A young boy in the rain, partially soaked wet with his school bag over his head to protect himself from further getting even more wet, made his way running back to home. He wasn't really worried about his bag or his cloths. He was more worried about his odd fashioned hair falling apart and revealing it's natural look. Even though nobody in particular was around, he was still self conscious about it. Something small and white falling in mid air caught his attention. Paying no mind to it he continued his run.

He finally made his way under the roof of his house and dropped his bag to the side in one hand. He used his free hand to wipe away the water that soaked his eyebrows and eyelashes that threatened to fall in his eyeballs that would give a light burning sensation and a slight blurring effect. He flicked the liquid away and rang the bells on the walls of his house.

A few seconds later a woman way shorter than the boy answered the door. Upon finding it was her son, she immediately made way and let him in. "oh look how the rain got you sweetie, if only you had listened to your mother for once and took your bicycle to school. It'd be alot easier and faster for you to get home quicker!" she immediately started giving him his daily dose of lecture.

The young boy rolled his eyes and took his shoes and socks off at the door step." alright ma, i get it.. " unfortunately for him, his mom saw his little attitude and gave him a threatening look. He immediately took notice and sweat formed on his temples.

"uh-um.., so what's for dinner tonight ma!?" he changed the subject swiftly by distracting her mother with a simple question.

Which always worked. He sighed and gave himself a victory in his head for not getting his careless bum in  trouble. He loved his mom dearly, but sometimes she was worse than a sunburn, or any other life problem at hand. He glad he avoided it.

"dinner? Glad you asked, go take a shower first, you stink young man" she slapped her sons hands away which was inching closer to the cooking pot with a wooden spoon.

"ouchh, you didn't have to do that you know.." he dramatically pouted in attempt to get a peak of what she made. But she saw right through his tricks. "quite being a baby, one more childish behavior and you're watching me eat all the dinner tonight" the boy dramatically ran in his room while the mother giggled to herself in pride of her motherly self.

"sily boy, when will he ever grow up". She smiled to herself, images of his baby self flashing in her mind.

After the boy had gotten done with getting freshened up, he first peaked in the kitchen to make sure his mom's back was turned so he could easily sneak in the living room. Seeing an opening, he sneaked into the living room, turning the television on and is gaming console.

Even though he managed to sneak in, he had forgotten about his loud console and it definitely made sure his mom knew about him playing it. He cringed at the thought of the loud sound of the TV and was ready to get yelled at by his mom again.

"josuke? Games? Again?" she sighed and rubbed her temples. "come on mom, it literally rained. I'm sure tomorrow's off from school!" josuke desperately looked at his mom with puppy eyes. "ugh, sure. But please don't forget to have dinner". He sighed and took his jacket off feeling a bit too warm and threw it in a random corner of the living room.

"alright, I'm going to bed. Don't stay up too late alright?"

"k ma, don't worry" lies, he was gonna stay up late anyways. He giggled to himself.

Fast forward a few hours later. It was 3 am and josuke decided to play a horror game. He was totally into it but he didn't expect anything in real life considering it was just a game. The room was dark. His eyes were fixated on the TV screen. From the corner of his eyes he saw something move. He ignored it the first time. But it started moving again. That's when he started to freak out a bit.

"w-what the hell? Hey! I know you're not real!come out, I'm not scared of you! "

He grabbed a chopstick from his bowl and started poking the thing. He heard weird squeaky sound. Which obviously creeped him out. Josuke felt and saw the goblin under his jacket getting a hold of his chop stick with its mouth."h-huh?" he blinked a couple of times before internally screaming both with the combination of something alive and thunderstorm outside. He reacted by yeeting the chopstick across the room which made the jacket and the little guy inside land on the sofa.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

The little guy woke up with a little headache from the impact. It opened it's eyes to be met with complete darkness. Of course it panicked and started moving around. It tried to spread it's wings but couldn't because of a heavy sheet that was laid across it.
It heard something but didn't pay attention to it.
It was getting hard to breathe for it now.

It felt something poking it, maybe it was food? The little guy bit it, but felt itself getting levitating then getting thrown across the room. This time landing onto something more comfortable. It cried a bit because of the harsh treatment.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

"c-calm down now man, it's probably just a small r-rat"

I inhaled and exhaled deeply. Readying myself for what i was about to face. With shaky hands and a chopstick in my hands, i slowly slide it underneath my jacket and throw my jacket away. What i saw was absolutely fucking terrifying, what even was that??
Whatever it was i screamed like a bitch and slapped my mouth shut realizing that my mom probably woke up. "oh fuck"

I took a closer look at the creature to see it scared? And actually, it's quite cute.. It has wings? I eyed it while it was shaking. I noticed it's big eyes getting watery. "w-wait, are you crying??" i realized it was probably because of me and immediately felt guilty.
"ohhh no, I'm so sorry little guy!" i slowly pulled my hand towards it only to see it shift back wards away. Probably in fear.

"aw man, I'm such an asshole.."

I remembered i left some pork in my bowl and decided to feed it. Which sort of started working. The little guy hesitantly made it's way onto my palm and started snacking on the pork. "damn, how Lind have you been starving for little buddy?" it looked up at me with a little confidence. Then i got to take another close look to it. Scales, wings, shiny eyes. The physique of a reptile and wings of a bird.

"a dragon??, no way.."

Once it got comfortable in my palm, i bought it near my chest very slowly. It panicked a bit but calmed down once it came near my chest. I quietly called out crazy diamond and healed the little bump on it's head. "oh so you're the little guy who i saw falling today, must've been painful. Don't worry, you're fine now.." i started petting it's head and it purred slowly closing it's eyes. "cute" i smiled to myself.

I tried to do some research on the pc in our house but i couldn't find anything on this little guy. It looked pretty immature like a baby. It was about 12 inches the size of my arm. Quite small if it's a baby dragon.
Not knowing how long I've been staring at it, i eventually fell asleep along with it.
