Who: Starbuck and Kim
When: early Tuesday morning
Where: their room
What: snuggle time!
Eyes moving quickly, back and forth, back and forth under his eyelids, Starbuck was lost in a dream. He was on a beach with his dad, but unlike nightmares in the past which had focused on Bardsley's death, this was a good dream. Starbuck was maybe ten years old. He stormed the waves, his dad right by his side, both men throwing down their boards and beginning to paddle out. It was so vivid. Starbuck could feel the ocean spray on his face. The salty smell filled his senses, making him close his eyes. Unfortunately, when Starbuck opened them in the dream and spotted his father smiling back at him, the nymph opened them in real life as well.
Light was just beginning to filter in through the little gap between the drapes, forming a beam that stretched across the length of the room. Starbuck rolled toward Kim, wrapping his arms around her, his feet trying to find space to move with two dogs taking up a great deal of room at the foot of the bed. They were so big now, and they were also passed out cold.
Starbuck kissed Kim's collarbone, trying to tempt her into waking up. It was rare that they got this alone time in the morning, because Kamea was usually up with the sun, but he didn't hear a peep from the baby monitor.
