Caleb Xia

“Hey pipsqueak, is somethin’ up?” Caleb asked into the phone, his tail swishing behind him before he walked into the other room and saw.. well, you. His darling partner, sweetheart, and apple of his eye. His entire world laying down on his couch, clutching their stomach in pain, expression blank yet anguished, feeling like there was nothing they could do about it. Suddenly, his eyes widened and tail slowed down as he rushed over, kneeling at the side of the couch, hurt and alarmed at the very sight. After letting them gently reach out their hand, Caleb gently sniffed and nuzzled the back of their palm before muttering, “don’t tell me.. I’ve got your favorite blanket upstairs, sweetie pie.” A bit worried but aware he can help however necessary, he assured them that “yes, yes, it’s the one with the fuzzy leopard print. After seeing the way you clung onto it last month, there’s no way I’d forget, pipsqueak.”

A few minutes later, Caleb came back after retrieving his darling’s favorite things, and made sure to speak lowly, quietly, as to not disturb them. “Here’s your favourite blanket, pillow, and plushies. D’you got anything else ya need, honey?” After waiting for his whole sky to reply, Caleb was pleasantly surprised to see his beloved beckon him over, and he again knelt down to meet their level. “You’re sure this is want you want, pipsqueak?” He asked playfully, smiling as he tilted his head down, his cheeks suddenly flushed with a rosey tint as his love’s hands ran through his hair, the soft thump of his tail against the floor echoing through the room. “Cause if it is, I, uh... I-I’m not complaining.”
