The Kitten and the Wolf - L.S. ✔

Chapter Three

It's 11 pm and Louis should really be asleep. He has his first day of school tomorrow and he actually didn't plan on going there with bags under his eyes you can see from ten miles away. But still, he can't seem to be able to fall asleep.

He sits up, ears straight in the air as he hears a howl from the woods behind the house. His inner cat is telling him to go and look what's going on there.

Curiousity killed the cat, he reminds himself, but still. The urge to go to the woods is great.

With a sigh he gives in. Louis gets up and goes to open his window. He steps back and closes his eyes to focus on changing. The cat hybrid doesn't need to worry about his clothes, because he is smaller in his cat form than he is now. Obviously.

Only a moment later a brown cat with long, silky fur and yellow eyes sits amongst Louis' clothes. The cat steps out of the fabric that has no use to him other than making a comfy bed out of them. He shakes his fur to fluff it up a little more. With an elegant leap he lands on the windowsill. Without any sound he jumps onto the gras under his window - a cat always lands on it's paws. He soon runs into the woods, following the howls.

Louis walks slowly as he comes closer to the source of the howls. He is not that deep in the forest so he will be able to find his way back to the house. The barely noticable cat stops as he hears commotion on the other side of the bush he is standing at.

Just as he is about to step into the bush to take a peek on what is going on behind it, someone grabs him by the back of his neck. Louis immediately pulls all his paws closer to his body as he hisses at the person holding him. Luckily it doesn't hurt him - the way he is held.

"Look what I've found!" the guy cheers as he steps onto the clearing behind the bush.

Louis spots a few wolves, but also some werewolves in their human forms. The humans wear only shorts.

The brown cat then tries to wiggle out of the persons hold as wolves and humans walk towards him. One with a bunch of tattoos - not that he is the only one, a lot of them have tattoos - steps forward, a smirk on his face.

"Hi kitty cat." he says with a slow, deep voice. He moves closer to look at Louis closer, green eyes scanning the cat.

Why the fuck are they so interested in a cat?! Louis asks himself slightly panicky.

As the guys face is close enough to Louis', the cat hisses and lashes out scratching the werewolf across the nose. The alpha growl and Louis finally manages to twist out of the person's hand that is holding him.

As soon as his paws hit the ground he speeds to the next tree, climbing it up and out of reach for humans and wolves. Some of the wolves try to jump up and get him. Louis presses himself as close to the trunk as possible, his breathing going quickly.

The guy Louis scratched across the nose tells them to stop - to Louis' surprise. "It's just a stupid cat." he adds. "Let it be."

A relieved sigh leaves Louis' mouth as his eyes catch the green ones of the alpha who spoke. The cat tries to thank him with his eyes. It seems like the alpha understood, because Louis swears he saw him nod ever so slightly before turning around and jumping onto the back of a grey wolf. With this everyone turns back to whatever they were doing before Louis was found.

The yellow eyed cat is quick to climb down the tree and run back to the house. He is sure he will sleep like a baby now.

As Louis walks into the school building next to his sister, Shawn and Aaliyah, all eyes are on them. Karen told them that they both don't have to get anything, because she already did. So Louis and Charlotte have their shedules - the same as Shawn and Aaliyah - and their locker information.
