Prompt 2
One hired the other to sit for a pet
Bill looked over the instructions he had typed up one more time, making sure there was no way they could be misunderstood. Bill Cipher didn't care about very much, but he cared a great bit for his small collection of Leopard Geckos. He adored the tiny reptiles and took great care of them. So when he had to go out of town for a few days for business, he had to find the perfect person to take care of his babies. He had scoured the internet and called the exotic animal vet, seeking someone who he could trust to come to his apartment a couple times a day to check the water, food, heat, and humidity for all seven reptiles. Finally one of the vets had directed him to a young college student, a Dipper Pines, who was well trusted as a good pet sitter by many people in town. Bill had called Pines as soon as he could, and the two had come to an agreement. The doorbell going off alerted the man to his guest's arrival.
Bill opened the door to see a tall, lean young man with brown hair standing on his doorstep. He wore a simple pair of jeans, black t-shirt, and a worn blue trucker hat with a faded pine tree on it. Bill grinned and ushered him inside.
"You must be Dipper Pines." he almost sang.
"Yes, sir, I'm here to take care of some Leopard Geckos?" Dipper asked, looking around the apartment. Bill had style, he would give him that; though the obsession with gold and triangles was a little odd.
"Yes, that's right! I have seven geckos, and I need you to look after them for three days. I've printed off specific instructions for each of them and placed them next to their individual tanks. Food is in the fridge. Here is a key to get in." Bill placed a small gold key into Dipper's hand.
"Thanks. I promise, I'll take good care of them for you, Mr. Cipher." Dipper put the key in his pocket.
"You better, kid. These little guys are pretty damn special to me. I'll be keeping in touch with you just in case. Call me if you have any problems." Bill gave the young man his cell number and looked him over again. The young man wasn't bad on the eyes, and seemed pretty nice thus far. He grinned.
"You know what kid, I'll make you a deal!"
Dipper blinked at him and tilted his head a little.
"What kind of deal?"
"Oh, a fun one! If you do a good job with this, I'll let you keep that phone number and use it for more entertaining purposes. Like calling to set up a date!" Bill winked and laughed at the startled look that crossed Dipper's face.
"Alright kid, see you in three days! Bye!"
Bill was out the door before Dipper could say anything else, leaving the confused and flustered young man blushing in his living room.
When I said these were short I meant they would be REALLY short!
