When I woke up from this wonderful dream with Misto and The Jellicle Ball and (I Think) The Mating Dance, I saw a figure looming over me.

I screamed loudly, only to be silenced by Misto.

His eyes looked red, either from a lack of sleep or crying, but his face lightened up when I smiled.

I loved seeing Misto.

It was as if a dark cloud had been taken away from my life, yet more pain was added.

He would never like me as I liked him.

It's impossible!

"You gave me quite a scare at that meeting," he said.

I had to think up a lie.

"Oh, you know me! Never getting enough sleep! It had to catch up with me sometime," I lied, which I instantly felt bad for.

I hung my head in shame.

He tilted my head up, and looked deep into my eyes.

"Ok," he said, "Now, tell me the real reason."

I sighed.

Oh, what do I tell him.

'Oh! Hey! Misto! Yeah I was upset because I was paired with Tumble and he hates me and I think I'm in love with another tom."?

Yeah, I'll tell him that.

"Yeah I was upset because I was paired with Tumble and he hates me and I think I'm in love with another tom," I said.

Misto's eyes looked as if they were about to cry, when he asked, quite demandingly, "Who?"

I placed my finger over his mouth, and said, "Shh!"

When I placed my hand back, he fell to the floor.

"Misto!" I screamed, rather worried.

Rather?

More like Mega-Extremely-UBER worried!

Well, he must've had a hard day.

I looked out of the window realizing that it was the same time of day as the meeting.

I must've only been alseep for thirty minutes tops.

Just then, Mom opened the door.

"Etcy! Explain to me why Misto dragged you here twenty-four hours ago, knocked out," she said.

I looked up at Mom.

"Oh, just something Old D said," I said, "It freaked me out."

Jelly looked at me like I was crazy.

"The who Tumble thing? Aren't you just so happy I arranged for you two to be together! You two are so cute together. Someday, you'll be mates! I just know it," Mom, or Jelly exclaimed, while leaving my room.

Gosh, I thought, I hate her! Wait........................... 24 hours? He'd been keeping vigil over me for 24 HOURS!?!? That's dedicated friendship.............Friendship..........
