Work Text:
Lando’s never been a fan of mornings. He would prefer to lay in bed and get up around noon. Carlos was the opposite. He was up most mornings at sunrise to go for a run or bike ride to start his day.
Today was just like any other day, Carlos’ alarm went off as the sun came up. He got up, pressing a kiss to Lando’s head before getting ready for a run. Lando never stirred, laying star-fished across the bed on his front, head now resting on Carlos’ pillow. Carlos was always quiet in the mornings. He knew how grumpy Lando got when woken up and tried to avoid waking him at all costs. Carlos pressed another kiss to Lando’s head as he left the bedroom. He wasn’t surprised when Lando was still asleep when he got back from his run. He slipped into the shower, cleaning up before he would be ready to start his day. Lando was awake when Carlos come out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist.
“Morning cariño.” Carlos said, moving towards their closet to get dressed.
“Mornin” Lando mumbled, eyes still half closed as he watched Carlos got dressed.
“Are you getting up today?” Carlos pulled on a pair of clean sweatpants before heading walking towards their bed, sitting on the edge.
“Can you make me pancakes?” Lando said, pout forming on his lips.
“Of course. I’ll start you join me when you’re ready.” Carlos ran his fingers through Lando’s hair, trailing down his bare back before getting up from the bed and heading towards to kitchen.
Carlos always made sure they had the ingredients to make pancakes because Lando asked for them so often. He was mixing the batter up when Lando stumbled into the kitchen, wearing on of Carlos’ hoodies that was too big on him. He sat at the kitchen island, watching Carlos move around the kitchen effortlessly. Carlos didn’t even have to ask what Lando wanted anymore on his pancakes. Carlos put two on a plate, spreading Nutella over each one, he added some cut-up strawberries and a few blueberries to the top, setting the plate in front of Lando along with a glass of milk. He grabbed his own plate, his pancake topped with butter and fruit along with his cup of coffee.
“Thanks.” Lando said, picking up his fork to start eating. He knew these weren’t exactly meal planned approved but he was prepared to work a but harder in the gym to eat them.
“Of course cariño.” Carlos leaned over, pressing a quick kiss to Lando’s lips. He could taste the Nutella on the other’s man’s lips. They finished eating together in silence, day like this where they could start the day slowly and together were always the best days.
