you know it’s early in the morning when you hear sakusa shuffling around your shared bedroom looking for his running shoes to go on his daily morning run.
though he tries his best to not wake you, the emptiness of the spot next to you in bed makes you flutter your eyes open to a dimly lit room and your boyfriend’s silhouette.
“g’morning ‘oomi.” you softly mutter, slowly opening your eyes.
“oh hey good morning, angel.” he greets you as he slides a fitted workout top on. “go back to sleep, it’s early.”
“mmm.. yeah in a minute.” you mumble. “ya know, i’ve always wondered how it’d feel like to go on an early morning run.”
“well, you can join me if you want.” he replies with a soft smile that always makes your heart melt. you didn’t think you’d feel so mushy this early in the day, yet here you are.
“i’d love that.”
you step out the house and are immediately greeted with the crisp morning air and a breathtaking sunrise that you haven’t seen in months.
your boyfriend shoots you a smile and starts lightly jogging to the sidewalk, gesturing for you to follow suit.
“just let me know if you need a break.” he says.
you respond with a ‘mkay, but stop in your tracks shortly after when you’re met with the view of the 6 am sky painted with hues of blue and pink, along with groups of birds soaring around.
“you never told me how pretty it was this early.” you note, with your gaze still glued to the scenery in front of you. “if i had known, i would have joined you earlier.”
“well it is pretty,” he begins, “but i’m greeted with something even more pretty every morning.” he pulls you close and places his arm around your shoulder, then places a warm kiss on your temple.
“stop… you’re so cute ‘oomi.” you note while wrapping your arms around his toned bicep. “who knew you were this soft in the morning.”
“oh shut up before i dash off and leave you behind.”
