1. Good Morning

"Mommy!" comes a cry as soon as the door opens, and Kyouya Ootori finds himself being hugged by one Tamaki Suoh. Kyouya sighs and sullenly lets himself be nuzzled by the blonde. Why would this be a problem, you ask?

Tamaki is a morning person. Kyouya is most definitely not.

Tamaki releases Kyouya after a few seconds, drags him to their desks, and then, once seated, proceeds to babble about some new cosplay he wants to do in the Host Club next week. Babble, chatter, flail – Kyouya just nods along with it and makes a few noncommittal sounds of agreement when it's necessary. He can already feel a headache brewing, and he's only been at school for a few minutes. He tries to massage his temples, but the ache remains. His stomach growls, and Kyouya is painfully reminded that he forgot to eat breakfast this morning.

Tamaki gently tugs Kyouya's hands down and replaces them with his own. Kyouya sighs, this time contentedly. His dark eyes glance at his desk and find a steaming, warm cup of coffee sitting there. Where had that come from?

"Tachibana called me after he woke you this morning," Tamaki says softly. "He said you were up all night studying and doing the budget and only went to bed a few hours ago. I thought you wouldn't mind a little comfort." He gestured to the coffee. "Black Peruvian, two sugars, soy milk, just the way you like it."

"You remember my coffee preferences?" Kyouya asks, surprised that Tamaki would remember something as trivial as that. After all, they hardly ever go out for coffee.

"What kind of husband doesn't remember his wife's tastes in drinks?" Tamaki replies, nuzzling Kyouya's dark hair. Kyouya smiles softly at that.

Kyouya may not be a morning person, but he can at least handle them with Tamaki by his side.
