MVOL-After The Void

The void... how long has it been? It’s... hard to tell. It feels like a dream now. But I know it was real. My time with Lith was real. I remember him so vividly. Black cat, blue eyes, girlish figure. Oh, and he's a bit of a nerd. I don't know how long we were in there either. My biggest fear is that he is still in there too. I... don't know how I got out. Like in the void, Lith and I were forgetting our pasts in this world, and now, I’m losing my memory of the void. At first it was simple things. But now when I try recall a special moment... I-I can't! But no matter what I can't forget him. His smile, his tears, the feeling of his body of mine! I remember all of it. Every time I see a black cat, I see his face on them and I want to call out too him. But soon after the face goes back to the owners. Also, when I’m alone in my room at night... I can hear it... a small jingle... a jingle of a bell on a collar. I remember... we made a promise... if we ever got separated... we would meet up...


..........


The day was gone and the night was dark. I was on my daily wanderings through the town. Why do I do this? It feels like I'm looking for someone. But who? Why does every black cat I run across make my heart jump?

My eyes were getting tired. I guess... it’s time to go home. I turned around. A black cat with a dark blue hoodie sweater with his hung low was walking in my direction. It did it again. My heart jumped. Why?

We barely gave each other any notice as we passed each other. Well, until...

*BAM* SLAM* *CRASH* our legs got caught on one another. Both of us lurched forward onto the sidewalk. "Ow..." I moaned in pain. I stood myself back up and helped the cat up. He was pretty small. At first I thought he was a girl with his curves and cute face. "Sorry, I think that was my fault. Are you okay? Do you want to barrow my shoulder?"

"N-No its okay..." He hid his eyes from me. Whether it was on purpose or if he was just shy, I don’t know. He turned around and left shyly. His head was still hung low. I turned around and started to head my way as well. One foot in front of the-

*Jingle*

"Huh?" I looked down. A blue collar lied beneath my shoe. A shiny bell was attached to it. I picked it up looking at it curiously. Did it come from that cat? I turned around again and called out to him. "Hey you dropped this!" My words were called out in vain. The cat was gone. I looked around the corner for him, but gone. Dammit.

Sighing I looked at the collar in my hand. There was something etched into the leather. But in the darkness of the light it was impossible to see. I moved over to a street light and held the collar up.

*jingle*

I read the word aloud to myself. "Lith... Lith? Lith!" All at once all of the memories came rushing back. The void, the couch, the book, and... and...

"Lith!" I called out to him clenching the collar tight in my hand. "Lith!" I called out to him again. I started running around the block, hoping for just a glance of him. "Lith! Lith! Where are you!?" He wasn’t here! I can't give up! I have to find him! "Dammit, where should I go?" I remembered something we once said in the void, and darted off. "One direction is as good as any!"

........

I ran for what seemed like hours. Now I was hunched over trying not to cough out a lung. "Haaah... haaaah... Lith... Why can't I found you!?" I agonized in my shame for a while. Finally deciding to give up and go home. All along the way I cursed at myself and barely took my eyes from the collar.

.........

I rested my head on my pillow. Looking up at my white ceiling I am reminded of the Void once again. "How could I forget?...."

*BOOM!*

The thunder was picking up. So was the rain. I was exausted, depressed, and pissed. And soon my eyes began to close on their own.

"Lith, I will find you." This was my promise.

........

*Knock* it was soft, a barely noticed it. It sounded hesitant. Then *Knock* *Knock* *knock* My head jolted up. I looked at the clock. 2:56 AM. Who could be at my door in this time of night? Or... morning... I looked out my window. Between the heavy rain and the dark skies I could not see a thing. I made my way out of bed and to my front door. "Who is it?" I called out. No answer. After a while I gave up and turned around. But...

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock* I sighed and put my hand on the doorknob and sleepily opened the door.

Before I could ask what they wanted, a pair of wet soggy arms flew around me. Followed by a soggy body and head. For a while we stood there, the stranger hugging me tightly. On closer inspection I saw he was wearing a soaked blue hoody. He... was a black cat with a girly figure and a nice bottom. He looked up at me with the cutest look. It was hard to tell with is soaked fur, but his eyes were filled with tears. Tears of joy. "Yo..." He said his voice cracking.

"Um... h-hi?" Was all I could muster. And I realized, this was the reverse of what happened the first time we met in the void. It looked like he realized it too because he started giggling. After a long moment of just holding each other we let go and I closed the door. Took him to my room. And I stripped him of his wet couths. I won’t lie I took a moment to admire his cute body. "Hehe, as cute as ever." His cheeks flushed a bit. I chuckled and pulled him out a t-shirt for him to wear to bed.

He put it over his head. It was too big for him and covered his crotch completely. "Y-You're wet too Nights." He was right. His soggy hug drenched my entire front. I striped out of my clothes as well. "You're still... big as ever..." I looked at him with a cocky smile. His cheeks flushed redder than a strawberry. I giggled and found some replacement boxers and shirt.

.......

"I love you" He said to me his head resting on my chest, Looking up at me with his cute blue eyes.

"And I love you Lith." We gave each other a small kiss on the lips and slowly fell asleep in a loving embrace.

In the Void I found him, here he found me. And just like then we have each other. I had a sudden urge to move us to my couch, but I was too tired to act on it. Besides, for now, we have this.

.... I still don't remember how we got out of the void....
