"Since when did you have a cat?" I hear Harry from the bottom of the stair case as I chop up cucumber. I glance up to find Whiskers purring and rubbing her head against his chin.
"She's so fluffy!"
I giggle at the sight as he looks at me with pure excitement over seeing a fluffy cat. She starts to lick his jaw and honestly who could blame her.
"Her name is Whiskers, I've had her for years." I say as I now move onto mixing the salad for dinner. Harry coo's as he looks down at my cute baby.
"She's adorable." He says as he walks over and sits at the stool behind the kitchen counter. Whiskers gets a little uncomfortable at the sudden change of position so she hops off of his lap and he stands back up to dust her fur off of his clothes near the door leading to the backyard.
"She's actually been super moody lately. I'm surprised she even let you pick her up." I chuckle, thinking of how she still waits for me at the staircase but runs off when I go to pat her.
I guess she is just getting old and grumpy.
"That's cats for you." He says as he comes back over and glances down at the food I've made.
"Can you grab that bowl for me and I'll bring the chicken over to the table." I gesture towards the bowl of salad after picking up the other plates of food. He nods and grasps the bowl, following me towards the dining table that I had already set up.
It was currently the weekend and we both finally have a day off from work. It's been a few days since we last hung out and tonight I was the one to message and make plans. I was feeling really upset before about losing Archie as a friend. I miss him...but I realised that he is a bit of an narcissist. I dislike him but I dearly miss his stupid face and personality that always has me smiling.
I can't believe it's taken me this long to realise. Sure I've had my moments where I've thought about some selfish things he has done but my mind always reminded me that people are allowed to have their greedy moments.
Sighing, I place a piece of chicken on my plate and begin eating. Harry glances up at me after hearing my depressed sigh and sends me a funny look but doesn't question it.
"So I was thinking of taking you to this really cool place tonight." He says as I feel his foot nudge mine under the table to get my attention. I glance up from swirling my food around on my plate and feel myself become curious.
"Where to?" My mood seems to pick up at this. I actually really like how he makes these plans to surprise me. It's really thoughtful.
