Hi, I'm back (a bit sooner than I had planned!) I had an idea last night and have been thinking about it all morning, so I decided to write it. I may not be as quick to update as I was with Masks but I will do my best.
For context this story is set about 3 years after the end of Masks, Georgie and Charlie are married. Charlie is a teacher and Georgie is a carer.
Hope you enjoy!
Chapter one
Georgie opened the front door carefully and slipped inside, closing it as quietly as she could behind her. She sighed as she took off her coat and hung it on one of the hooks in the hallway, relieved to be home. It had been a long shift and she was exhausted.
Once she had slipped her shoes off she crept up the stairs, making sure to avoid the creaky ones. She didn't want to wake Amelia up and had become an expert at avoiding anything that made noise when she got home from a night shift.
She breathed a sigh of relief as she got to her own bedroom and listened, but heard nothing but the sound of Charlie snoring. Amelia was still asleep. It was still dark, although she knew that within the next half an hour the sun would start to come up and then no doubt Amelia would be awake and ready for the day. She just wanted some time with Charlie, just the two of them, before he had to get up with Amelia. She loved her job now, but it meant that she appreciated the nights she was able to sleep with Charlie even more. Often in the week she was at work during the night and he was at work during the day, so there was about an hour in between her arriving home and him getting up for work, and at the weekend if he had to get up with Amelia they had about the same. The long summer holidays were her favourite as he wasn't in a rush to get up.
She pulled her uniform off and climbed in to bed in just her underwear. She felt her tired muscles relax as she slipped under the sheets and cuddled up to Charlie's warm body. He stirred and slipped his arms around her as she turned her back to him and closed her eyes, enjoying the warmth of his body against hers.
Georgie slept for a couple of hours and then woke to the sound of birds singing outside the bedroom window. She rubbed her eyes and glanced at her bedside table; it was 8am. She rolled over and was surprised to see Charlie still beside her.
'Morning.' He whispered, his voice thick with sleep. 'She's still asleep, can you believe it?'
'Really?' Georgie whispered back, turning towards him. 'This never happens.'
'I know, right.' He whispered, planting a kiss on her lips as his hands skimmed her hips. 'Maybe we should make the most of it.'
'Mmm?' Georgie mumbled with a smile. 'And how do you suggest we do that?'
'I think you know how.' He grinned, and then rolled her on to her back, pinning her down by her wrists as he kissed her.
