The alarm went off, as usual, at five AM, and as usual Adrian awoke with disturbing alertness for the hour.
Just as usually, Adrien was still asleep, prompting a gentle nudge to the shoulder.

He tried to open his eyes, but his eyelids were so heavy it hurt.
Adrien had almost never in all his life had to get up at an earlier hour than he wanted and he was very pitiful about it now that it was happening.

He made a sad sound and then rubbed his eyes frantically. "All right. I'm up. I'm up."

He groaned and pulled himself to a sitting position. When his feet touched the floor he recoiled.
"It's so cooold," he said, climbing back onto the bed and into Adrian's lap.

Adrian watched him for a moment and then relented.
"I'll make you some coffee," he sighed.
