How You Wake Him Up

Chris:
It was never difficult to wake Chris up in the morning. Most of the time, all you had to do was kiss him on the cheek, and whisper a soft good morning and he would be up. Chris was the part of that rare breed that actually liked waking up in the mornings, and getting started on his day. He liked being as productive as possible during the day and felt that the key to a productive day was getting up early. Because of this, you didn't need to wake him up often.

Gordie:
Gordie was definitely a night owl, no question about it. He got his best ideas in the middle of the night, so he would stay up until 4 in the morning writing. Because of this, waking Gordie up was like waking up a grizzly bear. Most of the time, you would let Gordie sleep until 11 in the morning just to make sure he's not sleep deprived. When it came time to finally wake him up, you would gently rub his shoulder saying, "Gordie, my love, it's time to wake up." Gordie never responded well as he would simply groan and pull the sheets over his head, trying to block you out. You would roll your eyes, feeling like a mother trying to get her small child up for school, before carefully pulling the sheets away and offering to make him breakfast. Once Gordie was fully awake, he was back to his usual chipper self, but it took about half an hour to get to that point.

Teddy:
Teddy was usually up before you as his overactive brain never let him stay asleep for too long, but every now and then you would be up before him. Naturally, you took this as an opportunity to get revenge for the many times he woke you up by tickling you. Whenever you woke up and looked over to see Teddy still asleep, you wouldn't hesitate to grab a pillow, smack him in the face with it. All the while yelling, "Wake up! Spend time with me!" This woke Teddy up pretty quickly and it wasn't long before a pillow fight broke out between the two of you. It was quite the wake up call for him.

Ace:
It was literally impossible for you to wake Ace up. His body wouldn't allow him to be woken up unless it was natural. You tried every single tactic known to man to wake him up: kissing him, whispering to him, rubbing his back, hitting him with a pillow, throwing cold water on him, everything. Nothing worked. It got to the point where you actually checked his pulse, fearing that he might be dead. Eventually his natural biology finally decided it was time to wake up, and he would slowly stir awake. It baffled you how Ace was able to sleep through all your ruckus trying to wake him up, and then just suddenly wake up on his own. Despite this, you were just grateful that he wasn't dead.

Eyeball:
You were usually up before Richie, so you were the one having to wake him up. Despite his tendency to sleep in, he was actually pretty easy to wake up in the morning. All it took was for you to start stroking his hair, and he would wake up with a smile on his face. He would then wrap an arm around you and pull you close to him, wanting to cuddle. Even though you knew that you had to get up and start the day, you would quickly cave and snuggle up with Richie. Mornings like this were always your favorites.
