This has been going on the entire morning ever since Keith brought back the little stray kitten and two puppies. He found them outside of campus when he came back from his morning run. The three tiny animals were cold, hungry and alone. He just had to take them back to his room. Unfortunately, his roommate Lance was being annoying and trying to hold the baby animals.

“Whatever,” Lance mutters. “How are you even going to take care of them? You know nothing about how to take of animals.”

He was right about that. He didn’t know how to take care of these three littles helpless babies wriggling around in his lap.

“Wait a tick! I know what you should do!” Lance exclaimed loudly. “Why don’t you ask for help from that guy you like? You know, that junior guy.”

“His name is Shiro and I don’t think that he would want me to bother him,” Keith said.

“Aha! So you do have a crush on him!”

“What?! No, I mean… Get out!”

“Sure sure, like nobody has noticed you staring and drooling at the guy during-”

WHAMP!

The pillow came into contact with Lance’s face. Both their faces were red; Lance from getting pissed off for having a pillow thrown in his face and Keith from being embarrassed so much. His face is about as red as the fur of the little kitten. He already named the kitten Red.

He started to like the little kitten. She tried to swat at Lance and purred when he scratched her head himself.

He hated to admit it, but Lance was right. Shiro did probably know what to do with the strays. So here he was, standing in front of Shiro’s room. With a box that contained Red and the two puppies.

“Here goes nothing,” he whispered to himself.

He knocked on the door and waited for an answer. From inside 'hold on, just a minute’ was shouted. A couple seconds later the door was opened and Shiro was standing in the doorway. With no shirt. In just a towel. With wet hair.

“Oh hey there, Keith. Something I can help you with?” Shiro asked with his usual pleasant and nice voice.

“Uhm, yeah,” Keith managed, “I found something this morning and I was wondering if you could help me take care of it.”

He opend the lid of the box slightly to reveal Red and her little companions. The puppies wagged their tails and Red tried to swat at the finger Shiro tried to touch her with.

“Oeh, temperamental that one,” he laughed, “You said you found them? So they’re strays?”

Keith nodded.

“Okay then. Well come in, I’ll throw on some pants and shirt and we’ll start to take care of these little buddies.”

Keith nodded again. He was pretty sure his head was gonna explode. This guy… was too precious for this world.

Bonus:

“Well Lance, care to explain why you haven’t handed in your paper yet?” professor Iverson said.

“I already told you, my roommate’s cat ate it!” Lance explained.

“Do you think I’m a fool? Cats don’t do that. They like to lay around in the sun and chase tiny creatures,” Iverson replied.

“Yes, but this one hates me! I keep telling you that this cat hates me!” Lance half yelled.

But it didn’t matter. He still got extra work to send in in order to pass this class.
