He tried not to smile as he walked in the apartment and saw Zooey curled up on the couch with her new, as of yet unnamed kitten.
She said that she wanted to get to know it before naming it, so she’d be sure she picked the right one. Jared had pointed out that people were named right away, and were stuck with theirs even if they didn’t fit, but Zooey had disagreed with him as soon as he said it.
“Find a name yet?” Jared asked as he kissed her cheek, plopping down next to her.
Zooey shook her head, bursting into giggles as the cat licked her chin with it’s sandpaper tongue. “Nope, it’s kinda frustrating, actually. I mean, she’s so cute!”
“So call her Cutie.”
Zooey looked at him like he has just told her the cat had three heads. “How are you an actor when you have no imagination?”
“It’s because I’m pretty,” he teased, nuzzling her neck.
“Mmm… I knew that.”
“Did not.”
“Did so, it’s completely obvious.” She pouted, holding out the kitty at arms length. “Unlike your name, you adorable fluffy fur ball, you.”
“You do realize she has to stay at your place, right?”
She turned her pouty gaze on him. “I thought you liked her.”
“I do!” he protested quickly. “But Harley and Sadie would make a chew toy out of her.”
“Because they’re evil,” Zooey said in a baby voice to her new best friend.
“What!? Harley and Sadie are total sweethearts. I thought you loved them.”
“I do! I just don’t want them messing with my baby,” Zooey replied, nuzzling her.
“Your baby,” Jared repeated.
“Uh huh. Besides, everyone knows kitties are better than smelly old dogs, anyway.”
“They do!?”
“Yup!” Zooey chirped. “Everybody knows that.”
"I don't."
She patted his head. "Jared, there's a lot of stuff you don't know," she said with a smirk.
“Oh that is- Dogs rule and you know it!”
“Cats rule and dogs drool…literally!”
“You’re gonna take that back, you know.”
She grinned. “Oh I am, huh? Why’s that?”
“Because if you don’t I’m gonna use the patented Sammy Winchester puppy face of doom on you?”
Zooey gasped, bringing her hands up to her face in mock horror. “Oh no! Anything but that!”
“Yes!” Jared said, letting out an evil laugh that sounded a hell of a lot like a girly giggle. “Fear the puppy eyes!”
“And the bitch face,” Zooey added, trying not to melt.
“I do not make a bitch face!”
“You so do!”
“You’ve been hanging around Jensen too long,” Jared grumbled. “And why haven’t you taken it back yet?” he whined.
“Because my kitty rocks and you know it.”
“My girls rock and you know it.”
“God I love how you call them your girls.” She pouted again, sliding her arms around his neck. “Wait, I’m not your girl?”
“You’re the girl,” he said firmly.
“So you’ll agree with me on the kitty thing?” she said hopefully.
“Not a chance in hell.”
“Jared!”
“Zooey!”
“Jared!”
“Jared!”
“Zooey-” she scowled. “Hey, that was a dirty trick, Padalecki!”
Jared giggled, pressing a kiss to her hair. “Okay, okay, I call a truce in The Great Puppy and Kitty War, at least until we find her a name.”
“Really? Why?”
“Because you’re so damn cute,” he answered, tugging her in for a kiss.
Zooey grinned. “Sounds like a good enough reason to me.”
