Jenna hummed to herself as she scrubbed some excess food off a plate before placing it in the dishwasher. Something as simple as a nice, uninterrupted meal with the family seemed like more than a blessing to her. Aside from having two little ones running around the house, the wolfess and her panther husband were both registered heroes with the BOS and that meant nighttime patrols. This evening had been one where neither of them was scheduled so it gave her and Jason plenty of time to spend with Jonathon and Amanda. She smiled slightly as she heard the heavy footfalls coming up behind her, because she knew exactly what was coming next.

“Hey there sweetheart,” Jason whispered before kissing her neck and wrapping his arms around her midsection. “The little rascals are finally in bed now, but if you waited a bit I could have helped out with the dishes too.”

Jenna giggled at the kiss and then flicked Jason on the nose with the dishcloth as she closed the washer. “Nah, it’s fine. Besides, last time you helped you put waaaaaay too much soap in the dispenser.”

Jason just sheepishly grinned as he leaned against the counter, “At least I grabbed the right bottle ‘cause they all look alike to me. Besides, Jonathon and Amanda had a lot of fun playing with a kitchen full of soapy bubbles.”

“Right up until I said if they stuck around any longer they’d have to help clean up,” Jenna said as she set the wash cycle before drying off her paws. “I’d never seen them run out of a room so fast. I’m wondering if we’ll have a couple speedsters on our hands in a few years.”

“It’s possible, but until then we have the rest of the evening to ourselves sooooo…”

Jenna did her best to keep her sudden giggles down as Jason hooked his hands under her armpits and lifted his wife up before setting her down on the counter. Holding her gently, they both leaned in together, lips meeting at the halfway point in a tender kiss. They’d been together for years now, but that didn’t mean any of the magic had faded as Jenna hooked her legs around Jason to pull herself closer to her.

“You know,” Jason whispered with a small grin when they finally broke the kiss, “it’s been a while since we got to have a date night.”

The wolfess nodded in response, “We both have a free night like this next Tuesday. If Hestia or Kayla could watch the twins then…”

“Daaaaaaaaaad…”

The voice that suddenly drifted down the hall stopped the two dead in their tracks. Jason’s response was to look up at the ceiling with a ‘Why now?’ look while Jenna could just barely suppress her giggles. “You know, you’d think I’d be a little disappointed she always calls for you to check under the bed and whatnot, but I’m really not.”

“Gee, thanks for that Mrs. Smartypants,” Jason said as he stuck out his tongue. Giving her a little peck on the forehead, he started backing away towards the hallway, “Keep that train of thought going, I’ll be right back.”

Jenna just gave a mischievous grin and waved goodbye as Jason went to check on Amanda. At least she had decided to call for him instead of adventuring out and making the interruption just slightly more awkward.
