*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The black tom opened his eyes slightly, something was wrong. Tugger was trying to lift something.
Up above the heavens still poured heavy rain down on the two cats. Infact if it was possible the rain came down even harder. Mistoffelees shivered from the cold rain curling into a light ball. Finally Tugger got the trunk open and quickly picked the black tom up cradling him in his arms as he climbed in. Now he was able to survey his new lover.
Mud and blood had caked itself on Misto's face and fur. Tugger stared at his lover trying to figure out where the blood was coming from. He couldn't find any cuts or scrapes. Sighing Tugger leaned down and started to lick the mud off Mistoffelees' face. Mistoffelees gasped as the warm tongue lapped up all the mud cleaning his face to where it was pure white again. Tugger turned his head to the side spitting mud from his mouth then traveled downwards and began cleaning Misto's chest fur.
After an hour or two Mistoffelees was once again clean. "Mistoffelees...?" Tugger whispered, "I'm all done."
Slowly Misto opened his eyes. "Thanks." He replied hoarsely, "Why did you come to get me?" ::I didn't think you even cared.:: He'd figure he'd be found tommorrow when Munkustrap sent out a search party. After all the kittens would get bored without their magician.
"Why? You could have died out here. Look at you," Tugger exclaimed putting a paw to the black tom's forehead, "You're already burning with fever."
Darn it. Now he was sick as well as hurt. Guess he'd have to conjure up a healing spell. Weakly Mistoffelees tried to sit up but his arms gave out and fell back down. Alright, he slurred to himself, maybe later. "Tug?"
"Yes?" The maine coone's eyes softened to a level that no one had seen before as he answered the other cat.
"Do you really love me?"
Hadn't they been over this already? Tugger then stopped himself, Misto was ill. He probably didn't even remember much. "Yes, my lovely Tom. I do. Now rest. I won't leave you."
"N...No.." Misto grabbed Tugger's paw and held it tight, "Lay with me." Tugger gave in a found himself on the floor of the trunk with Mistoffelees curled next to him. The flirt wrapped an arm around the smaller tom's frame pulling him closer. "mmm...my..my Tugger.."
*~*
"Munk, Tug hasn't come back."
Munkustrap looked up and saw Bombalurina standing in the door of the box. "What?" Worriedly he stood walking over to the red queen. "Has Mistoffelees?"
"No. Munk, we have to go looking for them!" Bomba pleaded grabbing onto the Tabby's arm. "They could be hurt!!!"
"Bomba, I don't think they are hurt. I have this feeling that Tugger found Mistoffelees. If that is case then we shall see them tomorrow. If not then by lunch we'll be other looking for both."
The red Queen saw she wasn't going to win this fight and sighed, "Fine. We'll do it your way."
*~*
Tugger awoke later that night to being very hot. He sat up wiping sweat off his right side. What in the world was so hot? Then his stomach started churning. Mistoffelees had a fever earlier. Had the fever gone up? "Misto?" He whispered.
The young Tom didn't moan or groan. He just laid there still in a deep sleep. Tugger's eyes narrowed and fear gripped his heart. Touching Misto's face told him everything he hadn't wanted to be true. "Oh no. Misto!!" He shouted a bit louder.
Tugger had to bring Mistoffelees' fever down. Before..Before he died. NO!! Tugger shouted to himself, his lover was not going to die. Quickly but gently the main coon gathered the black Tom in his arms and carried him out into the rain.
The rain was cold to Tugger but he knew that this was the only way to bring down Misto's fever.
Rudely Misto was awoken by someone just throwing water on him. Who in their right mind would through water on a cat? That was just mean. Plain mean. "STOP THROWING WATER ON ME!!"
The water didn't stop and Mistoffelees hissed, that's it, who ever it was they just earned themselves a lightening bolt to the butt free of charge.
"Hey hey!! Calm down. I have to bring down your fever."
Fever? Then it all came back to him. That's right. They were stuck outside and he was sick. So who was holding him? The scent…it smelled like Tugger. Why would Tugger be holding him? Then he remembered that also. They were in love. They had professed their love to one another.
"You alright there, now?" Tugger asked, "Sorry about scaring you but you scared me."
"We going back?" He asked softly.
"Maybe. I want to make sure you aren't seriously injured. If I don't find it then Jenny or Jelly definitely will and you know what will happen next."
Misto made a face, he'd much rather Tugger find them then those old cats. Jenny and Jelly were both very nice cats but were also very annoying when it came to healing a cat. He was not going to be stuck in the box with those two hovering over him. He'd never get well. Not only that but their medicine wasn't the greatest tasting stuff either.
"That's what I thought." Tugger chuckled, "I'm sure we could go back and let you have some of their wonderful concoctions."
"No thank you."
"Well we'll have to go back soon but for right now rest here while I go find some breakfast, kay?"
"Yeh, yeh." Misto felt himself be laid back down on their makeshift bed then watched as Tugger left. He was alone again, he used to love being alone, now however he didn't like it as much. Oh well….nap time. The conjuring cat chuckled to himself, "I might actually get a nap in without being disturbed this time, what a laugh."
