~ Chapter One: Quiet But Somewhat Possessive  ~ 

"Come on, mate, you live in a mansion all by yourself! This could be good for you," Louis' mate, Liam, pleaded. Louis was very rich, so he lived in a mansion, by himself. Not that he minded, it does tend to get a bit lonely occasionally where he wished to just cuddle up against someone while watching horror movies. But that wasn't a lot, he wasn't one for horror movies, anyway. Liam was pleading Louis to get a pet hybrid, since a store just opened not too far away.

"Now you know I can't, Liam, I have work and I can't just leave the poor boy here by himself." he replied, grabbing his shirt and tossing it in the closet. Now, there was no way Louis would ever buy a girl hybrid, everyone knew he was gay. And he means  everyone. His fans, his family, his friends and he was glad everyone supported him.  Liam looks at him, with his eyes squinted. 

"Then, if the hybrid really needs me, i'll come over and babysit him. Come on, Louis. Please? Just think about it, having another person to share this big mansion with, to cuddle and to love." Liam was very stubborn, Louis absolutely hated his stubbornness, he looks over at Liam to see him giving his puppy eyes. Louis groaned and looked away, he really hated the puppy eyes, it makes him give in so easily.

"I managed to do it with Niall," Niall was his puppy hybrid, Louis loved the lad. He was adorable, especially with the way his dog side comes out. Louis shook his head and looked at the ground, knowing he was giving in. "I'll check out the store in a moment, if there is nobody there I like, then i'm not getting one. Okay?" Liam nodded and clapped his hands, smiling. He was really happy that Louis wasn't going to be alone anymore. Louis hated being alone. 

As soon as he finished straightening his room, he drove over to the hybrid store. Liam decided to wait in his game room, Liam already knew he was gonna do it,  Louis figured because he brought kitten toys. How would Liam know he would buy a kitten? "Because, you told me it would be too hard for you to take care of a dog."  Liam's voice rang in his head and he rolled his eyes as he parked in front of the store. He walked in and saw the salesman perk up at the 'ding' that sounded right when he walked in. 

"Ah, hello there! Looking for a hybrid, I assume?" Louis resisted the urge to scoff, obviously he was. It was a hybrid-pet store after all, instead he smiled and nodded. "Kitten or puppy?" the man asked as he led him to the back. 

"Kitten, please." the salesmen nodded and opened a door that had a cat image on top, he walked in and all the kittens perked up, peeking out of their cages to see who was there and them meowed quietly. There was none that sparked his interests, so he kept walking. But he saw a cage that had nobody peeking out, so he bent down. He looked up at the salesman who gulped nervously, the kitten must've heard something because his head shot up and beautiful piercing green eyes stared at Louis. Louis was in awe, this was the most cutest hybrid he's ever seen. And you'd be surprised if you'd seen Niall. 

"Hey there, love." the hybrid didn't reply, just stared at Louis intently. The hybrid moved closer and his ears perked up, Louis put his finger through and wiggled it a bit, trying to get a reaction out of the kitten.  The salesman was quite nervous, scared that the hybrid would bite him. He stared at the finger, then sniffed it, before nudging his nose against it softly and then licked it. Louis smiled. "Can I get some information on him?" because he was so confused on why the salesman looked so nervous.

"He doesn't speak much, he's a little submissive and dominant. He's had a very dark past, where he would attack his owners and other hybrids. He has trust issues, too." the salesman, who Louis learned his name to be Frank, informed him. Louis nodded and looked at the hybrid who was just staring at him with green, innocent eyes. 

"I'll take him." Louis said, both the hybrid's and Frank's eyes widened, Frank was surprised. "A-Are you sure? Wouldn't you-" he was cut off by Louis. "I said, i'll take him." Frank scrambled to unlock the cage and the hybrid slowly placed his hand on the ground, which he soon retracted his hand, a slight whimper from him. 

Louis bent down, "Come on, love, it's okay," Louis assured as he soon climbed out, his grey ears perked up as his eyes scanned the room, before he looked at Louis. Louis kept his smile as the hybrid seemed to scan his face, then his eyes lowered. "I'm Louis, and you are..?" Louis asked, hoping the hybrid would say something.

"Harry." the hybrid, Harry, soon mumbled. Louis' eyes widened slightly, the sound of his husky and deep voice surprising him a little bit. Louis noticed Harry's hair was slightly wavy and long, a bit past his shoulders. He was a bit tall, not that much taller then Louis, but still tall. He looked down and saw Harry's brown tail with a some grey at the top wrap around his thigh. Louis signed some papers and soon they were off. Louis opened the door for Harry and Harry slightly smiled and crawled in. He looked at Louis as he soon closed the door, it slamming shut. Harry mimicked what Louis did and a small squeak emitted from Harry as it slammed as well. Louis chuckled and Harry's ears perked up even more at the sound. 

Harry watched as Louis put his seat belt on, the red thing making a click sound and Louis retracted his hands. Louis looked as Harry again, followed Louis, but this time having trouble. Harry's eyebrows furrowed as he tried to put the seat belt into the hole like Louis did, Louis chuckled. "Here, i'll get that, love." Louis said and leaned over, pushing the seat belt in and Harry sat back with a slight sigh of annoyance.  Louis drove off and noticed, from the corner of his eye, how Harry looked out the window with fascination. 

He soon reached his house and helped Harry out of the seat belt, Harry soon walked over to Louis and his mouth dropped at the big house. Harry has never seen a house this big, well, he hasn't seen a house in general. Louis chuckled and grabbed Harry's hand, feeling him tense up then relax. He guided him inside, where Louis' maid walked up to him, greeting him with a smile and then greeting Harry, who just stared at her. Louis took him upstairs and into the game room, because he knew Liam was dying to meet his new hybrid. "Hey Louis! Have you found one - oh hi!" Harry squeaked slightly, his tail swishing side to side gently behind him.

"Liam, this is Harry. Harry, this is my best friend Liam." Liam waved and Harry nodded, Liam looked at Louis. "He's not much of a talker." he nods. They all sit down and Harry stares at his new owner, he wasn't too displeased with the one he has. He was quite cute to Harry, with his fringe and his ocean blue eyes, and his small petite body. He notices how Liam was getting close to Louis, Harry felt some rage in his tummy. Was he jealous? Harry kind of lost it when Liam wrapped his hand around Louis' shoulder as they talked. Louis soon heard a noise, it sounded like a growl. He looked around and his eyes landed on Harry, who was staring at Liam's hand and the low growling was rumbling from his chest. 

Liam immediately removed his arm and placed it on his lap, Harry scooted closer to Louis and Louis wrapped his arm around him, Harry soon places his head on Louis' chest and sighs. A soft purring-like sound rumbles from Harry as he softly rubs his head up and down his chest, barely noticeable but Louis feels it. Louis' heart flutters at the fact that Harry was already, somewhat, protective of him. The purring sound got louder as Harry scooted closer to Louis, his tail wrapping around Louis' waist. Louis looked at Liam, who was smiling at the boy. "Well, I best be going. Niall's  probably gonna get worried sick because it's getting late. Bye Louis, nice to meet you Harry." he left a small kiss on Louis' cheek, like he normally does.

Harry takes notice of this and soon starts to wipe Louis's cheek, Louis smiles at him fondly. "No kissie." Harry mutters as he continues to try to wipe what wasn't there. Once he was finished, he yawned, showing off his canines and then cuddled into Louis' chest, hiding his face. Harry started to purr as he drifted off to sleep. Louis knows Harry's just being cuddly because of his cat side, but he can't help the fluttery feeling he has in his heart as Harry falls asleep on him. He smiles softly at the boy and carries him to his room, laying him on the one side of the bed before he changes into his pajamas and laid down next to him, smiling at his new hybrid.

"Goodnight, kitten."
