Such A Tease....

He brought out an old binder.It was worn and torn,with black spots on it. "Its usually a custom that whoever shall be,and this word is a bad one to use,'mate' should see the history of their partner..Mines is expressed in photos."

Cougra seemed intrigued on seeing Nick's photos as part of the home custom. "Ooh, I'd love to see how cute you were when you were little! But why is it bad to use the word "mate"?"

"I find that word a bit...Primitive.But,that doesn't matter now." Nick says,sitting next to her and opening the book.

The first picture off the bat was when he was about 6.There he was,in front of a cake.Yoshiro next to him,and Jay in the back.His face was blank.

"Ohh, you were adorable!" Cougra squealed in excitement in seeing the young Nick. "So where did this take place?" She recognizes Yoshiro and that other big guy that Anampo messed with recently.

"This was my sixth birthday.It was at home.There,the homes are all carved out from caves." Nick pointed to the next one.It was a class photo with all kinds of half animal kids.Out of all of them,Conza was at least a foot shorter. "This was taken when I was about 11"

"Wow, I guess life for you has changed over the years." Cougra leaned her head against Nick's shoulder as she hugged him. She wanted to view the moments when she is close to the one she cares for.

He nodded. "Yes.Its been an interesting life." Nick blushed when her head layed on his shoulder and hugged him. "I feel this is all about me,and thats a bit rude.Is there anything you'd like to tell me about yourself more?"

Cougar softly scoffed as if Nick was playing dumb. "I don't think it's very rude at all if there was something for me to know. But for me personally, I don't know what I haven't told you about yet."

"Im sorry." Nick apologized. "Im not sure if there's anything you havent said,either.Although,I'd like to ask,why play the part of a cat?"

Cougar paused to think of a good answer before responding, "Well, I guess I have a great fondness of cats. I even have a pet cat at our home. Since felines represent femininity and I often show off my feminine side, I think why not go with it in the ring? It's worked out for me so far."
