Third Dream - Honey Sweet

Allen groaned, feeling his awareness surface. His body demanded he relieved himself but he still didn't want to wake up just yet. The urge however grew more and more insistent with every minute until Allen gave in. Kicking off his blanket, Allen grumpily wobbled over to the bathroom to get ready for the day.

Circa 15 minutes later he emerged in a towel, teeth brushed and showered. Padding back to his shared bedroom with Link he fetched a pair of boxers and an ironed white shirt - Link insisted that he had to look "presentable".

Finished, Allen skipped down the stairs, right in the back of their little bakery. After their marriage, Link and Allen moved into a beautifully renovated two-storey house, the ground floor was the bakery and they lived upstairs. They even had a balcony. Link loved to hang out there.

Allen smiled seeing Link take out another set of muffins from the oven. He was always up early (read: 4 am) so he could knead dough and prepare their freshly baked goods on time. He was wearing the frilly pink apron and matching gloves Allen bought him as a joke when they celebrated their first year together. Link actually liked them though, they were high quality materials he said. Allen was convinced he was just excited in his own, withdrawn way to receive gift from his lover. The precious memory made him want to attack Link with affectionate kisses. If he wasn't holding a hot tray he definitely would have.

"Good morning," he greeted warmly, walking over and pecking his cheek, minding the hot tray the other held.

"Good morning to you as well," Link replied, setting aside the cooling muffins. "Your hot water and doughnuts are in the usual place."

"Oh, I know that, I came for my other 'usual'," Allen relied with a cheeky grin.

Link rolled his eyes with an exasperated smile and leaned in to meet Allen's good morning kiss. He let out a low growl when Allen refused to stop liplocking with him. "Allen, please, my doughnuts will burn."

"I'm burning too!" he whined as he let Link pull away to take out the next tray. He raised an inquiring eyebrow at Allen's comment, so he continued. "With love for you."

Link's lips parted and he gazed at Allen dumbfounded for a few seconds before shaking his head to will away his blush. Allen knew how much he could rile him up with these stupid pick-up lines. "Eat your breakfast Walker, hunger is decaying your brain again. God, I'm sure Lavi or Tokusa is rubbing off on you. Or your uncle." Maybe he was right. Neah was certainly… an experience.

Allen giggled at that. "Right, right, I'll go eat my food, steal some more kisses and occupy the cash register."

"You do that- Hey!" Link yelped indignantly as Allen pecked a surprise kiss on his lips. He was working here! Allen, the little shit he was, ran off laughing. Link shook his head, struggling to contain the redness creeping up on his neck.

The routine was always the same. They opened at 7, greeting those who had their breakfast in their bakery. Not much after opening, Kanda would arrive. Normally, Kanda would avoid a bakery and their sweet nonsenses, not to mention "the white haired clown brat", but this was the only place that agreed to create Alma's favourite treat: doughnut with mayonnaise filling.

Link had quite an emotional dilemma over that. Allen still vividly remembered how much he cried that someone expected him to create such monstrosity. He still couldn't quite believe it that such thing would make Link cry. Or anything at all. Link crying. Allen was sure it was a sign that the Apocalypse was coming.

In the end Link gave in. Seeing Alma's reaction however, Link decided that maybe creating unusual requests wasn't a bad thing, as long as there were people who liked the outcome.

After Kanda came the other regulars: most of Allen's extended family. Adam, his sweet tooth grandfather; Skin, his sweet tooth cousin; Lulu Bell, his quiet cousin, who loved to have butter croissants with milk and Road who wouldn't skip a chance to see him. She was more of a candy type of girl but she would murder for Link's glazed doughnuts. And Tyki came with his bunch to fill their stomachs with cheap food.

Timothy adored everything Link created but Emilia regulated his diet. She couldn't do anything about Lenalee's habit to destroy a chocolate cake daily, she was an adult. When people ever even brought it up that it might be too much of a calorie intake she had the nerve to say that Allen was rubbing off on her. She got lots of squinted glares from Allen for that.

Marie and Miranda as well as Krory and Eliade often came by for their couple discounts. Mana and Tiedoll came around 10 to gush about how adorable they were. Cross only came along because Maria, their daughter Anita and her girlfriend, Mahoja dragged him there (or in Mahoja's case just lift him above her shoulder). Or at least that's what he always said, Allen was sure that he always watched Link from the corner of his eye.

Allen liked it when Kiredori came over, she was a fellow glutton who loved to have feasts daily - and never gain weight. Tewaku was fond of the vanilla flavoured curls. Madaro resorted to the bagels, munching them quietly as he read the news. Tokusa and Lavi leaned more towards mildly seasoned pizza, unlike Goushi who preferred it spicy.

After the morning rush didn't cease until 11 as lots had brunch there as well.

Roughly between 11 and 13 Link had the chance to have a pause and have his lunch in peace along with a short nap while Allen engaged with the potential customers. Lou Fa arrived around then, ready to take the cashier.

Around 3 there was another rush and they closed at 7. The leftovers were left to Allen and Kiredori, the ones that were not donated to those in need.

After closing Link prepared for the next day's portion and the ordered cakes until Allen came to force his workaholic husband to stop for the day.

Link paused feelings Allen's hands snake around his sides and lock over his stomach, while his head went to rest on his shoulder. He tried not to bristle as Allen kissed next to his ear - his weak spot.

"Link~ this is more than enough," Allen murmured in his ear gently, attempting to convince him to stop. "Come, let's watch some series and go to bed."

"I can't, I need to finish these," he mumbled.

Allen pouted at his stubbornness. "But Howie~, you've been working overtime for the past month. What are you even pushing yourself for?"

Begrudgingly, Link sighed, pulling off his mitten. Allen loosened his embrace so he could move and pull some paper out of the kitchen drawer.

Silver eyes widened to the size of saucers. "Plane tickets?"

"I… I'd like to take you on another honeymoon," Link admitted meekly. "München is beautiful in this season, I'd like to show you the city I grew up in.

"That's what you were so secretive about lately?" Allen asked. The stubborn silence was more than enough of a reply. Grinning, he kissed Link again just to gain a choked squeak. "I'd love to go with you. God, I love you so much." He never said it out loud but Allen knew that Link absolutely adored to be kissed so lovingly. "Just give me time to tell this to my family. We don't want the Interpol after us again."

Link shuddered at the memory.

Standing on his tiptoes, Allen pressed a big kiss to the crown of Link's hair. "Alright, but you still need to finish now."

"Just a few minutes."

"Fine." Allen stole one last kiss to Link's exposed neck, chuckling at his bristling. Really, like a baby bird who had their feathers ruffled. Adorable.

With a grin on his face he went back upstairs so he could call his family on Discord. It would probably take about 20 minutes but Link probably needed just as much time to finish up. He could use that time to think of paybacks to "punish" Allen for surprise kissing him just to rile him up. He could hardly wait.

Decided to do Allen1s POV for a change, so we can see how he adores Link as well. Clingly little shit. Though that's not the reason why he gets just plain hot water, it's his favourtie drink... Because it's... free... God fucking damn it, Cross.

And the thought of an excited (yet still reserved) Link leading Allen around in Germany, pointing at stuff like "look, that's used to be my favourite bakery. Now it's only second to ours *coughs* because you're there *cough cough* sorry, must be the air pollution." Link, please.

Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed, please review.
