Aya AU: meeting Cat

[sliceitwithwind]

Dilan is hanging out near the station, waiting for Aya to get off work. Every now and then his hair makes a semi-disgruntled mrrp? noise. The reason for that is the small black cat who is not in the cat carrier at his feet.

"Mmmhmmm" she nodded, still rather focused on poking Cat without getting her fingers caught by kitty paws. "Very. My sister and I both. The pet store over reacted and sent us out in an ambulance...we weren't dying, but hey, couldn't blame them. Meant we didn't get kittens for our birthday."

"That's too bad." Dilan says, and he means it, "You'd be a great cat owner."

[mitochondriaaya]

"Mmmm, no time now." she admitted sadly. "I don't like the idea of leaving a pet, any pet, alone as often as I have to be out." she actually had thought that through, a while back.

"Besides, I'd get terminally distracted by a kitty." she grinned, sliding from her seat and into Dilan;s lap to chase Cat through the dreads.

"You may borrow my Cat, then, when you need a kitty fix." says the man providing the toy. "She wouldn't mind at all." his arms wrap around her waist and he kisses her neck.

[mitochondriaaya]

"I promise to spoil her horribly" Aya laughed. She could handle being the occasional figure in a kitty's life. It led to less guilt!

Well. That was distracting. Cat was the defacto winner of whatever round of the game they were in because Aya's hands were falling just a little short, in fact, she seemed content to just curl her hands in Dilan's dreads and grin.

After a little while he admits, "You need to get going, hon. I'll meet you at the pool later?"

[mitochondriaaya]

"...damn" she sighed. It's been very cozy. Well, in the 'tuning out the world and melting' kind of way. What? She had a sensitive neck. "Hmmm? Yep. Pool."

Now she just had to disengage from Dilan and Cat. A careful, slow process.

Punctuated by lots of kisses. Yes. Dilan keeps nuzzling her while she pulls away. What?

Eventually, though, he's got Cat back on his shoulder, and watches her walk off.

Until later.
