Day

The sun peeked through the windows, bathing the room in its soft glow. A figure shifted under the blankets, moving to snuggle into the taller figure before falling still once again.

Kcalb opened his eyes to stare at the God in his arms, brushing her hair from her face. Even when it was this short, it was still as unruly as before…

"Hmm… Kcalb?"

He barely suppressed a yelp of surprise, though his body did give a jolt. Wasn't she asleep…?

"Good morning, Etihw."

"Good morning, Kcalb."

She stretched in a feline manner, sighing happily before burrowing further under the blankets, nuzzling into her Devil's side and grinning when her actions managed to draw a small gasp from him…

"It's time to get up, Eti."

Trust him to ruin the moment. She peeked out from under the blankets with a pout.

"Do we have to? Can't we just stay in bed?"

That puppy-dog expression on her face was enough to force people to give in… but Kcalb has had years to get used to it.

He shook his head.

"Absolutely not. We have duties to attend to."

Well, more her than him, but that was because she was always lagging behind in her work.

Etihw sighed at that. Yes, she knew she had duties, but she'd rather stay here and cuddle with Kcalb…

And while the Devil may be immune to her puppy eyes, he was most certainly not immune to seeing her sad.

"…Just ten more minutes, ok?"

Etihw was under the covers in a second, hugging him close with a huge smile.

"Ten minutes." She agreed.

They ended up staying in bed until late noon, anyways.
