Cam came slowly to consciousness. She was aware of the sun shining on her back. She rose up only as far as being able to see the clock on her bedside table. "Oh! Tom, is that you?"
"Sword? You have a family sword?" She sat up and put her feet over the edge of the bed. "One second, dear." Scrubbing her eyes and putting on her robe, she met him at the door between their rooms.
The door was already ajar. She quickly opened it fully and stepped into Tom's arms. She kissed his nose and then his face. He responded delightedly with a hug that threatened her ability to breathe as he kissed her all over her face and neck.
Finally loosening his hug he looked into her face, "Guid Marning, Ma Luv!" His hands roamed over as much of her as he could reach. They clung together. The noise from the hall told them others were up and so it was time for them to be up and doing. "God's Day to thee, Sir Thomas!, she giggled!
"It would seem we are the last to arise, Sir. Best we do. Did ye no think it?"
