Wanda's reaction to MC and Gabi surprising her with breakfast in bed?
“Don’t drop it,” Gabi repeats for the hundredth time, glancing at the enormous tray you’re using to precariously balance her mother’s breakfast.
You ask the little girl, “Why are we even giving her so much food, Gabi?”
“Mama eats a lot in the morning. Plus, they said breakfast is the most important meal of the day— at school!” Gabi nods confidently. She smiles—that grin that’s missing a couple of teeth—and waits for your reply.
“And the sprinkles?” you prompt with an amused look.
“Fairies—” Gabi’s latest obsession, “fairies make sprinkles and sprinkles are the—”
You vaguely listen to her rant, more focused on keeping the food on the tray as you and Gabi approach Wanda’s bedroom—and you bite back a laugh, when you hear her light snoring, which Gabi often calls a dragon’s cough.
“Knock lightly,” you warn her and, though Gabi nods, she still bangs her little fist on the door “Okay— Nevermind.”
There’s a little choking sound from inside as Gabi gets on her tiptoes, opens the bedroom door and says (loudly), “Surprise!”
Wanda hastily—and groggily—takes off her sleeping mask, hair tussled, her eyes are still half-open and riddled with sleep as she struggles to keep them open. You swear you hear her mumble, “Who died?”
Which you suppose is better than her cursing in front of Gabi.
“We made you breakfast,” you clarify. Gabi tugs on your shirt, and you add, “Surprise!”
Wanda rubs her eyes, finally looks at you with a smile equal parts exhausted and adoring. She stretches, pulls off the covers—which is practically a sign for Gabi to throw herself on the bed.
“We worked hard,” she lies—unless adding the sprinkles last minute is indeed Gabi’s definition of hard work. “The fairies helped, too.”
Wanda nods solemnly at Gabi’s words, gives you a fond look, makes grabby hands until you hand her the trail. “Damn, that’s heavy— Oh, that’s a lot!”
You and Gabi share a glance— the little girl shrugs a little.
“You two~” Wanda coos, looking a little more awake “The lights of my life! If you keep being so cute— my heart is going to melt!”
And when Gabi is too busy munching on a sprinkle-covered pancake, Wanda sneaks you a kiss.
