Chapter 9//Cupcake

But after a while he grew distant from that cookie for his quest hadn't been completed yet. The cookie seemed to try desperately to cling onto what ever was left of there friendship.

Wizard's POV

I was shocked honestly, that he could think of a plan like that. It was impressive to say the least. He seemed a little weirded out that I was so interested but I was, and maybe it was a little strange. But I don't care. I just thought it was interesting and that's that.

One thing that was clawing in the back of my mind was what he said, am..was I a little jealous? No..that's stupid why would I be jealous over something so stupid!? He was just talking to Strawberry..and he sounded so friendly and so happy. I guess he might not like me as much as I originally thought. Why am I so sad about this..? Maybe I am a bit jealous but that's probably normal. I sighed turning back to Spice who was walking happily behind me, he looked at me and then did a little wave and walked a little faster so he would be closer to me. When I turned forward I rolled my eyes  but laughed at him, just a little,

"Hey! I'm curious, why do you like cats so much?" Spice asked, now right next to me,

"Oh, well I just think that they are great companions! There were a lot of cats wondering around in the forest, I'm not sure why really maybe cookies around me just had outside cats? And they were very skittish at first but I formed a bond with most of them. I fed them a lot since a lot of them were pretty scrawny. They were very sweet cats." I explained happily remembering them,

"I do miss them a lot some times, I wonder if they would remember me." I questioned as Spice glanced over at me,

"Aww, That's so sweet! I'm sure they miss you." He commented adoringly,

"It was really nothing, I just fed them anything they would eat. It was funny because one would love to eat crisps for some reason." I laughed softly I never understood why he liked them because no other cat would even think about eating those,

"Really? That's nice." He laughed smiling at me contently, I was glad that he seems to be happy around me. He did say that he cared about me too much to leave. I adjusted my hat, feeling slightly self conscious. I would guess being worried about constantly does that to you,

"Speaking of all this small talk, I would like to know a little more about your background. Like where did you come from? I know a kingdom but which one, or do you not remember?" Spice chuckled a little,

"All these questions are scaring me, why are you so interested in me?" He joked,

"I- well I'm just trying figure out where you came from! I wanted to know a little more about you and maybe I could understand why you like kingdoms so much." I explained a little embarrassed,

"Oh, well I guess I could tell you, actually I lived in the one closest to us. Well, before you know.." he noted,

"Wait you used to live in the kingdom we are fighting? Don't your parents still live there?" I said shocked,

"Maybe they do. I miss them terribly..although even if I saw them again I probably wouldn't have recognized them." He sadly realized, I felt that weird feeling again of almost pity but not exactly. This time I had an urge to comfort him, he'll probably just say he deserves it again. And for some reason that made me very ticked off. I felt like he didn't deserve it,

"I know that it's probably hard I'm sorry that I don't understand. I have no clue who my parents are. The closest thing I have to family is Strawberry, she feels like an older sister to me." I explained sympathetically,

"Don't feel bad for me. You have it much worse I probably deserve-" he began,

"No! I'm not letting you throw yourself under the bus again! Sure, some things may have happened in your past but that doesn't mean you deserve it! I can't stand you saying that.." I complained irritably. He looked surprised and was a little redder now,
