Jacob hummed quietly to himself as flipped the last pancake on the tray. He looked down at his finished product satisfied with the full American breakfast of bacon, eggs, pancakes, and orange juice. Three separate servings for himself, Edward, and Elizabeth.
Once he was done he took all three trays and balanced them on his arm perfectly with the skill of someone who clearly spent time as a waiter.
Still lowly humming he climbed the stairs and headed to Elizabeth's room knowing she'd be up doing her morning readings. Once he reached the door he used his bare feet to knock on the door to his best ability.
"Come in." He heard Elizabeth call. He carefully placed the third tray on his head so he could open the door slightly before putting it back on his hand and pushing the door the rest of the way open with his back. Elizabeth watched him come in with confused amusement.
"Morning, Elizabeth!" Jacob said cheerily with a big smile as stared walking towards her. Placing a tray on her lap as she sat up in her bed.
"Good morning Jacob. What's all this?" Elizabeth said leaning down to smell the delicious food before her. She was clearly surprised to not only see Jacob awake this early but also that he'd cooked.
"This is a thank you for hiring me." Jacob said placing the other two trays down to so he didn't have to balance them while talking.
"Oh Jacob you didn't have to do anything like that. We're happy to have you just as much as you want to stay. Maybe even more so." Elizabeth said rubbing Jacob's arm softly since she couldn't get up and hug him with a tray on her lap.
"That may be true but I still wanted to show my appreciation. I know how much you enjoy reading in the morning and this way you can spend a little more time reading today since you don't have to make breakfast now." Jacob said smiling.
"Well then, thank you Jacob. I assume these other tray's are for Edward and yourself?" She asked and Jacob nodded picking the tray's back up.
"Yep and I should get it too him before they get cold again." Jacob said. Not having microwaves sucked.
"Alright then you go on and bring it to him. He'll need all the energy he can get after all." She said and Jacob gave a puzzled look. Elizabeth chuckled, the look reminding her of a confused puppy.
"Today is the first day of his lessons with you. I imagine the sudden abundance of physical activity will be a lot." She said and Jacob gave a look of realization. He almost forgot what his new 'job' entitled. He and Edward would probably just be horsing around in the backyard again and maybe Jacob would throw in a few actual exercises.
"I guess that is true, huh? Well this will be fun." He said the second part lowly smirking to himself. Elizabeth must have heard him because she raised her hand to her mouth to stifle a laugh.
"Well then Elizabeth hope you enjoy your breakfast and your book." Jacob said as a goodbye Elizabeth returning it as he finally walked out the room. Slightly excited because for the first time he'd get to wake Edward up instead of the other way around. Will see how he liked having the sun on his face first thing in the morning.
He entered their room as quietly as possible placing the trays on Edward's bed since he was sleeping in Jacob's cuddled up to a pillow that Jacob had replaced himself with.
Jacob walked over to the curtain's planning to throw them open but when he saw Edward's peaceful sleeping face he just couldn't bring himself to do it.
Damn his soft heart!
Instead he just walked over to him leaning over to place gentle kisses over his face like Edward had woken him the last couple of days.
