"Sweetheart, we fell asleep." He said softly in her ear.
"I see that." She replied as she stretched again. "I'm still tired."
"Me too." He said as he looked at the time. "We have time to sleep in some more, but let's go to the other room."
"Why?" she asked.
"More room." He replied as he got up around her and then picked her up and carried her into the bedroom. "See." He said as she stretched out on the bed.
"I do." She said as she looked at him. "You coming?"

Chapter TwoGina sat in her room after working in the cooking building on her recipe for finals. She had three weeks to perfect it, and she would need almost all of the time. She had designed the cake to be five layers of different flavors. She wanted to try something new, something that wasn’t anything she had tried before. She designed the outside of it as simply as she could, but she knew she needed something that would set the whole thing apart from all the others. She continued to look at the design and knew it wasn’t the design on the cake she wanted to think about. It was a certain blue-eyed man who had called a few days ago.She had talked to her mother, who laughed and said it, of course, would be okay if she spent the time over at Maleek’s house instead of the family’s house. Her newest brothers and sister were still so young that she didn’t know how to relate to them. The fact was tha

Maleek had no idea what she had just done, but it seemed that she was perfectly clear with her intentions. She sat in the cab of his truck when he got into it and just looked her over. He was seeing if she was indeed the normally quiet, sweet girl she always was. He didn’t know that she was burning through. She was burning from the inside out from the first touch of his kiss.Gina looked in front of her. She had no idea why she did that, but it seemed like a good idea to do. She really hadn’t wanted to ignite a fire in her skin. The look on his face made her want to do it again and again, though. She tried to sit still, but everything that was touching her sent shivers down her spine. With the added pressure now on her skin that seemed like everything around her was going to combust, she knew she had done something other than what she had wanted to. She was trapped by the feeling as well.Gina knew she was in trouble the second she let her eye

Gina Waited for a moment as they got to Maleek’s house. She was still reeling from the kiss that both he started and then the one that she started. She was the life your life in the moment type of person, but she had never just kissed someone. It was unlike anything she had ever done, and it not only took him by surprise but herself. She began to wonder if Reena was in the same spot, so to speak with Yuri. Everyone knew that he was for her, how he felt in the long run for her as well. This was new to her. She didn’t know if this was one of Maleek’s flings or he was being serious. He was impossible to read at times, and right now was one of those times for her.“You coming?” he asked.“Thinking,” she said as he walked over to the door and opened it for her.“Think inside. It is chilly,” he replied as he took her hand, and she walked up to the steps with him.

The night seemed to drag on as Maleek explained how he cooked the dinner and what spices he used. Normally Gina would hang on to his every word, but she had too much on her mind at the moment. He liked her. That was the number one thing in her brain she couldn’t completely settle. He had feelings for her like she did him. she had to admit it was a great feeling, but at the same time, she knew this was moving beyond her simple one-sided crush. He was not one to drag his feet though it seemed he did until she was old enough to handle this.Gina thought of Reena and Yuri. She wondered if they were having the same situation. Everyone knew how Yuri felt for Reena. The only person who seemed completely clueless was Reena. When push came to shove, she knew her sister also liked Yuri, and that was the reason she hadn’t dated much in the past four years. She used the incident as a cover, but it was the fact Yuri was there in her life on the sidelines. Gina an

“Monkey?” Maleek asked into the Kitchen.“Don’t call me that!” Gina said as she was mixing the ingredients for the pasta salad together.“Why not?” Maleek asked as he chuckled about her reaction.“That was my father's thing.” She replied.“Mark?” Maleek asked.“No, my real dad,” Gina said.“You don’t talk about him,” Maleek said.“Honestly, I tried to forget him,” she said as she looked up into his blue eyes.“Why?” Maleek asked.“He didn’t really want kids, Maleek. he wanted things. He was always high. Always.” She said.“What about your mom?” he asked.“She didn’t even stay in the hospital after I was born. She left me and signed her rights away a few months later. We all have different moms. Reena&rsq

The darkened room was nothing like the Kitchen. That was a state-of-the-art room that had everything someone could ever need. It was kept as clean as a restaurant should be. He took time to scrub every surface and make sure it was exactly as it was when it was brand new. She watched him as he worked and laughed as he cracked jokes about everything.When they moved to a different room, she knew it was not as clean. It was actually a mess like a tornado had been in there. Maleek was serious about two things in his life, and extra cleaning wasn't one of them. He loved to fight. He was good at it. Having trained with some of the best over the years, he was a fighting machine when it came to the battlefield, a force to be reckoned with both as a tactical advisor and one on one. Off the battlefield, he was passionate about food. It was infectious, and Gina, of all people, had caught it from him.This room she assumed was supposed

“Sweetheart, are you okay?” Maleek asked Gina as they lay in bed together, and he was tracing a circle on her arm.“Yeah.” She said as she could hardly place any of her thoughts. She was content to lay there in his arms with her head on his chest.“Are you sure?” he asked as he moved and settled in next to her gathering her in his arms and holding her to him.“Yea, Maleek,” she said as she stared into his eyes. This man she knew was not perfect. He was obsessive and playful, but he was not perfect in any way, but he was to her. They may have complete blowups and meltdowns together, but they would always have that spark that could ignite at any time. They were friends. They were almost family. They were now the other half of each other. They were lovers.“I didn’t hurt you?” he asked.“No.,” she re

Four days later, the group stood on the front lawn of the Uesugi house. There were cars lined up and down the street. As the couple stood there and watched as their families all were happy along with friends and all the kids playing together, Morgana’s parents showed up. “no.” was all she said.“Morgana? “Greg asked as he looked down at his wife and saw her expression change. He looked up and saw her eyes on a well-dressed, somewhat fancy older couple walking up to them. “Those are your parents?”“Yes. “She said as she could breathe again.“Morgana. It is time to pack up and come home with everyone else. Ah, Kenshin.” Her mother said as she looked behind Morgana to her uncle, “It is time to have everyone in their rightful place, and the kids come home.”“Well, my home is here,” Morgana said as she looked at her mother and father, who were

Greg drove to the new house he had signed for hours before he had seen her again today. He watched her as her eyes widened. “What is this?” She asked.“Hopefully, our first place.” He said as he got out and met her at the door of the house.“What?” she asked.“I told you things happened fast when I asked my parents for a little help.” Greg laughed. “Here is your key.”“Are you serious?” She asked as he handed her the key. She unlocked the door and was amazed at how the house opened up.“There is a second and third floor, really. This is like a gaming room or something.” Greg said, and she was racing up the stairs. She was standing in the middle of the main room when he caught up to her. She saw the air mattress and everything else that was there for them to use for the night. “Do you like it?”“I love it.” S

Greg stood off to the side at the party. He was thinking of everything that still needed to be done quickly. He had one thing he really wanted to do right now, but he wanted to do it in private. He knew what the answer would be. He knew that she was his future. He had always known that.Everything and everyone was a little too much for him at the moment. He was getting antsy. He looked at his father, who was running around playing with one of the kids. He looked at his mother and then at his sisters and their families. He knew what he wanted in life. He wanted it all right now."How’s it good to be out of the warzone?” His father’s old boss asked as he smiled at boogs in his uniform.“Who said I was out of it.” Greg laughed. “right now, it feels like I am still there.”“We all understand that feeling.” He said with a laugh. “If you need some air go get it.

He smiled as he followed his parents to the local university, and he parked in the back lot, and then he started to where he would be sitting with her uncle. He was steading himself for that.When he saw the small group that was waiting for him. He also noticed that people were looking at him. Kenshin smirked as he looked at his uniform. "I can't believe you chose to wear that.""Well, I did just get home. "Greg said as he put out his hand to shake the older man's hand. The little kids were there around his legs waiting to be hugged. He lifted them all up to look at them, and they giggled and laughed."Well, not really just got home," Kenshin said as he looked at the younger man. "She told me.""She did?" Greg asked. He was really surprised."Despite the differences between us, she is

When Gina got there, she looked over the two men and laughed. "go." She said as she watched over the younger ones along with her own kids. She went into the Kitchen and began to get some meals for the family. Everything was going to busy for the next few days. Though she was a baker, she was married to a cook. She had learned a few tricks.The two men went to go look at the places after Mark sweet-talked some people into giving them the keys. He was ready to jump when they looked in the first place. Greg looked around, and then he walked up the stairs. "Dad, this has four bedrooms.""Yes, and you will need that many." Mark laughed. "Do you know how hard I had to work to get you the chance at a huge place?""I know," Greg said as he looked around. "Thank you. I like this one, and I think she would as well.""Are you sure?" Mark asked. "We can look at the others.""This one," Greg said as he looked around."I figure

The morning came too soon. Greg got up and walked downstairs. He saw there were things all ready for him to go through. "Why are these boxes here?""Because I think it is time for you to move out," Mark said with a smile."Well, that is the plan," Greg said."No, I mean today," Mark said with a huge grin. "I made a few phone calls this morning. I have so many more contacts than even your mother but don't ever tell her that.""Dad, what did you do?" Greg asked. He walked into the Kitchen and knew he needed coffee for this. He really had no idea what his father had done."Well, I thought about what I said last night. This was actually your mother's idea." Mark said."Mom wants me to move out?" Greg asked as he took a sip of his coffee."Well," Mark said."No, I don't." Krissy said as she entered the room. "However, I know what you have to have to get the kids.""The kids?" Greg asked."That is the poin

"give me a few hours to think everything through. This is not something that we can rush." Greg said as he looked at her. Everything needed to fall into its place. "The biggest thing is you have to act like you haven't seen me, and we don't have anything up our sleeves.""I think I can do that," Morgana said as she looked at him. "Greg, I will do anything to keep them away from the neglect they will suffer at the hands of our parents.""I know." He said as he hugged her close. "Are your parents coming here tomorrow?""I don't think so." She said as she looked at him. "They have never thought to do anything for them or me unless they wanted something.""That works in our favor," Greg said. "I am going to go home and think about this some more on what we can realistically do.""Whatever, Greg." She said as she nodded, "I will do whatever remember that.""I completely understand that." He said as he kissed her forehead. "Go get so

The two were locked together, and they both knew that things were changing really quickly between them. The kiss deepened even more, and soon they had lost track of time. Greg pulled up first though he really didn't want to. "As much as I want this to continue, I can't let it.""Why not?" Morgana asked as she looked at him and his large green eyes."First off, you deserve a lot more than something quick in the back of a car." Greg laughed. "Let alone my dad's car at that. Your uncle might be okay and all, but I doubt he would let me stay with you tonight, and my house is full to the brim with people.""I see your point." Morgana laughed. "So what happens now?""Well, the best thing I can think of is in the morning I will get my car, and then I will see you at your graduation. I know you probably have plans afterward." Greg said as he ran his fingers down her cheek as he looked into her eyes."Actually, I don't. I think m

After everyone packed up, and it was just the family. Krissy went off to herd all the little ones to bed. They all were wound up and not ready for it, but they wouldn't give their mother too much trouble. They would play with Mark until they fell asleep. Greg looked at the organized chaos and shook his head."Looks like a chow hall." Mark said as he chuckled. "if it was something good.""Well, I do have to think you might be right." Greg laughed. "I was thinking it was more like boot camp.""Well, your mother is a drill sergeant at times," Mark said with another deep chuckle. "So I will go help her in a bit. She knows I would give in to them, but after the second time they are out of bed, they will listen if I look at them a certain way. That is coming up soon. So here.""Why are you giving me your keys?" Greg asked as he looked at the item his dad was handing over."Surprise or not, we both know you are going across tow
