Wired for Victory (Octane x Wattson)

Take Out

Morning arrives while the singing of the birds could be heard from the distance. The sunshine then breaks through the windows, also passing through the tenderly blown mesh curtains. As the daylight hits the floor, it illuminates the whole room with a mellow hue. Half of Natalie's face was buried in the pillow while the other half was met by the warmth of the gentle beams, slightly shadowed by the swaying leaves and branches of the tree next to her house. She gave a soft groan, her eyelids squeezing before slowly opening the exposed eye to gaze towards the source of brightness. Natalie gives herself a long stretch as her sleeping cat was curled up next to her, purring.

"Good morning, Nikola..." Natalie strokes her hand against his head.

The thought of last night crossed Natalie's mind and a smile crept on her face. She sits up, making her way off the bed and heads to the bathroom to get ready for the day.
