She was lying on my bed (I was sitting up cross-legged) at my feet and was getting her morning scritches from me. Well, she was enjoying it SO much that her eyes were closed and she barely noticed when Ferris jumped up on the bed and stretched out just behind her.
So I'm scritching and scritching and her eyes are closed in total bliss, and she puts her head back so I could do under her chin, and as she put her head back she leaned it up against Ferris' rear flank so that she was using him as a pillow.
He realized it right away, and you could almost see the hope grow on his sweet little face that maybe she really likes him now, enough for future cuddles, and maybe even - dare he hope - grooming, and then she opened her eyes, realized where her head was, FREAKED OUT and ran away immediately!!!
Poor little Ferris just lay there looking after her, like, "Hey...I'm not so bad, really!"
I keep telling her that he just wants her love, but she doesn't care - I think it's an ego thing. She likes him enough, but she'll be darned if she'll admit it at this point.
Poor little boy of mine - oh well, at least he had that one moment!
