Into the birdcage

by Maeve Moonstone

The aftermath of the Looney Tunes Show Tweety and Sylvester special. Rated for small amounts of sexual content in chapters 5 and 6 and high amounts of sexual tension throughout. Also rated for Tweety Bird's strong language in chapter 8 (which, I must admit, was REALLY fun to write) I know that it seems pretty bad in the beginning, but trust me, it gets better towards the end.

4. Time

I watched the clock.

He had said to meet him at midnight, so I waited dutifully. It was nine fourty seven now. Only two hours, thirteen minuites left.

Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock...

I pruned my feathers and tidied the cage, nervously glancing at the clock as the seconds went by... There really didn't seem to be enough time to get ready...

Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock...

Sitting at the feet of Granny near the fireplace, as she knitted her scarf...

Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock...

I glanced at the clock, having just finished clearing droppings from the floor of my cage. Wow, had all that time really gone by?

Tick, Tock, Tick, Tock...

I watched as the pendulum swung back and forth in a rhythmic pattern, a melody of time as the seconds went by.

Couldn't the damn thing go any faster?
