Munkustrap stared longingly at the silver Queen beside him, He couldn't believe it. In such a short time he'd fallen in love with her. He knew it could never be. Demeter was already his mate. Plus, Ghita was one of Macavity's fighter cats. A cat trained by Macavity, the enemy of the entire Junkyard. It could never be.
She turned to face him, softly looking at him with her pale gold eyes. She loved him. How could she love him? He was the enemy of the entire Empire, the cat who'd thrown Macavity out long before. Everyone in the Empire thought of him as evil. They couldn't be more wrong. He was the sweetest most understanding Tom she'd ever met. As the moon rose higher, it glistened of his soft silver and black fur. She longed to touch that fur, to be kept safe by it. Sighing she snuggled close to him. He looked at her joyfully, but also surprised. She smiled at him gently as he put his arm around her. A song came to her mind and she started to sing softly.
Kiss me too fiercely
Hold me too tight
I need help believing
You're with me tonight
Munkustrap listened blissfully to her sweet voice, echoing through the moonlit night.
My wildest dreamings
Could not foresee
Lying beside you
With you wanting me
Just for this moment
As long as you're mine
She touched his cheek softly with one silver paw, feeling the soft fur on his face.
I've lost all resistance
And crossed a border line
And if it turns out
It's over too fast
I'll make every last moment last
As long as you're mine
She stopped singing. She needed to hear him, to know that he felt the same way. His soft, low voice was music to her ears.
Maybe I'm brainless
Maybe I'm wise
But you've got me seeing
Through different eyes
Somehow I've fallen
Under your spell
And somehow I'm feeling
It's up that I fell
She joined in, their voices blending together until they were one.
Every moment
As long as you're mine
I'll wake up my body
And make up for lost time
Munkustrap looked lovingly at her, saying what was on both their minds.
Say there's no future
For us as a pair
Ghita joined him once more.
And though
I may know
I don't care
Just for this moment
As long as you're mine
Come be how you want to
And see how bright we shine
They stared at the silver moon, as its beams shone down, glistening off their silver fur.
Borrow the moonlight
Until it is through
And know I'll be here
Holding you
As long as you're mine
His blue-gray eyes met her gold ones. He leaned in and kissed her softly. There might not have been a future for them, but all they could do was focus on this moment. The moment they were together.
