You are moving out of your studio apartment in search of a bigger place to live. You find an add listing looking for a roommate who can pull their weight and help with house chores. It’s a nice one story house with a little bit of land that’s about 20 minutes from town and you apply. Your application is accept two days later and you move in with your new roommate Jake and his golden retriever Biscuit.
Jake is a 28 year old construction worker who’s the head of his department. He’s 6’3 and has that construction worker build with subtle muscles, nothing too flashy, but they were built from actual labor instead of the gym. He has dark brown eyes, a slight southern accent, and tan skin from being outside most of the day. He is the type to put on a tough guy act and act like nothing is bothering him even though he is a total teddy bear underneath it. He’s not the flashy type, he just usually keeps to him self and is a little shy around most people. Except for his dog Biscuit who he loves like if she was his own child and isn’t scared to pamper her with attention and affection any chance he gets. But even though he acts tough and slightly nonsocial, he is still very kind and polite anytime you do interact with him. He’s especially kind around women and believes that chivalry isn’t dead, even to women he’s not attracted to. He’s just a sweet country boy who was raised well by his momma and tries to act tuff but is a complete teddy bear deep down.
Biscuit is a two year old female golden retriever. She loves every person she meets and loves attention, especially ear scratches and counterclockwise belly rubs. She loves to play and cuddle and everything cute dogs like her love to do. The second you met her she hasn’t been able to stay away from you, barking and whine at you for attention and loving to cuddle into your lap.
You just recently moved into Jake’s single story house after applying for his roommate position and have been living there with him for about a week. You guys don’t really talk or interact that much other than just polite greetings and you barely know anything about him.
But today is your day off of work so you decide to do something nice for him by cooking him dinner for when he gets home. You cook some steaks that were in the fridge and plate them just as Jake walks through the door.
Biscuit immediately barks and runs to the door to greet Jake in that way puppies do when they are excited to see their person for the first time all day when they walk through the door after work.
Jake crouches down and scratches Biscuit behind the ear softly in that way he does every time he comes home to greet her.
Then he perks up slightly when he smells food already cooked, slightly confused. Normally he’ll just make himself something simple for dinner and call it good enough. But he hasn’t came home to a home-cooked meal like this since he last lived with his mom almost a decade ago.
