J is for…

This was most unexpected.

Tohru was dashing around in a frenzy, Shigure was laughing his ass off hysterically, and Hatsuharu was standing in the middle of it all staring curiously at the ceiling. The damn cat was no where to be seen.

"What is going on around here?" Yuki asked in bewilderment as he shucked off his shoes. He had been hoping to come home to a moderately quiet house with a hot meal on the table after walking home from his school meeting in the rain.

"That's really interesting," Haru muttered.

"What?" Yuki dumped his backpack to the ground, and strode towards Haru, skillfully sidestepping Shigure whose laughter had escalated into uproarious howls.

"I only thought this happened in cartoons," the cow murmured in fascination. His eyes remained glued to the ceiling. Yuki was about ready to forcefully shake Haru back and forth in frustration when Tohru zoomed past him with a…ladder?

"I'll save you Kyo-kun!" she cried. This caused Shigure to laugh even harder. What? Kyo? Yuki looked up at the ceiling and saw what had been causing such pandemonium.

Kyo, in cat form, was hanging upside down from the ceiling by his claws; orange hair bristled and his tail puffed up twice its normal size. It appeared his claws dug into the ceiling pretty deeply. "Wha-how did he get up there?" Yuki asked in a mix of scorn and disbelief.

"Tohru bumped into him a while ago but the rain made him so tired he couldn't change back. He just fell asleep here I guess, so when I talked to him from behind I startled him so badly he just…jumped in the air and ended up like that," Haru explained.

"You scared him that badly?" Yuki didn't know if he should be in disbelief or be mocking the petrified feline.

"Looks like. Who would have thought he was that jittery?"

Things only got worse when Tohru tried to get him down.

Turns out Kyo was stuck.

Jumpy


AN: This was way more frustrating then it should have been to post. 1. I am miserable right now with a cold that has knocked me flat on my ass and I really wanna sleep right now. 2. I was having a lot of issues with the stupid horizontal line. 3. I have discovered how difficult it is to type when your cat insists on trying to stand on the keyboard and won't leave you alone. But, here it is as promised. Inspired by how my cat jumps at the tiniest things (and sneaking up on him of course). Can't give you a date for the next chapter cause I don't have a prompt yet. Drop an idea if you want anything special for K! Til then, review!
