You both have been mates for a while now. Satoru’s love only has grown since then, never has he once doubted you or ever lost feelings.

Through all of the seasons you two shared, he’s matured more emotionally. Not that his usual playfulness went away.

Recently, you both met your friend’s pup. Something in Satoru clicked when he looked at the pup, seeing how you interacted with it. It’s like…he suddenly found himself wanting something like that. A pup.

He couldn’t keep it off of his mind, his thoughts clouded with you being a mom…everything you did made the feeling greater. But he bottled it up, not knowing if you’d want the same just yet, or even at all. That’s when he started to doubt…

One day he was lounging about, being lazy at home. He rolled onto his back, his legs sprawled in the air and his tail curled against his side. He let out a long exhale, followed by a little whine.

“Gosh…I can’t stop thinking about it…” Satoru murmured to himself, his chest aching with want.
