Work Text:
Sayaka woke up to the sound of rustling from the pantry.
Not knowing who it was, she creeped out to the kitchen and saw Mukuro getting the ingredients to make pancakes.
"What’cha doing honey?”
“Trying to make some pancakes. But I can't find the batter.”
“It’s right behind you darling~”
Mukuro looked at the counter behind her and saw the bowl of pancake batter right as the cat was nudging it and….
Splat!
“Aw fuck.” mukuro said just as it fell.
“Singer!” Sayaka scolds picking up the cat, and moving her to the living room.
Mukuro quickly moves to pick up the glass shards. As she finishes with the sharp pieces, Sayaka grabs paper towels and proceeds to wipe up the batter.
“Babe, do we have any more eggs? I used the last of the milk and honey on that batter” Mukuro asks, looking through their cabinets.
“The eggs should be on the top shelf in the fridge on the right.” Sayaka gently pushes past Mukuro to check. “Oh. I guess we’re out.”
“My warrior princess come back to bed!” Sayaka says, grabbing her wife’s hand.
“I’ll be there in a minute.” Sayaka holds her hand for a minute longer before heading to their bedroom.
Sayaka lays down and checks the time. 5:23 am. Way too early for this. She closes her eyes and after a few minutes falls back asleep.
Mukuro finishes putting away the other ingredients and checks in on Sayaka. She was asleep in bed. Morning glory was snuggled up next to her.
She smiled a soft smile, before grabbing her keys and heading outside. She gets in their car and drives to the store.
After arriving, she heads inside and begins to make her way to the dairy and egg isle in the refrigerated section.
She was just passing by the cereal isle when she spots Makoto, Kyoko, and Byakuya. The following two looking utterly exhausted while Makoto looked full of energy and was happily holding both their hands.
She waved and Makoto grins, letting go of Kyoko’s hand and waving. He quickly grabs Byakuya's hand again and drags them over to Mukuro.
“Hey Mukuro!” He says. “What are you doing at the store so early?”
“I’m getting eggs so I can make pancakes for my wife.” She answers. “And I could ask the same about you three.” She cocks an eyebrow.
Byakuya sighs. “Makoto wanted cereal, and Kyoko and I were out of coffee.”
Kyoko lets out a yawn. “It was nice seeing you but I need my coffee. My loves come on.”
The trio begins to walk back to the cereal aisle, and Mukuro hurries over to the baking isle. She looks around for honey, and quickly spots the bear shaped bottle. She grabs one.
After placing it in her basket, she walks to the dairy isle. She picks up a carton of eggs and a gallon of whole milk as well as a gallon of strawberry milk.
She heads over to checkout where the total comes out to be $22.22, She looks at it and plainly says “that’s an… Interesting price.” She checks the time, 6:03 AM. After paying she goes outside back to the car and drives back to the house.
When she enters, Morning Glory runs from the bedroom over to her human mama and rubs against her legs, purring loudly.
“Shh. We gotta be quiet.” Mukuro whispers to the cat. She slowly brings the crinkly bags to the kitchen, opening the ingredients as quietly as she can.
She gets out a bowl, measuring cups, and a whisk. After mixing up the ingredients she turns on the stove.
While waiting for it to heat up, she pours a cup of strawberry milk for herself. On second thought she pours one for Sayaka as well for when she wakes up.
After the pan heats up, she slowly pours the batter into somewhat wonky heart shapes. Nothing but the best for her wife of course.
The aroma of fried dough slowly fills the house and she hears footsteps slowly padding to the kitchen. “Hey Warrior princess. I thought you were gonna come to bed.” Mukuro smiles at the cringey nickname
Sayaka hugs her from behind, face pressing into her shoulder.
“I was going to my fluttershy,” she says using the equally embarrassing lovey dovey nickname, “but I really wanted to surprise you.”
Sayaka pulls away and looks at the pan. “Aw, hearts. I love you so much!”
Mukuro flips them, then turns around and grabs her wife, holding her bridal style. “I love you even more!”
Sayaka giggles and plants a kiss on Mukuro’s nose. The freckle faced woman grins and pulls her wife into an actual kiss.
She gently places her down, and puts the hot pancakes onto plates. Sayaka goes into the fridges, grabbing strawberries and blueberries, as well as syrup from the cabinet.
She carries her armload to the table, and Mukuro carefully brings over the hot treats.
Sayaka generously adds blueberries to her own, while Mukuro adds 3 strawberries and a small amount of syrup to hers.
“Say, I think that’s enough.” Mukuro jokes, handing her a fork.
“You can never have enough blueberries.” Sayaka says with a smile, mashing them up and spreading them on her pancakes.
“I guess you are what you eat.” She pokes her wife, who tries to bite her. “Hey!”
“Aw man, I almost stole your identity.” Sayaka laughs.
“My love. You’re a world famous singer. You’re the most talented and beautiful woman to ever exist.” Sayaka blushes and starts crunchity munchiting her pancakes.
Mukuro follows suit and after a few minutes they put the plates into the sink and head back to bed. Sayaka checks the time on her phone and shows Mukuro. 7:02, a couple hours before either of them need to get to work.
They crawl into bed and Sayaka presses her face into Mukuros shoulder. Mukuro pulls her closer and wraps all four limbs around her. Sayaka lets out a muffled giggle.
Morning glory jumps onto their bed and the two can feel her feet walk over as she lays down on the pillow next to their heads. “Hey Soldier.” Mukuro calls out, “come closer to mama.”
“No Singer, come here.” To both her moms calls she stays firmly put, purring loudly.
The warmth of their cuddling bodies calms Mukuro down and before she realizes, she’s beginning to fall asleep.
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! Mukuros alarm goes off that means it must be 7:45 am. “Baby please.” Sayaka begs. “5 more minutes?”
And who knows. 5 more minutes can’t hurt.
