"I can tell you look uncomfortable," Tori observed sympathetically.

Freddy nearly jumped out of his fur and clothes at the sound of Tori's sensuous voice.

"Oh...um heheh...I...um...um...*gulp*i-is it h-hot in here t-to y-y-you? O-or i-is it j-j-just m-me?" Freddy asked nervously, pulling on his red polo shirt collar. Steam literally rising out of the ferret's shirt collar.

Tori couldn't help but giggle some. Freddy was so cute either way if he was acting charming or being nervous.

The attractive mink smiled coyly, and decided to tease Freddy some more before really going in for the kill.

"You know Freddy, you really don't have any reason to be nervous around me," Tori explained in a soft, feathery voice.

"I-I d-don't?" stammered Freddy.

Shaking her head "No", Tori drew her bar stool even closer to Freddy; closing off all personal space between the mink and ferret.

Freddy was sweating bullets by now as Tori traced her finger up and down his left arm; sending chills up the ferret's spine(both in a nervous way and good way).

"No. Not at all. In fact...," the flirtatious mink purposely trailed off to leave Freddy guessing.

"What!? What!?" Freddy asked, frantically.

Another coy smile crept upon Tori's muzzle as she inched her face closer to Freddy's.

"I think...I'm starting to like you...even more," explained Tori in a pillowey whisper.

Freddy swallowed a hard lump in his throat, asking in a cracked voice, "Y-you a-are?"

Nodding, Tori gently stroked Freddy's cheek, which was a brilliant red now, and brought his muzzle towards her own. Their lips just centimeters apart from each other and both could feel the warm, gentle breath of each other breathing in and out.

Tori was completely calm and collected. Her eyes were closed and she had a small pink blush across her cheeks as her lips were near Freddy's.

Freddy though was the complete opposite. His eyes were wide open and they were big as dinner plates and his pupils were constricted. He was now pouring sweat from head to tail, trembling quite a bit. And his heart rate was through the roof.

That's when an unfamiliar voice was heard, "Tori?"

Tori became rigid and stiff. She knew that voice all to well. Mark. Her ex boyfriend.

She gently pulled away from Freddy and gave the neurotic ferret an apologetic look and found her asshole ex and his nineteen year old girlfriend in front of them.

"Hello Mark. Hello Julie," Tori stiffly greeted the couple before them.

"Hi Tori," Julie greeted with what actually seemed to be sincerity towards Tori, despite being Tori's ex's girlfriend.

Julie was of course nineteen years old. She was a calico cat with beautiful fur and a nice figure to match. She wasn't tiny but more petite. She had one green eye and one blue eye. She was wearing a pale blue party dress and a silver clutch to go with it. She was drinking a peach schnobz.

"Long time, no see huh Tori?" asked Mark rather cockily.

Mark was 25 years old but immature for his age. He was a lynx cat and a good looking one at that. But of course he knew it. He was wearing a dark red t-shirt with a black leather jacket over it. He also had black camo pants on to match the ensemble. Wow cocky douchebag much? He was drinking a beer.

"Yeah, long time no see Mark," came the brittle reply from Tori.

"Mind if we join you?" Mark asked not paying any attention to Freddy or the moment Tori was trying to have with Freddy.

"Yes," seethed Tori, rage consuming her entire being.

"Um Mark maybe we should leave them alone. Maybe we were interrupting them," Julie advised sympathetically.

Mark waved it off and said, " Aw c'mon babe, it probably wasn't that important anyway. I'm sure Tori really wants us to sit with her. Don't you Tori?"

If looks could kill, Mark would be dead soon enough because Tori's look read, "I'm going to rip you to shreds!"

But all the mink came up with was a harsh, "No! Get lost dickwad!"

Mark just rolled his eyes and sighed loudly and annoyingly, "You're still mad about that whole thing? Geeze get over it already Tori."

Tori looked like she was going to go full nuclear on Mark now. He really was pushing the envelope now with her.

Julie glared at Mark, saying, "Jesus Mark, could you really be more of an asshole? Especially right now?"

Mark shrugged, acting like he did nothing wrong, saying, "What she's the one who can't let it go."

Julie was now getting pretty upset with her boyfriend too. "Not if YOU keep bringing that sort of thing up!"

Mark took a long sip of his beer and replied coolly, "Hey, my business is my business. I'm your ride home tonight remember?"

Julie glared at him and finally stated, "Then I guess I'll walk home then. And FYI, look for yourself another girlfriend. I'm done with you douchewad."

This shocked Tori, Freddy and Mark altogether. Mainly Mark.

" H-hey c'mon babe, I-I honestly didn't mean anything by i-it. C'mon please?" pleaded Mark pathetically.

"Drop dead!" Julie yelled, not looking over her shoulder.

"Fine! Who needs a bitch like you anyway! And FYI you were lousy in bed!" Mark yelled as Julie left.
