Nathan- You...you stayed with me the whole time......you could have run off....why...? I thought you would bail as soon as the collar was let off you...
He felt horrible. His insides felt like they were tearing because of the deception, As soon as she got bigger for whatever reason, she would feel safer from the many predators to her and bail out on him.
Nathan- I know...I mean tomorrow...I guess it'll be good bye then...
He sighed and looked away. In so little time he grew attached to that little hyper pet he used to have. She seemed so different and grown up now. It was literally yesterday that they were just bonding and now he was letting her go.
He didn't have to let her go, by all laws he still owned her. The paper work was all signed and she was signed under pet and stamped owned. "Well we'll say good bye tomorrow." she said yawning. and of course he could always get one of the guards to put another collar on her. There were places in the hospital one could keep a pet until the owner or pet didn't need to be there anymore.
He sighed and looked away from her. He couldn't move his body at risk of messing his leg up a bit. He wanted her to stay but he didn't want her to stay against her will anymore. It was as if he raised a child in such a little time. He grew attached to her.
She watched him silently and then looked out the window. She knew tomorrow she would be back to her small self anyways, so she may as well stick around. And the guy really wasn't that bad
She made a mewl of protest as she was moved, but laid in the crack of his legs again on her back, her arms and legs tucked against her and her head fell back so it was hanging in the space between his knees upside down. Too comfy she had no inclination to move or wake from the spot.
Nathan sighed and picked her up gently again. He laid her next to his pillow on the edge and laid his head back down near her. He pulled the covers over both of them.
She rolled a bit and eventually cracked open her eyes. Shifting she crawled down and then wedged herself in on the bed right next to his neck and shoulder. Curling up, she started to purr loudly. She didn' t mind him really, he wasn't mean to her.
"I suppose I could stay." she replied through a yawn. She would need to be fixed with another collar though, it was mandatory for all slaves to have one.
"Sure." she replied then shrugged "Your no so bad, you don't smell funny. besides I go out there, they catch me I'm brought back. There's really no point, and the fact that your giving me a choice to leave. I respect that." she told him.
