Is this feeling just my dreaming? We would never know

Shizu noticed Tsukyomaru preparing her favourite curry in the distance. “Hey…”
A disgruntled “hey” echoed in her lips, and of course she is drenched with the bodily fluids of the recent creature she killed, and of course, the money is little to support what is to come, but she knew that smile would brighten her day.
“Say Shizu…” Tsukyomaru gladly poured a huge glass of red wine. “Shall we forget about what happened, and recount a much happier time….”
“Anything…” Shizu started sipping the wine. “Just speak my love…”
“One of my biggest regrets that I have, is well I supposed to sign up for volunteering a day to do face painting for a kids’ home, but instead I have to…you know…”
Shizu laughed at Tsukyomaru, as she sipped the wine. “I bet it was the community development that mess our schedules, which is bad, because I wanted to take that assignment but yeah, in the weirdest of circumstances, there is one scary demon disguising itself to suck the souls of the animals….”
Tsukyomaru shuddered a little. “…Not the most ideal time to meet, when I am scrambling my hands on these cute kittens and whining puppies while you are throwing bombs out of your bra, and slicing its throat with craft scissors….”
I nearly have a heart attack just thinking of that.
“But I saved your ass…”
Tsukyomaru found himself taking another wine glass, and poured himself that red bottle. “Perhaps, but I wish that it should be how our meeting goes…”
“You know, out of movies, not us strewed in the fluids of the demons and kittens staring at us blankly.”
Shizu cannot help but to smile again. “Perhaps it is mere coincidence…” as she happily scooped the curry. “You know what I wanted after a warm bowl of curry?”
“More drinks?”
Shizu shook her head. “Do you still have that tub of Ben and Jerry’s chunky monkey as I so want that…”
Tsukyomaru did a small bow to Shizu.
“Well at your service madam…”
Shizu gave a sly grin. “Loyal as any puppy, want to please its master, better than my bosses themselves… “ she is indeed very very drunk.
“Come and sleep my love, and forget about today, because another would come soon…”
Shizu slurred at Tsukyomaru, as he carried her up bridal style to her bed. “I wonder if a kitten just fell into my lap…”
“Maybe…”

Next day

Tsukyomaru smiled pensively as he looked over a couple walking their sheltie puppy constantly barking at that unusual sight.
What the hell?
A handsome young man picking up a stray grey kitten and its sibling- a beautiful tortoise shell kitten, passing it to Tsukyomaru’s arms. “Hey…can you bring them in…they seems lost….”
“Oh…”
An idea is planted in his mind.
I think Shizu would like that, and plus this is an inside joke that both of us would know.
Immediately he thought of the names of these kittens. For the tortie, it should be Aila, and the grey one- I think Earl Grey would be funny for Shizu.
He quickly give a sniff on them, only to give a sulk.
“Shit they need a bath”
Perhaps coincidence could brighten someone’s day, but now they need to be cleaned before presenting to his exhausted wife.
A/N: A huge shoutout to Nikki for letting me finish it, I am like super slow over my bingo prompts but it is such a good break here! And plus kitties are great...
