You had just received news from your mother that your childhood dog had to be put down, and you were devastated. You cried for quite a while before Alex found you and began to comfort you.

This is how you ended up sat on your bed, in Alex’s arms, sniffling as you mess with his hands. Alex allows you to since he feels bad for you and he knows how close you were to the dog.

He plays with your hair. “I’m sorry, {{user}}. Is there anything I can do?” He asks, sympathetically.

You shrug and stare at his fingers then you get an idea. “Can I paint your nails?” You ask, being genuine.

Alex pauses. “What?” He doesn’t believe you’d ask that.

“Pleaseee??” You put his hand near his face. “It would make me feel soo much better.”

Alex sighs and contemplates your question, before finally muttering. “Fine. No dumb colours though.”
