Sorry for taking so long to update! And thanks for all the reads/reviews! And thank you to the guest for this idea!
"Morning, babe." Shay said as she stretched and threw an arm onto Troian's thigh. That had been their weekend morning ritual lately; Troian woke up before her, brushed her teeth, and then came back to bed and sat up and read quietly, waiting for her fiancée to wake up.
"Hi, gorgeous." Troian said with a smile, setting her book down and slinking down into the bed so she could lay semi on top of Shay.
Shay smiled sleepily as Troian leaned forward gently and connected their lips sweetly.
"How'd you sleep?" The brunette asked with a smile and a kiss to Shay's cheek.
"Really well, thanks. I like waking up with you here. How did you sleep?"
"Great, actually. And I've only been up for about 45 minutes." She said happily as Shay squeezed her leg softly.
"Good. How about you take me to breakfast and then we check out the farmer's market?" Shay suggested as Troian smiled and nodded.
"That sounds like the perfect day." Troian said honestly as Shay stretched again and threw her arms around the brunette's shoulders.
"I just need to get changed, and I'll be good to go." She said with a smile as Troian kissed her one more time.
"You do that, I'll be waiting." She said, pulling Shay into a hug and then releasing her, encouraging her to get up and get ready for the day.
Shay had gotten up and was in the bathroom when Troian heard her phone vibrating on the bedside table.
She quickly grabbed it and smiled when she saw that it was her mom calling her.
"Hi, mom." She said happily.
"Hey, T. How are you doing?" Her mom's husky voice floated through the phone, bringing a smile to Troian's face.
"I'm good, how are you?"
"I'm good. I was just wondering if you and your lovely fiancée wanted to get together for dinner or something sometime?" She asked happily.
"We'd love to. We were actually just about to head out to do breakfast and then swing by the farmer's market if you're interested in joining us."
"That sounds perfect, actually. I'm at a crossroad with this new book I'm writing, so I could do with a break. When are you planning to leave?" She asked curiously.
"Whenever you and Shay are ready." She said with a smirk, hearing Shay singing quietly to herself in the bathroom.
"I'm ready whenever that beauty is." Deborah said sweetly, causing Troian to smile.
"We can pick you up if you want?" Troian offered kindly, knowing that her mom lived only 15 minutes away from her.
"That'd be great, baby."
"Perfect. I'll text you when we're on our way?" Troian asked.
"Sounds great, I'll see you in a bit!" Deborah said before hanging up the phone happily.
10 minutes later, Shay walked out of the bathroom with a smile on her face.
"Were you talking to someone a few minutes ago, babe?" She asked, sitting on the edge of Troian's bed.
"Yeah, my mom called. She's going to join us today, if you don't mind." Troian said with a small smile, hoping that her fiancée wouldn't mind.
"That sounds great! I haven't seen Deb in a while; it'll be nice to catch up." The tanned woman answered without even thinking twice about it.
"Have I told you that I love you yet?"
"Not today, no." Shay said with a big smile.
"Well I do love you, and you're incredible."
"Ditto, Bellisario, ditto. Anyways, I'm ready when you are." She said, patting Troian's thigh before she stood up and turned back to the bed to help Troian get up.
"Just need to throw on some jeans and shoes and I'm good." Troian said, kissing Shay's cheek on the way to her closet.
"Are we picking your mom up or is she meeting us there?" Shay asked as she slipped on her shoes.
"We're picking her up." Troian said as she came back into the room, hand extended for Shay to grab, ready to go.
"Cool. You ready?"
"Yeah, let's go."
"T, you look great!" Deborah said as she hugged her daughter, who had gotten out of the car and came to knock on her door.
"Thanks, mom. It's good to see you."
"You, too, sweetie. And Shay! Look at you, more gorgeous every time I see you." She said honestly, bringing in her future daughter-in-law for a strong hug.
"Thank you, Deb. It's great to see you, it's been way too long!" Shay said with a big smile.
"That it has. We should make this a monthly thing at least."
"That sounds perfect, actually." Troian said with a happy smile as Shay agreed readily. "Let's get on our way then! I'm ready for some breakfast."
"This one, always hungry, yet so skinny." Deb said with a smirk as Shay smiled happily.
"Ain't that the truth?" The tanned girl replied as she hopped in the back of Troian's car, letting Deb sit in the front.
"Alright, you two, enough about my eating habits. Breakfast first and then we can look around the farmers market?"
"Sounds good to me, T." Deb said happily as Shay agreed from the back seat.
"You know, I've always thought it would be kind of cool to have a goat just hanging around the backyard." Shay said as she pet a baby goat that was in a little pen at the Farmer's Market.
"Don't even think about it, Mitchell. I can get on board with a dog, but not a goat." She said as Deb laughed from behind them.
"You two are adorable." She said shaking her head affectionately as she picked up some flowers that were in a bucket filled with water.
Shay and Troian looked at each other happily before Troian kissed her quickly on the cheek.
"Mom, do you and Nick maybe want to come over for dinner at some point this week. I could find a day where I get off early and we can all make pizzas or something?" Troian suggested as she and Shay picked out certain fruits and vegetables from one of the vendors.
"That sounds great, T. I'll talk to Nick once you let me know what day you're free. Will you be there, Shay?" She asked happily as Shay looked at Troian.
"It depends on my schedule, but I'd love to go." She said as Deb smiled happily and squeezed her arm.
"Well I hope it works out for all of us. You could invite Nick's girlfriend too if you wanted, T." Deb suggested as Troian smiled happily.
"Yeah, that's a good idea. I've been so busy lately that I haven't had any time to get together with him and Sarah."
"That's fine, honey, I'm sure he understands." Deb said encouragingly as Troian shrugged.
"Hey Troi! You should read this article." Shay suggested as she handed her phone to Troian later that night, who took the phone slowly. "My manager just sent it to me."
Troian laughed when she saw the headline, "Bellisario and Mitchell seen gallivanting through the Farmer's Market with an older, unidentified female. This unknown person looked somewhat older than the girls and was seen being very affectionate with Troian. I wonder what Shay thinks about that..."
"Seriously? There must be literally nothing else for these gossip sites to report on." Troian said, still slightly laughing as she handed Shay's phone back to her.
"Yeah, who knows where they come up with this information." Shay said, linking their fingers together after she finished her tweet.
Why would I worry about T.B. and her MOTHER being adorable today? They're both incredible people. Tabloids sometimes…
"So Shay, how do you feel about this lady being affectionate with me?" Troian asked jokingly as her fiancée laughed.
"Since she's my future mother-in-law, I think I'm okay with it." Shay said, kissing Troian's hand softly.
"She really loves you, you know?" Troian said proudly as Shay smiled.
"I know. And I love her too, she brought an incredible person into this world." The tanned girl said with a smile. "So Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones tonight?" She asked as Troian turned to her with a big smile.
"This is why I'm marrying you. You're literally the best person ever." Troian said as she stood up and slipped a Breaking Bad DVD into the DVD player and turned on the TV before she went back and curled up with Shay on the couch.
"Ditto, babe. Ditto." She said with a smile, one hand holding Troian's, and the other starting to tangle in her fiancée's hair and massage her head.
