Ali sat in Cameron's lap lifelessly.
Cameron couldn't help but smile slightly; despite their situation
"If you want to act lifeless, why not do it beside me?"
Ali looked up at him alarmed, and suddenly was restored back to life.
"You want to get rid of me already?!"
He asked with a shocked expression. Cameron's lips twitched,
"That's not what I am saying-"
"I knew it!"
Ali shouted, cutting him off and sitting up on his lap facing him with a slight glare.
"When we get there and I go back home and you go back to the palace you're just going to forget about me, and pretend I never existed!”
his doe eyes then began to become heavy with tears.
Cameron instantly became alarmed and began to wipe his tears,
"Of course not, how could I forget you like that? We can still visit each other"
"But," Ali looked up at him tear filled eyes, "you won't be with me all day anymore"
"I know, and I'm sorry…" Cameron whispered, drawing Ali closer to him in a hug. After a while he pulled away and gave Ali a small kiss on his left chubby cheek.
"now stop crying, you'll make me sad"
Ali sniffled and wiped his tears,
"Good boy," Cameron praised smilingly
Ali couldn't help but think about how they came to be here: he and Cameron were just sitting down together when two royal soldiers came out of nowhere! A crying Anila behind them. They were forcefully taken from the generous family, and shoved into the royal carriage to be brought 'home'. Ali growled under his breath when he remembered that stupid neighbor! Holding a pouch of coins, and giggling as he watched them leave. It was as obvious as the grass was green who ratted them out. He was gonna fu-. Ali was then lifted up slightly and brought even deeper into Camerons arms making him lose his train of thoughts.
He looked up at Cameron questionably.
"Don't think about depressing things''
he said simply. Cameron then ran his hands through Ali's fluffy, black hair, and began to pet Ali’s hair softly. All of Ali's thoughts flew out of his head the moment Cameron started petting him. A small purr resonated throughout the carriage. Cameron then lay Ali’s head on his shoulders while continuing the petting action. Ali snuggled into his embrace and his purring became louder. Cameron then glanced at the servant who was looking at them with a bewildered look, a cold one. The servant, as if bothered by this display, immediately looked away.
It took a full week for Ali and Cameron to reach Elfin city. During this week Ali was extremely clingy, he would even follow Cameron to the bathroom if Cameron let him, which Cameron didn't. Each time this happened Ali would whine about how Cameron didn't love him. To this Cameron merely placed him in his lap and gave him belly rubs, and Ali would successfully and completely forget about the conversation and focus on purring happily.
At this moment Ali looked silently at the bustling city outside. The medieval clothing and houses will always look so new to him…
"Ali.." Ali immediately turned around and looked at Cameron
"Yes Cam?" He answered.
Cameron placed his head on Ali's smaller shoulder.
"When we get there...I'll send you a letter to come visit as soon as possible or I'll just come visit, whichever is possible...okay?"
Ali nodded.
"Or I can sneak away and come visit you!" Ali said mischievously.
Cameron chuckled, "We'll be under high surveillance so i don't think that will be a possibility, kitten".
Cameron murmured, he couldn't help but raise his hands and give Ali a small scratch under his chin. Ali flicked his tail happily,
"you never know," he purred out, "I might succeed," he said, watching Cameron's hands leave his chin.
Suddenly the carriage came to a stop.
"We are here young master Ali!"
Cameron glanced out the window at the standing figures in front of the mansion and calmly took Ali out of his lap. But how could Ali leave just like that? He clung to Cameron's clothes and gave him a pitiful look. Cameron sighed quietly
"Be good, remember what we just talked about" Ali unhappily let his clothes go and Cameron placed him on the seat beside him. Just then the carriage door was opened and a guard appeared to escort Ali out.
"Young master" he called while presenting the open carriage. Ali frowned but got up unwillingly and left the carriage once he was out, he looked back at Cameron who waved goodbye to him. The door to the carriage was then shut before he could wave back. Before Ali could curse he was suddenly lifted up and hugged tightly. The scent of sandalwood assaulted his nose…
'Ew' he thought with disgust.
"Thank you" he heard the man saying to one of the guards.
"Your Honor it is our duty"
he heard one of the guards answering, the carriage then started moving.
Ali immediately wriggled out of the man's arm. The man, a bit startled, put him back down. Ali then turned towards the carriage and watched it leave.
Once the carriage was out of sight he heard someone say his name,
"Ali.." the voice said; It was deep and familiar yet unfamiliar. Ali turned to look at the sound and was greeted with the face of the Duke, his ‘Father’. He was tall and nobly dressed, he also had a slight beard and many would consider him handsome. His eyes were then drawn to the other people he had ignored. There was a boy who seemed to be seventeen, who had black hair and was tall. He also had a bit of muscle for his age. Then there was a girl, and she was dressed very well and wore luxurious jewelry, instead of black, her hair was a flaming red and like him she also had a pair of cat ears and a tail. Lastly there was another boy who seemed only a little older than him but not by much, he had dark red hair with black roots and seemed to be a little tall for his age. All of these people possessed great looks and all looked at him happily. Who could these people be but his supposed 'family?'. After looking them over Ali bowed his head and said nothing.
"I greet the Duke, your Honor" Ali said coldly to the man who called him his 'Father’
