Okay PROMPT: so one day Isak comes home and finds that Even brought home a puppy. And Isak's first thought is that this is impulsive and Even's mood seems so heightened by it that he instantly worries. When he finally confesses what's on his mind, Even tells him that it isn't that. It's about how Even is thinking of their family and he talks about everything he sees in their future. No genre 'Even... is this about... you know?' No opening sentense/word limit Just go for it. I'll love it anyway

Isak’s mind was still dwelling onthe exam when he entered the apartment. It had been the last exam of the lastcourse of his final year at Uni, and less than ten seconds after handing in hisset of wrinkled pages covered in hasty scribbles and formulas, he had suddenlyrealized that he had fucked up the last question. Wouldn’t it be great if thatcost him his diploma? Fuckup Valtersen, reporting for duty! He shook his head,as though physically casting the thoughts out of his head as he took off hisshoes. He was being dramatic. It was one question.

“Even?” he called out into the quietapartment. He really didn’t feel like being alone right now. The fact thatthere had been no reassuring or excited texts from his boyfriend waiting forhim when he checked his phone upon leaving the classroom did not exactly helphis mood.

Isak threw his jacket vaguely in thedirection of the coat rack, where it slid down the wall and landed, crumpled, onthe floor. With a shrug, he walked down the hallway and into their small butcozy living room. There, he was met with the sight of Even’s torso and legs stickingout from beneath the sofa. His white T-shirt had rolled up a bit, revealing thesmall of his back, and his long legs seemed to span the entire length of theliving room.

“What the fuck?” Isak mumbled, moreto himself than to Even, who slowly emerged from under the sofa, tresses ofhoney-colored hair sticking out every which way, a dust bunny hanging off thecollar of his shirt, and a faded price sticker adorning his right cheek. Hiseyes were spectacularly blue today, with a glint of childlike joy that matchedthe wide grin on his face.

The corner of Isak’s lips twitchedas he narrowed his eyes, trying to convey confusion and exasperation, but thesmile he failed to contain clearly betrayed the wave of affection that hadsurged through him at the sight of such a disheveled Even.

“Hello!” Even said in that familiartone that stressed the final vowel sound of the word right as his eyebrows shotup.

“Wh-” Isak started, but before hecould form the question, his eyes landed on the small ball of gray fluff thatwas wriggling between Even’s lean hands. His jaw dropped. “Is that a dog?!”

“No,” Even said, cradling theexcited animal in one hand as he stood up, “it’s a puppy. And it’s not just anypuppy – it’s our puppy!”

The puppy was small enough to fit inEven’s hand. Its tiny paws gesticulated wildly in the air as Even brought itcloser to Isak. The dog’s eyes were deep brown and alert as it pushed its pinknose closer to get a good sniff of the newcomer.

“Isn’t she cute?” Even asked, as heraised the pup to Isak’s face, which was immediately covered in wet dog kisses.

“Pfftbbt,” Isak took a step back. “Notcute enough to want to make out with her!”

Even’s eyes were positively glowingas he looked at the tiny animal in his arms. Isak reached up and removed thesmall sticker from Even’s cheek.

“What were you doing under the couch?”

“Ah, we’ll have to find a way tokeep her from squeezing under there. She’s so fucking tiny!”

Isak hesitated for a moment, and hecould feel the realization sink like lead into his stomach.

“Even...” he said softly, “is thisabout... you know?”

“What?” Even looked up.

“You know, I just mean,” Isakstammered. He still found it difficult to bring it up in case he was wrong. And he never wanted it to sound accusatory. “Areyou feeling okay?”

“Yeah, I feel great,” Even said witha laugh. “How are you?”

Isak chuckled softly. “Uhh… d’youmean great like… you might wanna do some weird things that you wouldn’tnormally do just because you feel so fucking stoked? Or great like, you know,everything is chill?”

Even’s face fell slightly as hecocked his head to the side.

“Isak?” he said. “Darling? Man of mylife?”

Isak rolled his eyes.

“I’m fine,” Even said simply. “Justhappy.”

“Yeah?” Isak raised an eyebrow,smiling again in spite of himself. “You don’t think it’s a bit... I don’t know,impulsive? To suddenly, uh, bring home a- a living being?”

“Hold her,” Even said, practically shovingthe puppy into Isak’s unprepared hands. Her little tail wiggled madly as shecontinued to sniff and lick Isak’s hands and arms.

“We can take her back if you want.” Evenshrugged, looking serious.

“No!”

“That’s what I thought,” Even smiledagain.

“It’s just… taking care of a puppyis a lot of responsibility. I mean, are we even allowed to have her in theapartment?”

“You don’t think I thought this through?Who do you think I am!”

Isak’s eyes were starting to hurtfrom rolling so much.

“I spoke to the landlord last Friday,”Even took a step closer and scratched the puppy’s chin as Isak held her. “I gother food, treats, toys, leash, all that shit. And she has a vet appointmentnext week.” He looked up at Isak, who, after all the time they’d been together,still felt a little drunk every time Even stood this close and gazed at himlike that.

“But if you don’t think we’re ready…”Even’s voice and gaze dropped.

“Ready for what?” It suddenly dawnedon Isak that, as unbearably adorable as she was, this wasn’t entirely about apuppy.

Even pressed his lips togetherslowly before speaking. “You’re about to graduate and start looking for jobs,”he said hoarsely. “Things are gonna change. They always do, you know?”

“Yeah…” Isak furrowed his brow. “So?”

“Don’t you… Aren’t you curious tosee,” Even paused for a moment before continuing. “To see how we’d work as uh..as a family?”

“I thought we already were,” Isakheard himself say instantly. Of course they were a family. Even was still thebest part of his life. He always would be. He chuckled. “What, do you want apractice round before we have kids?”

“So what you’re saying is you wantto have my babies?” Even asked straight-faced.

“Fuck,” Isak pushed him backlightly. “I want you to have my babies.”

“Okay.”

Even’s grin lit up his face like alantern, his eyes scrunched up into barely more than glittering slits.

“Should we name her Practice Roundthen?” he laughed.

“Welcome home, Øvelse.” Isak said totheir new pet before pressing his lips to Even’s softly.

As though realizing that she hadjust been adopted, Øvelse enthusiastically joined in on the kisses, but quicklyfound that this was something her new humans preferred to do alone.
