BONUS SCENE
★☆★☆★
Having lost Petey somewhere behind him, Dog Man slows his pace a bit. He still couldn’t help but smile at the look that had been on Petey’s face after he’d cuffed him. The way the cat had pouted indignantly had been absolutely
hilarious.
Slowing his gait to a speedy walk, Dog Man pauses for a moment, noticing his reflection in a store window along the street. His head fur was all smoothed, lying calm and flat, unlike its usual messy state.
That must have happened when Petey….
Pet him. Dog Man turns his head from side to side curiously examining his reflection. Petey definitely seemed to have detangled his fur, settling it and making it behave better than normal.
Instinctively, he lifts his hand, about to ruffle his fur out of place again, as it was part of his ‘bad boy’ image, but just before his hand made contact, he froze. The feeling of Petey’s calming strokes through his fur, his claws ever so gently scratching into all of the right places… it was still so fresh in his mind.
Slowly, he lowers his hand back down to his side. Maybe, perhaps, it wouldn’t hurt to keep his fur neat for just a little bit longer.
