The sun peeked from behind the clouds to brighten his room. 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 kid," My dad told me.
" Morning dad," I replied.
Our apartments and house are now alive and noisy. I made two lunches with our names on it. As my hot chocolate is waiting for me on the island. 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. Both of us went inside the building together. Seconds later I put the lunches in our kitchen. He went into the locker room to change. Of course, I joined him there to put away my bag. The team arrives one by one. Of course, they also head to get changed.
"Good morning Dreamer," Captain America greeted.
" Morning Captain America and Peanut gallery," I replied to them.
They gave me kisses on my cheek.
Within seconds all of us head to the briefing room. I am standing in my corner. They are talking about their mission. Assignments are handed out that morning. My family says goodbyes,
Black Betty is nice and full. The guys were all in the regular places. Conversations are going on throughout the truck. Jokes are cracked and laughter is loud. Luca pulls into their crime scene.
Seconds later Captain Cortez and I are working. Greetings are exchanged between them. Commander Hicks joins her in there. He grabs both the tablet and com. Both of them are in command together.
Black Betty is now full of cops that are sweaty. 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 the food. The team sat in our usual assigned seats at the tables. Conversations are going on throughout our group. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we threw away our trash in the bin.
Kelly is dropped by her mom. Soon after that tutoring begins now. I wandered into our kitchen for a snack. Of course, I sat down at their table observing the class. Both of them are lost in the book in front of the student.
I waited with her by the boxing ring. The team head to the locker room to get their bags. My dad did it for me. Everyone exchanged goodbyes to each other. Hybrid Mike didn't say anything. We talked to each other for an extra five minutes. Our headquarters and parking lot is now a ghost town.
Luca drops her home that afternoon. We put down the bags by door. I went to take a quick bath to change. Meanwhile with Hondo in the kitchen cooking our dinner at the stove. He took out the place settings to put it 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. The team sat in our assigned seats at the table. Our usual drinks are juice for the kids and the normal beers for everyone else. We ate together like one big happy family. After eating we put all the dirty dishes in our sinks.
We broke up into our boy's 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 front of the tv. We shared our favorite tv shows with the group. I walked over to my room in order to change into my jammies and brush my teeth. Later on, I returned to our couch and my favorite spot. I am nice and cozy.
" Night Daddy," I told him.
" Goodnight kid," he answered with a kiss.
There's a quick bathroom break. I jumped into my bed. Pedro is waiting for me. Counting sunglasses time begins right now. I am fast asleep.
Meanwhile downstairs with the team still up watching tv. As the laugher is slowly dying down now. Our tv sets and family room lights are turned off. The team went to their own bedrooms. Everyone else joins me soon in dreamland that night.
