Sunshine ☀️: Hey, where are you? I just woke up and you're gone Everything okay? Charlie
Shortie 🎖: Everything's fine, stop worrying I'm out taking the dogs for a walk I'll be back soon An hour max.
Sunshine ☀️: But that's so long 😭
Shortie 🎖: Tell that to the energiser battery you call a dog This barely wears him out before he's off getting up to mischief again
Sunshine ☀️: He's not mischievous, just energetic with limited options to occupy himself with
Shortie 🎖: Whatever you want to believe 👌 Why are you so insistent about my whereabouts anyway?
Sunshine ☀️: Because I woke up alone?
Shortie 🎖: And what? You thought I ran away or something? 😂
Sunshine ☀️: What? No, of course not.
Shortie 🎖: I sleep with you in the same bed ONCE and now you're being whiny because I wasn't there when you woke up because the dogs need walking I should totally go back to the other room tonight and let you sulk, you big baby 😂
Sunshine ☀️: Shut up, I know how clingy that makes me sound without you making fun of me ☺
Shortie 🎖: You know I could have just been downstairs, right?
Sunshine ☀️: Yeah, but I knew you weren't so I texted you instead
Shortie 🎖: How do you know I wasn't there if you likely haven't got out of bed yet?
Sunshine ☀️: Because I called you and you didn't answer You always answer
Shortie 🎖: I could have been there but had earphones in? 😏
Sunshine ☀️: You didn't bring any with you Said the nature was the best soundtrack you could ever listen to here
Shortie 🎖: I said that when I was 15...
Sunshine ☀️: And I remember 😉
Shortie 🎖: Let's not get off topic, but I'm definitely curious about what else you remember from our kid days Other than waking up alone, what did you need me so urgently for?
Sunshine ☀️: Okay, so maybe I was hoping you'd still be here for other reasons
Shortie 🎖: Other reasons? 🤨
Sunshine ☀️: Yeah, like starting our morning in the best way 😉😏
Shortie 🎖: And there it is. 😏 Best way for who? You benefit more in that situation
Sunshine ☀️: Best way for both of us I can think of a few ways for you to benefit too
Shortie 🎖: Still not convinced it's a valid reason to cut my walk, through the beautiful nature we're surrounded by, with the boys short
Sunshine ☀️: How's this for a valid reason?

Shortie 🎖: I mean, it's a nice view but I've seen it before 🤷🏼♀️ And I did sleep next to it last night
Sunshine ☀️: What can I say or do to get you here faster? Because I'll do it Whatever it is
Shortie 🎖: I'm not into bribery It's literally against my training
Sunshine ☀️: Come on, we go home in a few days so our opportunity to make the most of this is dwindling with each second
Shortie 🎖: And we can't do this at our own places? I thought that was kind of the point of having our own places away from our families 🤨
Sunshine ☀️: I mean, we can and we definitely will, it just feels so different here
Shortie 🎖: How?
Sunshine ☀️: There's no responsibilities that we need to tend to here, like our jobs.
Shortie 🎖: Okay... continue.
Sunshine ☀️: No family nagging us unless they drive hours to get here because we can turn off our phones whenever.
Shortie 🎖: Good point, but that's still only two valid statements At least give me three and I'll think about it
Sunshine ☀️: We can make up for all the lost time we spent denying this
Shortie 🎖: Low blow 😒
Sunshine ☀️: You said three valid statements, so there's your three Are you coming back or am I in for a very frigid shower?
Shortie 🎖: You worked yourself up at the prospect of me saying yes to coming back early while in the process of convincing me to do so? That just makes me want to say no even more 😏
Sunshine ☀️: Please don't 🥺
Shortie 🎖: Needy.
Sunshine ☀️: For you? Hell yes. So, are you coming back or...?
Shortie 🎖: Still going to take me 10 minutes or so to get back
Sunshine ☀️: I've waited years for this, I can definitely wait an extra 10 minutes.
