What it's like to wake up next to them...
Falling asleep with MASATO AIZAWA is almost guaranteed to result in you waking up in his arms. Hopefully you're not too sensitive to heat because he doesn't care what temperature the room is, he's not going to be able to shut his eyes until he's got you in his arms. He's a living, breathing space heater. So, either he'll be keeping you warm or he'll be the reason you wake up drenched in sweat. He sleeps in nothing but a pair of trunks and a single sock– the second sock almost always manages to slip away at some point in the night. He's a big fan of skin to skin contact. So he encourages you to come to bed dressed as scantily as possible. He's already a heavy guy but he transforms into a boulder once he's asleep, making it sort of difficult to pry his arm off. He understands that you have things to do and places to be, but that won't stop him from snaking his dominant arm around you and guiding you back into bed if he manages to wake up when you're trying to sneak away. His eyes would barely be open as he's pressing sleepy kisses against your skin and mumbling, "Mm, no... Not yet. Just a bit longer." And "a bit" could mean anywhere from 5 minutes to an entire hour, if you're not careful. You'd have to be firm with him, otherwise you're not getting up til he's ready to part with you or until he's gotten his fill of kissing you– whichever comes first. Morning breath be damned.
If you think AKIRA NISHIKIYAMA is handsome after he's gussied himself up for the day, you must have lost your mind the first morning you woke up next to him. He often wakes with his head resting above his pillow of folded arms, his actual pillow somewhere behind him. Some of the hair that he's pushed out of his face, falls across his cheekbones, sways with the steady breath he pushes through his nose and tickles his forearms. He peeks at you through heavy slits, blinking until his vision is clear enough to notice you staring at him. His lips are puffy when he first wakes. It's like he's pouting at you. It's not often that he sleeps well but he realizes that the nights he has is when he's often sleeping next to you. If he's gotten decent sleep, he wakes in a slightly playful mood, placing his chilly fingers over your eyes as he teases you for staring. He's a light sleeper though, so if you toss and turn, so will he. Even so, no matter how tired he is, he won't waste too long in bed after grumbling, "Ugh, what time is it?" Doesn't matter what time you say, if he sees sunlight peeking through the curtains, he'll stretch and roll out of bed– not without stealing a few kisses of course. If you're creative (read: handsy) enough, he can be convinced to stay under the covers with you a little longer.
It took being loved by you for REINA to realize that it was perfectly okay to rise and fall as she is. When she was growing up, her mother taught her to wake before her partner so that they'd "have something nice to look at" first thing in the morning. In the beginning, she did that with you. She woke up before the sun to freshen up, make her face and fix her hair then slink back into bed with you until you were ready to wake up. It took a lot of convincing for her to rid herself of that habit but now, she sleeps until she's well rested and wakes with nothing but a layer of her favorite night cream on her face and the straps of her cute little night slip sliding off her slender shoulders. Her dark hair is often pulled back into a loose, low bun but by the time she's awake, lots of it has freed itself and is strewn about her pillow. She's immensely affectionate first thing in the morning and so one habit that hasn't died is her slipping out of bed to at least brush her teeth. Once she's done that, she's cuddling you, pressing peeks against your cheek and whispering about the day ahead, and more. "Well, good morning, you. Sleep well? Ahh, this is nice, isn't it?" The woman is needy as all hell in the morning. The best prescription for that ailment is your affection.
Unless you're an equally early riser, waking up to KAZUMA KIRYU often means waking to a half empty bed, his side of the covers tucked haphazardly beside you to keep you warm in his place. He hardly ever waits for you to wake to get started on breakfast. If you don't rise to the familiar aroma of your favorites swirling past your nose or his fruitless attempt to muffle his heavy footsteps throughout the house, then he'll wake you personally just before breakfast gets cold. His big warm hand is cautious when he taps you, not wanting to startle you. His voice is even deeper in the silence of the morning when he says, "Breakfast is ready. You're welcome to join me but I don't mind if you need more sleep." You can't count on him to stay in bed and cuddle with you unless you practically hold the man hostage. After all, he wouldn't even stay in bed when he's ill. He's not gonna do it if he's got no excuse to.
If you ever wanted to know when you could catch GORO MAJIMA in his most vulnerable state, look no further. Waking up next to him is a rare privilege that one shouldn't take lightly. He's lying there practically naked, nothing but a thin pair of briefs. He's either just fallen asleep a few hours ago or he's lying there with his one eye barely open as he takes you in, contemplating if it's a good time to try to sneak out of bed. Sometimes, he'll simply lie there, eye smiling at you as you sleepily reach to brush the stray strands of his bedhead from hanging over his scarred eye and the cute mole just below it. Although he's annoyed by not getting much sleep, he's pretty much grown used to it at this point. He sees getting to watch you get enough shut eye for the both of you as a perk. Any time he catches you stirring, he shushes you and tries to lull you back to sleep. When that doesn't work, he'll smile at you as he curls his pointer under your chin and whisper, "Stubborn, ain'tcha?" As if he's one to talk.
Early to bed, early to rise– TAIGA SAEJIMA sees little pleasure in lounging around in bed in the mornings. In his mind, bed is either for sleep or a certain extra curricular activity. So, unless your fingers are slipping beneath the waistband of his pajama pants, expect him to roll out of bed shortly after he wakes. There is a benefit to this! As long as you've slept next to him, you never have to worry about oversleeping for anything. He's got a natural, internal alarm clock that never fails. While he's probably not going to lie in bed until you're ready to wake, he does allow you to use his broad chest as a pillow all night if that's what you want. He's pretty versatile in that way. He can either hold you all night or sleep on opposite sides of the bed with your backs facing the other. After all, for him, just having you near him is more than enough. This is why he prefers to wait for you to get out of bed before he starts his morning tea. He likes to quietly share a cup with you before you go about your day.
