I sear I've never written a chapter so fast before haha, I half this chapter is written on impulse and is probably nonsense
And I don't know what to call a human cat person so i think i jumbled up some random terms inside sorry...
Warm surrounded him, it was so comfortable, never in his life felt something as soft and fluffy as the thing he was lying on right now, as he shifted his body on the soft material, he purred in content, bringing up his paws to rub at his eyes, dark eyes flew open and he gasped in shock, his body bolted upright as he stared at his hands, he had hands, human hands! Where were his paws?!
Luffy was trembling in disbelief, what in the world was going on?! Looking around the room, he was sitting on a huge bed alone and this house...More memories started to return to him, the last thing he remember was seeing Law walking towards him, he didn't see the human's face but here recognized the scent, all he could do was call out Law's name before he blacked out.
As threw off the covers, he realized his lower half was covered by a pair of shorts, probably Law's, bringing his legs to the side of the bed, he gingerly pushed himself up supporting himself with the nearby wall, his steps were shaky and unsure, he didn't know how he should do this but he just followed what felt right. As he passed a mirror, he froze, looking back at him was a half-dressed human teen, lightly tanned skin and dark eyes, on his chest was a cross shaped mark that looked exactly like the patch of white fur Luffy had on his chest as a cat and his hair was the same midnight black as his fur. He looked like a human, aside from the fact that he had a pair of cat ears sticking out from the side of his head and a long tail peeking from behind his back.
As Luffy tried to absorb his new appearance, the door on his left suddenly swung open, revealing Law who blinked at him in surprise, as tension cackled in the air as the cat stared at the human in horror, the spell broke however when the doctor took a step towards Luffy, the male freaked, he turned and tried to bolt away but he tripped over his own feet and fell flat onto the floor.
"Neko-ya are you okay?" Law asked as he rushed forward to help the other male up
Luffy flinched from Law's touched like he was burned and trashed weakly against the doctor's strong grip, he was ashamed, he wasn't a cat anymore, and he was scared of being thrown out.
"For the love of god, stop struggling neko-ya!" Law ordered, holding the smaller male against his body, "No one's going to hurt you or anything so just calm down!"
The cat's resistance slackened but it was still putting up a fight, Law did the first thing that came to his mind, threading his fingers through the black locks of hair, he started rubbing and scratching the fluffy ears, the effect was instantaneous, the struggling body grew limp and relaxed into Law's embrace, slowly Law maneuvered them to the bed, whilst murmuring comforting words to the human-cat hybrid.
Cat or human? What do you call something that's somewhere in between?
"You calmed down yet?" Law asked, unsatisfied with unintelligible mumbles from the male, he continued, "I can't hear you neko-ya, speak up would you?"
Lifting the teen up so he could look the other in the face, Law froze and fought the urge to inhale sharply, the male's dark eyes were red and watery, with wet streaks running down his cheeks, his cat ears were folded flat against his skull and he was trembling, his tail twitching nervously, brushing against Law's legs.
"Oi oi, what happened? Did I do something?" Law gently set the teen back onto the bed
"A-Are y-you going to t-throw me out?"
"What are you talking about neko-ya?" Law frowned,
"I'm n-not a cat anymore..." came the answer, causing Law to sigh
He's worried I'm going to throw him out because he's not a cat anymore? And here I thought I hurt him...
"I'm not going to throw you out," tear blurred eyes snapped up towards the human, blinking them clear in disbelief, "Besides, you're still pretty much a cat too me, with those ears and that tail of yours, I think
I'll keep you."A smirk lined Law's lips the teen gazed back at him in shock, relief was evident on his face
"Now do you have a name or do I have to keep calling you neko-ya?"
"Luffy..."
"Luffy-ya, interesting name, I'm pretty sure you know my name, since I heard it yesterday,"
"What happened to me yesterday?" Luffy asked
"That's what I'd like to know, one moment I have a black cat in my house, the next I have a hybrid lying on my living room floor, not to mentioned naked," Law replied
Luffy felt his cheeks heat up at the mention of his bare body, having skin instead of fur made him feel exposed, no wonder humans always wore clothes.
"I-I don't know either," Luffy stammered, trying to continue with the conversation while attempting to ignore the fact that he is only half covered and the handsome doctor was staring at him, "All I know was that I was thinking about how much I want to stay here and that I wanted Law to call my name and-"
Luffy froze as the words slip out, his hand slapped onto his mouth as he realized what he had just blurted out, even Law looked a bit surprised, his slate gray eyes widening at the words.
"I knew I was a popular guy, but who knew...I even had a cat fan," Law chuckled, bringing his hand to rub at Luffy's ears, whose face was burning red
Luffy embarrassment disappeared as he lean into the touch, his entire body tingled and he even started purring
"So cute...I'm definitely keeping you..." Law murmured
Luffy snapped out of his trance as his stomach growled loudly, the teen just realized he was ravenous, he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday!
"Hungry? Come on, I made breakfast, well technically its lunch since it's noon," Law took Luffy's hand and led him off the bed, but as he tried to stand and walk, his legs gave way, in a flash the doctor caught him before he fell flat on the floor again
"You haven't been in this form before so I'm guessing your legs aren't used to supporting your weight yet, hold onto me as support and we'll walk,"
Luffy nodded, he needed to learn how to walk properly in this form or he'll be useless, it was like being a kitten all over again, except he now walked on twos instead of fours and he wasn't supported by his mother, he got a hot doctor as his caretaker, or was it owner?
As they neared their destination, Luffy's nose picked up a delicious aroma, it was meaty and salty, after he was seated on the chair, Law placed a plated in front of him, it had egg and bacon on it, he remembered it from his kitten hood, he often saw humans eating it at a house he once stayed.
"Sorry I don't have any fish at the moment and I don't buy canned stuff," Law said as he handed Luffy a fork
"Fish? I hate fish," Luffy replied grinning, "I prefer meat!"
"Meat? What kind of cat hates fish?" Law raised an eyebrow at the words
"Me, oh and fish isn't meat! Fish is all slimy and wet, meat is better tasting," Luffy laughed, before he started to shove the food into his mouth, within minutes the teen had polished the whole plate whereas Law was only half way through his
"Can I get some more?" Luffy asked, looking hopefully at Law, "I'm still hungry..."
Thank god it's my day off...
"Just how much can you eat Luffy-ya?" Law sighed but a smiled played his lips, handing Luffy another plate, he set a mug of warm milk beside the white porcelain, "Don't eat too fast it might upset your stomach since you haven't ate anything yesterday and drink this, it should help you fill your stomach."
Law absentmindedly swallowed his own food as he observed the hybrid teen in front of him, Luffy devoured the new plate of food within minutes before grabbing the ear of the mug carefully, bringing it up to his nose, the teen sniffed the white substance cautiously before sticking out his tongue and lapped at it. The swaying tail went rigid before a shudder ran through the lean frame, it felt so nostalgic to drink it, it made Luffy feel all warm and fluffy on the inside, a relaxed sigh escaped his mouth as he set the mug back onto the table.
"At least that's one thing real cats like that you like, I was going to worry what sort of creature I got in my house if you didn't like milk,"
"Shishishi, I love this," Luffy chuckled, bringing the mug back to his mouth
As Law cleared the plates and mugs, Luffy wobbled towards the place where he passed out the previous night, the glass windows were covered with a thick curtain, gripping the fabric; he pulled the curtain open hopping to see the view outside, however a shaft of sunlight was he saw before the fabric was yanked back into place.
"Law?" Luffy asked, his face turning towards the doctor who stood behind him
"Don't open the curtains Luffy-ya, we wouldn't want to attract unwanted attention," Law replied, tugging the male away from the windows
"B-But...I want to look outside,"
"You aren't going anywhere until we can find a way to hide those ears and tail of yours, unless you can make them disappear?" the teen made a noise of protest but he shook his head, confirming that he is unable to make his ears and tail vanish at will.
"Does it mean that I can never go out anymore?" Luffy asked, his tail and ears drooping dejectedly
"We'll find a way...Eventually..." Law murmured pulling the teen closer so that Luffy's back was to his chest, his arms crossed around the exposed tanned chest.
Luffy relaxed against the doctor, enjoying the warmth radiating from the other body pressed against his back and the security those arms gave him, however he couldn't stop the blush that rose from his neck to his cheeks, staining them a soft rose pink. He didn't really understand what was going on, every time Law smiles or chuckles, his stomach would do flips, his face would heat up and his body would tingle.
"Law? I feel kinda funny..."
"What's wrong Luffy-ya? Are you unwell?" Law asked immediately, shifting their positions so that he could look at Luffy properly, his stormy eyes filled with worry
"I don't feel sick but it feels strange, every time Law hugs me or smiles, makes me feel tingly and all..."
Law stared at the teen rendered speechless; the hybrid looked so innocently clueless as he said those words, his tail twitched nervously and his face changed into a deeper shade of pink.
"Erm-W-Well, there's no cause for worry Luffy-ya, I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with you," Law coughed, his cheeks flushing slightly, he wasn't excepting such an answer from the hybrid cat, but damn if that didn't make his belly do somersaults
"Really"
"Yes, there's nothing to worry about," I think
The rest of the day passed with no mishaps, the pair just spent it watching TV and movies to get Luffy more comfortable with human behavior but Law kept a small distance from Luffy, he didn't want to do anything irrational that he will come to regret later, especially after Luffy's confession earlier.
Luffy however, didn't feel any better, if anything, he felt worse, the burning sensation creeping through his veins were getting worse as the day drew to an end, his body would heat up at random intervals and it made him feel feverish. He concealed it the best he could from Law, not wanting to burden the doctor with his problem, as his head hit the pillows on Law's bed, the hybrid was once again consume by darkness.
The next morning, Law woke to find Luffy panting and mewling beside him, his face red and burning, dark ebony eyes were wide open and clouded with something familiar but Law just couldn't put his finger on it ignoring it for the moment, he touched the teen's forehead and cursed, the cat hybrid was burning, if Luffy was human, Law could easily administer a simple dose of medication that could soothe the fever, but Luffy wasn't, at least not fully, he needed the help of a vet, advice at least.
"Luffy-ya I'm going out for a bit to grab some medicine for you, I'll be right back and don't try to move, just rest," Law murmured to the teen
Luffy wanted to sob as he heard the front door slam shut, he didn't feel sick, but his body was heating up, especially at the bottom of his stomach, throwing the covers of he stripped himself of the clothes Law had lend him the night before, sprawling on the bed, he let the cool air of the room caress his skin moaning in relief as it cooled his heated body slightly, but the relief didn't last for long, with his nose buried into the sheets, ever breath made him inhale in the intoxicating scent that was stained into the bed sheets from the long time use and apparently it didn't help his condition, it only made it worse.
Law breathed heavily, his lungs burning from running for almost fifteen minutes straight, he had finally made it to the Akagami Animal Clinic several blocks down his house, it was still closed but knowing the vet as a friend has its perks, the clinic was located just beside the doctor's house so Law headed there, after relentless banging on the door, it finally opened, to reveal a red haired man with three diagonal scars across his left eye, holding a steaming mug of coffee staring at Law in surprise.
"Trafalgar Law? What brings you here?"
"Shanks-ya, I need your advice on something, it's urgent,"
"O-Okay, what do you need to know?" Shanks asked, greatly puzzled, "Something to do with animals I suppose?"
It took the doctor three minutes to explain Luffy's symptoms to the vet, leaving out the fact that Luffy has a human form, pretending he was asking about a normal household pet.
"Hmm...high temperature...does it meow a lot or make weird noises or such?"
"Huh? Yeah, why? How is that connected to this?" Law replied confused
"Then you have nothing to worry about my friend," Shanks chuckled, sipping his coffee slowly, "That's just sighs that a cat's in heat."
...holy shit... You have got to be kidding…..
So what do you think, if you think it's rushed I know but I just couldn't resist （；￣д￣）
