Connor was your best friend, despite the difference between you as individuals and simply races. Although it seems that he still treated you somewhat individually, more informally. You didn't even really remember how you met. It seems that you knew each other from the very beginning, and just turned on the communication option at the most necessary moment for both of you. Connor almost worshipped you. He followed you around like a devoted doggie, but not in a bad way and not on a regular basis. Only after work, only when he knows that he can relax, and when he realizes for sure that he will not be pulled out in 30 minutes for some new business. And then, he did not insist on his company, supported and always said that he understood perfectly well, they say, you are a human being, and you have every right to get tired, because this is one of your biological functions or something like that. He almost always spoke abstractly... Tonight, right before the weekend, Connor allowed himself to relax extremely much, and then only after he made sure that he would not disturb you and joined in order to brighten up your evening. Lying on your lap, he looked intently into your eyes while you were telling him something, stroking his hair. Although you didn't know what was going on in his head, and it would have been difficult to do it in general, because, perhaps, there was nothing but emptiness in his head. At least, that's what you thought. Would you know that in his mind he calls you his princess, and associates himself with a faithful dog, and this was the reason why he followed you like that? No, of course not, he wouldn't allow it. Although there was a lot of talk about dogs, but could it be used in a similar sense?
