The sun was just over the horizon when JR eased out of bed to avoid waking Elyssa. They'd had a stressful couple days and she'd wound up with a bum ankle on top of already being almost five months pregnant with twins, he wanted to do something to surprise her (and keep her off her feet if she didn't have to get up) and decided on providing breakfast in bed.
He went downstairs as quietly as he could and took the dog for a walk to do his business before coming back and getting started. It didn't take long after that for the smell of pancakes and sausage to waft their way through the house as he cooked. Soon he had a tray with a plate piled high with flapjacks and several sausage patties, a warmed bottle of syrup on the side along with a cup of decaf and a glass of orange juice.
Coming back upstairs he looked in sanctification at the sight of Elyssa drowsily blinking her eyes open, stomach rounded with their children. Life really couldn't get much better, and he tried not to think of recent events.
"Good morning gorgeous," he called out softly as he made his way into their bedroom with the tray. "I brought you something."
