Macavity

I can't believe this. The second I walk inside some girl is dancing around, not paying attention, and she bumps into me. When she sees it's me, she screams. Why wouldn't she scream? I am scary. Sure, I've raided the yard before, but that was only because other cats were going to attack, and I had to create distractions while my henchcats took care of the other attackers. And - I didn't want them to know I was doing them a favor. I couldn't believe I was at Prom. I'm still a Jellicle, so I have every right to be here before others that aren't Jellicles. I'm also Deuteronomy's son, so I should be here before everyone. Though that doesn't mean I wanted to go, but... Maybe I should start from the beginning.

Two years before, I left the tribe. I just couldn't handle it. Those patronizing stares and harsh judgments. Fuck that. So I left and after a little while and with the help of my psychic abilities, I was a pretty successful mobcat. Though I still kind of missed the yard. Mungojerrie had been my closest friends, other than my brothers, and he always wanted to help me and be a part of the mob while still be a Jellicle. I couldn't say no to him. He always informed me when he got word something was going to happen to the Jellicles. He was my spy. So, I gathered my cronies, and as me and a few others "raided" the tribe (we only stole a few things) the rest were getting rid of the other attackers in the back.

I was running away from the tribe after we had stolen some stuff and until I knew the tribe was out of danger. I was looking back when I ran right into some Jellicle. He was standing right in the hole of the fence that I had always used to sneak out. It was tucked away in the very back corner, hidden by mounds of junk. He had seen my henchcats steal from the tribe, and ran, but then he also saw my henchcats ward off the attackers. He's quite the smart cat, and so he put it together easily.

I sat up, since I had fallen right on top of him - poor kit, he was a lot smaller than me then. "Shit," I mumbled.

"Macavity," he said, sitting up and looking at me with big green eyes. "Y-you were helping us."

My eyes went wide and I stared down at him. "Uh..."

"Don't deny it," he told me, and he had this charming smile. It was one of those smiles that could make the coldest heart go warm - including mine.

"Yeah," I said, finding myself smiling. He was cute. "But look, don't tell anyone."

"Why? They'll be thankful."

"I don't want them to be thankful."

"Why not?"

"Because I don't like them," I said.

He pursed his lips, and even though he was looking at me disapprovingly, he was so utterly adorable and I just wanted to purse my own lips against his.

I suddenly realized the position we were in, me sitting right over his...you know. I sat up suddenly, finding myself blushing. Can you believe that? Blushing.

"What if I do tell people?" he asked, standing up.

"You won't," I said.

"How do you know that?"

"Because...I'm kidnapping you."

"Wha-"

I wrapped my arms around him and disappeared. We appeared at the London Eye. He looked around amazed, because it was the farthest he had ever been away from the tribe. He looked at me and I could tell he was wondering if I really was kidnapping him. Technically, I did, but I smirked at him to let him know I wasn't gonna rape him or anything.

"What's your name?" I asked.

"Tumblebrutus."

I took him everywhere that night, and I came back a few times a week, but after our first kiss, I came back every day. We've been together for a little over two years now. I love him to death and I'm just not even going to go into details. I love him with infinity explanation. I love him so much I agreed to go to Prom with him. I kept telling him I'd get run out and he'd get banned from the tribe, but he didn't take it. He told me he'd with hold sex from me, and I believed him.

So here I was, with the most amazing person in the world who looked so beautiful, and someone screamed at seeing me, which made everyone turn to look at me. I sighed and looked at Tumblebrutus. He smiled at me, and my worries went away. I took his hand and walked passed those damn Jellicles.

"Hey Mac," said Jerrie, who knew I was coming with Brutus.

"Hi," I replied, pulling out some nip.

"You can't bring that here," Brutus hissed, and started to laugh.

I smiled and then caught eyes with my brothers. I looked away, knowing they had been hurt at me leaving, and at the way I turned out.

Tugger walked over. "What're you doing here?" he asked.

"I'm here with Brutus," I said.

"You - and Tumbles?"

"Yeah. We've been together for, like, two years."

"But...he's the nicest person around."

I shrugged.

"Macavity is much nicer than you'd think," Brutus said, and I smiled down at him.

Then Munk walked over, and I was expecting him to go off on me or hit me or something, but he ended up smiling and said, "Hey guys. Having fun?"

I became more relieved as the night wore on.

"Isn't this nice?" Brutus asked.

I sighed. "You were right. It's lovely."

He smiled, leaned in, and kissed me.

I looked at him lovingly. Fine, I'll explain the depth of my love for him. He is so utterly amazing it's incomprehensible. He is by far the kindest person I have ever met. I mean, he never judged me, even when I did bad things because I wanted to. He always knew how to calm me down, saying all the right things. He knows exactly how I like every little detail in everything. He's so smart and we can talk about war and politics and history and everything. He understands me and sometimes I feel like he's reading my mind. He makes me laugh so much more than any other living cat. He consumed my entire world. Everything was for him, and he never asked. I just felt like he deserved everything, which is why I tried to give him everything. He returned every favor, too, because he felt the exact same way as I did. He was perfect, and I loved him more than I loved anything in this entire world. I'd give up everything just to be with him forever.

"If you want me to return to the Junkyard, I will," I told him.

"No. We can visit the yard, but you take me every where Macavity. I wanna see the world with you," he told me.

I smiled and pulled him onto my lap, kissing him deeply. "You are so completely perfect for me, it's almost ridiculous."

He giggled and said, "I love you dear."

"I love you, too. Now come on. Let's dance."

Okay. I guess I have to admit it. Prom was amazing.

Tumblebrutus? And Macavity? Who would've thought? I actually love Tumbles and Macavity. Tumbles is so kind and caring and Macavity is the opposite, and I love opposites attract love stories :)

Now, all you have to wonder about is who on earth will be Prom King and Queen?
