Work Text:

Sam

  • Definitely is not awake before you but is waking up as you are
  • Has no reason to wake up early but does so anyway to spend time with you and see you off :)
  • Tries his best to help where he can but as we all know his real time to shine is at 10 PM with a frozen pizza when you’ve just come home from a day of errands
  • After you’ve left in the morning, he sits for a little bit not sure what to do with himself without you
  • Might go back to sleep, might start his day too and walk to town to see friends or family
  • Sometimes forgets he now lives on a farm and if you forget to do something and don’t ask him to, he definitely won’t remember either
  • But as soon as he hears you say “Can you–” he’ll already be nodding his head
  • “Just tell me what to do, Babe”
  • If he wasn’t able to sleep one morning, he’ll try and take care of chores around the farm anyway or try his hand at instant pancake mix
  • Nonetheless, he’s always there as emotional support and to be your ray of sunshine in the morning

Sebastian

  • Definitely is awake before you
  • Before living with you, he couldn’t be paid to wake up so early but now he’s used to it
  • His bedtime still hasn’t changed, though, and he is often up in the dead of night
  • (He hasn’t told you this but secretly he makes up for the lost sleep with naps during the day while you’re gone)
  • After maybe 3-5 hours of sleep he’s back up and out of bed, starting on coffee to keep himself awake and also mainly for you
  • Most mornings you wake up a little later, walking sleepily to the kitchen
  • Without fail, with a mug of coffee in his hand, will turn and kiss you on the forehead,
  • “Good morning, Love”
  • Will let you take the mug in his hand or if you leave to get ready, he’ll leave one for you on the table
  • If he wakes up early enough before you, which happens quite frequently, he’ll definitely take care of the crops and feed the animals
  • Always wants to help in any way he can and admires how you did this all on your own before he moved in
  • If you’re running late or forgot to take care of something on the farm, he’ll take care of it no question
  • If you have enough time to sit down in the morning, you both will sit in the kitchen, talking softly with the only light coming in from the sunrise
  • He might ask how your sleep was, or your plans for today

Elliot

  • What an overachiever
  • Even before moving in with you he would wake up at the crack of dawn or even before
  • For what? Idk
  • Early bird gets the worm or something
  • Might have woken up with a sudden burst of creativity and now can’t get back to sleep
  • He doesn’t always drink coffee but always makes sure to brew some for you
  • Enjoys morning walks around the farm and will often take care of your animals and crops on the way
  • If you’ve gotten to the chores first, he’s still walk with you and help in anyway he can
  • Walks you to wherever your starting the day at whether that be the mines or bus stop as much as he can
  • Sometimes if he’s woken up early enough, he’s walk to the forest and pick something for you on the way back
  • Definitely one of those guys who brings pretty rocks or shells to you for you to sort through and pick which ones you like <3
  • “Darling, look at the rock I found this morning”
  • “Elliot it’s 5 A.M. when did you go to the forest”
  • It’s mainly impossible for you to forget to do any chores on the farm because he’s always with you
  • If you’re running late, he’s always more than happy to finish for you and has your list of chores memorized in his head

Haley

  • Loves loves loves feeding and loving on your animals
  • Loves watering your crops too if you don’t get to them first
  • Not the biggest morning person but still wakes up a little bit earlier than you to help out
  • Her first priority is usually making you something to eat, whether that be in the morning or later
  • Another pro of the early mornings that keeps her motivated is the pretty sunrises
  • Even from inside, through the windows she’s often caught up in the blend of colors in the sky pouring in
  • Always has a story to tell you while you’re eating
  • Sometimes it’s about how the farm is doing, sometimes she’ll show you pictures from this morning, or if you guys didn’t have enough time to talk yesterday you’ll both talk about your days
  • If you haven’t woken up by the time she’s finished making you something, you can always find her outside
  • While she’s out in the farm taking pictures of the sunrise or taking care of the farm, you can’t help but smile when you find her, looking beautiful amongst the landscape
  • Whenever she notices you, she’ll smile back and wave you over
  • “Good morning, Dear. Look at this…”
  • Always asks to see if you have any errands she can take care of to lighten your load
  • If you’ve forgotten to do anything, she’ll make sure to remind you when you come back home
