Pearl gripped Jasper's arm as it flexed, but realized her overzealousness and let go with a soft blush. Watching the woman stir awake made her wish she could have done this every morning. Even with Shay, it had been so long since she'd been able to wake up with someone in the morning. Shay was never in town long and when she was, it seemed like she'd spent less and less time actually being with Pearl. The woman gave a soft sigh, but smiled at Jasper nonetheless. "I slept well enough. Jasper, your bed is fantastic! I can see why you always seem so well-rested." She chuckled and tried not to grab onto Jasper as she untangled herself and rose. Pearl just wanted to stay there a few more minutes, but life was moving on without her whether she wanted it to or not.<br/><br/>Jasper gave her an ultimatum as she rose from the bed and for a moment, Pearl didn't hear her as her eyes traced the hem of those low hanging sweatpants. The larger woman had ample hips on her and all of it was well-placed and properly trained muscle. Even<i>those</i>sweats were still tight around her ass and Pearl couldn't help but stare after the woman as she made her way down the hall to the kitchen. Pearl was left tangled in Jasper's sheets with a blush on her cheeks. Why couldn't this be her life? Maybe one day she could be so lucky, but until she properly broke up with Shay, she had to stop thinking so dirty...<br/><br/>She eventually followed Jasper into the kitchen and washed her hands off in the sink as the giantess seemed to skulk around the kitchen for... supplies? Was she going to cook something? Jasper had never cooked in front of her before and even stayed out of the meal prepping every week for the most part, so Pearl was worried. "Aaah... J-Jasper, why don't<i>I</i>make us some breakfast and you sit down at the island?" She started reaching for things in the cabinets, but most of the ingredients were out of her reach as breakfast was something Jasper did, not her.<br/><br/>Finally out of options to distract herself, she continued to face the counter, placing her palms atop it and splaying her fingers out on the countertop, refusing to look at Jasper behind her. "I... I work, a lot. I think that's likely what happened. I must of worked myself too hard again. I've been cutting out more sleep than normal to... make ends meet and I guess my body reached its limit." She stared down at her hands as they balled into fists and she sighed. "I just have to work smarter is all. I can afford to sleep a bit more in the moments of downtime I have and that will fix it." It wouldn't. She was a workaholic and she was in debt and too blind to see it was all killing her slowly. Pearl was always under the impression that if she kept busy, she'd keep happy. She ate right and she stayed active enough to count as exercise, so she saw nothing wrong with her lifestyle at that moment and more so just saw flaws in her body and counted it weak for not being able to keep up with her stubborn-willed mind.
