Jareth raised a curious eyebrow at the digging rodent. Her fervent motions and skittishness was amusing to say the least. However, he could help but let his heart go out to the young girl…being so alone..and so low on the proverbial [he paused to look up into the sky to see a circling bird]… and literal food chain. The next thing he knew, she was scurrying back into the indoors… He blinked before chuckling lowly and following suit…closing the door behind them.
“Heh… Not so much for the outdoors, eh?” ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mila haulted when Jareth spoke to her, she thought that they were going their sperate-ish ways, she looked up at him and offered an embarassed laugh "I guess not, it's pretty scary out there, can't really have fun when things are out to eat you..." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“I wouldn’t let anything eat you!,” he said quickly.. Almost too quickly. Blushing slightly, looking away, and rubbing his arm, he murmured awkwardly, “Anyways…I’m sorry for you loss….and stuff….Yeah…” Looking back at her and offered a small, shy smile, “If there’s anything you need…Just ask… I’m here…” He wasn’t sure about her, but he had had enough of being alone…. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I wouldn’t let anything eat you!"
Mila was taken aback when Jareth quickly declared her safety, slowly she smiled.
"Anyways…I’m sorry for you loss….and stuff….Yeah… If there’s anything you need…Just ask… I’m here…"
Mila’s smile grew "It’s alright, I didn’t really lose him, I’ll see him when its my turn to go... and-" She paused to look him in the eye, it was then that she detected a sudden longing, but for what she didn’t know. ‘Does he want me to leave? Or is it that he wants me to stay?’ She was confused, so she would try a gentle approach "-But, would you be willing enough for me to keep you company today? I don’t think my first few days with out my family is going to go well emotionally, so if I have someone to talk to or hang out with, it should keep my mind of it right? B-but if you don’t want to, that completely understandable, I am a big girl, I’ll get over it in no time

“Sure..I’ll gladly keep you company,” he grinned…the jerk-y mask he had built for so long starting to fade…. “But…If you don’t mind me asking…How old are you? You look pretty young to me, but” He added sheepishly. “I’m not the one to judge mouse people’s ages,” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mila blinked "How OLD am I?" Her hears dropped "I'm not old, I'm young." She raised a brow at him as if it were obvious, mouse people didn't keep tabs on birthdays or holidays, it was only about survival and keeping your loved ones alive, which -in their world- was quite a chore. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Oh- oh- oh..,” started Jareth, “You have me all wrong…I’m not calling you old.,..I’m just..Your age..,” he ended weakly his own ears going down before giving out a sigh. “Er..I take it you don’t keep track of dates or times or events or what, huh?” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mila bit her lip, 'What are dates and events? I know what time is, though I can't tell it...' She blushed "I... uh... I know its afternoon time?" She smiled weakly "And I think that I'm a... young adult? Teen-ager? Right?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
‘Holy crap,’ He thought with wide eyes, ‘She really doesn't know much else out of her mouse-like life huh? Well...Then I'll help her out. She deserves more in life then just hiding and surviving day by day.’ Taking a determined look, he smiled at the young mouse, "My, you have quite a lot to learn young one... Luckily you have me around." He added playfully. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mila gasped; her ears went straight up, her eyes practically glowing with excitement "R-REALLY!?" She squealed, her fist pumping as she bounced happily "I get to learn stuff!? You'll teach me stuff!?" Her tail went crazy as she tried to keep from screaming with ecstatics. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jareth’s formerly icy heart melted at the sight of the ecstatic girl before him… “Why of course…..What exactly are you interested in learning? Anything you are particularly curious about?” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I want a birthday!" She said instantly "But I don't know when I was born, people are happy on birthday I've seen it on the tv! I want one too!" She inched closer to Jareth "Can I find out when I was born or can I make my own birthday!?" She suddenly gasped "AND I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT HOLIDAYS!" The tv had spoken of those a lot as well. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jareth laughed,"Of course you can have a birthday....Everyone deserves at least one day dedicated to themselves..I can't quite figure out your birthday myself...but you can make one up for yourself...When do you want it? Today? Tomorrow? Next week? Next month?...As for holdiays...well...it's July...sooo...there's none coming up for awhile....but we'll get to the holidays lesson soon enough." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“I get a birthday,” Mila squealed, she didn’t know the months and days, how was she going to decide? “What was yesterday?” She asked suddenly. “Yes you do! And yesterday was July the 15th…,” responded Jareth with a soft smile. “Wait..Let me get a calendar real quick!” It only took moments for the feline boy to retrieve the calendar. It was a family tradition of sorts to have one posted on the fridge. Sitting back down next to Mila, he gave another soft smile. “Let’s figure out a day so we can mark it on this here calendar…” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mila stared at the calender 'July 15th eh?' "I-I have an idea! Mila said with a grin "Sense this is the first time anyone has cared about my birthday and today is the first day of our... friendship! I want today to be my birthday! We don't have to celebrate it now because it's such short notice." Mila bit her lip a little and began to fidget "That's the right word right? Friendship? Is that what we are?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Of course today can be your birthday….And Bah! I don’t care what you say! We’re celebrating it,” he said with a smirk before softening his features…”And..I do believe this is the start of a friendship…and a grand one at that,” he ended with a wide grin plastered on his face… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mila blinked and a wide smile took over her face, she didn't know what to be more excited about. Her first birthday, her first friend, not having to face everyday alone. Tears started to well up, she had never cried because she was happy so she was slightly confused about it, but she quickly got over her confusion and said "Thank you so much Jareth, you're awesome!"

Jareth’s tail swished slightly in worry as he saw almost an upset look on Mila’s face, but before he could ask what was wrong, she spoke up. “Thank you so much Jareth, you’re awesome!” These words took Jareth aback. No one has ever labeled him “awesome” before…Blushing slightly, he murmured. “It’s no problem, …None at all. This is when a loud “DING DONG” resounded throughout the house.
Jareth frowned. “Who the hell could that be?,” Jareth wondered out loud while standing up. Looking down at Mila, he gave a worried look and said, “Maybe you should hide, yes?...I know some very mistrustful people…unfortunately…” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mila’s ears perked and her tail gave a sudden swish “Maybe you should hide, yes? I know some very mistrustful people…unfortunately…” Jareth said Mila’s rodent half had taken over by then, she quickly lowered herself and she retreated unnaturally fast to her room in the wall. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jareth approached the door in annoyance wondering who dare disturb him at this moment only to open the door and inwardly groaned. There stood two of his “friends”…And much to his horror..One was Tom..The “sick freak” me mentioned to himself earlier. ‘This is just fucking peachy,’ he thought to himself irritably as he force a smile and spoke up. “Tom..,” he paused and nodded to toward the hyper orange feline boy…”Blake..,” he nodded towards the solemn gothic feline boy ….”Er…What a pleasant surprise!” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mila was safe in her home, but she stayed crouched down and highly alert, she listened intently as they spoke. Blake gave a soft snort "Liar," he said with a smirk, the only reason he was there was because Tom thought they were all good buddies. It was sad that Tom didn't know that Blake and Jareth didn't even like him, and Blake and Jareth hardly liked each other, they were all just raised together and never seemed to fully separate, much to Blake's dismay. But neither really had the heart to flat out tell Orangie that they didn't want anything to do with the retard, at least that's how Blake felt. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tom grinned widely at Jareth before him, acting as if he hadn’t hurt Blake’s snide comment, as he gave the boy a swift pat on the back. “Hey Hey Hey…Long time no see! It’s almost as if you’ve been hiding from us!,” laughed Tom…Not knowing he wasn’t so far from the truth.
Right about as Jareth was going to interrogate them further about why they were here, Tom decided to invite himself in..Much to Jareth’s annoyance. At least Blake wasn’t as stupid to think he actually liked them …. All three of them stuck together due to one person’s –Tom’s – idiocy.
“Haha,” began Tom, “You really let this house go Jareth…There dust over dust over dust…Hehe…And is that a HOLE in your wall!?” ‘OH SHIT’ thought Jareth hoping and pray Tom wouldn’t catch on to what exactly that hole was ….

The hair on the back on Mila's neck stood up, her ears pinned back and her tail swatted at the air. She slowly moved to the wall and out of sight. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blake sighed and stepped in after Tom, he didn't care about the house, he just leaned up against the counter with his hands deep in his pockets. He stared at the floor then let his eyes wander to the hole Tom was snickering about. His eyes narrowed as he watched something move in the darkness "Pest," he murmured in disgust. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jareth could feel his lip starting to curl in anger as his sensitive ears hear the word “pest” coming from Blake’s mouth. It took his entire being to keep from going ape shit on the two… The prejudice bastards…He took a deep breath before forcing another smile on his face. “You two still never told me what you’re doing here….” “Bah…Who needs an excuse to see a friend, right?” “Haha…Right…,” responded Jareth through clenched teeth. ‘Fuck my life!’ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blake couldn't help but snicker, it was so obvious to him that Jareth was irritate by their surprise visit, or their visit period. Tom was either a TOTAL idiot or Blake was more sensitive to people's feelings. He watched as Jareth was nearing a cracking point "Tom," Blake said in his deep voice that had always sounded dark, even as he was a child "I think Jareth may have been busy with something, perhaps we should let him be? Why don't we go get a bite to eat?" Blake was and anti social person, but that didn't mean that he wasn't a caring one either. He didn't want to bother someone that he didn't even want to bother with, and he didn't feel like seeing a grown man pout, be it Jareth or Tom after Jareth snaps. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jareth gave a sigh and forced an almost sad smile, “Blake’s right..I am kind of busy at the moment…Doing..Stuff…Yeah….,”he paused to clear his throat and look at Tom only to not see Tom at all. After looking around wildly, much to his horror, he saw Tom on the floor…His arm reaching into the “hole in the wall” …The scraping of claws on wood made Jareth want to vomit…Though that was not the only reason why. Giving a snarl and a hiss, Jareth cried, “WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!?” Blake roller his eyes when he saw Tom's attention start to follow his nose, in no time he was on the floor and pawing the hole he had seen earlier. 'He finally found the mouse.' But Blake was a little taken aback when Jareth started to shout, simply something like Tom not listening wouldn't make him go off like this. The dark haired teen stayed quiet and decided to watch what happened next. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Mila bit her lip when she heard footsteps coming closer to the hole, then she almost screamed when a HAND came straight into her room. She pressed herself against the wall in horror as the hand tore her home apart, knocking everything out of place and even breaking some stuff! She gasped when the hand brushed against her, instincts took to offence and she bit down into flesh as hard as her jaw would allow... Which for a rodent is pretty damn hard. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tom grinned mischievously as his hand searched through the cavity in the wall for his “prize”…Only to end with a sharp pain starting in his hand and shooting up his arm. He gave a loud yowl as he withdrew his hand from hole only to see a little mouse girl firmly attached to his hand. “YOU LITTLE BITCH!,” he snarled.
