He sighed in relief when they finally got home. “It’s a tiring day. Good thing I won’t need to come back until next week.” He take off his coat and vest, loosening his tie.

"Yes, I’m glad too," Azalea said as she took of the shoes. "I’m going to take off the jewelry and out these shoes away, I’ll be out in a few." She entered her room and within a few minutes was done and leaving her room. She was still wearing the dress.

Sidney laid down on the couch. He saw her coming out of her room. “Hmm? You’re not changing the dress? I was about to change but I feel wasted so I’m cooling down a bit.”

She shrugged her shoulders. “I like it and I’m kind of feeling lazy right now,” she said walking over to him. “Mind if I sit?”

"Sure," He shifted and made some room for her. He hugged a pillow and closed his eyes.

Azalea sat down and then laid down on Sidney. “I’m guessing you’re tired,” she said as she looked up at him. Her head was on his stomach and he was comfortable.

"I am," He stroked her head gently. "More like mentally.." He sighs. "But my body is wasted as well. Should we go to bed and take a nap perhaps? The couch isn’t really that comfortable."

Azalea sat up. “That sounds good to me,” she said. She stood up and looked down at Sidney smiling. She was tired as well and she hasn’t been able to take a nap for a while, so it sounded amazing. Especially because she’d be snuggling next to her husband.

He got off the couch. “Do you mind if I sleep with you again?” He took her hand and walked towards the guest room.

"Of course not," she said as she held his hand and stood closer to him than was required. The reached the room and Azalea climbed into the bed.

Sidney took off his belt and tie, undoing few buttons of his shirt. Then he climbed into the bed after her and snuggled up. He brought her into his arms. He touched her face gently while smiling a little.

Azalea sighed and leaned her head against Sidney’s hand. Her eyes closed again, enjoying his touch.

Sidney leaned close and pecked her lips quickly. He slid his hand from her face down to caress her shoulder.

She sighed again and tipped her head back instinctively. “Sidney,” she whispered as she relaxed against the bed.

"Yes, my dear?" He smiled gently. He sneaked one arm under her to be wrapped around her waist. The other is cupping her face while he kissed her deeply.
