After they had spent the evening out on Valentine's day, Niels and Amanda were now doing even more things together. They often cooked together, sat on the couch together. They playfully kissed each other often. And when they did, Amanda often giggled. Niels couldn't help it, but after that time out, he felt so much more playfulness between them. It was almost as if they had went back a few years in time, to when they had been young and free of the responsibility they had these days.
A few days after Valentine's Day, Niels decided to do something special for Amanda. He knew she would wake up as soon as he left the bed, but as they had been up late the day before to watch a movie, Niels got up. As he had predicted, Amanda shifted, feeling his empty spot, to which she opened her eyes a little. As Niels kissed her forehead, she let out a soft sigh, closing her eyes. Niels grinned and walked out of their bedroom, making his way into the kitchen. He began making her a delicious breakfast, and as that was done, he plated it all. He put a glass of juice on the platter as well before walking to a cabinet. It was probably the only one Amanda barely looked in, and he had been lucky that between the time he had gone grocery shopping and that day, she didn't look in it. Placing the small extra on the plate, he smiled and went back upstairs. Once he entered their room, he sat down on Amanda's side of the bed. He grinned as she stretched and looked at him sleepily. He kissed her forehead gently, whispering: "Your hubby's here again, and he's come bearing the gift of breakfast in bed..." He chuckled as she sat up a little before taking the box that was on the platter. "This is for you too," he said, kissing her softly before she opened it. The smile that made her face light up made his day. The effort he had put into this had been worth all of it.
