Gourmet Coffee Day

It’s National GOURMET Coffee Day!  So basically the expensive stuff!

And yes …  yes I have a snippet and it’s from my list!  Sonya who asked for Ernesto/Andrew

Ernesto’s hand reached across the bed searching for his Mate only to find cold empty sheets.   He shifted slightly to reach further in hope but to only find more cold empty sheets.   With a sigh he shifted and sat up in the bed, noticing instantly that he was alone and Mateless.   It wasn’t often the two had quiet mornings, or even the ability to wake up in the same bed.  So he was disappointed to not find Andrew in their bed.

The vacation was much needed. He hadn’t had taken time away from work in years.  He wasn’t that surprised that the Pope had plotted with everyone to get him to take two weeks, amazingly Andrew had ended up with the same time off.   Lucretia didn’t give either of them a moment to say anything before they were shipped off to Ireland.   Ernesto gave himself credit for holding back two days before he snagged his phone to check in, only to stop when Andrew stepped into the room wearing only his kilt.   After that he couldn’t find his phone.

He dragged himself out of the bed, pulled on a pair of jeans that had landed on a chair when clothes were being desperately removed last night.   Ernesto left their cozy room, made his way down the stairs into the small kitchen to groan at the heavenly smell.  “Gimmie.”

Andrew laughed and handed over the cup.  “This is the good stuff.”

“We live in Italy, all of it is the good stuff.”  He sipped the delicious coffee.  “Was hoping to find you in bed.”

“I was going to bring back coffee, but someone got up.”  He reached over and kissed his Mate softly.  “So how about we sit outside and enjoy watching the sunrise.”  

He sipped the coffee, then set it on the counter pulling Andrew close to him kissing him deeply.  “Sounds like a perfect way to start the day.”
