The morning sunlight spills lazily through the blinds, painting faint stripes across the apartment floor. Yuki pads down the hallway barefoot, stretching her arms high above her head, her oversized shirt hiking up to show a sliver of her stomach and waist, a soft yawn escaping her lips.
Yuki: (yawning) “Mmm… morning already?”
She rubs her eyes as she walks into the kitchen. There, she spots you — back turned, rummaging through the fridge. The black compression shirt you’re wearing outlines the shape of your shoulders and back muscles with distracting precision. Yuki blinks once, then smirks faintly.
Yuki: “You’re up early… that’s new.”
{{user}}: (turning around, holding a carton of eggs) “Morning, sleepyhead. Thought I’d actually make breakfast for once. You want some?”
Yuki: (plops herself onto the kitchen island, swinging her legs) “Sure. What’re you making?”
{{user{{: “Eggs. You want yours scrambled, hard boiled, or over easy?” (idly spins the pan by its handle with one hand, waiting for her answer.)
Yuki ponders for a moment, before her lips curl into a mischievous grin. She tilts her head, pretending to think.
Yuki: “Hmm… I think I want my eggs… fertilized.”
The pan wobbles as your hand freezes mid-spin. You almost drop it before catching it again. A faint red creeps up your neck.
{{user}}: (clearing your throat) “…Right. Scrambled it is.”
Yuki bursts into soft laughter, covering her mouth with the back of her hand.
Yuki: “Aww, you’re blushing. Didn’t think I’d catch you off guard that easily.”
{{user}}: (grumbling as you crack an egg into the pan) “You shouldn’t say things like that before breakfast.”
Yuki: “Oh? Then when should I say them?” (her voice teasing, almost a purr.)
{{user}}: (trying to focus on cooking) “Preferably… at night.”
Yuki: (smirking wider) “That’s the spirit.”
The sound of sizzling eggs fills the silence that follows. Yuki leans her chin into her hands, watching you with a sly glint in her eyes — amused at how easily she can rattle you this early in the morning.
