KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS MY INTERPRETATION OF BORIS THE CHESHIRE CAT! And, since he is supposed to be the Cheshire cat from Alice in wonderland he's also going to have some of the same powers. Enjoy~ THIS IS A BORIS X JACKIE!
‡
"BORIS!" I shouted as I found the remains of his game on my front step.
"Yeah?" He purred poking his head down from the roof as his tail twitched excitedly.
"How many times have I told you not to leave dead crap in front of my door?!" I demanded pinching the newest bird he got with disgust. This one was a beautiful shade of blue with soft feathers. I glanced at its eye less face; it's so strange that not even the normal animals have faces. I wonder if they have clocks too? I guess not. I sighed. It's a shame he killed it; broken neck I'm sure.
"Clearly not enough." He teased flipping down from the roof with a grin. I glowered at his towering figure as he looked at me expectantly, as if waiting for his daily if not hourly scolding. I swear he's just like a little kid!
"Well, stop it! I don't want dead things in my room." I growled flipping up the nearest trash can and dropped the little bird in. Ugh...disgusting.
"I can't help it. It's a gift!" He cried wrapping his arms around my waist.
"For what?!" I demanded leering at his stupid head. Why in the world would I even want a dead bird?!
"Hm...I don't know?" He chuckled and leaned his head into my shoulder with a quick purr. Ugh...he's too affectionate.
"Get off. I need to get to work."
"Blech." He said, exaggerating and pinched his nose as if the mere words smelled of putrid trash. I slipped out of his arms slapping them aside.
"Yeah, well it's fun for me." I sourly said rechecking my workers belt that swung from my hips like a giant X. I ignored his prattling going off to check the wiring in the rollercoaster. I heard Gowland saying something about mismatching wires? Boris's grin never left his face as his tail twitched excitedly. I peered back at his face.
"Why are you following me?" I suspiciously questioned. He's up to something; I know it. Either that or he's just really bored.
"No reason~," he purred with the same devilish grin plaster on his face as he easily kept pace with me. What is he planning? I hastily trotted up to the board which was tightly screwed in place. My eyes scrunched together as I worked on just opening the box. Who closed this so tightly? My gaze flickered back to Boris as he leaned over me watching my progress one step at a time. I swear if he rigged this and something pops out at me I'm going to beat that cat -
With a sudden spring the door popped off as the circuit board threw up its thin wire contents in one huge mess. I gapped at the large lump of tangled wires that landed on my lap; the wires were lengthened?
"Boo...I was hoping it would come out faster than that." Boris sighed disappointed. I gawked at the cat in horror.
"You did this?! Boris, what have I told you about messing with the rides?!" I shouted, flabbergasted at his senseless teasing. Does he have any idea how long it will take to fix this?!
"Yep~," he purred brushing his hand by my head. I held back a growl as I slapped his hand away. "Are you angry?"
"Furious! Pissed! Livid! Take your pick." I threatened pointing my wrench at the cat. He sheepishly smiled with his hands up.
"Sorry sorry~ it was more funny thinking about it while doing it than it really is. Am I forgiven?" His tail swept my arm as if inviting me to rip it right out of him. My hand shot out and caught the useless extra limb as Boris stiffened. His face blanched as he still held the same sheepish smile from before.
"Uh, please forgive me?" He nervously asked now realizing the true danger here. I glared over his face before I let out a sigh, forcing the tension to roll off. Kid...just like a freaking little kid...they do it, say sorry, and then screw things up again. I swear...my gaze softened as I loosened my hold letting his soft fur calm my nerves as he slid it out of my hands
"Fine. Only if you help me clean it up."
"Aw~ but that's boring!" He complained. No, not a little kid. More like a spoiled little brat.
"Boris...!" I dangerously began as I snatched hold of his boa. "If you don't help me I'll violently tear off that pretty little tail of yours and wear it as a scarf!" His nervous smile still amazingly held as I turned my back, "Fine. If you don't want to help then at least go somewhere else!"
I irritably say down, crossly fixated at the task ahead. Jeez...this is going to take hours! I was planning to practice some martial arts later but I guess that's going to have to wait. This stinks...I haven't been able to practice for a few 'days' here and I can literally feel myself going nuts with all this stupid stress built up! I jumped as a large, soft fluffy snake draped over my shoulders. Boris wrapped his arms around me deterring me from ripping the present off as he rested his chin on my shoulder.
"Sorry...I was bored earlier." He pathetically used as an excuse, "will this work as a replacement for my tail?"
"So you decided to screw with me?" I snapped back less angry than before. I huffed. Geez...I can't stay mad at him for long can I? I reached up as he cringed but held his where he was, pinching and rubbing his ear. "Yeah, it works. Now help me out."
"Alright...," he moped sitting down next to me. His eyes narrowed as he looked over the new found work with a grimace. Uh oh; his interest isn't going to hold long. I desperately racked my mind to do something that will tempt him to stay before an idea came.
"I bet I can untangle these faster than you." I challenged fiddling with two knotted wires. His eyes immediately flashed as he took a handful with an excited grin.
"You're on!"

I was wrong before; it took hours before we finished, all and up into the night. I curled my back in stretching out the stiffness in my back.
"Gah! I thought we would never finish!" Boris wailed falling right onto his back with a pained grin.
"Hm...," I hummed at his stupidity. And I wouldn't have had to do this if you hadn't screwed up in the first place!
"Exactly. And it would take taken me hours more if you weren't here so don't mess with the circuit boards anymore. Someone could get hurt if it wasn't found!" I growled once more as my irritation began to flare again. Now that we're done I can yell at him some more.
"Yeah...," he pouted. I grinned at his cute expression and poked his nose.
"You can mess around just not will people's safety; if their put in danger I have to fix it, and that could put me in danger. Got it?" I said, shivering a bit as the cold night air began to get to me. Huh? I glanced up to the sky spying the hundreds of stars that glittered like sparkles that were spilled onto a black sheet of paper. I smiled and laid down with Boris looking at the beautiful gas spheres in the sky. I jumped slightly as the back of my head touched Boris's arm.
"The rocks hurt your head." He merely said, grabbing my head with his arm and laid it on his outstretched bicep. With his same hand he tugged at my hair, using his other arm for his own sort of pillow. We remained silent for a little bit as the night somehow grew darker, radiating the stars present and even added a few more in.
"That's beautiful isn't it?" I whispered with a touch of sadness. Ah, it's been a while since I just laid back and looked at the stars. When was the last time? With my brother Jay I think? My heart constricted as my expression fell. Ah, Jay...
"Oh-! A shooting star!" Boris shouted, suddenly tensing with excitement. I chuckled at hiss childish reaction.
"Make a wish! Make a wish!" I complied finding myself getting swept up in his excitement. I grinned and closed my eyes content with how things were at the moment. Boris can be really nice when he isn't messing around with the rides. I wonder why he does it? I bet it's just to see me get mad -
A soft pair of lips pressed against my mouth with a warming touch. My eyes popped open as I gawked into Boris's steady gaze, measuring my reaction. His slit green cat eyes absorbed every bit of shock and surprise my eyes foretold as he pulled back, almost startled by his own movement before a grin lit up his face.
"You're lips looked cold." He purred, as if justifying why he stole a kiss. My eyes remained wide at the unexpected movement. K-Kiss...? He slipped his arm out from beneath me as he danced out of reach if I decided to attack him. "See you tomorrow!"
"Boris-!" I shouted as I sat up, reality smacking me upside the head. Gone. How does he do that? It's almost as if he turns invisible...I touched my lips, still feeling his lingering warmth. Ah, that felt nice...
Wait a minute.
Stop right there.
Nice?
NICE?!
He stole my first kiss and then acted so nonchalantly about it! No, it wasn't nice. Not at all! I-It was only because of the cold! T-That's all...I struggled to come up with a logical view point but my furiously blushing face denied it all. His lips were warm; more than just because it was cold. No way; he was just teasing me! That's all! Boris doesn't feel like that...
...Does he?

Well, here's the first chapter for my little kitty Boris~ I figured that since he was the Cheshire cat that he would have some of the cat's ability like turning invisible and at some points even floating or flying around. REVIEW AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! If I get more than 10 reviews I'll post the next chapter and assume you want this. Thank you!
