Okay, sorry about that cliff hanger last time, but I typed almost 1,500 words! Also I'm going to start using symbols for swears because I promise you a lot are going to come.
Last time:
I immediately jumped out, expecting to land on the floor or something.
Now:
I tuck-and-rolled, only to crash into the wall. I opened my eyes, staring at the brown paper before me. A box. I was in a !?(%ing box. I looked up at Dan's face, hundreds of feet above, and clawed at the cardboard, managing only to scratch the surface.
Dan stared down at me in awe " Holy $#¡Г..." he reached in, but stopped when I cowered away from his hand. He frowned, for unknown reasons, and reached up to his night stand.
I heard a light snap, which shook me to the bone. His hand came back into view, with a Hershey's chocolate piece in between his thumb and fore finger. He held it out to me, watching with calm eyes. I watched him with less calm orbs, but tentatively took the chocolate.
His lips twitched upwards as I did so. My heart was racing at 100 miles a minute. I was staring at the ground, shivering in a tight ball, tail twitching and ears flat against my head.
I felt something warm touch my back and froze as his finger started to rub my back. I finally glanced up at him, seeing his palm above me to the right, and his face just beyond. The obvious confusion and reluctance in his eyes was enough to soothe me. I leaned back a bit into his finger, holding in a purr.
He sighed, covering me in a warm air. I felt his finger lift away as he went cross-legged, watching me. I watched him also, until he finally found his voice. " Do... Do ya talk?" I sighed exasperatedly. " Yes... I talk." He nodded, and I could tell he was thinking hard.
" Take your time." I mumbled. Not like I was going anywhere soon anyway. " If you don't mind me asking... what... exactly are you?" I sighed. " I'm a neko. A tiny Гμ€£in' neko." He blinked in shock, then let out a chuckle. " What?" I asked, wanting to know what was so funny.
" I didn't realize you swore. It surprised me." I smiled a bit at him, turning my body to face him better. " I live in a house with you three. Not knowing how is impossible." We both laughed at that.
Everything went quiet then, even James' cussing. It was almost unbearable actually. " So uhrm... I'm Kyleen... " " I'm Dan." He awkwardly put his finger in front of me, which I just as awkwardly shook with my hand.
I snapped back into reality with a glance around me. My ears flattened, and I brought my knees to my chest. He watched me quietly, as I tried to comfort myself.
I felt the ground move around my body and squeaked as I tumbled backwards out of the box. I landed on my stomach, and gripped Dan's carpet like a lifeline. I looked up at Dan as he put the box into his closet.
" Y-... You let me out?" I asked, assuming this was just so he could start torturing me or something. " Yeah. I thought you'd prefer to be out and about." He walked over and flopped back onto his bed, grabbing a ball.
I stared at him. He didn't seem to realize I was still there as he threw the ball at a hoop on the wall. The ball rebounded and rolled to a stop a foot away. He sighed and sat up to grab it, surprised to see me.
I stood, and shuffled my feet awkwardly. He grabbed the ball and set it back to where he originally had it. Yes, it kept getting more and more awkward. I finally scampered off, crawling out under the door.
I glanced both ways, before running off towards James' room again. I stopped in the doorway and looked at him. He was sitting at his window, staring out into the distance. I crept back over to the hole and ran back to my home.
And that was why I didn't update for a long time! I decided I should lay low. Dan and I are on good terms I guess? Russell still thinks I'm a mouse, but every time he says mouse I see Dan and James give each other 'The Look' and smile a bit. I don't like being their little secret. Makes me feel like a birthday present. Which, I swear to Гμ€£ing God if they stick me in one I'll kill them in their sleep. James, when he does see me, sort of just waves. They even put the mouse traps in places where I won't get trapped! Well, I'm tired as heck, So I'm gonna sleep. Night!
