It was early, the sun hadn't even fully risen yet. Still slowly making its way up. It was like this every morning. You got up before Nanami, even before the sun got up. You were never an early morning person, but Nanami always left so early. This was the only time you got to see him until late in the evening. It had become a routine for you now, got up early, made him coffee and some breakfast. Then sat with him until he had to leave. It was a nice quiet morning every day.

Getting out of bed, you made your way to the kitchen. Tiptoeing trying to keep quiet. Letting him rest those extra couple of minutes. He deserved it after all he did for you. Kept you safe from the curses, after all, you couldn't see them. You were just a regular citizen, not a sorcerer like him. Getting him his morning coffee made you feel useful as foolish as it sounded. Helping to take him any way you could.

Instead of turning on the main light, you opted for turning on the cabinet lights. Letting them lightly light the kitchen. Even though Nanami was far off in the bedroom. Still keeping the apartment dark. Getting up the coffee machine, he press on and went to work on his breakfast. He always liked fried eggs with either leftover rice or some bread. Setting up a pan for the eggs, you got some rice from last night. Warming it up in the microwave. Enough for both of you. It wasn't long until the rice and eggs were ready. By the time you plated the food, the coffee maker went off. Pouring a cup for him and you. You could hear his footsteps in the hall, coming towards the kitchen. Fixing your coffee, adding milk and sugar while you left his black. Nanami was in the kitchen by the time you were done with the coffees, feeling his arms slip around your waist pulling you towards him ensured it. His face was resting on your shoulder, looking over at the coffees.

"I never understood how you could like all that in your coffee." His voice was low and raspy.

"I actually like my coffee to taste good." He mocked your coffee taste every morning.

Grabbing his and your coffee, turning around handing his to him. "Here's your gross coffee." He let out a muffled laugh at your words. You always did mock his taste in food and drinks. Once he took his, you made your way to set your coffee down on the breakfast bar. Before grabbing the food and setting it in the same place. Looking over you saw Nanami leaning against the counter, slowly sipping his coffee. Once you sat down, he got the hint and joined you. Sitting beside you on the stools. You both didn't speak much while you ate. A few pleasantries were shared between you two. It was until he was finished, putting his dish in the sink that he turned to you. Watching you finish eating.

"Enjoying what you see?" Your mouth was filled with food, your hand came up to try to cover him seeing any as you spoke.

"I don't want you going out today." His eyes were staring straight at you.

"That's not fair. I haven't been outside since last week." You couldn't hide the look on your face. Like a puppy, you had just been hurt.

Nanami didn't say anything. He liked keeping you inside, stating it was safer. There was just too much danger out there. Especially with you being unable to see what he could. He insisted it would just give him a piece of mind to know you're safe at home.

Walking towards you, Nanami placed his hand on your upper arm. lifting you up gently. There was no choice, but to follow. He was a man of few words. Often showing you through actions. Like now, keeping his hold on you while he leads you to the living room, then towards the large window looking down at the city. Nanami peeled back the curtains, revealing the city line. The sun was now visible in the sky, it still barely lit the city. The city looked calming. As if the city was still waking up. "See." That was all Nanami could say. You didn't understand how the same old city view you saw every morning indicated you weren't allowed out today. You just stared out the window. Trying to see what he was talking about, was there a road close, construction, anything that wasn't usually there. What was there? What was he talking ab- Oh! There was snow. The realization must have appeared obviously on your face because you heard Nanami chuckle.
