Chapter 1

"This is it! Today is the day!" A boy said to himself hiding in a bush behind the school, classes seemed to be over at this point. He looked only about 17, and oddly though he looked like a student in his uniform, he also had a white lab coat on; the wind blew making his short pin-straight jet black hair, now fall on his face as he waited for something. All of a sudden a boy much more muscular then the boy in the bush turned the corner; he held a piece of paper in his hand, which read:

"Come behind the school at 3:00pm"

The boy wearing a sports jacket stood there patiently waiting for something or someone. With a better look the boy in the bush could tell right away that it was the all-star basketball player on their school team, Atsushi Kudo, also the boy in which he had a crush on. Today he was finally going to profess his love to Kudo. The boy from the bush then stood up abruptly and drank a sweet smelling purple liquid from a small clear bottle that he took out of his pocket.

"With this, Kudo will fall in love with me, Nao Yukimura!" As he thought this he started to walk toward his love and his heart was now beating like an engine anticipating Kudo to fall in love with him immediately. Though before he could even take two steps he grew ill and fell to the ground, when he had awoke he was a cat. At first he didn't notice until he felt like he was closer to the ground than usual. At that moment as smart as he was, he ran towards a window to see what happened to him. When he saw his reflection he simply couldn't understand what went wrong with his potion.

"What happened?! I'm a cat?! The potion was supposed to make him fall in love with me, not turn me into a cat?!" Nao said to himself though to any bystanders it sounded like a cat meowing. Now depressed, he saw Kudo who had left for basketball practice earlier when he passed out, but now 2 hours had passed and it was over; and Kudo and a few other team mates were now heading home, it was nearly nightfall. Kudo and his teammates now walking out of the school grounds threw the gates; Nao not knowing what to do stuck in his current body, ran to Kudo for help, scratching on his leg meowing.

"Looks like you have a friend there Kudo." One of Kudo team mates laughed.

"Shit a black cat, the last thing we need is bad luck, get rid of it!" Another one of Kudo team mated said disgusted.

"Tch, stupid cat!" Kudo said as he kicked the cat off his leg, though in shock, Nao kept persisting on trying to get Kudo to help him by pawing his leg to get his attention. Now mad Kudo kicked the cat across the sidewalk. "Get away!" Nao after getting kicked that hard in this form blacked out.

When Nao awoke he was still in his cat form laying in someone room on their bed. The bedroom looked pretty typical for a teenage boy; it was pretty small and had one window, bed, and dresser. All of a sudden the door opened and a boy with medium length light pink/ blonde hair tied up into a low ponytail and piercing green eyes entered the room. Nao scared of everything that has happened today tried to stand up and run but he immediately fell in pain, flopping on the bed, from where he was kicked by Kudo. The green-eyed boy walking towards the black cat put a saucer of water in front of the cat then stopped and stood there.

"You know it's amazing your alive, you broke 3 ribs. Did you get into a fight? You poor thing." He then reached his hand out towards Nao, but Nao hissed scared. He then began to talk again. "My name Kazuki Akiyama, I saved you from dying on the sidewalk, I'm not going to hurt you, I took you to the vet, and apparently you broke 3 ribs. You can stay here for as long as you want. Now listen you may not like me but I need to change your bandages". Kazuki then reached towards Nao, Nao remembering his trauma from earlier in the day scratched Kazuki hand. Kazuki hand was now bleeding. Kazuki didn't flinch and continued to reach his hand out to Nao, Nao now closed his eyes flinching. Though to his surprise Kazuki petted his head and changed his bandages. Kazuki then headed for the door but before he left he spoke to the black cat on the bed as if he could understand him. "I'll sleep on the couch so I won't scare you any further. The beds all yours." He then left the door a crack open and resided to the couch. Nao then rolled into a ball the best he could with his broken ribs then thought to himself as his eyes tear'd up. "Why did this happen… This can't be real my beloved Kudo would never do this to me… When I wake up I'll be back to normal, mom will be making me pancakes while I prepare for winter break… right?" He then cried himself to sleep.
