Take A Chance On Me
Chapter 15: Explanations and Expectations
Jake sat in the dark living room watching some news, it was the only thing he felt like watching after making his call to Ian and finding out Chance was at Kim's bar downtown. He would have thought Chance to usually go to his mothers or friends house to unwind and relax, but then again he is friends with the owners of the bar and it did come with its own advantages. The chocolate shaded kat leaned back on the couch with a blanket covering his legs and feet, the fuzz from the blanket ran in between his toes and space between his legs providing heat and soft comfort. Jake had a glass of wine on the coffee table in front of the couch, he was still allowed to drink as long as it didn't have a high percentage, so the frequent red wine was good here and there. Jake was thinking back on what happened earlier in Chance's room when he made his love angry to yell and break the lamp, he had spent about a half hour cleaning up the mess, with his stomach plump and round as it was bending over to scoop the shards of glass into the dustpan made it more tricky than expected. After cleaning the mess Jake went downstairs to dispose of the shards and back to the living room where he made his numerous calls to see where his love had gone to. Picking up the bottled neck glass Jake brought it to his lips and let the velvet colored liquid into his mouth and slide down his throat, he was accustomed to the taste of wine being from a wealthy family and having the stuff at special events, so the slight bitter after taste didn't bother him at all. He placed the half glass of wine back on the coffee table before nuzzling his body back on the couch looking at the clock in the living room, it was almost midnight and still Chance's hadn't called, or Ian. before you There was a knocking at the front door, without hesitation the tom lept off from the couch and hurried towards the door to open it, Kyle stood there in the blowing wind holding something in his hands, his mouth was covered up by his scarf as the trail ends blew along with his clothing.
"Kyle?!?! Come in quickly before you turn into a Katsickle" Jake said leading the younger kat inside the house and shutting the door when he was fully in. The snow piled up high on the ground, more than before when they had returned from the mall earlier that day.
"Sorry for stopping by so late, but I wanted to talk with you about something Jake" Kyle said slowly taking off his scarf with his free hand, he and Jake had become real close friends since the cookout. Kyle moved in with Jake's family and they helped him on his feet to support himself and not rely on Cliff anymore, he was able to help out Mr. Clawson with his business and make money on his own during the summer time. Now he was enrolled in the community college in the city studying Criminal Justice with kats his age and older, but he still keeps in close contact with Jake whenever he needs someone to talk to. Kyle placed his scarf on the metal hanger as he walked to the living room with Jake, holding a box in his right hand as they both took a seat on the couch, Jake took out a spare glass and poured his friend some wine. "Thanks, I wont be long I'm afraid, gotta finish some papers before the holiday. But I wanted to stop by and give you and Chance an early Christmas present" Kyle said extending his hand and giving the box to Jake, he took the small container after placing his glass on the counter.
"You really didn't have to Kyle, your presence is enough of a gift to know your alive and healthy"
"But its because of your help and generosity of your family that I'm here today. I just though this small token of my gratitude would help" Jake slowly opened the white box and gazed upon the glass ornament inside. It was the Cross of Christ with a fine cut diamond in the center and on the ends of the cross. "I know how much of a holy person Chance is, so I thought this might brighten up your Christmas tree when you guys put it up" Kyle took a sip from his glass, wincing a bit at the after taste of the fine mixture of alcohol and fruit. "I could never get use to that" He smiled. Jake continued to marvel at the design of the ornament before placing it back in the box and giving his friend a big hug.
"I'm sure Chance will love it when he sees it" Both kats raised their glassed and toasted to the season before finishing their drinks, Kyle stood up and started to head out the door, Jake followed close behind. "I'll give you and the parents a call on Christmas" Jake smiled as Kyle opened the door after waving his friend goodbye, then retreating into the blistering cold wind once again and making his way across the frozen land of snow in the junkyard to his car. Jake stood in the doorway watching as his friend left out into the foggy winter night, disappearing in an instant as the snow and wind devoured his vehicle at the front entrance. Jake stood there crossing his arms for warms looking into the distance, hoping his love would pop out of no where and return home, shaking his head slowly and closing his eyes Jake went back inside and shut the door. He looked down on his hand noticing he was still holding onto the ornament Kyle bought them, smiling to himself he went to the living room and turned off the television before heading upstairs for bed. " Please, just come home" The door to his room closed slowly as the lights turned off, leaving the house as dark as space with no sun, the whistling of the winds blew outside harsh and more violent than before when the snow subsided.
~ 2 am In The Morning ~
Ian's car finally pulled up to the garage, the snow had stopped along with the blowing wind, only silence and the darkened gray skies gave them company that morning. It was going to snow for the next couple of days thanks to the weather report on the news, Ian got out of the car and made his way over to the passenger side door opening it. Chance was passed out in the seat, drooling a bit from the side of his mouth but that was to be expected with the amount of alcohol he drank last night, Ian occasionally took his bottle of water and pour some of it down his mouth massaging his throat so he would swallow it. Chance did without any fuss, he would frequently moan and shift in his seat on the ride home, probably feeling the effects of all the liquids he drank at the bat already. Ian unbuckled his brother from the vehicle and scooped his brother into his arms, Jake wasn't lying when he said Chance hasn't been eating much, the muscular tom was light as a feather to him. Chance started to struggle in his brothers grip and eventually planted his own feet into the freezing ground as he pushed his brother off from him, Ian scooted back a bit surprised he was still conscious. Chance just stumbled aimlessly in the snow walking the opposite way of the door to the house, Ian caught up with his brother and tried to grab his arm, only to get pushed by his brother hard.
"Go away......leave me alone!" Chance stuttered, the cold air stung his lungs sharp causing the drunken tom to breath heavily as the bottom of his pants got soaked from the snow along with his feet. Shivering as he walked into the darkness of the junkyard, getting lost from the view of the light coming from the porch of the house. Ian quickly rushed to his brother and held onto his forearms from behind, Chance struggled to get lose and lost his balance, Ian had no trouble holding his weak brother so he couldn't fall. "Get off of me Ian, let me go!!!!" Chance yelled as his feet continued to slip on the white snow below, his breathing became erratic as he flexed his muscles to loosen his brothers grip, but still Ian overpowered the drunken tom with ease. Chance began to thrash about violently trying to get free.
"Chance, get a grip of yourself. You're not well an...." Before Ian could finish his foot was smashed into the ground by Chance's foot, when the drunken tom turned around he swung his fist at his taller brother, missing as he fell to the ground face first. Ian just let the pain slowly go away as he clenched his teeth together, he saw his brother on the ground trying hard to get up, only to slip on his side or fall again and again. Ian just shook his head slowly, (if only you could see yourself now brother......you would be heartbroken). Finally the cream colored tom stopped trying to get up as he shivered from his wet clothing and the cold winter air, Ian finally knelt down by Chance's side and scooped his younger sibling into his arms once again. He saw Chance's face, his cheeks were flushed red as his fur stuck together from the water and tears from his eyes, Ian knew he needed to be inside and warm. The cold snow burned Ian's feet as he made his way to the house, the door was unlocked so he used his shoulder to pry it open and enter. Chance's flimsy body swayed in Ian's arms as the eldest kat walked inside, closing the door behind him with his foot.
"Jake?" Ian called walking towards the living room, he saw the couch was empty and moved in front of it to slowly lay his brother down across the cushions, Chance wiggled his body a little bit to adjust. The light came on from upstairs as the door opened up with Jake looking down from the steps at Ian, he could make out a yellow tail hanging off the end of the couch and slowly moving on the floor, he knew without a doubt Chance was back safely thanks to his brother. Making is way downstairs Jake placed his hands on the couch adn looked down at his mate who was so pale from the snow and lack of nutrition, his left arm crossed over his torso as his other arm stretched out the length of his body on his side. "He had been pounding away at the bar, sorry I didn't get there earlier"
"Dont trouble over it, you got there and its a mericle you got him home safe and sound. Thank you Ian...." Jake was cut off when they heard a gurgling sound coming from Chance, with a sudden jolt of life the drunken kat turned to his side and vomited on the ground, taking in deep breaths in between each purge of his stomach contents. Ian went into the kitchen to grab some paper towels as Jake went the the end of the couch where Chance laid his head, he patted his lover on the head as Chance continued to purge. Chance lay there for a while slowly trying to bring his body upright in a sitting position, he was able to sit up having his head lowered on the ground still and his hands holding onto the couch cushions. His arms were shaking with the rest of his body terribly, Jake sat next to his mate and hugged him trying to keep him still. "Chance.......its Jake, your home love. You're going to be alright" Jake nuzzled his head against Chance's shoulder, the drunken kat slowly raised his head to meet the pair of amber eyes staring at him, no words could be spoken by him. He only cosed his eyes and leaned his own head against Jake's, grunting in between purrs he emminated from his chest. Ian came back into the living room and saw the two together, he placed the paper towels on the coffee table next to the bottle of wine before going over to his brother and kneeling down placing his hand on Chance's shoulder.
"Hey there Chance" Ian shook his brother lightly, but he didn't look at him or respond, but continued to purr. "We're going to get you up to your room now bro, it wont take long" Chance only nodded as Jake stood up slowly, holding onto his stomach as he stood sucking in air, it was beginning to become quite a chore to do. Ian once again placed his arms underneath Chance's legs and behind his back, lifting the tom into his arms once again and heading up the stairs to his room. The muscular tom hissed some air out of his mouth while being lifted, probably some gas from his stomach that hadn't passed yet, they made it to Chance's room and entered. Ian placed his brother down on the soft mattress and covered him up with his sheets. "I'll call tomorrow to see how he's doing" Ian said patting Jake on the back and leaving them both inside the room, Jake could hear the front door close as the house became dark once again when Ian turned off the lights on his way out. Jake just looked down at his mate seeing him sweat heavily onto his fur and pillow, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small towel and began to dab Chance's forehead. Slowly, the yellow colored tom opened his eyes to make out his love in a blurred vision touching his face with a damp cloth.
"........" Silence was all that captured the muscular kat, he was feeling sick and exhausted than ever before in his life.
"Chance.....?" Jake stopped dabbing Chance's forehead and brushed some of his hair away from his eyes, Chance just looked into Jake's amber eyes with his own dilated and foggy blue eyes. "Can you hear me Chance?"
"..............."
"My poor Chance" Jake brought up the sheets of the bed up to Chance's chest, he was still shivering from head to toe. The combined mixture of the alcohol in his system and the freezing weather caught up to him quickly, his hands held onto the sheet as his lips started to quiver. Jake rubbed the side of his arms fast to create heat friction, it started to work after a while when Chance started to calm down more. His eyes started to water up, Jake looked at his mate and cupped his face with his left hand. "Whats the matter love??"
"I.....I shouldn't have pppushseded y.y.yo.oy.o.y.ou,,,,," Chance closed his eyes letting the tears flow down his, breathing through his mouth now because his nose was getting clogged up with mucus. He lifted his hand and placed it on Jake's orb of a belly, his meaty fingers ran through Jake's fur feeling the heat it produced. Jake leaned his head down and kissed Chance on the forehead, using his free hand to brush away the water from Chance's eyes. The burly kat sniffed the air holding back his mucus before closing his eyes, sleep was the only thing he needed right now and Jake was going to make sure he got plenty of it. Chance's hand slipped off of Jake's stomach and landed onto the mattress with a small bounce from the force, Jake slowly got up from his spot and tucked his mate in with a heavier blanket he found on the ground. Quietly he tip-toed out of the room and closed the door retreating to his own room.
~ Early That Morning ~
Jake awoke around 10am to clean the house up a bit, he doubt they would get any cars today since the roads were slippery and most of the citizens knew to be safe on the streets with their cars. The snow plows went by the garage around 7am in the morning, they always stopped at the junkyard last since it was on the outskirts of the city and since it wasn't populated by anyone except the two vigilanties. Walking into the kitchen and putting an empty glass into the sink to be washed later, he made Chance his breakfast already when he woke up, it was sitting in the microwave ready to be reheated when the sleeping giant would come to life. From upstairs in Chance's room, the sleeping tom stirred awake kicking the blanket and sheets off from his body, he was baking underneath them like a turkey, sweating on his bed sheets and clothing. He slowly crawled to the edge of his bed and placed his feet on the floor, putting both of his hands on his face trying to make the room stop spinning around him. He hasn't been this hung over since he took his first shot of Whiskey at the end of his senior year in high school, those graduation parties lasted the whole month of June with Senior Week and parties with his peers. Chance's stomach wasn't feeling up to any normal standards as well, sharp pains pierced his insides and the amount of gas he was releasing could have killed a cow. He looked through the cracks of his fingers to view his surroundings, he was in his room alright, the faint odor he produced of himself flew inside of his nose and reminded him of his living area with a slight churn in his stomach. The door opened as Jake wased towards his lover with a smile on his face holding a cup of hot steaming coffee in his hand, the aroma sickened Chance as he covered his nose quickly and stood up towering his mate.
"Well, at least your motor skills are back" the chocolate kat smiled as he gave Chance a hug, holding his coffee away from their bodies.
"Man......I feel so wasted. Must have drank too many than I expected" Chance sighed as he scratched his head, he knew why he drank so much but didn't feel happy about it one bit. He looked down at Jake who still held onto him, his tail brushing from side to side on the ground as he dug his head as far into Chance's chest as possible.Chance smiled as he placed a hand on Jake's shoulder patting his mate, Jake let go and held onto Chance's hand leading him downstairs into the kitchen, there Chance took a seat and started to rub his forehead. Jake went over to the microwave and pressed the timer to head up Chance's food. "Jake.....we should talk"
"About what Chance?"
"You know what, my behavior last night when I yelled at you and.....and...." Chance looked at his mate leaning against the wooden island in the kitchen. Jake didn't make eye contact with Chance, just looked at the floor and listened. "I shouldn't have, you know....pushed you that way. Especially not when you were trying to help me and stop me from being stupid. I'm sorry about the things I said to you love, it was rude and I was just upset and tired......thats all. You know I love you and....."
"Stop" Jake said lifting his head and looking into Chance's eyes. "Whats done is done, nothing can change what happened already. Just leave it be o.k?"
"I cant Jake, you know I was being moody and disrespectful to you. You don't deserve that from anyone"
"Chance, its not like I've been "Mr. Perfect" with his baby on the way. You've been answering my calls day and night for the littlest things, like ice-cream at 2am, or a back rub here and there. Then the time you went out of your way to make me the dinner I wanted, all of it from scratch. I know I must have gotten on your nerves here and there and forgot your needs as well, you've been busy in the garage and with being a SWAT Kat without me to back you up anymore. This baby is going to be out of me soon and we'll take on more troubles than we bargained for, but we'll do them together." Jake removed the hot food from the microwave and placed it in front of Chance, the burly kat looked at the food and questioned his abilities to eat it all with his upset stomach. Jake planted a kiss on his head before going to the fridge and grabbing a can of milk for the two of them and sat down across from his love.
"No matter what, we'll get through all of this together" Chance said raising his can in the air meeting Jake's can, they both drank feeling the delicious milk go down their throats and flavoring their tongues. The sound of aluminum echoed in the air as Jake dropped his can and coughed up some milk, the sudden action caused Chance to choke on his drink a bit before he could clear his wind pipe. "Whats the matter Jake??" Chance got up from his seat and moved behind his mate patting him on the back softly to help him out, Jake just hissed through his teeth and held onto his stomach, he could feel liquid running down his legs. Chance felt it too on his feet as he looked on the floor to see a puddle of water forming.
"Chance..." Jake panted in between his hisses. "Hate to spoil the moment but we got unexpected company coming" Chance cocked an eyebrow.
"What are you talking about???" Jake narrowed his eyes as he looked up at Chance, using his hand he pointed to his stomach many times. "........so that would mean.......OH YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!" Finally figuring out what his lover as trying to explain, Chance held onto Jakes shoulders hiding behind his body and looking at his stomach as it vibrated in Jakes hands. Jake yelped a bit in pain as he wiggled in his seat. "Just stay calm, I'll call my momma" Chance said jumping over the pool of water on the floor and reaching for the phone, he dialed the number and waited for someone to answer.
~ Rita's House ~
Rita came from the kitchen after taking her over mitts off of her hands, she finished making a batch of treats for the Sunday school kats when she heard the phone in the living room go off. She reached for the handle and brought it to her ear.
"Good Morning, this is Rita" With that she quickly moved the phone handle away from her ear after hearing frantic yelling and what sounded like pots and pans being tossed around. There was so much commotion in the background she could hardly make out Chance's voice. "Honey you need to calm down and quiet things so I can hear, I can hardly hear you now,o.k? Now you're going to have to speak slower and take a deep breath. Yes. Alright. Understandable, yes that does usually happen.......you don't say...............WHAT!?!?!??!"
