"Len! Look at her! Isn't she so cute?" Miku purred, fawning over the cute little kitty-cat that stared back at her from the worn cardboard box.

"Mhm, is that so?" Len muttered, his eyes not once lifting from the black typed words of the book he was reading. Miku pouted. She knew Len loved reading, almost to the point that there were times where she'd wonder if Len liked his books more than her, but this was a cute little kitty they were talking about here!

Without thinking, she grabbed the kitty out of its box, holding it under its armpits as she held the kitty out in front of Len, who dropped his book in surprise.

"See! She's cute, isn't she?" Miku pouted as the kitty let out a yawn, baring its pointed teeth with a faint purring sound emerging from its throat.

Len did his best not to snap at his girlfriend, putting on a fake smile as he agreed, "Yes, I can see she's cute, but you ought to be more careful, Miku. What if it scratched you?"

He bent down to pick up his book. Miku just turned the kitty to look her in the face as she cooed, "You wouldn't do that to me, would you, you little cutie?"

The kitty gave another purr, its eyes squinting together as it opened its maw again. Miku set the kitty back down onto the ground again, gently petting its tiny head. It was a small tabby cat with thin black stripes lining its furry tan coat, its round yellowish eyes squinting with content as it rubbed its head against Miku's hand.

"I wonder who abandoned this poor little kitty," Miku sighed, rubbing it affectionately behind the ears. "How can they be so cruel?"

"Maybe they just didn't want the cat anymore," Len suggested, immersing himself back into his book, though he squatted down next to his girlfriend anyways. "Or maybe they just couldn't take care of her."

"Don't you find that so sad?" Miku pouted, turning to face Len. His sapphire eyes were glued to the worn pages of his book, trailing down lines of stiff text until he flipped the page.

"Len!" Miku snapped, her voice harsh. "Are you listening?"

"Yeah," Len mumbled absentmindedly. "I know, it's sad, but you can't help it."

Miku rolled her eyes. Flicking Len on the forehead, she grumbled, "Can't you tell what I'm thinking right now?"

"Yes," Len sighed, snapping his book shut and massaging his forehead. "You're asking if we can keep it, right?"

Miku nodded eagerly, her head bobbling like a bobblehead as her crystal eyes shone with anticipation. Len let out another sigh, scratching his head. He really wasn't in the mood to deal with this right now. He'd just been getting to the good part of the book, and sure, he'd read it like five times, but the plot twist of who the criminal was and tragedy behind why they stole the magic cookie was great to read no matter how many times he read it. (Though he did sometimes wonder just who was weird enough to write a mystery about some magic cookie that apparently was under heavy level protection and could grant the wish of whoever took a bite of it. Weird stuff.)

By the time he was done thinking, to his bewilderment, Miku had pulled out a bottle of milk from nowhere and poured some in her hand, enticing the kitty to come towards her. Just as the kitty began to lick the milk from her hand, its small tongue lapping the milk up quickly, Len suddenly came to his senses and exclaimed, "What are you doing Miku?"

"What? I'm just giving her some milk," she pouted back, her bottom lip pursing forward. "The kitty's probably hungry!"

"I know that, but you can't feed cats milk! They're like allergic to it or something!" Len exclaimed, tugging the kitty away from Miku's hand. Unhappy, the kitty took a swipe at Len, who was unfazed by the tiny scratch mark he received.

"Bad kitty!" Miku scolded, flicking the kitty's forehead. The feline immediately bowed its head down, looking at them with something that could be puppy eyes.

"Aw…. She's so cute!" Miku immediately forgot her anger, bringing the cat back into her arms as she cuddled it. "We have to take her back with us!"

Len rolled his eyes and brought his hardcover book to his head with a thud. He regretted it because by the time he turned back to look at Miku with her newfound kitty, he was being given two sets of puppy eyes, and that was one thing he couldn't resist.

"Okay, fine, fine, we'll take her back, okay? We don't have much else to do anyways," Len sighed, giving in as he stood up, brushing his pants off even though there was no dust on his clothes.

"Yay!" Miku cheered, setting the kitty back into its box and picking the cardboard box up into her arms. She tickled the kitty under the chin and cooed, "Len and I are going to take very good care of you, little kitty."

"Can we hurry up?" Len asked, flipping through his book to find his place again. "The only reason we came out was because you wanted to take a break from writing, remember?"

"Oh yeah…" Miku drawled out, suddenly remembering how she threw down her pen and paper out of frustration, having suffered a terrible writer's block for a terribly long time. She'd wrenched Len off the computer where he was typing his own story of some sort and had forced him to go out with her for a cookie shopping spree.

Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her head. "We could write a story about Cookie here and you and me!"

"Cookie?" Len raised an eyebrow, turning to stare at Miku.

"Yep, cause I'm hungry, and we only found Cookie because we came out to get some cookies!" Miku cheerfully replied as she came to a stop, handing Cookie's box to Len. "Now wait here while I get some real cookies, okay? Since I don't know if the shop lets kitties in."

She gave Len a peck on the cheek before heading off into the café, the bell on the door ringing as she entered. Len stared after her, her twin pigtails bobbing behind her as she rubbed her cold hands together, apparently glad to be out of the winter air. Len glanced down at the kitty who stared back, yellow unblinking eyes meeting sapphire.

"Cookie, huh," Len muttered, reaching a hand into the box to scratch the kitty on the head. The kitty let out a soft purr coming right from its throat, rubbing against Len's finger. He had to smile, glancing back up again to look at Miku, who was now excitedly ordering her beloved cookies with two giant glasses of milk. Another light bulb seemed to go off in her head as she excused herself, pulling out a notebook and hastily writing something down, something that Len could've bet was some random story idea about cats and whatnot. The way she was grinning to herself before hurriedly turning around and paying for her milk and cookies made Len feel happy inside, glad she was no longer stressing out about not having something fun to write about.

"Well," he remarked, glancing back down at Cookie. "Looks like you're going to become quite a star."

When Miku came out of the store with her newly bought goods, the couple headed back home with their newest addition to their unofficial family. Once they set up a makeshift bed for Cookie, Len offered her a bowl of water before deciding to test how smart Cookie was by reading his weird book aloud to her. Miku could only chuckle to herself as she settled down with a cookie dangling from her mouth, ready to let her imagination fly. Her fingertips hovering over the keyboard, she let out a grin and began to type a story about her, Len, a cute little kitty cat, and, the noise in the background being filled with Len's droning voice as he read aloud from his book while munching on the snacks she'd just bought, books, milk and cookies.

After all, who didn't like kitties, books, and cookies with a nice glass of milk?


A/N: Hooray for my complete randomness! XP

So I was chatting with Hana-chan and I was like, "So what kind of one-shot should I write for you?" And so I was given the prompt of writing something about kitties, books, milk and cookies with LenKu. So voila, I tried. XD

But now, to my surprise I'm having fun thinking of all these weird ideas so maybe I'll make this a drabble series thingy, which is why Miku's about to write something with the same prompt I was given. So maybe that'll happen if I'm bored enough. I don't know.

Thanks for reading! I hope it was somewhat enjoyable to read...
