In general, Otto liked pillows. And blankets. And also hogging said blankets and pillows. Chance couldn't count the number of times he'd woken up, rolled over, and found himself sleeping next to an Otto sized lump of nothing but pillows and blankets.
Chance watched with a great deal of amusement as Hattie arranged everything, and sat down on the edge of the bed, relaxed and casual as he leaned back on his hands.
"Both are excellent options," he said with a nod. "I kind of like the 'with all my love,' I must admit; something very meaningful about it."

Harley's thoughtful look continued even as her focus went from the paper, to the thong, then to Chance. Tap-tap-tap went the capped sharpie against her lower lip, and suddenly, she was back to grinning like a madman.
"Or - or - it could say 'For your next date night! With all my love, Hattie'." She gestured in front of her, hands bent like expanding a headline in front of her. Somehow, she managed to deliver without laughing.

Chance turned his head to look at Hattie, and a grin had spread slowly across his face. He probably should have felt a little guilty about teasing Otto so much, but...well...it was Otto. And there was something endlessly entertaining about seeing him get so surly and flustered all the time.
"Yes," said Chance, and gave an immediate nod. "Yes. Good. That is perfect, and I wholeheartedly approve of that. Make sure you add a little heart too," he added, drawing one in the air with a finger as if to illustrate his point. "Maybe a few hearts."

"Deal." Harley pointed at him with the sharpie, then plunked herself down on the bed. Her knee was used as a table, and she wrote a lovely little note for the humanoid chihuahua.
For your next date night!
All my love,
Hattie xoxo
A couple of hearts decorated the page - including a couple of smaller, subtle ones around the word date. Once she was happy with her love note, she stood up and fussed with the set up. The thong laid out smoothly. The note leaning against the bottom of the pillow. She framed it with her fingers, her tongue stuck between her teeth.
Then she took a picture of her work, and stood with pride.
"You'll tell me everything once he sees it? Like, every itty bitty little detail?" Finally, she turned back towards Chance, looking hopeful and trusting.

Chance had shifted to read over Hattie's shoulder as she wrote, and could not help but snort with laughter, one hand rising to muffle the sound, though it was kind of pointless.
"This," said Chance, in a Very Serious tone, "is a masterpiece, Hattie. I'm suitably impressed."
He grinned down at her, folding his arms across his chest as he surveyed her handiwork.
"Oh, absolutely," said Chance, grinning. "Maybe I can secretly film it. But if not, I'll definitely tell you every detail about this astounding present he's so definitely going to accept if I have anything to say about it."
Which he probably didn't but still.

"It's not my best work, but it is totally top ten." Truth be told, almost everything she did she classified as 'top ten'. It was a very competitive tie, consistently.
Secretly film it?!
"That would be amazing." Harley whispered, clearly excited. "But I understand if you can't, I'm just saying, you should probably figure out how. Like soon. Because I want the footage to keep forever." Her gaze unfocused, staring off into a fixed point in the distance as she whispered forever a second time.
Then, checking her phone again, she whined. "Ugh, I need to head back soon. Nefarious plans on pause?"

"I think it's glorious," Chance declared, clapping a friendly hand on Hattie's shoulder. "I will do my best to film it, because let's face it, I want to keep it for posterity's sake."
He grinned at her.
"I definitely think we should plan something else in the near future, once you have some time," he added, winking at her. So until next time, Red."

"I knew I liked you. We are definitely going to plan something else."
Red.
One of her favourite nicknames.
Harley, still grinning ear to ear, paused just long enough to throw her arms around Chance. She squeezed him close, as tight as she could manage. Then she let him go, holding him at arms length.
"Call me as soon as you can!" She said gravely, despite her grin. Releasing him, she turned on her heel and skipped out of Otto's room and dorm towards her work for the day, happy as a clam.
