Please Come Back To Me

"Hey, you guys have cards! Let's play rummy!" Emily called from the living room "Em, I swear, this isn't how I want to spend my honeymoon!" Juliet snapped as she started washing up "Calm down Jules. Just one game and we can send her home." Frank kissed her shoulder and washed the messy table "One game. Get yourself over here, Emily Roberta Benson!" "Don't use my middle name, I hate it." Emily whined "You can come over after I've been married longer than a few hours. Come on and play the game." Juliet giggled and started shuffling with expert skill "Seven cards or three?" "Three." Frank grinned "More challenging." "WHAT?!? I HATE THREE!" the sisters screeched "You stink!" "Because I haven't showered since yesterday and being married is hard work." Juliet turned bright red and slapped her younger sister as she started laughing her head off "Frank, she's just a kid!" "I'm not a kid! You're barely an adult!"

Eventually the game ended and Emily went home. "Thank god, it's just us again. We both have work tomorrow and I need to pick the garden vegetables after work." Juliet yawned "I like when it's just us. So peaceful and quiet. It was great of your parents to buy us the house." Frank stretched and put an arm around her "Real great." "It's even furnished nicely." There was another knock at the door, this time it was soft and by the time the newlyweds got to the door, there was only a basket of homemade goodies on the porch "From Gran. How sweet!"
