i was stress-cleaning Zion's house. i slept over again and i just couldn't stop thinking about what i did to Brandon, so here i am, with a broom and a dustpan. sweeping the wide span smooth granite hallway floors.

i heard footsteps sneak up behind me while i swept along the stairs, "Lorin?" a sleepy Zion croaks from behind me and i whip my around to see him.

"come back to bed." he says and slithers his arms around my waist, snuggling his face into my shoulder and i reach back and run my fingers through his dreads.

"in a second." i reply and get a tighter grip on the broom, continuing to sweep the stairs, going down farther stair by stairs.

"Lorin!" he whines and rubs his eyes, stretching before running at me and grabbing me by the waist, the broom clatter to the ground as i drop it in surprise.

he picks me and runs with me back to the bedroom, "zionnnn!" i groan and try to push his hands off of me back he tackles me down onto the bed and i giggle as he does.

he leaves multiple kisses all over my face and chuckles softly as he does, "i said come back to bed." he whispers and lays back down beside me and i cuddle myself up against him and smile.

"fine." i sigh and look up at him as he looks back down at me, "but you owe me breakfast in the morning." i whisper back to him and he laughs, nodding his head as he leaves a kiss on my forehead.
