Our Secret Dream

Birthday Morning

**Small time jump by a couple of weeks** 

Today's the day my baby is turning 22 and although all of us have been acting like we had forgotten all about his birthday we have a fun filled day/weekend planned. It's 8am and we all need to be out of the house by 9am. I've left the boys asleep for now as I am trying to cook pancakes for breakfast. I have as usual done both plain and choc-chip. Only the best for my baby. For the last couple of days Bryan has been telling me he doesn't want anything and all he really wants to do for his birthday is to spend time with those he loves and have some drinks. Obviously I was going to spoil my baby as much as possible, while still making sure that we listened to his wishes.

I plate up each of the boys food, placing a small bottle of syrup next to Chris's plate. I grab the air horn from the kitchen island, spinning around to grab Bryan's plate in my other hand. I head upstairs and into Tristan's room blowing the air horn until he wakes up. I tell him foods ready and he agrees to get Dom up and ready. I'm grateful for the cooperation and support in getting everyone ready and out the house on time. I walk down the hall to Chris's room open the door to see him snuggling up to Tyler. Chris has his head resting against Tyler's shoulder and has an arm draped over his waist. I smile, place the air horn down and then snap a picture for insta later or just so I can tease them on who the bottoms really are in the Chryler relationship. I pick up the horn again and press it down holding it for ten seconds. The boys shoot up from the bed and I burst out laughing. 'Pancakes are ready and down stairs you have an hour to eat, get dressed, put the cases in the car and meet us outside.' 

I turn and leave the room making my way back to my shared room with Bryan. I open the door to see him still fast asleep. I smile and sigh gently while I turn back around closing the bedroom door and locking it. I walk into the room getting closer to sleeping beauty himself, I put his plate down on the bedside table. I lean over him, shaking him gently to try to wake him, I whisper 'Baby' with each shake trying to wake him. When my hushes whispers don't work, I say a little louder 'Wake up Baby, it's your birthday!!' A faint smile tugs his lips and he lets out a grunt pushing his face deeper into the pillow. I lean down and kiss his forehead. 'I guess I'll just eat these then and spend the day with Chris instead of you?' I tease him. I lean away from him as if I'm about to get off the bed when his arm goes around my waist pulling me to him. I let him tug me down onto the bed, my nose inches from his.
'Happy Birthday Bubs! I love you.' I whisper.
'Thanks baby. I love you too.'

I press a passionate and teasing kiss against his lips before pulling away from him. Walking towards the bedroom door.

Skylar: That's all you get baby, we have to be out the door and in the car in twenty so you better hurry up.

Bryan: Tease! It's my birthday don't I deserve a treat?

Skylar: Later my love. All good things come to those who wait.
