EARLY TO BED, EARLY TO RISE MAKETH
A MAN HEALTHY, WEALTHY AND WISE
(old English proverb)

Five o’clock. A.M. Bed is so warm and comfortable. It’s still night. Just turn on your other side, encircle your wife’s waist and hold her tight. ‘Rangiku... Feels so nice. My favourite pair of Bristols and that delicate scent of lily of the glen...’
‘Uhm... Shuuhei... Love... Kiss me, Shuu...’ Ooh, what a shapely bum...
(Any road, chuffed to bits, who would refuse such a pleasant request from your own fit bird... ermm, from your lovely wife, that is! Filching just a little, tender kiss... Delightful... tastes like baked apples with honey and cinnamon)
‘You’re my honey, I’m your bee...’

Oh Sweet Fanny Adams...!
FOOTSTEPS.

“Please don't wake me, no
don't shake me
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping”

('Don’t react, pretend that you’re soundly asleep. Oh no, not asleep: DEAD. If you look like someone who’s asleep, there’s a chance that you shall be woken up!!! Good dog, Shuuhei, good bitch, Rangiku... Play dead!')

“Daddy, Daddy, wake up! I want to play!”

('Don’t say a word. Silence, patience – remember you’re dead. Pushin’ up daisies')

“Please don't spoil my day
I'm miles away”

Shuuhei’s arm was being pulled. Quite forcefully, as a matter of fact.

“Toshi, it’s five o’clock A.M.! It’s still night, go back to sleep, littlun” Shuuhei murmured tiredly.
“Not true, Daddy! Sun’s up! Birdies are singin’! It’s morning” the strenuous little man replied with an enormous amount of self-confidence.
“I’m tired, Toshi, Mummy and I need more sleep than you. Go and play with your tank engines, son”
“Aww, stop talking a lot of codswallop, Daddy! Thomas can’t do all the work by himself, he’s jus’ a poor little engine! Needs Duck and Toby to help him, Daddy. And Mum’s the best Bertie in the whole world” Toshihiko’s smile was a right blinding one.
‘It looks just like Rangiku’s’, Shuuhei mused.
“Eee you cheeky monkey!” Rangiku said, yawning.
The husband and wife gave each other meaningful looks.

And in the end they both have to get up, pick Bertie the Bus and The Fat Controller from the floor (how on Earth did they manage to get into their bedroom any road?!?)...
...and Bob’s your uncle!
