"Pierce, wake up. I need to go home and get changed." I say, tugging on the mouse's ears to get his attention. He lightly mutters in his sleep and giggles rubbing his head into my shoulder.
"Hee hee~," he squeals with an adorably wide smile as he snuggles closer, tightening his grip around my waist. I heavily sigh and try to relax as I softly thrum his head with my fingers.
It's impossible to wake him up! I thought he was supposed to be really skittish?! I pull on his ear even harder trying to wake the mouse up. Oh come on where's your insomniac nature when I need it? He's the only one who can get me out of this little house of his because I can't remember which path he used to get us here. How can he possibly memorize so many different tunnels? It's crazy!
"Pierce, I need you to get. Up." I growl pulling on his hair. His only response is more giggling while his tail lashes back and forth, lightly wrapping around my leg. I struggle to separate myself from him and the overwhelming heat. The heater felt good until about halfway through the night before I started to sweat. I wouldn't be surprised if we are soaking in a puddle of it by now! His little mouse singing hums build up as he cuddles even closer - if that's even possible - and nibbles my shoulder with a tiny tap of the tongue here and there.
"Tee hee~ you taste good, Jackie ... ," Pierce mumbles, wrapping his arms around my neck as he kisses my shoulder. I roll my eyes and shove against his stomach.
"Get up Peirce. I still have work to do." And worst yet I don't even know what time it is. I can't tell if it's night, day, or, heck! Wonderland could have been hit with a freaking asteroid and I would be completely oblivious to it down here! He only giggles, mumbling something cutely in his sleep as his nibbling teeth travel up to the base of my neck. A shiver runs up my spine as I faintly flush, still trying to push him away.
"Pierce ... ," I start dangerously in that you-better-get-off-or-so-help-me voice. Again he lightly laughs, sliding his tongue over my sweaty neck.
"Hm~ you're salty~," he giggles as he lightly sucks on my neck. My heart begins to drive hard as he softly kisses my neck, adding a little lick here and a little suck there.
"Ew Pierce lay off! I'm not cheese!" I growl tightly gripping his ear. Pierce ignores my warnings as he rolls over so he's on top, continuing to nibble my neck as he moves up to my jaws.
"Yummy~," he dreamily sings as his chest vibrates. My blood begins to throb as his teeth grazes my jaw line making me blush. Seriously what kind of dream is this kid having?! His grip around my waist tightens so I can feel his every breath and every muscle twitch through the thin fabric. I grip his clothes and try to pry him off as he sleepily kisses my cheek. My eyes flash as I snatch hold of his tail yanking hard.
"Get off me Peirce - hmpf!" I squeak as he sucks in a fast breath and smacks his lips to my mouth silencing my outcries. I tightly grip his arms and try to push the mouse back as his hips rub against my thigh. How in the hell did he get between my legs?!
I kick the heater and hold back a growl from the insanely hot metal. The hot metal burns my foot as I flip him around and pull back. His hands tightly grip my hips refusing to let up even an inch. When the heck did this mouse get so strong?! Pierce heavily pants as his eyes crack open, sweat dripping down his face as his hands slip around my hips and tightly grasp something he never should have touched.
"Jackie ~!" He loudly whines with ears pulled back. A shiver crawls through my spine as my heart sledgehammers against my chest seeing him in such a weak state. W-What that heck is going on?! I reach down and snatch hold of his ear determined to end this and wake him up from whatever dream he's in. He immediately takes his chance, sinking his teeth into the base of my neck.
"PIERCE YOU FREAKING IDIOT WAKE UP!" I scream while twisting his ear. He shrieks and immediately retreats, slipping out from under me with surprising speed. My head snaps up, spying his tiny chest puffing in and out as he peeks behind the lamp. He tightly holds his ears as he whines in pain, tears dabbing his eyes. I stare at his suddenly humble form guilt pricking my chest. P-Peirce, don't cry ...
"W-W-W-Why did you yell at me?" He wails, falling to his knees as he grips his near bleeding ears. "That hurt! That hurt a lot!" He huddles behind the lamp to hide, his tiny quiet sobs echoing through the tiny room. I heavily sigh and catch my head. Oh my gosh are you kidding me? You attack me, make me yell at you, run and cry and then make me feel guilty? Oh man ...
"Pierce ... ," I softly begin lightly touching where be bit me. Yeah, that's going to leave a mark. I shake it off trying to deal with the problem at hand. Man this sucks. I trot over to the little ball of tears finding him in the fetal position.
I don't know whether to feel sorry for him or pissed off for biting me.
"Look, Pierce, when you touch me like that I'm going to yell at you obviously." I bluntly begin tapping him on the head.
"T-T-Touch you like what? I-I-I-I only hugged you because you were so cute!" He pouts with tears reddening his eyes.
"If you only hugged me then where did I get this from?" I sourly reply, craning my head back and hold my hair up so he can see the nice teeth marks he left in me. He stares at the mark, still clutching his ears as he gaped.
"I-I-I-I don't know! Jackie ~!" He loudly whines as the water works begin.
"H-Hey, Pierce, don't cry alright?" I never know what to do or say when someone starts crying! He tries to bravely wipe away the tears unable to cover them up.
"B-B-But you were cold and I-I wanted you to be warm and-and -!" He stutters hardly able to speak. He buries his face in his hands hiding his embarrassment from me. I hesitate, biting back my urge to punch him and tell him to man up, before wrapping my arms around him.
"Calm down Pierce, alright?" I stiffly urge, patting his back. He immediately buries his face in my shoulder trying to quiet down. His ear suddenly perks up as his head shoots up, smacking me in the jaw. "Ow!"
"Y-Your heart is broken!" He cries, terrified as he pushes his ear against my chest. I fall back and barely catch myself as he tightly grabs my waist, listening to my heart with a paling face. "I-It's beating so fast! D-Doctor! You should see a doctor!" He cries, looking around the room for something.
"NO Pierce, I don't need a doctor. I-It happens." My heart must still be racing from when he held me so tight. My face darkens with a blush as I sweep my finger across my collarbone and up my neck. T-The trail he left is still burning. I never knew he was so strong! I literally couldn't move away. That's never happened to me before. H-He was everywhere, lighting my blood up like a match as me moved around. My heart begins to throb as Pierce's head smacks into my chest again.
"I-It's going faster! P-P-Please don't break, Miss heart!" He cries as he pulls the ribbon down.
"P-Pierce, knock it off!" I cry covering up the troubling parts as he intently looks at the forbidden area.
"W-Why is it beating so fast? It must be breaking!" He cries, tightly holding my ribs as he stares at my chest as if he can figure out what's wrong by looking at it long enough.
"B-B-Because I'm really nervous and flustered!" I shout before realizing what I said. Oh man I wish I was dead ...
"Nervous? Why are you nervous chu~?" He asks still never lighting up on his insanely tight grasp on my ribs. My heart pounds as his fingers twitch, suddenly conscious of his every movement over my skin, his every breath over my collarbone.
"Because you're too close!" He looks up, puzzled as I madly flush. Does he really not get what he's touching right now?!
"Too close? Too close to what?" He asks, sincerely puzzled. Is he really this stupid?!
"E-Everything!" I shout, shoving him off. He rolls back in a heap before hopping to his feet without a problem. His ears pull down in confusion as he tilts his head, tears budding in his eyes.
"W-W-What's wrong? I don't get it -!" He almost starts to cry again before I stand up, brushing myself off.
"It's fine. Just forget about it. Take me home, Pierce." I huff, avoiding eye contact before I turn to leave.
"Are you mad? Please don't be mad! You're the only one I love so please don't be mad!" He darts forward and wraps his arms around my stomach holding me flush against him. I heavily sigh and rub his hands trying to ease him off. Love, huh? My heart does little flips from the word before I silence it. It's not that kind of love.
"I'm not mad."
"Yes you are!" He cries seeing through my terrible facade. I lean back, forcing him to take more of my weight to encourage him to let go as a new tactic. His grip only tightens as he rubs his head into my shoulder blade, his little rising tunes drifting out of his throat.
"I ... I don't want you to be mad. I want you to be happy." He mutters. I look back spying the top of his head as he refuses to make eye contact.
"Yeah?" I say, unable to come up with anything sweeter to say.
"Jackie, I don't know if you've noticed but it made me really, really happy having you down here with me. Normally I'm all by myself. So, promise me," he hesitates before gulping, deciding on it and going through with it, "that you'll sleep over more often?" He cutely asks as he unleashes his full power with the big wide eyes and even the jutted lip. I heavily groan and crane my head back. Who the heck has the willpower to say no to that kind of face?
"FINE." I reluctantly agree.
"Yay!"
"But on one condition." I growl making his cheers suddenly stop as he intently listens. "The only place I'll sleep over with you is the one you have beneath my house. And you have to show me how to get in and out so I don't get stuck down there."
"Ok!" He cries as he tightly hugs me. "I'm so happy! So happy! Thank you Jackie!" I huff and rub his head making him delightfully hum. So cute~
"Good. Now take me back to my house alright?"
