21 Muse A making breakfast in bed for Muse B as a surprise.
Haruka always wake up early in the morning, often without the need of an alarm, and this didn’t change when he started living with Makoto. He would wake up early, get out of bed, careful not to wake her, take his morning bath and then make breakfast for the both of them, knowing that it was better to keep Makoto from cooking. After that, he would either go to train at the pool or start cleaning the house, something he never minded doing and that he actually enjoyed.
But on that morning, when Haruka woke up early as usual and got up from the bed, he didn’t take his usual bath. He went straight to the kitchen, putting on his apron to avoid dirtying the t-shirt he used to sleep, with a picture of his favourite character from a videogame he and Makoto used to play often, and started making breakfast. Not grilled mackerel as he was used to, but pastries, mostly filled with chocolate and some with cream. It would take him a bit of time, but Makoto wouldn’t wake up for at least another hour and he had started making something the evening before, keeping it hidden from Makoto not easy but he succedeed somehow. When everything was ready, the kitchen filled with the sweet scent, he disposed the pastries on a tray, making sure they looked fine, with a cup of warm milk and made his way toward the bedroom, careful not to drop anything. He walked quietly toward the bed, sat down on his side of the bed. “Makoto...” he started calling her name gently, setting the tray on his thighs as he reached a hand to caress her face. “Good morning, Makoto..”There wasn’t a real reason to do soemthing like this, it wasn’t an anniversary nor anything like that. He just wanted to do something for her, wating to let her know she was special for him, always had been. Words were hard but he hoped that small gestures like this would let her know how much he loved her.
