Trey's House

20 weeks....

Trey woke to the sound of his alarm. He reached over to the nightstand and swiped it off, turning to see if it had woken Lexi. It hadn't; she stirred but went right back to sleep. She was fast asleep, soft snores escaping her pouty lips.

He had to go to work much against his will because a lot of work was piled up waiting for him - as Gale had kindly reminded yesterday. The boy was buckling under pressure from his partners and Trey had to step in. There was also the issue of finding out if there was a thieving mole in his company.

He looked down at Lexi again, wishing he didn't have leave her alone in bed. He just had to. Reaching for her pillow - which she had abandoned in favour of his chest - he tucked it beneath her head and pulled away himself, watching her get comfortable.
