“Talking”

‘Thoughts’

Author’s Note: This is a sequel to my popular story “Different Point of View”. Hope you enjoy this continuation of Chance and Feral’s relationship. Ulyferal is my beta on this story as well.

The drive to Megakat Springs was a bit nerve wracking for Ursula. She was still fearful about meeting Chance’s family. They had wakened early that Saturday morning so that they could get there at a reasonable time. As Chance was putting their suitcases in the truck of the rental car, Ursula gave James some last minute instructions. Very soon they were on their way. The day was clear and beautiful but it didn’t help relieve her uneasiness about this trip. She was also a bit suspicions about Chance’s reasons for her to see his family so suddenly.

“Chance?” She said questioningly.

“Yes, kitten?”

“Why the sudden need for me to meet your family? Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy to meet them though still a bit nervous about it, but why now?” She asked.

“The timing was good, with this reunion and all, to meet the family. I thought it would be a great opportunity for you to be able to get to know them which will help you to know me better. What’s wrong with that?” He asked a bit nervous she was asking. He didn’t want to give away his other reason for having her go.

Ursula nodded. “Nothing. It makes sense and I can understand why you want me to go. I’m just edgy is all.” She sighed and stared out the window.

“Aw, don’t be love, you just need to relax. Don’t worry so much about it.” Chance said gently, reaching out to stroke her cheek to reassure her.

He gave her a warm smile when she turned to smile shyly back at him. He took her paw in his, giving a gentle squeeze before letting go. A couple of hours later, they reached the motel where the reunion was being held. Chance checked them in while Ursula waited in the car. He came out with the keycard to their room and drove them to the section his family had reserved. Once at their room door they got out and Chance popped the trunk to get their suitcases. They each grabbed their own and made their way to the door. He swiped the keycard and opened the door.

Putting her case down, Ursula looked around. The room had a king size bed and a long dresser against the wall in front of it with a TV on top. Smiling at Chance, Ursula started to unpack her suitcase when there was a knock on the door. She looked puzzled but Chance guessed it was one of his family. They had probably spotted him arriving.

He opened the door and standing there was a kat, taller than Chance with the same fur color but no stripes. He was grinning at him and wasted no time reaching forward and giving the tabby a hug.

“Hey, bro. Long time no see?” The unknown tom said warmly.

“Hey, Mike. Yeah, it’s been a while. How are things?” Chance asked hugging back then releasing his brother to let him come in.

Mike stepped inside, his eyes immediately falling on the gorgeous she-kat staying with his brother. His smile broadened as he held out a paw to shake hers.

“Well hello! I’m Mike Furlong, Chance’s older brother.” He said eyeing her appreciatively.

“Ursula Feral,” she said a bit nervously, taking his paw.

“A Feral? So, are you related to the recently passed Commander Feral?” Mike asked curiously, unknowingly causing her a moment of pain. Chance caught the flash of pain in her eyes and felt sorry for her. He moved close putting an arm around her waist in comfort.

“Yes, he was my cousin as well as Felina Feral.” Ursula said softly.

Mike nodded then turned to his brother. “I thought you hated the Feral’s, Chance?” He asked a puzzled look on his face.

“I don’t hate the Ferals, Mike. I just didn’t like what the Commander did to me but I had nothing against the rest of them. Ursula’s nothing like him,” Chance explained, squeezing Ursula a bit to show he meant what he’d said.

“Well that’s great then, looks like you caught the beauty of the bunch,” Mike smirked. “Anyway, You asked how I’m doing and the answer is very well, thank you.”

“I certainly did and that’s great to know things are good for you. Say, where’s Jenny?” Chance asked.

“Back in our room resting from the trip. Carrying a kitten is a big job, Ya know.” Mike said smiling happily.

“Jenny’s your mate?” Ursula asked.

“Yes, been mated for two years now and we’re expecting our first kitten very soon.” Mike said proudly.

“Oh, that’s wonderful. It will be nice to meet her.” Ursula said politely then turned to her boyfriend and asked, “Uh, Chance just how many siblings do you have?”

“Three brothers and one sister. Mike and Chloe are the oldest, I’m the middle kitten, Peter and Matt are the youngest.” Chance told her then added, “Peter is mated to Sarah and Chloe is mated to Mitchell.”

“With Matt and Chance being the only ones left unmated. You know bro, mom’s going to ask when you’re going to settle down and start a family. She’s really wanting some grand kittens.” Mike said warning him his mom was going to bug him about it.

Chance sighed, “Doesn’t she always! Anyway, Mike, Ursula and I need to unpack and take a nap before meeting everyone at the park. We’ll see you then, okay?” He covered a yawn as he escorted his brother to the door.

“Sure no problem! Later bro...Ursula.” Mike said easily, waving good bye and going out the door Chance was holding open.

“He’s seems a really nice guy!” Ursula said as she returned to unpacking her suitcase.

“Yeah, he’s cool!” Chance said with a smile as he also unpacked his suitcase.

Chance grabbed the cases and shoved them in the closet then went and laid down on the bed after toeing his shoes off. Ursula smiled at him as she did the same, laying down with her back against him. He sighed contentedly as he placed an arm around her waist and nuzzled her neck. They lay quietly for a few minutes. Ursula wasn’t really that tired and wanted to know more about Chance and his family.

“So you’re the middle kitten, huh? That explains a lot.” She said provocatively.

“Oh yeah? And what about you?” Chance asked not rising to the bait.

“Me? I was first born.”

“That explains a lot.”

Ursula playfully slapped Chance’s shoulder. He chuckled then snuggled his nose in her neck fur. Ursula sighed, obviously he wasn’t going to give over any information so she lay listening as his breathing became slow and deep before letting herself join him.

Chance woke around one, Ursula was still asleep. He stared down at her with loving eyes. It still boggled him that he’d fallen head over heels for his former enemy and she for him. Fate had to change Feral’s gender to make her his mate. Fate was really strange.

He checked the time and felt a quickie in the shower together was in order then the park but first he needed to wake her up. He leaned down and nuzzled her neck while he let one of his paws stray down her body to the warm nest between her legs. He began stroking her through her jeans.

Ursula moaned drowsily, she was having a really good dream that was getting very intense. Only minutes later she gasped and climaxed, her eyes flying open to discover not all of it had been a dream. Grinning wickedly into her surprised face, Chance captured her mouth in a hot kiss.

She groaned and rolled her body to face his, her paws rubbing his back. They came up for air a moment later.

“We need to take a shower and get ready to go to the park, kitten,” he murmured huskily.

“Is it that late already?” She sighed in surprise pulling away from him to get up.

“We still have plenty of time but I wanted to spend a little personal time with you and since we have to take a shower...” his eyebrows went up suggestively.

She blushed. “Why waste water, huh?” She smirked, as she pulled her clothes off.

Snickering, Chance got undressed as well and gazed lustfully at her naked form as it headed for the bathroom with him hot on her heels.

Playtime in the shower had eased some of her nervousness about meeting his whole clan. They dressed casually and headed for the park. It was only fifteen minutes away from their motel and as they drove up they could see a large group already gathered under a huge cluster of shade trees. Tables were laden with food.

As they parked the car and climbed out, Ursula spotted Mike sitting at one of the tables with a very pregnant brown furred and pretty she-kat. Across from them sat another she-kat, this one was tan colored with brown stripes. Next to her was an older she-kat with the same fur color.

Ursula suspected this might be Chance’s mother and sister. Standing behind them was a orange tabby tom holding a can of milk and listening to the pairs conversation.

Standing a couple of feet away from them, near a BarBQ grille, were three other toms, two were dark tan colored one with stripes the other solid. The third member of the group was an older tom the same color with dark stripes. It was then that Chance’s mother spotted them walking over.

“Chance!” She called out, getting up to meet her son.

“Hi, mom!” Chance said as he gathered his mom in a welcoming hug.

Mrs. Furlong moved back to get a good look at him. She smiled approvingly before turning her gaze on the lovely she-kat standing nearby shyly. She smiled at her warmly.

Ursula smiled shyly back and was captivated by the older kat’s beautiful green eyes. It was obvious where Chance had gotten his from.

“You must be Ursula.” Mrs. Furlong said suddenly turning from her son to hug her.

“Um, glad to meet you.” She said nervously.

Mrs. Furlong could feel the she-kat shiver a bit. “Aw, don’t be nervous, dear. We won’t bite! Come on, sit and let’s get to know each other, eh? West, Peter, Matt come over here!” She called, keeping an arm around Ursula’s waist and tugging her along. Chance was close beside her, smiling encouragingly.

West Furlong looked up to see that his son had arrived with a dark she-kat his wife was presently bringing over. ‘That must be her.’ Mr. Furlong thought. He moved to meet his wife with his sons, Peter and Matt following on his heels.

“So this the she-kat that’s captured my son’s heart, eh?” Mr. Furlong said, smiling broadly extending his paw to shake her paw.

Ursula could only nod at Mr. Furlong, too tongue tied to speak as she shook his paw. Then Chance’s brothers came close to wait their turn to greet her.

Peter was bright eyed and cheerful. He was the striped one she’d seen by the grill and Matt was the solid colored tom and was more sullen and disinterested, his brown eyes looking bored.

“Peter Furlong, nice to meet you. Ya know, if I weren’t mated myself, I’d definitely go out with you!” He joked, breaking the ice between them as he shook her paw.

“Watch it Peter or you’ll have me and Sarah to deal with!” Chance said in amusement as Ursula blushed at Peter’s comment.

“Matt Furlong. A pleasure to meet you.” He said cooly then began to move off, “Excuse me, someone has to keep an eye on the grill.”

“Err, nice to meet you both. My name is Ursula Feral.” She said a little surprised by such different greetings. Matt’s coolness and Peter’s cheerfulness, clashed oddly.

Chance took Ursula from his mom’s clutches and they walked over to the table where Mike and others were sitting. Chance’s sister got up from the table to greet Ursula first with her mate, Mitchell by her side. He was the orange tabby she’d seen. Mike was helping his mate, Jenny up from the table.

“Chloe Nightclaw. A pleasure to meet you.” She said hugging Ursula just as her mother had.

“Mitchell Nightclaw, relax Ursula they’re not going to bite your tail off…yet.” Mitchell said smiling.

“Mitchell! Don’t pay any attention to him, Ursula. Mitchell thinks he’s funny but he’s not.” Chloe snorted pulling him away.

“Hi, Jenny Furlong. You already know Mike, right?” Jenny asked as she extended her paw.

“Ah, yes. He greeted us when we arrived. How far along are you?” Ursula asked feeling a bit more relaxed now as she shook Jenny’s paw.

“Oh, any day now. It’s been fun carrying this little guy but I’m ready for him to come out now.” Jenny said sighing and rubbing her stomach.

“A tom? You must be thrilled.”

“Oh, yes very! Though Mike was hoping for a daughter, ya know daddy’s little she-kat, but he’s been quite happy with knowing he’ll be having a son soon.” She said smiling lovingly at her mate.

Chance could see Ursula was beginning to relax as she talk to Jenny. He used this moment to have a private word with his brother, Peter. Peter had been the first of them to mate and he wanted a little advice.

“Hey, Peter where’s Sarah?” Chance asked as he walked over to his younger brother.

“She’ll be coming by later. Hey, you going to pop the question today?” Peter asked, grabbing a can of milk from the cooler then tossing one to Chance.

“Yeah, do you think I’m ready for it? I love her and everything, but what if I’m not a good enough mate?” Chance asked as he caught the can then opened it to take a sip.

“No one’s ever truly ready or certain they’ll be a good mate. You never know unless you give it a try, Chance.” Peter said wisely, then added, “I had the same doubts when I asked Sarah but everything turned out alright.”

“Thanks, Peter.” Chance said with a sigh of relief.

“Chance, come here a moment, please.” Their mother called out to him.

His brother clapped him on the back encouragingly as Chance moved off to see what his mother wanted. As he walked toward her his father joined them. They moved away from the group so that they could talk privately.

“So, Chance she’s the one, eh?” Mr. Furlong asked seriously.

“Yeah, she is. Do you think she’ll like the ring?” Chance asked nervously, fiddling with the ring box in his pocket.

“Of course, she will! Chance, dear don’t worry so much. If you love each other it will go well,” His mother tried to reassure him, concerned at how tense he was.

‘He’s never been this tense before not even when he was waiting for his Enforcer tests results,’ West Furlong thought with a sigh but then getting mated was a serious change in one’s life.

“Right, right. Mom thanks for giving me the ring and Dad thanks for the advice.” Chance said hugging both his parents.

“Oh, Chance I’m so happy for you! Now remember! I’m not settling for one grand kitten. I want at least three or four,” She warned her son playfully.

“Mom!” Chance said blushing while his father laughed.

“Let’s head back! Sarah will be here soon and you know how she is if everyone’s not there. Take a deep breath son, you’ll do fine.” His mother said warmly, patting him on the back.

Chance thanked his parents again before joining Ursula, his brothers and sister at the table where they passed the time talking and laughing. Some fifteen minutes later, Sarah finally showed up. She was a beautiful ginger colored she-kat wearing a bright, flowered sun dress. She had a broad smile on her face as she walked up singing out a greeting to them all.

She headed straight for Chance, “Chance! It’s so good to see you.” She said hugging him tightly and kissing his cheek.

Ursula felt a little uncomfortable. Sarah seemed a bit too glad to see Chance as she clung to him a little longer than the dark she-kat thought she should. Add to that, Sarah seemed to deliberately ignore her during the greeting. She finally let go of Chance and her eyes showed how reluctant she was to meet Ursula. She didn’t know what the she-kat’s problem was but Ursula was determined to stay friendly.

She went to Sarah and said politely, “Ursula Feral, nice to meet you Sarah.”

“Oh, it’s nice to meet you too even after what happened with the other Feral.” Sarah said with a decided lack of enthusiasm she hid with fake politeness.

Ursula found herself feeling hurt and a little angry at that addition in Sarah’s greeting. It sounded like she held a grudge against Ursula’s real self. She would have liked to have snapped back but she wanted to make a good impression with Chance’s family so she bit her tongue before she spoke otherwise she would have ended up saying something she shouldn’t have.

“Well, uh thank you. I hope there are no hard feelings. After all Uncle Ulysses isn’t me.” Ursula said lying only a little.

“Well of course not!” Sarah said cooly.

Everyone seem not to notice the tension or chose to ignore it as they were urged to sit down and begin eating the food and drink. Sarah sat with her mate and away from them. That made it easier for Ursula to ignore her and enjoy the rest of the family although Matt still was standoffish.

As the food disappeared and it was getting late, Chance became extremely nervous. If he was to ask the question, it had to be now. Swallowing hard, he worked up his courage. This was worse than facing Dark Kat and he was the worst criminal in Megakat City. He was beginning to sweat something he never did facing criminals.

“Chance, what’s the matter?” Ursula asked softly, feeling Chance’s tension and smelling his unease in his scent.

“Um, Ursula there’s…something…I want to…ask you.” He stuttered a bit as he tried to spit out the words. Everyone around them went still, listening. Gathering his courage, Chance got off his seat and dropped to one knee, holding the ring in one paw and taking Ursula’s with the other.

He stared into her golden eyes as they widened with realization of what the tom was going to do.

“Ursula Feral, will you be my mate, now and forever?” Chance asked shakily, holding out the ring.

Ursula didn’t know what to say. Her throat had closed in shock. She’d never felt so tongue-tied in her life. She stared into his beautiful green eyes. He wanted her! For the first time in her life she was being offered something truly wonderful. Shaking herself, realizing everyone was waiting for her answer, she finally whispered her response.

“Y..y..yes,” she stuttered softly then swallowed and repeated more loudly, “Yes, I’ll be your mate.”

With a heartfelt sigh of relief, Chance placed the ring on her finger then wrapped his arms around her and kissed her senseless. Everyone around them cheered, except for Sarah, who looked rather upset by the news.

“Welcome to the family dear!” Mrs. Furlong said hugging her new daughter-in-law when Chance had finally let her go.

“Come here, Ursula. Thank you for making my son so happy.” Mr. Furlong said taking her into his arms for a warm hug.

Hoping this would happen, Mrs. Furlong had baked a special congratulation cake. She had her husband get it from the car along with champagne. Pictures were taken. The family circled the new couple and saluted their engagement. The party continued till after dark.

Everyone pitched in to clean up then said good night to all as they parted to return to their rooms with promises to meet for lunch the next day before they all departed for their homes.

Chance had never in his life felt so happy and relieved at the same. Relieved the answer had been yes, after worrying himself to death and overjoyed that Ursula would soon be his mate.

Ursula was also thrilled she would be mated to the tom she loved. This had turned into the best day of her life.

When they returned to their room, Chance was bursting with joy and excitement. “Ursula, I need to call Jake. I want to tell him the good news.”

“Oh Yes! I need to tell Felina as well,” she said equally excited. She took out her cell phone and quickly dialed her niece.

Chance used the motel room phone to call Jake. As soon as his partner’s voice came over the line, he blurted excitedly, “Jake, she said yes!”

“That’s great news, buddy. I’m really happy for you.” Jake said warmly.

“I can’t believe how nervous I was!” He said.

“Well it was a very big question, Chance,” Jake said in mild amusement. “You guys got a date set yet?”

“Not yet. My family was thrilled. We had a great time and they’ve all accepted her.” Chance said still high with joy.

“That’s good to know.”

“I’ll tell you all about it when I get back. See you Monday, Jake.” Chance said.

“Sure thing, enjoy the rest of your weekend and congratulations.” Jake said hanging up.

Meanwhile behind him, Ursula was relaying the good news to her niece.

“Oh, Auntie, that’s wonderful news. When’s the wedding?” Felina said just as happy as her aunt.

“We haven’t talked about that yet. His family, except for a couple, were thrilled for us. His parents are already calling me their daughter-in-law.” She said still trying to get used to it all.

“That is so cool. I’m just so glad for you. I can’t wait to call Callie tomorrow and tell her. We’ve got a lot of planning to do when you get back about the wedding.” Felina said excitedly.

“Oh god, I’m not sure I’m ready for all that,” Ursula said in dismay.

“Don’t worry Auntie, we’ll help you,” Felina reassured her. “It will be fun!”

“Oh sure!” Ursula said shaking her head and groaning at the thought of all the details a wedding entailed. “Well we’ll talk about that when I get back. Good night Felina.”

“Good night Auntie and congratulations,” Felina said hanging up.

“Jake was really happy for me,” Chance told her when they turned to each other.

“So was Felina. She was talking about wedding plans when we hung up.” She sighed in wonder putting her cell phone away.

“Yeah, we’ll have to decide that soon but right now all I want to do is make love to you,” He said huskily as he pulled her into his arms for a long kiss.

She sighed and melted into him.

They took their time pulling clothes off each other then falling to the bed. Chance made slow love to his mate-to-be bringing them to sweet release. He spooned her from behind as they slowly relaxed.

“Love you, Ursula.” Chance said softly, holding her closer.

“Love you too, Chance.” Ursula murmured snuggling back against him as they drifted off to sleep.

The next morning they got up around nine, made love again then got dressed to find breakfast. They were starving.

Next door to the motel was a really nice twenty-four hour diner. It was close enough that they decided to walk over. As they passed the end of the motel, they were joined by his parents and his sister with her mate.

They chatted happily as they spilled into the entrance. The hostess smiled at them and took them to the banquet area so that they could all sit together. It was like the party the day before. They all chatted amiably while waiting for their breakfast, while eating and as they finished. They planned to meet back at the park before lunch to have fun. They parted at the motel to change clothes.

Chance dug out a frisbee he had packed as Ursula put on shorts, tee and tennis shoes and tied her hair into a pony. He almost didn’t let them out of their room because she looked so delicious to his eyes. She laughed at him and pushed him out the door.

When they reached the park, they found they were the first to arrive. They went near the area the family had used the other day and began to toss the frisbee back and forth.

Ursula was having a very good time. She’d not done things like this since she was a kitten. They were good together, rarely missing the flying disc and sending it back and forth faster and faster.

His family began arriving soon afterward. Peter and Mitchell joined them in their game while the others began to set up the tables for lunch. Chance’s Mom and Dad smiled at each other as they watched the newest couple in their family having fun.

“It’s so wonderful to see Chance finally happy, West,” She said as she laid the tablecloth out then the silverware and dishes.

“Yes, it is, my love,” her husband said warmly as he began to unload the food and put it on the table.

“Well that just leaves Matt to find someone,” Chloe piped up as she brought the cooler of sodas up to the table.

“I’m sure he’ll find someone soon enough,” her mother said.

Chloe just snorted. Her brother seemed too aloof to want to seek a mate. He didn’t even care if he was here with the family. She watched him begrudgingly help bring more things from Sarah’s car. Speaking of Sarah, Chloe noticed she also wasn’t so cheerful about Chance’s engagement. She seemed to be avoiding Ursula as much as she could. Chloe sighed and shrugged her shoulders. ‘Well it’s really too much to ask for everyone to be happy, I guess,’ she thought then dismissed it from her mind and went to join the fun.

By one o’clock everyone helped clean up, last minute pictures were taken, and goodbye’s were said as the family split for their homes. Chance and Ursula were hugged thoroughly by his parents before they climbed into their car.

They went back to the motel to take a quick shower, pack their bags and check out. They waved bye to other family members they saw leaving as they got into their rental and hit the road.

Ursula was tired and happy as she relaxed in her seat for the ride home. Chance was humming to himself as he drove. It had been an incredible weekend.
