The SWAT Kats are owned by Hanna Barbera and the Tremblay Brothers. I own the OCs.
There will be more action in the very near future. But for now, we get to see how Rolf handles Stacy's little secret plus Tim's attempt to make Candice forget her worries for the day.
I want to personally thank MisaRae my wonderful Co-Author and dear friend. If you are a fan of Inuyasha at all, go and check out her stories.
After the cadets were interviewed and they returned behind the gates of the academy, Felina turned to them and said, "You three really surprised me. I was expecting at least one of you to say something that would have embarrassed the academy or at least me. However, you all held your composure and answered the questions very well."
"We wouldn't do that Felina," Marissa said. "Every one of us wants to succeed here and surpass your expectations."
"I'm glad to hear that Marissa," Felina said then glanced at her watch then back to her recruits. She then asked, "This day is shot; can I give you a ride to the hospital Marissa?"
"Definitely!" Marissa shouted. "I want to see how Rolf is doing with both of his problems."
"What are you talking about Marissa?" Katerina asked.
"I want to see how his leg is doing and I want to see how well he is wooing Stacy. Knowing him, by now he has either chased her away or he has her wrapped securely around his little finger," Marissa responded.
"Stacy, as in Stacy McGrady?" Felina asked as she whipped her head towards Marissa.
"I guess, she never told us her last name," Marissa answered
"Well if it is Stacy McGrady, your brother will have met his match," Felina said. "Stacy is as sweet as she is good looking. Just ask her ex-husband. She can be very affectionate and the nicest she-cat on the planet. But cross her or her son and she will lash out with every ounce of strength she has."
"She is divorced?" Marissa asked.
"Yes she is," Felina answered. "She wanted to become a cop and her ex wanted a stay at home housewife to cater to his every want and desire. After she gave birth to their kitten, he strayed with another she-cat. Well Stacy found out and filed for a divorce the next day. With the help of her mother, Stacy went ahead with her dream and became a cop and a damn good one too."
"Wait a minute," Katerina said. "She looks too young to have a kitten."
"Stacy married when she graduated high school," Felina said. "When she came to fill out the application for the academy, she had her son with her, very cute kid by the way."
"Wow, she sound like a pawful, I hope my brother can handle dating someone like her?" Marissa asked.
"I don't know her that well Marissa. However, if Rolf sees something in her that has attracted him to her, I have a good feeling they will be a good match for each other," Felina said. "Come on, let's get you to the hospital and I can get these two back to my apartment."
They arrived at the hospital fifteen minutes later and Marissa got out of Felina's car. After she said her so longs, she walked towards the hospital's ER entrance and entered. She went over to the reception desk and said, "Hi, I'm here to see my brother, Rolf Smith."
The receptionist looked up at Marissa and said, "He already has a visitor with him."
"But I am his sister!" Marissa said.
"You are?" the receptionist asked as she looked up from her desk. "Then who is that girl he is with?"
"That might be his girlfriend," Marissa answered. "May I go back and see my brother now?"
"Bay three," the receptionist said while handing Marissa a badge.
Marissa took the badge and applied it to her shirt, right above her left breast. She then said, "Thank you." and walked into the ER. She walked down the rows of curtains until she stood in front of a large number 3 painted into the floor. Marissa turned to her left and opened the curtain and saw her brother sleeping in a hospital bed with his left leg wrapped up in a bandage. Her focus then shifted to Rolf's right and noticed Stacy sitting next to him holding his right paw in hers. "How's is he feeling?" Marissa asked.
Stacy looked up and saw Marissa standing at the foot of Rolf's bed with a very concerned look on her face. She answered, "The bullet went cleanly through his leg. They cleaned and sewed up the entry and exit wounds." Stacy caressed Rolf's right paw then said, "He woke up during the procedure and gripped my paw in his. He is such a nice guy; I'm surprised he has not been snagged by someone else."
"My brother has not been too lucky in that department Stacy," Marissa said as she went to Stacy's side. She looked down at her brother then said, "His last girlfriend wanted him only to impress her friends. When Rolf found out she was using him, he was devastated and swore off dating. Then he met you." Marissa pulled up a chair and sat down next to Stacy before she turned to her and said, "I heard you have a son."
Stacy took her paw back from Rolf and held it in her lap. After a few seconds, she looked at Marissa in the eyes and said, "Yes, I do have a son and he is my life. I wasn't expecting to start dating until Roger was a little older. However, your brother came along and to be honest with you, I kind of like him. Rolf seems to be the kind of tom that I would like my son to look up to and maybe if Bast will allow it, become his step-father."
"Don't you think it's a little too soon to be talking about stuff like that Stacy?" Marissa asked.
"Yes and no. Roger needs a good male role model in his life and his father is definitely not it," Stacy said before taking Marissa's left paw in hers and saying, "Look, I'm not trying to string Rolf along and make him think he is obligated to be a father to Roger. I plan on telling him that I have a son as soon as he is able to comprehend what I am telling him. But Roger and I are a packaged deal. If Rolf wants to date me, he must know that my son comes first. I will not push Roger aside for him or any other tom."
"My brother would never do that Stacy. If he likes you, which I think he does. He will do anything to win your trust and your heart. That includes Roger. Rolf actually likes kittens and he told me on several occasions he wishes he had one of his own, with the right she-cat of course. And that might just be you Stacy," Marissa said as she gave Stacy's paw a gentle squeeze.
"I think I would like that Marissa and so would Roger," Stacy said.
"Ugh, what hit me?" Rolf asked as he started to wake up.
"Rolf!" Marissa yelled as she let go of Stacy's paw and wrapped her arms around her brother's neck. She looked him in the eyes, lightly punched his right shoulder, and said, "You had me so worried about you and if you ever pull stunt like that again, I'll make sure to kill you myself!"
Rolf rubbed his right shoulder and said, "I promise not to get shot again anytime soon sis." He looked to his left and saw Stacy sitting there with a smile on her face. He then said, "I figured you would have left hours ago."
"I wanted to. However, you wouldn't let go of my paw. You are kind of strong," Stacy said.
"Sorry about that Stacy," Rolf said.
"Don't worry about it. Actually I'm glad I stayed, it gave me a chance to talk to your sister," Stacy said.
"Oh, and what did you and Marissa talk about" Rolf asked.
Stacy was about to tell him exactly what they talked about when a very young kitten burst into the bay yelling, "Mommy!"
Stacy turned in time to see Roger running towards her at full speed. She reached out with her arms and grabbed her kitten as soon as he was close enough for her to do so. Then picked him up and kissed his cheek. "Did you behave for Grandma Roger?" She asked.
"Yes mommy, I was good. Why did Grandma have to drop me off here?" Roger asked.
"I'm sorry dear but grandma had a few things to do," Stacy replied.
"Ok," Roger said. He turned to the pair of cats in the room and asked, "Who are they?"
Stacy turned to Rolf and Marissa and said, "Rolf, Marissa, this is my son Roger." Stacy turned her head to Roger and said, "Roger, meet Mister and Miss Smith."
Marissa and Rolf looked at the little kitten and noticed he looked exactly like Stacy with the exception of his eyes were gold instead of hazel. Marissa left Rolf, crouched down in front of Roger, and said, "Felina was right, he is cute." She extended her right paw to him and said, "Hi Roger, you can call me Marissa."
Roger took Marissa's paw in his and shook it with all of his might. He then said, "Hi Marissa, you're cute too."
Marissa blushed ever so slightly from his compliment, then said, "And you are a little charmer yourself Roger. How old are you?"
"I'm this old," Roger responded holding up three fingers.
"Roger, say hello to Rolf," Stacy said.
Roger let go of his mother and went over to Rolf's bedside. He looked at Rolf's leg and asked, "You got an owie?"
Stacy had to suppress a chuckle when Roger asked his question. She tried her best to cover up her mouth with her paws, but Rolf noticed her smile. He smiled right along with her and responded, "Yes, Roger, I got an owie. Would you like to watch a little TV?"
"Yes!" Roger responded.
Rolf slid over in his bed and made room for Roger to sit next to him.
Marissa took a hold of Roger around his waist and helped the kitten onto the bed. Roger rested his head next to Rolf's while Rolf switched on the TV.
Stacy watched as Roger snuggled in close to Rolf while the guys watched some show aimed at very young kittens. She also noticed how Rolf laughed right along with Roger and how Rolf seemed to enjoy being with Roger. Stacy wiped a small tear away from her right eye then asked, "Marissa, can I talk to you, outside for a minute?"
"Sure Stacy," Marissa answered. She watched her brother ruffle Roger's hair with a large smile on his face for a minute then followed Stacy outside of the bay. She closed the curtain behind her and noticed Stacy standing alone holding her paws in front of her hips. Marissa asked, "Are you alright Stacy?"
"Ever since I caught my ex-husband sleeping around and kicked his tail to the curb, Roger hasn't had a good male role model in his life. Seeing my son with Rolf just now made me realize how much Roger needs to have that. Your brother really seems to enjoy being around Roger and it sort of scares me. I don't want my son getting attached to him if Rolf does not plan on sticking around," Stacy said.
Marissa went over to Stacy and hugged her. She then said, "My brother honestly likes being around kittens. Seeing him smile while he is with your son warms my heart. To be perfectly honest with you Stacy, I think my brother would be an excellent father to Roger. Just give him a chance to prove it to you and to Roger."
Stacy hugged Marissa back and said, "I'll give him that chance to be that tom Roger and I both need. Let's head back in before Roger twists Rolf's arm into watching that show with the clown, I hate that clown with a passion."
They returned to the bay and noticed Roger curled up on Rolf's bed, fast asleep with Rolf's left arm draped over his shoulder.
Marissa leaned over to Stacy and said, "See, I told you he likes kittens."
"So he does," Stacy responded. "Do you think you can take Roger down to the Cafeteria and get him a snack, while I have a talk with your brother?"
"Certainly," Marissa said. She walked over to the bed and gave the sleeping kitten a tiny shake.
Roger opened his right eye and let a loud mew escape his mouth as he yawned. "Why did you wake me up? I was having a great dream."
Marissa smiled at him then asked, "How about some Ice Cream while your mother and my brother have a little grown-up talk, ok?"
Roger un-curled himself and almost bound off of the bed and into Marissa's arms. As Marissa put him down, he answered, "I love Ice Cream!"
"I do too Roger. Let's leave these two alone while we have fun!" Marissa said as she and Roger left the bay.
Stacy watched them leave then turned to face Rolf. She walked over to his side, took his paw in both of her paws, then asked, "Now that you know I have a child, do you still want to date me?"
Rolf did like Stacy and he also liked being around Roger so her question threw him off guard. He looked into her eyes and replied, "Why wouldn't I? Stacy, I knew there was something about you I liked other than your beautiful face and great body. Now I know what that thing is, you are capable of giving love un-conditionally to another and your son is proof of that. I don't know if my blabber mouth sister told you I have not had much luck in the dating game. I always seemed to be on the losing side. If you would allow me to, I would like to try again, this time with you."
"She mentioned something about that Rolf," Stacy said. "Alright, I'll date you. However, my son must come first before anything else."
Rolf squeezed her paws tighter and said, "I would not expect anything less of you Stacy and if Roger would let me, I would like to be part of his life too."
Stacy leaned forward and said, "I was hoping you would say that, he likes you, and so do I."
She leaned forward to kiss his cheek but Rolf unexpectedly turned his head and their lips met instead.
Both of their eyes went wide for a second before they let the kiss take over and they savored their first of hopefully many more kisses together.
"Mommy, we're back.. Why are you kissing Rolf mommy?" Roger asked.
Stacy broke their kiss and went over to her son. She crouched down to his level and asked, "Roger, how would you feel if mommy started seeing more of Rolf?"
"What do you mean mommy?" Roger asked.
"Mommy and Rolf like each other and we want to be with each other, like your daddy and I used to be. Do you understand honey?" she asked her son.
Roger was slightly confused by his mother's statement. He looked past her to Rolf and asked, "Are you going to be my new daddy?"
Rolf was not expecting such a question so suddenly, especially from such a young kitten. He lifted his head to Stacy and noticed her trembling ever so slightly, then over to Marissa who mouthed back to him, 'You know the right answer Rolf.', and finally back to Roger. He smiled at the kitten and answered, "With time and as long as your mother doesn't kick my tail to the curb, I think I would like to be your daddy Roger."
Roger gave Marissa his Ice Cream cone and ran to Rolf. He jumped onto the bed and hugged him tight.
Rolf returned his hug as he looked to his girlfriend and noticed she was smiling again with tears of happiness in her eyes.
Tim and Candice finished their waterskiing trip around the lake. They each took turns on the water with the other one taking the controls of the boat. While Tim went easy on Candice while she was being towed, she showed no mercy in turn. Candice was very heavy with the throttle, causing Tim to fall forward almost every time.
Tim parked the boat by the dock and tied it off. After he shut the boat off, he turned to Candice and asked, "Who taught you how to drive a boat like that?"
Candice was stowing the skis in the hold when she heard Tim's question. She turned her head towards him and answered, "My uncle taught me how to drive a car as well as a boat."
"That explains everything," Tim said as he tried to dislodge some water from his left ear.
Candice finished putting the skis and tow rope away and stood up. She went over to Tim wrapped her arms around his neck, then said, "That was so much fun. Especially watching you face plant in the lake. Thank you Tim." She then kissed him.
Tim put his paws on her hips and kissed her back.
"Ooo. Mr. Jones has a girlfriend," they heard from the water.
Tim and Candice turned towards the voice and noticed a teenaged female girl wearing a yellow swimsuit. He asked, "Aren't you not to be out of your parent's sight Avery?"
"The tide swept me down here Mr. Jones," Avery responded. "So, what is this she-cat to you?"
"That is none of your business Avery," Tim replied without removing his paws. "Why don't you paddle yourself back home?"
"Fine," Avery responded then flipped her bangs out of her face before she said, "By the way, you both can be seen by the entire lake, so keep it rated 'PG'. She then padded back towards her dock.
They both watched Avery paddle herself back towards her house. They turned towards each other, quickly kissed again, and Candice asked, "Can we really be seen by everyone on the lake?"
Tim looked around and noticed a few boats with its occupants holding binoculars to their eyes. He smirked and turned to Candice. "There maybe a few spots on the lake that can see us," he responded as he pulled her closer and said, "And I don't care if they see me kissing the she-cat that I am madly in love with." With that said, Tim kissed her yet again.
Candice kissed him back and let her paws slide down his back to his butt. She moaned into his kiss then gave him a good squeeze.
Tim groaned when Candice groped him then picked her up in his arms without breaking their kiss and carried her further up the dock. He laid her down and kissed and nibbled her neck while his paws started to caress her legs.
Candice let out a moan in pleasure which actually sounded like a dull roar. She then moved her paws up to his cheeks, grabbed a firm hold on the dense fur, and pulled him away from her neck. She looked into his eyes and said, "Keep it up Tim and you will know how it feels to be hunted by a ravenous lioness!"
"As wonderful as it sounds to be your dinner, I think I'll pass," Tim said to her then smiled like a Cheshire Cat.
Candice noticed the grin on his face and asked, "And just what does my tomfriend have going through his mind, perhaps something dirty?"
"Only if you want it to be, my dear," Tim replied and stroked her cheek. "You said you wanted to lie in the sun and have it warm your body? It's only about three in the afternoon so we have plenty of time to lounge on the dock and let the sun work its magic Candice before we have to get dressed for a romantic candle lit dinner in town and possibly a stroll along the water later."
"That sounds wonderful Tim," She stood up and grasped the straps of her swimsuit with her paws. She then did something Tim was not expecting at all. Candice slipped the straps from her shoulders and started to remove her racing styled swimsuit right out in the open.
Tim quickly averted his eyes and was about to grab a towel to cover Candice's body before everyone who was watching them managed to get an eyeful of her body.
Candice watched his movements and then laughed as her swimsuit hit the ground. She then said, "You can turn around silly; my important parts are fully covered. Er.. sort of."
Tim opened his eyes and looked towards his girlfriend. He noticed she was now wearing a red bikini that barely covered her chest and her lower section. "Whew, I thought you were going to go Commando for a minute there, although that bikini does not leave much to the imagination."
"That's the idea Tim. I don't want any visible tan lines in my fur. Be a dear, and get a few cold drinks for us while I set up a few towels for us," Candice said then blew him a kiss.
"I can do that but I don't think even sitting on an Iceberg could cool you off. You look hot in that bikini," Tim said before he walked off towards the house to get the drinks.
Candice set up two large towels on the dock in the direct sun light. She laid herself down on her back with her tail resting on her right side on the towel to the left. Once she was comfortable, Candice brought in her left foot so her left leg was bent and her knee was pointing towards the sky.
"I wasn't sure what you wanted to drink so I brought a cooler with a small assortment of," Tim started to say but he stopped as soon as his gaze fell on Candice lying in the sun. His eyes wandered over her shapely body and stopped at her very kissable lips. He slowly went to her, put the cooler down, and lay down next to her. His desire to not only kiss her, but to pick her up and carry her to the bedroom increased significantly the longer his eyes looked at her.
Candice felt Tim's gaze on her and slowly turned onto her side to face him. She noticed the lust for her in his eyes and said as she placed her left paw on his right cheek, "Tim, dear. I might be the most beautiful she-cat in your eyes and I might be a little brazen in public. But I'm not going to let you make love to me on the dock."
"As much as I find you incredibly sexy, I promise, I was not going to try to make love to you on the dock," Tim said then leaned forward and kissed her. He withdrew from his kiss and said, "Now, when we are back from dinner, that is another issue all together."
Candice slowly slapped his cheek then said, "You are going to have to amp your game up a few notches if you are planning on sleeping with me tonight Tim." She then turned back over on her back and said, "I need a pillow, give me your arm."
Tim extended his left arm and slipped it under Candice's head before he let the sun's warm rays lull him into a deep sleep.
Candice heard his breathing slow down and decided that his arm was not comfortable enough for her. She turned onto her left side, rested her head on his chest, and brought her left leg up to rest on his legs. Candice then kissed his cheek and said, "This is much better Tim and I hope you eat a decent amount of food because tonight, you are going to need every ounce of energy you have to pleasure your soon-to-be-wife." Candice closed her eyes and let sleep overtake her body.
