Evil sat in his backyard staring up at the stars. He leaned against the old oak tree, his gaze never leaving the sky.
"Why does he have to be so strange?" Evil wondered to himself as he looked down at the grass.
Flippy had gone to bed early again leaving Evil with nothing to do. He hated it when Flippy went to bed early, but the male was always tired at night. Flippy never even stayed up later than 9 unlike Evil who would stay awake till 5 in the morning at times.
It was just one of those things Evil would have to get used to.
Evil shivered from the cold breeze. Tonight was supposed to be chilly, but it wouldn't make Evil run inside. He felt peaceful looking at the stars. The way they sparkled seemed to put Evil in a trance and he couldn't take his eyes off of them.
Evil heard the screen door creak as it opened and looked over his shoulder curiously.
Flippy shut the door gently as Evil blinked, confused.
"Flippy, what are you doing up this late?" Evil was happy to see Flippy, but was more surprised to see him up than anything.
Flippy walked over and sat next to Evil, "I couldn't sleep. What are you doing out here?"
"Just looking at the stars," Evil smiled at Flippy, "It's better than sitting on the couch missing you."
Flippy gave Evil a confused look, "Missing me...I'm up stairs sleeping not going away somewhere."
"Yeah, but I can still miss you," Evil pulled Flippy close and tickled his side getting a giggle, "And that cute laugh of yours."
Flippy leaned against Evil and smiled up at him playfully. Evil chuckled and kissed Flippy on the nose getting another giggle from him.
Evil loved hearing his cute laugh, it could always make him smile no matter how sad he was.
Flippy smiled and cuddled against Evil as Evil held him tightly in his arms. Evil rested his head on Flippy's lovingly, leaning back against the tree.
The two stared up at the stars for the rest of the night.
