Chapter 46 : New furniture

*Juliet*

“So when do the trucks get here?” Eric asks through a yawn.

Eric and Marcus are sprawled on my couch, waiting for the furniture truck to pull up. Marcus is currently snoring peacefully on the opposite side of the couch but both men are taking up the whole thing whereas pacing the living room is the only thing keeping me from freaking out.

“You know, you guys didn’t have to show up this early,” I say with a laugh.

“You said the delivery time would be from 8 a.m. to noon so we’re here,” Eric grumbles and whacks Marcus, jolting him awake. Marcus grumbles and rubs his eyes with a big yawn.

“You guys want any food or something to drink?” I try to be a good hostess since they did show up to help out.

“Too early for that,” Eric says but Marcus perks up a little.

“How are you a teacher?” I ask with a laugh. “You have to get up early for that.”
