The sun peeked from behind the clouds to brighten their bedrooms. I woke up to get ready. My brother and dad take a couple more seconds to move around. Kitchen bound for me. Minutes after that I made breakfast for us to eat. Coffee is brewing on the counter.
"Good morning, guys," I greeted.
They replied " Morning sis."
Our apartments and house are now alive and noisy. I mixed both his coffee and my hot chocolate. This is copied by our teammates. Our meals are in their final minutes on the stoves.
Breakfast is promptly served at 7:45 California time. Everyone dished out our food to eat. The team sat in our assigned seats at the tables. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we put all the dirty dishes in our sink.
The team grabbed their belongings that morning. Later on, we locked our front doors. All of them went to our cars and trucks. Our apartments and houses are now left vacant. We head to our missions that morning.
Hondo pulls into his spot at work. He went into the locked room to change. The team arrives one by one. Of course, they also head to get changed.
"Good morning Dreamer," Captain America told me.
" Morning Captain America and Peanut Gallery," they replied.
They gave me kisses on her cheek.
Within seconds all of them head to the briefing room. They are talking about their mission. Assignments are handed out that morning. Conversations are the work schedule.
Black Betty is nice and full. The guys were all in the regular places. As for Rocky is filling in that day. Conversations are going on between them. Luca pulls into their crime scene.
Seconds later Captain Cortez is working. Greetings are exchanged between them. Commander Hicks joins us in there. He grabs both the tablet and com. Both of them are in command together.
Black Betty is now full of extremely sweaty and tired cops. It is parked in front of the building. They took their quick showers. A short debrief is made. My family like usual rushed me with hugs.
Lunch is promptly served at 12:00 pm California time. Everyone took out their food from the fridge. The team sat in our assigned seats at the table. Conversations are going on through out our group. After eating we threw away our trash in the bin.
As the team scatters around the building. I am working on my computer in our kitchen. Deke walks in again.
"Kiddo, your brother told me about the photo party later," my grandpa told me.
" yes, that is true," I replied.
Everyone grabs our stuff. Greetings are exchanged between us. Hybrid Mike are the only two that didn't say anything. We talked for an extra five minutes. Our headquarters and parking lot is now a ghost town.
Hondo like always drove us. We put our stuff by the door. I went to take a quick bath. Meanwhile in our kitchen Hondo is cooking our dinner. He took out the place settings to put them on the counter. Seconds later I set our kitchen table.
Dinner is promptly served at 6:00 pm California time. Everyone dished out our food to eat. Conversations are going on throughout our group. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we put all the dirty dishes in our sinks.
We broke up into our boys vs girls groups. Chris and Tan cleared the tables. I wiped every surface with a rag. The guys washed the dishes. Every kitchen is now clean.
Family time continues in Luca's family room. Photos and frames are all over the coffee table. The three big photos are for : Daddy, the guys, and Deke. I replaced the one from Graceland. Mikey took that frame to put it back by the door at my former work place and home.
The group of us cleaned up the mess. Everyone says goodbyes to each other. My brothers gave me kisses in their areas. Duke got into goodbyes too. I bent down to pet him.
Hondo like always drove us. Soon after that I went into my room to change into my jammies and brush my teeth. Later on, I returned to our couch and my favorite spot. We watched one tv show.
" Goodnight Hondo," I told him.
" Night Baby girl," My dad replied with a kiss.
Soon after that I took a quick bathroom break. I jumped into my bed. Pedro is in my arms. Counting sunglasses time begins right now. I am fast asleep now.
The team is still watching tv. Laughter is slowly dying down now. Our tv sets and family room lights. They went to their own bedrooms. Everyone else joins me soon in dreamland that night.
