A/n: So for a complete change of pace, I decided to crank up the heat a little and try a more risqué piece than my previous attempt at a CATS drabble. It came out kind of interesting... though a bit confusing, I admit. I still don't know if it works all that well with the theme "flaw." It's a flawed relationship/situation, so... I guess... it does...
WARNING: Slash, sex, drugs, rock 'n roll... well, okay, maybe not drugs and rock 'n roll... but definitely male/male slash and very strong implications of sexual interaction. So yea. You stand warned.

Bittersweet Reverie
"Stay."
"I can't."
Their entwined shadows lurched beneath the starless sky, long, thick sighs smothered by the wind.
"Don't leave me."
"I can't stay."
Night was their shroud. Unseen, unheard, pretense fell with the sun and desire surfaced with the moon.
"Please."
"You know I can't."
In the day they shared a nod, a smile, a glance at most. Here, no longer apart under the gaudy sun, no longer concerned with appearances to now absent peers, they were free at last. Limbs tangled, lips met and bodies locked together in unbridled passion.
"I'm nothing without you."
"We have no choice."
It was crazy, and they knew it. Touching, wanting, feeling what they felt was criminal, they knew. But they could not change. Instead, they hid.
"Don't go."
"I'd stay if I could."
Precious moments passed, currents of ecstasy steadily rising and falling between them. At last the lovers slowed and nestled into a sleepy cuddle, purring lightly. The older cat curled against the younger's back, his arms wrapped possessively around the smaller form. The younger leaned into his lover's embrace, tilting his head slightly and almost smiling with tired delight.
"I love you."
The first rays of sunlight hinted forebodingly across the horizon.
"…I can't stay."
-- FIN --
A/n: Ooh, I never said who the couple was, my baaad. I just figured everyone would be happiest imagining whatever couple they preferred to see in this situation rather than just going with the couple I chose. I actually did sort of have one in mind, but it would make absolutely no sense without further context or something. If you REALLY want to know, you can ask, but... it's pretty random... especially for this drabble...
PLEASE REVIEW.
I do love reviews... I would probably do a dance for every review I get.
