Theo couldn't help but laugh. He successfully tickled her funny bone and gently rubbed his hand against her nose. "Alright, alright, no more teasing. I’ve gotta go grind for our baby."
Ellinor rolled her eyes, "That's more like it."
Theo lightly fixed her hair and got up from the bed, heading to the closet for his clothes, "You should get up too and grab some breakfast. Let Devin know what you would like to have for lunch; he'll get it ready. We'll have dinner together when I get back."
With the big guy out of bed, Ellinor stretched lazily under the covers like a kitten and responded absentmindedly, "Mhm, got it."
Theo reminded her not to eat anything random when she's home alone, especially cold food.
When they first met, she thought he was cold and didn't talk much.
But now she thought he was quite a chatterbox; he hadn't stopped talking since she woke up, like a dad.
Theo went to the bathroom to freshen up, giving Ellinor's ears a brief moment of peace. She snuggled under the covers, ready to go back to sleep.
Theo came out of the bathroom and saw Ellinor still snoozing away.
He helplessly frowned and headed towards her.
Ellinor was a little drowsy, then she felt her chin being held by a pair of rough hands, and then a warm breath covered her.
She suddenly opened her eyes, pushing Theo away, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet!"
"It's okay. I don't mind." Theo said deeply and kissed her again.
He really liked gradually opening her unwilling lips and slowly exploring her mouth until she started responding.
