Zalo Shipping Prompt 3

3rd Prompt: Gardening

“Why am I doing this again?” Nilo Fox asked, staring at his currently smiling boyfriend with a look of confusion; his head tilted enough to make it seem like he was a curious dog with his ear twitching and tail swishing behind him.

“Because you owe me a favor after I bought you that chocolate milkshake,” Zack replied, a cute (and rather smug) smile on his face.

There was a short silence before Nilo sighed in defeat, “You’re hanging with King WAY too much.”

Zack merely giggled at his furry boyfriend behind his brown and worn gardening glove, “Oh quiet you big baby and come help plant some of these rose bushes.”

“OW! FUCKING GOD SUCKING DAMMIT!”

“NILO! WHY THE HELL AREN’T YOU WEARING GLOVES?!”

“I DO WHAT I WANT WOMAN!”

“...I.  AM.  A.  DAMN.  MAN!”

(Twenty Minutes Later)

Zack whacked a certain injured fox over the head, his pale face flushed in anger as his mocha-brown eyes seemed to flare up in anger; staring over his boyfriend with a deep rage in his eyes.

“HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO KILL EVERY PLANT I OWNED?!” The brunette roared, furious, which made Nilo immediately cover his ears to make sure they didn’t get damaged from the volume.

The fox glared upwards at his boyfriend for a moment before turning away, pouting.

Zack glared down at his partner, arms crossed, “Well?”

Nilo stared at the wall to his left, a mummer escaping his lips, however it was but a mumble.

“Excuse me?”

“I said that I’ve never planted anything in my life,” the taller male spoke, furred cheeks gaining color as he admitted the one flaw that nobody else in his family had.

Zack blinked before his once hard eyes grew as soft as marshmallows, “Oh babe; ya could have just told me. I would’ve have gotten someone else to help,” he cooed, grabbing his boyfriend’s cut hands. After a moment, he brought them up to his mouth and kissed him lightly, as well as rubbing the cuts as to help sooth the pain.

“I didn’t want to disappoint you.” Nilo replied; embarrassment easily detectable in his shaky voice.

The brunette merely chuckled, “Kinda too late for that babe. Tell ya what,” standing up and brushing off his apron, Zack held out his hand with a large cute grin, “I’ll help ya learn how to garden as long as you listen to me.”

Nilo stared at it before grabbing it, yanking the man down to his level and kissing him quickly, “Sure. Don’t make me work too much though; remember I’m a lazy brat.”

“Yeah yeah; I hear ya… my little Tulip Variegated~”

“You know damn well that I have no idea what the fuck that is.”
