Following his partner's tall frame, Shishido breathes in allows a smile. He likes pet shops.
Not that he's got any business here or anything, but Choutarou's mother had phoned after practice to tell him he needed to pick up cat food for Fortunata. And yeah well, he'd tagged along. Not that smart a move, considering how much course load hyotei's third year high school division heaves onto their shoulders. But it meant that he and Choutarou git to hang out a little longer, so. Yeah.
It's inside warm, too. Choutarou pulls off his knit cap (it has a pinkish pom-pom at the top -Shishido knows it to be the lamest hat in existence, but Choutarou still wears the hell out of it because he knows Shishido kinda likes it, pink pom-pom aside). He's got horrible hat hair, all static, loopy strands that poof up. It's terribly… well. You know. Cute.
Unable to resist, Shishido ruffles his hand through it when Choutarou pauses at the dry food section. It gets a warm smile first, then a frown when he realizes Shishido still had his mittens on, making it even more poofy and floaty than before.
"Hey," he protests and reaches to try and steal Shishido's cap.
He evades and grins over his shoulder at Choutarou's futile attempts to flatten it again.
It's stupid of him to go and look, but somehow he can never stop himself from doing so. Just… the sight of all those squirmy, stubby puppy bodies and pink lolling tongues never fails to make him feel happy. And sad. Not that he is looking to replace Mochi -never!- but he just wants to, you know, imagine? Mochi can never replaced, he'll love her, always, years from now. A different dog would not mean he'd feel any less pain when he thinks of her, it'd be separate, loved for being itself -like Mochi was. His eyes burn (just a little!) when he remembers how she'd rush up to him when he came home, like it'd been ages they were apart. Now the genkan is empty.
Shishido swallows, angry with himself for a moment.
When he sticks his hand inside the pen all the puppies rush up to him, tripping and stumbling over one another in their haste to get to him, butts waving left and right as they wag, all pink mouths and pert ears. They make one huge puppy-pile against the side, yipping and making those high-pitched murmury noises so that when he crouches, at least five of them are hanging off the side to lick at his face.
"Hey guys," he whispers. "How're you all doing today, eh?"
Snuffly noses and wet, rough tongues inspect his face. He stops talking, because they'll keep on slobbering, if need be into his open mouth.
He's not there for that long -crouching with both arms in the pen to touch as many as he can and the rest attempting to scale the side- but long enough his legs tingle when he stands up again as Choutarou walks up to him, a plastic bag hanging off his wrist.
There's an odd look on his face, a little intense as he looks into Shishido's face. He can't quite make it out.
Dragging his sleeve across his face, he chuckles ruefully and goes, "Hey, yeah…". Also hopes Choutarou won't be too grossed out to kiss him, later.
For a moment Choutarou odd, yet intense look becomes a bit distant, as he reaches his own free hand into the pen -its promptly licked by at least four puppies. A little smile chases along his lips.
"Ne, Shishido-san," he says, softly almost. "You really like dogs, don't you."
It's not a question. Shishido blinks and goes "Uuuh…".
"I rather like cats better, myself," he continues.
Shishido hasn't got any fucking clue what he's trying to say, so he keeps his gob shut to see where this'll go.
"But…" He crouches by the pen, lets his arm dangle. Under his palm one puppy squirms onto its back, exposing its (or his, obviously a boy, that one) belly for petting. Shishido wonders how much on the lameness scale being jealous of a puppy is.
There's no follow up to that, not immediately. Shishido is unsure whether he's expected to make any sort of comment on it, so he keeps silent.

"But," he says again, "You know… maybe we could get a puppy. Later." His voice is very, very careful, like he fears Shishido's reaction.
Confused, Shishido stops, frowning.
Choutarou takes one more step, and then turns towards him. The pink pom-pom is sorta flopped forward. He looks like a giant (literally) dork, but still the dork he really hopes will want to kiss -doggy-drool notwithstanding.
"Later?" he manages at last, when Choutarou just stands there all tentative and blushing and being an idiot. Like, next week?
"When…" dark eyes are downcast as he picks invisible lint off his wool coat. "When… if, we, later, maybe, ah-" muttermumble "-together."
Huh?
When-later-together.
Oh.
Ooooh.
Something inside of him goes warm and taut. "I-"
"I wouldn't mind getting a puppy, you know. They start out small. And I liked the ones back at the shop- you… you…"
Shishido decides it is time to shut his idiot boyfriend up before he ends up saying anything lame.
Choutarou doesn't mind the puppy-drool.
