~Present day~
I sat across from Nepeta, sweat glistening down my face, when it happened...she leaned in and kissed me. Then I FUCKIN WOKE UP. "Seahorsedad I was havin a good dream!" I groaned as my lusus got me out of bed. "It was about that girl again I'm sure." he said. "SHE ISN'T JUST SOME GIRL!" I spat. "Which one is it again? Feferi?" He asked. "I'm over her! This one is Nep." His eyes widened. "Nepeta? The olive blooded catgirl?" He asked. I nodded. She was a landweller, true, and even worse she was a lowblood, but I didn't care. She's the only exception to my rule of no landwellers. Seahorsedad shook his head and sighed, trotting away. Then I remembered, Nep and I were supposed to see each other today, which wasn't as usual now that she had Eq to hang around...whatever, it's her moirail and she had a right to spend time with him. But soon I would have her attention once more, and Eq will no longer engross me...because I, Eridan Ampora, will make Nepeta Leijon my
matesprit! If I could figure out how to ask that is....I'll figure out later. Now I have a friend to go see. Once I get ready.
-Nepeta's POV-
I stood there getting dressed, thinking hard-who knows why getting dressed is the time to make life decisions-but it is to me. Eridan was coming over and taking me on our weekly walk. It was something we did just to catch up. The flushed tension had grown between us lately, I felt it. It was really quite alarming. Was he flushed for me? Am I flushed back.? These thoughts cleared my head when I put on my hat and heard a knock on the door.
-Back to Eridan's POV-
I knocked on the door with a small surprise behind my back. She soon opened the door, greeting me with her bright smile. I smiled, hugging her back with my free arm, holding out a violet flower for her with the other.She blushed and smiled, accepting it. "Thank you..." she said. "This is new..." she looked up at me. "What's the catch?" "The catch?...It's Nepeta Appreciation Day."
