Welp back to this... made a deal with someone that required my attention fully. Side track aside... onto the story.
Chapter 6:
Pyrrha let out a yawn as she heard a knock on the her bedroom door. She began to attempt to leave the comfortable embrace the teal haired woman had wrapped around her midsection. As Pyrrha tried to wrangle free to see what the small girl she let sleep in her spare bed the previous night. As she fought the embrace she normally loved waking up slowly in, Reese fought back by squeezing tighter and burying her face into the brown cotton of the onesie she couldn't believe Reese had convinced her to wear the previous night.
"No... just let them rob the place... I want you to stay cute and cuddly." Pyrrha heard mumbled from behind her causing a small laugh to be ripped from her throat. "While I'd love to... we promised to look after that little girl knocking on our door waiting patiently to come in." Pyrrha spoke giggling as she turned around in the embrace, smiling as she could see a faint blush dusting the teal woman's cheeks.
"Come in Cerezas!" Pyrrha said as the door opened slowly to reveal the small girl holding her stuffed panda tightly to her chest. Pyrrha could just make out over Reese's shoulder, the large dog she was terrified that would come into her room and eat her very being while she slept. "I'm hungry Auntie Pyr Pyr..." The girl spoke as Pyrrha smiled a little.
Walking into the room more to quickly climb on the bed just behind the sleeping the teal haired woman smiling at the black and white clothing she was wearing. As if she was a larger version of the bear in her arms. "Auntie Ree Ree is dressed like a panda." Cerezas said with a near unimaginable type of mirth that Reese had never heard before.
Letting go of her hand as she rolled onto her back to look at the red tipped girl smiling. "That is because pandas are fucking awesome." Reese said as Pyrrha shot her a glare. Turning her head to the side at the new word when she saw the teal haired woman jump a little as if reminding her about her reason. "I'm hungry... can we have ice cream for breakfast? Mommy let's me have ice cream for breakfast."
"I know she doesn't do that... but let's go look for something while Reese goes to take Sprinkles for a morning walk." Pyrrha said as the girl frowned, but the dog who had remained patiently sitting stood up, wagging his tail. Still never crossing the threshold of the room.
'I guess Neo is right... he is very well behaved... but I just know if I let Reese get one it wouldn't be...' Pyrrha thought as she stood up, much to her girlfriend's dismay. As she climbed off the bed, Cerezas jumped down leaving Reese to groan at the lack of Pyrrha. "Come on Reese... looks like Sprinkles wants to go as well. Take your skateboard and have him pull you... or don't... but I'm assuming he is rather strong." Pyrrha began as she held her hand for the little girl to take.
"Sprinkles... go in and help Reese so she can take you for a walk." Pyrrha said as the dog quickly ran into the room as Pyrrha left with the little girl holding her hand. Pyrrha could hear her girlfriend laughing and a slightly loud bark from the dog.
She laughed as the echoing of laughter came from her room as she walked into the kitchen. Quickly swooping the girl up and placing her onto the counter top as she opened the fridge smiling as she could see the girl next to her just swing her legs, awaiting something. "We can have porridge, or fruit, bacon and eggs... pancakes... what do you want?" Pyrrha asked turning towards the girl, smiling at the deep thought she was putting into this. Almost like this was going to be the single most important decision of her life.
"Bacon and chickie chickies." The girl called out with the same mirth that Pyrrha would have no choice but to laugh at as she pulled out a tray of eggs followed by a small plastic packaging holding stripes of meat.
Yawning into her hand as Ruby used her other hand to open the door of her fridge. Her hunger starting to become more of an annoyance than anything else. The simple fact Yang having gotten home late last night and knew the odds of her getting up to make some food for them was slim if at all.
Instead, she decided she might as well make something herself, and she could bring Yang some. It was the least she could do considering that once she removed running into Neo, she actually enjoyed yesterday. Not that she disliked running into Neo... she just found that conversation to be one of the most awkward ones she had ever had. Even if she was to forget how awkward it was explaining to her friends who that man that shot her was.
"Okay... what do we have... orange juice, purple stuff, soda... why do we not have anything besides bacon?" Ruby asked herself for the simple fact she knew she couldn't use the stove. It would be too dangerous. Opening the drawer at the bottom, hoping that there was something she could do.
She heard some soft footsteps causing her to turn her head from the fridge to see her green haired friend holding her shoes walking down from what she assumed was Yang's room. "Em? What are you doing here...? weren't you spending the night with Neo?" Ruby asked, hoping that there wasn't another half a dozen keys she needed to take back, or worse, Yang cheated on Pyrrha.
"Blake may or may not be pissed I've been placing some bets on the new girls with Nep and others... she just lost out big on this one girl named May." Emerald lied as Ruby rolled her eyes. "This is literally the second place she would look. And stop betting on new meat. Thought I taught you better." Ruby stated as she closed the door of the fridge to look at her.
"And ignoring the fact you guys have clearly gotten soft... mind cooking me some bacon? Only thing we have... and for obvious reasons I can't really do it safely. Only need to set myself on fire once to learn that." Ruby joked as the green haired woman frowned. Clearly trying to desperately weigh the pros and cons of doing it.
As time went on, clearly Emerald remaining unsure of what to do. "Em... please... I can't cook, and I'd rather not wake Yang up. You both got in late." Ruby continued as Emerald shook her head a little. "Fine." Emerald spoke as she walked further into the kitchen, dropping the heels she was holding just outside the room. Ruby smiled as she moved a bit away from the stove to let the green haired woman in.
"Thanks Em..."
"Don't mention it Ruby... I could go for a bite to eat as well..." Emerald spoke as she grabbed the plastic from the back of the fridge. "Not for cooking... which I am thankful for. I mean for making sure Neo is happy..."
As Neo knocked on the door of Pyrrha's apartment, just wanting to hold her daughter again. While she enjoyed largely the night she had spent with Emerald, but she just wanted to spend what remained of her Sunday with her daughter, watching some movie that she had already seen five dozen times easily, but she just wanted to spend the time holding her close.
She wouldn't even object to the large dog curling up with them. That was all she needed after Ruby had managed to play with her emotions without even trying last night. She needed to remind herself as of why she hadn't returned to Ruby.
As she waited for someone to come and let her in to hold her little girl, she could see something taking a seat next to her. Looking over she could see her dog sitting there. And a panting teal haired woman bracing herself against the wall. The leash on the dog's collar still connected and on the ground.
Smiling as she bent down and began to scratch the dog's head. "I probably should have told you guys... Sprinkles is a lot stronger than he looks. Pyrrha should have really walked him." Neo said as the Reese moved her purple coloured hood down, as if it was constricting her from her panting.
"He was fine..." Reese started taking a large gulp of air, "Until we saw you." Reese continued as she walked a few steps closer.
Shaking her head, Neo reached up and unclasped the leash from the dog's collar. Turning his head the dog licked Neo's face as he turned back to look at the door. Patiently waiting for the door to open as Neo continued to pet him.
"Okay... Pyrrha may be right... dogs larger than us are not good pets." Reese got out as she began to pant heavier as she walked the remainder few feet towards the ice cream themed girl. As if there was miles between them. "Actually... Sprinkles is proof that they can read people better... he just gets excited easily by me and Cerezas." Neo stated as the door opened to reveal a shocked Pyrrha.
"Why is Sprinkles he-"
"Pyr... help... I'm exhausted... he pulls like a son of a bitch." Reese yelled causing the dog to walk around towards the woman to try and support her for the remaining few inches towards the apartment so she can rest.
Reese draped an arm over the canine, and began to walk with him towards the open door. As they walked into the apartment. Causing Reese to pant more and began to walk towards the open seat at the table. Neo giggled as Reese began to pant even heavier, getting ready to pass out.
Neo looked to the small girl who hadn't turned her head to look at Neo until she heard the giggle. Flying from the chair and running towards the woman who had just walked into the home, she screamed 'Mommy' and jumped into the waiting arms of the woman.
"Come on Cerezas... looks like you still have some breakfast left on your plate." Neo spoke as she let go a little bit and began to walk with the girl towards the table. As Pyrrha came back into the dining room holding a large glass filled with water and placed it onto the table in front of her teal haired girlfriend.
Neo held the chair as Cerezas climbed up onto it, causing her to push the chair closer towards the table. Quickly taking her own seat she smiled at the pieces of bacon that remained on the little girl's plate. Reaching over to the plate to grab a part of that meat and took a bite. "Did you have fun with Pyrrha and Reese?" Neo asked as the girl nodded her head. "Auntie Ree Ree has a sleepy outfit like teddy..." The little girl spoke with a mouthful of the coagulated yellow on the plate. Causing Neo to frown a bit.
"You know better than to talk with your mouthful." Neo stated as the girl quickly swallowed it and frowned. "Sorry Mommy..." the girl said as she turned back to the plate, causing Neo to connect the dots from what the girl said.
Turning towards Reese Neo began, "You have a panda onesie? Are you one of those weird people who dress like animals?" The shade Reese blushed as she quickly finished the glass of water. "No... Pyrrha was mad and that is her idea of a punishment." Reese spoke as Cerezas took a large gulp.
"They had that happy look like Auntie Mel and Auntie Milt have when they hug each other. Then Auntie Ree Ree said a word I don't know what it meant." Cerezas spoke as Neo glared at Reese harsher as she softened her look as she looked towards her daughter. "What does 'fucking' mean Mommy?" The girl asked as Neo shot Reese another harsh glare.
She couldn't believe one of her cardinal rules when it came to Cerezas was broken. "It is a naughty word, and Reese was a naughty woman when she used it." Neo said as the smaller girl nodded in understanding with that.
Letting out a sigh as the girl took another bite of her food, Neo looked towards the other duo and mouthed 'you know that I don't like that', only for her to hold her breath when Cerezas spoke again after gulping the food in her mouth. "Hey Mommy... who is my daddy?"
Author's Note:
Welp... sorry it took me awhile to get this out... but I was busy writing the imagination au chapter to fulfil a part of a deal. But got it out, and I do think Reese and Pyrrha are furries... but onto the guest reviews...
Guest 4: Fine then… we can play a few rounds of Go. And the American in me makes me want to jump to an extreme first… thought that was understood.
Guest #1: I would never kill a character and you can't find evidence to the contrary. besides Wolfhounds are cooler… they are the oldest breed and the largest. plus they actually were breed to hunt fucking wolf packs.
Guest #2: Don't tell me what to do… I don't take too well to that.
