The next morning was odd, to say the least. You jolted up in the soft bed, a sleeping incubus by your side. At first, you were quite shocked by the environment since you were now... living quite lavishly.

You sank back into the warm bed and eyed the porch of your bedroom that let in a cool breeze. A soft smile slowly enveloped your face as arms wrapped around your waist. His body was now up against yours as you felt the warmth pour onto your back. Keigo buried his face, nuzzling himself into your neck as he murmured incoherent words.

"Hmmm?" You hummed out softly as Keigo tightened his grasp with a glistening smirk. "What's the matter, sweetheart?"

"You seemed a bit anxious... waking up all bewildered like that, are you scared?" His voice was hoarse and much lower than usual. The morning voice blues for him, yet you found it attractive.

"I'm just still getting used to the whole-"

"Underworld?" He chimed in with a smile as he let go of your figure and laid back in bed, looking at your warm and happy expression.

"I'm sorry... guess I'm just overly worried..."

"That's normal sweetpea, I think you just need to let go of the... past? Maybe that's what's dragging you down!" He sat up in bed, stretching out both his wings and arms. "How about I make you some breakfast? "

"Breakfast sounds ni- ARE YOU NAKED?!" Keigo looked over and pulled off the covers with a laugh.

"How did you not notice?"

"Listen... I am half asleep I wasn't... thinking straight!" He chuckled a bit and walked towards the double door of your bedroom. He turned to face you with a smile.

"Excuses Excuses!" He exited the room as a single feather swirled around and landed promptly in the comfort of your lap. You rolled your eyes and called out.

"Excuses?! I'm not the one that's just... letting shit breathe! Go wear a robe?!"

"Don't feel like it!" You heard some distance in his voice as you crossed your arms still holding the feather close to your chest.

"That dumb bird..." The breeze slowly came in, this time it smelt faintly of ember and roses. It was both inviting and warming. Unlike the syrupy smell that seeped through from behind the double doors.

🤍

Some more time passed as you laid back in the lush bed holding the feather. It was odd to wake up and not worry about the earthly world. You chuckled at the thought. You seemed to take notice that now practically everything or close to pretty much everything was done for you.

Of course, you needed some time to get used to it, but the idea of ​​not worrying about work or school for that matter brought a slight smile to your face.

You let yourself go from your daydream at the sound of nearing footsteps. Seeing the door being kicked open and a happy incubus walk-in made you laugh.

"What's all this?!" You questioned as he laid down a plate of waffles that was beautifully decorated with an assortment of exotic berries and generously topped with powdered sugar.

"Well breakfast of course, what? Did you think I wouldn't treat my wife-to-be an amazing breakfast?" He laid across the bed with a smile and stole a piece of your waffle along with a few berries. You watched him stuff his face as you graciously poured the syrup onto the waffles and ate.

"Y'know I was thinking..."

"Hmmm?!" You propped your head up, face now full of waffles and berries.

"Maybe after breakfast... you can have dessert~" He whispered those words out with a much lower voice than before, it felt as if it had slipped from his mouth like honey as you peered down and looked into the globes of his honeydew eyes.

"If dessert is you, I think I can pass till later right now... waffles are on my mind." You continued eating dismissing the complete shock that laid present on Keigo's face.

"... OKAY OW?!" He spat out as you laughed. You took another bite of your waffle and in between chews you blurted out.

"Listen all I'm saying is food is life!" You hummed and continued your pleasant morning of waffle eating. Keigo now eyeing both your palate and your happy little expression.

"I regret giving you those waffles."

"Hah, sucker!"
