Iona's face went cherry red. She looked to the ground with embarassed eyes. ''Thank you, Chester,'' She said softly with a small giggle. She went all shy and embarassed and looked at the ground.

Chester laughed, putting an arm over her shoulder, "No need to thank me, love. I tell the truth." he murmured in her ear with a lazy smile. He mussed her hair before walking a few steps back, a small smile on his face.

Iona rubbed her own arm and looked around. ''So...is Sharra your only cat?'' she asked, trying to change the subject before she got too embarassed to speak. She looked around, looking for any more of the furry critters.

Chester paused, taking a moment to decide how to answer that, "Sharra and Cheshire Junior are the only ones who live me, but I have dozens of others that I only feed." Chester shrugged, kicking off his shoes and flopping down onto the couch. "Come sit down with me?"

Iona smiled. ''You good soul,'' She said as she thought about all the cats in the world that were strays and starving. She then nodded and wandered slowly to the couch and sat down next to him with a sigh. Her ears were back slightly, and her tail wrapped around her waist like a furry belt.

"Not with you I'm not." Chester said with a smirk, "But it's sweet of you to say so." he laughed, leaning back to examine the room. "Wanna watch TV?" he questioned a moment later, gesturing at a 32" inch television stuck in the corner of the living room.

Iona laughed. ''I dont care,'' She said shaking her head. She never watched tv, for they were always on the road, atleast that was until her father got this new job. She sighed and leaned against Chester. She was slightly tired, but content.

Chester shrugged and clicked on the TV, flicking randomly through the chanels with the remote. "You have any preference as to what we watch?" he questioned a moment later.

Iona shook her head, but siad nothing. ''Chester,'' She said after a few moments of silence. ''Why is my father's boss call the King of Heart? and who is his wife? i dont remember seeing her,'' She said softly.

Chester shrugged, "It's been that way as long as I can remember. It's just a nickname, though. His real name is Jeremiah. His wife's name is Marianne." he shrugged. He'd never really thought about it. People called him Cheshire Cat sometimes, but he'd put his foot down not long after it started. They didn't call him that to his face anymore..

Iona nodded. ''He seems to be too skiddish to be leading any buisness,'' She said with a slight giggle. She sighed and then giggled again at her own silent thoughts.

Chester snorted. "He is too skittish to be leading any buisness. That's why his wife, The Queen of Hearts actually runs it. It's only a front that he leads. We all know she runs it for real..." Chester chuckled, a memory surging unbidden to his mind. He was young, the Queen of Hearts was maybe 13 to his 6, and they were playing together. She'd been kinder back then...

Iona nodded. ''Do you work for them?'' She asked as she looked up at him, her Ruby eyes looked like two small curious gems, and her pupals ebonies looking at him. Her hand drifted to his and she held it tightly as she looked up at him.

Chester smiled, tightening his grip around her hand. "I kind of do." he said with a snort, but he didn't elaborate. She didn't exactly need to know what he did, nor did he care to explain it to her. It would definitely hurt her more than it would to help her to know what it was he did.

Iona nodded and rubbed her face against him. She let out a heavy sigh and her eyes drifted shut .
