They all looked over at the door as it opened, revealing a man with a thick coat and gloves, after he took them off, he heavily resembled Misto, which surprised them all. Andrew, however, smiled and went over to him, "Jacob! So lovely to see you." he said with a smile, in which Jacob returned, "Nice to see you too, Andrew, nice place you chose out." Jacob said, and looked around and then noticed The Jellicles, he widened his eyes, "AAH!" he screamed, jumping back, "AAH!" the Jellicles screamed back, Munkustrap getting in front of them, "W-Who are they?!" Jacob asked Andrew, who simply smiled again, "Jacob, Jellicles. Jellicles, Jacob." Andrew said, as if introducing two normal people.
"Jellicles? they exist?" Jacob asked in shock, as they had a small stare off, Andrew nodded and looked at Misto, "Mistoffelees, come here please." Andrew said, the tuxedo cat slowly went up to them and was amazed at how much Jacob looked like him, excluding the fur, whiskers, ears and tail, "Jacob, this is the cat you will be portraying in the show, Mr. Mistoffelees." Andrew said, Mistoffelees smiled shyly and slowly held up his paw, "Pleasure." he said kindly, Jacob hesitated a bit before taking his paw, feeling the smooth, silky fur, that's when he noticed something else.
"Uh, you're...?" Jacob asked, eyeing his stomach which made Misto's smile a bit bigger, "Pregnant?" he asked, rubbing his stomach with the other paw, "Uh, how's that-?" Jacob asked before Misto answered, "We think my magic had something to do with it." he said, Jacob merely nodded and took a seat on one of the couches, just then the door opened again.
A woman with a thick coat, a hat and gloves came in, she took the snow covered hat off, and hung the coat up on a hook, next to Jacob's, and put the gloves on a table, "Hello Andrew." she said, not noticing the Jellicles just yet, "Hello, my dear Aeva!" he smiled, politely kissing her hand, she smiled and then noticed the Jellicles, "AAH!" she screamed, jumping behind Andrew, "AAH!" the Jellicles screamed back, this time, Admetus fainted dramatically.
"A-Andrew, who are they?!" Aeva asked, obviously scared out of her mind, "Jellices." Andrew said, "Jellicles? they-?" Aeva asked, before Jacob cut in, "Exist? I asked the same thing." he said, Aeva slowly nodded and Andrew looked at them again, "Demeter, come forward please." he said.
Demeter looked at her mate, unsure or not if she should, it wasn't that she disrespected Andrew but she was nervous around humans, especially ones she barely knew, Munkustrap gave her a loving nuzzle and gently pushed her to them, she slowly went up to them, eyeing her human counterpart, "Aeva, this is Demeter, you'll be portraying her in the show." Andrew said, both Jellicle and human nervously took each other's hand/paw, and slowly shook, "P-pleasure..." Aeva said, Demeter simply nodded and ran back to her mate.
Just then, the door opened again (Geez, you'd think I'd have them all arrive at once...) and revealed a man that looked like Tugger, he took off his coat, "John!" Andrew said happily, "Hey, Andrew!" John said with a wave and, you guessed it, saw the Jellicles, "AAH!" he screamed, "AAH!" the Jellicles screamed back, at this point, Tugger was getting annoyed with all the screaming, "Ok, are we just gonna scream back whenever one of the humans screams?!" he asked.
"Well, it does get annoying after awhile..." Munkustrap agreed with his younger brother, "But it's fun!" Jemima piped up, tail wagging happily. Tugger just smiled at his niece before ruffling her headfur, making her giggle.
After awhile more humans were showing up, they would all scream and Jemima would scream back while giggling (all the other Jellicles stopped but decided to let the youngest have her fun), Andrew introduced them to their human counterparts, all except Elina, who was still confused on why these 'cats' looked like her, but every time she opened her mouth to ask her parents, another one would enter.
"I think we're still expecting one more." Andrew said, they all nodded and talked with some of the cats, right when Elina opened her mouth to speak, the door opened one last time and this time, Elina looked to see who it was.
It was a boy around her age with black hair, gleaming green eyes and a serious look, for some reason this one...entranced Elina, she had wide eyes and her closed a bit, and she blinked a few times to see if he was real, "Ah, Bryn!" Andrew smiled, the boy now known as Bryn simply nodded to Andrew, obviously not interested in talking at the moment, Plato knew it was his turn to meet his counterpart and stood up and walked over before Andrew even asked him to, "Plato, this is Bryn, your human actor." Andrew said, smiling at the young Jellicle's enthusiasm, Plato smiled shyly, "Hello." he said shyly, "Yo." Bryn said, with no emotion traced in his voice whatsoever, making Plato a bit disappointed.
Elina watched the young boy with interest, there was just something about him that drew her to him, she wanted to-no...she NEEDED to talk to him, get to know him.
"Elina..." Tantomile said, interrupting her daughter's thoughts, "We need to talk."
ok, I was a bit repetitive in this chapter and I apologize, but I wanted to get this chapter done ASAP.
Also, is love blooming for Elina? why is she so interested in this Bryn guy?
R&R please!
