Prompt: Time
Rose has a very bad habit of running late. It's not quite as bad as it used to be back at the academy, but that's only because she has a living, breathing, 6'7 alarm clock sharing her bed.
Still, even with Dimitri waking her up every morning—and he's smart enough to start trying to rouse her at least 45 minutes before she has to be up, giving her plenty of time to grumble and beg for 'just five more minutes' of sleep or cuddling—she is always running behind. He's always dressed and out the door at least twenty minutes before he has to be somewhere, leaving her half asleep, grumbling and huffing, chugging a coke as she tries to remember how to turn the shower on—something that's rather difficult to do when you can't seem to open your eyes.
It's not something she means to do—she just has absolutely no concept of time in the morning when she is still bleary eyed and groggy and half asleep. By the time she remembers to even glance at the clock—and she always thinks she's got plenty of time since she got up early—she realizes that it's time to leave, and she hasn't even gotten dressed yet.
It's a good thing that her charge is well aware of her habitual tardiness and shortcomings in the promptness department, otherwise she'd totally be screwed. Lissa may gently chide her about it from time to time or tease her when she comes running in with her hair unbrushed and her buttons askew from getting dressed in a rush, but the young queen realizes it's something that's probably never going to change so she doesn't hold it against her.
