You sit on the grassy hill, face towards the sun, eyes closed, purring. Your tail and ears twitching in delight at the newly found sunny weather near your secluded home. No one usually came around this area, so you didn't need to worry about the Whitecoats. You whipped your head toward the treeline a few yards away, hair flying, as the bushes rustled. You stopped purring immediately and watched as a man with light brown hair fell lazily out of the bushes, and face-planted on the grass. Cats surrounded him and you could have sworn he was the one purring, not the cats. One of the cats pranced over to you, and away from the man. As soon as this happened, he looked up and cried, "No, kitty! Come back!"
Then he spotted you.
He.
Spotted.
You.
You froze, shocked and frightened. It took you a moment to process what was happening. You tried to get up quickly, startled, but knocked to the ground as the man captured you in a breath-taking hug. He pulled back slightly, though still very close, and stared at you in awe. A few moments later a very flustered man fell out of the bushes and stood up straightening up his clothes. He had black hair, deep chocolate eyes, and if you had to take a guess, you'd say he was most likely Japanese.
"Greece! Get off of that poor woman! It's disrespectful to just ratch onto peopre rike that!" He exclaimed.
The man who had been now labeled as 'Greece' turned, without letting go, to look at the man. "But Japan! Look at her! She's a kitty!"
'Japan' looked extremely irritated, but yet calm at the same time. He sighed. " No she's no-" He stopped mid-sentence a he saw your tail and ears. "Y-You're a neko?" He approached slowly, then quickly ripped 'Greece' off of you. "I'm very sorry about my friend. I'm Japan, I'm very glad to meet you." He bowed politely.
You stood up nervously and bowed politely as well. You knew your kin were from Japan, but you had never met a human from there before. "I'm (Y/N). I am pleased to meet you, Japan-san."
'Japan' smiled, nodded, and replied, "What are you doing out here all alone? Are there others with you?"
This caught you off guard, although you should have figured he would ask this. Nekos were good friends with the Japanese. How should you answer? Before even thinking your answer you shook you head no that you were alone here. He looked surprised to say the least.
"Why are you here alone? It is dangerous for you to live here untrained the ways of you kin."
"I-I didn't know that. I was just getting away from the Whitecoats."
"Whitecoats?" 'Japan' asked.
"Yeah, Whitecoats. They have needles. They're really scary."
"You mean doctors?"
You nodded although you were't sure if that's really what they were called.
He eventually convinced you to come stay with him in Japan. You became very close with him and learned many things. Such as he fact that you were one of the few of your kin still existent. He taught you how to defend yourself; take care of your claws, ears, tail, and teeth; and even to make yourself seem human around others who didn't know of you or your kin. You lived with him for almost four years, with Greece as your best friend. You had found that they were the personifications of countries and that's why they were called what they are.
As the fourth year of your meeting him neared, you began to realize your feelings for Greece. He was absolutely adorable, the way he would fall asleep randomly but often, or how he would pet your ears and play with you. Eventually you then realized you had started liking him about month after you met him what with the scare he caused you at your meet. Well today you were going to hand out with Greece, and realizing these newly found feelings, you were hesitant to go. I mean, you could just say you don't feel good, but then he'd insist on coming over to 'heal' you with his cats.
You sighed as you pulled on your skirt and fixed your hair. You were going to be with Greece for a while and you didn't want to look horrible at least for an hour or so, although he really wouldn't care.
Grabbing your keys you head to the door and for you cars, heart pounding in your chest as you made your way to Greece's home.
