(Y/N) POV

Well how do I say this... I was now standing in my kitchen deciding what to cook for dinner while a purple cat is sitting on my couch watching TV. After Mystery had followed me and asked if he could stay with me, I kinda said yes but now im completely lost on what to cook. What the hell does he eat? Do furries eat human food or some special type of furry food? Might just ask him? That kinda sounds good. Giving up i closed the fridge and walked over to the lounge room and stood behind the couch. Mystery feeling my presence turns over and looks at me "What?" He questions. "Hey um... what do you eat? Like, what is your favorite food?" I asked him. "Cactus" He simply replied. I gave him a weird look and walked back in the kitchen leaving him to watch TV again. Cactus??? Where the hell am I gonna get that? I looked over at the kitchen window, my small cactus pot plant sitting there. I could give him that...? Wait! oh hell no I am not feeding him my cactus plant. Would he even eat that....? Wont it hurt swallowing that? What the hell am I thinking? I sighed then thought of an idea "Hey is having pizza for dinner alright with you?" I called out to Mystery. I heard him reply a "yep sure" so I just ordered some Pizza for us.

After dinner I went upstairs to get my room ready. I was gonna let Mystery sleep in my room and me take the couch just cause I'm that nice. After cleaning it up I went back down stairs and saw Mystery again watching Tv. I sat next to him and watched as well, he was watching the news. I got bored of it eventually and went back into the kitchen. I just remembered that I am gonna need a job. I could support myself with the money my parents left me for a few more months but now that I have Mystery with me I'm gonna need a job as soon as possible. I walk over to one of the newspapers sitting on my kitchen counter and picked it up grabbing a marker. I started circling most of the job applications, decent jobs that aren't too hard but pay well. I saw there was a spot open for a waitress and another spot open for a mail sorter. I was debating which one I should take but then I heard footsteps making their way over to me "What are you doing~?" Mystery said as he leaned over me and looked at the newspaper. "Getting a job since I need the money" I replied. Mystery nodded and sat at the chair on the opposite end of the table and stared at me. I kept on looking through the newspaper but occasionally took glances at Mystery and every time I looked up he was looking at me. I sighed and put the newspaper away "I'll show you where u can sleep." I said as I started walking upstairs. I heard a chair scrape and footsteps following indicating Mystery was following. I stopped at the door to my room "you can sleep on my bed, try not to mess up my room, I'll be downstairs on the couch" I told him and left before he could protest or say anything else. Once downstairs I crashed on the couch and closed my eyes feeling very tired suddenly.

Mystery's POV

(Y/N) went downstairs before I could say anything. I kinda wanted to tell her that it was fine if I took the couch. I sighed and opened the door and walked into her room. It was clean, guessing she cleaned it after dinner. I sat on her bed and it was so surprisingly comfy and soft. I lay back and immediately I got a sweet scent with a hint of Vanilla...(Y/N)'s scent. I dug my face into the pillow taking in the scent as I let my thoughts run. I have only met the girl like two days ago yet I am somehow drawn to her. Why is it that her scent and everything she does affect me so much and make me feel like I want to be with her. Could it be...? Nah no way in hell.

(Y/N) POV

I woke up to the sound of something falling out of my kitchen cabinets. I sat up and took a glance at the kitchen. A Mystery stood there with bandaids all over his upper body. Thank god furries had fur instead of just skin, but i still couldn't help but blush slightly at the fact he was half naked. Still tho, since when did I have rainbow bandaids in my kitchen cabinets. I'm just not gonna question it. I got up sleepily and walked over to Mystery "what the hell are you doing...." I asked still half asleep. Mystery stopped putting bandaids on himself and looked over at me "oh, morning~" he said happily. "Cmon take those off, while I prepare breakfast" I said as I walked over to the fridge getting some eggs. Just gonna make a simple breakfast, bacon and eggs. I could hear Mystery spraying lovely words behind me as he took off the bandaids. I'm surprised he listened to me, I looked over to see him slowly taking off the bandaids, pulling some of his fur out along with them. I started getting breakfast ready and when I was done I was surprised to see Mystery dressed and sitting down, no bandaids in sight. Where the hell did he get them from anyway, and since when was there such thing as rainbow bandaids. I put the plates down and we started eating.

(Time skip)

I came back to the hospital, since Alfred was still helping me find a way home. Of course Mystery followed me, saying he can't wait to see his 'best friend' again. We walked through the doors and were greeted by a impatiently waiting Alfred and a sleepy Kao. "Why is he here again..." Alfred said as soon as he saw Mystery. Mystery ignored Alfred's comment and run up to him giving him a hug. Alfred however made a shocked and disgusted face which made me laugh a little, it was funny seeing him make that face. After a bit of yelling between Alfred and Mystery's smooth comebacks we were back at the same room I was being examined in the other day. Mystery once again sat in the corner of the room looking bored as fuck, Kao I have no clue where he went. Alfred soon came back with the blood files. He started mumbling some random stuff as he looked through the papers and at the blood. He then turned and looked over at me "well your skeleton looks close to ours but your blood is way different so in other words I have no clue what you are" Alfred said putting the papers down. Well that's great, so much help he was..."what is your species name?" Alfred continued getting a pen and paper "well back at my world we are called Humans" I replied. I could see him taking notes "okay I'll have to see what research I can dig up later, you can go for now.." Alfred spoke turning back to his computer. I looked over at Mystery who was still in the corner, he looked back up at me, still looking very bored. "We are done here Mystery, lets go home" I said. Mystery stood up and we were about to walk out the door until Alfred called out "Hold on! Are you two living together?!" I stared Alfred a little, is it that bad that Mystery was living with me? I mean sure he has killed people but he won't try to kill me right? I just slightly nodded to respond to Alfred, he just sighed and went back to his computer.

Alfred's POV (bet u weren't expecting this ;P )

Damn I can't believe Jeremy is living with (Y/N) , I mean it's not like I have feelings or anything for her, she is just an interesting species and I don't want Jeremy to kill her. Besides she's a great friend to have around. I better keep an eye on Jeremy who knows what that sick bastard is planning, he killed my parents no doubt he will kill her too. I took out a cigarette packet and took one cigarette out and lit it, slowly enjoying the smoke filling up my lungs. I heard the door open and I turned over to see Kao "Alfred! No! Bad! I told you no smoking!" He said as he came up and took it away, throwing it in the bin. I sighed and looked back at my computer screen. Humans..huh... heard about them before, never thought they were real until (Y/N) came along. "Since we aren't doing something tomorrow and it's gonna be warm... wanna invite (Y/N) to go to the beach with us??" Kao suggested. I peeked up at that idea and nodded, besides I get to watch over her and keep that damned purple bastard away from her.


(Ooooh Alfred, Mystery better watch out, he got some competition XD but yea this chapter nothing really happened, just small relaxing chapter, nothing too much going on, hopefully I can come up with some drama to happen soon >~< I honestly have no clue what else I am gonna do with this book *faceplants onto desk*)
