After mark dropped off luke he went over to Katalinas apartment to see if she was home yet. He knock on the door a couple of of times, but there was no answer. Looking for the spare key Luke let himself into her apartment and found the cat sitting by the door as is waiting for someone. The cat was sleek and had all black fur. The weird thing was that the cat the most striking blue eyes, most cats have green eyes. Not this one.

“Hey beautiful,” he said to the cat as they stared at each other, “have you seen your owner? Has she been here at all today?” He asked the sleek black cat.

“Meoww!” The cat yelled back at him.

“Ok why don’t you stay with me tonight until Katalina comes back we’ll leave a note on the door for her.” He found a piece of paper and wrote a short note explaining that he took the cat and taped it to the door. Luke scooped up the cat and went up to his apartment.

Opening the door, Luke set the cat down so that it could get a feel of the place. it was weird, Luke had never been allowed to have a pet when he was growing up. Though he never told his mother, he did secretly have a pet rabbit that he found one day while playing outside.

As he went to get ready for be the cat wandered around his apartment, looking around and sniffing everything. By the time Luke was ready for be so was the cat. Climbing into bed Luke patted the space next to him so that the cat could could come and sleep next to him. He turned on the T.V. and watched a little before finally falling asleep.

Kat woke up with a stretch and rolled over to get more sleep. As she settled in to get back to bed, she noticed that the bed seemed too big and the blanket felt different. Opening her eyes, Kat looked around the room-definitely not her room-and started to panic. She shot right out of bed and look around. There were two different things she noticed right way: first, she was naked; second was that here was a man in the bed.

“Oh god, what happened last night?” She whispered to herself. looking around, Kat found a rumpled T-shirt lying on the floor and put it on. What was she doing here?

Kat slowly and as quietly as possible walked to the front door and opened it up, trying to be very stealth. Then one of the floorboards creaked. Kat stood still as a statue, hoping that the man did not hear her.

“Hello?” He called out, walking into the living room where Kat stood at the door.

“Luke?” Kat took a look at the man.

“Katalina?” Luke Looked just as surprised at her being naked in his living room as she was. “What are you doing here? And why are you wearing my T-shirt?”

“Oh, boy.” Kat closed the door knowing there was no way she was going t o be able to give him an easy, quick explanation. “Ok, well, lets start at the beginning.”

“Of?” Luke looked more confused by the minute.

“Sit.” she gestured over to the couch and he walked over and sat down. She came over and sat next to him. “Well first of all, I’m a witch. Second, I’m a cat.” she said in a rush.

It was a full minute before Luke said anything, “a witch and a cat?” At her nod, he laughed. “You have got to be kidding me, there is no way that you can be telling the truth.”

“Why?”

“Because there is no such thing as magic.” He looked her in the eye as he said this.

“Ha! Ok, let me try something.” Kat sat facing him. “As the flame lights shadow and truth ends fear, Open locked thoughts to my mind's willing ear, May the smoke from this candle into everywhere creep, Bringing innermost voices to my mind and speech.”

Ok, I have no idea what she is doing. Really cute though, would have been nice to have her sleep next to me at night. Luke looked at her with a blank stare.

“Well, thank you for saying I was cute. And in fact I did sleep next to you last night, I was just a cat.” She gave him her best smile.

“Well, that was too easy, try this.” I love little pussy, Her coat is so warm, And if I don't hurt her, She'll do me no harm. So I'll not pull her tail, Nor drive her away, But pussy and I, Very gently will play.

“Wow, never heard that rhyme before. Are you saying you want to play with me?” She winked at him.

He laughed, “ok, I believe you.”
