He woke to a cold bed, indicating that his red-haired companion had left a while ago.
He usually says something Madara mumbled to himself as he rose from the bed, brown hair in a mess akin to a bird’s nest. Kuro-san would never leave wordlessly…
Attempting to shake the drowsiness away, the brunette turned to the clock that read 04:30 am, he rubbed his eyes a bit to make sure he wasn’t hallucinating.
Finally awake, he slowly made his way out of their bedroom and into the kitchen, hoping a glass of water will bring him to his senses. With every step he took, the scent of something sweet got closer and closer until he found the reason for the smell.
Kuro, still in his pyjamas, standing in front of the stove with a spatula in his hand, waits; a thick white batter was seated next to him on the floury counter. A smile found its way on Madara’s face, he slowly sneaked up behind the focused redhead until he could safely rest his chin on the other’s shoulder.
Kuro was not startled for a second, already expecting his boyfriend to wake up at this time anyhow, “Mornin’ sleepyhead,”
Madara hummed in reply, snuggling closer to the redhead, closing his eyes to focus on the sugary scent of the pancakes.
Kuro nudged him, forcing the brunette to detach from his lover. Madara shuffles his way to the dining table, carefully watching his boyfriend separate the golden stack of pancakes equally onto two plates. Madara blinked and the redhead had already made his way to the table, placing utensils along with a plate of pancakes in front of the barely awake man.
Now, able to see a full-frontal view of his lover, he notices the frilly pastel pink apron wrapped tightly around his waist. “Nice…” Madara started, giggles leaving him as he gestured towards the fabric.
Kuro raised his eyebrow at him before looking down at what he was wearing. “It’s cute- it’s cute, I promise!” he said between giggles, trying his hardest not to seem like he was mocking his boyfriend.
“Keep laughin’ and I’ll eat the stacks m’self.” The redhead hummed, quickly shutting the other man up.
Their meal was rather silent, the sweetness of maple syrup and the fluffy pancakes filled the room. Once they finished they quickly tackled the dishes left behind, the warm and sugary taste of pancakes as well as the heat of the sink’s water causing drowsiness to slowly overcome them.
They slowly crept their way to the bedroom, quickly snuggling back into the comfort of their bed. Madara latches onto his boyfriend, cuddling close to him and resting his head on the redhead’s shoulder. Kuro reciprocates the hug, pulling a blanket over the two and leaving a kiss on Madara’s head before nuzzling into his messy brown hair.
A muffled goodnight can be heard from the sleepy brunette attached to him, a small smile made its way to Kuro’s face, nestling further into Madara’s hair rather than giving a response. Soft snores from the brunette allowing Kuro to comfortably join him in sleep.
