-+ 6AM +-
liam and bryce were laying in bed asleep together, simply letting the world pass by as they cuddled. bryce laid on his back with his arm around liam who was huddled close to him. ever since bryce started letting liam sleep in the same bed as him, he noticed liam always slept in the same position. lying on his side (facing bryce) with his back arched and his knees pulled close to his chest. the weird part is that he'd never done that when he was sleeping on the couch. bryce didn't mind this change in sleeping position though, he actually found it rather comfortable.
since liam and bryce started sleeping next to each other they always did the same thing when it was time for bryce to get ready for work in the morning. they'd both wake up, keeping their eyes closed pretending to be asleep until the other person did something. if bryce acted first, it would be something like running his fingers liam's hair or whispering something to him. on the rare occasions where liam happened to do something, he just giggled. bryce could always tell they were rather nervous giggles.
the alarm clock went off, signaling it was time for them to get up. liam usually got up with bryce in the mornings to tell him goodbye before he went to work. the two did their typical thing, waiting for the other to make a move. within seconds bryce heard liam trying to hold back his laughter.
B - "wow.. that's faster than usual."
bryce whispered.
L - "i just— can't hold it back this time..!"
liam attempted to whisper back, snickering slightly between every few words.
B - "hm.. seeing as you're the one next to the nightstand, you should get up first."
they continued whispering to each other.
L - "wwwhat if i say no..?"
...
they finally opened their eyes, making looking at each other as bryce's expression slowly changed.
next thing liam knew, he was being pushed off of the bed and onto the ground. he let out a few playful screams as he listened to bryce laugh in a "that's what happens" type of way.
bryce sat up, yawning while seeming to ignore liam on the ground in a joking way. he stood up and walked to the kitchen to make breakfast, narrowly avoiding stepping on the green guy on the ground.
liam sat up, rubbing his head.
L - "heyyy! that's not fair. you've never done that before..!"
liam said with laughter clear in his voice.
B - "have now. so, do you want two eggs or ONE?" (perhaps ref)
L - "oh aah.. im not hungry this morning actually. i.. maaayyy or may not have had a super big dinner last night with owen."
B - "so that's why you were out so late? good to know."
liam stood up and walked over to the couch, sitting down and scrolling through videos while bryce got ready for work.
-+ 6:30AM +-
bryce was searching the place thoroughly, looking for his missing keys. liam was watching, as if this was entertaining to him.
B - "diiid you put my keys somewhere..? if i can't find them in 10 minutes i'll be late to work."
L - "nope. i didn't move them. i can help you look though?"
they both spent the next few seconds searching for the keys, until liam eventually found them.
L - "ah! here they are."
liam stood up, bringing the keys to bryce.
B - "oh, nice. thanks babe."
bryce took the keys from liam's hands and kissed him on the cheek. he turned to the door, taking a few steps towards it before looking back for a second. he saw liam standing there blushing, stuttering while trying to speak.
L - "uh.. y-yeah.... you're.. welcome..."
liam stared down, fidgeting with his hands nervously.
B - "still not used to it, hm?"
L - "...yeah. don't get me wrong, it definitely feels right with you, i'm just.. not... very familiar with affection.. especially romantic. you are only my second partner after all.."
B - "heh.. sometimes i forget about that. i guess i'll try to get you used to it then."
before liam could respond, bryce was already gone. he walked back over to the couch and sat down, wanting to think a bit.
