Sandcastles

As the darkness of the night fades into a beautiful new day, I step out of my cozy and warm bed to find Radley sleeping soundly. I sigh deeply as I see him shivering without a trace of warmth from the blanket, so I decide to quietly pull the blanket over him. As soon as I reach his face, I shriek as I am pulled down onto him.

"Radley," I laugh and shout at the same time, "you scared me." He smiles with his eyes half open, yawning, "Were you going to let me sleep?" I nod, "Why not?" "We have that meeting with your siblings, then later, we have to meet with the whole family," he says seriously, "you forgot?" I nod, "Yes I did forget. That is why you and everyone else are there to remind me." He chuckles, kissing me on my lips.

I make my way off him and into the shower then I change into an appropriate but breathable dress that is fit for the hot weather. Once we are dressed, we make our way to the tea room, which we asked if we could use for some negotiations.
