Aged up! 20 something Ladynoir. Pre stablished relationship.
Prompt: 1) Morning Kiss.
The apartment was cold. Always. It didn't matter what season of the year, the apartment had the special feat that it could be boiling hot outside, yet the inside would be cool enough to at least warrant a light sweater. They were very grateful during the summer, but it made winters rather difficult.
Sure, they could have afforded a better place. Adrien did have that trust fund that he could easily dip into, he was old enough to have full access to it. But after a less than amicable break with his father, Adrien was determined to make it on his own, and choose what hewanted to do. Marinette gave him her full support; and so, the couple was determined on trying adult life on their own. Marinette spent two days a week, at her internship, and the the rest of the time was divided between classes and working odd jobs. Adrien was also busy, between taking classes at the university, and the time it took him to do odd jobs as a model; which thankfully, added to Marinette's income was enough to cover both their bills and have a little something to spare on the side.
They had found a great apartment. Great location, within walking or biking distance to School and work, and while it wasn't exactly cheap, it was a price they could afford considering the other perks it held. Sure, the ceiling was a bit low, which was a hazard for the tall model, after a celebratory dinner, but other than that… a paint job and some rugs, was enough to make it more livable. Soon after, the couple moved in, with merely the bare necessities. Bed, a stove and some furniture to store some of their belongings.
Thankfully, by now, they had improved their living conditions. They had furniture now. Like an actual table… where they could actually sit down and eat. An actual (though small) living room set. A collage of pictures adorned the walls, as well as some sketches by Marinette.
The heating, however, was something they were yet to solve. So they simply bought a couple of space heaters and just turned them on when it was necessary. The place was small, it wasn't like it took that long to do so. The main issue was getting out of the bed to go turn them on.
This morning, was one of those instances.
Thankfully, it was raining, which meant it wasn't as cold as it could have been, but that offered little relief considering that she was sure that outside their little cocoon in their bed it was colder than than a polar bear's toenails.
Marinette woke up first. Why? She didn't know, they had been out late as usual, and she should have been more tired. But this week had been a bit stressful, so her whole body was on high alert. She had been waking up and off the bed at the first beep of their trusty alarm.
Their alarm hadn't even gone off yet. Still, there was no point in getting back to bed, since the clock on their makeshift bedside table would probably go off within ten minutes. Still, she stretched underneath the many, many covers that they liked to hide under and began working up her courage to get up. She uncovered her arm and held it outside. "damn" she muttered, it wascold. Still, Adrien had yet to stir, and she was already awake.
No surprise there, out of the both of them, she wasclearly the morning person.
The young woman crawled from underneath the many covers, shivering at the cold as she quickly reached for the discarded socks she had taken off the night before, which lay on a crumpled heap by the side of her bed. Then, she scanned the room quickly to try and find something to put on over her tanktop and her sleep boxers. Granted, it wasn't the best choice for the weather, but her bedmate was a bit of a cuddler, which meant that no matter what the weather was, she grew a bit hot. Hence… her sleeping fashion tended to be a little bit skimpy.
He had yet to complain about that though.
Aha! Marinette reached for Adrien's fluffy sweater with a hoody, which was not something he really wore outside. Models were always judged by their appearances and since that was still a source of income for the blond, he left the relaxed looks for inside their place. She slipped the hoodie over her head, thankful at the protection it offered from the weather. She quickly made her way to where the space heater was and switched it on, before walking towards the kitchen. Sure, she was awake, but that didn't mean that she didn't need coffee. And considering that Adrien was still sleeping away… he clearly would need some too.
She prepped the coffee machine, rinsing out the filter and then filling some freshly ground coffee in it. She checked the water levels and then went to the refrigerator. Hmm… They'll need to go shopping soon, their perishables' list was deplorable. After closing it, she went back to their bed. Time to wake up her boyfriend.
"Adrien?" she called out, as she checked whether the heaters were working out. "Wake uuuup" she tossed a small pillow in the general direction.
A long groan came from the comforters which shifted around until the top of a blond head appeared and sleepy green eyes opened in her direction. "'stoo early" he mumbled, simply following her movements as Marinette got back in bed. No need for her to freeze while waiting for the coffee to be done.
As if on reflex, Adrien rolled on her, "Sleep" he mumbled against her neck, curling against her.
"Noo" she said, trying to pull away. If she fell into his trap, they'd be late for everything.
It had happened before.
Somehow, Marinette managed to untangle herself from a very sleepy and grabby boyfriend. Or so she thought; the hoodie was a variable she hadn't considered and Adrien was able to pull her right back. She squeaked before getting more comfortable. She had a mission right now. She just had to get through hell week and then she'd be completely down for all these shenanigans. She straddled his hips as she looked down at her boyfriend, who looked awfully satisfied with himself for someone who was supposedly still asleep. "You are the worst at mornings, did you know that?" she said, swatting at the hands that were inching up her legs, before poking his chest.
The corners of his lips betrayed the beginning of a smile, though his eyes remained closed. Marinette sighed and stretched, looking at the window besides their bed, it was raining harder than before. However, looking outside proved to be her downfall, and enough of a distraction for Adrien to seize the moment flip them over, pining her under him.
She… should have seen this one coming. It was not the first time.
"Morning" he said, grinning against her lips before kissing her. It was far too early to get out of bed, but they could try and make the most of it. The blond lazily dragged his lips across her jawline, earning a small sigh from his girlfriend.
It seemed that Marinette had given up for the moment, as her arms had wrapped around his neck and she kissing him with just as much enthusiasm as he was.
"What… time… is … it?" he asked, punctuating each word with a kiss.
She took a glance at the clock on her bedside table "Uh…seven twelve…" she said, eyes closed in contentment.
Adrien paused, lifting his weight on his elbows as he looked down at his girlfriend "Did I forget something today?" he asked, confusion clear in his green eyes.
Now Marinette was confused. "Uh…" she said, "Class?"
The blond laughed "Marinette… it's Saturday."
Blue eyes blinked repeatedly, as a small blush tinged her face "Oh." She was beginning to wonder why the alarm hadn't gone off already. They usually set it up for seven sharp. "Ugh!" she whined as Adrien began kissing her again "waait, I need to turn off the coffee machine" she said, or else the coffee was going to get cold and all gross. And time had proved that they were a bit of coffee snobs.
His first reply was to nip at her neck "Later" he said, his lips quirking in a proud smile as he felt her body comply.
"You're the absolute worst" she said, rolling her eyes as sneaky hands tugged on the hoodie, but went right back to kissing him again anyway.
Well. they were already awake.
