handed him a mug of coffee as I put breakfast on the plates. He walked over to Astrid,and softly kissed her.
"Good mornin babygirl." He murmured.

"Good mornin my love." She crooned.

I handed him and Astrid a plate of breakfast.

Soon,Clinton joined us.

"Who made breakfast?" He mumbled tiredly,as Astrid handed him a mug of coffee.

"Me." I replied.

Clinton lightly smiled and nodded, and started eating.

After breakfast,Mitty and Astrid did the dishes.

"So what are we doing today?" Astrid asked.

Mitchel held her from behind,with his arms around her hips. "Ya got any plans?" He asked me and Clinton.

"We could go to the beach or walk around town." I suggested.

Mitty nodded. "Sounds good." Astrid replied.

We all got our shoes and a light jacket on and headed out.
