Chapter Text
Jack muttered softly as he nestled closer against Gabriel his hot and muscled chest. Meaningless he circles his finger on the other his skin. Not sensual, but just to show his affection for his co-worker, his boyfriend. "What time is it?" He heard Gabriel growl after some time and he lifted his head to look up, chuckling softly afterwards. "5am handsome." Jack told him amused and placed a kiss on Gabriel his heart, feeling the beating underneath his lips before he completely pulled away, stepping out of bed. The two of them were used to get up early, so they rarely tried to linger longer in bed. "I'll go shower." Jack said before he turned, grabbing a towel and he made his way to the bathroom. "Sí, conejito." Gabriel muttered, rolling on his stomach as he hugged his own pillow, not ready to leave the comfort of their shared bed just yet. After finishing his shower and drying himself properly, Jack tossed his towel over Gabriel his head and chuckled while he started to dress himself. There was one way to get the commander out of his bed and that was, disturbing his sole comfort. With some groans and grunts, probably some curses in Spanish, the Latino finally stepped out of bed and went to Jack, hugging him from behind. "Buenos dias, mi vida." He told Jack and softly kissed his lover his neck. Jack leaned comfortably in the embrace and placed his hands on the arms of Gabriel. "Good morning handsome." he replied happily. He treasured these mornings, the calm ones where it was just him and Gabriel, both of them calm and comfortable. Gabriel was only willing to show this side of his to Jack and not to anyone else, but it didn't matter to Jack. It just showed how comfortable the other was with and around him.
When they both were awake enough, Jack always made sure Gabriel wouldn't leave their room too early due to his bad morning mood, they made their way downstairs to the kitchen where they were met with a lot of laughter. Jack peeked into the kitchen and just facepalmed himself. Gabriel just walked in and looked like he was in shock. The whole kitchen looked like some war zone. Batter, floar, kitchenware, even eggs, were clutchered all around. And in the middle of them, covered in the most floar of all, stood Jesse McCree while laughing his ass off. Lucio who tried to flip a pancake looked like someone had smashed a egg on top of his head, Junkrat was...mixing the batter... "They are making pancakes." deadpanned a calm Hanzo from his seat, sipping his tea with a Ana, who kept strict eye on the fire while drinking her tea, next to him. It was clear that the three bakers, probably with help from Reinhardt, managed to get a table with seats right in the middle of the kitchen so they all could eat together. Gabriel pressed back a chuckle as he took a seat, pulling the one next to it backwards to gesture Jack to sit there. "I'm not cleaning this up." Jack muttered and Lucio replied while rolling his eyes. "Don't worry Dad, we will." he said. "Jesse is teaching us to bake American pancakes!" He continued happily and Jack tried to hide his smile behind his cup of coffee, this was a messy morning for certain. Slowly more people gathered into the kitchen and within moments the mess became bigger, but the atmosphere louder and more amusing to the most of them.
After eating some pancakes Jack and Gabriel retreated into the livingroom, after Ana assured them she would keep a sharp eye on the cleaning, sighing out as they sat down on the couch, Jack leaning against Gabriel with a laughter. "A moment of peace." Gabriel muttered while closing his eyes. "Enjoy it while it lasts." Jack teased him and he wasn't even done speaking or Genji rushed into the room with a excited Hana Song behind him and they turned on the tv, immediately logging in into a stream as they started a game, sometimes mocking the elderly couple on the couch. Before he knew it, Jack found himself between the two younger ones and randomly pressed buttons to play this game called Rayman Origins, while Genji and Hana their characters kept slapping his.
Gabriel managed to run from them, deciding to go to the gym. He wasn't the only one who enjoyed some training in the morning and he easily spotted Reinhardt and Zarya, focused on their exercises. He made his way to a treadmill and calmly started to run, slowly speeding up. "Hi!" he got startled when Tracer suddenly appeared next to him. "Tramposa." he muttered and suddenly found himself unbalanced as she pressed the speed up button a few times and he ran faster. "Wow! hey!" he yelled out but she zipped away already. He heard Reinhardt suddenly grunt louder. "Mein gott! These weights are suddenly heavy!" He said in surprise and soon some Russian swears mixed in as well. Gabriel made a mental note he would let Tracer pay for this. "Hi!" He prepared himself for more speed, but she smashed the stop button, the treadmill stopping on instant and he stumbled over his feet, falling flat face on the treadmill and cursed in Spanish, soon finding Reinhardt and Zarya next to him. "Eta tak razdrazhayet. Let's teach her a lesson." Zarya said, picking up her weapon and Gabriel couldn't agree more. "It's hamster hunt time." Gabriel agreed with her, pulling his own shotguns. Reinhardt looked confused at the both of them, he hadn't thought of bringing his hammer with him, but he picked up a rolled up yoga matt and smacked one side on his free hand, ready to smack Tracer with it.
