Mittens' POV

Bolt and I had been lying in the soft green grass now for probably close to an hour or so. Just lying here, not even talking and for some reason I couldn't think of any way that could make my any happier. The air smelt sweet, I think of maybe the strawberries Penny's neighbour was growing. I was closer to the dog than when we started I think. I was pressing against his warm furry chest and my eyes just didn't seem to want to open, they protested every time I tried. Maybe for the best though, with my eyes closed I could really focus on how I felt. As we lay there alone, the wind blew around us softly and slowly, sending small electric chills down my spine every couple minutes. But whenever this happened Bolt would notice and instantly rub my back. He was being so.. Gentlemanly, I'd never seen Bolt like this before!

It was probably another few more minutes of this, the two of us just lying in silence and I started to think back over what I knew. I let out a long sigh and opened my eyes slowly, a bit as the fur on the big dog's neck moved from the wind and he shivered. I wish it was warmer out… In the last hour we didn't really say very much… We just kind of laid there in the grass. Bolt is really warm, and I tried getting a tiny bit closer to get his warmth without him noticing. I didn't want the dog's ego growing, that's the last thing any dog should have. But I wanted to get closer before we had to go in, it just felt really nice. At first I thought it was wrong though, I mean how many cats end up laying on a dog's chest trying to get as close to him as they can without the dog noticing what they were trying and freaking out? Bolt especially, he seems so innocent but I'm sure if he knew what I felt he'd freak out... He had said the word 'friends' so many times.. Is it bad that I felt like I wanted more?

After a while though, I decided it doesn't matter what everyone else says. Or what absolutely anyone thinks. Even if he didn't know how I felt I enjoyed being with my big white dog and there isn't anything that anyone can do about it. Except Bolt.. if he ever found out.. But sadly I only got a few more minutes of this heaven before Penney called us in for dinner.

"Bolt, Mittens!" She yelled from the front door excitedly as usual. "Come on in, it's time for dinner! Hurry up!" Penny waited a few seconds, but then called to us again "Come on, you don't want your food to go stale do you? Silly animals," Bolt sighed softly into the hair on top of my head as I looked up at his big round eyes. He obviously wanted to stay as bad as I did, but probably for a different reason. Knowing Bolt he probably just thought it was warm so it was good, dogs are so simple-minded and childish. But at the same time, sometimes he could be super intelligent! He had surprised me more than once on our travels together.

I waited a few more long seconds, and then finally rolled off of Bolt's chest out of his strong arms into the grass beside him and I instantly felt cold once again. I already missed the grip of the dog.. But shaking my head I got up onto my legs trying to shake it off. I looked down at the white dog still just lying in the grass and said "Come on, let's go Bolt; we don't want to get Penny mad at us for not coming." I brought a paw up to me lips, licking it before grooming myself a bit.

Bolt laughed happily as he leaned his upper body up a little closer to me and replied softly "Penny would never be mad at me, cat. And since you're with me you have nothing to worry about Mittens, we can nap a couple more minutes… I mean, if you want." He was now very close, and staring into my eyes with his own huge orbs of eyes.. his offer was tempting…

"N-No, Bolt we have to go eat now. I don't want my food going stale. But feel free to stay out here and wait" with that I winked at him and turned to start walking to the stairs leading to the front porch. 'Did I just wink at Bolt?.. what's getting into me?' Once I reached the stairs I leaped up and looked back to see that the white Dog was following me sleepily. "But.." I said quietly to myself as Bolt got closer. Still out of hearing range hopefully. "Maybe I'll take you up on that nap later.." He got closer, his ears perking up as I finished.

The big dog got up the stairs too and followed really close behind me, I could almost feel his warm comforting breath on my neck again and I liked it.. "Sorry, I didn't hear what you said there. What was that Mittens?"

I simply shook my head as I went through the pet door installed in the person door saying "Nothing, sorry. Don't worry 'bout it Bolt." And continued down the long hall towards the kitchen. Stopping, I turned to look into the living room on my way down the hall with Bolt still close behind me to see Penny walking over to Rhino. The brown hamster was watching some loud T.V. show and Penny placed down a small bowl of hamster food beside him. Rhino kept his eyes glued to the screen as he saluted her puffing out his chest and he instantly grabbed a handful quickly shoving it into his mouth causing his cheeks to puff out. Does he ever leave that couch?

Bolt ran up to Penny happily when she turned to see us and he softly rubbed against her leg like he always did when he saw her. I know that that's just Bolt's way of greeting his person, but… I couldn't help but feel a little bit jealous of her. I wanted him to myself, but it's not like the dog was mine or anything. He just thought of me as his friend. I'm sure his person is more important than his friend.

"Come on Bolt, it's time to eat" I said wanting to take his attention away as I walked over to our food bowls. I examined the mushy cat food before taking a bite, hoping it was what I thought it was. My favourite! Apparently it's called salmon. Penny and Bolt came over a couple seconds later, and the first bent down so that she could reach a hand out and rub my head saying "You and Bolt are just so cute together Mittens," Then she stood up and watched us for a second before she walked away to go sit on the couth to watch TV by Rhino.

I watched Penny walk away but didn't notice Bolt inching closer to me as I turned to continue to eat. Suddenly I heard his voice pretty quiet but clear from right beside me as the dog whispered "She's right you know Mitts." I jumped back not expecting him so close to me, and the big white dog laughed before turning to his food, starting to munch on it happily.

I lost my breath, panting a bit as Bolt pretended it never happened. I shook my head out of it, moving to take bites out of my salmon. After we were both finished eating, I decided that maybe I should go take a nap or something. It's been a long day, and a nice quick nap would be heavenly about now. Even after my amazing sleep last night! Without even saying bye to Bolt, who had gone and jumped up onto the couch with Penny resting his head in her lap, I turned to start walking down the hall to Penny's bedroom. I got a weird feeling in my chest watching the dog, and was a bit scared as to what it was.

"Where are ya going cat?" Rhino called stopping to turn I saw him actually off the couch for once! He was holding a bag of microwaveable popcorn, standing up on the counter. Wow, how'd he get there so fast? However, after taking a few seconds to think of how he possibly got up there I shook my head and smiled sleepily. "Oh, I'm just going to get some rest. Long day, y'know?" I said and Rhino nodded. He turned to pop the bag into the microwave and jump, trying to punch the buttons.

I walked down the long hallway to Penny's room slowly, and used my nose to push open the door. I continued in and jumped up onto the nice soft bed, nuzzling against a pillow. "Time to review over what's happened in the last two days." I said to myself quietly, thinking back once again. First, Bolt comforted me last night after I found him awake at around two. I asked what was wrong and he just said he couldn't sleep.

Bolt then asked what was wrong with me and after not responding for a bit he somehow ended up holding me close. I tried to struggle for a few seconds but he wouldn't let me and I fell asleep eventually. And I had eleven hours of sleep! I haven't had that much sleep since… Well, since I was kicked out by my previous owner Jessica and began living on the streets… Jessica.. I hope I never see her again. But Why would I, I'm living with Bolt now!

Then today, I was playing with the dog for hours on end! He never seemed to get tired of playing with me, and I never got tired of him. At first I thought that playing fetch would be really stupid but it wasn't that bad. And the dog's goofy grin got me every time. And then Penny got home. After seeing the photo Penny took, I froze up. It was just… I liked it so much but I knew I shouldn't. When Bolt found out I froze because I liked the picture, he tackled me. Which was a big supprise.

I ended up on top of him, and this time I didn't struggle. All I could think about was how we shouldn't be doing that, but I liked it and couldn't bring myself to push off of him. But why? Do I…? Do I really love a dog? I can't, that's not right! And besides, there is no way he would feel the same way about me so I should just forget about it right? It would be better for all of us if I ignored my stupid feelings. Being a girl sucks… Why did that stupid dog have to find me. And Save me.. he saved my life.

I was halfway was through processing all of my thoughts trying to figure out what to make of it when I felt an arm around my waist suddenly. I flinched for a second, but then looking up I saw my Bolt again. 'My Bolt? Did I just think that?' Looking into his big round eyes, I knew my feeling were true. There was no point doubting them, I knew that I was in love with the big white dog. Everything about him. His appearance, the way he acted, his personality, how stupid he could be but at the same time how caring he always was... I was falling for a dog. Why a dog of all species? We were supposed to be opposites! Bolt was looking down at me with a worried look on his face, and softly he asked me. "Are you okay Mittens?"

"W-What?" I asked the Dog, not actually having heard what he had said with how deep in my thoughts I was, and I wasn't really even close to getting over the shock of my feelings yet. Bolt continued, knowing he had my attention this time and he said "Well you just left without telling me where you were going, so I was worried about you." He relaxed the arm around my waist a bit seeming to just have it lightly rest on me comfortably, and protectively.

After a second of processing what Bolt had said I asked tentatively, "You were… worried about me Bolt? Really?" He smiled and nodded, looking at me happily. But I continued, saying "But I don't have to always tell you where I'm going!" I finished, then realized how harshly I'd said it. 'What's wrong with me?..'

He frowned a second, then said "Wel we were just playing all day so I thought you'd want to stay close.. And of course I was worried about you Mittens. So.. are you okay? What's up?" Bolt leaned a tiny closer to me and licked my cheek softly. His tongue was warm…

I was stunned for a second but shook it off trying not to react to him licking me before saying quickly and a bit nervously "Um, don't worry Bolt I'm fine trust me. I was just thinking of lying down for a bit maybe, it's been a really long day and I'm exhausted haha..." I brought my clawless paw up in front of me, trying to look at it and not at the dog. But it didn't work so well, the second he went to talk I involuntarily looked up into his big eyes.

Bolt smiled, replying "Well that's good to hear Mittens, I'm glad that you're okay! So, would you mind if I joined you?" I shook my head, allowing the dog to move closer and pull me tight into him. I looked down a bit, seeing the dog's tempting warm neck. It's time to tell him.. if he rejects me he rejects me, but I can't just wait like this! "Hey, uhm.. Bolt?" I asked quietly not sure if he could even hear me as I tried to build up all the courage I had. My head began to slowly inch its way towards his neck, knowing that's where I'd hide after.

"Yes?" Bolt asked looking down at me obviously confused. But as hard as I tried, I couldn't get the words out of my mouth, just three simple words! In any other arrangement, split into separate sentences it would be easy. But just those three words, to Bolt were impossible to say. Bolt waited for a second, and then continued asking "Are you okay Mittens? You look scared, listen don't worry about it okay? No matter what you say I'm not going to look down on you or anything. You'll still be the cat that got me back home. The cat that will always be unconditionally my friend, I promise!"

Friend.. Is that still really all he thinks of me? But I decided that I've waited long enough and after swallowing my fear I spoke softly "I… I think I love you Bolt!" and after that I quickly moved to burry my face into the dog's fluffy neck. Even after thinking I had the confidence to do it, I didn't want to see his reaction. Disappointment, confusion, fear, annoyance.. Which would it be? Maybe he wouldn't be mad.. Maybe he'd be okay with it and just not return the feelings? At least then we could still be friends.. I didn't want to lose my Dog.

How long had it been now? Ten seconds? A minute? An hour? The dogs arm was still around me, but it didn't feel like I had thought, it wasn't frozen, or moving away. His arm started to move up and down on my back slowly, and my eyes began to tear up a bit. He was trying to comfort me.. He felt bad for me, he couldn't return the feelings. A tear fell into the fur on my cheek as I started to cry, burying my face deeper into Bolt's neck. But with what I heard next, I was obviously mistaken. "Mittens" Came his soft and relaxing voice. The voce I had come to be addicted to. "I," There was a slight pause and I could feel my heart stop and a few more tears rolled down my cheeks. "I love you too Mittens"

"It's okay Bolt, I understand.. Will we still be frien- Wait… What?.." I pulled my head back out of the dog's neck to look him in the eyes and he was smiling down at me. "I said," Came the dog's angelic voice. "I love you too Mittens"

My eyes swelled up with tears, and I instantly buried my head back into his warm, soft neck and cried. And for the first time in my life, they were tears of joy.
