Love is Mystical... (p)

[Rot]

Arabella

Rot stared lovingly at the Plains, imagining Arabella. Where was she? It has been a few days since Rot had seen her, and his heart only ached more and more everyday. Licking a paw and bringing it over his ear, Rot wondered if he would ever see Arabella ever again. Did she even like him? What if she never came back, because she didn't love him back. As if right on time, a sweet scent caught his nose. Whirling around, Rot purred, "Ara! You're back!"

(I was wondering what to name this thread when the song 'Love is Mystical' came on!)

(Same way I name threads)

Arabella had decided after only a day once Rot admitted that he liked her that she didn't return her feelings. Of course, that was her concious desision. Talking to Analia had helped her realize that she did sort of like him and wasn't just the caring type of cat. It was a few days still before she acctually decided to confront Rot, mainly she didn't feel like tracking someone down. She was a terrible tracker. She could, acctually, fight quite well, but she couldn't track at all. Unless it was prey. Prey was easy to track, especially on an empty stomach. She rolled her eyes at herself. Was she really that desperate to think of something else? Wasn't love a good thing? A small voice in her head said 'no' but she ignored it. "Stinger," she greeted with a small nod of her head, a small smile on her face.

[Rot]

Standing in front of Arabella, Rot felt a lot better that she was safe. "Where have you been?" Asked Rot, wondering why she had been gone for a while.

Arabella ducked her head, "Coming to terms." she said, drawing in a deep breath before looking up and speaking again before she lost the nerve that she already had so little of. "I'm sorry it's been so long to come to terms, but I wanted you to know... I sort of like you too." she said, not able to bring herself to meet his eye as she continued, gazing down once again, "I just... didn't want to admit it at first. I'm still not sure I do."

[Rot]

Rot couldn't help his loud purring. He felt over joyed that Arabella liked him back. Taking a step closer, Rot brushed his cheek against hers. "I'm glad you do," Rot purred, "I was also worried that you might have been hurt."

[Deleted]

Arabella bit her lip slightly, keeping herself from tensing. Sure she liked him, odd as it was to think that, but she wasn't sure that she liked liking him. It didn't make much sense to her, but minds really didn't ussually make sense anyway. Rather than focusing on that, she took a step back with a look of completely fake shock. "I, hurt? How could that thought possible cross your mind?"

[Rot]

Rot smiled as Arabella spoke. "I am not sure," Rot meowed, "I was worried though. No doubt about it!" Purring quietly, Rot asked again, "Where did you go?"

[Deleted]

Arabella shrugged. "Here and there. I was mostly at my den."

[Rot]

"Oh..." Rot meowed, not willing to say that he had spent most of his FreeTime on the hill of the Plains, hoping to catch a glimpse of Arabella. "Thank you, for meeting me again." He purred.

Arabella blinked, looking confused. "Why wouldn't I" she asked and then gave a small smile.[/b]

[Rot]

Rot took a deep breath and meowed, "I was afraid that you didn't like me, because of... this." When he said the the word 'this', he flicked his tail, indicating his whole body.

Arabella's eyes widened a bit at Rot's words. "Why would you even think that? Trust me, I put looks very low on the list of consideration of who I like. One time the most handsome cat you have ever seen told me he liked me. I reacted by scraping his face. Deeply. If he didn't get an infection or something, that face sure isn't perfect anymore." she chuckled at the story. It had happened a long time ago, but thinking of how he probably got along now always put a smile on her face. "But that's not the point, don't think people judge you based on your looks. Because they do. But don't let it get to you because I don't, and I will fight anyone who does." she smiled warmly.

[Rot]

Rot slightly purred as Arabella told her story, when she finished talking to him, Rot's ears pricked up. Fight? Wow... "You really did that? Clawed the cat's face? Who was the cat? And why did you claw him if he was so handsome?"

[Deleted]

Arabella chuckled slightly. "Every cat in the area adored him. I don't know what they saw in him though. He was an arrogant jerk who thought he could get any girl he wanted. He didn't really defend himself all that well though. Was completely shocked when I said no."

[Rot]

"I was thinking you would say 'no' to me." Rot meowed quietly. Getting a little louder, he meowed, "Why do you think he chose you?"
