Excerpt from
Snooze or Lose by Jude Cocaigne
"Musty? Where are you, you stupid kitty? Musty! Come home, please!"
Susan wrapped herself tighter in her wooly shawl. Winter was getting particularly cold much sooner than usual. Flurries of frost twirled in the garden and played with the naked branches of the cherry tree.
As she was about to give up and head back inside, a muffled growl followed by a sharp yelp caught her attention.
"Who's there? Musty, is that you?"
"It is," said a male voice Susan recognized to be Dax's. "Gosh, your cat is ferocious!"
He appeared from the dark street and walked towards her, Musty begrudgingly balled into his arms.
"Dax? What are you doing here?" He was at her place; he knew where she lived, and he was there. The coolest guy of school, at her place.
"You're turning blue," he said.
"Uh?"
"You're cold, Snooze. And although blue would suit you, I like the color of your skin as it is. Come on in."
Dax took her by the shoulder and escorted her inside. He sat her in the living-room and busied himself with the fire while she crashed back down to earth.
"Dax! What are you doing here? How do you know where I live? Why are you here? What's happening?" Then it hit her. "Dax! The fire!"
"Yes? It'll do you good fast."
"But... you're ice... fire thaws ice..."
"That's about right, but I'm still of flesh and bone. I won't melt, you know! But I might sweat."
He laughed and took off his light grey jumper to reveal a light white shirt that hugged his body so tight, Susan could see the blue hue underneath. She averted her eyes, her cheeks suddenly burning.
"Soooo Dax... What brings you here exactly?" She played with her hands and hair in an attempt at keeping her calm. She wasn't fooling anyone, though.
Dax's countenance changed as he sat next to her on the couch. "I'm not gonna beat around the bush, Snooze. Ze World is in danger, and you might be the key to saving it."
