Love cannot be chosen, love is found and for a certain skunk he has found it in the strangest place. Though his life is odd and often filled with troublesome feline annoyances, he still loves Sora with all his heart...
Look, I know I haven't actually put of the rest of the chapters for the first part, but come on... I'm being paid $50 to write the second part and I'm not going to pass it up.
Anyway... This may take a while so yeah... wish me luck!
From the moment I picked up the letter to read it to the moment I finished it my mood went from normal to excited beyond belief. Why? It’s because of something I signed up for, maybe about four months ago. It was a contest to meet one of my favorite authors of all time. Thing is, no one knows what the author even looks like, if it’s male or female, species, nothing. But I do now. Most think that S. Rivera is a woman; then again the way the author writes and what they write make it hard to pick a gender.
It’s easy to say that I was nervous, standing on the doorstep of S. Rivera, top selling author of all time. Then again I felt as though I was going to throw up when I heard the door open. This was it, I was going to meet my all-time favorite author, and there was no doubt about it.
“Hello?”
I almost couldn’t breathe. There, right there standing before me was a feline, cream colored fur, blue eyes, and she had her hair put up into a high pony tail. She seemed fierce; there was no way that this could be the right person. She didn’t seem like she would like anyone let alone actually write anything.
“Who are you?” She questioned, a bit of agitation in her voice.
I was right, there was no way this could be S. Rivera…
“I-I’m here because of the contest.” I stated.
The look she was giving me made me feel like lunch for some reason.
“Sora! You’re contest winner is here!” Yelled the feline, turning and leaving the door open as she walked away.
I stood at the door way, not sure if she had invited me in or just didn’t bother to shut it. It was a few moments later when a cat showed up at the door. His hair was a blue-ish grey and messy, his shirt was messy and wrinkled, and his pants were a bit baggy, but his eyes were the most gorgeous amber color I’ve ever seen…
“Lucky contest winner, huh?” He said as he looked me over.
I nodded quickly. There was an unseen blush underneath my dark fur as I looked up at him. This was him… this was S. Rivera, it had to be. What was his name again? Sora was it? Sora Rivera, it had a nice ring to it I suppose.
“Come on, we can talk in my ‘office’.” He said, using his fingers to quote ‘office’.
I followed the cat inside, shutting the door behind me. The inside of the house was very clean… it was almost scary. It was only when we were in the cat’s so called ‘office’ that he turned around and looked at me.
“You look like you’re about to be eaten.” Sora said with a toothy grin.
“I-um… who was that? She seemed kind of mad.” I stated a bit nervously. Was it really okay to be asking that? I wasn’t sure but it was too late to not ask it.
“Don’t mind her. She’s just in a pissy mood because I won’t fuck her.” He stated boldly.
I shouldn’t really have been all that surprised by his vulgar words after reading so many of his books.
I blinked a bit. “So she’s you’re girlfriend?” Damn I’m nosy, what’s the deal? I mean really, so many personal questions!
The cat shook his head. “Is that what she’s calling herself now? It doesn’t matter anyway. It’s not like I like her or anything.” He stated.
“I frowned a bit. I wasn’t there twenty minutes and I already knew that he was male, possibly taken, and doesn’t seem to be like anything that people thought.
“What’s wrong kid?” He asked, looking at me with one eyebrow raised.
I shook my head a little bit to clear my thoughts. “You’re male…” It was the first thing that came out of my mouth and I felt kind of stupid for saying it. Even so, it made Sora laugh.
“Yes, the last time I checked I was. I’m guessing that you also thought that I was a chick?” He questioned.
I shook my head again. “I didn’t care. I figured that you didn’t want anyone to know in the first place.” I said. “Besides, male or female, you’re still my favorite author.”
Sora grinned. “Is that so? What’s your favorite book?” He asked.
I perked up a little bit. “Fascination.” I stated quickly, proud of my book of choice.
“Really? I didn’t take you as an erotic book fan. I thought you would be more into the Fisk series or something.” He stated.
“Fisk? Of well I used to be, but Fascination is so much better.” I admitted.
“Do you own all of my books?” He questioned.
“No, I can’t afford to buy that many. Plus I would have no place to put them. I normally just check them out from the library.” I replied.
Sora’s ears perked up a bit. “So, what’s your name anyway kid?”
“Oh, it’s Piper”, I said with a smile. “And I’m not a kid.” I added.
The cat looked at me curiously. “What are you like fifteen or something?”
“Nineteen actually.” I corrected.
Sora moved closer to me, looking at me seriously. “ID, hand it over.”
I couldn’t help but giggle a little bit as I pulled out my wallet and showed off my ID. “It’s real too, so I’m not lying.” I stated.
Sora blinked a bit before suddenly placing his hands firmly on my chest. “Well now, you certainly fooled me.”
I blushed brightly beneath my dark fur. “Wha-what are you doing?” I asked nervously.
“Checking if you have boobs.” He stated simply. “You could either be extremely flat chested or you’re really a guy.”
I blushed even more and swatted at his hands a bit, slightly flailing. “I-I’m a guy!” I stated.
“Even so, you’re more beautiful than that slut out there.” Sora said with a smile. Was that supposed to be a compliment?
“You must not like her very much.” I stated with a frown as I put away my wallet, staying a good foot and a half away from the cat.
“She’s bossy, rude, and demanding. I’m surprised that she’s not pregnant yet, seeing as she fucks any guy she can get to sleep with her.” He stated with a distasteful look on his face.
“Why is she here then?” I questioned. Either they had a strange relationship or it was something else…
Sora frowned. “She’s my editor.”
I blinked in surprise and stared at him a bit. “Your editor? Seriously? That’s messed up. Why don’t you just get a new one?”
“She’s sleeping with my publisher.” He spat.
“Wow… she really is a whore.” I stated.
Sora chuckled. “So what were the prizes for the contest?” He asked suddenly.
“Winner got to meet you. Simple as that.” I said simply. “It didn’t really specify.”
The cat nodded. “I see, so it’s free game. No rules, no penalties.”
“What are you getting at?” I questioned, inching back a little bit.
Sora shook his head. “Oh nothing. Just wondering if I should fuck you is all.” He stated.
I blushed. “We only just met… and… and…”
The cat grinned. “And you’re clearly a virgin.” He stated quickly.
“What kind of pervert are you anyway? Saying such things to someone you just met today?” I questioned.
Sora laughed. “I guess you could say that I’m just a tom cat.” He said.
“Or you’re just a pervert.” I murmured.
It seemed like such a short time that Sora and I spent time together. He showed me some old notes from his scraps and he even let me read some unpublished, very detailed, chapters from Fascination and the Fisk series. It wasn’t until the so called ‘slut’ opened the door that we realized what time it was.
“It’s time for dinner. Are you going to cook or do I have to call for take-out again?” She asked in a slightly demanding tone.
“You haven’t gone home yet?” Sora asked a bit annoyed.
“You know I can’t leave you alone with this harlot. Who knows what she could do to you.” She stated.
“She?” I murmured quietly.
“Harlot? Is there a mirror in here somewhere? Oh wait that’s you. Get the fuck out of my house, now.” Sora hissed.
It felt like there was going to be a cat fight.
“How dare you raise your voice to me. I think the skunk’s fumes have gone to your head!” The feline snapped.
My ears went down and I looked over at Sora. I could see the fur standing up on end on his tail; his ears were quite fluffy too.
“That is no way to talk to my guest. Now get out before I fire both you and my publisher you dirty fucking whore.” Sora spat, hissing with every ‘s’ sound.
It seemed as though the feline was going to burst into tears as she ran from the office. It wasn’t until we heard the front door open and slam shut that Sora and I seemed to calm down a bit.
“That could have turned out better.” Sora said with a sigh.
“Do you think that you were a little hard on her?” I asked.
“No, she was way out of line. To disrespect my guest like that. Are you alright?” He asked.
I nodded slightly. “Yeah… it’s not the first time someone’s said something like that.” I admitted.
Sora frowned before shaking his head. “So tell me, are you hungry?” He asked, changing the subject.
“A bit, yeah.” I stated.
The cat grinned a bit. “Great. Cheese pizza it is then.”
I never understood cats. They’re pissed off one second then completely calm the next. To be truthful, I was still a bit upset from the feline’s comment…
Dinner was, how do I put it, odd. The cheese pizza ended up being about four or five different kinds of cheese, homemade crust, and fresh tomato sauce. I have to admit, it was certainly good, and after eating I could almost feel myself falling asleep.
“Hey, you want to stay the night?” Sora asked after he had done the dishes, or rather put them in the dishwasher, and turned it on.
“Stay the night? Well… I guess so.” I said quietly.
“Great, you can share my bed.” He stated cheerfully.
I wasn’t sure if he was serious or not. I wasn’t even sure when I was supposed to go home. Sure, I actually only lived about a hundred miles away from Sora and it wouldn’t be hard for me to get back, but for some reason I didn’t feel like leaving just yet.
With a happy smile, Sora led me to his bedroom. To my surprise, it was a bit messy. Clothes were on the floor and paper balls were scattered in different spots.
“You know, you’re pretty tidy for a writer.” I stated as I walked further into the room.
“You know, you’re pretty beautiful to be a guy.” Sora replied with a grin.
“I’m not going to regret staying the night, am I Sora?” I asked.
“If you’re thinking that I’m going to try anything with you, that’s all up to you. I have nothing against it, but seeing as I just met you today and that you’re a virgin, I don’t think it would be wise.” He explained as he pulled his shirt off and tossed it onto the floor.
“You wouldn’t happen to have anything I should sleeping… would you?” I asked, not wanting to sleep in my jeans.
“Middle drawer.” He said as he undid his pants and pulled them off before he pulled back the blanket on the bed and laid down.
Slowly I went over to the dresser and opened the middle drawer. I didn’t want to feel like I was peeking so I simply picked a random shirt and closed the drawer.
“Feel free to change where you are.” He murmured.
I couldn’t help but blush as I pulled off my shirt and dropped it on the floor. It felt like I was giving some kind of strip show. Quickly I pulled Sora’s shirt on, pulling it down as far as it would go before pulling my pants down and stepping out of them.
The moment I looked over at Sora, he grinned.
“There’s no way you can be a guy.” He stated.
I frowned, blushing slightly. “But I am. Whether you believe me or not that’s your choice.” I stated as I walked over to the other side of the bed and crawled under the blanket.
I didn’t really take notice of the cat moving around behind me until his hand slid over my hip and cupped my crotch. My fur suddenly stood on end.
“What are you doing?” I gasped, looking back at him a bit wide-eyed.
“Yeah, you’re telling the truth. You really are a guy.” He stated as he pulled away.
I turned and sat up, the blanket slipping down and exposing my upper thigh. “What the hell is wrong with you? Was that just an excuse to molest me? Are you that much of a pervert?” I snapped.
“You know, it’s scenes like that, that fuel my actions.” Sora stated as he pushed the blanket a bit further down.
“You’re such a pervert!” I said as I plopped onto my side and pulled the blanket up over my shoulder.
“You’re having too much fun to be mad at me for long.” He said as he turned his back to me.
I couldn’t help but to close my eyes and smile. It wasn’t long after that when I fell asleep. There was something about Sora that was different, something that I liked about him that I’ve never seen with anyone else. Whatever it was, it made me keep that same stupid smile on my face as I fell asleep.
