"What." Krell asked, "Is that."
Steve couldn't stop laughing, and Aja had an enormous grin on her face. "It's our baby! Well not a real one, of course, but kind of a practice one. Isn't he cute? His name is Peanut!"
Krell eyed the small creature, a fluffy, twitchy thing wearing a red harness and leash, and shook his head doubtfully. "It is strange to me. Is it a dog?" He turned to Eli questioningly, and the smaller boy shook his head at Steve and Aja.
"It's a squirrel Krell. I'm not even sure it's legal to own one. They can carry plague too." Peanut chittered and scurried closer, and Krell backed away carefully. "I apologize, but I do not like this small creature very much. Eli and I are going to be going... wherever is far away from it."
Aja snorted, but didn't seem too offended. Krell and Eli beat a hasty retreat, and Aja pretended not to notice when the two joined hands close to the corner, thinking they were out of sight. If Krell and Eli weren't ready to be out about their relationship, then she wouldn't pressure them. She picked up Peanut and set him on Steve's shoulder, where the little squirrel happily played yanked on his hair with its tiny little paws.
"That was a funny joke, but where did you get this small creature? He is so friendly, but I do not think I should keep him or Loug might eat him." Steve grinned and stroked Peanut's head. "Oh it's fine, Peanut lives in my chimney at home. I've been feeding him since he was a baby, so he's fine with people. Don't worry, I won't let him near Loug. Want to take him home and get milkshakes?"
Aja grinned and looped her arm through Steves', letting him guide her away down the street, Peanut happily riding along on Steve's head.
*Hey all! Thank you @Elf_girl333 for another great idea, might do the monopoly bit next?
