I woke up the next morning with Dimitri snoring beside me. Boy, do we make a good couple. I slowly rolled over to check the time on the clock beside the bed, careful not to wake Dimitri up. It was 9:34 a.m. and I was starving. I sighed, jumping when I felt an arm creep around my stomach, grabbing me and jerking me backwards. I yelped.

"You didn't think I could stay asleep when my beautiful wife is already awake." Dimitri whispered lovingly in my ear. I giggled.

"Dimitri, let go!" I laughed, struggling to get out of his strong, but gentle grip. This change in attitude was surprising.

"Fine, but only if we can get doughnuts." Dimitri smiled, tucking a stray strand of hair behind my ear.

"I'll do that only if you get up and dressed for the day. No jeans."

"You sound like my mother."

"Nice. Now get going!" Dimitri jumped out of bed, saluting me as he walked to the bathroom. I smiled. Now that I was in a better mood, Dimitri seemed happier as well. I slipped into black sweatpants and a black t-shirt, tying my hair up in a loose ponytail. By that time, Dimitri had already come out of the bathroom and sat down, opening one of his many western novels. I walked over and stood in front of him, hands on my hips.

"What do you think you're doing?" I said, mock disapproval in my voice.

"Reading. Should I be doing something else?"

"Nope." I grinned, sitting down next to him. He put an arm around me.

"You ready for tonight?" He asked, growing serious.

"I have no idea." I replied, honestly. I had no clue what would happen next, and wasn't at all excited to find out.
