Where: Their room
When: New Year's morning
Warnings: References to adult activities
Status: closed/complete
It had been a while since Bruce first suggested that he and Melissa talk about their relationship and what they wanted it to look like. Unfortunately, before they'd had a chance to sit down and have that talk, her son had been sent home and then almost immediately returned with no memory of being here previously. That was a lot to deal with, so he gave her the space she needed to deal with it before pushing for their conversation.
Then the holidays came and he almost brought it up when they exchanged presents, but it didn't feel quite right, so he put it off again. He certainly hadn't expected that they'd end up in bed together after the New Year's Eve party on the docks and, when he woke up the next morning, he knew that they really couldn't put off that conversation any longer. Bruce was not a casual sex kind of guy and he didn't think Melissa was that type either, but things could get very awkward between them since they shared a room and weren't on the same page.
He was a little worried that her being hungover this morning meant that she hadn't been in the right frame of mind to consent last night, so when he returned to their room with coffee and breakfast, Bruce was very nervous.
"Hey," he said, setting the tray down next to her on her bed. "Eggs, greasy bacon, and some fruit to hopefully keep your arteries from clogging."
