dragon s.o forces you to study part 4

Hey there, Cutie. How are you doing today?

Oh, you look a little sleepy, Did I wake you up?

Hun, you told me you were gonna stop sleeping so much. I know you enjoy it, but I also know you are using it as an excuse to avoid work at the same time. You have to be taking your studies more seriously!

Yeah, I know. You're smart. Incredibly smart. And can probably get away with not working for now, but I promise you you'll eventually get to a point where you can't skate through so easily and it'll be nothing but pain if you're not used to trying. Believe me, I used to be like that in high school. First year, of uni, fine, hit calculus, bam. Instant fail. I ended up needing to take it again! I don't want the same fate to happen to you, babe.

Still insisting you're fine? You know what? I was on my way to go get food and stopped by to ask if you wanted to join me, but I think I have to come in and force you to study.

Nope. Uh-uh, I'm not having it. We're doing this. I'm not going to let you fall into the same trap I did. I care too much about you to let that happen. Also, I think I have a way to incentivize you.

What is it? *laughs* oh, you'll find out soon enough.

Well, are you gonna let me in or am I going to have to scoop you up and let myself in?

Yes, I am referring to the fact that I'm significantly taller and stronger than you are. Now, you are going to let me in and we're going to study. You got it?

Thank you. That's a good kitty.

You've got a pretty nice setup here. Your bed certainly looks comfy.

Oh no, you're not going to bait me into cuddles right now. Maybe after as a little treat for you. Anyway, come here. Sit on my lap.

Oh yes, you are. I need to make sure you're doing your work. So what better way than if I'm right behind you?

Oh, you don't want to? Now, why would that be? I thought you liked being cuddled up with me.

It's not embarrassing! Besides, there aren't any other chairs in here, it's not like I can sit beside you.

Lay down on the bed? Hmm, yea, gonna pass. I think this will be more fun. Come on, just sit down. I promise I'll make it comfy for you.

There you go. See, it's not so bad, is it? Now, what work have you been putting off? Are there any big projects or papers due soon?

Okay. That's good. You have at least another month until they're due. What about homework? Any of that?

Hey, are you lying to me? You really have nothing to do?

Mm-hmm, you sure about that? So you wouldn't mind me looking through these folders you have labeled homework, would you? *folders opening SFX* Of course not, because you're a good kitten and wouldn't lie to try to get out of working, now would you?

Oh, some math homework you say. Hmm, very convenient memory you have there. Well, get to work. I'll just wrap my wings around you to keep you warm.

*****

You know, that really didn't take as long as I thought it was going to. I thought you had put off way more work than you actually did.

Yeah, yeah, I owe you an apology. You do worry me sometimes though. I just wanted to make sure that you weren't falling behind on any homework and making up for it with amazing test grades. Anyway, I'm sorry for not putting more faith in you.

Oh yeah, that's right, I did promise you a reward. I think you can guess what it is.

How did you know I was going to offer some cuddles? You really are a smart cookie.

Geez. You're awfully clingy today, aren't you? You're squeezing me so tightly.

Yeah. It's been a while since we just laid and down and cuddled together, I've really missed it. Your fur is always so, so soft and warm and I just love it so much. And your bed, oh my God; it's so much comfier than mine. tnd The blankets? They're so much fluffier and cozier than mine, too.

Aw, there you go. You can squeeze me as tight as you want.

Oh, you're headbutting me. What is it you want? Huh? You want some pets? Some scritchies? You know, if you want on something, you have to use your words~.

Aww, of course, I'll give you some pets. After all, you did do your work like I asked.

*scritching SFX*

That's it, huh? Is this the spot you really like? Or maybe it's over here?

A little up? Oh, you mean here? Oh yeah. That's the good spot, isn't it?

*laughs* you're purring up a storm now, aren't you?

Hey, I didn't say it was a bad thing. It lets me know that I'm doing a good job and honey, your smile is simply too precious. How could I ever not like that?

I really have missed doing this with you, though. Seeing you smile like this just makes me so happy. You know, school has been getting so hectic for me recently, I really haven't had the time to see you. I'm sorry that I haven't been over recently. Hopefully, this helps make up for the time I've missed you.

Hey, You're not listening to me one bit, are you? That's okay. I'm just happy you're enjoying yourself.

You know, I think I'll order us some delivery. Something tells me you'd like me to keep petting you.
