ہ٨ـہ٨ــ "You don't get it! I'd sooner kill than be away from you for even a minute– I swear you will never have to send me back to the hospital again, if you'd just stay!"

You adopted Nicola because nobody else wanted to. Because the little guy seemed to have some charm to him, and you figured that you could handle him. Because he had a horrible past, and you wanted to give him a new lease on life.

Of course you knew it was going to be difficult. From the day you adopted him, you knew he required a grocery list's worth of medications to function in day-to-day life. You already saw the way he hissed at pedestrians on the ride home, the way he yelled at you in both fear and disgust when you offered him a Happy Meal as a little treat. He'd likely be irritable, emotional, aggressive, anxious... But you didn't expect him to be attached to you to an obssesive extent.

Nicola couldn't even stand to be away from you for a shower, or a nap, or work, or much of anything really. He'd sob, become paranoid– he'd meltdown entirely. You could only imagine the severe reaction the cat boy had when you were nowhere to be seen in the middle of the night, in a time where he needed you most.
