Beach Season

Chapter 4

Whoa, that was fucking hot. It's one thing to have amazing sex but it's another thing to dream about it. All. Night. Long.

You look to your left and Elijah is still sleeping.

He's definitely still sleeping this time. I think. No, he's sleeping. For sure. I think.

You decide you can't wait to find out and snuggle against his warm body. You gently wiggle yourself in his arms and kiss his cheek. He doesn't open his eyes but smiles pulls you tight against his body.

"You smell nice."

"Were you still sleeping?"

"Mm-hm."

"Like, really? Or doing that creepy fake sleepy thingy?"

He chuckles low and smiles. "Really."

"Sorry."

"Don't be."

"I couldn't wait anymore."

You reach down and grab his morning wood. His eyes dart open and a smirk appears on his face.

"Well good morning to you, too. Woke up frisky, did we?"

You speak in a husky voice and slowly start stroking him. "I had an exciting dream."

"About me, I hope."

"I relived our sex from last night. Over and over again."

"What time is it? Do we have time for this before you gotta go to work?"

"We have just enough time for a quickie."

"Lucky me."

He gets up, lifts you out of bed and carries you to the shower. Before you know it, you're bent over, palms flat against the cold tiles and Elijah pounding you from behind. You didn't set a new record but you did pretty good. Still plenty of time left to shower, get dressed, eat the pancakes Elijah made you and get the kids ready.

"Excellent timing, Sir."

"We run a tight ship here."

"Yeah, right," you snort and slide into your flip flops.

"Ready?"

"Ready!"

Elijah wanted to drop you off together with the kids. You have your own car so it would've been no problem to drive yourself but he insisted. And you kinda like that they drop you off on the first day.

"Have fun, sweetheart. I'm sure you'll have a great time."

The nerves are kicking in a little and you're hesitant about getting out of the car. You've been with the twins for nearly nine months and it's not as easy as you thought it would be to leave them behind.

"I'm going to miss you."

"We'll miss you, too. But we'll be back to pick you up at five."

You're working three days a week from 9 to 5. On Monday and Tuesday you're home. You arranged it that way cause Blaze is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays so you'll have those days for the four of you.

"I'll call you during lunch."

"Perfect. Look, there are the girls."

You turn your head and see Penelope and Aria walking towards the car. Matt and Nate are behind them.

"Hey, what are the guys doing here?"

"Wishing you a great first day back at work," Matt beams.

"Awww, you guys." You're getting a little emotional.
