There you go, I think this is out of my system now. I don't think I will write anything as AU as this in the future, I like the story, but not how it's told and I miss making small references to the play or the fact that they are cats.

There will be some frustration in this one as well, I have to say it is more fun to write those parts, sorry

I do not own Cats or any lyrics used.


Munkustrap woke up not feeling his left arm. He looked down on it and smiled. Someone lay on it, and must have done so for quite some time. Like the whole night. He couldn't remember last time that happened. What happened last night was a first though, he knew that much. He had never let anybody that close that fast. He felt himself blushing as he thought about the confidence he'd had last night. It seemed to have escaped him during the night because his face reddened even more when the details came back to him. He closed his eyes and a vision flashed from last night. A vision of Alonzo throwing his head back crying out his name. He stirred a bit when his body reminded him that there had been some unfinished business before sleep. He looked into the neck of the tom lying in front of him and tried to move his hips a bit backwards without moving the arm. The thin fabric of his underwear wasn't much of a buffer zone. No matter what he said last night he didn't want to wake up Alonzo with a hard on poking into his back. He didn't want him to feel like he had to make last night up to him before even having been offered some breakfast. Munk didn't expect that. And frankly, he would much rather have Alonzo stay around a little longer than getting pleased.

Munkustrap managed to back up a little and relaxed. It didn't take care of the need but it handled one issue at least. He thought about the text Alonzo had sent last night. The one about them being together if he wanted to. Munk wasn't sure he had been serious. Last night it didn't matter and he got what he wanted then, partly at least. But thinking about today, he hoped it had been true. Both having come down from their separate highs he wanted something more than just the physical pleasure. 'Though some physical pleasure wasn't that bad' he thought as another vision from last night flashed before his eyes. Alonzo pushing down the hem of his pants and bucking the hips forward against his lips. 'How could I not open my mouth?' Munk thought smiling and felt most of his blood seeming to leave his head for southern regions. He pushed his right paw in between his legs to adjust the underwear he slept in, which now seemed way to bare for a good choice. He tried to will the blood back up to his head, reminding himself that he wanted to use his brain a bit today. It did not help. His body only seemed to register the friction and not the will behind it. 'Isn't it the thought that counts?' he thought but his body betrayed him and instead his hips bucked forward with a mind of their own. If only his left arm had been free he could have gotten out of the bed and occupied himself with something else. Like making breakfast or just anything more useful than this. He tried to move his right paw. 'Not around, away!' he reminded himself but the brain was on a break and left in charge was the frustrating friend from yesterday. This was ridiculous. He closed his eyes and tried to think about something else. This wasn't really a good way to show that he wanted something more than just a quick shag. His heart sank when he felt a paw grab his right wrist and Alonzo stirring in front of him. Munk decided to not open his eyes out of embarrassment.

Alonzo turned to face the so very confident silver knight from last night only to find a very embarrassed Munkustrap pinching his eyes together. He pulled the right arm he had grabbed over his own hip and moved in closer. Munkustrap's eyes shot open and looked into his. Alonzo met them with a grin.

"I thought you invited me here to not have to do that?" Alonzo said feeling himself being the confident one today. Munk blushed and drew back, starting to get up from the bed without looking at Alonzo. He mumbled something about coffee. Alonzo cursed himself for stepping over the line. He raised himself up on his elbows as Munkustrap reached the door. "Hey silver knight!" he said and that stopped Munk in his tracks. He turned around still not looking at Alonzo but with a barely noticeable twitch at the corner of his mouth that Alonzo hoped was a smile. "I was just messing with you, come back..please?" he said trying to look as innocent as he could. Munk looked at him and smiled.

"I'm gonna go make some breakfast" he said to Alonzo's disappointment but he still smiled. "Sleep a bit more and I'll bring you some when I'm done" he said with a wink and went out the door into the kitchen.

Alonzo sighed and leaned back down in bed putting his paws up behind his head. Then a thought struck him and he put one paw in front of his mouth and breathed out. 'Ugh, morning breath' he thought and hoped it wasn't what scared the other tom away. But then he remembered what probably was the reason he bolted and morning breath sounded like the better one. He closed his eyes putting one arm over them. It seemed like he couldn't do much right with Munkustrap, but still, here he was, in his bed and with some quality material from last night to think about if he never made it here again. He hoped his silver knight didn't just want a one time thing, he had been serious last night even though he had been too much of a coward to send it without the performance enhancing drug. Alonzo had no idea why he had been forgiven about that. He knew Munk hated it and the tone of the text he sent asking had made Alonzo think it was the last straw. But nothing worked out for him like it normally did with Munkustrap. 'And why was that?' he thought. It wasn't like Alonzo hadn't done this before. He had picked up a lot of toms and had been picked up himself quite a few times as well. Still, this was nothing like any of those times. He remembered that last text about them being together and realised that the difference was that he wanted something more. Something that he hadn't wanted with anyone before. He wanted Munkustrap to like him for who he really was and coincidentally that made him terrified to show it to him. He had no idea how he would handle it if his silver knight rejected him after having seen his real self. 'He came pretty close yesterday though' he thought as he remembered how much he had lost himself in the moment. And then his mind had to remind him that he got rejected twice after that as he tried to make it up to Munkustrap. 'What if that was the rejection he dreaded?' he thought and his mouth got dry. He didn't wanna know. He just wanted to stop the time and stay here before Munkustrap could come back from the kitchen and crush the illusion. But of course he did. Well at least come back from the kitchen, the illusion crushing thing being a bit delayed by breakfast.

"Breakfast in bed" said Munk as he put the tray down sitting down next to it. "One could almost say that's the perfect thing to wake up to" he said with a grin and handed Alonzo a cup of coffee. "One could say that" he added with a knowing look when Alonzo found himself lost for words. He quickly snapped out of it.

"This is perfect, thank you" he said accepting the cup of coffee but then fell silent.

"Is something wrong?" asked Munk though he had much rather kept quiet. He wasn't sure he wanted an answer. The worst embarrassment had died down but he still felt stupid both for getting caught and for running away. He hoped Alonzo would be willing to stay a bit longer even though he acted so weird. He had no idea why he had twice turned down the other tom. He wanted nothing more than to say yes, well that wasn't entirely true. He wanted something more, but hopefully that didn't exclude the first option.

"Actually" said Alonzo mustering up some confidence and looking at Munkustrap. "I have no idea how I deserve all this" he said and Munkustrap could recognise the facial expression from yesterday outside the door. 'Oh Everlasting, he has no idea what he does to me' thought Munkustrap and decided to play at confidence even though it wasn't really back.

"Oh I see this as an investment, I heard the return rate is pretty good" he said with a grin and Alonzo snorted out the coffee he had sipped on. They both started laughing and when they had regained some composure Munkustrap started to dig into the breakfast and Alonzo followed.


Breakfast was almost done and Alonzo stirred his cold coffee around the cup, not wanting the moment to end. They had talked casually through breakfast, much like the dates they had been on where nothing more ever happened and Alonzo was getting more convinced that he was soon about to start the shoeless walk home. The silver knight had kind of suggested something more before leaving, a return of the investment he had put in but Alonzo felt himself fear getting shot down again. His confidence was quite bruised after the last two tries and the shifts between insecurity and confidence in both of them left his mind whirling. He was nowhere near sure if Munkustrap wanted anything more than just a reprise from yesterday with the roles reversed. Alonzo wouldn't mind that at all, but at the same time he wanted so much more. He tried different approaches in his head ranging from suave and sexy to begging on his knees. He was just about to open his mouth and speak whatever decided to come out when Munk cleared his throat and looked at him.

"I think I just want to lie on the couch all day and watch a movie, do you want to stay?" Munkustrap asked as if he had read it from a card. He had been debating back and forth in his head how he could possibly persuade Alonzo to stay a little longer. It had felt great to just laugh about what happened earlier but now he hadn't been so sure Alonzo felt like staying, after all, he had gotten pretty much what he wanted last night. "And ehm, watch with me?" he added and it came out almost a whisper. Munk swore inwardly for sounding so vulnerable. Alonzo reached out and covered the silver knights paw with his, stroking softly with his thumb.

"I'm not watching any romcom crap" he said narrowing his eyes and Munk smiled.

"Never heard of it, I'll fix something else" he answered and got up. He thought about picking movie from the length of it rather than the content when Alonzo grabbed his wrist.

"You pick a movie and lie down on the sofa, and I will take care of this" he said and gestured at the tray. Munkustrap hesitated, he was so very used to take care of himself and others, and Alonzo was his guest. "Consider it an early return for making it in the first place" Alonzo said with a wink and Munk surrendered.


Alonzo didn't stop fuzzing until Munk was on the sofa, lying down under a blanket. When Munk had sat down at first Alonzo grabbed his feet and turned him to lie down on the side instead. After that Alonzo had returned to fetch the tray and then occupied himself in the kitchen. Munkustrap couldn't really relax. He wanted to get out there and help, tell where things were or just take over. It took longer than he had thought it would and just as he was about to turn over the blanket and get up to investigate Alonzo came through the door opening carrying the tray. This time filled with snacks.

"I improvised" said Alonzo smiling. "By the way, you are out of snacks" he added when Munk's eyes widened at the overfilled tray.

"Maybe I will make you buy me some more" said Munkustrap with a smile and started to sit up.

"Nope, lie down again" said Alonzo and placed the tray on the table in front of the sofa. He pushed the table in close to it. "Now scoot" said Alonzo and gestured for him to back up against the back of the sofa. Before Munk could protest Alonzo was already climbing in to lie in front of him. Quickly he pushed back and made room. "I'm cold" said Alonzo innocently and Munk laughed and lifted the blanket.

Munkustrap started the movie and both tried to concentrate but neither could have said what it was about. There was like an electric current flowing between them. They barely touched but still lay so close that they shared heat. Munk had waited what he thought must have been at least half an hour before he carefully draped one arm over the tom in front of him and Alonzo answered by scooting back the last half centimetre so that his back rested against the chest of the silver knight. Munkustrap let one finger make small circles in the fur of Alonzo's chest and did his best to hold back a shudder when Alonzo purred. The shudder he could stifle but something else was having none of it. Munks back was pressed against the sofa and he couldn't move his hips back when he felt the front fabric of his underwear stretch more tightly. Alonzo pressed his hips back slightly and Munk gasped at the added pressure. Alonzo couldn't hold back a wide grin and turned his head to face his silver knight and raised an eyebrow questioningly.

"I was eh...thinking about last night" said Munkustrap embarrassed again.

"And does thinking about me like that often give this effect?" Alonzo couldn't help but tease.

"Almost exclusively" Munkustrap answered and swallowed. He felt less embarrassed now, the tone of Alonzo's voice was flirty and Munk had to restrain himself from lowering his paw to confirm if he wasn't the only one with tight pants. Alonzo's pupils grew as he noticed the embarrassment fade away.

"And do you often handle that effect like, say for example, this morning?" Alonzo asked feeling his mouth getting dry. Just the thought of his silver knight touching himself while thinking of him sent every reasonable doubt about bringing up the embarrassing sequence again out the window. Munkustrap blushed to a deep red. "Because I do" Alonzo felt the need to admit.

"Oh yeah? It happens a lot does it?" Munkustrap teased him back, relieved that the focus shifted.

"Twice before I got here last night" Alonzo blurted out before he could stop himself. His eyes widened and his face flushed.

"I only had time once before I accidentally invited you here" said Munkustrap holding back a chuckle as the tables turned.

"Accidentally? Please, I could hear that you wanted me" said Alonzo sarcastically and relaxed. Munkustrap grinned widely and pulled Alonzo close, grinding their hips together, confirming they were both hard. They both let out a moan.

"Well, I wasn't the one running over here without even putting on shoes" Munk answered and their faces were so close now. They could feel the others breath on their lips.

"About that, can I borrow a pair when I leave?" said Alonzo wondering why the hell he would bring up leaving right now. But his mind was fuzzy, all it could think about was closing the last gap between their lips.

"You're not going anywhere" said Munk and with a firm grip he pulled Alonzo up on top of him and lay on his back. "I have some winnings from past investments to collect" he finished. He had tried to keep his voice fun and flirty but it sounded thick and his breathing was heavier.

Alonzo couldn't wait any longer. He pressed his lips down onto his silver knights and lost himself in the kiss. He really, really tried to focus on giving, but he was lost. All he could hope for was to keep up as best as he could, but he was already leaps behind. Munkustrap felt himself taking control. Separating his lips and- no there was no control. He forced his tongue in, almost wrestling down the other tongue, teeth knocking together with the eagerness. His paws were on Alonzo's lower back and he held him steady as he bucked their hips together. He was ridiculously close already but not even caring. He had been staving off an orgasm for almost twelve hours, it made sense to just let go. But Alonzo had something else on his mind and backed up. He sat straddling the hips of the silver knight and instead of just keep on grinding against each other, which had felt great, he snapped back to last night. Alonzo leaned forward and placed the first kiss just above the collarbone, the next on top of it and slowly making his way lower.

When Alonzo reached the hem of the underwear he didn't pull them off. He used one paw to hold them down and the sight of his silver knight in all his glory took the breath out of him for a second. He wet his lips and put them just like Munk had last night, close enough to feel the heat but without touching and oh, it felt just as good from this perspective. Munkustrap writhed under him and very much like he had done himself, Alonzo felt the hard length press against his lips. 'How can I not open my mouth?' he thought with a grin and parted his lips.
