  You woke up to the sun streaming through the curtains. Your first thought was that the sun was trying to screw you over by shining in the one spot your eyes were. It could have chosen anywhere else, but nooooooo, you thought. You grumbled and rolled over to see a sleeping ninja boy laying on his back, snoring lightly. Your irritation melted as you laid gaze to the sun illuminating the pretty poison boy, turning his hair and eyelashes golden. His skuntank was laying on his legs, your zorua was laying on his chest, legs tucked under it, and your applin was sitting on his forehead. You melted internally when he let out a slightly louder snore, then sweetly smiled. You had no doubt he was having a good dream as he let out a soft little happy sigh. You couldn't help but wonder what he was dreaming about, but you realized he could be dreaming about whimsicott shaped ice cream for all you knew. There really wasn't a good way to guess, so you decided to wait and ask him when he woke. You got up and started towards the bathroom, intending to wash your face to help wake you up, but you paused when you heard a groan from behind you. You turned to see Atticus starting to wake up.

  "Y/n...? What time is it..." He mumbled, not fully awake. "What in the world?" He grumbled when he noticed his predicament. The pokemon laying on him were all still sleeping and refused to move. He carefully lifted his arm, careful not to wake your zorua, and picked up the applin sitting on his forehead.

  "Why... why is there an applin on my head...?" He asked, still sounding rather groggy. You giggled, walking over and taking your applin from him. He blinked up at you, the most adorably sleepy look on his face, and the sunlight shining on his face turning his hair and eyelashes golden. You turned back towards the bathroom to try and hide your blush, but it didn't work very well.

  "Are thee alright? Thou looked a bit flushed," Atticus said, and you froze, your brain running through any and all excuses.

  "Uh, n-no, it's probably the lighting," you mumbled, not sounding very convincing. One glance back at Atticus, one of his eyebrows raised, and you hoped that he didn't press further, as you knew what he might say.

  "Mmhm," he responded, sounding smug, and also somewhat triumphant. "And why may it be that you are flushed, again?" He teased. You scrounged for any response you could find, and after a second, without thinking,  you blurted, "Wouldn't you like to know, pretty boy!" Now it was his turn to become flustered, but after a second, he recollected himself.

  "Flirting now, are we? I reckon I could guess why thou was flushed," he replied smoothly. You had now gone from light pink in color to strawberry red in color, and you were glad you were still facing towards the bathroom.

  "Ah, thine ears have gone all red now," he teased. You grumbled, and set applin on the floor, heading back to your original course to the bathroom to wash your face. Applin hopped over and jumped back on Atticus's forehead.

  "Oof! Y-Y/n, your pokemon is attacking me!" He joked.

  "Yeah, get 'im, applin!" You teased, and applin chirped happily. Atticus chuckled, and this woke your sleeping zorua, who stood up, and turned so its and Atticus's faces were about an inch apart.

  "Ah! Good morning, little fellow. Sorry for waking thee, I did not mean to," he said to it. It yipped at him, and he smiled. "My only request is that thou not sneeze in my face," he said jokingly, and zorua yipped indignantly. You snickered softly, and he looked at you, happiness in his eyes. Suddenly, he looked surprised, like he had realized something, and his face broke into a giant grin.
