Mungojerrie ran as quickly as he could back to Victoria grove, he knew he was back a lot later than he said since it was almost pitch black outside. He went through the cat flap and was met with silence. He looked around for his mate who was most likely sleeping and he quickly found her asleep in their bed. He gently lied down next to her and nuzzled against her head. Teazer woke up after sensing Jerrie's presence "why are you back so late?" She asked tiredly. Jerrie had to quickly make up a lie which he was luckily good at "I was hunting for mice but I guess I got a bit carried away" he replied and teazer nodded in acknowledgment. "I love you Jer" she whispered as she laid close to him and as teazer fell asleep again Jerrie replied with a yawn "I love you too Teaz" and he also fell into a deep slumber.
The two cats were awoken the next morning by one of their owners, a little girl who loved the pair dearly. The little girl picked Rumpleteazer up and kissed her forehead. Teazer purred at the affection despite her slight annoyance at being woke up. "Who have you got there Ellie?" One of the parents asked and she replied with a smile "Rainbow". Jerrie and teazer hated the names their owners gave to them but they just had to live with it. "Looks like rainbow is getting a little chubby" one of the parents said as they pointed to her slightly grown stomach. Rumpleteazer hissed and released herself from the little girls grip and ran back to Jerrie. "Looks like she wasn't very happy about that comment" one parent laughed and the other hurried the little girl downstairs for Breakfast.
"Jerrie? Be honest, does it look like I've gained weight to you?" She asked feeling self conscious about the excess weight. Jerrie looked and he was honest with her "maybe a little bit but you have been staying in the house a lot ever since—" but Mungojerrie was cut off. "Yes I know, I don't need reminding" she said with a hint of pain in her voice. Mungojerrie could sense that he had hurt the calico queen and he knew he needed to work on how to approach that topic with her. The queen sighed "anyways I'm going to take a nap" and she disappeared upstairs.
He pondered for a few moments but then Mungojerrie proceeded to run out of the cat flap before Teazer noticed he was gone. "Mungojerrie, what took you so long?" the Napoleon of crime asked which caused Jerrie to tremble a bit. "The family was around and T-Teazer was close by so I couldn't leave straight away" he said and the ginger cat nodded and Jerrie crept away slowly hoping he was done with him.
