Kate
“Christian,” I called as I crawled out of bed. I kept calling his name while I
descended the stairs until he finally answered.
“I’m in the kitchen,” he told me. The smell of food hit me as I neared the
kitchen.
“What are you doing in here,” I asked him.
“Cooking a little breakfast,” he smiled.

said rubbing my eyes.
