Caden!
It was a strange feeling, having to keep off your feet. Especially when being on your feet was what you did for a living. Estella's bones had settled, but because of the strange break the healers had recommended she keep her foot elevated and to not put much pressure on it for the next few days. The potions were working, but they had to work slowly to make sure everything was completely back together.

She winced as she wiggled her toes, the only part of her foot visible from the end of her pink cast. She felt silly for finding herself in this predicament and wanted to have someone to blame other than herself, but it really was only her fault. She had let one of the older students take on a class, and while trying to not so subtly watch the girl like a hawk, she'd stumbled mid pirouette and had gotten caught up in a nearby stool.

Estella let out a sigh of frustration and dropped her head back into the arm of the couch she was currently sprawled across. Her mother had graciously taken the children off her hands, Adamina had full control of the studio, and Caden was being a wonderful husband and running some errands. The house was a beautiful, eerie silent that any working mother would be grateful for.

It had only been twelve hours and she was miserable. Estella put a pillow over her face and let out a whine. This was torture!

He looked down at her as she leaned into him, giving him the same face their daughter made whenever she didn’t get her way. She was definitely cranky, though again, she had good reason to be. Still, was amusing to him that she was acting like this was the end of her career because she had broken her foot once in all her years of dancing. He couldn’t even imagine how hard she had to have landed to break it like she had, or what kind of maneuver she was trying to do, since when he had asked her in the hospital she just kept babbling at him. They had drugged her up good and proper.

“Well it could be worse – the kids could be home.” He loved their kids more than anything, but they were all little terrors in their own way. Good kids, but terrors all the same. “Marcus and Jacob are maniacal when you’re mobile, just imagine all the hell they’d be raising knowing you were bound to the furniture.”

Her restless biting made him smirk again, and he looked down at her. “Not necessarily …” he started, though his smirk turned a bit devious as he ducked his head down to capture her lips with a kiss. He might not be able to convince her that she wasn’t going to spend an eternity on the couch, but what he could do was try to distract her from thinking about all the other things she could be doing.

"I already had Jacob not believing it was broken and---" Estella's whine was cut off by a most delicious kiss from her husband.

She melted into it quickly, her hand moving up his chest to lay on his shoulder. Hmm, yes, they were in a rather good position for a snog, especially with the children gone. With the quidditch season back in full swing, their whirlwind lifestyle had been set back into motion. Estella loved that her husband played quidditch, she was always so amazed at his skill in the air and how so many people looked up to him, but she did miss those lazy days they'd had in the off season. Especially now with the studio, where she was the boss and could stroll in whenever she pleased (usually!)!

Estella made an unconscious move to get more comfortable on Caden's lap, but her foot twisted in a strange manner and she sucked back a breath of pain. She dropped her head to his forehead as the sting passed, then smiled meekly before kissing his chin, then up his jawline.

"How precarious of a snog can we have?" she murmured, wondering how long she'd be able to feign a hurt foot so that her mother would keep their children away for a bit longer.
