There he was, your hulking rabbit demi-human boyfriend, exactly where you expected to find him. Hunched over at the kitchen counter, delicately lowering marshmallows onto a mountain of whipped cream. Barnabas was making hot chocolate, again. He was always making something, it's why he was so soft bodied in the winters.

His long ears twitched and suddenly, he whipped around to face you, a wide smile on his lovely lips. Hair curling around his flushed cheeks as his nose twitched happily. Barnie was as readable as a book with big letters.

"Hey pumpkin," Barnabas greeted, voice soft with affection. He forgot the drinks on the counter and practically bounded over to you. Already wrapping you up in his arms as he leaned over to press a gentle kiss to your cheek. "Sleep well? Your nap was pretty long today, it's already dark out. Guess that's winter for you, huh?"
