Chapter 14

Two months had passed since the earthquake.

Mittens sat on the porch of the large California home. It was night.

She wasn't alone.

"Hey Mittens." Bolt said quietly.

"Bolt? When did you get back?" Mittens asked.

Bolt chuckled. "What? No hello?"

Mittens kissed Bolt on the nose.

"WOAH! Okay. I wasn't expecting that kind of hello."

"How does your new lung feel?" Mittens asked.

Bolt shrugged. "Like a new lung."

He looked out at the bright lights of Hollywood. "Beautiful, isn't it?"

Mittens nodded. "Yeah. You know, I thought you were dead."

Bolt smiled. "I've been hit twice by a car and shot. Rushing into a collapsing school didn't seem too deadly."

Mittens followed his gaze to the city. He was right. It was beautiful.

"So was it worth it?" The cat asked.

"Worth what?" Bolt asked, puzzled.

"Worth everything you went through?"

Bolt shook his head. "Nothing's worth someone else's life Mittens."

The two were silent. They watched the city lights.

Bolt spoke. "You know, I like you. And I think you like me. So why aren't we...?"

"Well...I'm a cat. You're a dog. It's not right."

Bolt frowned. "What's not right about it?"

Mittens shrugged. "Natural born enemies."

The two animals kissed.

"Theres no such thing as natural born enemies."
