Apollo watched his sister pace back and forth, back and forth; he couldn't tell what was wrong. Finally she came to a halt in front of him, with a single glare Jemima relayed what she was thinking, he should have gotten the kitten. "You should have gotten her! Now Macavity has her! Everything you do is wrong! Why can't you do anything right?" She held up her paw when Apollo tried to say something, "No, just stop! Just stop!" After looking at her for a minute Apollo just walked away.
Diddlepaws stared at her younger sister; there was no way they were twins. After a minute or two she turned her head in disgust, why couldn't Diddledee be normal and have an interest in toms like normal queens? Suddenly she turned back, "What did he look like?"
"What did who look like?" Diddledee asked.
Diddlepaws rolled her eyes, "the kitten who was with the tom who attacked Macavity!"
"Oh...he was silver with black tuffs," Diddledee told her sister.
"Was he cute? What was his name? Where does he live?" Diddlepaws pored on her questions in rapid succession.
"I don't know, Apollo, I don't know," Diddledee answered her sister's questions.
"You don't know if he's cute? How could you not know if he was cute?!" Diddlepaws screeched.
"Girls! Please, your father and I are trying to talk!" Tittleso told them in her calm but serious voice. When they nodded she walked back to her mate.
"It was unnerving," Macavity told her, "when I saw my brother, my perfect brother who never fights with anyone attacking me! Why?"
"Why did he attack you or why did he-"but Macavity cut her off.
"Of course why did he attack me!" Macavity hissed, but his expression softened when he saw that she was trembling. Macavity pulled Tittleso against him, "Shh...I'm sorry," he purred, and he continued to purr until the soothing sound put her to sleep. "I'm sorry," he whispered to the sleep-softened face of his mate.
With a serene calmness Munkustrap licked his mate's ear. Curled around eachother all events from the day fell away from the tired pair. Demeter licked Munkustrap's nose in answer. Munkustrap sighed and all was still until they heard a crash.
"Jennyanydots is having a kitten huh!" Bombalurina screamed, they heard another crash. "It might be your kitten!" CRASH! "Rum Tum Tugger you bastard!" Crash! Then all they heard was Bombalurina's sobs, "I want a kitten too..."
Run Tum Tugger stared at his weeping mate and all feelings left his body. Slowly he turned and started to walk away. "That's right! Run away, just like you do when we fight! Run to her!" Bombalurina screamed hysterically. Rum Tum Tugger turned around to look at her.
"Well what would you have me do?! I don't want to hurt you!" Rum Tum Tugger yelled at her.
"Love me..." she whispered, "Love me and we'll be able to work through this."
"Bombalurina...I don't know how to love you..." He whispered.
"Then I'll teach you," Bombalurina told him as she walked toward him. "We can get through this...together," she purred. Slowly, almost tentatively, she rubbed her head against his and licked his nose, Rum Tum Tugger groaned.
"Fine, have it your way," he said in exasperation. The smile on Bombalurina's face took his breath away.
Old Deuteronomy sighed when Mistoffeles reported. "So Macavity's at it again? Oh well, it can't be as bad as what happened to Demeter." The old gray cat sighed once again and turned too look back over the Junkyard, but Misto cleared his throat drawing his father's attention back to him.
"Actually, with no
disrespect meant sir, the kitten he took looked remarkably like him.
She was completely black except for golden tuff around her neck,
arms, and ankles."
"That is remarkable..." Deuteronomy
murmured, then a thought occurred to him, "Could it be possible
that this is Macavity's child? But who could the mate possibly be?"
Jennyanydots couldn't believe it, Rum Tum Tugger was late! With hardly a thought to the consequences Jennyanydots walked toward his (she couldn't think of it as their home). When she got there she was shocked by what she saw. Rum Tum Tugger and Bombalurina were wrapped up in a very intimate situation, but that didn't stop her from yelling, "Rummy! How could you?"
"I'm not going to disappoint my mate anymore, and that's not my kitten you're having," Rum Tum Tugger told her. Jennyanydots was shocked that he had the bronze to stand so close to Bombalurina when he told Jennyanydots this, but what shocked her even more was that Fallerina (her personal nickname for the bitch who stole her man) didn't hit him in rage. When he started talking again she forced herself to pay attention, "The only kit I want to have is Bombi's an-"
"What!" Jennyanydots screeched interrupting him, "Is she pregnant?" then her expression grew smug, "oh...I get it...she's not having your kitten, she's has someone else's child." Before Bombalurina could come to her own defense Tugger did.
"No, she's not. I just love my mate. There's nothing wrong with that."
"No, nothing at all." Jenny sneered.
A/N the nickname Fallerina will most likely never be used again and if it is it was either intentional or accidental. Also I would love it if you did not make fun of Macavity gone softy (Jemima -luvah)! Thank you I nope you enjoy reading my first piece of writing.
