KITTY LOVE
PART 2
Something tickled at Heero-neko's acute nose as he woke. He raised his head and looked around. The window was open and sun was shining through the thin blue curtains. He sniffed at the delicious aroma that hung in the air: Eggs. Jumping off the bed he made a slow trot into the kitchen. Relena was sitting at the table holding a glass of milk in one hand and some print-outs that must have been from the computer in the other. Heero-neko walked over and jumped on the table.
Relena looked up and smiled. "Good morning Heero!"
He looked at her, and then eyed her eggs hungrily. There was one left.
Relena giggled and slid her plate over to him. "Here, I made an extra one just for you. I figured that if you like oranges, you have to like eggs."
Heero-neko pounced on the plate, wiping the egg from existence in a matter of seconds. Licking his lips he lied down, batting the plate away with his paw. Relena smiled and got up, walking to the fridge and getting out the milk. Afterwards she went to get a small bowl from the cupboard. Heero-neko watched her as she poured the milk and brought it over to him.
"Here," she said as she traded the bowl in for the plate, then returned to the sink. Heero-neko looked down at the bowl as if he didn't know what to do with it, but soon he gave in to his instincts and lapped out of it.
Relena smiled as she heard him finally drink from the bowl. /It's almost as if he isn't a cat at all. With the way technology is now-a-days, I wouldn't be surprised if it was Heero himself.../ She froze before shaking her head. /Don't be stupid, Relena. That can't be Heero. He's probably off somewhere destroying a base to make it easier for the others./
"Mrow." Heero-neko said as he jumped on the cabinet behind Relena, an empty bowl hanging from his mouth.
Relena grinned. "That was fast, you sure are hungry."
"Meow!"
"Do you want some more milk?"
"Meow!!" He exclaimed nodding his head vigorously.
"Alright, alright!" Relena laughed as she took the bowl from his mouth and fetched the milk.
Heero-neko watched her, his eyes never moving from her body. Then he shook his head before she brought him the milk.
Relena set the bowl down and propped her head up with her elbow once more as she watched her new cat drink. She grinned as he jerked away when she tried to stroke his fur.
When Heero-neko finished he pushed the bowl away with his paw and lied down satisfied, licking his whickers with his tongue ever few mintues.
Relena smiled once more before sitting down at her computer and logging into the Sanc's Instant Messenger.
"~Good morning Relena!~" Quatre wrote. "~How are you feeling today?~"
"~Just fine. Guess what, I've just been adopted by an alley cat last night.~"
"~Really? Doesn't it have an owner?~"
"~No, he doesn't.~"
"~Really?! What did you name him?~"
"~Promise not to freak out?~"
"~Promise. But why would I?~"
"~Because I named him 'Heero'.~"
"~'HEERO!!!' Have you gone insane?! Heero'll never talk to you now!!~"
"~Tell the cat that! I tried every name that I could think of, and that one was an accident. He really liked it, though.~"
"~Well, what does he look like?~"
"~Okay, think of an alley cat. Now think of a very well built cat. Then imagine that he has dark brown, slightly groomed though messed up, fur and VERY intense blue eyes. If it would help, they're exactly like Heero's. Now add intelligence and acrobatic skill, since I saw with my own eyes him do a flip, and I do mean a flip, in the air from one cabinet to another on the other side of the kitchen and land gracefully like he only hopped. And there you go. Plus I think he opened my back door since that was how he got in my house.~"
"~That sounded exactly like a cat version of Heero. The name fits. Why did he go into your house?~"
"~It's a very long and complicated story.~" She wasn't about to spill her whole secret. "Listen, speaking of Heero, have you heard anything?~"
"~No, not yet. And to tell you the truth, I beginning to get very worried.~"
Heero-neko jumped onto the computer desk and stared at the screen, like he was trying to read it. Relena smiled and answered Quatre. "~You're not the only one. And it looks like I have a spy in my house.~"
"~WHAT?!?!?!?~"
"~Nononononono! Not like that! I mean Heero here, the cat, is actually reading this entire conversation. Freaky huh?~"
"~Yeah. Don't you ever scare me like that again, you nearly scared me half to death.~"
"~Yeah, that's what happened to me last night when this cat showed up. Listen, if you here anything about our Heero, tell me please. I would like to know where he is. I need to talk to him as soon as possible.~"
"~I'll do my best. Out.~"
Heero-neko watched as the computer screen blanked out and Relena headed back to her bedroom. This was going to be very hard on both of them.
