Spooked
Felix would deny it until he was blue in the face: Calhoun pushing his cap down over his face the first time had not spooked him. Whenever anyone would ask if he had been scared, he would rebuttal with a firm and simple, "no." He had a reputation to keep because Felix (the same guy who helped fight off Cybugs alongside his old friend, Ralph) did not for lack of better terms, spook.
The first time she actually had pushed his cap down, he had been cooking dinner. He was amidst stirring some pasta when he felt the brisk force of something or someone shoving the brim of his cap down and over his face (What he doesn't tell anyone is that it really had caught him off guard and he tensed up like a fainting goat).
She had laughed of course, bellowing out a cute, high pitched chortle. When she asked if she had scared him, he furrowed his brows and shook his head, stating that something had crawled over his foot at the exact same time as her pushing down the brim. He proceeded to ask what had prompted her strange behavior and he was met with a shrug and the words, "I don't know."
He has no idea where the strange habit arose from even to this day but he finds a somewhat endearing quality about the gesture and whenever she does surprise him in said manner, he can't stop the small smile from crossing his face or looking up her with a mischievous glint in his eye. Even still, he insists the action had not made him jump, and if someone catches him in his little white lie, he smirks slyly and says, "Think what you will, brother."
This is short. But I have read other stories where the whole "Calhoun pushing down Felix's cap" idea has been used and thought the concept was cute. Hope you all enjoyed this and the next one will be longer :)
