"I think I like Cody…" Lucas gently rubbed the puppy's ears, smiling softly. "It fits him."

"It's not because I said I liked it, right?" Melissa asked as she continued to gently pet the puppy. "You actually like that one, because it's what you like?"

"Yeah. I'm the one who came up with it to begin with, after all." Lucas kissed Melissa's cheek softly.

"Mm, that's true. I do still like Cody, I agree that it fits." Melissa smiled at the kiss, resting her hand back in her lap.

Lucas nodded a bit, closing his eyes and relaxing with the puppy in his arms. "We'll have to get him a collar and a leash and such."

"Mhmm… we could go after school tomorrow. And then take him to the park with us, afterwards." Melissa offered in a light tone.

"Sounds good to me, Mel. What's he gonna do at home alone all day, though?" He asked. "I feel bad leaving him…"

Melissa sighed softly, giving him a slight frown. "We can't exactly take him with us. Especially without a collar. He's just gonna have to stay home."

"I know, I know… he's gonna be so lonely, though…" Lucas sighed, holding the puppy a bit closer to himself.

"I mean, I'll be at home." Mr. Brennahan added lightly, glancing back at them through the rear-view mirror. "I don't mind keeping an eye on the little guy for a while."

"Are you sure, sir? It wouldn't be too much trouble?" Lucas asked, looking up at Mr. Brennahan.

"Of course I'm sure. It'll be easier to keep an eye on him if he's in the room. And then he won't get into anything, he shouldn't." Mr. Brennahan hummed a little as he glanced back at them. "I don't think Melissa's mother would be thrilled if she came back to a mess."

"True…" Lucas scratched behind the puppy's ears gently. "Thank you very much, sir. For everything." He smiled softly.

“Of course. I want to make sure both of you are happy.” Mr. Brennahan replied with a soft smile. “If you are, then everything is paying off.”

"Well, I can't exactly speak for Melissa, but I'm definitely happy." Lucas brightened a bit and ruffled the puppy's fur.

“I’m just as happy,” Melissa grinned, nuzzling into Lucas’s shoulder. “Glad to hear that. I want to make sure that you’re happy as often as you can be.”

"T-Thank you, sir." Lucas flushed a bit and rested his head on Melissa's. He clearly wasn't used to people other than Melissa wanting him to be happy.

"No problem, Lucas." Mr. Brennahan hummed lightly, glancing back with a smile. "You two are important to me." With that said he fell silent, leaving the two teenagers alone.

Lucas flushed a bit harder and pulled the puppy closer to his chest, entirely unsure how to reply. Mr. Brennahan was a lot nicer to him than his own father had ever been.

Melissa smiled up at him, gently nosing into his cheek. "You okay, pink cheeks?" She asked softly, giving his hand a gentle squeeze.

Lucas huffed and looked away, quite red by now. "Y-Yeah, just… a tad overwhelmed…" He replied quietly.

(I can see my ability to write dwindling down between two posts- oof)

"Mm… m'kay." Melissa mumbled, sitting up enough to not be crowding him. "What's got you overwhelmed?" She asked softly, seemingly oblivious to the situation.

(Oof mood)
"Um… I'm not used to people other than you openly telling me that they care about me and my wellbeing."

"Oh-" Melissa whispered her surprise, glancing up to her dad. With a light smile, she turned back to him. "You're something worth being cared about. Trust me, because it's true."

Lucas nodded a bit, pulling the puppy closer to himself. "Sorry… I'm probably just being stupid."

(Lol, exactly)

"No, you're not being stupid." Melissa hummed lightly, kissing his cheek. "Come on, you should know better than that."

"Well, most people don't get flustered and overwhelmed when people say that they want them to be happy." Lucas sighed softly, fidgeting a bit.

"But it doesn't mean you're stupid." Melissa pointed out, starting to play with his hair. "It just means you get flustered easily."

"Well, we already knew that…" Lucas closed his eyes and relaxed a bit when Melissa touched his hair. "I just feel like I shouldn't be so surprised that people other than you want me to be safe and stuff. Is that conceited? I'm sorry…"
