Title: Promises to keep
Fandom: Penguins of Madagascar
Pairing(s): Rico/Kowalski
Warning: Homosexuality, furries
Summary: Rico has an odd almost prophetic dream, and the whole day he mopes and mulls it over, catching the eye of Kowalski.
A/N: This is a dream sequence
Kowalski hated to do it, but Private and Skipper were beginning to stir in their beds—their noisy antics were going to pull their companions from slumber. After a quick nuzzle, he whispered, "Rico, perhaps it would be in both of our best interests if you returned to your bunk for the rest of the night?" The tall penguin chuckled at the returned grunt of dissatisfaction, the weapons expert burying his head further into his teammate's feathers. "Rico…" he murmured, patting the hunched penguin's head lightly. "We can sleep together if it storms again…I promise."
To emphasize Kowalski's statement, or just on coincidence, a slow clap of thunder popped through their ears. Rico shivered and pulled back, straining his brows thoughtfully, his face clearly marked with misgiving, disfigured beak turned down. Kowalski went to speak, feeling guilty, but Rico just shook his head, and flipped into his bed, twisting uncomfortably, "Heeehhh…" he huffed. Kowalski chuckled, smoothing the feathers were Rico had nestled.
"Pleasant dreams to you, as well, Rico."
Said penguin huffed restlessly, clearly agitated, yet reluctantly crooned, his own sort of 'good night,' one that, somehow made Kowalski's heart flutter in his chest.
