Pairing: Royality

word count: about 500 words :)

TW: absolutely terrible fluff, mention of someone shirtless (idk, it's Roman and it['s literally mentioned like- once) and cudddddddles!

Let's get this thing started!}

7:32 am.

Roman sighed in relief as they checked the time on his phone, wincing at the harsh light it emitted. 7:32 am. Patton was always up at this time, and he was the only one, too. Logan was up at 9am on the dot on a Saturday, and Virgil didn't wake till noon most days anyway. Patton was up at around seven, every day with only a couple rarities, but began to make breakfast for the four at precisely 8:15 (not like- Roman had studied or even thought about Patton- oh no of course not- that'd be preposterous-) and so the emotional trait would be- well, he'd be doing nothing right now. Perfect.

Roman stumbled out of bed and into the hallway, the temperature change making him shiver- oh, and the boy wasn't wearing a shirt. He walked, as quiet as he could- not very quietly- down the narrow halls, stopping and knocking softly as he arrived at Patton's sky blue door, eyes still struggling to focus from having not fully awoken yet. Said bubbly man shouted a way-too-chirpy-for-7-am "come in!" and so Roman did.

Patton, as expected, was sat bundled in blankets on his bed, laptop balanced on his lap,presumably watching kitten videos as he sometimes did- that or The Office bloopers. Upon entering, Patton sent him a warm, somewhat concerned smile and scooted over a little.

"Hey, Ro dear, a little early for you to be awake isn't it?" The man asked, voice low and soft as to not awake the others. Virgil was a pretty light sleeper, despite sleeping in so much. It took Roman a little while to process the question and form his own answer.

"M' tired, and I want cuddles 'nd I figured you'd be up and not too busy." Roman shrugged lazily, a smile on his face though.

"I'm guessing you were up late again last night, I could hear the bootlegs from my room!" He chuckled, gesturing to the space next to him. "Come on then, snuggle monster. I have another thirty minutes before I gotta be up." And well, Roman couldn't resist that smile.

He crawled into bed next to Patton, immediately latching onto the boy and appreciating the warmth. The princely trait sighed in content, closing his eyes almost immediately, enjoying the quiet. He felt Patton shift, probably putting the laptop away before snuggling up to roman, the two just becoming a tangle of blankets and limbs. It was a pure sight to behold. Before Patton could even mutter an "I love you" Roman's breathing had evened out, asleep in the other trait's arms. Patton smiled smugly,setting his alarm for 8am and cuddling into Roman's embrace. And there the two right brain traits stayed, welcoming each other's embrace and putting anything else out of their mind for the time being. this is the now, the present, and neither would have it any other way.
