Sorry! bows I know, I've been gone for a while but I've been working on non-fan fiction stuff. I'm still trying to get into other fandoms so if there are any X-Men friends out there, get ready!

-Quidam


"Let me see," Tugger looked at himself in the mirror. "Who do I have a date with today?" He looked at the piece of paper taped to reflective glass. "Ah, yes! Today I'll be courting Tantomile! Ah, it's good to be king of the 'yard!"

His ears perked up. Someone was outside his den and this certain someone was a female. He listened closer to find this female was crying. Eager to score more points with the ladies, he slicked back his stylish Elvis hairdo before heading out. To his surprise, he found the most unlikely queen crying; sitting there with her knees together, face hidden was Etcetera.

"Uh---" He stuttered. Etcetera managed to look up. "Erm----hey?" Etcetera sniffled pathetically before hiding her face again. "Hey! None of that!" He commanded. She looked up again. "I don't' allow beautiful queens to cry."

He flashed her smile; a small one flicked on her face for merely a second. She sighed sadly, staring off into space. Feeling as if it was his duty to help his biggest fan, Tugger walked over to her. He sat down next to her, nudging her gently. Like a reflex, her arms wrapped around his waist as she began to yowl at full volume.

"Well this is awkward," He managed to whisper. He placed his paws on her head, whispering softly. "C'mon now, no need to cry."

"But---but----but----" She stammered as she tried to speak.

"Take a deep breath," He said. She inhaled deeply. "Okay, c'mon. Into the den."

He wrapped an arm around her as he lead her into his home. He sat her down on his kitty bed. He then sat down beside her with a box of tissues. She grabbed one, blowing into it loudly. She sniffed as she grabbed two more.

"Now, tell your Tuggy Wuggy what's wrong." Tugger cooed.

"It-----it just-----happened so fast!" She managed to sob. "Oh moment, Plato was acting all sweet and kind like usual but then---then----" Etcetera broke down into tears again.

"Hey, it's alright," He cooed again. He pulled her into a hug. "Calm down and talk to me. What did Plato do?"

"Well-----" Etcetera hiccupped and then continued. "Electra and I had been running from Pouncival so we hide with Victoria and Jemima inside their tower. Plato came up and I got nervous so I ran to the back. Victoria and Jemima came in but Electra didn't. When I came back out----Plato was----was---"

Etcetera hid her face in his chest. She didn't have to continue the rest; Tugger knew the story. He sighed, feeling a bit disappointed in Plato. Then a question popped into his head.

"Why was Pouncival chasing you?" His curiosity got the best of him.

"He was being annoying. More that usual," Her voice was thick with disgust. "He thought he was being funny by saying he loved Electra."

"He did?" Tugger's curiosity was growing.

"Yeah, it was really weird. He almost sounded serious. Then, Plato does the exact same thing!" Etcetera pouted, tears still welling her eyes.

"Really?"

"Yeah and then he started saying he loved Electra too!" Her lip was still in a pout. "Electra tried to talk to me but I was too mad at her!"

"Wait, how is this her fault?"

"It's her fault for making Plato fall in love with her!" Etcetera blew her nose again. "It's all her fault! I don't know how but---it was like magic!"

"Magic eh?" Tugger thought for a second. "Hey Cettie, why don't we go find Electra and patch this up?"

Admetus peered over the corner, stealing a glimpse at the crying ball of fur. Head hidden in knees, she trembled all over. Her cries were muffled but he could hear them just as well. His eyes softened as he headed towards her. He cocked his head. He rubbed up against her, a purr coming from his throat. Electra looked up only to reveal her tear strained face. The voiceless tom cocked his head again, a small smile on his face.

"Hmph," She said slightly before hiding her face again. "I'm glad you can smile."

Admetus nudged her slightly, purring softly. She looked up again. His smile was small but it was still a smile. She heaved a sigh as she stretched out her legs. Admetus ambled over to her side, his arm around her as he locked her into a hug. She laid her head on his shoulder, a few tears splashing onto his fur. He rocked back and forth like a mother with a crying baby.

"Admetus," She sniffled as she rubbed her snotty nose against him. "You really don't mind if use you as a tissue right now, do you?" The quiet tom smiled sweetly. "Didn't think so." She wiped her eyes, the tears on her paws. "This just isn't fair! Why does this stuff happen to me?"

Admetus squeezed her tightly, making her feel a bit better.

"I guess it's not use in crying for myself," She sighed. "I just wish I understood what was going on! First Pouncival acts all lovey dovey towards me and then Plato starts chasing after me!"

Admetus gave her a funny look. (Not funny as in 'ha ha' but more like 'Say what?')

"I know! It's weird! Pouncival wasn't acting like---------well Pouncival! One moment, he's helping Mistoffelees with something and then the next thing I know, he's chasing after me and Etcetera, yelling at the top of his lungs that he loves me."

Admetus frowned, his eye brow raised with his head slightly cocked.

"It gets worse!" Electra sighed. "As I tried to escape him, Plato comes along and is even worse! Now, Etcetera won't even look at me!"

Electra's lip wobbled indicating another need for comfort. Admetus smiled as he rolled his eyes, pulling her into another hug. She rubbed her nose against his arm again, snot getting stuck on his fur.

"This just isn't fair! Why can't anything go my way!" She asked him with a sad looking face. "I wish Mistoffelees was here! Maybe he knows what was going on."

Admetus smiled at her as if to say, 'Go for it girl!' Electra smiled back but then sighed sadly.

"I don't know Admetus," She placed her head on his shoulder. "Maybe I'm just not meant for love." Admetus shook his head, causing her too laugh. "You're right! I shouldn't give up! Just because my love life is crazy now doesn't mean-----oh crap!" She noticed Admetus' shocked face. "Sorry but I forgot about Plato and Pouncival! They're still fighting over me!" Admetus clasped his paws to his head. "I know! I can't believe I forgot! Come on! We have to find them before one of them gets really hurt!" Admetus nodded. Electra ran off in the direction where she last left the love struck fighters. "Oh, I hope they're still where I left them!"
