I woke up in the middle of the night. According to my clock it was 3:00 am.
Crap, I don't feel tired anymore.
I ended up turning on the light of my room and having a look at my wound.
Whatever drugs they gave me must have been a rapid-heal type of deal, because the wound was now gone, and my fur/body went back to normal.
I removed the bandages and tossed them into the trash.
I still feel awake. Might as well grab a bite to eat.
Thinking about food, I left my room and headed towards the kitchen. The lights in the room turned on as I walked in.
I opened the fridge and grabbed a small box of microwaveable pasta. After opening the box and unwrapping the container, I dump the pasta onto the plate and put it in the microwave for 5 minutes.
And that's when Avocato appeared out of nowhere.
"You're awake too?"
I gasped and turned around to see Avocato, wearing his pants and OH MY CRAP, HE WAS SHIRTLESS.
WHY HERE?!? WHY NOW?!?!
I calmly looked away towards other directions instead of looking at him.
"Hey, y-yeah, I'm an "early bird gets the worm" type of guy, you know?"
"Right, right."
We stayed quiet and soon he broke the silence.
"Mind pouring me a glass of water?"
"S-sure."
I grabbed a cup from the pantry and changed the sink setting to tap water. I place the cup, and the water was instantly inside the cup. I hand it to Avocato.
"Thanks, I was thirsty."
"Anytime."
As he chugged the whole thing, I stared at his pecs for 3 seconds.
He's buffed! Keep it together, Pawblo!
I then look away as he's setting the cup down.
"Hey, Pawblo."
"Y-yeah?"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure. Anything."
Avocato stayed silent for a bit and asked.
"Why did you save me all those times?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Well, you saved my life too many times, man. You killed Terk before he shot me, jumped in front of a bullet for me, and killed a bunch of S.A.M.E.S."
"Oh, THOSE times. Well, it was nothing, really."
"You got injured."
"So? I'm now completely healed."
"Back to the question. Why did you save me all those times?"
I stayed silent for a bit.
Should I tell him?
You can tell him.
"Well........I did it because....I didn't want to see anyone else get hurt. Especially a good friend."
Avocato then blushed (HE DID IT AGAIN!) and replied.
"You think of me as a good friend?"
"Yeah. You are."
We stayed silent for a bit until I spoke up.
"Gary told me about your son."
"Did he?"
"Yeah. You must really love him."
"He's all I got left."
I then decided on something.
"Clasp of friends?" I raise my hand.
Avocato noticed and smirked. "We clasp."
We gripped our hands. His hand felt warm.
"Avocato, I want to make you a promise."
"What is it?"
I sigh and let it out.
"I promise with all my might, no matter what bullet I have to take for you, I will help you get your son back!"
Avocato was astounded by my words. "You....you mean it?"
I gave him a look of determination. "Positive, or my name isn't Pawblo."
Avocato let go of my hand and smiled. "Thank you, Pawblo."
"Anytime....friend."
Avocato yawned and stretched his arms, making me force myself to not stare at his perfect pecs.
WHY MUST HE BE SHIRTLESS?!?
"Well, I'm going back to sleep. Later, Pawblo."
He then walks away and heads towards his room.
I just stand there and ponder what the hell just happened.
"Man, those pecs...."
Ding!
"Oh, my pasta's ready!"
