This chapter is probably not gonna give you guys any answers, but you do want it to be a long story, right?
Chapter six - Sunshine
The early sunrays were forming lines from the Venetian blinds on the sheets. It was usually no problem for Californian people, they were used to the sun always be there. But this morning, Summer woke up. If it was because of the sun she didn't know. She slowly turned around so she lay on her back, watching the ceiling.
Next to her Seth was snoring quietly and she knew that now wasn't a time to wake him up. Her husband was amazing, he was always there for her and she knew that he would do everything she said at this moment. If she wanted him to wake up, do breakfast to the kids, take them to school and then work all day, he would. Or if she said that she needed him to be with her, he would stay home and try his very best to please her. But today she didn't want him to do anything. She just wanted him to be there. She wanted to wake up with him by her side; she wanted them to eat breakfast together with the kids. She wanted things to be normal, at least for a while.
Summer looked at the clock on the bedside table. It was early, but she knew that she couldn't go back to sleep yet. She decided to get up. Summer took her dressing gown and made her way to the children's rooms.
First she entered Casey's. He was asleep in his bed. Casey was such a nice boy, he always did everything she and Seth told him. He had no problem sleeping and when he was a baby he had been very calm and kind, not wild and yelling as Ava had been. She had been a complicated child and after her Summer wasn't sure if she wanted more kids. But she was glad that she had changed her mind. Otherwise her little baby boy wouldn't be here. Casey were a little of mommy's boy. He was a little shy and loved to be safe in mommy's arms, or daddy's. He was happy to watch when Summer made breakfast or when she was getting ready for a party. He was never bored and he never complained. Seth once said that Casey was as much in love with her as he was. Summer smiled and leaned over Casey to give him a kiss on his head before leaving the room.
In Ava's room everything was pink and the room was filled with Barbie's and princesses. Ava loved to dress up and pretend that she was a princess. She loved that Seth called her his princess. Ava was the most girly child ever. Seth always blamed that on Summer, but she knew that he deep down enjoyed that his daughter was a little princess and girly. Their kids were much like themselves. Ava was like Summer and Casey was like Seth. They were little Summer and little Seth.
As Summer walked to the bed to give Ava a kiss too, stepped on a painting. Ava had painted Seth, Summer, Casey and herself and written "my family" underneath. It was a beautiful painting and Summer got tears in her eyes as she looked at it. It was so sweet, only a kid could make a painting of a family so special. Summer placed it on the table and gave her daughter a kiss. "I love you." She whispered.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Seth opened his eyes and immediately noticed that Summer wasn't there. He didn't feel her smell and he didn't hear her breaths. Seth quickly grabbled his dressing gown and saw that Summers was gone. He ran down the stairs. He didn't know why, but he had become worried when she wasn't laying next to him as he woke up. He thought that something might have happened but when he saw her getting the breakfast ready in the kitchen, he knew that he had over reacted. She looked fine, she was fine.
"Good morning!" Summer said with a big smile on her face. She gave him a passionate kiss to a confused Seth.
"Um...Good morning!"
"What are you doing up this early?" Seth never got up by himself, he always waited for Summer to come and wake him up. Seth knew that these words might turn her mood, but he always told her the truth.
"When I woke up and you weren't there I got worried. I guess I over reacted a bit." Summers smile became smaller and she looked him in his eyes.
"You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine."
"You are?"
"Yeah, for the moment everything's great. I want to spend this day without thinking of it. So, we'll talk about everything tomorrow, okay?" Summer looked at him with serious eyes.
"Sure, if that's what you want."
"It is. And I'm glad that you were worried, but not anymore. In this house on this day there's not allowed to worry."
"Deal." Seth gave in for another kiss. She quickly opened his mouth with her tongue and massaged his with it.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
"So, which one do you want today? The white one or the pink one?" Summer held two dresses in front of Ava. The white one was made of silk and had a light yellow band in the back and the pink one had small white flowers all over.
"The white one mommy, then I'm gonna match you." Summer had a white skirt and a yellow top. Summer, who now was a designer, always dressed neat and sophisticated. She always made Seth, Ava and Casey wear designer clothes and didn't accept everything they wanted to buy. But her style was brilliant and they knew that Summer was a person to trust when it came to clothes.
"Good choice, sweetie." Summer helped Ava put on the dress and a matching pair of shoes.
"Can I have my new buckle, mommy?"
"Sure, it will look perfect today." Summer brushed her daughters long, brown and wavy hair and put the silver buckle which was filled with pearls on the back of her head.
"You're beautiful." Summer smiled at the little girl who looked herself in the mirror happily.
"Daddy says I've got my looks from you."
"Oh, I couldn't possible look as cute as you." Summer said as she started to tickle Ava.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
"Oh, don't our girls look just beautiful." Seth said to Casey as Summer and Ava came down the stairs. Casey laughed as he sat in his fathers arms.
Casey and Seth were also a little dressed up. Seth had a blue shirt and little Casey had a white shirt. He looked so cute.
"Hi, you guys. You're so cute." Summer said kissing them both.
"Mommy, we're not ciuut. Babies are ciuut. We're cool, right daddy?"
"Of course we're cool. Aren't we Summer?" He smiled at her and they both thought that their boy was the cutest ever, or coolest ever as he wanted them to say.
"You're so cool. And ready to go, I assume?"
"Yeah!" Casey and Ava yelled. They loved to go into town and they loved to dress up.
"Okay, let's go everybody." Seth said and wrapped one arm around Summer and led her out to the car. The kids stood already waiting by the garage.
SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Ring! Ring!
The phone had started to ring as they locked the door.
"Hi, Summer, Seth! I hope you are okay. Please call me back, I want to talk about ... you know what. Bye!"
