"achoo!"

a simple sneeze was all it took for this entire situation to escalate.

seasonal allergies seemed to have caught up with shadow in the wintertime, not that he'd like to admit it as much, but it was true nonetheless.

he sneezed, once, and you jokingly told him to: "shut the fuck up" instead of saying bless you. shadow isn't sensitive, hes never been. but you, his beloved, telling him to shut up? he'll bawl his eyes out.

".. tch. rude."

he scoffed in annoyance, getting up and immediately leaving your place. he purposely slammed the door, just enough so you'd hear it. for the rest of that day, he didn't speak to you once out of anger and pettiness.

but if he was being completely honest, he was waiting for you to talk to him first.
