Coastal Drive

 You were dreaming about the beach when you were awoken by the sensation of your cat laying on your chest. You opened your eyes to see his fuzzy face looking down at you. Just then, you heard Timothée smirk as he looked at you. You turned to him and gave him a silly face, and he laughed more. Then you couldn't help to laugh too. That's when the cat walked over to him and started laying on him. He looked so cute being overtaken by that fur ball. He smiled because he loved the little guy. He looked so cute cuddling with him.  He then asked you what you wanted to do that day, as he was petting him. You told him what you remembered about your dream and suggested that you drive up the coast on PCH. He liked that idea. As soon as the cat jumped off the bed, he leaned over and kissed you, saying, "I forgot to say good morning." You loved his little morning kisses, they were the perfect thing to wake you up. Shortly after, you both got out of bed to get ready for your day out. You, fed the cat, had a quick breakfast and took your coffee to go.  He wanted to drive, which worked out great because then you could be in charge of the music this time. As you got to the coast, it was a beautiful clear day.  The ocean was sparkling in the sunlight. There was hardly any traffic, so the drive was relaxing and scenic. You looked over at him as he was focusing on the road. He briefly looked back at you and smiled. He then asked if you were in the mood to go all the way to Santa Barbara. You loved that idea. He then took one hand off the wheel to hold your hand as he drove. The music was creating the perfect vibe with the visuals of the road. You both admired it and took it all in as you arrived to SB. He parked the car and you both walked around State Street, checking out the boutiques. After a late lunch at a local cantina, you took a stroll on the pier. By this time it was gradually becoming dusk. You took his photo as he looked out onto the water, the lights of the city visible on the coast. It was a beautiful view, especially with him in it. Shortly after, you got back in the car to head back. He held your hand again, the whole time. When you finally got home, the cat greeted you both as you entered the house. He missed you both. You went and gave him some treats. Then Timothée asked playfully, "where's my treat"? You grinned and walked over to him and gave him a big hug. He then said, "that's not enough, I require more. " You looked up at him and kissed him on the lips. He then held you tight as you were both kissing. It was a treat for you too. You didn't remember your dream this morning, but that wasn't important, because this moment was better than any dream.
