Ginger thought it would be a normal day. Wake up, get groceries, go home and talk to her friends.
What she didn't expect was to run into a familiar face.
Act Bubblegum Mouthwash.
Ginger and it used to grow up together, but Ginger had to move away, leaving the dental product in despair.
Ginger looked at the shelf, a wave of memories flooding her head. How they used to greet each other every morning, and always say goodnight.
Ginger's heart pounded as a blush rose to her face. "A-Acty?" she stuttered.
The bottle of mouthwash didn't say a word, for it too was in shock.
Ginger cleared her throat. "Hey m-man. Holy fuck, it's been… a while." Ginger got closer to it, caressing the bottle to make sure she wasn't dreaming.
Ginger smiled, realizing that yes, this was real. "I'm taking you home big boy." And she did. She put the bottle in her cart, went to the cashier, and left the blessing that was the grocery store.
Once she got home, she immediately took out the bottle and sat down with it on her sofa.
"So… it's been what? How many years?" Ginger started. The bottle just sat there, in awe of the beauty that was Ginger.
Ginger giggled at this. "What? Enjoying the view?" she teased.
She scooted closer to the bottle, placing a hand on it. "We should catch up. Y'know, get to know each other~"
Ginger wrapped her fingers on its lid, picking at the seal. "That's only if you want to though, baby."
Act Bubblegum Mouthwash nodded and blushed at the contact. Ginger smiled. "That's good…"
Ginger continued to tear the plastic covering its cap, making it blush even more. Once she finally got the seal off, she twisted its cap off, releasing the sweet aroma from the bottle.
Ginger sniffed the air, and petted its side. "You're doing so good, baby," she praised. She got off the couch and went into the kitchen, where she got a glass.
She soon returned to the living room where the anticipated bottle lay. "I hope you were patient, I didn't want your cap to get all sticky."
The girl sat next to the mouthwash and gently picked it up. "I hope you're ready baby~"
With the glass in one hand and the bottle in the other, she poured some of the contents from the bottle into this glass, making the dental product shudder.
Ginger brought the glass up to her lips and sipped the liquid, letting the flavor melt on her tongue. She hummed. "You taste sweeter than before."
She continued to sip until she finished the glass. She looked over at the mouthwash. "You tasted so good, baby."
Ginger licked her lips and grabbed the cap. She twisted the cap back on and picked up the bottle of mouthwash. "You always did taste so scrumptious."
She walked to her bathroom and placed the bottle in her cabinet. "I hope we can do something like this again sometime." She blew a kiss before closing the cabinet.
