I can't remember the last time I woke up and jumped out of bed with this much excitement. It's like being a kid again, waking up on Christmas morning or the first day of summer vacation.

My gift waits upstairs at Nik’s. How is it possible that she already means so much to me? So much that I can barely take the time to get dressed before heading up two floors. I can't wait to see her. I can't wait to make her smile since it seems like she hasn't had much of a reason to do that lately.

The apartment is quiet, the bedroom door still closed. That's not a big surprise since it’s barely past seven o’clock, and we got in late last night. It's not their fault I couldn't sleep another wink thanks to my excitement. Right away, I think about the empty kitchen in that tiny apartment, and I decide to put breakfast together. I'm sure Bane will be up here eventually, so I keep him in mind as I go through the fridge and pantry.

First, coffee. The aroma fills the air by the time I whip up eggs while the bacon sizzles on the griddle.

It's no surprise when I hear the ping signaling the elevator’s arrival. Bane yawns as he crosses the living room, heading straight for me. “I swear, I could smell that from downstairs.” He glances down the hall to the bedroom in passing, then heads straight for the coffee maker.

“You better help me here. You don't get to eat for free,” he grumbles but starts slicing sourdough for toast.

It's not long before soft footsteps signal the approach of a smiling angel wrapped in a bathrobe. Her hair is messed up, and she's rubbing her eyes, and I don't think anything has ever looked so beautiful. “Good morning.” Her voice is sweet, a little shy, and there's no reason it should make my dick hard, but I can't help it. She is as close to perfection as anything I've ever seen. I could easily forget breakfast in favor of eating something much tastier.

Instead of devouring her, I grin from my place in front of the stove. “I hope you're hungry,” I offer.

“I’m starved.”

Jerking a head toward the island, I say, “Pull up a stool and get comfortable. Breakfast is almost ready.”

“How did you sleep?” Bane asks as he slides a cup of coffee her way.

“Like the dead.”

“You mean Nik didn't keep you up with his snoring?”

“I don't snore,” Nik growls as he enters the kitchen and gives Bane a dirty look that only makes the rest of us laugh.

“Is it like this all the time?” she asks with a giggle.

“Are you asking if we get together for group breakfasts? No. You're here, so it's a special day.” I can't believe that just came out of me, but the warmth of her smile and the light in her beautiful eyes wipes away any embarrassment.

“I'm honored.” And when I present her with a heaping plate of scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast, she groans.
