Daniel padded across the kitchen on socked feet, bending over the bench to drop a handful of freshly washed raspberries, blueberries and blackberries into a small glass bowl. He topped them off with a dollop of creamy vanilla yoghurt and a light dusting of icing sugar.

Just then the toast popped up from the toaster, making Daniel jump at the sound in the near silent dawn. He quickly buttered it, remembering at the last moment to cut it diagonally instead of down the middle. He placed it next to the berries and a steaming mug of hot coffee on a small breakfast tray, complete with a miniature vase which held a single daisy, a weed really from Daniel's unkempt garden.

With his masterpiece complete, Daniel lifted the tray and creeped quietly back to his bedroom. Stepping into the darkness he made his way around the bed, almost tip toeing so as not to disturb the sleeping occupant in his bed.

He placed the tray on the bedside table and went over to the curtains, pulling one aside causing the early morning sun to spill across the carpet, illuminating the lump beneath the doona.

Vala curled up, hiding her face as soon as the sunlight hit her face. Daniel felt a small chuckle rise in his chest at her antics. He crouched down beside her, pulling her hair back enough to reveal a cheek, which he promptly kissed. Vala turned her head towards him now that he was blocking the light, screwing her nose up at being woken in such a horrid manner.

"Morning beautiful" he whispered against her skin.

"As I have been so callously demonstrated" Vala replied. Daniel gave her his best innocent little boy grin to which she playfully swatted him away. "C'mon, I made you breakfast" Daniel stood to pick up the tray, holding it out to Vala as she rose to a sitting position still rubbing the sleep from her eyes. "Toast ala Jackson, extra butter just like you like" Daniel announced. Vala just stared at him with a surprised look on her face. "What?" He looked closer at the breakfast he had prepared, searching for something he'd messed up. Finding nothing, his eyes rose again to meet hers. "Darling, I'm grateful for the breakfast, it looks lovely, but you don't have to go to the trouble of dressing up for me as well. Pink isn't really your colour..."

Daniel looked down to see Vala's hot pink pyjama robe wrapped around him, still tied in the rough knot he'd thrown together in the pre dawn dark.
