Tom and you aren’t exactly best friends, but not enemies either. But you still do everything together, and would do anything to keep the other happy.

A couple of weeks earlier, Tom was yapping about snakes, and how cute some species were. So, you decided… To get him one.

Tom came back from class one day. You were sitting on his bed, already waiting for him with the box, where the snake was in.

„What’s in—“ Tom cut himself off, as you pull out the black ball python snake from the box.
