"Baekhyun! You're going to make him sneeze!" Kyungsoo calls out. Baekhyun stops pawing at the ball of yarn in Chanyeol's hand to look at his owner, the bell on his collar ringing.

"It's fine, Soo." Chanyeol insist, dipping the ball down just bit so it touches Baekhyun's fingertips and it grabs his attention again. Baekhyun giggles happily and Chanyeol smiles. Kyungsoo sits down next to them and huffs, pulling at his hair.

"You alright?" Chanyeol asks, peering at his best friend, ignoring the whiny hybrid in his lap. Kyungsoo nods, a weak smile on his lips as he takes the remote and flips through channels. "You sound congested." Kyungsoo states and Chanyeol laughs before sneezes. "Gross!" Baekhyun yells, some of Chanyeol's snot landing on his fingers.

Baekhyun wipes it on Chanyeol's hood before he's sitting up and crawling over to Kyungsoo. Kyungsoo spreads his arms open so Baekhyun can climb into his lap comfortably. The older nuzzles his head into Kyungsoo's neck and purring once Kyungsoo starts scratching behind one of his ears.

Chanyeol smiles at them and his heart swells because he wants that too. "What would you say if I got a hybrid?" Chanyeol asks, Baekhyun perks up and Kyungsoo raises an eyebrow before looking back at the tv. "You're getting a hybrid?" Baekhyun inquiries. "Ooo~ Maybe you can bring them over and I can have play dates." Baekhyun looks at Kyungsoo hopefully and smiles.

"You're 23 years old, you're past the age where it's appropriate to have a play date." Kyungsoo states and Baekhyun pouts, ears flattening against his head. Kyungsoo snickers and turns to Chanyeol, "How are you going to get a hybrid if you're allergic to them?"

"There's a thing called allergy meds, Kyungsoo." Chanyeol responds.

"If he wants a hybrid, let him get one." Baekhyun states with a shrug and Kyungsoo glares at him. Baekhyun 'meow's softly and Kyungsoo visibly relaxes. "See," Chanyeol points at them, "I want that. I don't want to be alone anymore."

"And you think getting a hybrid will make you less lonely?" Kyungsoo asks.

"Yes." Chanyeol glances at his fingers and shrugs. "I don't know. No? I just- I don't want to be lonely and I think a hybrid would be cool to have." Chanyeol finishes.

"Hybrids are a lot of work, Chanyeol. They have heat cycles, they require a lot of attention and you have to make sure they have a place to sleep. Are you ready for that type of responsibility?" Kyungsoo looks at his best friend and the other shrugs. Typical Chanyeol.

"Do whatever you want then." Kyungsoo shrugs back and Chanyeol nods. He glances at the clock on the wall and deems it's time for him to leave. "I'm leaving now. I'll come visit whenever I'm free or not lazy." Chanyeol gets up and Baekhyun immediately gets up to hug him. Kyungsoo waves and Baekhyun screams, "Bye Bye Yeol!" as he walks out.

He's got a lot to think about.

♪♪

Chanyeol is standing outside the adoption center, his eyes fixated on one of the hybrids on display. The hybrid is looking at him with affectionate eyes but Chanyeol thinks he must do that all the time to get people to come in. It's working.

The hybrid has a nice jawline and looks around Chanyeol's age. His hair is a soft brown that covers his eyes a bit along with his fluffy ears that stand on his head. He has a pink bell collar on his neck that has the word "Sehun" printed on the fabric. The hybrid's tail flicks slowly and he mouths, "adopt me." Chanyeol gulps but reaches for the door handle of the shop anyways and walks in.

"Hello!" A middle aged woman practically yells at Chanyeol and he flinches slightly. "Hi." Chanyeol greets back slowly. The hybrid he was staring at is watching them from behind the half-glass wall he could easily climb over. There's a good handful of little hybrid cats gathered around the oldest and they all watch Chanyeol with big hopeful eyes.

"Are you interested in purchasing a hybrid today?" The lady asks, gesturing to the pin the hybrids are in. Chanyeol nods, "I don't know exactly what I want. But," he points at the oldest, "He looks the most appealing."

The lady's face visibly changes and Chanyeol frowns. "He's been returned a handful of times for being aggressive. But it's more of a aggressively affection kinda thing." She states as she looks at the hybrid, who looks unimpressed. "What's his name?" Chanyeol asks.

"Sehun. My name is Sehun." The hybrid -Sehun states. Chanyeol smiles, "Sehun." He echoes and the corner of Sehun's lips tug up. One of the smaller hybrids 'meow' at Sehun and he 'meow's back. Chanyeol thinks it's cute.

He walks up to the pin and Sehun stares at him. "What would you say if I want to adopt you?"

"I'd say get me the hell out of here." Sehun smiles and Chanyeol is absolutely sold.

He turns to the lady, "Where are the papers?" Chanyeol asks and the lady looks stunned. "I'll go get them." She states before she's running to back. Chanyeol turns back to Sehun and smiles, "Looks like I'm taking you home."

"Good." Sehun answers.

♪♪

Sehun's....nice. He's affectionate for sure and Chanyeol likes affection. Chanyeol sorta likes the way Sebun purrs loudly on the couch, perfectly content, as Chanyeol does his best to finish his homework. He might also like the way Sehun sometimes ditches the couch and slowly sneaks his way into Chanyeol's lap, purrs against his neck and dozes off. Sehun's very affectionate, there's not doubt about it.

The fur on his ears and tails shed everywhere though. It's on Chanyeol's couch, on his sweaters, on his bed- just everywhere. It's has Chanyeol taking excessive amounts of allergy meds. He feels so heavy medicated and worn by the end of his first week with Sehun, he considers returning him. It's isn't until Chanyeol's back home from an afternoon class, tired and drowsy, that he changes his mind. He'll say it's because he has a heart and doesn't want to do that the hybrid again, but it might have something to do with the way Sehun climbed into his bed after he laid down for a nap and nudged his way into Chanyeol's arms, promptly dozing off when the latter finally wrapped his arms around him.

Chanyeol thinks all is well until- "What's that smell?" Sehun asks. Chanyeol walks in, happy that he has leftover kimchi spaghetti Kyungsoo gave him when he visited. "What smell?" Chanyeol asks, opening the container of kimchi spaghetti and walking to the kitchen to grab two plates. Sehun follows suit and presses his nose into Chanyeol's shoulder. Chanyeol tenses, nearly dropping the plates, "What are you doing?" Chanyeol mumbles.

"You reek of another cat." Sehun whispers, presses his nose further into Chanyeol's shoulder, his chest flush against Chanyeol's back and Chanyeol sucks in a breath. "Why?" Sehun says, lightly knocks his head against Chanyeol's as he wraps his arms around Chanyeol's waist.

"Kyungsoo has a hybrid. He likes to sit in my lap when I'm over." Chanyeol states, slowly setting the plates down from the cabinet he got them from. Sehun growls softly, tail puffing up and his ears flatten. "But you're mine!" Sehun hisses. Chanyeol sighs, Baekhyun told him this would happen. "Why don't I take you to meet him tomorrow?" Chanyeol offers.

"But what if he tries to take you from me?" Sehun asks, letting go of his hold on Chanyeol and sliding between Chanyeol and the counter. Chanyeol hums half-heartedly and shrugs. Sehun growls, arms pulling Chanyeol closer to him and runs his nose down the column of Chanyeol's neck. "Take me to meet this stealer!" Sehun yells, even though it's barely audible because he's muffled by Chanyeol's sweater. Chanyeol hums again, places a hand behind one of Sehun's ears and scratches. Sehun instantly starts purring, even pushes his nose more into Chanyeol's neck.

-

"Mine." Sehun whispers later when they laying in Chanyeol's bed, getting ready to go to sleep. His nose rubs against Chanyeol's, his eyes are closed and his breath evens out before he's knocked out.

♪♪

"I need you to be on your best behavior." Chanyeol starts off.

They're standing in front of Kyungsoo's door. Sehun sighs, his tail flicking lazily behind him. Chanyeol squints. "Are you even listening?"

"Sure." Sehun shrugs. "Look, I just want to get this over with." Sehun states bluntly and walks towards the door. He knocks and Chanyeol shoots a glare at Sehun. The hybrid simply ignores him and wraps his tail around Chanyeol's waist.

"Hey Chanyeol." Kyungsoo greets as he opens the door. He glances at Sehun, "Is this Sehun?" He asks and Chanyeol nods. "He's a lot taller than I imagined." Kyungsoo states and Sehun scoffs. "I heard you have a hybrid." Sehun whispers. Kyungsoo nods, "You can come meet him. He's probably in the living room." Sehun pushes past Kyungsoo and bolts for the living room.

Kyungsoo shakes his head and pats Chanyeol's shoulder. "He's possessive. Baekhyun was right." Chanyeol groans. "Let's just follow him before it gets ugly." Chanyeol huffs, toeing off his shoes and making way to the living room.

"Baekhyun?" Sehun voice echoes through the hall as Chanyeol and Kyungsoo turns the corner. "Sehun!" Baekhyun yells and they see him pounce on the other. Sehun makes a noise of detest before he's rubbing his head under Baekhyun chin and the older happily scratches behind his ear. "I haven't seen you since the one girl adopted you! How'd you end up with Chanyeol?" Baekhyun asks, pulling Sehun with him to sit on the couch. Chanyeol and Kyungsoo stand utterly confused about situation.

"She returned me. She said I was 'too much work'." Baekhyun hums, "You are. I'm surprised Chanyeol hasn't returns you like everyone else. I, for sure, thought that lady was going to keep you." Sehun shrugs. "It is what it is." He simply states and Chanyeol pouts. Had Sehun been rejected that any times?

Kyungsoo sighs, startling Chanyeol, and walks to sit next to Baekhyun. Baekhyun doesn't even look at Kyungsoo before he's leaning on his side, Sehun draped on his lap as he talks about how life was at the shop while Sehun was gone. "They were so close to just releasing me! But Kyungsoo showed up one day and adopted me." Baekhyun smiles, the apples of his cheeks are rosy and his eyes crinkle as he goes on and on about Kyungsoo.

Chanyeol finds himself making his way towards the sofa, choosing to sit right at Sehun's feet. Sehun glances at him before his putting his legs in Chanyeol's lap and semi-pulls him closer. Sehun meows softly at Baekhyun, sits up and places his head in Chanyeol's lap and his legs in Baekhyun's before Baekhyun continues.

Sehun looks into Chanyeol's eyes and smiles. He purrs against Chanyeol's thighs and noses into Chanyeol's stomach, affectionately. He lets out a muffled meow and Chanyeol brings his hand up to run his fingers through Sehun's hair. The other leans into his touch, not playing much attention to Baekhyun's rambling anymore, and kisses Chanyeol's palm when it gets close to his mouth.

Maybe adopting Sehun wasn't a bad idea.

♪♪

The car ride home is quiet, aside from the obvious purring coming from a sleeping Sehun. Chanyeol glances at him, chuckling softly at the way he's dozed off, leaning more towards Chanyeol. Kyungsoo's words ring through his head and he looks back at the road.

"You'll get attached eventually." Kyungsoo states, the hybrids are asleep and Chanyeol is sitting across from Kyungsoo, a mug of coffee in his hand. Chanyeol sighs, brings his hand up and rubs his face. "What if I'm already attached?" Chanyeol asks, looking at how Sehun curls into Baekhyun's chest.

"I would say that's fine because you haven't allowed anyone to get attached to you or vice versa since I got Baekhyun." Kyungsoo whispers, taking a sip of his coffee. "I know. But it's different." Chanyeol huffs, Kyungsoo raises his eyebrows and Chanyeol shakes his hand. "I mean it's similar because you love Baekhyun and you both are intimate but I don't know if I want to let myself be intimate with Sehun." Kyungsoo nods, waves his hand for Chanyeol to continue. "I want to kiss him and hold his hand and other things..." Chanyeol trails off, making Kyungsoo scoff. "But I'm scared. Things are going to change a lot if I cross the line." Chanyeol taps on his mug, "I don't know if I'm ready for that."

"You'll know when you're ready but don't be afraid to cross the line. He likes you. I'm sure he'd be fine with it." Kyungsoo pats Chanyeol's hand and gestures for him to finish his coffee.

"Wait for me." Chanyeol whispers to Sehun when he stop at a red light and brushes the hair falling into Sehun's eyes. He can only hope Sehun will be willing.
