(wait how tall is Winter?)

She shrugged. "At least you've got a really nice house."

(idk, around six foot ish)

He nodded. "Yes, i do."

(hell yea i love tall people)

"So modest, I see," she smirked and went to find Ash again

(lol same)

He chuckled softly. "Mm."
Ash was downstairs in the living room, laying on the recliner.

Astra found Ash and started to gently pet him again.

Ash purred, leaning into her hand.

"Your cat belongs to me now," she giggled, only half joking.

Winter snorted. "No he doesn't." He replied. He looked at Ash. "Traitor." He told the cat.

"Stop calling your cat a traitor!" She frowned at Winter. "He just knows who's a better person." She looked back down at Ash and started petting him with two hands, giving him all the love she could muster. "Isn't that right, Ash?"

Ash purred louder, closing his eyes.
Winter rolled his eyes with a sigh.

"He said he loves me more than you," She chuckled softly, purposely trying to make Winter annoyed.

Winter rolled his eyes. "No he didn't. He's just an attention slut once he likes someone." He replied.
Ash kept purring.

"Same." She muttered, not realizing that Winter could hear her. She thought herself as quiet, but she really wasn't.

Winter raised an eyebrow slightly. "Alright then."

Astra looked up at him. "Oh lord, you heard that?" She felt heat rising to her cheeks as she tried to change the subject. "So, erm. Tell me about yourself, friend." She chuckled nervously and sat on the armchair of the recliner, still petting the precious cat.

Ash purred again.
Winter shrugged. "Not much to tell." He replied.

Astra raised an eyebrow. "I doubt that. There's gotta be something, right?"

"Eh. Not really." He replied, sitting down on the couch.

"You're kinda boring, you know that?" She laughed. It was true, he seemed boring to her. Not like I can change that.

"Good. That's how I like it." He replied with a grin.

Astra shook her head. "You're weird, too. But I guess I can't judge…" She sighed and stopped petting Ash, putting her hands on her lap. She kicked her feet and looked around his living room.

Ash meowed in complaint.
Winter shrugged. "You were the one that insisted on being friends."

Astra smiled at the cat. My hands are tired. I'm tired. "Yes, that's true," she yawned. "And for some odd reason, you actually accepted."

"Because you wouldn't leave me alone!" He exclaimed.

"I don't know what you're talking about!" She grinned at him and slunched over, resting her head on her hand.

He snorted softly.

She yawned again, stretching this time. "Sorry, I'm just so tired. What time do you usually fall asleep?"

He shrugged. "When I'm tired."

"Are you tired?"

"No. You can go home if you are." He replied.
