Our Mornings (1/1)

The morning sun is breaking through the huge windows in front of the bed. Although it is just barely eight a.m., it's said that it's going to be a hot day in the huge city.The smooth, pale skin under Momo's arms is also warm. A white thin blanket covers most of their body parts, not allowing them to get cold, but it is too hot to wear clothes. The soft pillow under Momo's head makes this morning even cozier, but it wouldn't be the same if the person in her arms was missing. An almost unnoticed grumble is interrupting her thoughts. This morning is almost too perfect."Hey," Momo whispers into Dahyun's ear. "Good morning."The girl in Momo's arms turns her head around, and with a sleepy look, she smiles at Momo. Her hair is all fuzzy and she can barely keep her eyes open. "Morning, honey," Dahyun replies."Did you sleep well?" With her fingertips, Momo strokes across the arm of Dahyun, feeling the smooth skin."Yeah, I did." Dahyun rubs her eyes. "Is it time to get up yet?""Not yet, we have some time left. What do you want for breakfast?" Momo's voice is still whispery as she knows that Dahyun prefers her mornings to be more on the quiet side. She kisses the younger one's shoulder."Hm... I don't know," Dahyun answers tonelessly, most likely distracted by the touching and kissing of Momo on her skin.Although, Momo doesn't stop. She is having too much fun with confusing Dahyun a little more just with what she is doing. But eventually, she does stop, and Dahyun lets out a sigh, almost as if she is disappointed by it, until Momo suddenly starts tickling her."No, stop that! That's not fair, I'm so ticklish!" Dahyun's shrieking is loud as she is winding herself around, trying to dodge Momo's mischievous hands, but the older one just laughs and keeps on doing it further, tickling the girl on any and every spot she can reach."Stop it, that's mean!" Dahyun is laughing so hard that her words are drowning in her laughter."But I have fun doing it." Momo gives Dahyun a wide grin. "You are lovely," she says further and hops onto Dahyun's lap.Momo starts feeling Dahyun's skin and caresses the body below her carefully and tenderly. "Your skin is so soft."Then, their eyes meet and it seems like they share so many thoughts together that only the two of them know about."Momo, what was it about breakfast?""Don't you enjoy this breakfast as well?" Momo is talking in whisper again and Dahyun suddenly gasps because of the now more intense touching."Can't get enough yet?" Dahyun smiles and relaxes fully again after all the tickling. Her heart is beating faster than it was before, but she feels so safe in Momo's arms and she believes everything the other girl is doing is just right.The sun shines onto Momo's back while she is occupying her lips with Dahyun's skin. It is so warm that she gets goosebumps and the tiny hairs on her back stand up. She likes the feeling of it, she finds it kind of arousing. Meanwhile, Dahyun is stroking the older one's cheeks with her hands. The remarkable cheekbones fascinate her every time she looks at Momo's face. Dahyun is stunned about the fact that she could fall in love every day again with that woman, her eyes, her smile, her nose, and everything else hidden under her clothes.Dahyun's eyes are catching the slightly tanned skin in front of her, a flat stomach with line abs, a neckline which leads to a perfectly trained back, and the breasts for which her desire is big to touch them, squeeze them gently. But she refuses to touch anything on her beloved girl for now. Instead, she just observes Momo's body over and over again as she enjoys Momo's caressing and graceful lips on her skin.Although the day is already hot, it manages to get even hotter in their bed. Dahyun is sweating below Momo's hands, almost melting. They've done this so many times before, but the younger one always gets excited like it's the first time."Could you imagine your life without me?" Dahyun suddenly asks, causing the older one stop what she is doing."What?" Momo is confused and searches dazed for the other girl's eyes."You know... how would it have been right now if we had never met?"The serious voice of the younger girl irritates Momo a lot. That's why she lets go from Dahyun and sits down right next to her. She worries if something has happened, her voice is just a whisper once again. "Why are you asking?""I was just curious. It's been so long since we fell in love, and for me, every day seems like the first day, but I wondered what my life would have been without you." Dahyun gets wrinkles on her forehead because she is thinking so hard, way more than she should be, so she turns her face away."Aren't you happy?" Momo takes the hand of the younger and squeezes it slightly. She feels that something is wrong with Dahyun, but she doesn't know what. She wants to know."I am happy, I'm very happy. But I don't know how to get rid of these thoughts."Their eyes meet again and Momo gives Dahyun the opposite of a sad face which Dahyun was expecting, encouraging the younger one to talk out her thoughts."Everything in my life is great and I appreciate every minute of it. But sometimes I worry if it will last until the end." Dahyun turns around and is now lying with the side of her face on Momo's thigh. She kisses it and sighs."Stop thinking like that, Dahyuni. There is nothing that could harm you, everything is and will be fine." Momo tousles Dahyun's hair. She isn't quite sure how to handle the current situation."How could you know that?" The younger girl lifts her head a bit and looks into the dark pair of eyes above her.Momo strokes her cheeks and plays with a few strands of hair. She doesn't answer directly, but she knows that Dahyun is right. The future is something that neither of them can guess. There is silence between them as Dahyun is waiting for an answer. She is wondering what Momo is thinking in the moment and if she will be able to reply."See, you also don't know what could happen in the future." Dahyun sighs again and turns her head away.For a few moments, she lies there while Momo is caressing her hair, although neither of them are talking. Eventually, Momo lays down beside her and meets her eyes again."I believe everything will be fine in future," Momo says, this time sounding very sure about it."But you can't explain either. Literally anything could happen." Dahyun switches between looking at Momo's eyes and averting from her, to the side. "So, why shouldn't there be anything that could harm me?""Because you are with me," Momo answers straightforwardly and lays her hand on the younger one's cheek. "Nothing will harm you as long as you are with me."And with a kiss, Momo seals the conversation. The morning sun is too precious to get destroyed by negative feelings. And so Dahyun smiles again, grabbing the hand of the older one. She knows that she wants to hold that hand forever, no matter what is awaiting them in the future. But for now, she has to let go because Momo wants to prepare breakfast.It's a sweet breakfast, made with love and passion by the older one, just like yesterday, the day before and the weeks before; Japanese pancake that seems to be prepared a little differently every time. Momo uses a recipe she picked up from her mother, but she always changes it up when she feels like it's getting boring. Sometimes a little more sugar, sometimes less sugar for more syrup, or sometimes honey instead of sugar. It's a mystery, just like the future.She flips the pancake over in the pan just like Dahyun is in bed, tossing and turning, her eyelids failing to stay open ever since Momo left the bed. But she doesn't really care, because she knows Momo will be back soon to carry her and take care of her. Every morning Dahyun is reminded of how lucky she is to have such a wonderful person by her side.And as expected, Momo's footsteps can be heard, and soon, she's peeking in through the door. "The table is ready, are you?"Momo giggles as Dahyun buries her head deeper into the covers. Momo knows exactly what the younger one wants and she gives in so easily every time. Other than the fact that she wants Dahyun to be treated like a princess, she enjoys it too. "I'll get you ready then," Momo says, receiving a muffled giggle from under the covers.She walks to the bed, snatching the cover from the younger one's grip and tossing it to the side. To the side because she knows Dahyun would take it back and properly hold onto it if it was within her reach. She ignores Dahyun's groaning as she makes her sit up before throwing the younger one's arms over her shoulders to hold onto. Then, Momo places her hands onto Dahyuns waist, tight enough for a good grip but loose enough to not hurt her. The next thing you see is Momo walking into the kitchen with Dahyun clinging to her body like a child, but it's a sight that is not uncommon as it happens almost every morning.They both enjoy the sweet pancakes with an accompaniment of sweet kisses occurring every now and then, almost like tasting the pancakes through each other's lips. Although, they both know it tastes the sweetest that way....
