Chapter 1
After the events of destroying aliens. Life has been pretty normal yet boring for the mews. Zoey is now a 2nd year and most of the time takes her school work seriously. Other days its just lazy days. Maybe because regardless of beating the aliens she will forever be a mew. Her life was perfect for her standards. With a handsome yet lovely boyfriend Mark and a job who could do better at treating her a bit better she wouldn't have it any way.
Her other teammates Corina is now a 1st year. She goes to a fancy boarding school up north. Bridget was now a 3rd year and was the top of her class. Kiki, however, still kind of takes care of her siblings but they are old enough to know better. Renee got gigs after gigs and doesn't really have the time to deal with things. That leaves Elliot and Wesley. They still own café mew. To them they want to keep the place around even after the mission is over.
Zoey and her friends sat around their tables like they usually do during lunch. They talked about boys and how it feels to just be normal. Normal meaning everyone in the city just believed that the mew things were all a fever dream or just a promotion for a live action movie. The people who knew the truth just decided to leave it alone. Her own best friends don't question her too much about it.
"Hey, I have a question" Mimi said as she opened her bento box.
Zoey knew this wouldn't be the end of it. Honestly tired of hearing mew this and mew that. She sighed as she huffed in frustration knowing where this conversation was going. "Hm?" Is all that came out.
"Have you and Mark… you know" Zoey who was now choking on her drink looked at Mimi. Surely, she was implying having gone all the way home but she hasn't.
Megan on the other hand shook her head and she ate her katsu. "You don't ask questions like that" She wiped her mouth. Zoey was done with her coughing fit for a moment and nodded her head.
"No, we haven't. I am waiting" She simply put it. Although, it has been on her mind recently. Mark and her have been dating for a while now. They haven't gotten passed the kissing stage. Mostly because Zoey was scared. Then again Mark has been seen talking to other girls which makes Zoey wait. There were times they tried but he would always back out because of something that came up at the last minute.
They continued to have a causal conversation after that awkward moment. Lunch was over and back to classes they went. Classes was long and boring but the day is over. Zoey went over to her locker after the day was done and she took off her shoes to replace them with the other shoes. Japanese school tradition.
Upon exiting the school building and arm reached out and grabbed her causing her to jump with fear. Her cat ears popped out and she almost yelled out for help. "relax Zoe" She turned her head slightly to see who it was. Her hero boyfriend Mark was the one who grabbed her. She sighed with relief but then hit his chest. "Don't do that! I was scared I was getting kidnapped" Her heart was pounding extremely fast after all.
He chuckled and placed his hand on her cheek as she was now fully turned around. "I'm sorry. I forget you're a scaredy cat" He teased while pointing to her exposed cat ears. She rubbed her ears and they went away. Talk about embarrassing.
"Why the sudden grab?" Her heart pace was back to normal.
He rubbed the back of his head and said "I was wondering would you like to go out a little later tonight."
He rubbed her cheeks. Her cheeks turned red at the touch as she tried to find the right words. As she was about to answer her phone rang. Talk about timing. She huffed and saw the caller ID Elliot of all people calling at a time like this. "Give me a second." She told Mark who was now a bit disappointed and removed his hands from her face. "Hellooooo" Her voice was aggressive.
"You have work today. Don't forget" Elliot spoke. Zoey was now frustrated and wondering why she even picked up the phone. "Don't be late." He hung up. She locked her phone screen and stomped in place as she began to curse quietly to herself forgetting that Mark was there.
Mark watched as she threw a tantrum and snickered. "I'm guessing you are busy" Zoey quickly turned around and lowered her head
"I'm sorry, I forgot I have work today" She whined like a 3 year old. Just then an idea popped into her head. "Wait, I could work for a bit and tell that jerk face that I have to study for a test and that I need to be let go early" She was so excited for the plan she didn't realize her tail was out.
"Uh, Zoe, you're tail" Mark pointed it out causing her to jump and her tail disappeared. "You have to try not to get overly excited" He pointed out with a chuckle. He walked over to her and placed his lips against hers causing her to feel like she was on cloud nine. "At least let me walk you to work." She nodded as her face was completely red.
Along their walk they talked about school and her being a mew. It was still surprising to him that she was the leader of the mews giving her clumsy nature. She talked about how much she loved spending time with him but it all came to an end when they were face to face of the gates to the Café. Elliot was standing outside with just jeans and a crop top of all things. He was basically showing off his body. Zoey rolled her eyes at the sight of him.
"You're late" He pointed at his watch.
"You're lucky I even came" She retorted back. They were now in a staring contest. Mark just stood there awkwardly. He wasn't sure what to do.
Elliot sighed as he pulled away and walked towards the doors of the café. "Hurry up and get dressed"
Zoey threw her arms up in defeat. Mark hugged her from behind and kissed her cheek. "Don't worry too much about him. We'll go on a date soon" He reminds her. He kissed her one more time and happily skipped her way inside of the café.
Upon entering the café, the smell of sweets filled the air. Bridget and Kiki were there waitressing. They greeted Zoey as she walked through the doors. "Hi Zoey" Kiki said as she was balancing a plate on her fingers. She was told time and time to stop doing that but she doesn't listen so they gave up.
"Good afternoon Zoey" Bridget spoke softly as she watched to make sure Kiki didn't break another plate.
Zoey moped to girls and waved hello to them. She was annoyed. "Hey girls" She said with a grump. Bridget smiled hoping it will help her.
"Why so down" Kiki finally placed the plate down on the table. Bridget sighed with relief. Before she could answer Wesley walked out the backroom with a tray filled with sweets.
"Oh, hello Zoey. Didn't know you were coming in." He greeted her with a smile. Elliot walked in a few seconds later with his arms folded.
His eyes met Zoey as he scoffed. "You come in late and you're not even dressed for work?" He was upset. She didn't reply to him. She just simply walked by him bumping her arm into his as she walked by. After getting changed in the locker room she stood in front of the mirror and sighed. Was this what she wanted? To go to school then work for someone who is ungrateful? You would think after saving the world he would give her a raise. That's a private conversation that they needed to have asap. She worked for about 5 hours. Mostly doing everything since Bridget had to keep cleaning up after Kiki.
The day was done, and the girls had went home except for Zoey who was ordered by the boss to stay late since she arrived late. Stacking the chairs and moping the floors wasn't as hard as she thought. Especially when everyone was gone and it gave her a chance to think to herself. Once she was done cleaning her stomach growled.
"Is someone hungry?" She heard a voice ask. She turned to see Elliot standing there as he was leaning against the kitchen door. She didn't think her stomach was that loud. Her head slowly nods as he chuckled slightly. He walked over to her stood before her. "Would you like me to make you something" He questioned.
Zoey now had her hands on her hips. "You cook?"
He was amused at her response. "I'm not just a pretty face you know" He smirked and she rolled her eyes. He walked back over to the kitchen and she followed. She wasn't sure why she followed but she did. He began taking out things from the cabinets, fridge and pantry. She watched as he began to cook. They talked and had an actual talk as he cooked.
"It smells good." She was sitting close by as he was making the food. After it was finally done he plated it and they both walked over to the dining table. She sat across from him and he put her plate in front of her.
"I made honey garlic chicken with a side of veggies and jasmine rice" He began to eat.
She nodded with respect and said "Thank you" as she was now beginning to eat as well. A few minutes go by and Wesley pops in and sit with them.
"So, how's Elliot's cooking" He questioned as he poured himself a cup of red whine.
"Really good. I didn't know he could cook" She sheepishly replied.
"Just one of my many hidden talents" He grinned. Zoey started at Elliot. He maybe a jerk but he really went out of his way to cook her a meal. She had some much thoughts about him now. Something about him made her feel different. She began to Daze out until pop she fell right from her chair and onto the floor.
As Zoey was unconscious she felt face being tapped. Her head was hurting badly. Elliot slowly picked up her body and made his way upstairs into his room as Wesley followed. There he had placed her on his bed and placed his blanket on her body. She was at peace while she was asleep.
"She may need to see a doctor" Wesley explained to his friend. Elliot rolled his eyes as he placed his hand along her forehead. Her head was a bit warm to touch.
He then pointed at her visible ears and tail that were exposed "Are you going to explain why she has cat ears and a tail" He moved his hand away from her forehead. "Just get me some water. I'll stay by her side till she wakes up."
"Alright. I'll leave it up to you." The door closed. Elliot was now left with a teenage girl on his bed. This was not how he wanted the rest of his day to go but it did. Wesley brought him the water and they talked for a little while. Welsey left once again leaving Elliot alone. Realizing that she was sound asleep he diced it was best to leave her be. He sat at his desk and made a few calls.
A few hours later
Zoey sprung awake but was greeted by a headache. "Ow" is all she could say. She took a moment and looked around to see where she was and she noticed wasn't home. What could have happened?
Turing to her left and she saw Elliot sleeping at his desk. Then it hit her. "I was in Elliot's room. I was in Elliot's bed. What in the world happened?!" She begins to panic as she had so many questions. She saw her phone was next to her head charging. Upon unlocking the phone she come to see that she had few missed calls. Mark tried calling a few times. "He must think I hate him" she mumbles
The time said 11pm. "Shit, it is way pass curfew. I know my dad is probably having a fit right now." She takes off the blanket and swings her legs off the bed.
Suddenly Elliot slowly being to awaken. He looked different. He was wearing sweats and tang top. That's different in her eyes. His eyes widen when he saw Zoey sitting up. "Finally you're awake" He stood up from his seat. He sat right next to her.
He leans in and places his hand along her forehead. Zoey began to blush at his touch. Zoey has have had a crush on him but it was a hidden crush that no one knows about. So, when he touched her forehead heart began to race. "How are you feeling?" His voice was still in it's sleepy stage so it was sort deep but sexy to hear.
"I- I- What happened? Why am I still here? And why am I in you bed?" she tried to divert his attention to my questions. He removed his hand and cleared his throat.
He scratched the back of his head and we locked eyes. "You passed out. Well more like blacked out. I Wesley wanted to take you to the Emergency room but I told him no because your tail and ears were out."
She wasn't sure why she passed out . It just happened. Probably just overworked and tired. "I need to get home…" she mumbled.
"I took care of that. Your parents know that you are safe" He did that for me? "You should rest some more. Tomorrow is Saturday. No need to rush home. You can stay in my room. I'll sleep downstairs instead of my desk." He got up and patted her head. After patting her head he began to walk to the door. Something in her makes her leaps out his bed and goes over to him holding his hand.
Elliot wasn't sure of what her intentions were when he felt her hand touches his. He turns around and they locked eyes again. She pulls her hand away and chuckles nervously. "I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused" He smirks and leans against the door.
"Is there more you want to say he teased" Her face turned red. He was right. Was there something she wanted. She never acted this way towards Mark. But Mark always gave off the impression that he didn't want more. She was conflicted as to what she wanted. Elliot was hot after all. She stared at his body. His muscles was visible through the shirt.
"N- No" She moves her arms up and down in a frantic. He laughs and she was now even more embarrassed. She covers her face and he uncovers it. He brings her head up by putting his finger under her chin. There eyes locked and there lips were inches apart.
She wasn't sure what she was feeling at that moment. There was nothing but butterflies in her stomach. The fact that they were so close made her want it even more. She had completely forgot about Mark. It was all about Elliot right at this very moment. "Elly…" She whispers.
"Zoey…" He whispers back he pulled her close with his free hand. Her body now touching his. They both lean in and their lips touch. It was like a spark or something but they end up making out. He picks her up and guides her to the bed. They beginning kissing some more as he was on top of her.
The air was hot. Elliot took off his shirt. Zoey then took off her shirt. She was now in her bra. Elliot kissed on her neck and she let out a gasp. Elliot pulled away to breath. They looked at each other and he cradled her gently making sure she was safe. "Are you sure about this" he asked to gain consent. She nodded and the kissed some more. Before anything goes any further the door to his room swings open. Wesley stood before them causing them to break apart. Zoey grabbed the blanket. Even though she wasn't naked she might have been. Wesley just folded his arms as the two of them didn't dare to look at him. It was awkward. Just the three of them. Zoey quickly put on her shirt. And sat their with her head hung low. A few seconds later she got off the bed. Grabbed her bag, phone and left the room.
"I'll drive you home!" Elliot called out not looking at Wesley. He slipped on his sneakers. Grabbed his jacket and keys. He left the room and followed Zoey.
They got into his car and the both of them didn't say a word. It was already as awkward as ever knowing that they made out and if Wesley didn't interrupt they would have gone all the way. After a few minutes they pulled up to her house. They sat in silence for a moment.
"Thanks for the drive…" She whispers. He nodded.
"Anytime" He responds. She nods and gets out of the car. She walks over to his side and waves. He waves back and she walks to her front door. Once she enters he drives off.
She closes the door to her house and has her back against the door. She slides down and has her knees to her face. "I made out with my boss. I almost had sex with him" She stood up and ran to her room. She took off her shirt and saw the mark left on her neck. "I am so dead."
