Hello! Thank you for the reviews! Arigato! And thank you Alphoscapsy-cola for correcting me! I appreciate that very much! Now that someone voted for Mungojerrie, I guess I have to put him here in the chapter. Oh no, this is getting more confusing than I thought.

Jemima glanced at Pouncival, who was busy helping Jennyanydots put up the banner for the Jellicle Ball. She blushed as she remembered when Pouncival confessed to her.
"Jemima? Are you listening?" Demeter asked as Jemima looked at her. "Yes. I'm listening" she said, sighing. Demeter raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? Then what did I just said?" she asked, smirking.
Jemima thought about it nervously. "What did she say a while a go?" she thought nervously, as she looked away, thinking what Demeter had said. Demeter sighed as she shook her head. "You weren't listening. I said that you have to choose a mate before the ball" she said.
Jemima laughed nervously. "Yeah. I was actually thinking about that." Jemima said, chuckling nervously. "Can I go outside now?" Demeter nodded as Jemima smiled and left the den. She looked around and realized that everyone was very busy.
She felt a light tap from her shoulder as she turned around to see a smiling Mungojerrie. She smiled back gently. "Good afternoon Mungo." She said, smiling at him.
"Good morning Jemima. Guess what I got for you today" he said, hiding something. Jemima titled her head, looking confused. "What is it?" she asked curiously.
Mungojerrie showed her a golden necklace with a golden locket in it.
"What is it?" Jemima asked, observing the necklace. "It's a locket. Open it" Mungojerrie said as she opened it and found a picture of a pink heart. (A/N: I was suppose to write a picture of all the Jellicle Cats, but I think that impossible, since he's just a cat. I mean, where did he get the picture?). Jemima smiled brightly as she looked at Mungojerrie and smiled, melting Mungojerrie's heart.
"It's beautiful Mungo! I love it!" she said happily as she hugged him tightly. This made Mungo smile brighter. "I knew you'd love it" he said as Jemima let go of him and giggled. She looked at the heart again and looked at Mungojerrie.
Mungojerrie when he looked in her eyes. He had always loved her because she was so kind and gentle and her eyes are so beautiful. "Will you help me wear this?" Jemima asked as Mungo nodded. Jemima gave him the locket and turned around as Mungo helped her wore the necklace.
Misto came out from his den, just to see Mungo with Jemima. "Is Mungo the kitten Jemima was talking about?" he wondered as he felt a shot of electricity running in his spine. He knew it was jealousy.
Jemima giggled as she hugged Mungojerrie again, making Misto frown. She kissed Mungo in the cheek as Mungo blushed. Misto clenched his fist.
"You're so sweet Mungo. Don't ever change" she said sweetly as Mungo grinned. "Of course I'll never change. I'll never ever change just for you" he said, making Jemima blush lightly.
This made Misto more jealous. "Hey, me and my sister are decorating the trash cans. Wanna help?" Mungo asked as Jemima looked confused. "Why would you design a trash can?"
"Well, that's the task Jenny gave us. She said that will make the junkyard brighter" he replied as Jemima giggled. "I bet she only gave them that task just to keep them from mischief" Jemima thought as Mungo held her hand and led her to the trash cans.
Misto still feel jealous when he saw Mungo held her hand. "Stop it Misto. There's no need to get jealous about. They're just friends…" Misto thought, but he began to doubt that Jemima and Mungo are just friends.
They reached the trash can as Mungojerrie sat down with Rumpleteazer who was painting flowers all over the trash can. "Hey Teazer, Jemima decided to help us" Mungo said as Rumpleteazer smiled at Jemima.
"That's good to hear! Come and sit with us, here's a paint brush. How about you paint a butterfly?" Rumpleteazer suggested. Jemima hesitated for a bit. "Can I paint a moon instead?" she asked as Teazer nodded. Jemima started to do her work.
"Jemima, let me take over your body"
"Leave me alone Sillabub"
"C'mon, I wanna get outta here"
"No way. You caused too much trouble."
"You're not like Macavity at all."
"What?"
"Never mind"
"Done!" Teazer said happily, as she admired her work. "Its looks good Teazer." Jemima complimented as Teazer smiled proudly.
"Oh no, we're out of paint. Jemima, could you go to Misto and get more paint?" Teazer asked as Jemima blushed. She hesitated again, making Mungo worry. "What's the matter Jemima?" he asked. Jemima shook her head and smiled. "Nothing. I'll get some more paint" she said as she stood up and walked slowly towards Misto's den.
"What am I gonna do? After kissing Misto and leaving him alone, what should I do?" Jemima thought nervously, breathing heavily. Her heart started to beat faster. She started to tremble when she reached the tube, and went inside.
She reached the end, and on the end there was a large room. She saw Misto, practicing his magic. Jemima crawl out of the tube and into his room. He didn't seem to notice she was there. She cleared her throat and Misto jumped a bit and looked at her.
"Jemima, you startled me" he said, putting down his book. Jemima smiled slightly as she looked down, blushing. Misto was also showing a hint of blush as cleared his throat.
"Oh yes, I forgot. Um, can we have more paint? Me, Rumpleteazer, Mungojerrie were painting a trash can and we ran out of paint." She explained as Misto nodded. He walked over to a shelf as he looked for his paint.
Jemima realized that his room was well organized and very clean. In the right corner she saw a large bed, and on the left corner was his bed. She knew that the large bed was for his uncle, Bustopher Jones.
"Why are you painting trash can anyway?" Misto asked, still looking through his shelf. "Well, Jenny gave them the task. I think that's the job she gave for them just to put them out of mischief. I just wanted to help them anyway" she replied.
Misto chuckled as he got out 3 buckets of paint. He gave them to Jemima, when she reached for it, their hands brushed together as she got the bucket. When their hands touched, they felt an electricity running up and down their spine.
Jemima blushed darker, while Misto blushed lightly. "I guess I'll be going" she said shyly as he nodded. She left the den and ran to Teazer and Mungo, but she suddenly felt a hand held her arm.
She turned around to see a serious Pouncival. "Pouncival? What is it?" she asked. Pouncival that she didn't call him "Pounce", the nickname she gave for him. "Can I talk to you?" he asked softly. Jemima looked at Teazer and Mungo was chasing a dragonfly.
"Okay" she said as her behind the junkyard. Pouncival sighed. She realized that he looked very nervous and kept sighing. "Pouncival? What's the matter?" she asked with worry in her voice. Pouncival looked at her as he held both her shoulders and pushed her gently on the wall.
"Jemima, what's your reply?" he asked. Jemima looked confused. "What do you mean?" she asked, confused. "When I confessed to you." He said as Jemima blushed and looked at the ground.
"Well, um… I… don't know" she said shyly, looking down at the floor. Pouncival let her go as he sighed again. "You don't know?" he asked as Jemima nodded.
"Because… I…. um….uh………….well……..because……..I…….." She stuttered. Pouncival suddenly pressed his lips on hers, her eyes widened at this. She just stood there, shocked.
But slowly, she returned the kiss, kissing him back as she closed her eyes. She didn't know why she was kissing back but she felt it was right.

"Misto! Me and Plato accidentally threw the ball from the other side of the junkyard. Will you mind getting it?" Tumblebrutus said as Misto nodded and ran behind the junkyard. He finally got the ball when he saw Jemima and Pouncival, their lips pressed together.
His eyes widened. He was shock, surprise, jealousy, and hurt. He never felt this before. He couldn't move nor run, did he just stand there like a rock.
--
They finally stopped for breath as they looked at each other. They were both blushing and neither of them spoke. Jemima saw Misto, watching them. She gasped as she stared at his eyes. Eyes that are filled with hatred and hurt.
"Misto." She said as Pouncival turned around to see Misto too. "Misto?" he said, confused that he was here. Misto finally moved his feet as he ran away as fast as he could, tears started to appear.
"Misto!" she called as she ran after him. He reached the woods as Jemima went after him, calling his name. No, he doesn't want to talk to her. She loves three kittens, not two.
He felt someone held his hand as he turned around to see Jemima, panting. "Misto, please. Le-"but before Jemima could finish her sentence, Misto said something that shattered her heart.
"Slut." He muttered as Jemima gasped and her eyes widened. "What?" she asked, making sure she heard it clearer. Misto glared at her as he pushed her away. "You heard me! You've been using toms! Kissing them then go to another tom! That's just sick Jemima! What kind of queen are you?! When will you start to grow up?! If you want to play with toms, why does it have to be me?!" he said angrily, as tears started to roll down her cheeks.
He finally ran, leaving her all alone. She fell down to her knees as she started to cry quietly. "He's right. When will I grow up? I always need a tom to clear my mind. I never solve a solution by myself." She thought crying. It started to rain heavily, but she didn't mind.
She just cried there, covering her face with her hands. She suddenly felt like her heart was getting heavy, and she felt weak. Her body trembled because of the cold. She started to cough. "I have to go back. They might wonder where I went" she thought as she stood up, her legs were weak.
She coughed again as she reached the junkyard. All the cats were in their den, hiding the decorations so it won't get wet. Mungojerrie looked bored as he stared at the rain. He saw a weak Jemima, trying to walk. He suddenly felt worried as he ran towards her, unmindful of the rain.
"Jemima, are you ok?" he asked as Jemima looked at him and fainted, his arms caught her.
