CatNap woke up with a stretch. He was still in DogDay's house. The canine was fast asleep next to him. CatNap looked at the digital clock that was on the bedside table and saw that it was a little after 2pm. He also noticed that he was in DogDay's bed, asleep next to the canine.
CatNap yawned and laid back down just wanting to sleep the day away. He couldn't, he knows this. He made a risky move and scooted closer to DogDay and decided to cuddle with him.
The scent of vanilla.
He closed his eyes and was nearly back in dreamland when he felt DogDay shift and move. He felt DogDay's arms wrapped around him so they were both holding each other.
DogDay was awake, he woke up when CatNap woke up. He could've said something, he could've said no more sleeping and made them go outside, but he just couldn't.
He decided to hold the feline, he doesn't know why. He just had to hold him. He absolutely had to. After about 30 minutes of pretending to sleep he felt CatNap leave his hold and walk away.
He heard a door close and he decided to officially wake up. He looked at the clock beside his bed and sighed when he saw the time. He glanced at the date and his heart stopped.
He mentally face palmed. He wasn't late on the spring cleaning he was right on time. It was spring! He groaned and fell back against his pillows.
"Is something wrong, puppy?" CatNap asked him
"I just realized the date. It's spring and here I thought I was late on the whole spring cleaning thing." He said
"Did you finish or did you shove everything back into the closet?" CatNap asked him
DogDay got up and opened the closet and CatNap was surprised to see it was clean and organized.
"I'm sorry that I didn't help when I said that I would." CatNap told him
"No it's okay, Kitty. You were probably still sleepy and the tea didn't help that. You're fine. I did find the box that the quilt was supposed to be in, so that's a plus." He told him, "What about you? Did you get your spring cleaning done?"
"I did mine a bit early. Right before spring began. It was around late winter, early spring." CatNap told him
"That's great." DogDay's tail wagged happily
CatNap stretched a bit, "You want to know the downside of all of this?"
His tail stopped wagging, "Of what exactly?"
"My natural scent being lavender." CatNap chuckled
"Oh. What's the downside?"
"I'm still affected by it. Like I'm use to it, but it still manages to put me to sleep without warning." He said
"Are you still sleepy?" DogDay asked him
"Very." He yawned, "I can sleep all day and night."
"I wanna test that actually." DogDay chuckled
"You wanna test how long I can stay asleep?"
He nods, "Yeah why not."
CatNap thought about it, "How about tomorrow? In the afternoon we can start and you can run your little test."
DogDay hugged him, "Thank you, Kitty."
"It's no problem puppy." CatNap chuckled as he took in his scent again
CatNap headed back home not long after that. He saw a few people out. Bobby was talking to Crafty. Hoppy was taking to Kicken about something, both of them were very talkative with their body language and hands. He didn't see Bubba or Picky which was semi normal. Picky was most likely in her home making something to eat or making something for everyone to try. And Bubba was probably in his home as well reading of tinkering with something.
CatNap entered his home and saw the picture still on his table. He grabbed it and stuck it on his cork board that Bobby insisted that he buy.
He smiled at the memory and was about to make himself some tea when he heard a commotion, he looked out the window and saw Kicken chasing Bobby and Crafty with something all while Hoppy was standing back laughing.
That went on for about five minutes when DogDay stepped outside and got Kicken to stop then scolded both Kicken and Hoppy. Bobby and Crafty thanked DogDay and he told them that it was no problem.
Whatever Kicken had scared the girls good cause Crafty was near tears at the sight of it. What was it? A rubber spider. It didn't even look realistic. He just probably showed them it and panic set in without them noticing that it was fake.
Kicken who was upset that his little prank went wrong went into Bubba's home. He didn't even knock, he just walked right in.
CatNap shook his head and went back to his previous task: making himself some tea.
As the water was boiling he went back to observing everyone from his little window. Picky came out with some flower shaped cookies and let whoever was outside try them.
The kettle went off and CatNap went back to the kitchen and continued to make himself some tea. When it was done he sat it down on the table to cool. He went back to the window. He didn't see anyone else outside a aside from Crafty and Bobby. The two were heading to Crafty's place holding hands.
He gasped as he saw Bobby kiss Crafty on the cheek making the unicorn giggle. The two shared a kiss before disappearing into Crafty's house.
CatNap couldn't believe what he saw, could they be dating. But it didn't make sense, they argue almost every single day. At one point in time Bobby pushed Crafty's unfinished painting into the sand as she was painting Kicken surfing. And in return Crafty smashed Bobby's camera. DogDay did make the two of them apologize, but they still argue. Seeing them hold hands and kiss seems like something out of a dream.
CatNap shook his head, he can worry about it later. He grabbed his tea that had cooled off and headed up to his room. He grabbed a book with his tail as he got comfortable in his bed. He sat his tea on his nightstand as he opened his book and got started on his book.
He couldn't wait to spend all day and night with DogDay tomorrow.
