Tyrone woke up early the next morning, and he immediately smiled at the beautiful sight before him. He loved it whenever he was the first one to wake up and spent most of his early morning simply dwelling about and staring at Raine who slept like a bedazzling beauty in her sleep. She looked so meek, obedient, and vulnerable.
He sighed. He simply couldn't get enough of staring at her, but he still needed to get up. Quietly and carefully, he released her from his arms before planting a soft kiss on her forehead. He then went to the bathroom for a quick shower and a change of clothes.
Aire was the second one to wake up. She immediately went straight to the kitchen because she smelled something good. She wondered if her Mommy was cooking, only to be delighted at the sight of her Daddy with his apron on, enthusiastically humming while stirring something on the stove.
"Daddy! Did you sleep here?" Aire asked.
Tyrone glanced at her and nodded with a bright smile. "Yes, I did. Good morning, sweetie. Grab a seat at the dining table. I'll be done here in a minute," Tyrone commented as he turned off the stove to ready the table.
"I will wake up my Mommy first then since it's her first day at work. She should be up by now too," Aire volunteered.
"Ah, that's better. Please do it, sweetie," Tyrone agreed. He would've loved to wake Raine up, but it might end up with something more than just simply waking her up. Tyrone shook his head. He was always like a wolf in heat whenever he was around Raine. It had already gotten to the point that he, himself, was starting to question how he was that totally insane for her.
Meanwhile, Aire excitedly ran to Raine's room to wake up her Mommy. She was glad to be with both of her parents like she used to. Ah, she had a lot to tease her parents about once she came back to her era.
Entering the room, she immediately crawled onto the bed. She then leaned down to her Mommy who seemed to be still in a deep sleep.
"Mommy, it's time to wake up. You don't want to be late, right?" Aire murmured near Raine's ear, followed by her pinching Raine's cheeks since her Mommy still wasn't budging.
"Ouch! That hurts dear!" Raine complained, wearing a beautiful smile on her face knowing that those little hands were from Aire. "Ah, you little cutie pup! Come here!"
With a smile, Raine pulled Aire to the bed and tickled the little girl under her armpits and sides, making Aire burst into laughter. She was far too adorable with her crisp giggles echoing throughout the room.
"Stop, Mommy! Daddy's already cooked breakfast, so hurry up and get ready, okay? You don't want to be late for work and get kicked out on this island so fast," Aire chortled, still chuckling.
Raine let her go and said, "Fine. I'll be quick, okay? So go and disturb your Daddy in the kitchen instead."
At her words, Aire nodded before quickly walking out of the room.
Raine had a wonderful smile on her face. "How nice would it be to have this kind of peaceful life all the time," she murmured as she stretched her arms. Waking up with an adorable daughter in the morning and a very reliable husband doing household work and pampering her was truly a dream that she wanted in the future. "Ah goodness… Why can't I just be selfish?"
With a sigh, she got up from the bed. She knew that such a dream wouldn't work out since her father would surely look for her if she ever decided to run away like that. At worst, her dreams would just crumble away, so it was only a waste for her to think about being selfish.
She took a bath and quickly dressed up for work. Tyrone and Aire were already at the dining table by the time she went out, already waiting for her. The moment Tyrone saw her, he quickly stood up from his seat and pulled out a chair for her.
"Ah, you should sleep here from today onwards, Daddy. Only while we stay here on the island, at least!" Aire suddenly commented, making Raine cough.
If Tyrone would sleep in their apartment, then the more they would look like one big happy family, right? Not to mention how many times…
Raine's face turned a deep red at the mental image, realizing how perverted her thoughts had become at that moment! Shaking her head, she immediately removed those thoughts away from her mind and put all of her attention on her plate instead.
Tyrone chuckled and patted Aire's head as he whispered, "Alright, let's do that, shall we? I'm a better cook than Mommy, so Daddy will handle the household work for my sweet vixen and sweetie."
"Ah, you called just me sweetie, so I assumed Mommy is the sweet vixen? But isn't that a bit too long?" Aire murmured. In her era, her Mommy had always complained whenever her Daddy would call her his sweet vixen, saying that it was too long. Daddy still called her that though.
"Hmm… Do you have a suggestion on how I should call Mommy?" Tyrone asked with a grin.
"You're calling her…" Aire immediately paused as her Daddy gave her a meaningful look. She immediately corrected, "Ahm, I think, sweet vixen is cool."
"I think it's too long. How about just calling me by my name, huh? Raine?" Raine snorted.
"My sweet vixen sounds better…" Tyrone insisted.
"Yeah, Mommy. You'll get used to it. It's unique," Aire seconded with a giggle when her Daddy gave her a high five.
'Ah… These two!'
Raine could only shake her head. It's only too bad that she didn't want to be a killjoy in front of her daughter. The two got along well as if they were really a father and daughter duo. Tyrone was obviously enjoying it though. Not that she wasn't enjoying these kinds of light talks as well, but she was just way too worried at the moment. She knew that these moments were just fleeting.
"Let's just eat, guys. We have to go soon. Enough with the bantering," Raine reminded.
The two answered in chorus.
"Aye, Mommy!"
"Aye, my sweet vixen!"
Raine had an awkward smile as she shook her head, staring at her two twits in disbelief as they continued giggling at each other.
