Moooommmmm?!

Friday night. I am inexplicably tired. Watching the first Harry Potter movie for the umpteenth time, I fall asleep in the Big Chair with Gus, Taylor, Boris, and Sophie on or near me.

I wake up long enough to stumble to bed. Dylan and Taylor follow me and automatically go to their places.

I am nearly asleep when I hear:

mew. murr. murr. mew? meow! murr.

On and on and on.

Oh crap, I think. Blue's gone and got himself shut up in the bathroom.

I wait.

mew. murr. murr. mew? meow!

Crap.

I try to move Dylan and Taylor out of my way. I fling back the covers.

The bathroom door is open. No Blue. Then I hear the call coming from my office.

I turn on the light and Blue blinks up at me. Meow?

I sigh. "Blue. It's bedtime. Come on now."

He hops down and I'm asleep before he can start up again.
