Hearing that sound come from Kuroo was probably something Kenma should have expected but he still gave a startled expression, his eyes slightly wide. It was an afterthought that touching Kuroo's tail was possibly the most intimate thing he'd ever done to the other, considering where it was attached, but there was no actual denying the soft and fluffy fur. He wouldn't feel weird about touching a cat's tail...or stomach, or anywhere. There wasn't much point to overthinking this. He hoped.
He swallowed as he watched those ears move, and he couldn't actually remember a time when he'd actually wanted to touch Kuroo so badly. His fingers itched for more, but he settled on gently combing his fingers through the dark fur already in his hands, thinking of his options, and what this all meant. "I'm skipping." He suddenly announced. How could he go to class when Kuroo was stuck like this? The fact that he wanted to see more of it was a big part, too.
Still, he knew that had to be something, for Kuroo to skip out like that. He definitely didn't miss school or anything unless he had to. That meant he was feeling pretty bad about it.
"You look cute." Well, that probably wasn't what Kuroo was expecting, considering his tone, but really, Kenma wasn't about to start teasing him for it. Not when he was a cat. Kenma liked cats. So, he just offered a little smile, somewhat belatedly thinking to let go of his tail as he took a small step forward. "It's cute." He wasn't sure where he was trying to go with that.
Still, he lifted a hand, then paused. "Can I touch them?" He didn't want to make Kuroo too uncomfortable. He couldn't help but want to, though. "If it feels weird I'll stop."
