When she got up the next morning Nick was sitting at the kitchen table reading the paper.
"Good morning." He told her with a smile.
"Morning." She told him without returning his smile.
He got up and went over to the refrigerator and opened it.
"Here, I stopped at the coffee shop and bought you a mocha frap, and then I stopped at Bailey's (a popular breakfast spot) and got you your favorite, cinnamon roll pancakes." He walked the frap over to her and then went and got a plate so he could warm the pancakes.
"Thank you, Nicky." She told him and this time she actually smiled at him.
He was trying, she knew it, and she appreciated it.
After taking the pancakes to the table he sat down next to her and grabbed her hand.
"I really am sorry Jacks, I get too wrapped up in my job a lot and I need to quit doing that, you and the kids are the most important thing to me, not work, you know that right?"
"Yes, I know." She told him sincerely.
"Good, and just so you don't make any plans I told Russell that I am taking next Saturday off and you and I are going up to the Blue Diamond resort for the night, I already made the reservations."
"You've been busy this morning." She told him with a grin.
"Yeah, who knew someone could get so much accomplished by 7:30 AM." He agreed.
She laughed.
"These are delicious, thanks for doing this." She told him after taking a bite of her pancakes.
"You're welcome, I'm glad you like them." She smiled and then took a drink of her coffee.
"And I'm looking forward to going up to Blue Diamond next weekend." She said.
"Yeah me too. Since you aren't pregnant we can have a glass of wine while we watch the sunset up on the ridge."
"That sounds great." She replied.
"Yeah it does." He said.
He then grabbed her hand.
"Are we good, you and I?"
"Yes, we're good." She assured him.
"Good." He answered with a huge smile and a sigh of relief.
"Want a bite?" She asked.
He opened his mouth.
She gave him a bite.
"Yum, those are good." He told her.
She shook her head in agreement.
She enjoyed the rest of her breakfast.
She was extremely glad that things were back on track between her and Nick!
The End!
