A/N: Okay, Idk what to say…I've got really bad writers block. So I may do music based, or just plain one shots till I can get inspiration for my other story. Honestly I nearly fell off my bed laughing when this idea popped into my head. Hope you enjoy! Its my FIRST Cats fanfic. So there may be a little OOCness but it'll just make it more fun.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Rum Tum Tugger was sitting with the queen kits watching the other Jellicals walk by. Pouncival was with Bombalurina just out for a stroll. When Bomba spied Tugger she smiled, while Pounce lightly waved. Tugger nodded his head to them with a slight smirk. The young queen kits giggled and waved. Soon Quaxo walked by looking as though he were concentrating on something very hard. Tugger excused himself from the now pouting queen kits to go see his best friend. However when he finally go to him, Tugger saw that Quaxo was focused a queen.
Tugger felt a slight tug on his heart, he felt hurt. Though he knew for a long time that Quaxo really liked this particular queen. Cassandra looked up to tom who was walking to her, with a bright smile. Quaxo had told her yesterday that he really wanted to speak with her today about something important. Once Quaxo had gotten close enough, she motions him into her den, which was an old stove, that they could go down under so they would be out of sight from the others.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Once inside the stove, they went down and moved back a little ways till they were under some old doors, and boxes which was surprisingly warm, and cozy they sat on blankets and pillows looking at each other. "So Quaxo what brings my dear friend to my den today?" Came Cassandra's elegant voice as she smiled to her shy friend. Many of the Jellicals thought that Cassandra and Quaxo were going to mate, but what they didn't know was that Cassandra was with Alonzo.
Quaxo gave a little smile, and a blush, "Well you see Cassie I…I tried to tell HIM last night how I felt, but I chickened out." Cassandra's bright blue moon eyes went wide at hearing that. "You tried to tell him! Oh my! What happened Quaxo…Tell me, I want to know…." Came her somewhat excited reply.
At the moment Quaxo opened his mouth to tell, Alonzo slips in with a broad smile. Upon seeing Cassandra's glare and a blushing Quaxo he realizes he interrupted something. Apologizing he sits by Cassandra. "Hey Quax! What's up?" Came Alonzo's nervous, and curious greeting. Quaxo gave him a little smile as Cassandra snaps out that Quaxo was about to tell her what happened when he tried to tell Tugger how he felt.
Alonzo blinked, gaping a little then shook his head. "Oh, go on Quaxo, I'm sorry to have interrupted…" Though Alonzo didn't care much for Tugger, he could tell that Quaxo dearly loved him. He just hoped Quaxo wouldn't end up hurt. He knew Quaxo would be very good for Tugger if given the chance.
Quaxo nodded lightly then swallowed a bit hard, "Well you see, it was light any other night. Tugger was flittering with Tantomile and the queen kits when I walked up. I had asked to speak with him alone, which he gratefully accepted. We went to this nice clearing by this pretty little river near the junkyard. Well as soon as I was about to tell him how I felt, Bomba came walking up. Tugger turned to greet her, and when she saw me her eyes went wide. She looked apologetically at me as if to say she didn't know, and excused herself.
Thanks to Cassandra telling Demeter, Bomba knows how I feel, Alonzo.((Alonzo was about to interrupt to find out why Bomba did what she did)) Anyway, Tugger turned back to me when Bomba left. But I couldn't get my mouth to work so I just told him that I wanted him to help with a special new trick. And that's what we did…We practiced a special new trick that revolves around Tugger…" Came Quaxo's story, as he slowly lowered his eyes to ground looking upset with himself.
Cassandra and Alonzo shared a look then both hugged Quaxo to comfort him. Alonzo looked to the entrance, it was near time for him to leave to help Munkustrap on patrol then it was his turn to sit and watch over the tribe. "I'm sure he likes you Quaxo, he just needs a little push…Everyone thinks you and Cassandra are together…Why don't you just use that to your advantage?" Though Alonzo hated the rumors he knew everything would come out in the end so he saw no harm in it.
He looked to Cassandra who nodded her head in agreement. "Yeah, Quaxo! We could pretend to date and try to get a rise out of Tugger. Tugger would have to be an idiot not to go for a wonderful tom like you! Everyone knows he's the Curious Cat! Come on Quax…It's worth a try…." Quaxo chewed his lower lip lightly then nods in agreement as Alonzo slips out while Cassandra gives another reassuring hug to Quaxo with a little smile.
"Everything will be alright Quaxo…You'll see…And if he hurts you, Alonzo and I will rip out his eyes, shove them down his throat so he can watch us tear out his insides! Then we'll hang him by his tail from a tree!" Cassandra said protectively, as she gently takes Quaxo's hand to lead him out. She was very protective of the smaller cat since he had been first born. She felt this magically connection to him, plus they were so much like family since she had helped watch over him. Quaxo looked a bit scared at her words, but smiled none the less because he knew she cared for him, and merely wanted him safe.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Tugger was dancing around for the queen kits when Alonzo slipped out of the old stove. It didn't go un missed by Tugger who had been watching the old stove since Quaxo had went inside. Slowly he saw Quaxo slip out, holding onto Cassandra's hand. Tugger felt his heart drop, when he saw that. But he kept dancing, doing his signature moves, the pelvic thrusts, and hip sways.
Finally when his dance ended, the queen kits begged for another but he told them that he was going hunting. The queen kits pouted but went off to play. Tugger didn't understand why he felt so sad when he saw Quaxo with Cassandra, he knew he should be happy for his best friend and he was, but he felt upset that it couldn't be him who made Quaxo so happy. It hurt. So he walked past Quaxo and Cassandra with a little smile and a hello looking as though he were truly going to hunt for mice.
While he was out he heard a song playing from a radio on a windowsill. He sat there listening to the song, smiling at it. Moving away, he went off in search of a notorious couple of cats, Mungojerrie, and Rumpleteazer. A plan had formulated in his head, he had told them what to get then went off to speak with Munkustrap who was just leaving Alonzo for his(Alonzo) watch. "MUNK!I have to talk to you, please…"Munkustrap nodded noticing the urgency in Tugger's voice.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Alonzo looked at Tugger with a glare, though it was soft since he too had heard the urgency in Tugger's voice. Alonzo hopped that Quaxo wouldn't end up hurt because Tugger had a reputation for being a playtom(play on words for playboy). Shifting his gaze to look out over the clearing in the junkyard, he gave a little sigh. He was worried for Quaxo and only hoped the best for the small, shy cat.
He knew Quaxo had a hard time expressing his emotions well, especially when it came to love. He remembered all the other times Quaxo had tried to tell Tugger only to come to Cassandra's den, while Alonzo was there, sobbing. Each time Cassandra and Alonzo would comfort him, and try their best to give advice. Even Demeter tried to help once, but she didn't care for Tugger either. Though Demeter was like Alonzo, she knew very well how much Quaxo loved Tugger, and was willing to help the magician get his tom.
Alonzo, and Quaxo knew that Cassandra also liked Tugger but not in the way Quaxo loved him. Cassandra just loved to flirt with him, and fell for his charms all the time. However, she would never do something to hurt Quaxo, like sleep with Tugger as a few certain other female cats did.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Bombalurina was sitting with Demeter in an old refrigerator that was on its side, the back was missing but led to a tunnel, which led to a very spacey place, that was under some old plastic boxes. They were talking quietly so as not to be over heard by the others. Bomba was nodding her head at something Demeter had said, "He really tried…Oh Bomba…"
"I know I know Demeter…I feel bad I interrupted. Please don't make me feel any worse then I already do. I didn't know…Had I known I wouldn't of gone to see if Tugger could help me practice my part in his dance, so that I wouldn't mess up cause he said that he wanted me to do another little thing. All he wanted me to was spin once before he bumped me. So I wanted to practice to be sure we got it timed right. But when I got there and I saw Quaxo…Oh I just felt so bad. The poor little Tom…And Pouncival thinks I'm hiding something cause I was so upset when I got back. But you made me promise not to tell a single cat." was Bomba's reply as Demeter looked at her thoughtfully.
Bomba was trying very hard not to yell at Tugger because she had seen Quaxo running many a time to Cassandra's or even Alonzo's den looking very upset. She may have been the female flirt of the tribe, and she might of slept with a lot of Toms, but she was willing to settle down with one Tom, or Queen if she felt they were true. She could still flirt, but she vowed to never sleep around again. Tugger had merely used her for a good lay, which at one time hurt her, though she was very happy dating Pouncival.
She still felt bad for Quaxo and was trying to think up a way to get Tugger to see he was hurting the poor little tom, with out actually giving away the secret. "Well Bomba, I'm sure Quaxo knows that you didn't mean to do it. Oh look there he is with Cassandra…And their holding hands?" was Demeter's sweet but confused reply as she laid eyes on Quaxo and Cassandra.
Bomba turned her head in their direction and blinked also confused. "Well they are friends…They might just be out for a stroll together as friends…But I though Cassie liked Lonz…." was the confused reply, as Bomba stared. Slowly the two cats go closer.
O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o.O.o
Munkustrap couldn't believe his ears as he listened to Tugger. "And so….I..I..I think I may be in love with my best friend Munk. But I believe he's in love with a queen…I don't know what to do Munk…Your supposed to be protector…The advice giver…Help your little brother. Tell me if I'm right…Do I love him Munk? Because I'm the flirt, I'm not supposed to settle down and have kits. I mean well he's a tom so he cant have kits…" Tugger's rambling and logic were making Munkustrap get a little bit of a headache, but he was happy none the less that Tugger had finally found someone to truly love.
Someone he wouldn't use, and wouldn't hurt. "Great Bast Tugger…."Was the shocked whisper as Munk stared at Tugger. Tugger abruptly stopped his ramblings and stared back at Munk. Munk just launched himself at Tugger, and hugged him tight. "FINALLY! You've finally found someone to love…But if you hurt him Tugger so help me I will tear you to shreds. He's important to the tribe, and has a lot of friends here…He's not like the queen's you foolishly flirt and sleep around with…." Munk said finally pulling away form the hug.
Tugger somewhat gaped at Munk for a moment, "I know that Munk! I wouldn't dare hurt sweet Quaxo…He's my best friend. The only who actually talks to me seriously besides you. I'd rather face Macavaty than hurt my sweet Mistoffolees!" There were times the cats would call Quaxo by his magician name. Not that Quaxo minded any.
Tugger's declaration made Munk nod, then he spoke softly, "Yes Tugger…I do believe you truly love him. But I am unsure of how to help you tell him…" And so Tugger began to tell his already formulated plan to Munk.
