" So...what am I supposed to do with him..." I thought as I watch Joshua eat the breakfast I made for the two of us. I trace every feature of his face and feel my face get warm. He's so handsome, is it possible for someone to be this good looking? Joshua clears his throat and look at me with his brown eyes in an eye smile.
" Do I fascinate you that much that you only stare at me?" He asks with a smile. I gulp.
" I-It's not that....I just was thinking that it's weird....I mean technically I adopted you.. w-when you were a cat. So I don't know what to do now." I said.
" Please don't throw meow out..." He said, he turns slightly pink. " I-I meant me.." I can't help but giggle.
" Well... you could stay in the other bedroom... and maybe you can go to school with. Wait, wouldn't your family be worried about you?" I ask. Joshua looks at his empty plate.
" I don't know. I don't really have a family." He said. My eyes widen as I shoot up in my seat. I go to him and wrap my arms around his shoulders, pulling him to me.
" Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry." I said. Suddenly a poof of smoke comes and I look to see Joshua with large orange cat ears on his head and his face flushed. I then realize what I'm doing and let go of him.
" Omo, sorry." I said.
" It's okay... they pop out whenever...I'm embarrassed.." Joshua said looking at me. I clear my throat and sit back down.
" Then it's settled. You're going to stay with me." I said with a grin, he smile widely.
" Thank you! Oh, I just realized! I never got your name!" Joshua said.
" Oh, I'm Kiki!" I said with a smile. Joshua only smiles as his ear twitches. I burst into giggles as he tells me to stop.

" Oh and make sure not to get embarrassed. You don't want your ears to pop out in the middle of class." I said as I tie Joshua's tie. Today is the first day of him going to school with me. He nods as clutches his schedule.
" Don't be nervous you'll be fine." I said as he flashes me a nervous smile. We almost had the same schedule so I had most classes with him. The minute I walk in with Joshua, a bunch of the popular girls gasp. They all stare at me, and I roll my eyes and sigh. I knew this was going to happen. I felt a pang of jealously as the girls swarm over Joshua as he takes his seat. Of course, the queen of the school, Vicky pushes her way in the front of the group and starts flirting. I growl under my breath, but then I get a grip. For one, it wasn't like Joshua was my boyfriend or anything, so I can't do anything about it. And I'm pretty sure he doesn't like me like that. I sigh as I get my notes out and class soon starts.

" Kiki!" I hear a voice say. I look up and see Joshua. I grin slightly and pat the seat next to me. He slides in.
" What are you doing here all alone?" He asks.
" Oh..well I don't have friends so I always come to the library for lunch. That way I can read." I said. Joshua frowns slightly.
" I'm your friend right?" He asks with a pout. I stare at him.
" I-I guess so." I said with my face warm, I have to look away to take a break from his adorable face. Joshua smile angelically. The bell rings, summoning us to go to another class.
" I'll see you later." Joshua leaning over. He pecks my cheek before scurrying away, and I sit in shock.

" Ready to head home?" I said to Joshua as we walk through the hall. He nods with a smile. I grip the books I'm carrying and try to make sure I don't fall. Vicky comes strutting down the hall and trips me. All my books fall everywhere and I end up kissing the floor.
" Kiki!" Joshua said in alarm.
" Heh, watch where you're going you freak show! You almost scuffed my new shoes." Vicky said snottily. She turns to Joshua, playing with a strand of her hair flirtly.
" So, Joshy when are you gonna ask me out?"
My eyes widen at her question. There's no way she was going to take him. No way. I have to do something fast!
