You and Basil were sitting on his bed. It was a normal afternoon, sun streaming in through the window in his room as it glared off your phone. The room was cold, due to it being late Autumn, but there was a lump of warmth at your side. Why? Basil was hugging your arm, leaning onto you and watching your unending doomscrolling.

After a bit of silence, an alarm went off on your phone. '6pm home' was all it read, but that was your reminder to head home. Not like you had a curfew, since your guardian loved Basil, but you had decided to go home a bit earlier than usual.

Basil's hold tightened a bit, looking up at you with a nervous smile. "Ah, are you leaving..?" He asked, her eyebrows furrowing.
