Bright sunlight streams through the window, casting a warm glow over the sleeping couple. Hunter has his arms wrapped around Grett, snoring quietly while she rests peacefully against his chest.
Suddenly, little footsteps could be heard approaching the bedroom. The door slowly creaks open and two little heads peak inside, blue eyes peeking in.
The children exchange glances and mischievous grins appear on their faces. The two 6-year-olds immediately jump up onto the bed, effectively waking their parents up.
"Wake uuuuup!" They exclaim, bouncing up and down on the mattress.
The sudden impact makes both Hunter and Grett jolt in surprise. Upon seeing their twins, the British woman starts to laugh while Hunter chuckles and rubs his eyes, sitting up in bed.
"Good morning you two." He yawns, running a hand through his messy hair.
Charlie climbs onto his dad's lap. "Daddy! We want pancakes!" He exclaims.
Autumn moves to sit down beside Grett. "Please, mama?"
Grett smiles, sitting up as well. She gently runs her fingers through her daughter's soft hair. "You want pancakes for breakfast?"
The boy with brown hair nods, a wide grin on his face. "I want chocolate chip pancakes!"
The girl with brown hair also nods eagerly. "And I want strawberries on top, too!"
Hunter chuckles again. "Alright, alright. We'll make you two pancakes."
The twins cheer with excitement. The older man swings his legs over the side of the bed and stand up. "Come on, guys. Let's go see what we have in the kitchen."
Charlie and Autumn follow their father out of the room, eager to help with making breakfast. Grett stays behind, watching her family go ahead. She can't help but feel warmth spread through her chest.
She never thought she'd have a happy life after everything she went through. But now, with Hunter and their kids by her side, she wouldn't change it for anything in the world.
She eventually gets out of bed, slipping on some slippers and joining her family in the kitchen. Hunter is digging through the cabinets, taking out various ingredients. Charlie and Autumn are already sitting at the counter and waiting for the breakfast to be made.
Grett walks up behind him, wrapping her arms around him. "Anything I can do to help?"
Hunter turns his head to press a kiss to her forehead. "Could you please get the mixing bowl and whisk out for me, babe?"
She nods and walks over to the cupboard and takes the items out, handing them over to him. "Here you go."
"Thanks, gorgeous." He winks at her, turning his attention back to the task at hand.
Charlie hops off his stool. "Can I help stir?"
Autumn points at the fruit bowl. "And can I wash the strawberries? Pleeeeease?"
Grett chuckles, smiling. "Of course you two can help!"
The kids get to work, their eyes shining with excitement. They love helping with breakfast. Charlie dips his finger in the bowl and quickly shoves it in his mouth.
"Hey! You're supposed to be helping, not eating the pancake batter, you goober." Hunter playfully scolds him.
The boy grins, looking all too innocent. "Oops."
Grett chuckles, ruffling her son's hair. "You little trouble maker." She looks to Hunter. "I'll get started on the eggs and bacon, then."
He nods. "Sounds good, babe!"
She takes out a pan from the cabinet, placing it on the stove. She cracks a few eggs into it and cooks the bacon on the other side. She keeps an eye on the children and her silly husband, making sure they're not making too much of a mess.
Hunter catches his wife's eye and he can't help but smile at the sight of her. Even when she's in her pajamas and no makeup on, she's absolutely beautiful.
Grett returns the smile, a warm feeling spreading through her chest. She loves this. She loves getting to experience these moments of domestic bliss with her family.
The smell of pancakes, bacon and fresh coffee soon fills the kitchen. Grett pours a cup for herself, adding a splash of cream and and sugar. She keeps Hunter's pure black, just the way he likes it.
Charlie is helping Hunter flip a pancake, his tongue sticking out as he concentrates. It takes a few tries but he finally accomplishes it, turning to Grett with a proud smile.
"I did it, mama!" He exclaims.
She gives him a pat on the head. "Good job, sweetie! You're a natural pancake flipper!"
The boy grins, his small chest puffed out with pride. "Maybe I'll be even better than daddy one day!"
Hunter rolls his eyes playfully, ruffling his son's hair. "Hey now, don't get too ahead of yourself there, sport."
Grett brings her husband his steaming black coffee. "Here you go, chef."
The black haired man takes a sip, humming appreciatively. "Perfect as always."
Autumn tugs at her mother's sleeve, holding up a freshly washed strawberry. "Mama, look! I picked the prettiest one for you!"
Grett’s heart melts as she takes it. "Thank you, darling! Should we put on top of my pancake?"
The little girl nods eagerly. "Yes!"
She smiles at her daughter, placing the fruit on her pancake for her. "Perfect! Now, let's eat!"
The family all sit down at the table with their breakfast, ready to dig in. Charlie immediately grabs a piece of his chocolate chip pancake and stuffs it into his mouth. Autumn, however, picks up her fork and neatly begins eating with small bites.
Hunter and Grett exchange an amused look at how different their children are despite them being twins. He turns to face her, raising his coffee cup in a small toast.
"To another beautiful morning with you and our little kiddos." He says.
She smiles warmly, holding hers up. "To our beautiful life together." They tap them together with a soft *clink* before taking a sip.
As the morning sunlight streams through the kitchen window, Grett leans into Hunter’s side, her heart full and family by her side.
