Cheryl opened her eyes a little, light came in through the window, she got up carefully not to wake up her wife and went to the bathroom, when she came back Toni was on her back with her hand under her head and her elbow bent, Cheryl got into bed and got closer to Toni, laid her head on her shoulder, put her arm around her torso and interlocked their legs, Toni low her arm and attracted the redhead more to her if that was possible, Cheryl took a breath and enjoyed the warmth and tranquility that emanated from her wife, she adored being like this, little by little she began to close her eyes
"Mommy, Mama," Rose whispered, Cheryl and Toni slowly opened their eyes, Rose was next to Toni, on her knees and with a big smile on her face
-Good morning, sweetheart.- Cheryl said stretching a little but without moving from the site, Rose got up a little and lay on top of Toni since she loved being on her
-Ow ... said Toni although a smile drew it on her lips, she also liked that the little girl got on top of her, she always did it every time she had the opportunity she got on and made herself comfortable on top of Toni although with the rest siblings she also does it, but especially with Toni. Rose rested her head on her chest and with her right arm hugged the redhead as best she could.
-How did you sleep? .- Cheryl asked smiling tenderly, seeing the image of her daughter lying comfortably and with a soft smile on her face, transmitting peace
-Good.- Rose said calmly as she looked into her eyes, from that position they could see their faces, Cheryl from Toni’s shoulder and Rose from her chest.-Mommy, I love you.- Rose said softly raising her little hand to the redhead's face, Cheryl's heart melted and a big smile was drawn on her lips
-Hey! What favoritism is this.- Toni said smiling and opening her mouth a little in surprise, Rose did not have time to respond because Toni took advantage of her free hand to tickle the little girl's sides and Rose turned on top of her mother trying get rid of tickling
-Nooo, mama.- she said with a laugh -I love you too.- Rose said quickly with a big smile on her face
-I hope so.- Toni said smiling, stopping tickling her, Rose relaxed, lying down again in the same position as a few seconds ago and Toni hugged her tightly
-What are you doing?.- Maddie asked entering her mothers room
"Cuddling up," Toni said, raising her head slightly to look at the redhead in her Harry Potter pajamas at the door of the room
-I want to too.- Maddie said smiling, she went to her mothers' bed, climbed on top and got behind Cheryl, put her arm over her to hug her reaching her little sister's back and making the three of them let go a giggle
One thing that all the Topaz loved is being all together and curled up in bed, sofa or anywhere, they have done it since they were very young until now, no matter how old they are, it is something that will never change
-What time is it?.- Thomas asked with a tired voice, his mothers and sisters raised their heads to look at him, Thomas was in the door he had a mark on the face from the position in which he had slept and was scratching an eye with his left hand
"Nine o'clock, I think," Maddie said looking at him.
Thomas advanced slowly, got on the bed and lay down next to Toni, she took her arm off Rose and put it around the brunette's back and pulled him closer to her making Thomas get more comfortable and lean on her shoulder
Jason went down the bedrooms and did not see his little siblings in their beds, strange thing, he went to their mothers' room and saw the five hugging in bed, he could not hold back and ran into the room, throwing himself on the bed with open arms causing the girls to let out a cry of joy and start laughing, Jason had a big smile on his face, gave them a kiss and lay right next to Maddie so as not to crush his siblings and mothers and put his arm through his sister to hug them.
Beatrice was more cautious, smiled when she saw them and lay next to Thomas, pressing her chest to the little boy's back and they all enjoyed being hugged. Cheryl and Toni were happy they loved being like this with all their children
-What are we going to do today?.- Thomas asked a little more awake than before
-I have to go to the theater with Maddie.- Toni said looking at the ceiling
-Mama, can you bring me to Nora's house?.- Beatrice asked, sitting up a little to look into her eyes.
"Sure, princess." Toni said turning her head to look at her, the redhead smiled and leaned back on the pillow
-And me?.- Rose asked looking at Cheryl
Cheryl thought about it for a moment.- I have a plan in mind.- said the redhead, looking at her and smiling at her.
-And what is that plan?.- Toni asked intrigued
-I can't tell you.- Cheryl said smiling
-And why is that? Toni said smiling and trying to look at her wife, a little difficult because of their posture
-It's a surprise.- she said raising her head a little to look at her, smiling sweetly at her wife
-Can i know? .- Rose asked intrigued
-Yes, but when mama leaves.- the redhead answered, putting a hair on her ear and returning to the same position as before
-That’s unfair.- Toni murmured slightly shaking her head.
Cheryl smiled she wanted to have a detail with her wife, her children will also love it but especially her wife.- Jason, what are your plans?.- said the redhead and wait for the answer since she could not see him
-I think I'm going to read the architecture book that you brought me, I've been wanting to read it all week.- he answer, in his voice you could glimpse some eagerness
After explaining the plans they had and spending a few more minutes all together and hugging. They have breakfast and each one got ready; Maddie, Beatrice and Toni went to the theater, Jason took his book and sat on the living room floor leaning his back on the sofa, put the book on the small table and began to read it while Crispis rested his head on his legs, with one hand turned the pages and with the other stroked the Dalmatian’s hair
-What do you think ... if we make some desserts.- Cheryl said, clasping her hands and looking at Thomas and Rose with a smile on her face
The three of them liked to cook a lot and it is because of the redhead, she loves making healthy food and especially desserts because her wife and her children love them too. Making her own food is something that she has been able to transmit to all her children, but especially to Thomas since he loves to cook, whenever they are cooking he is the first to help and be interested in the subject. The first thing the redhead did was put a chair next to the counter to put Rose on top so she could see and help, Thomas did not need it since he reached the counter perfectly, the three of them each put on their aprons; Red for Cheryl and Rose and Blue with comic drawings for Thomas
Cheryl separated the ingredients with the help of Thomas and with the impatience of her little daughter by her side saying all the time “Can i help” or “When I help” since she couldn´t help much, after preparing everything, Cheryl put in front of Rose a bowl with the ingredients inside.- You have to mix the flour, the sugar, the vanilla sugar.- explained the redhead, Rose carefully took the spoon and slowly began to move it as her mother was saying -And you, Tommy, are going to do the hard work.-Cheryl finished saying, looking away from her little daughter for a second to look at him
-Great!.- he said happily
Cheryl giggled and put all the ingredients in the bowl so that he could mix them all together by hand, Thomas did not give up no matter how long he had to be mixing he did not care and Cheryl asked him from time to time if she helped him but he every time answered no
-Do you want me to move it a bit? .- said the redhead seeing that her son began to fight with the dough
-No mommy. I already have it.- he said concentrating on his task
Cheryl looked at him, he was frowning and slightly sticking her tongue out of his lips as a sign of concentration, he always makes that little gesture when he's focused and Cheryl finds adorable. -That's it.- Cheryl said softly giving him a kiss on the hair.- Put it in the fridge and now I tell you what we have to do next.- she said looking slightly towards the fridge as she continued helping Rose to remove the bone from the cherries
-Can I eat one? .- Rose asked looking at the cherries hungrily, she loved it just like Toni and she was holding on to eat it but she couldn't take it anymore
-Of course, but don't eat many, we need them.- said Cheryl smiling tenderly at her
-Now what I do, mommy.- Thomas asked, standing next to her again, Cheryl pointed out some ingredients that she had behind her since while the little ones made the cherry buns she began to separate the ingredients for the next dessert, they were not only going to make one but several since seven people eat a lot especially some more than others and only the buns are going to end that night
They continued cooking Thomas was in charge of the hard work, leaving Rose a bit since the little girl was washing the cherries, scratching some orange or sifting the flour, small things while the redhead prepared the rest of the ingredients and cleaned everything that was used
-Wow.- Rose said impressed when Cheryl took the first batch of cherry buns from the oven, they had grown a lot and they looked very good.
Cheryl put the tray aside and began to remove them from the mold being careful not to burn herself, Rose went to take one in her hand.- Not yet, sweetheart, I just took them out.- the redhead warned, Rose looked at her and sighed , she was impatient to try them, so Cheryl took one, broke it and waited for it to cool, meanwhile between the two of them they refilled the molds again and Cheryl put them back in the oven "Be careful, it burns a little." Said the redhead, picking up a piece of muffin and giving it to Rose in her mouth. "How are they?" She asked, looking carefully as her daughter savored the buns.
-Exquisite.- she said smiling, Cheryl giggled even though she is only four years old, she has a quite advanced vocabulary for that age and that doesn´t stop to amaze her day after day
"I want to too," Thomas said, looking away from what he was doing to look at his mother and sister, Cheryl went to him and gave him a chunk and Thomas moaned. "It´s delicious, mommy," he said with his mouth full.
-You have done it all, my loves.- Cheryl said hugging them.
They finished making the desserts; cherry buns, chocolate chip muffins and an orange cake and they got to make dinner, pizza dough The three of them put flour in their hands, so that the dough wouldn't stick to their hands and Rose slapped her hands spreading all the flour around the kitchen.
-Rose.- Thomas said a little annoyed by what his sister had just done, Cheryl looked at her with a serious face but she passed it to her right away, since the little girl did it again and began to laugh out loud making her mother and Thomas laugh with her and Jason put the book down to join them
...
-It smells good.- Toni said when she entered the door, she saw that on the kitchen island there were cherry buns (her favorites), muffins, a orange cake and now they were making a kind of pizza dough, she went to them immediately. She went to get a cherry bun but ..-Ouch.- Toni said when her wife hit her hand just as she was going to take one
-No, mama, you eat them all.- Thomas said protesting and with good reason her mother was the one who ate the most, followed by Rose and Beatrice, the three of them ate the most cherry buns, Thomas loved muffins with chocolate chips, Maddie and Jason love the orange cake and Cheryl enjoyed everyone being happy with their favorite desserts even though she occasionally stole some
Toni looked at them offended.- I don't eat them all.- she said looking into their eyes.
-Yes, you do.- Rose said giggling
Toni looked at her in surprise, raised her gaze and looked at her wife. "They have done everything," she said proudly with a smile. "How have you been?"
-Very good.- Maddie said happily taking a place on the kitchen island.-I'm going to be the protagonist in the Christmas function.- she said smiling showing her teeth, she had worked very hard for weeks to get it and she had finally achieved it
-That's great, sugar, congratulations.- Cheryl said proudly making Maddie blush
-What's for dinner? .- asked Beatrice sitting next to her sister
-Pizza, in addition to all this for dessert.- Cheryl said with a big smile on her face, pointing to everything they had prepared, her daughters looked at the desserts with bright eyes.
Toni went around the kitchen island to meet her wife.- Was this the surprise?.- She said looking the redhead in the eyes
-Uh huh.- Cheryl said turning to be in front of her
"Thanks’ baby," she said, giving her a kiss on the lips, when she moved away. Toni took out a simple red rose from her jeans pocket. Cheryl made a surprised face, she was not expecting it and immediately a smile formed on her lips.-I knew you had a surprise for me and.. I wanted to have a detail with you.- Toni said smiling
Cheryl looked at the rose and then at her wife, she took the rose in her hands and held it to her nose to smell it. "You are very sweet, my love." Said the redhead, pushing the rose away from her nose, she took her jacket between her hand and pulled her towards her to give her a soft kiss on the lips making the two of them smile in the kiss
Jason, Beatrice and Maddie looked at each other smiling, they were used to seeing displays of affection for their mothers.
-Rose that is not eaten.- Thomas said making Cheryl and Toni stand aside and look at the little girl, Rose was tasting the raw pizza dough and her face was wrinkled
-Oh, sweetheart.- Cheryl said giggling, she approached her, took her hand away from the dough, Rose stuck her tongue out of her mouth with remnants of dough and the redhead took them off
-I don't like it that way.- she said frowning when Cheryl finished removing the dough from her mouth making the whole family laugh.
-What else is there to do? .- Toni asked, standing next to Thomas -Thomas, Rose and I have to finish the dough, Maddie and Beatrice can cut the ingredients ... Cheryl started giving orders to her children and her wife and together they finished cooking as a family
