Rory only paid half attention to the things Bob was saying. Her thoughts, despite her best efforts, kept drifting back to sandy blond and icy blue eyes. Biting down on her lip was the only thing that kept her from crying again. Once her cat left the bed and her hand fell against the blankets did she give him her full attention.

"I guess." She didn't sound very convinced, but the maine coon had a point. Once, volunteering and doing the greater good had consumed all her time. When had she lost sight of that and become so obsessed with boys?

Slowly she scooted off the bed and looked for her boots, pulling them on one at a time. Crossing the room, she picked Bob up with some effort. He was nearly half her size, his fur easily hiding a good chunk of her frame. From there, she carried the fat cat out of her apartment until she could find a safe space to power up and teleport into Negaspace.
