Close Call
Keyro jumped out of the bed he shared with Merr and Rabid. The demon and Rottweiler were still dead asleep, cuddled up together. Keyro had been cuddled up with them when they first laid down the night before, or maybe it was earlier this morning, but he had gotten up every hour or so and woken up Rabid every time. Eventually he growled at Keyro and said that if he kept it up, Keyro would have to sleep on the floor. Since Keyro didn’t want to sleep on the floor, he just put about as much space as he could away from Rabid’s back so that he wasn’t snapped at again. Mushroom was still asleep in the vase that Rabid tipped over for him. It was an orange vase so Rabid figured it would remind the crab of the pumpkin he slept in. Keyro bounced over to the glass door leading to the balcony and threw it open. As he stepped out onto the balcony, a cold breeze blew by him into the room and Merr growled, jumping up from the cold. Rabid gathered all the blankets and made a nest of them before going back to sleep. The demon huffed and walked out to the balcony with Keyro.
“Good morning Merr!” Keyro said with a smile at the demon, receiving a dirty look in return. “Be lucky you didn’t wake up Rabid with the wind. You know how he is in the morning.” “Isn’t that why we have coffee in the room?” “Me and Rabid finished it last night…around 11:30 or so.” “Oh…well, we can go down and get more can’t we?” “I guess…We should before he wakes up.” Merr said with a sigh and turned towards the door and motioned for Keyro to get closer to the door. The demon put his paw on the handle and waited for the wind to die down so they wouldn’t wake up Rabid with wind. When the wind stopped, Merr quickly opened the door and ran in and tried to stop when he realized Mushroom was on the floor but Keyro didn’t and ran into Merr who stepped forward onto Mushroom and slipped and fell backwards on Keyro. Keyro let out a surprised growl and smoke came out of his nose. Merr watched Mushroom fly to the ceiling and bounce off the ceiling with a bang and fly towards the bed. Keyro covered his mouth and waited for the crab to hit Rabid. Merr scrambled up and pulled Keyro towards the door and they paused in the door way to look back at the sleeping Rabid. Instead of hitting the dog straight on, Mushroom managed to land on the pillow not even an inch away from Rabid’s muzzle. Keyro gulped and Merr opened the door, tugging Keyro out and gently shutting it behind him. “So close.” Merr muttered and walked towards the elevator door that just dinged open. |
Seven Cups of Coffee
Bree sighed, tapping his foot as he held his container of Tropicana Orange Juice and waited for the elevator to stop on his floor. When he left, no one was up in his room or Rabid’s room as far as he could tell. The door dinged as the elevator stopped on his floor and when the doors slid open, Bree turned to walk out and saw Merr and Keyro standing in front of the elevator looking halfway between scared out of their minds andworried. Bree shook his head and sighed with a smile.
“Why is it not a surprise that the two of you are standing in front of an elevator only in boxers?” Bree said with a smile at Merr. Keyro looked down and then at Merr. “Well…uh we almost woke up Rabid…and then we left before anything else could happen…” Merr said and Bree thought a moment. “Did you grab a room key?” “Oops…” Keyro muttered and Merr looked at him. “Usually you are obsessed with keys.” “Well, that key looks like a card.” “Wow…and what are you doing now?” Bree asked before the demon and the dragon could get into an argument. “Getting coffee for Rabid for when he wakes up.” Keyro said and Merr nodded. “Rabid’s not a morning person…” “Of course not…” Bree muttered and looked down the hall to his room. “I better go, before anyone wakes up in my room and you better go get Rabid his coffee before he wakes up.” He said and Merr hugged him before walking into the elevator to get coffee. Keyro followed and both watched as Bree walked to his room and the door slid closed. Keyro pressed the button for the bottom floor and they waited for it to hit the bottom floor. As it hit the lobby, Keyro ran to the desk and started talking really fast and started speaking Polish. Merr walked over and pushed Keyro to the side and covered his mouth. “We would like some more coffee please, enough to make about, oh I don’t know, about five cups maybe?” Merr asked with a smile. “Five cups? Are you sure?” the calico receptionist asked, making sure she heard right. “Yes, five. We are currently rooming with a Rottweiler who isn’t a morning person and practically lives on his coffee.” Merr said and Keyro tried to say something past Merr’s paw but it only came out a mumbled mess. “Shut it dragon!” Merr muttered and Keyro pouted and whined under Merr’s paw. The calico receptionist grabbed a handful of coffee stuffs and handed them to Merr who nodded at her then guided Keyro back to the elevator to go back to the room. As they got into the elevator, Merr started counting the packets of coffee stuff. "Does Rabid need seven cups of coffee?" Keyro asked, biting his lip. |
Green Blue and Pink BromanceKeyro looked over at Merr who had all the coffee in his hands and smiled a bit. The demon was waiting for the elevator to stop on the fourth floor so they could get back to the room with the coffee, hoping Rabid wouldn’t be awake yet.
“Merr, do you ever think Rabid drinks too much coffee?” Keyro asked and Merr turned to him and smiled. “Not really. He isn’t a morning person and he has had coffee since he was a little pup.” “So what would happen if we took away his coffee?” Merr paused a moment to think about how to answer the dragon’s question. “Very bad stuff. Rabid doesn’t cope well without coffee and would be in a very foul, antisocial mood all the time.” He finally answered as the elevator dinged on the fourth floor. Keyro stepped out into the hall first and ran straight into Benjamine who was standing beside Scraps. “Hey guys!” Ben shouted excitedly making Merr wince slightly and look down the hall to see if Ben’s loud shout had possibly woken Rabid. “Ben, please be a bit quieter.” Keyro muttered, rubbing one of his ears slightly. “Oh, sorry, he’s just excited for the cruise.” Scraps said with a smile up at Merr. Merr nodded at the canine. “We all are but we don’t want or need to wake up the whole hotel.” Merr said, glancing down to room 407 again before turning back to Ben. “I’ve been waiting for you Merr.” Scraps said with a wink and Merr looked down at the dog and backed up a bit. “Scraps! That’s mine.” Bree shouted as he opened the door to his room and started walking towards Keyro, Merr, Benjamine, and Scraps. “I know Bree…” Scraps said, pouting slightly. “Why do you get mad at Scraps but not Rabid?” Keyro asked. “Because, Rabid and Merr were bros before I came along.” Bree said with a smile. “BROOOMAAANCE~!” Merr sang, making the other four laugh. A door slammed down the hall and Evra stuck her head out into the hall and glared at the group in the hall. “Some people like sleeping.” She huffed angrily and rolled her eyes before ducking back into her room with Aryankha and Blurred. “Sorry, see you Bree, bye Ben, stop being a creeper Scraps.” Keyro said with a slight smile. Merr hugged Bree and said bye to Ben, glanced at Scraps and followed Keyro to their room. “Wait, the door is locked…” Merr growled, pushing down the handle with one of his tails. “I have twenty seven keys, one will unlock this door!” Keyro said, pulling out his keyring and running a claw around the keys. “Okay…” Merr asked as Keyro held up a completely flat key that had no ridges on it. He slid it into the slot and moved it around a few times before pulling it out. Merr lifted an eyebrow and watched Keyro take out some lavender hand sanitizer and gently apply it to the key before inserting it into the slot again. He moved it around before the light on the side flashed green and Merr tested the handle and pushed the now unlocked door open. “You know your keys.” Merr said and walked over to the counter to set down the coffee. Keyro smiled and walked over to the mini-fridge to get a Brisk. Merr started the coffee brewer for Rabid as he heard rustling around on the bed. Merr walked into the bedroom area and watched as Rabid slowly started to get up. Keyro grabbed Rabid’s coffee creamer and all the sugar packets Rabid stole from various coffee shops. As he made his way back towards the brewer, Mushroom jumped down from the bed and right under Keyro’s feet. The dragon slipped on him and made him shoot at the dresser then at the bed. A sharp yelp filled the room and Merr gritted his teeth. Keyro looked up over the bed and smiled at Rabid who had propped himself on his elbow and was staring down at Mushroom. “Mushroom, it’s not time for you yet.” He half muttered, half growled at the crab. “Scuttle.” “We’ve got some coffee brewing for you.” Merr said, smiling at Rabid and licked the Rottweiler’s cheek with a forked tongue. Rabid stared at the demon for a moment before kicking off the covers and rolling off the bed. As he started walking towards the brewer but someone started knocking on the door. Rabid walked over to the door and threw it open. “Sorry to bother you but-“ Shadow stopped talking when he saw Rabid staring at him. The Rottie raised a brown eye spot at Shadow and frowned. Merr and Keyro were in the background gesturing for Shadow to be careful or be quiet. “I was wondering when we were leaving for the ship.” Shadow said slowly and started backing away from the door. Rabid’s muzzle was starting to drip foam and that couldn’t really be good. “Dunno, guess ‘bout sevenish.” Rabid answered before slamming the door in Shadow’s face before walking over to the coffee brewer to get his coffee so Merr could make his tea. As Rabid carefully mixed in his creamer and sugar, Merr started brewing his tea and Keyro sat on the bed watching the two make their morning drinks in their boxers. Rabid had on his green plaid boxers, Merr had on his bright pink boxers, and Kyro had on his dark blue boxers. All of them liked walking around in as little clothes as possible and they usually got away with it. Rabid sat on the countertop and started to carefully sip his coffee and Merr leaned against the counter beside Rabid and gestured for Keyro to lean against the wall across from them. Keyro leaned against the wall with a smile and Rabid shook his head. “You are too happy this morning.” “No, I just find it funny that we all drink something different to truly wake up in the morning.” Keyro pointed out and took another sip of Brisk. “Yes, Rabid with his coffee, me with my tea, and you with your Brisk.” Merr said and held up his cup. The other two followed suit and the trio had a toast. “To the cruise!” “It’ll be good!” “More than good, it’ll be amazing!” Merr said and laughed before taking a sip of his tea. Rabid threw back a gulp of coffee and lurched forward. “HOT!” He yelped and Merr laughed and went to clean some rabies foam off of Rabid’s cheek but Keyro put a hand up to stop him and took out a bottle of lavender hand sanitizer and gently wiped some on Rabid’s face and Merr’s muzzle. “Now you’re sanitary.” He said and got a weird look from Merr and Rabid before Merr licked up the foam. “Tastes like lavender. I like the regular foam taste better.” Merr commented and made a face. |
