All That Time (MymblexFem!Reader)

Around autumn things begin to slow down around Mymbles home. As she and her many siblings hibernate. Almost everyone becomes more tired by the day as winter approaches. You carefully rise from your sleep and look around in the early light. Mymble still sleeps cozy in her place. It does take quite a lot of will power to not lean over and give her a bunch of kisses as a good morning. Instead you ease out of bed and tiptoe into the kitchen to make breakfast. 

Half through your second pancake a familiar voice lets out a soft yawn.
"Dear? Awake already?"
"Oh yes Mym i didn't want to wake you as you looked just so beautiful.."
She takes a seat while you serve her a couple pancakes and a cup of warm coffee.
"Despite all the sugary compliments you give, i will always be flattered."
You step over and give her a little kiss on her nose on your way to stick your face in her yet to be styled hair. 
"And you know what?"
"Hnm?"
"I love you Mymbie."

Later on in the day after you had helped the children not fight over who gets what for breakfast(there was literally only one thing served). You wander outside to find your beloved raking up twigs for fire starters and some of the kids hauling food to be preserved for spring. Just as the lot of them march out of sight you swoop over to Mymble and dip her for a couple little kisses. She giggles giddily while you trail some kisses to her ear to whisper this;
"I love you my sweet."
"Oh hoho (Y/N) i love you too but what is the occasion?"
"No occasion, i just like telling you so."

Around the time dinner is being made its just you and she in the kitchen. as you finish seasoning some fish and frying mushrooms, she continues to can things for spring eating. Mymble must know she had your attention for she looked back at you in a glance then giggled. Oh honestly, she knows she cant do something like that and get away with it. You yet again swoop up behind her and pepper her cheek in little baby kisses. 
"Why do you treat me as so Mym? You know you are downright adorable!"
She giggles again which earns a few more kisses.
"Ohhhh Mymie my sweet, this is why i love you so."
"Do you now? I don't believe i have forgotten as this makes three times today you made my heart skip its beats."
Before you could say anything else she runs from under your arm to remove the stew from the burner. Mymble shoots you a playful yet scolding glance before serving plates to the kids.

Just as the last of the children lay to sleep you slipped out the door to pick some yet to close blossoms from a near by tree. You are certain Mymble is already in bed, tired from the days work so you are clear to sneak it up to your room.
"Mym?"
"mm?"
You step into the room dramatically and hand her the branch of flowers. 
"Oh dogwood! How beautiful."
"Not nearly as beautiful as you dear."
You crawl under the blanket and envelop her in your loving embrace before nuzzling your face into her hair. She smelled sweet as though she were a little honey bee and the prettiest flowers dusted her in their pollen.
"Mymble my dear.."
She replied with a tired hum if inquiry to which you respond by holding her tighter.
"Mym my flower i love you i love you i love you i love you!! I'm sure you are still wondering why i am behaving in such a way and its a simple answer."
Mymble looks up into your eyes awaiting your explanation.
" Well, i hadn't known you my entire life.. i'm saying it so much to make up for lost time. It's for all the time we weren't together."
She gave you a quick kiss and you both nestle in the cozy bed for the night.
"Well (y/N) my sugar, i love you too and you know i need not say it so many times as you already know my adoration is boundless. Goodnight sweetie."
With your heart near bursting from being so in love you reply a simpe;
"Goodnight lil peach."
