Chapter 3:
By the time we were pulling up to the cabin I was dead tired. Sleep sounded like heaven for me at this point and all I wanted was to put on my cotton shorts and tank, crawl into a bed and pass out till the sun woke me sometime tomorrow.
"Alright Darlin, you know which room is yours. Just toss the sheets on and hit the hay."
"Sounds like a fantastic plan Logan. I'll see you in the am." I mumbled half heartedly as a shuffled towards what Logan referred to as my room.
9 am the next morning
I woke up to the sun shinning on my face and the smell of bacon, sausage, and pancakes in the air. Logan was making breakfast and it smelled perfect. I pushed my covers off and stumbled out of my room and down the hall towards the kitchen.
"Morning Marie." Logan said as I plopped down in a chair.
"UGH" I managed with my head buried in my arms. Logan laughed at me so I glanced up at him. He was standing in front of me with a large mug of something that smelled suspiciously like coffee.
"Here ya are darlin, fresh cup of it just for you."
"Bless you kind sir." I say blinking against the bright sunlight that had managed to shine right in my face from the kitchen window. Logan threw his head back and laughed at me while I sat there sipping my coffee. A few moments later he placed a large plate of pancakes, sausage, bacon and eggs in front of me.
"Are you trying to fatten me up or something?" I ask staring at the rather large breakfast.
"I figured you'd need energy to sit by the lake and read. Besides aren't you the one always telling me breakfast is the most important part of the day?" Logan asked with a smile on his face.
"Well yes but there is no way I'll eat all of this." I gestured to the plate in front of me.
"That's fine, eat what you can and then clear the rest." Logan pointed out. I grumbled at him as I placed some pancake in my mouth. We had a nice quiet breakfast, uneventful and almost dull.
"So Logan what are you doing today?"
"Well I plan on looking over the plans for the house and maybe starting that wing I've been meaning to do."
I nodded in understanding. The wing was something Logan had been talking about for a while now but just never got around to. Other things kept coming up, this week would be a great time to make the plans and map out on the ground how to set the wing up.
"Sounds like a plan. Well I'm going to put on my bathing suit and hanging out by the lake today. If you need anything thing holler and I'll come running."
"Don't worry Marie, you spend the day relaxing. I'll call you for lunch."
"Alrighty then. See ya later Logan." I said walking out of the kitchen. After stopping in my room for my suit I made my way to the backdoor. There laying right out on the porch was my towel, sunscreen, chair, and book. It looked like Logan got everything together for me so I wouldn't. I gathered everything up and made my way to the lake. After setting everything up I settled down for a nice nap before I started reading. Nothing like a nice long nap in the sun to really start a relaxing week. Yes, this was the life and I could get use to it.
