The Bombshell

The sun was coming through the little space between the curtains right on FP's face. He murmured and slowly opened his eyes to see that last night wasn't a dream. She really was lying next to him in one of his oversized grey t- shirt. He turned to his side and a crooked grin formed on his face while he stared at her since she was still sound asleep.

His index finger softly caressed her upper arm and apparently it was tickling her because she slowly woke up. Her body was moving, but her eyes weren't open yet. He chuckled by the sight of her beautiful morning face. ''Good morning.'' FP whispered quietly. When she heard his voice she opened her eyes, seeing the man next to her.

The moment her eyes processed the face of the man lying next to her the corners of her mouth shot up high. She giggled and turned her head towards him so she could face him properly. ''Morning.'' Her finger swiped over his chin for a second before she came up.

Her eyes took a quick look at the clock and she saw that it was half an hour before the kids would have to wake up in order to get to school on time. Alice got up but she didn't get the chance to really leave the bed since FP's body quickly got up as well and he smoothly snaked his arms around her waist, pulling her back to his chest.

He nuzzled his face into the crook of her neck and smelled the scent of her shampoo before prepping a few light kisses on her jaw. Alice hummed and closed her eyes, enjoying the gentle touch of his lips on her body. One hand was placed on her abdomen, softly tickling her bare skin while the other was resting on the grey fabric over her side.

''Just five more minutes.'' He whispered in her ear. Alice giggled and pressed her cheek onto his. She wish they could stay there all day but sadly that wasn't the case. The kids couldn't see them snuggling together and both Alice and FP knew that if that five minutes turned out to be more they would risk getting caught.

''I'd love to, but the kids are going to wake up soon.'' She sighed a little, having mixed feelings over not being able to cuddle with him all day. She certainly could use it. They had a lot of time to make up for but sadly the moments they could be together while being in the same house was still very rare. It was their own choice for now, to figure things out on their own. It was difficult enough without everyone sticking their nose into it.

FP wanted to complain but the sound of his phone vibrating made him turn around to look at his nightstand. He leant a little backwards and reached for his cell phone, which he grabbed with the fingertips of his right hand, not wanting to let go of Alice's body being so close to his.

''Hello?'' He said in his morning voice. He expected someone from the station, asking him to come to work already, or calling him for an emergency, but to his surprise it was even worse than that. Alice could read in his eyes that the phone call wasn't what he expected but she couldn't read if he was surprised or annoyed. Maybe it was a mix of those two things.

''Yeah, that's fine. You have the right to see them.'' His voice wasn't convincing, but he seemed to mean it. Alice traced the shape of his kneecap with her index finger, waiting for him to be done with the conversation. She could feel his body tense so she placed her own hand over the hand that was still firmly on her waist.

''Actually I need to talk to you as well. Can you meet me at Pop's for lunch? It's about the kids.'' Alice's eyes shot up, now knowing that the person on the other line was Gladys - The woman he was still legally married to. Her mind immediately bothered her with flashbacks of him telling her he chose his wife but she tried to hid the fact that she was already panicking inside.

''See you then.'' FP hang up the phone and placed it next to him on the bed. He sighed loudly and fiddled with his hand through his hair, making it look even more messy than it already was.
