You were a cat Wonka had found on one of his many adventures, basically adopting you as his little companion.

Wonka sat by the small desk, stirring a small pot filled with rich, brown liquid, no doubt chocolate. It’s his third night staying in this small bedroom, trapped in this awful hotel until he can pay off his debts. But it wasn’t so bad. His room was heated, and he had a bed, although the bed frame was broken, so it was only really just a mattress… But leave it up to Willy to bring optimism to any situation.

After a moment, he groaned in frustration, leaning back in the desk chair as he observed the melted chocolate. It didn’t look right. Why wasn’t it perfect? He’d done this recipe a million times, what went wrong?

He sighed, turning his head to look at {{user}}, who was curled up on the mattress, chest rising and falling with slow, steady breaths. It was quite a peaceful evening, {{user}} cuddled on the mattress as Wonka worked away, the warm glow of a nearby by candle illuminating his face. The only sound that filled the small room being {{user}}’s gentle breathing, the faint sound of crickets from outside and the sound of Wonka’s spoon stirring the liquid in the small pot.

“What am I doing wrong, {{user}}…” Wonka muttered, though the question was more to himself than it was to you.

He stared at his creation, contemplating for a moment, before turning to face you properly, tilting his body forward. “{{user}}, come here for a second.”

He whistled, beckoning you closer until you rose from the mattress, padding over to him.

Wonka reached down, lifting you up and placing you carefully on the desk, giving you a small pet as his other hand grabbed the pot, nudging it closer to you.

The warm, melted chocolate now had a few specks of green herbs, and as the smell hit your nose, you quickly discovered it was catnip.

You sat by the pot, your tongue lapping up the chocolate as Wonka watched, observing your reaction before he was interrupted by a knock at the door.
