You awoke in a daze, your mind releasing you from an unpleasant dream, the details of which fading before you could recall its events, leaving you with a relatively uneasy feeling.
You lift your paw to rub the grit out of your eyes causing a sudden movement in the corner of your peripheral vision, you blink to find Loona cuddled up next to you, her gentle breathing putting your worries to rest. Lifting your head, you take a look at the digital clock on her bedside table, it read ten minutes to nine.
With a groan, you drop your head back on the soft pillow below, "Loona?" You whisper into her ear, lightly shaking her arm to wake her.
"Hmm" she hummed without opening her eyes, "Five more minutes" she mumbled, snuggling up closer to your chest in an attempt to silence you.
"I do believe we have to go to work to make money," you note sarcastically, "And I'd rather not get on Blitzø's bad side"
Forcing open her eyes, she sleepily began to stare into yours, clearly unimpressed by your persistence, "Fine" she replied calmly, kissing you on the nose before slipping out from the covers. She proceeded to yawn, picking up your clothes from the night before and forcefully throwing them onto your chest "Get dressed, it would be awkward enough for Blitzø to find you in here clothed" she joked before disappearing into her bathroom.
You grab the clothes that had been thrown at you, "Wait, Blitzø's here?" You ask with concern. Stepping up beside her, you begin to lean on the door frame as she finished brushing her teeth.
Turning on the tap, she swelled out her mouth before spitting the water into the drain, "Maybe, I'll check" she replied, placing her toothbrush into a jar and proceeding out of the room.
You sigh while taking her place by the sink, first splashing your face with cold water to try and wake yourself up, and as you didn't have your toothbrush decided to settle for a quick swell with water to get rid of the musky morning taste, "Ahh better," you smile to yourself in the mirror, causing you to notice your coat sticking out at odd angles as a product of the night before. You frown, quickly sticking your head out from behind the door to find Loona had returned, "Do you have a brush I can use for my fur?" You ask without pause.
"Um yeah sure, use this" she answered while handing you a black hair brush. You swiftly take it out from her hands and re-enter the bathroom to smooth your coat down.
As you lifted the brush to your head, you pause for a moment, noticing a bunch of Loona's long grey and white fur caught between its bristles, forcing you to smile as you start to use it. The thought of using the same brush as her sending an odd thrill up your spine. After smoothing down the persistent hairs on your upper chest you start to clamber into your clothes.
Heading out of the bathroom, you see Loona perched at her dresser, her focus being fully captivated on perfecting her makeup, "You almost ready to go?" You ask.
"Yep," she replied beginning to haphazardly place every bottle and tub back into her bag "Blitzø has already fucked off, so we won't need to sneak you out after all" She smiled as she stood up to meet you.
Before leaving, you both grab an apple from a generously diverse fruit bowl to snack on before leaving the apartment, "So we might have to go to your place in future" she mentioned while locking the door.
Your mind got an instant shot of dopamine as the words left her muzzle, "Does that mean this will become a regular occurrence?" You ask with a grin, unable to contain your excitement.
"Do you want it to be?" She countered.
Her eyes began to seek out yours, despite your best efforts to avoid them, "Absolutely"
