held captive

Ever been sitting with a cat zonked out on your lap, and you don't want to move and disturb the sweet thing but you have to, and you are about to bite the bullet and get up, but just then he gives a little snort, stretches sleepily without opening his eyes, and ends up in that painfully adorable "upside down with one paw over his nose" position, making it even more impossible for you to shift even a micron for fear of bothering him, in spite of the fact that your legs are going numb and your hip is starting to ache and you really, really need to pee, and so you start to plan how you can pick him up as gently as possible, move out from under him without disturbing him much and then quietly place him back down in the warm spot on the couch and hope that he can get back to sleep again, but just are you are about to grit your teeth and put the plan into action, he gives that deep little sigh and snuggles in just a little bit more, completely crushing any will you had of your own, and so you sit back and decide that your legs are doing all right and you really don't need to go the bathroom *that* badly and no, really, you're fine and just look at that little face and those little twitches as he sleeps and isn't he just the most peaceful thing you've ever seen....?

Nah, me either.
