Smoke And Fire

Ava and company

Katelyn's POV:

"AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT TRAVIS - OUR TRAVIS - CAME UP WITH THAT ?!" Lucinda cried,

"Uh... Yeah," I shrugged, "Travis was just trying to help. It's just one of his dumb suggestions!"

"Well it would acutually work!" Lucinda smiled, "Here's £300! Go to the pet shop and get a cat! And make it cute..."

I grabbed my helmet and jumped on my motor bike. Speeding towards town.

At the pet shop...

I walked into the smelly shop. There must have been 20 different types animals and 300 isles of shelves with pet care junk.

I ambled over to the main counter and greeted the stubby looking lady.

"Hello dear, What can I do for you?"

"Hi, I'm looking to get a kitten. I've never owned a pet before so could you help me get everything I need?"

"Ah! Yes, I'll show you the way to the kittens,"

The lady hobbled over to the other side of the store with me close behind. She led me into another room which had about 15 kittens running around, playing.

"Welp, I'm going to get food and water bowls for you while you choose a friend!" The lady grinned and left me alone with the cats.

I wondered around for about 5 minuets looking at the kittens, judging them on behaviour, fur and friendlyness. Eventualy, I narrowed it down to two. One was pure black with green eyes, it lazed around alot but was protective of its personal space while the other was orange and white with yellow eyes, this one was verry playful and realy seemed to like me.

I kept trying  to remember that this kitten would be lucindas and that she would most likely like the black cat best but the orange one was purring it's way right into my SOAL!

Anxious about time and money, I left the room and ran around the shop for a few minuets analising the prices of everything. I came to the conclusion that in order to keep a single cat, It would be at least £100.

"Made your mind up yet dear?" The lady asked, handing me two silver bowls,

"I have." I smiled.

Lucinda's POV:

"We're back!" Katelyn called.

I went over to greet her and the new little test dumby. I MEAN PET!!!!

"So, I trust you chose a cat that will fit my liking," I said as I watched Katelyn put a strangely large basket onto the floor,

"I have!" Katelyn smiled, "But I kinda got carryed away..."

She nervously opened the basket and a black kitten with dusty green eyes slowly and casually left it.

"OMI, Katelyn, She's so cute! I will name you Avangaline!" I declaired, picking up my new little kitten, "What do you mean 'You got carryed away'? She's purrfect!"

"Um... Well... Ava, was it, has a brother," Katelyn nervously grinned as a second kitten jumped out of the basket.

"WHAT?!" I asked in shock,

"I'll pay you back, I promise! It's just, this one was too cute to just leave there!" Katelyn pleaded, "He'll stay in my room and he won't bother you at all!"

I giggled a little. Katelyn, the toughest girl on the street, was begging me to keep a kitten like a little girl. I acutaly think that this second one has a little charm to it! Good for him, if he hadn't I'd be taking him back to the shop myself!

"It's ok Katelyn! I don't mind. But yes, you will have to pay me back. BylettingmecuddlewithhimwhenAvaisalizardorsomething,"

"OMI! THANK YOU LUCINDA!" Katelyn cheered! "I'll go bring in the pet care stuff from my motorcycle!"

"Hey, Katelyn," I asked,"What's this little guy's name?"

Katelyn smiled as she puted a bag of cat food and toys on the kitchen table, "I've names him Dally,"

Travis' POV:

I flicked through the pages of the book, looking for something simple. 'Something funny' I thought. I found a page that would be fun to try.

I bet you didn't read the hole thing. Don't deny it! I have proof that you didn't. So just go back and read the chapter properly. (You just read 693 words)
