Chapter 38: Kitten Play Time

——

We arrive at my house and I hand the cat to Harry, running in to take Fox out real quick.

I go inside and see Fox on the couch. He looks up and wags his tail happily. "Hey, buddy!" I smile and walk over to him. He knows what he wants and rolls over onto his back. "You're so spoiled." I mumble, giving him a belly rub. "Let's go outside!" I nod to the kitchen and he gets excited, his tail hitting the couch cushions. "Come on!" I watch as he scrambles off of the couch, running to the back door. He slides on the tile and I giggle. I open the back door and he runs around and sniffs everywhere. He stops and does his business, marking his territory and I shut the door real quick, running to grab an old towel to wipe his feet off with. I hear him whine and hurry to go back to the kitchen.

I open the door a bit so he can't get in, blocking his way to get inside. He tries to get past me. "Sit." I tell him sternly, holding out my palm facing him. He does as told. I get down on one knee and offer him a paw. "Shake."

He gives me his right paw and I clean it, doing the same to his other legs. He shakes and I close my eyes, turning away. "I'm trying to dry you off, you silly goose." I quickly dry him off and let him through the house, shutting the door. "Treat?" I ask. He pants and his ears perk up at the word. He jumps and I laugh, going to the treats on the counter. I get a Pedigree stick. "Sit." I repeat, doing the same motion as before. He sits. "Shake." I bend down and he gives me his paw. "Lay down." He does as told, watching the treat in my hand. "Good boy!" I smile and give him the stick and he takes it in his mouth. "I'll be back later." I scratch behind his ears and kiss his fur.

He trots back to his spot on the couch and lays down, eating his treat. I fill his bowls up with more water and food, walking out the door. I shut it behind me and lock it, putting my hood back up. I look at the car and see Harry looking down at his lap and smiling. I scurry to the car and get in, putting my seat belt on. I look over to see the animal sleeping in Harry's lap. I sigh. "Want me to take her while you drive?"

He nods. "Sure." He carefully hands her to me and she stays fast asleep. He puts the car in reverse and backs out of the driveway.

We head to his house and see that Louis isn't here yet and go inside. I sit down on the couch. The kitten starts to wake up and stretches. "She's waking up, Har." He sits next to me.

She opens her hazel eyes. She meows and my heart melts. I look at Harry. "Should we make those fliers?"

He nods. She meows again and stretches some more, covering her eyes with her paws.

"I kinda wanna keep her."

He looks at me. "Really?"

"I mean..." I shrug and look down at her. "I don't know."

"We'll see if someone doesn't claim her first. If not then maybe... I can take her?" He asks.

"Do you know how to care for a cat?" I ask, lightly scratching the cat underneath her chin.

"I had a cat when I was younger. I took care of him."

"If you know what you're doing. What will Louis think about you possibly having a cat here?"

"I'm not sure. I'm sure he'll be fine with it."

I nod. "You'll have to buy food and stuff." I look at him.

"I know." He sets an arm around me and looks down at the cat.

I look down at her and dangle one of the strings on my hoodie and she grabs at it, making me laugh. I continue to play with the cat. I set her on my lap, her head resting on my knees.
