Smiling Students (Poppy Playtime HS AU)

Chapter 15☁️

(Dogday's POV)

I woke up in my bed, I groaned as I sat up and looked at my clock, still hugging my blankets as I saw that I had 2 minutes before my alarm went off.

"Oh, fuck off..." I groaned quietly as I sat on the edge of my bed, giving my alarm the death stare as I watched the time tick down.

As soon as it went off, I slammed my hand down on it, not wanting to hear that stupid tone that haunted me every morning.

I sighed as I got up and immediately headed into my bathroom, turning the shower on to the max temperature and tossing off my pajamas, throwing them onto the floor in my room.

I felt really pissed off today, and I don't really know why... Maybe it's just because today is Monday...

I reached into the shower with one arm as I felt the temperature of the water on my palm, the water gently rushing down on my hand as I quickly pulled it back.

I stepped into the shower as I leaned against the wall and crossed my arms, letting the water wash my body for me, something was clearly bothering me today...

I traced the shower with my eyes as I looked around in boredom, continuing to cross my arms as I eventually noticed a crank that I didn't know had existed...

I inched towards it as I cautiously turned it, noticing that more water was coming from different angles, above me, behind me, in front, everywhere!

I turned it more as the water pressure increased, firing water at me from all angles as I quickly started to get excited, I then turned the crank down as the water pressure stopped.

I curiously grabbed some shampoo as I scrubbed a bunch on my body, eager to find out how well this other function actually worked.

I was basically completely covered in soap as I let out a sigh, putting my hand back on the crank as I hesitated a bit...

"Alright, water, work your magic." I mumbled to myself as I turned the crank all the way up, hot water blasting me from every angle as I laughed and giggled with excitement and joy.

I turned the crank down again as I noticed my entire body had been cleaned off, and I decided that I would test out any other features of this shower later...

I stepped out and grabbed a towel and blow dryer, drying myself off as I once again got puffy fur, laughing as I straightened it out with a comb, returning my fur to the neat-messy form it was before.

I stepped out of the bathroom and randomly threw on a white t-shirt, some grey jeans, and my coat that was usually just used for being stylish.

I sighed again as I felt refreshed, my head being clear as I stepped out into my living room, going to my fridge to get something to eat.

Although when I stepped into my kitchen, I noticed a plate of bacon with coffee sitting on the counter, and I immediately tensed up.

"Huh...? I never cooked bacon...? I didn't cook anything today, yet..." I said softly as I walked over to the counter and noticed a note on the table.

I picked the note up and read it in my head, reading the following:

"Hey, Dogday! I decided to sneak into your house and cook you up a lil' something! I heard you showering upstairs, so I decided to make you some breakfast!"

"I made it myself, my own way of cooking it, no stove, microwave, or anything! And no, I'm not telling ya' my secrets!"

"Have a good day today! For me, ya' hear!?"

- Neko Maxwell 🤍

I panicked a little bit when I read the note, but after I read it fully, I concluded that Neko only decided to make me food, then left immediately afterwards.

Although, I guess I should just make sure...

"Neko?! You in my house still?!" I shouted out loud as I heard absolutely no response whatsoever, so I shrugged it off and took the plate and coffee to my dinner table.

I ate as I reviewed the food in my head, I'll be honest, it was pretty damn good, Catnap's lucky to have such a fine cook living in his house...

"Hm... Lucky bastard..." I mumbled jokingly as I drunk the coffee, which was cold, and sweet, I never liked coffee, but for some reason, this actually tasted pretty good!

I washed my dishes as I sat down on my couch and looked at my phone, reading the time as I saw that it read "6:10 PM".

I had 20 minutes to do whatever I wanted before I had to actually get rolling to school, so I just scrolled on my phone and watched TikTok.

I was pretty popular around my school, but maybe a bit too popular... I followed some of my school accounts, and surprisingly, I saw some edits of myself, and other students as I scrolled.

Although, I ended up catching a video of Catnap playing baseball, I got to see him from the front as he was in a basic stance, nothing special...

But when the ball came towards him, he looked like he barely hit it with any effort, yet it was sent flying, it was a home run, believe it or not!

I watched in amazement as Catnap casually ran base to base, celebrating smugly as his teammates cheered him on in the background.

I scrolled one last time to see... Neko?! How was he already on our school's TikTok page?! That's gotta be a world record or something...

Anyways, this video contained Neko and another person that seemed to be a street fighter... I get some of these people post weird stuff, but street fights? Come on TikTok...

Neko cracked his neck as he unzipped his jacket and threw it into the wind, a cinematic shot being taken as he did so, and afterwards, the fight began.

I watched as Neko dodged every single hit with extreme efficiency, and the street fighter seemed to actually be trying his hardest.

Neko smirked as I watched him catch the street fighter's arm, smacking him across the face and roundhouse kicking him into an immediate knockout.

The video ended with a simple edit of Neko showing off, and I was stunned, I never expected Neko to be a person who fights...

I looked at the time again, and it read "6:25 PM" as I panicked mentally and sat up immediately, grabbing my keys and bolting out of my front door.

Maybe I'd talk with Neko and Catnap about their talents... It'd be fun...
