[Drabble] Nassau

[ooc: Hiro used with permission, not proof read because I gotta work :( ]

It's still warm down in Nassau, even at night, and so the windows are open - currents fluttering in the soft breeze carying the sound of waves crashing on the beach.  All familiar, comforting noises to Salome, though she's use to sleeping in the boat instead of the

Hiro wakes up much later with the sun slanting into the room. Jonba is curled up against Salome, his thumb in his mouth and his other hand wrapped in a lock of her hair. He kisses both of them on the temples and heads into the kitchen to make a couple of simple omlettes and a bowl of cereal. He feels a need for breakfast in bed, even if they'll have to change the sheets after Jonba's finished. He fills the sippy cup with orange juice and includes a little pitcher with milk in it for the cereal.

Making some coffee, and including more juice for himself and Salome, he puts it all on a tray and carries it up to the bedroom. They are still asleep, though he can see Salome twitching as her hand encounters the space he left. He slides back under the covers, letting her hand connect with his thigh. He puts the tray in his lap and gently says, "Wakey, wakey."

She's in the middle of a dream, a dream that doesn't involve monsters or shadows, or even anything particularly spectacular. Just some normal, every day dream when she feels the bed shift, or at least the bed shift in her dream. Very slowly she opens her eyes and encounters the boy pressed tightly to her and she remembers last night. Smiling, she kisses the top of his curly brown hair now messy from going to bed wet. She loves watching Jonba sleep, he's so soft and angelic, like a perfect little doll. It's not something she got to experience much when she was Dead. Her arm wraps around him protectively and she closes her eyes once more before seeking Hiro.

She finds his thigh and then the rest of him with a grin before she slowly pushes herself up on one arm. Wincing as her hair gets caught on Jonba's tiny fingers. Once she manages to get herself lose she runs her fingers back through the long strands to get it away from her face and leans forward to kiss Hiro. "Good morning, my love. You smell like breakfast."

"I made breakfast." He smiles as he pulls off the napkins protecting the food. "I was not sure if you wanted Jonba to have an omelette, so I brought some cereal for him."

He looks down at the sleeping boy and gently rubs his arm. "Wakey, wakey, Cookie Monster."

"Jonba can have the omelette, I'll have the cereal." She responds softly, laying back down her eyes closing as she starts to wake up a bit more. Jonba whimpers and rolls pressing his face into his mother's stomach. Reaching down she runs her fingers through his fine hair before picking him up and whispering something in his ear.

Very slowly he blinks his brown eyes open and turns to look at Hiro and breakfast. Still being rather grumpy Gus, he sits up and picks up his sippy cup and starts in on his orange juice.

"Not morning people."
