[My Neko]
©Nouis_Strikes_Again.___.
Not a few days after you had forced yourself to hesitantly stick tape flyers along the neighbourhood, you soon had a caller.
A man had phoned up saying that his Neko had gone missing through the storm. He affirmed to you the name of the Neko and went on to explain how Harry had always been frightened of storms.
You gave the man your address and it was now that you waited for him to turn up. Your hands rubbed up and down Harry's back as he lay comfortably in your lap. His tail swished over your legs that had spread out along the couch.
Harry was going to go home today. And you didn't know how to take it. You had bought special food for the hybrid and even his own little blanket he always used when on the couch. Biting your lip painfully at the thoughts, you leant forward and kissed the Neko's hair.
A knock came to the door and you physically tensed, realising how real this situation was and that it was actually happening.
Hesitantly putting Harry beside you, the Neko looked up a bit confused as you made your way over to the front door. You wanted to throw back the door and find out who actually took legal guardianship of Harry. But then again, you didn't want to have to face them and realise that they were taking Harry away from you.
Deciding to suck up to fate, you pulled open the door and smiled politely at the figure that stood before you. Goddamn was he attractive. But a man like this has to obviously have a girlfriend.
"Hello." Your smiled tightened just as easily as it had loosened.
"You must be Harry's owner." The man nodded and held his hand out.
"I'm Liam."
"(Y/N)." You responded and stepped aside. "Well, come in. He's in the living room." Liam nodded happily at you and stepped into the house, you shutting the door afterwards.
Leading Liam into the living room, Harry smiled once he saw you. But his smile grew even wider when he saw Liam.
"Li!" He yelled holding his arms out for his owner. You stepped back with a forced smile and watched as Harry reunited with his owner. His actual owner.
Your chest ached as your arms tightened around yourself. It was stupid of you to become attached. He was always going to find his way home somehow. A beautiful Neko like that isn't so easily forgotten.
Liam pulled Harry into his arms as Harry clung around his neck. The sight had become too overwhelming for you, so you averted your eyes elsewhere.
"Thank you for looking after him (Y/N). I'm extremely grateful." Pulling your eyes back up, you saw Liam hold his hand out to you. Gesturing for a mutual understanding, your hand took his as he gave it a firm shake.
Harry looked back and smiled between you both before you rubbed your neck.
"It was no problem. He is a little cutie." Liam chuckled in agreement.
"He is a looker. And definitely a keeper."
Of course he was.
Shaking the thought from your head, Liam smiled over at Harry before clearing his throat.
"Once again, I am extremely happy that you took care of Harry. Thank you very much." You nodded. "But we must be going now. Need to take him down to the vet to have his health checked out."
Oh great. Thanks Liam. Thanks for the insult. Because I'd obviously get Harry sick, yes.
"Looks pretty healthy to me." You smiled the most forceful smile ever pulled as he rubbed Harry's back affectionately.
"No, no. I mean have him checked out before I begin his breeding program." Your eyes grew wide.
Oh. Was not expecting that.
"Really?" Liam hummed in delite.
"Harry sure will bring a lot of buyers out to breed more Neko's. He'd pass on a good gene." Well, it was true. "Anyway, we must be off. Thank you once again. I know I've said it a lot of times." Liam began making his way to the front door as you followed him out.
Harry's eyebrows furrowed as he looked between Liam and yourself. When you stopped at the front door and Liam continued to his car, Harry's eyes widened.
"Nnngh!" He hummed, reaching out for me. Your bottom lip trembled as you waved weakly at the Neko.
"What's wrong Harry?" Liam asked opening the back car door as Harry kept his arms out towards you.
"Goodbye Harry." Yoy choked out quietly as Liam tucked him in before getting to inside the car as well. With a honk of the horn, you watched the car drive away and felt the emotional pain rise to the surface.
So without another word, you slipped into the house and slammed the door; your sobs began to wrack through your body as you slid down to the carpet.
Harry was gone. He was actually gone. But it was the right thing to do... right?

Time had passed after Harry's departure. Hours turned into days. Days turned into weeks and you found yourself following into your normal routine again.
Looking outside, you saw the rain pounding down along with a few strikes of lightening. It gave you a brief reminding of how this weather led Harry into your garage.
With a sad smile, you sat quietly on the couch, wrapped up in a blanket; a few candles being the only thing giving light to the room.
The power had gone out a little while ago so you had to improvise. And it was hard to find things to improvise with when the only thing you had was your phone's torch.
A scratching and banging sound then came on your front door, causing your face to scrunch.
Who was that? Did somebody's car break down? Why were they at your door?
Pushing the thoughts away, you stood up and came to the front door. Pulling it back with a confused look, a pair of arms then flew around your legs. You instantly looked down to go wide eyed at the being.
It was him. He was actually back.
"H-Harry?" He looked up with glossy eyes that easily tugged at your heart. Kneeling down, you pulled the Neko into your arms as he wrapped himself closely against you; his cries beginning to shake against your body.
You shut the door and pulled the soaking Neko into the living room.
What was he doing here? You didn't understand. The first time was a coincidence. But the second had you look twice on the option.
"What are you doing here Harry?" Pulling his shirt off, you left his shorts on as you wrapped your blanket around him. His fingers clutched to your sides as he hid against you.
Yet despite it all... despite the storm outside, despite the distressed Neko holding onto you... he was here. And there was no way in hell that was a coincidence.
