“Finish that and then sleep,” Autumn mumbled, closing her eyes. “If I find out you didn’t sleep, then we’re not going out to dinner until you have slept.”
mOth GIRL COME MORROW I WANT ANOTHER RP WITH YOU
Alex tisked softly. “You still owe me a dinner. Therefore your threat is devoid.”
“Yes, but you won’t get it until you sleep,” Autumn hummed, rolling over so she was facing away from him.
Alex looked at her and poked her back. “I love youuuu!”
“Love you, too, hun. Now let me sleep,” Autumn chuckled, rolling back over to look at him.
Alex poked her nose and smiled. “Okay. Good night.”
“Night, babe,” Autumn chuckled before she closed her eyes again.
(Skip to shopping?)
(Yeeeee.)
Alex stayed up most of the night, but he wasn’t too tired. He just went downstairs when he finished and made some breakfast for the girls. He made himself a cup of joe and relaxed into a chair as the bacon cooked.
Autumn stirred, smelling the bacon even in her sleep. She rolled out of bed, rubbed the sleep from her eyes, and headed downstairs.
"G'morning," she greeted Alex sleepily.
Alex looked up from his mug, smiling. “Morning, baby. C’mere, give me a hug.” He stuck his arms out.
"Did you sleep?" Autumn asked as she walked over and wrapped her arms around him.
Alex closed her off in a hug, leaning his head into her shoulder.
“A little. I wasn’t really tired.”
"Hm… I suppose a little is better than none," Autumn sighed, kissing his cheek.
Alex smiled and kissed her cheek back. “It is.” He didn’t want to admit to his slight lie.
"What time did you fall asleep?" Autumn asked as she pulled back to check on the bacon.
Alex shrugged. “Around four. Woke up at five.”
Autumn turned around and gave him a look. "You only slept for an hour? Babe, you should go back to sleep. I'm just going to take Jillian shopping today, anyway, so there's not much you have to do."
Alex yawned a bit. “Noo! I wanna come with you two.”
“You want to go shopping with a couple of girls? Babe, you’ll probably be really bored,” Autumn chuckled.
“I want to go shopping with my girlfriend and a cute little girl.” He smiled. “Of course I wanna come!”
“You’re cute, babe,” Autumn giggled a bit. “Fine, you can come. But I expect you to go to sleep tonight.”
Alex rolled his eyes. “I do wanna come! I promise!”
“Yeah, yeah. But you are going to sleep tonight if I have to knock you out myself,” Autumn teased him.
Alex laughed softly and hugged her close again. “You wouldn’t!”
“I might. You never know,” Autumn chuckled, kissing him quickly. “But I’m staying up until I know you’re asleep.”
Alex kissed her back, smiling. “Your sleep schedule is too messed up to do that.”
“Psh, no it’s not,” Autumn said, shaking her head. “I bet you our date that I can do it. But you have to actually try to sleep.”
Alex huffed. “I’m not betting our wonderful date! Which you keep putting off…”
“I’m not the one putting it off! Stuff keeps happening!” Autumn exclaimed.
Alex rolled his eyes. “Says the one who is trying to bet it away!”
