((Thread summary: OOG slash! The now-grown Leathik has a secret, a secret concerning Skimble. He invites the Railway Cat to his den, wondering if he’ll be able to tell Skimble what he needs to know.))
*****
Leathik hadn’t told Skimble why he’d asked the Railway Cat to come to his den. When Skimble was inside the door, Leathik closed it, smiling as he padded over to him. “Hello, Skimble.”
“Hello, Leathik,” said Skimble, glancing around the den. “How are you?”
“I”m good, yourself?” Leathik asked as his tail twitched a little.
“Fine,” said Skimble, sitting down next to the now fully-grown cat. “A little lonely, but I can manage.”
“You always have,” Leathik agreed with a nod. And before Skimbleshanks could do anything else, Leathik had leaned forward and pressed his lips to the Railway Cat’s. The kiss was quick, and very sudden ... and Leathik blushed. Pulling away just as quickly as it had begun, he held a face of slight shame. “S...Sorry Skimble ... I’ve wanted to do that for a long while.”
Skimble’s mind was frozen, as he reeled from the kiss. Well. That had certainly been ... unexpected. And ... not altogether unpleasant.
Leathik looked up at Skimble again, blushing a little, before asking, “Did ... did you mind ... the kiss...?”
Skimble blinked and turned to face Leathik, noting the younger cat’s blush. The Railway Cat’s mind tried to come up with a reply, but he was drawing a blank. “Probably ... not as much as ... I should have,” he said finally.
"Oh," Leathik whispered, but screwed up the courage to ask, "Can... I kiss you again... please?"
Skimble stared for a moment, before taking the initiative himself this time, and he leaned forward. His lips brushed Leathik's gently, and he wrapped an arm around the younger cat, pulling him close.
Needles to say, this was not what Leathik expected. The orange cat drew him closer in the kiss, having an arm wrapped around him while they gently kissed. A very tiny mewl came from Leathik’s lips. Both of his arms wrapped around Skimble's shoulders and he closed his eyes.
The two of them remained in the embrace for a moment before the implications of what was happening finally caught up with Skimble. Though every part of him was screaming not to, he pulled back a little, separating his lips from Leathik's.
"I'm sorry," he said. "I'm not supposed to do this."
Leathik lowered his ears. His lips quivered as he looked to the ground. "I... I know... but I've wanted to do that for a long while..."
Skimble placed a friendly paw on Leathik's shoulder. "It's not something you should be ashamed of," he murmured gently. "But it is something I can't do. Not right now."
"Wh... Why not?" Leathik asked as he looked back up into Skimble's eyes. His coal-black gaze held great shame and sadness as he asked this... and already a tear had started to form.
Skimble paused. He certainly didn't want to hurt Leathik, but he didn't want to string him along, either. "Because ... because I already have a ... a mate."
Leathik's ears stayed drooped and he looked to the ground again. "I... I knew that, Skimble... but I still do love you."
"I know," Skimble said gently, cupping a paw under Leathik's chin. "The feeling is mutual, I assure you. But ..." he hesitated, "I don't want to be forced to have to choose between you and Jenny. I don't want either of you getting hurt just because of me." He dropped his eyes, not looking at the younger cat. "I'm sorry. I hope you can understand."
Leathik paused. “I... I know, I feel like I don't want to get inbetween you two either," he whispered as he looked to the ground still. His nose twitched very gently, "but... I thought I'd let you know that I love you." Leathik stayed seated though, his chin rested on Skimble's paw, his tail lightly curled up.
Skimble smiled slightly as his arm closed around Leathik again. "I appreciate it." He kissed the top of the younger cat's head as his tail wrapped around Leathik's. Leathik blushed, while his tail wrapped with Skimble's in a gently loving manner and his head rested on the Railway cat's shoulder. He stayed close like this for a moment before kissing the cat's neck... very softly.
Skimble's fur tingled where Leathik had kissed him. He petted the younger cat's head, ruffling the fur. 'He is sweet,' the Railway Cat mused.
Leathik smiled. Skimble's neck got another kiss before he nuzzled down into it.
"Goodnight, Leathik," said Skimble softly, still stroking the younger cat.
"G...Goodnight, Skimble," he whispered... but true to the cat's words, Leathik fell asleep. The younger cat snoozed against the other, his eyes closed, and a little smile on his face.
"I love you," the Railway Cat whispered, very softly, before he too fell into the darkness of slumber.
