A new day dawned on her, and for the first time with Valentine around, Amabel woke up early that morning. And the best part, Valentine was still in bed with her, cuddling her and wide awake.
"Good morning, hubby~" she cheerfully greeted him as she landed a smack on his cheek, looking quite happy.
"Morning, kitten," he responded as he tightened his hold on her, a doting expression on his face. "How did you sleep?"
"Slept beautifully."
"You are by my side, after all.' She added inwardly while giving him a wide smile.
Smack.
He kissed her on the forehead saying, "Good. Now rise and shine. You have a long day ahead!"
"Yes, sir!" she playfully responded, her eyes sparkling with anticipation for what the day was going to bring.
The couple didn't linger in the bed for long and woke up. After an hour, they were both ready and in the dining room, enjoying a warm breakfast carefully prepared by Aunt Miriam.
