Chapter 3
I followed the arrogant stranger into my home, picking Reese up at the door. I sneered at my cat.
"Watch me fight the urge to slap this guy, Reese..."
"Meow..?"
Still cradling him in my arms, I followed the weirdo into my kitchen, as he sat on a stool at the booth. He turned his sharp eyes to me and glared. "Well? Hurry it up."
I set my jaw. "Listen, buster, I don't know WHO you think you are or WHERE you came from, but you can't just barge into my house and order me around!"
He looked at me boredly, tilting his head. "Humans are very touchy..."
I growled. "Who the heck are you!"
He sat up straight and stared me straight on with a blank face. "Epsilon Carinae."
I blinked. "I'm sorry...?"
"Epsilon Carinae. A double star located roughly 560-660 light-years (170-200 parsecs) away from the Earth. Located in the southern region of the constellation 'Carina'."
My eyes grew wide. "Wait... You mean, you're...?"
This man... He was... A star...?
"You're a star...?"
Impossible...! Everything about this was completely illogical! Now I knew I MUST be dreaming...!
"Yes. At least, I was."
I looked at him in confusion, my eyebrows drawing together. "What do you mean...?" I came closer to him, clutching Reese in my arms.
He propped his elbow up on the table and rested his head in his hand. "Someone pushed me out of the sky."
"Pushed you...?"
"Yes. I'm the prince-to-be of my constellation, so I'm nearly positive someone has sabotaged me."
"Sabotaged...?" I put a hand to my face. "I had no idea things worked that way in space..."
"Of course not, you're just a human."
I pouted my lips. "Right..."
He ran his fingers through his dazzling silver hair. "I'll need to get back in the sky... And soon."
"Back in the sky...?"
He nodded.
This was unbelievable... Some arrogant star just fell out of the sky and into my yard... What was I to do?!
