Tommy rolled out of bed, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. He slipped a T-shirt on before heading downstairs. He saw Jude sitting at the kitchen table, reading the paper while drinking her morning cup of coffee. He walked over and kissed her on the cheek.

"Good morning, dear. Where's Noelle?" He asked, pouring himself a cup of coffee. Jude set her paper down.

"It's Saturday, so she's probably out with one of her friends, shopping and doing other teen things." She turned in her seat to face him.

"So we have the house to ourselves?" Tommy asked with a grin, standing up straight. Jude grinned.

"It's not like we have other children running around the house." Tommy set his cup down and walked over to Jude, pulling her out of her seat and wrapping his arms around her waist.

"Well, we could always change that." Tommy stated, capturing her lips with his. Jude smiled into the kiss. He pulled away and started trailing kisses down her neck, towards her collarbone. Jude laughed, trying to pull away.

"Tommy," She started. He murmured against her skin. "Tommy, honey, love of my life, we can't do this."

"Why not?" He asked, never moving his lips from her skin. Jude closed her eyes, taking in the sensations he was creating all through her body. She put a hand on his chest and tried to push him away.

"I have some things that I have to take care of today." Tommy pulled away, taking a step back. He ran a hand through his hair.

"Have you noticed how we haven't had a moment alone in… forever? It seems whenever we do happen to be alone, someone walks in or one of us has business to take care of." Jude sighed, kissing him on the lips.

"I know, it sucks, but this is the life you signed up for when you married me." Tommy grinned.

"I wouldn't trade it for the world. I just wish we could get some time, you know alone." Jude nodded.

"We will, I promise. I'll make sure to schedule in some private us time." Jude joked. Tommy grinned.

"I'm gonna go take a quick shower; I have to leave in like thirty minutes!" Jude ran up the stairs. Tommy groaned, tilting his head back.

"This business better be extra important."


Aww... poor Tommy! Sorry that this is short. I'm still kind of suffering from writer's block. I know what I want to do with this story, the only problem is I can't figure out how to get the story to start! I don't want to just jump right in, I want it to build up. Oh well. Right now I'm just giving you a taste of where everyone is in their lives now. Review to find out what happens next!
