You've gotten used to waking up before your alarm, gotta make sure she doesn't wake up
You get up carefully and leave the bed
You're not sure when she even went to sleep last night, she stayed up playing Hollow Knight
You did feel like she crawled into bed at around 4 am
Unfortunately, you remember she made the great decision of scheduling a stream in the morning
In around an hour
You start trying to wake her up
"...Kronii?"
You caress her face
"Mmmm....whatisit........"
She's barely conscious
"You have a stream pretty soon..."
".....noooooooooooooooooo...."
She slowly snaps her fingers
It's times like these you realize how good the warden of time has it
With time stopped, you decided to finish up some chores so you'd have the rest of the day free
You hurry and prepare everything she needs >You make sure everything works so she doesn't get grumpy first thing in the morning
After what you think is a few hours, you hear the bedroom door open
She walks up to you slowly
"uhhhhhh..."
No matter how much time passes, she clearly will never be a morning person
You take her by the hand and guide her to the table
"I'll get your breakfast in a bit, okay?"
".....thankyou....."
It should take her another hour to wake up
You continue your usual routine with her
While slowly feeding her, she starts making coherent sentences
"...why did I even schedule that...?"
"You tried to show off to chat your very perfect self"
She slowly raises her arm and tries to slap you
You dodge and keep feeding her
"....at least you're the only one who gets to see me like this..."
Okay so still half-asleep
You see her make a slight smile, guess she's also happy for that
Once she finally woke up, she snapped her fingers once more
"Thanks, babe. I'll see you in a bit"
She gives you another smile
"Yep, have fun"
She walks away to finish preparing for the stream
You recall what she told you while eating breakfast
She's right
You're the only one who gets to see this side of her
You make yourself a promise to stay by her side
Someone has to make sure she can remain perfect in everyone else's eyes, right?
