Lewis reached for Kurumi's hand again and started playing with her fingers absently, his eyes following the movement. Did he not want a crup? "No, I just...do we have enough room?" No, that didn't really answer Kurumi's question but that was the most prominent thought on his mind right now. They already had TWO cats and their apartment wasn't that big to begin with. And honestly, it wasn't like their family size would be shrinking any time soon.
Vanilla still had a couple of years. Hopefully. No, she absolutely did. He shouldn't even be THINKING about that.
His eyes flicked back over to the crups when Kurumi pointed out one of them. A particularly yappy one. Yes, of course they were cute. Lewis even took another step closer to get a closer look. "...I'm pretty sure they're happy to see you." Because honestly, who wouldn't be. Not that that settled their discussion on getting a crup of course. Nonetheless, Lewis lifted his gaze again to smile at Kurumi.
It was hard to keep pouting when he played with her fingers like that, so it was only a matter of moments before her lips softened and even curled up into a smile as she took a step towards him again. "
No, you're probably right," she sighed. She DID still miss having a dog though.
Walnut probably wouldn't appreciate another creature entering the home anyway. The transition with Vanilla had been hard enough on the feline. Now the two got along, more like tolerated one another most of the time, so adding a crup to the mix in such a confined space. Sigh. Yes, Lewis was right. He was usually right.
Her cheeks flushed as she held the crup even closer to Lewis' face, allowing it to lick his nose. "
He likes you," she laughed softly, letting the little guy get a few more good licks and attempted licks in before putting him back down. Her hand went back to Lewis', lacing their fingers together and leaning her head against his shoulder while she watched the crups play with one another. "
There is...a lot of other things we should be focusing on now instead of a new addition," she sighed. Okay, no crup today. Maybe once Lewis finished his last year of study and after she finished her last year of work study. Which...brought up something that they still hadn't decided on. "
We still haven't picked a date," she said, more thinking out loud than it being an actual statement.
