Alright, Managed to get this one up on time

------------------------------------------------

'''Scooby dooby doo, Where are you? Got some work to do now!''' 

I quietly sang along under my breath to the opening theme as it started to play from the old Tv I had in my room.

A muffled chuckle caught my attention however.

''Oh come on, It's catchy!'' I reasoned, Tilting my head back to look up at the man sitting criss cross applesauce on my bed.

He grinned down at me, His eyes sparkling with amusement.

''Ah ain't denying that'' He said, Sounding amused.

I rolled my eyes, Frowning up at his amused face, ''Why are you amused than?'' I asked, Starting to get defensive.

''Ah it's jus', Nice to see ya not tryin' ta be all tough'' He drawled out, A annoyingly fond smile on his face.

I blinked before pulling my pillow out of my sleeping bag.

''I do not 'Pretend' I am tough'' I said, Puffing up my chest slightly.

He chuckled at that, Grinning at me, ''Naw, Yer cute'' He shot back, Clearly pushing for a fight as he slowly reached for his pillow.

''Take it back!'' I laughed out, Proceeding to hit him upside his head with the soft pillow.

''Nevah!'' He laughed back, Hitting me in my chest with the pillow.

I grinned back at him, Raising the pillow as we both went to full on pillow war.

--- Time skip ---

Eric and I both leaned on each other as we caught our breaths, A truce having been called, By me, Because we were both starting to get sweaty.

''Ew, We're both sweaty. . .'' I grumbled out between panted breaths.

He chuckled, Slinging a slightly sweaty muscled arm over my shoulders only for my to promptly shove it off.

''Aww, An' here ah thought ya were manly'' He drawled out, Chuckling slightly as he held his hands up in surrender.

I rolled my eyes, Going over to my dresser to grab a change of clothes.

''I am. Manly.'' I said firmly, Setting the clothes down on my sleeping bag.

''Than why aren' we still fightin'?'' He asked, His accent calming down.

''Because sweat smells bad, It's sticky and gross.'' I said firmly, Crossing my arms before uncrossing them once I noticed they were slightly sweaty.

I picked back up my clothes, Heading for my bathroom.

''Where are ya goin'?'' Eric asked, Starting to follow me.

I spun around, Placing my hand on his chest to keep him at arm distance.

''Down boy, I'm just going to take a shower'' I lightly teased, Pushing on him slightly.

He blinked before a slight blush started to form on his face, ''Aye, Sorry fur stopping ya than'' He said, Backing off.

''Oi, Get your mind out of the gutter'' I scolded, Flipping him off as I walked into the bathroom.

I heard a chuckle from him as I closed the door behind me.

I took off my shirt only to notice, I forgot to grab a shirt. . .

I was considering putting the sweaty shirt back on so I could go grab a shirt. . .
