Lachlan lays on the floor in the laundry, watching Byron sit cross-legged with Christopher Robin on his lap. The small kitten laps at the droplets of milk on Byron's fingers and Lachlan suppresses small giggles as his scratchy tongue gives Byron goosebumps.
"What were you messaging me for, angel?" Byron asks, voice softer than Lachlan's ever heard it as he finishes feeding Christopher Robin the milk. Lachlan smiles, leaning across to stroke the kittens small body.
"I wanted to ask your thoughts on getting him a friend," Lachlan whispers, glancing up at Byron as he speaks. Byron's eyebrows twitch as he regards Lachlan carefully.
"A... friend?" Byron repeats slowly, looking down at Christopher Robin then back up again. "You mean another kitten."
"Byron," Lachlan sings, rolling across the towel to press up against Byron's knees. "He could use a friend. Otherwise he'll be alone all day."
"You'll be home."
"No, I won't. Not if I get this new job."
Byron purses his lips, not once stopping the gentle stroke of Christopher Robin's fur. He seems like he's genuinely considering it and Lachlan hides a grin against Byron's knee.
"No, angel, we can't—" Byron finally says and Lachlan sighs, rolling onto his back to stare at the ceiling.
It was worth a try, he thinks. Maybe one day when Christopher Robin is older...
"—adopt a new kitten without Alex and Sol's permission too," Byron finishes. "But, then again, that's not something they'd ever agree to, hey?"
Feeling his heart flutter, Lachlan sits up, careful to not startle the kitten that's slowly falling asleep against Byron's hand. He stares hard at Byron, a grin pulling at the corners of his lips.
"Better to ask forgiveness than permission?"
Byron grins at Lachlan and stands with Christopher Robin. He sets the kitten down in his small nest of towels and Lachlan's gaze lingers as he follows Byron from the laundry.
