Old Book, New Chapter. - ReddNook

Chapter sixteen.

Weekend rolled by, and Redd was sleeping in Tom's bed. Even if he had now his own house and bed to sleep.

Tom sat up, as he picked up his phone to check time, it was 9.46 am. He wasn't sure when he last time slept over six am.

He glanced the man next to him, before he got up from the bed. He flinched when he felt hands wrap around his middle.

"Where ya goin'?" the kitsune asked as he pulled him back to the bed. "It's your day off, isn't it?" he mumbled as he rested his head to his shoulder.

He sighed as he removed the kitsune's hands from around his stomach. "It's almost ten, and I was going to make morning coffee." he told, as he got up again.

"It's not even ten yet? Well I'll go back to sleep..." Redd said as he wrapped himself to the blanket.

"Really?" Tom asked as he crossed his arms against his chest. "Yeh. And you can join me, it gets cold when you are not here~" the kitsune purred.

"Put clothes on if you are cold." he told, as he rolled his eyes. "I'll be in kitchen." he told as he walked over to door.

His ears pricked up when he heard thud. He looked over to the kitsune, who was on the floor with the blanket.

"I'm comin' with you, just, wait a second." Redd huffed as he got up from the floor. He threw the blanket back to the bed.

"Then you have to put clothes on." Tom told. "Fine..." Redd mumbled as he pulled his pants on. Then grapped his shirt from the floor and put it on too.

He stretched his arms, and cracked his back- before he went to over to the tanuki. "Happy now?" he asked, as he gave little poke to the tanuki's forehead.

"Yes, thank you." Tom hummed as he opened the door. "Do you want to make breakfast?" he asked closing the door.

"No, you made me to get up too early, sooo it's your job." Redd told, his tail slightly wagging.

He shook his head, as he walked down the stairs. "You told me that you are going to plan what to do today." he hummed as he went to the kitchen.

"Oh, yeh, I have. Well, I got help from cousin, he told we should go see the museum." the kitsune told as he sat down.

"Museum?" Tom asked, as he made coffee for himself and tea for Redd. He nodded, "Yeah! But I guess you have to show around, because I haven't been there before."

"Hm... I guess, but I, myself, haven't been there for few months." Tom told as he put bread in the toaster. He gave Redd his tea. "Do you want bread?"
"Nah, but do you have cereal?"

He rolled his eyes, and opened cabinet. He took box of cereal from the cabinet, he placed the box on the table.

The tanuki opened another cabinet and took bowl from it. He took spoon from drawer, and handed the bowl and the spoon to the kitsune.

He opened the fridge, and took milk and for himself something to put on his toast. He placed the milk on the table, with butter and cheese.

"Thank you, Nooksie~" Redd purred. "Yes, you welcome." the tanuki sighed as he took his breads from the toaster. He sat down.

"I can use nicknames now~ ? That's nice." he chuckled, as he poured cereal to his bowl.

"Well... I don't really mind that much anymore." Tom told, as he made his toasts. "And you would use them even if I say no." he added.

"That's true~ but let's eat so we can leave the house at some point." the kitsune hummed.
In that, they ate. After breakfast they changed their clothes, and brushed their teeths.

Two of them stepped outside, cool wind brushing their hair. Redd hissed slightly, covering his eyes. "It's so bright..."
"Yes, it is, and warm."
"Fuck that."

"Language Redd, language." Tom said, as serious he could sound, before he gave soft chuckle.

The kitsune just gave grin to him. He opened his mouth to say something, but he was cut off by someone's greeting.

"Good morning, mister Nook." soft voice hummed. Both of them looked over to short woman with bear ears and little tail- she was slightly shorter than the tanuki.

"Oh, good morning Maple, how are you?" he asked, giving handshake to her. "And please, it's Tom." he added.

"Yes, of course, honey. And I am doing well, thank you." she said with soft smile. "Oh, and how rude of me, you must be Redd? It's nice to meet you."

"Uh... Right, it's, nice to meet you too." the kitsune mumbled, as he put his hands to his pockets.

"Maple! There you are."
