Chapter Twenty Two

I began to snuggle closer to my dad's side as my paw began to rub my dad's chest, Of course, He began to purr and murr from my magical touch, According to him.

" You know, Work had been stressful for me.. " He murmured.

I looked up at him, Arching my brow in confusion.

" I mean is, Cuddling with you is killing my stress " He smiled at me.

I just giggled slightly before nuzzling my dad's side.

He only chuckled and wrapped an arm around me, Pulling me closer to him, I squeaked as his fur tickled my nose to which he laughed.

" That was adorable baby boy " He teased, Leaning down to poke my nose, I sneezed and blushed much to my annoyance.

We stayed like this for a while before standing up to take a nice splash in the ocean, He wrapped an arm around my waist as we slowly went out of the hotel, On the way there, I couldn't help but buy this and that in every side of the street.

I looked around for something that I can buy, My eyes wandered for a bit and stopped at a Merchandise.

I gasped, Seeing that it's my favorite anime..

Grimoire Of Zero!

I watch anime in my past time, So don't tell my dad.

Hastily I went towards the store, My dad trailing behind me with a confused look.

The Fur who sells the merch, Smiled at me and greeted.

" Hello! Hello! And Welcome to my store! How may I help you? "

I looked around excitedly before stopping my eyes in front of the fur

" Is there any Large Stuffed Mercenary here? " I asked, Happiness and Hopefulness glinted in my eyes.

He nodded and gestured to the right isle, I couldn't contain myself so I squealed with joy and practically ran towards the isle, Earning a curious look from my father.

But he didn't asked as he just followed me around, Eventually we reached the isle and I couldn't stop squealing as I grab the largest stuffed toy they had.

" Why are you so excited about these stuff? " My father asked, Poking a stuffed Holdem.

" I just love these stuff!, Especially Mercenary! " I practically shouted as I hugged the stuffed toy I had been holding.

" That really doesn't explain anything to why you loved these. " He arched a brow, His arms crossed as he was holding the stuffed Holdem.

" Well, I watch anime, Especially Grimoire of Zero, To which I found this guy! " I motioned to the toy I had been hugging " And That " I pointed to the stuffed toy that my father had been holding.

He just nodded and inspected the toy " I think I'll get this one. " He murmured before walking away to the counter, I dashed off behind him.

" I guess you like Holdem "

" Holda.. What? "

" Holdem, The Wolf guy in your paw " I said, Placing my toy on the counter  Waiting for the previous person to finish.

" Well, I just like the way he dresses " He admitted, Placing it next to mine.

" Pft, He is a guard after all " I huffed, Pushing my toy on the center now.

He just shrugged " I don't wanna encounter your nerdy self " He said with a smirk, Paying for the toys we had, I didn't mind though.

" My nerdy self? Pft. " I shook my head in denial, Reaching for my toy but he beat me to it.

Grr, Advantages of being small.

I only grumbled to which he shrugged with a small triumph smile as he carried the two toys.

He eventually walked out from the store, Sending a nod to the salesman indicating a thanks.

I did the same and eventually we were out and now I'm on my father's side.

" You know, I kinda like this guy's armor, Wish I have this. " He said.

I looked up at him and smiled

" Oh really? I wanna see how it fits with ya, Since you and Mercenary are at the same height, You are the buffer one though. "

He arched a brow and smiled " D'aww.. I'm really curious on how you would look at me when I wear the costume " He teased.

I blushed, Already imagining him in Mercenary's costume.

Oh damn he is hot.

" Imagining me already? " My Father said, Pulling me out of my sexual thoughts.

" U-umm.. Shut up! " I crossed my arms, Looking away as my blush deepened on my fuzzy cheeks.

Four of them.

He only laughed at that as we walked, Walking towards the sandy beach.

Minutes later, We had arrived, Stepping on the warm sand, I couldn't help but feel relaxed.. Of the troubles I had been through, This is a good way to kill it.

" Deep In Thought? " My father asked, Towering beside me.

" Not really deep, Just Light. " I replied before taking a lungful of salty scent of the sea, My ears flickering as I listen to the waves hitting the sandy shore, As If they're clawing out of their prison.

" I kinda like this view. " He muttered, Looking at the sun who is still shining above us.

" I do too.. " I mumbled, Placing my paws in my pocket.

" Wish we could stay here.. " He muttered once again, Sitting on a beach towel that I didn't noticed, He also placed the stuffed toys on my beach towel, Just sitting there beside where I will lay my head.

" This ain't bad to be honest, I'd rather spent my life years in here. "

" Don't you like the river at home? " He asked, Laying on his back, Arms behind his head.

I shrugged and sat back, Playing with the sand using my feet " I like it.. But, It's just silent.. I couldn't help but feel lonely rather enjoying. " I sighed, Watching our friends playing beach volleyball.

" I could feel the same, Beach is way more fun than the river. " He said, Relaxing in his spot and eventually closed his eyes.

I smirked mischievously, With that, I shovel up a pawful of sand, Balling them up in my paws before standing up beside to his sleeping figure.

" Incoming! " I yelled before dropping the sand in his face to which he awoke.

He coughed and coughed as he sat up, As he was finished, He looked at me with amusement and a little glint of mischief.

" Oh, Come here you! " He yelled as he began to scramble up to his feet.

Before he could do, I immediately ran " If You can catch me! " I yelled as I ran through the sandy shore, Picking up the pace, I couldn't help but feel.. Happy, Loving the wind ruffling my fur, My tail swishing behind me as my father chased me, I couldn't even remember when I was so excited on a beach like this.

What could go wrong?
