Chapter 6

„C-connor?! Why the freaking heck a-are you here?!" Pete shouted quietly, trying to hide his slight blush.
„Did you ever heard of pri-" he broke up his own sentence he wanted to say.
„riiiiiight... Androids don't feel emotions... Normally..." Pete corrected his thoughts loud and Connor was confused.
„You're also an android. You also shouldn't feel any emotions" Connor said sceptical, causing Pete a little smile.
„I'll explain you later... Could you please... Leave... The room?" Pete asked a bit shy and Connor went out of the bathroom.

Connor went to the living room and sat down on the sofa. After he sat down Pete's feline friend, Cookie, jumped on the sofa next to Connor. The android looked at the cat and the cat looked back at Connor. It were like a staring contest which noone could win nor lose. Short after Cookie climbed on Connors lap and rolled herself together like a ball. A fluffy fur ball!
Connor was able to feel the cats purring and searched in the internet how to pet a cat. Before he could find something, someone sat down next to him and gently took his hand.

„You want to pet her? I'll show you" it was Pete who said that with a smile which made Connor shiver a bit.
He lead Connors hand over the cats fur to pet her.
„You need to go with the stroke of the fur. Never against it. Animals don't like it" Pete explained, still showing how to pet the cat until Connor tried it by himself. He was hesitant and very careful but petted Cookie gently.
Pete liked that picture. An android which wasn't s deviant petted a cat. Silently he made a note to draw something like this in future.
„And after that, we're going to pet Sumo before he feels ignored and abandoned" the deviant said and Sumo lifted his head.

Pete gave Sumo a signal and the giant saint bernard jumped up and immediately placed himself in front of him, laying his head on Petes lap and began to pet him.
Connor watched Pete how he's doing that. He noticed that he used a bit more pressure to pet Sumo. Maybe of the dogs thick pelt coat? Pete took Sumos head and placed his nose on Sumos and Sumo licked over Pete's face multiple times which caused Connor a very slight smile.
„I'm going to bed, you two dorks... Don't make any stupid things" Hank said to them and Pete was confused.
„Is it really that later already?" Asked Pete and turned his upper body and head to Hank to look at him from the sofa.
„I'm not joking... It's 11:47 p.m.... Good night" Hank yawned and went to his bedroom.

„Time flew by that quick..." Pete told quietly while standing up and wiping off the dogs hair. He went quietly to the door and looked back to Connor.
„Where are you going?" Connor asked a bit confused.
„I'm taking a walk" Pete replied, an awkward silence took over the room and nobody made a single noise.
„Do you want to come with me?" Finally Pete asked shyly and scratched his neck.
„Of course!" Connor said happy and got up from the sofa. Suddenly he felt a piece of fabric hitting in his face. He looked at it and realized it was one of Petes hoodies.
„Wear this. With that grey jacket you wear everyone will think if we are going to a crime scene" Pete explained the confused android. Connor took of his jacket and pulled over the hoodie, walking up to Pete who was ready to leave. Pete went out and Connor followed the old prototype, closing the door behind him.
„Where will we go?" Connor asked a bit curious which made Pete laugh quietly.
„You'll see, my friend" Pete replied with a low voice, trying to sound mysterious and went ahead. Connor followed him faster and looked through the neighborhood. He was fascinated by his surroundings. So many houses and streetlights. His view landed on Pete who was two meters in front of him, hearing that he sang quietly and tried to liesten to it. Connor went a bit faster to be nearer to Pete. He was quietly singing that song Hank warned him once not to play it ever again.

Suddenly a car drove past them and Connor scared up, grabbing for Petes arm. Pete first didn't realized what was happening until he looked to this side and saw Connor who was hugging Petes arm after the car scared him. He didn't knew why... But it looked cute... Kinda?
