~Eren~
Today is my first day at this school. I transferred because my mother passed away recently from heart failure, my dad relocating me with my sister Mikasa and him. My dad, Grisha, believes that we need to learn to be mature enough to take care of ourselves so Mikasa and I have our own house. We're well off my dad earning a surplus of money from teaching math at my new high school.
Mikasa, my dad, and I are all nekos. The only difference between us is that I am able to transform into a cat whilst they just have tails and ears. My tail is longer than a normal neko and very sensitive.
~later that night~
I sat with Armin on my bed. He was petting my ears, we're very close friends and consider ourselves family. Little purrs were escaping from my throat. "Eren, in Magic Practice did you start purring?" Armin asked me. My cheeks turned red as I mumbled, "Mmhm, the kid behind me accidentally brushed my tail during class." Armin chuckled at this, he knows that I get embarrassed very easily because I'm very shy.
All of a sudden Mikasa burst into my room, startling me. She looked at Armin and asked "Do you want to stay the night? It's already 11:30." Armin contemplated it for a while and nodded as a response.
time skip, 3:45 am
Armin was sleeping next to my in my bed and it was in the early hours of morning. I just got done studying like I did every night. I'm in advanced junior classes in every class except for Magic Practice. Ever since my mom died I've had bad nightmares where I woke up crying, screaming, or in a cold-sweat. My father took my to a psychiatrist to find out how to stop them. I was told to keep busy to wear myself out so I would be too exhausted to dream. And I did just that, I studied, took up multiple sports, and took on many jobs. It helped a lot even though I still get them once in a while (omgg if you know what this is based off of I freaking love you). The studying until early morning became a habit and I've lost many precious hours of sleep because of that. No one notices though.
time skip
"Armin, Eren, it's time to get up!" Mikasa yelled up at us. I shook Armin awake and he went down to get breakfast. Personally, I'm not hungry at all in the morning so I don't eat breakfast. I walked into my bathroom and began taking my shower.
I got out and wrapped a towel around my waist. I went into my room and grabbed a pair of garnet-red boxers, skinny jeans, and a deep-blue jumper. I changed in the bathroom and began to brush my teeth. Whilst I was brushing my teeth I stretched out my tail and my ears from being cramped all night long. I went downstairs to find Armin and Mikasa already waiting by my black Sting Ray Corvette.
"Eren, are you going to drive us to school or should Armin and I go ahead?" "You can go ahead Mikasa. I'm going to walk." I responded. I sometimes walk to school to calm down and just think about what I'm doing in my life.
I walk past the park when I suddenly hear the arrogant yap of a dog. Great, just what I needed.
I shifted into my cat form and quickly scrambled up into the old Sakura tree (yep, a Sakura tree bc I love them)
It takes me a while to shift back when the shift is caused by emotions. When this happens I usually go home or just watch the pedestrians. I decided I would just watch everything go by and I soon saw a familiar black cat drive by with two heads in it. I rolled my eyes to myself as I saw someone stop in front of the limb I was positioned on. It was the kid who sat behind me in Magic Practice. He looked up at me and I cocked my head at him. His eyes widened and he reached his hand out to me. I lifted my head so it would fit in the palm of his hand. (how to train your dragon toothless and hiccup hell yeah) He softly smiled at me and then walked off to what I presumed to be school.
