A Cute Mistake: Part 2
No warnings just fluff
Tumblr media
The next morning you awoke and found Dracula gone as usual. As he slept you found you had ample amount of time to learn the spell you needed. You got up and stretched letting out a long yawn as you went. As you made your way to your office a sudden thought occured to you. How did Dracula get in his coffin? You took off in the opposite direction and went toward his bedroom hoping he wasn't a pile of ashes when you got there. You flung open the door and stepped inside, your eyes immediately darting to the coffin, which remained unopened. Oh no. Hurriedly you searched the castle hoping he had managed to hide himself away somewhere. Finally, you found him lying under your bed with his belly up looking content. You let out a sigh of relief. Gosh, he was so adorable right now. You thought, resisting the urge to touch his soft fluffy belly. Surely, he would kill you for that. Quietly you left the room, not wanting to stir him from his peaceful slumber even though you really wanted to.
Most of the day you spent immersed in your books and practicing the spell hoping that by the time Dracula woke up you could change him back. You hadn't even noticed the light slowly fading to darkness as the hours slipped by. It wasn't until you heard scratching at the door that you realized just how late it was. You put your wand down and opened the door to see Dracula on the other side.
"Have you learned the spell?" He asked stepping into the room, eager to return back to his normal self.
"Hello to you too." You mumbled, shutting the door behind you. "You'd be pleased to know that I have." 
"Good! Then let's get this over with." Dracula said, sounding a slightly relieved as he sat on the floor in front of you. You grabbed your wand and took a deep breath, preparing yourself. Slowly you flourished your wand in a circle around him while speaking a strange incantation as you did so. He quirked his head to the side and watched you. How attractive you looked when you were in your element. Once you finished the spell you gave your wand a quick flick. Smoke emerged from the tip of your wand and suddenly englufed you, obscuring your vision. How strange, you thought. You didn't remember there being this much smoke the last time. "Y/N?" You heard Dracula call out nervously.
"Yes, Im here." You responded. "Did it work?" You asked as the smoke slowly began to dissipate.
"I don't think so." He replied, once he caught sight of you.
"Crap!" You exclaimed as you came face to face with Dracula noticing that he still remained a cat. "Hey, what am I doing down here?" You asked, suddenly realizing that you were no longer looking down at Dracula but  eye level with him. "Oh no..." You gulped, running to the nearest mirror and to your horror a black cat stared back at you. "What have I done?!" You shrieked looking at yourself in the mirror, your mouth hung open in shock. You were hopeless...You thought despairingly to yourself.
Dracula felt bad and in an attempt to comfort you he rubbed his head against yours. "I'm sorry." He said softly.
"I'm the one that should be sorry. I'm such an awful witch. I can't even perform basic transfiguration spells..." You uttered.
"No you're not. I've seen you do plenty of great things. Everybody is allowed an off day every now and then." He assured you. You gave him a small appreciative smile and a kiss on his cheek. (Which in cat terms was with your tongue.) It was almost instinctive, like you had unintentionally adapted some cat characteristics.
"Oh sorry!" You apologized, pulling away realizing what you had done. Dracula blinked not knowing quite what to think about that. This was all very strange.
"Is there any other way you can change us back?" Dracula asked.
"Well, we could always wait till the spell wears off." You told him.
"How long does that take?" He groaned, dreading the answer.
"It's unpredictable. Sometimes a couple days sometimes a week." You answered.
Dracula sighed. "Well, at least it's not permanent." He added gratefully with a shrug.
"So what do cats do?" You asked trying to figure out what to do. He stared ahead blankly for a moment.
"I'm not sure. Eat and sleep mostly." He replied.
"Well I guess this as good time as ever to catch up on my reading." You sighed heading back towards your desk.
"I'll join you." Dracula said following you. He had read a little bit about witchcraft before, but there were some things he was still curious about.
You looked up at your desk feeling slightly intimidated by how high it suddenly was. "I can do this." You assured yourself as you bent your knees and wiggled your butt, preparing yourself to jump. Dracula chuckled watching you, noting how cute you were. Then you pounced and you almost made it too, but it wasn't quite far enough. You slid down digging your claws in trying to catch onto something, but unfortunately the only thing you managed to grab was some papers. "No, no, no!" You gasped as you slid the rest of the way down landing on the floor with a thump, covered in papers.
Dracula stood over you, his eyebrow cocked. "That was graceful." He remarked.
"Let's see you do it then." You scoffed as you got up and shook yourself off. Dracula nodded his head confidently and approached the side of the table. In one carefully coordinated leap he reached the top with ease. He turned around and grinned down at you triumphantly. "Piece of cake."
You groaned. "Show off." And readied yourself once more, this time you finally made it to the top.
Quietly, you and Dracula read some of your textbooks together. Trying to read with paws certainly made things interesting. For one thing it made it difficult to turn the pages. But turning the pages wouldn't be the only problem you would encounter, after all your week (or if you were lucky earlier) learning how to be a cat had just begun.
Thoughout the week several more random incidents occured. Eating became a bit of a chore. Without thumbs it became nearly impossible to raid the cabinets or icebox. After many failed attempts you just settled for whatever you could get your paws on which was mostly bread.
However there were many positives to being a cat. You quite liked how flexible and agile you were, being able to jump from one location to another, especially high places. As the days passed your new favorite activity was finding some place to hide and jumping out at Dracula trying to scare him. Most of the time it worked and when it did, he chased you around the castle till finally you surrendered.
As the week slowly drew to a close, you were actually kind of happy that this had happened. That you both were able to take a break and enjoy yourselves. Secretly, Dracula felt the same although he would never admit it.
As you two sat sharing a chair by the fire, dozing off you suddenly felt a little strange, like the entire world was spinning. You closed your eyes wishing it would stop and then when you finally felt better you slowly opened them again this time you found yourself sitting on Dracula's lap in your human form. "It's over." He sighed, holding you. You wrapped your arms around his neck and smiled, suddenly realizing how much you had missed seeing his handsome face.
"Now that wasn't so bad, was it?" You asked.
"Not from where I'm sitting." He said, leaning in and giving you a well over due kiss. How he missed kissing your soft lips. Kissing you as a cat was definitely not something he would miss, and for that matter neither would you. You loved him the way he was and you wouldn't change it for the world whether he was a vampire or a cat, you loved him all the same.

Dracula: A Comprehensive Summary
(Part 2)
Chapter 7:
The Whole Aquatic World is Going Mad and we’re gonna hear about it
Storms. Lots of storms.
The Demeter (a ship) in particular is having some issues
The crew is super uneasy and there seems to be a random Tall Man aboard that no one remembers.
Also people keep vanishing
Ooooooh spooky
They can’t find this man. Where is he? Why is he gone whenever they look for him? Egad
Captain thinks crew is being superstitious nincompoops.
First mate spots the Tall Man and stabs him but he dissolves into fog. This is highly irregular and even the captain is kinda weirded out at this point.
So some random nutcase is apparently stowing away on board and comes up yelling about the devil and the captain Isn’t Getting Paid Enough for This Shit.
Assumes the random nutcase is the cause of all this. False. It was actually the vampire. OH SHIT DRAC’S COMIN’ TO LONDON YOU GUYS
Also the captain dies :(
Chapter 8:
Girl’s Night Out. Lucy has been acting a bit peculiar. How passing strange
She’s begun sleepwalking and talking in her sleep about a guy with glowing red eyes. Weird.
But it’s probably nothing  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
She also appears to have been pricked by her pin, because she has two small puncture wounds on her neck! How quaint. Maybe they should call a doctor!
Mina gets good news. HER FIANCE IS OKAY! He lived! He totally didn’t get vampired! But he had a severe brain infection and is still on the brink of death. :( But anyway they’re gonna get married soon!
Renfield Escapes and goes to see his Master. Seward assumes he has randomly taken up religion. How cute.
Three guesses who his Master REALLY is...
Chapter 9:
In this chapter Mina goes to see Jon (who is completely Befuckened and a shell of his former self and tbh? Never recovers. He just spends the rest of the book as a nervous wreck and panics at All Things)
Her real name is Wilhelmina lol
Oh but they get married in the hospital how romantic
Lucy is sleeping too much. Her illness continues.
Renfield starts attacking the shit out of people. But not Seward. Seward is his bro :)
Seward does not like Renfield and does not think of him as his bro :(
He also no longer wants a cat. He has Bigger Things in mind!
He also keeps escaping partly cause Seward tests him by leaving the door unlocked, like a jerk but strangely enough, he becomes calm and docile at night, especially when he sees a particular bat...
Arthur decides to write to Seward about Lucy’s illness! Because we ALL know what a great doctor Seward is and how much care he shows towards his patients /s
Seward’s like “nah she’s fine just a little anemic”
lol
ANyway he calls in his old professor, Dr. Van Helsing. He’s a kindly old Dutch guy who knows WAY too much about vampires and has really sketchy medical theories. He decides to treat Lucy! Yay
And then OH NO Lucy’s condition suddenly gets worse.
Chapter 10:
Lucy’s blood keeps randomly draining and her teeth appear to be growing longer. Weird.
They do blood transfusions. Apparently using Arthur’s blood cause he’s the youngest and the most morally upstanding which is Not How Blood Transfusion Works but heck?  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I mean there’s a lot of religious Virtue vs Corruption themeing here so that’s why.
Lucy becomes more stable, is alert and can tell Seward that she’s been having weird nightmares.
He dismisses this
Lucy ends up getting her blood drained AGAIN and they gotta do another blood transfusion but Arthur’s not there so they take it from Seward.
The next day Lucy is better and Van Helsing gives her a Get Well Soon bouquet of garlic lmao
Chapter 11:
Lucy’s better. A wolf escapes from the zoo. All is well. Except for the wolf escaping from the zoo but you know  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The wolf’s name is “Berserker” lol
Seward is enjoying a peaceful afternoon tea when Renfield comes in and attempts to murder him with a knife
Just another day in the life of Seward
Anyway Renfield doesn’t want to kill him he just wants him to bleed so he can lick it because why not
Lucy is sleeping all nice and peaceful when she hears Berserker howling outside her window
And Suddenly It Is As If She Was Hypnotized.
Chapter 12:
Lucy gets drained AGAIN and they have to do a blood transfusion AGAIN (this is the last one don’t worry) and they use Quincy. Who was just. There for some reason
Geddit cause the three of them are linked By Blood now aahahaha
Also Lucy’s mom dies and they decide not to tell her. For her health!
She finds out anyway though and gets worse
And Jon’s dad dies
And it’s suspected Dracula is killing off their parents to try and isolate them which is quite Fucked Up of him really
But then
Lucy
Dies
And Van Helsing goes on about the perils of her immortal soul cause he’s Like That but he’s not a bad guy, really
