It Started With The Dog

~7~

A/N Can we talk about that Razor pic for a minute? Just- mwah  😙👌

Razor POV

              After I had eaten, I watched Bennett. He wasn't doing anything, just petting Klauen. Still, it was fun to watch, as she'd often go to lick his mouth and he'd just dodge laughing. I laughed too sometimes, like when she managed to get him. He'd wipe his tongue off and explain how gross it was. 

              "Seriously, Klau, I love you, but do not do that." Bennett patted her head. She looked like she wasn't listening, which turned out to be true since she just did it again. "Klau likes Bennett," I said while laughing. Bennett blinked at me. "Yeah.. but maybe a little too much." I shook my head. "No, Klauen love endless." Bennett blinked again. "But you're her owner, clearly she loves you more?"

             I smiled. "Maybe." We continued to play around with her through the night. We stayed up pretty late too, maybe time really does fly when you're having fun. I leashed Klau again. "Bennett needs to go home?" Bennett pulled out his phone. "Shoot, yeah I guess," He looked at me. "Oh yeah, you probably don't have anywhere to stay right?" I nodded and looked at the ground.

             There was a small pause. "I guess you could maybe sleep on the couch in my room at my house?" Bennett sounded unsure of his words. I looked up at him. "Really?" He paused and quickly looked away. "I mean I'd have to ask my Dads but yeah probably." I went up and hugged him. "Thank you." He hugged me too. "No prob."

Bennett POV

             WHY DID I SAY THAT. I know Razor's my friend, and I know he needs somewhere to stay but still! My parents are probably gonna say no anyway, what'll he do then? Whatever. Right now I just need to ask and see. Once we got to my house I took a pause. "You may want to keep Klau leashed," Razor tilted his head. "My Dads' don't like when there's fur or dust on the floor." He nodded and I opened the door.

             "Bennett! There you are," Papa came running up to me, he grabbed my shoulders. "Are you hurt? Sick?" I laughed and pushed his arms away. "No no, I'm fine," I turned to Razor, who was still outside. "Uh, would you mind if my friend and his dog sleepover?" Papa looked over my shoulder. He looked back at me. "Are you sure this is your friend? He looks like a crook." I held back laughter. "I'm sure."

             While Papa was looking razor up and down Dad came in. "Hey, Benny. What's Papa doing?" "Oh, I brought a friend over and asked if he could sleep over." Dad walked up to Papa and I watched them whisper to each other. Razor looked at me, he seemed a little scared. I shrugged.

              "Alright Benny, we made a decision," I looked at him, my hope probably shone through my face because he smiled. "He can stay, just make sure his dog doesn't shed too much." I hugged Dad. "Thank you!" I grabbed Razor's hand and pulled him upstairs.

               "He's got an interesting friend." Papa hit Dad. "Hush. Young love is cute."
