Jerk! (TADC | Jax x Ragatha)

2 - If I could

The ragdoll woke up, her hair a mess and her dress all wrinkled. No sign of Jax. He probably went to his room. Ragatha got up, grabbed a key off of her bedside table, and exited her room.

Jax had given her a key about a month after they started doing their "routine", incase she ever needed to go to his room for whatever reason.

She put the key in the lock, turned it, and ever so slightly pushed the door open. There he was, sleeping. His room a mess.

With some peace of mind, she closed the door and headed to the kitchen to make herself breakfast.

There floated Caine, seemingly idle.

"Uhm.. Caine?"

Caine immediately looked at her, catching Ragatha off guard.

"Why hello Ragatha! What seems to be the problem?"

He says in his usual booming voice.

"..Uh, nothing."

"Okay then!"

He then disappears.

She shakes off the interaction, and grabs a bowl. She takes some milk out of the refrigerator as well.

"Now where is the cereal.."

She thought to herself. She looked around, finally spotting it in the top cabinet.

..The top cabinet.

Ragatha jumped and reached for minutes nonstop, trying her best to reach the box of cereal. After a while, she stops to catch her breath. When she looks back up, the cereal box is gone.

And behind her is Jax, holding it.

"Oh!"

Exclaims Ragatha, surprised by his sudden presence.

"Maybe 'doll face' doesn't cut it. How does 'short stuff' work, dolly~?"

He asks, grinning.

"Doesn't work at all"

"Hm, not even a little bit?"

"Nope."

"Coulda sworn you were jumping up and down for a box of cereal."

"Well when you put it like that you make me sound like a kid!"

"Well.."

Ragatha pouts and huffs, turning away from Jax.

"Aww cmon dolly, don't do that."

"Hmph."

Jax tries to step infront of her, but Ragatha keeps turning her body away.

"Pleaase Raggy? I'll be a good rabbit."

"Hmph."

Jax finally manages to step infront of her. He holds her by the shoulders, and crouches down to her height.

He then gives her puppy eyes. She tried not to look at him, but the second she did, she caved.

Ragatha rubbed Jax's head with her hand.

"You know I don't handle puppy eyes well.."

"All the more reason to do it, dolly. You being mad at me is basically like not being able to tease someone for a whole day. It sucks"

"Awww, you hate it when I'm mad at you?"

"Hate is a strong word, Raggs. More like mildly to greatly dislike."

"Sounds like hate to mee~"

"..You suck."

Jax stood up straight, and went back to his wide grin.
