Today was like any other. I stood at the counter, goldfish looking at me with jealousy, as Riley tried to flirt with me.
“Listen, we aren't even in the same classes, I don't want to date. Just take your tea to-go, and leave me alone, ok? If you’re lucky, you won't be kicked out.” Riley looked kinda pissed, but did as instructed, quickly leaving. Everyone in the shop had already gotten their tea and paid, so while waiting for something to do, I went and sat with my goldfish.
“Goldfish, why do you seem so upset? Did Riley upset you that much?'' Tommy looked very different from me right now. He was tense, they were mad, they had this protective feeling around them. Tommy nodded their head, showing, yes, someone flirting with me, made him upset.
“Well, my goldfish, I can promise, it's not going to go anywhere.'' I leaned my head on my hand. Affection in my eyes. Tommy picked up army words. “Promise…?'' Tommy was worried about something, and it made him seem even cuter. They stuck out their pinky.
“God you’re so childish….” I let out a sign, looking at him with love. “I…promise.'' I locked our fingers together.
He jumped out of his seat, quickly running to where I was sitting on the side of the table and brought me into a bone crushing hug. I laughed at this while he picked me up. I wrapped my hands around their neck, and put my head next to their collar bones. They were giggling like a little kid, shaking me side to side. I took this chance while they were bothered, I bit down on their neck.
“OW, OW FUCK, WHAT THE FOCK, FUCK, YOU PRICK, YOU PRICK, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU, YOU ARENT MY TEACUP ANYMORE, FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU!!” Tommy dropped me on the ground, rubbing his neck, and jumping around, yelling at me for biting him. I couldn't help but start wheezing at this. It was the funniest thing in the world, everyone in the shop was looking at us. We didn't care though, most of them were regulars so they say stuff like this happens often. I looked back at Tommy, still on the floor, he was standing there looking at the bite on his phone.
“Hey goldfish, can you help me up, I need to get back to work.” Tommy looked down at me , crossing his arms.
“One, no. you bite me. Two no, you’re staying at this table with me.” I looked at him and laughed as I got up off the ground.
“I would love to, but sadly, I have the closing shift today, and I would get fired.” I looked at him with a sad smile. He looked at me, a fire burning in his eyes, a smile as bright as the sun. I was sure just looking at them I would go blind.
“Weeelll, guess I'm staying here till your shift is over!!” I sighed and looked over to the smiling boy.
“You’re going to be the death of me.” I smiled as I walked over to the counter, him in tow behind me.
The day went by fast, I mean, when you have a ball of sunshine following you around everywhere you got, it's kinda hard for the day not to fly by. Next thing I knew, it was 9pm, and I was closing up the shop. Tommy practically fell asleep on my shoulder. I sighed, looking up at him.
“It's time to get you home, goldfish.” He just started to mumble random words, tired out of his mind. I sighed once again knowing he couldn't walk home, not like this, and not in the dark. He clung to me, like I was his life line. With a strong breath out, i picked up the boy bridle style. He may have been tall but he was easy to carry. He wrapped his hand around my neck and snuggled into my shirt.
“You're strong y/n….” I looked down at him. A small smile on my face, god, this boy is so fucing cute. He's going to get defensive tomorrow about this. “I know iam goldfish, but I need you to tell me where to go, I’m taking you home.” He groaned.
“Only if you stay….” He was so tired, he wasn't going to remember any of this….kinda sweet
“Fine, but you can't get mad at me tomorrow morning.”
The tired boy stuck his pinky out at me. “Goldfish, I'm holding you, I can't.” I laughed a little at them as they wrapped their arms around me, as I stood there, waiting for him to tell me the way to his house. “Goldfish, how do I get to your house?” he whined a little at me before they told me the way.
The walk home was filled with tired mumbling, and confessions we wouldn't talk about tomorrow. “You know how cute you are?” I didn't look down at him, I just continued to walk. But I felt his head lift to look at me.
“You think I'm cute…?” I looked down at them. their faces were tinted in pink. Blue eye slightly closed, with a face full of question, looking up at me. “Yeah, yeah I do. Youre fucking adorable.” I looked back at the road, continuing to walk to his house. I felt his face dig into my shirt again, I also could feel his smile through my shirt. I swear, they cant get any cuter.
I stopped in front of the address Tommy told me, the blond asleep in my arms. I moved him so he was on my hip, latching onto me form the side. I tried not to wake him up, and I did a job well done, he was still asleep on my arm. I brought my free hand up and rang the doorbell. While I waited for someone to show up, I played a bit with tommys hair. A woman opened the door, she didn't seem very old, and had blond hair, the same color as goldfish’s. Definitely his mom.
“Is this your son ma'am?” I asked with a slight chuckle in my voice. The woman looked over at the sleeping Tommy in my arms. A look of disappointment passed over her eyes for a moment. She sighed and nodded her head.
“I'm sorry about him, are you alright? Want some coffee, maybe tea?” I nodded my head as she moved out of the way of the door.
“I’ll have some tea, is it alright if I bring him to bed first?” Tommy’s mom(?), nodded her head and told me the way to their room. Their room was kinda plain, a bit messy, but I went to drop them off in their bed, but they wouldn't let go, so I lightly shook them awake.
“Goldfish. Goldfish. You got to let me go, your mom wants to talk to me.” his grip on me tightened.
“No, you'll just leave” I laughed at him just a bit. “If I promise to come back, will you let me go?” he nodded his head, tired.
“Ok, ok, I promise. I’ll come back.” he smiled a little, his grip loosened on me, he stood on the ground, letting go of me and stumbling over to his bed. Once he layed, I covered him up with the blankets, and walked out of his room, quietly shutting his door, as to not wake them.
