1. "Good morning" kiss

It was an unbearably humid morning. Lovino kicked off the sheets from his sweat-sticky body, rolled over to the cool side of the bed, and settled back to sleep with a vague and irritated awareness that Antonio wasn't there. He pummelled Antonio's pillow into shape before resting his head in it, sniffing hopefully for his scent…

He woke again to a rich earthly fragrance and the feel of warm fingers brushing hair out of his face. He opened his eyes, and his expression pinched into a scowl at the sight of Antonio smiling down at him.

"What do you want, you bastard?" he muttered, though half-heartedly, as Antonio's fingers felt nice combing through his hair.

"I made breakfast!" Antonio said brightly. He sprang up from the bed, the displaced weight causing the mattress to spring and bounce an irritable Lovino into sitting up. "Look, I made your favourite — churros!"

And he presented Lovino with a breakfast tray laden with a ridiculously large pile of the fried sugary snack, accompanied with an equally generous serving of chocolate sauce. He continued to beam at Lovino who dropped his face into his hand, muttering, "Idiot, you went way overboard…"

"Come, come, eat it while it's hot," he pressed, snapping open the tray's legs and sliding it over Lovino's lap. "There's coffee too, and there's milk, and… oh! I forgot the sugar! You take sugar with your coffee, right? Wait here, I'll go fetch it!"

But before he could spring up and run off again, Lovino caught his hand and pulled him back. He had such a stupid vacant look that Lovino felt a new surge of irritation just looking at him.

"Stop running around and just stay still!"

"But the sug—"

Lovino cut him off with a dry, chapped-lip kiss. Antonio sat agape, his hand falling limp in Lovino's as the latter swiped his tongue across his lips, licking at the white powdered sugar from when he taste-tested a churro in the kitchen.

"Stay and help me eat all this food, you stupid bastard," Lovino said when they parted, turning swiftly away in an attempt to hide his embarrassment. Antonio pretended not to notice.

"Of course," he said, his expression softening.

He settled back into bed as Lovino reached for his coffee and breakfast, finally content with Antonio by his side again.
