A/N: Updated again! My fingers are so sore! Please review? Pretty please?
Thanks to Alfieletriss, shadowtheo and TLP for reviewing!
"How do I look?" Tugger asked Etcetera. Tugger had decided to go on a date with Misto, but he was sure Misto wouldn't accept him since he was a tom not a queen. So Tugger asked Etcetera to dress him up like a queen. Tugger didn't dare look in a mirror but asked Etcetera's opinion first.
"Fabulous!" Etcetera squealed. Victoria, who watched silently by the side nodded her head in agreement. Tugger teetered around on high, high, high heels that were hurting a bit. His lips felt moist but Etcetera told him that if he licked his lips the makeup would come off. Finally he reached the mirror without falling over. But the moment he saw his own reflection he fell down and fainted dead away. For the tom in the mirror had some sort of blue stuff over his forehead fur and sparkly stuff on the whiskers. The moist stuff on his lips had been either lip gloss or lipstick. Tugger wasn't sure he wanted to know which one.
After persuasion from both Victoria and Etcetera, Tugger finally left to see Misto. When Tugger arrived he remembered that he hadn't given a fake name for himself. But then he had already knocked and Misto was at the door looking at him oddly. Tugger prayed (for the first time ever) to the Everlasting Cat that Mistoffelees wouldn't recognize him under all that…stuff.
"Are you lost?" Misto asked the fluffed up queen. The queen looked oddly familiar, but Misto just couldn't lay a claw on who it was. The queen shrugged and gave a demented high-pitched giggle and said, "You want a hot date?"
"What?" Misto asked since he was sure the queen had said something entirely different. The queen lifted one paw daintily and whispered, "Come on, you know you want to go on a hot date with me, you hunk!"
"I'm sorry, but who are you?" Misto asked incredulous that anyone would be so straightforward. Either this was a prank or it was his lucky day, even if the queen was a little weird.
Tugger swore inwardly. He still hadn't come up for a name, so he tried it, "My name is Je…vi…et…el."
"Jevietel?" Misto asked trying the exotic name on his tongue. Truly, Tugger had been going to say, "Jemima", and then he stopped after the first syllable and then, "Victoria", but he also stopped after the first syllable. Then it was, "Etcetera", but again only after the first syllable did he realize it wasn't a good idea. So the last one was, "Electra", but only the first syllable. But Jevietel was a fine enough name for him.
"Yes and you're the hottest guy on the block, Mister Mistoffelees!" Tugger screeched as best as he could. Misto blushed deep and hard at the queen and said, "So, about that date."
"Yes, pretty boy?" Jevietel fluttered. Misto smiled a "Tugger" smile as best as he could, but it was lacking something…that's right, it was lacking Tugger.
"Where do we go?" Misto replied.
"Hmm….how about Fred's Pancake House?" Jevietel asked innocently. Misto gasped and said in a delighted voice, "That's my favorite!"
"Mmm…my favorite too", Jevietel replied with a flirtatious grin. They both left, skipping happily.
After the pancakes, the "lovers" left for the bar where both of them got rip-roaring drunk. Tugger made sure he wasn't so drunk that his cover would be blown. Through the whole night, the two of them realized they had a lot more in common then they could guess. Misto admitted to himself that some of his hobbies were oddly feminine, but Jevietel didn't seem to mind one bit.
"That wash the besht da-ate oi've eber been on", Misto said slurring his words oddly. Jevietel nodded in a girly manner still and said, with only a little bit of slurring, "You are the greatesh tom ever!"
"Well, yo haven' met Tugs", Misto said bitterly. Tugger's ears were instantly alert as he heard those words. Jevietel on the other hand, was not supposed to know who Tugger was, so he quickly said, "Who's Tugs?"
"Tugger, yo've prolly heard o' him", Misto yowled. Tugger shook his head and said, "Who's zat?"
"The Rum…Tum Tugger!"
"I'd rather be here with you", Tugger said solemnly. Misto nodded and said, "Tis okay to loi abou' zat."
"I'm not lyin'", Tugger cried indignantly. Misto said, "Jevietel, you bar the most amashing queen, oi've eber met."
"Thank you", Jevietel replied.
"Yo deserf bet-er than me!" Misto cried out. Then he fainted clean away.
This is also going to take awhile to update. I have other stories calling to me, but if you review, the updating process will be so much faster! The number of reviews I get is how many days earlier I'll post the chapter!
