By the time we arrived back home, Soldier and Engie headed into the kitchen to make some dinner. While they were at it, I carried Lieutenant Bites to the living room where the rest of the mercenaries were doing some activities. Scout and Pyro were playing Switch games on tv, while Demo was taking a nap with a bottle in his hand. Heavy was reading his favorite Russian literature on the couch. And at a round table, the support classes had eyes fixed on their cards, playing a game of poker. Just as I walked in, everyone stopped whatever they were doing before looking over.

"Oh sweet cheeks! You're back!" The Bostonian paused the game to give me a hug until he noticed a critter in my arms. "And what the? What's with a raccoon ya got there?"

"Vhat?! Ve now have a filthy animal in zhis house?!" Spy instantly shot up from his seat and came to where I stood. "Mon amour, vhy did you and Soldier bring such a nasty creature here? It might have a disease or somezhing!"

"Jane decided to keep him as a pet." I explained.

"Mon Dieu!" The Frenchman became infuriated and shouted at his American teammate. "Soldier, I've told you before! NO. MORE. STUPID. RACCOONS!"

"Listen here, you croissant!" The azure-eyed mercenary marched from our kitchen, angrily fixing his collar and tie. "Accept the fact that Bites is now part of our team! That is an order!"

"Part of our team?!" The suit-cladded man shook his head in disagreement. "Vhat in the hell are you thinking, you simpleton?! Vhy zome disgusting trash animal straight from the forest?!"

"He saved (Y/N) from that BLU counterpart of mine!"

"Vhat?..." Raising an eyebrow, Spy looked at me. "Is it true, chérie?"

I nodded in response and explained the entire story to Spy and the rest of his team, going over how Soldier and I met Lieutenant Bites in the forest, how we played hide-and-seek, and how a BLU counterpart almost ruined it until the critter successfully attacked him. At first, disbelief spread across their faces; but however, that was short lived when they noticed how serious I was.

"Alright zhen." The French mercenary sighed, knowing that there was nothing else he could do about it before turning to his friend. "He can stay, Soldier, but he needs to sleep outside. Just zhat I don't vant him to soil (Y/N)'s room."

"But Lieutenant Bites needs something to sleep in." The blond teammate stated.

"There's a small shed in the garden, Jane." I suggested. "It has enough space, so I can place some beddings in there for him."

~~~Few hours later~~~

It was time for bed, and everyone was fully satiated from a scrumptious dinner that Soldier and Engie cooked. Just as promised, Lieutenant Bites got to sleep in the garden shed, snuggling in a neatly made pile of plush pillows and blankets I prepared. While the mercenaries rolled out their sleeping bags, I was getting dressed in the bathroom, slipping into a comfortable tank top and shorts and brushing my (H/C) hair. Once that was done, I turned the knob, only to be greeted by a certain American waiting for me at the doorway.

"Ready for bed, Cupcake?" Soldier was already in his white tank top and red sweatpants. "You need to sleep for tomorrow."

"Yep." I yawned a little. "It's going to be Pyro's turn."
