My Kitty Chapter 16
#1 of My Kitty 16-
I woke up and tears were running down my face. I was curled up in a ball, whimpering slightly. "Mike, are you awake?" A low voice came from behind me. I nodded my head slightly, but that was all I could manage. "Will you sit up so we can talk?" I didn't move at all. "Come on." I felt a paw on my arm. "Get up." The paw shook me lightly, but I didn't move. The paw pulled me upright and I saw Zack's sweet face. "Want something to eat, pup?" "No." I fell onto my back on the bed, but he pulled me back up again. "You have to eat something." "No." Zack put his paws on my shoulders. "I won't force you to eat, but it will make you feel alot better." He walked out of the room and I fell on my back again. I heard mumbling, but shortly after heard nothing but silence. "Mike, we just got a call from the hospital." I sat up quickly and looked at the door. Maxx had just walked in with a smile. "They said Trevor is awake now." I got a huge smile and stood up. "Really?" "Yeah, but you have to eat before we go visit." I nodded and hugged him. He picked me up and brought me into the kitchen. "What do you want, pup?" Zack was at the fridge, looking through it. "Anything." I was still latched onto Maxx. He managed to get me off of him and set me in a chair. Zack placed a plate of eggs, bacon and toast in front of me. I ate it as fast as I could and jumped out of the seat. "Can we see my kitten now!?" They looked at eachother. "Maybe you should wait a bi-" "No, I want to see Trevor now!" "Ok..." Maxx and Zack each took one of my paws and led me outside. They put me in the back of Zack's truck alone and drove me to the hospital.
I could hardly wait to get there, the excitement was flipping in my stomach. The truck came to a stop and Zack and Maxx pulled me to my feet. We walked inside and Maxx told me to take a seat while they talked. I waited for a few seconds, almost jumping up and down in my seat. "Alright, come on." Zack held out his paw and I took it. He seemed nervous. We went past the rooms until we finally to Trevor's room. We stopped at the door and Maxx stopped right behind me. I felt some drips of water on my head and shoulder. I looked up and saw Maxx was crying. I thought he was overcome with happiness to see his brother, so I pushed the door open. I rushed in, letting go of Zack's paw. "Trevor?" He was in his bed, asleep. I looked back at Zack and Maxx and they were standing at the door crying. "Why is he still sleeping?" I felt my eyes fill with tears. "I'm sorry, Mike. I was getting worried about you and... it just got out of hand." I felt the tears run down my face and I felt an uncontrollable feeling of anger. I clenched my fists and looked at the floor. I grabbed a chair and pulled it beside Trevor. I was trying to hold my anger back, I feared I might lash out at Maxx or Zack. I took Trevor's paw and just sat. I didn't say a word to anybody, I just sat in one place. "Mike, are you mad at us?" I didn't answer Maxx's question, I just stared blankly at Trevor, hoping any moment he would wake up. I layed my head down beside Trevor's and closed my eyes. I fell asleep and hoped I wouldn't wake up till he did.
"Mike." I heard a voice whisper my name, and I knew who it was. It was Trevor's, he sounded close to me. "Mike." Once again, the voice whispered, but this time it was farther away. I couldn't open my eyes, I could only listen. "Mike." The voice was getting farther and farther away, changing each time until it sounded nothing like the tiger I knew. I felt he was gone now, that I would never get to hold him in my arms or feel his gentle embrace. Never hear his kind voice or kiss his soft lips.
I sat up and yawned, it had felt like only hours after I had fallen asleep, I was still tired. I looked over and saw Trev still sleeping. His peaceful face had a blank expression. I still had his paw in mine, and I wasn't about to let go. "Mike?" I saw Maxx sitting at the opposite end of the room. "Mike, you've been asleep for 5 days." I was hoping that I would wake up when Trevor did, but it was just a lost hope. "We need to go, you have school." "Why didn't you wake me?" "We couldn't wake you. We tried everything, even tried to move you somewhere else, but you had a tight hold on Trevor's paw." I looked at the sleeping beast's paw. It was a bit smaller than before. He didn't look as muscled or as big, but he was still bigger than I was. "Do I really have to go?" "Yes, It's your first day." I felt completely depressed. "After all, Trevor went to school even when you were sleeping." A single tear fell from my eye and I kissed his nose. "Sorry kitten." I slowly walked away, slipping my paw away from Trevor's, but something stopped me. "Come on, we don't have to much time." I looked back and Trev was holding strongly onto my hand. "Let go." I shook my hand but his grip kept getting tighter. "Sorry nothin, you're staying with me." Trevor was finally coming out of his deep sleep. He shifted a little bit and his eyes opened slightly. I saw a small shine in his eyes, and he smiled weakly.
