Another prompt from tumblr, this one was quite cute!
Blaze
"No."
John glared at the other, cuddling the squirming mass in his arms closer to his chest.
"Why not? I even named him! His name is Blaze like the last name of Nic Cage's character in Ghost Rider!"
Bro just continues to give him a stern look which John refuses to back down from. Seeing that neither of them are going to give in, John jerks his head to the side and points his chin to the air in an attempt to be as bratty as possible.
"Well, Blaze needs to stay here for the night anyway since the shelter is closed, not that he's going there mind you!, and you have to watch him while I'm at work." John didn't leave much room for discussion.
Bro demeanor changed from his stone wall stubbornness to suddenly pouting and draping himself over John's back and twining his arms around the smaller male's waist and pulling his back against his chest.
"John, you gotta tell those shit head managers not to have you closing so much anymore. You should be back home here with me in bed by the time you close up shop."
John sighed, slightly agitated.
"Yeah, I know it sucks balls but I need to get as much hours as possible! More hours, more money!"
Frowning against John's neck, Bro opened his mouth to speak again before the smaller male suddenly ripped himself from the others hold.
"Holy shit; is that the time? Fuck, I'm gonna be late!"
John was suddenly a twister of action; grabbing his work clothes, getting into them (and giving Bro a show), jamming his phone into his pant's pocket and then kissing the taller male's cheek before pushing something into his hands.
Looking down, Bro scowled as he saw that it was in fact the furry bastard that John had brought home.
"John, I am not watching over this road kill."
"Dirk!" John screeched at the other, making Bro's ears pulse in slight pain. "Don't call Blaze Egbert road kill! You'll hurt his feelings!"
Bro just raised an eyebrow at the other.
"You gave him your last name?"
John's ears turned red and he just sputtered something about it not being the point before heading out the door.
"You better take care of him! I'll text you later to see how he's doing!"
And with that Bro is left alone with a kitten in his hands. Looking down at the small thing, it looks at him with bright golden eyes before giving a small meow as if saying 'hello'. Snorting a bit to himself, he sets the cat down gently, (only because he knows if it gets hurt that John will be mad! That is the only reason!) before making his way over to the couch and throwing himself down onto it and turning on the TV.
Time went by and while he didn't forget about the kitten, he didn't put much thought into it. Suddenly half way through Wheel Of Fortune, Bro felt a tugging at his shoes, or more accurately, his shoe laces.
The small black kitten was trying to pull his shoelaces untied as it gnawed on them rather cutely. Bro felt a grin pull at his face before reaching down and gently stroking the kitten from it's head to tail. The kitten cried happily before attacking his hand, wanting even more attention. Pulling Blaze into his lap, Bro played with him a bit more, feeling all his stubbornness from before beginning to slip away.
"Hmm, I think Blaze Strider is a better name for you then Egbert." Bro said before he fell into a doze with Blaze sleeping in his lap.
Later when he awoke to John's smirking face, he knew that John was never going to let him get rid of the damn cat now.
