Plant Lover

00 | a short meeting

You sat on your knees, the school skirt you were wearing flattened down as you looked at two cat treats debating which one to buy for your picky kitty, usually you would just buy the same thing but you wanted to see if he would try something else.

You looked around the store, getting ready to see if you could ask the pet store owner, if he had any clues.

The door opened with a chime as an overly excited boy walked in, stars practically surrounding him as he muttered loudly to himself.

You perked up and looked at him, you didn't get to see his face but he reminded you of someone, you shrugged off the feeling and stood up, dusting off your skirt. He seemed to know a lot about this store since he seemed really knowledgeable and knew where most stuff was.

So you guess it wouldn't hurt to ask him about what would be good to buy for a picky kitty. Plus he looks really nice.

"Our cats would like this, should I buy them?", He happily questioned himself as he looked at the shelves.

"um excuse me", You mumbled loudly enough for him to hear, he glanced at you with a head tilt. Your eyes went wide when you saw who he was, you quickly shook off your shock as you looked at him.

"Sorry am I in the way? ", He muttered with a small pout as he stepped aside, you waved your hands.

" no, no your fine I just wanted to ask a question", You chuckled nervously not making eye contact with him, he perked a bit looking at you with curiosity.

" you know a lot about cats or at least know something because you were mumbling about your cats and I have a picky kitty and I was wondering if you had any clue on what to get him between these two", You rambled holding up two cat treats that you spent too long on debating on. He made a thinking face.

"Wellll, do your cats like sweet treats or salty treats because if he eats [cat brand] you should give him the sweet one and if it likes [another cat brand] you should give them salty or switch between the two treats and see which ones he likes better", He stated giving you a smile, you let out a relieved sigh.

" Thank you so much! This is my first time having such a picky kitty", You hummed as you put the sweet treat back and held the salty one. He gave you another smile a blush on his cheeks as he chuckled nervously waving you off.

"You don't need to thank me, I was just helping a fellow cat lover out", He joked looking at you slightly nervous hopefully you weren't weird out by him calling you that. You gave him another smile before gasping in realization, he looked at you puzzled.

" I gotta go! It was nice meeting you though", You muttered rushing to the cashier who scanned your item, you paid and rushed out the door not before throwing a goodbye wave at the boy who watched you leave with a happy look that slightly dimmed.

He never asked for your name, you could've been cat buddies.

"Ahhh I'm so stupid", You muttered in english as you ran into an alley way leaning your back against the wall, you put your index and thumb together before putting them in your mouth, a high pitched whistle existed your mouth as you blow. Your other arm held out in a boomerang way.

You waited awhile before the sound of flapping of wings came closer before your companion, Corbin, came into view.

He looked at your arm before ignoring it, looked at you with a head tilt and flying closer to your face and pecked at your head, you let out a hiss as you pushed him away.
