Chapter 1: Misunderstanding

-This is not working anymore- said Mana to a totally confused Jojo.

-And that's your only explanation? That's why you're loosing feelings for me? That's a lie, Mana, you know I love you- said the gray and black who.

-Yes, I knew you loved me, but I guess that your love is not just mine

-What are you talking about? Mana, are you ok?

-Don't pretend it isn't true!

-Mana, please. Can you explain me what is going on inside your head?

Just then, Mana headed to the door and left, leaving Jojo hurt and annoyed.

Out in the corridor, Mana found Koa, Aaron, Pam, Vienna and Jonah listening to their conversation.

-What the hell are you doing? It's not your business! - yelled. They could hear him slamming the door and his car taking him somewhere.

-Mmm, guys, Vienna and I are staying. We'll go in a minute- said Pam as the rest went downstairs.

-We better go and bring Mana back- said Koa and Aaron nodded. Soon they also were gone.

The s entered to Jojo's room and saw him still stood up trying to assimilate the conversation. The s waited silently.

-What did I do this time? –asked Jojo suddenly.

-I'm not really sure Jojo, we are also as astounded as you- said Vienna.

-I just don't get it- he whispered and sat down in the bed and hiding his face in his hands.

-Whatever it is dear, won't last for long. Maybe he was just angry for something and you know how he is- tried Pam putting a hand on his shoulder.

-Yeah, he will come back soon and before you go to bed, you two will be together again- said Vienna smiling.

-Mmm, I don't know…- said Jojo hesitating.

Then Vienna and Pam kissed his cheeks, and stood up.

- Come on; don't be sad, he will come back! - said Pam in a slightly high-pitched voice.

-Besides, I'd like you to celebrate my revenge- said Vienna smirking.

-I will wait him here; you can close the door-, said Jojo still pessimist.

Then Vienna sent Pam a confident look, Pam nodded and then both pulled him from one arm to make him stand up. Then they gave him a big hug.

-Come on sweetie, you'll only get more pain staying all alone- said Pam.

-We are here to help all the pack; don't reject us, please! – begged Vienna.

With a sigh, Jojo let the hug and smiled softly at them.

-Yeah! We did it Pam! Come on, let's get down! - said Vienna and pulled Jojo downstairs as Pam followed them.

Once there Vienna jumped onto Jonah's arms and kissed him as the rest of the pack cheered at them and some gave them some applause. Jojo smiled softly and stayed at the beginning of the staircase looking down.

-Don't worry for him, Koa and Aaron will bring him safe- said Pam when she reached his position. –Oh Shamus! Have you been playing with Cyrus again? You will make him tired sweetie- continued as Cyrus went nearer with Shamus on his shoulders.

-Don't worry mom, I really like having fun with this little fur ball! - said Cyrus and started spinning and making the baby laugh.

-Now, now; enough for you Cyrus, it's my turn now- said Travis.

The pack continued taking turns to play with Shamus while others danced, some prepared the dinner, or talked. During all this time Jojo kept his thoughts and his look filled with worry, but seeing all that joy made him want to take part of it too.

-Look who has decided to play! - announced Mike when Jojo walked to the center of the now huge living room.

-Oh come on, leave him alone! –said Vienna hitting him playfully with a cushion.

-Ah! Jonah, dude! Keep your ! - He said escaping from another cushion while the rest laughed.

Shamus went nearer eagerly in his walker to where Jojo was, the baby was almost jumping up and down instead walking and had his little arms stretched to Jojo demanding his arms to lift him. This made him smile.

Just at the moment that Shamus reached Jojo's hands, the door got opened and then some things happened:

Koa entered the first and then Mana and finally Aaron; suddenly something attracted their attention, especially Aaron's, cause when finally Jojo held Shamus' hands, the little baby smiled at the gray and black who and said clear and proud: "Daddy!".

Mana sensed the entire good mood in the living room and without a word he went up to his room and Jojo caught this. And making more uncomfortable the scene, the song in the radio ended, filling the room with silence and the word as an echo.

Jojo looked for Pam around the room and asked her with a look to lift Shamus for him, but before she could do it, two green neon and black arms took the little baby.

-I've got him- said Aaron looking at Pam deep in her eyes. She knew that look so well, that one always made her blush completely, and before none noticed about the meaning of it she avoided the green eyes and smiled before going back to the kitchen.

-I…I have to go. Don't wait us for dinner- said Jojo and ran upstairs.

-Uh, is it my imagination or this is a bit weird? - said Cody.

Everybody looked at him.

-Better that we get going to the kitchen- said Koa and all of them headed returning to their conversations.

Upstairs, Jojo knocked the door of their room.

-Mana, please, if you just explained me everything, I would …

Then the door got open and an angry faced Mana stood at the other side.

-You would what? –Asked the spiked who.

-First I need you to explain me what is going on.

Then Mana flung the door.

-Wait, Mana! –exclaimed Jojo grabbing the knob centimeters before it was completely closed. –If you close the door you can be sure that I will wait outside all the night-.

Mana stood motionless and looking to anywhere on particular, as if thinking what was the best decision. Jojo, seeing his reaction, relaxed the grab, but as soon as this happened, the door got closed and locked.

-Damn it! - blurted Jojo and then sat down, supporting his back on the door. "You want it, you got it"

-It's a pity seeing those two angry at each other- commented Marcus.

-What could have happened? This morning they were perfectly and now…- said Travis eating his sausage.

-Why doesn't somebody go to check Jojo? - asked Vienna looking at the empty seat.

-Yes, it's a good idea- said Cyrus, who has his two arms and his ribs sane now.

-I'll go- said Justin. He stood up and walked up.

Koa opened his mouth to say something, but that something never came out.

-Hey J. Man- greeted Justin from the stairs as he walked to Jojo, who was still sitting on his bedroom door.

-Justin- said simply Jojo, almost as a moan.

-Why don't you come? This time some of the Mosleys along Koa made the dinner- smiled Justin, looking at the little and depressed who.

-I'm not hungry- shrugged and sent back the smile, but one hundred times sadder.

Then Justin sat down next to Jojo.

-Hey, there's no reason to feel so bad. Maybe Mana needs some time alone, when he is ready, then you'll be able to talk to him and things will go well again- said Justin happily and grinned, but this just made Jojo sigh. Seeing his unattractive reaction, Justin continued:

-He's a nice guy, you know? I remember when he was always angry at me… well, he stills being a bit angry at me, don't know really why, but in the bottom, he can't be that mood all the time. You also are good Jojo; you are a very nice person…

While Justin prolonged his chat, Mana, who had been the whole time laid on the bed, heard some voices. No, it wasn't Jojo, there was someone else. Was Jojo gone? No, he said he was going to wait.

"Oh I'm being pretty stupid, besides, Jojo has never lain me…Why would he do it now? Maybe I should tell him"

Then he remembered what Koa and Aaron told him just some minutes before when they got him back…

-So you mean that all this anger of you is because jealousy? –asked Koa kind of incredulous.

-Mana, I think that you should tell Jojo what you think about it- said Aaron in his old monotonous tone.

-But that's the fact! He should know what I'm talking about, if I told him, he will pretend he doesn't know anything about it- said Mana.

The three stayed quiet for a moment and then Koa talked:

-Mana, we all know Jojo, and we know what kind of person he is. Don't you think that if he had something for Justin, he would have said it to you? …

"Maybe Koa is right, maybe I'm just hurting him and my self. I better go and talk to him"

Outside the room, Jojo has just started crying.

-Oh, come on Jojo, you don't need to cry- said Justin.

-I just want to be with Mana, I can't understand…- but he couldn't finish. His sobs grew and he held his knees to his chest as trying not to brake in pieces. At this point, Justin knew that anything he could say, would make Jojo feel worse, so he did what he knew it would help a bit more:

Jojo was wrapped by the arms of the singer.

Jojo raised his head and looked at Justin, and suddenly the door got open.

A gasp, a thud, and a broken heart met there, in the same second, in the same breathing.

What could Mana think about it? What could Jojo feel? And was Justin's hugging really a help?

Jojo took off Justin and stood up, his sobs stopped, but not his tears. And as if it was the reflection of Jojo's eyes, Mana started shedding pain tears. Justin stood up and realized about the eye contact between the two whos.

-I…I'll better leave you a…

Punch

-Tell me something and tell me it now! - grunted Mana to a punched Justin, who was now also scared.

-Mana, it's not what you think- said Jojo finally understanding Mana's thoughts.

-Don't you have any other place to go? –continued Mana, ignoring Jojo's words.

-What is going on? Why did you do that! – asked Justin.

-Tell me!

-Mana, I don't know what you're talking about!

-Mana, please, listen to me! - pleaded Jojo.

-You better answer soon- said Mana making his fists and darkening his glare.

Jojo got wide eyed at this; he knew well this couldn't be good. He had to act fast.

Before the next hit could get onto Justin, Jojo ran over Mana and in the same time that Mana's fist sank in his ribs, his lips touched Mana's and kissed him even through the pain.

At first, Mana prolonged the kiss for some seconds, but when Jojo got off and bent down grabbing his ribs, Mana understood that his hit didn't arrive to Justin.

-Jojo! - exclaimed Justin wide eyed and covered in a cold sweat. After appreciating the scene he ran downstairs and went to where the pack was having dinner.

Instead, a shocked Mana hugged Jojo, not believing what he has just done.

-I'm… sorry- said Mana whispering.

-What made you think that? –asked Jojo. How he felt this time? He wasn't angry at Mana for hitting him, he wasn't angry at him for his simple sorry, in fact he wasn't angry, but he was hurt in many ways. Because if Mana got that mad could just mean that he didn't trust on Jojo's love, he didn't trust on him! And this was something simply so ridiculous! His grate wolf worrying and acting as a jerk, just because he couldn't accept the reality that the only one that Jojo loved the most… was him.

-I…I'm sorry- repeated Mana incapable to say anything more, because, what are you supposed to say to the person you love the most when you hurt him? Sorry was the only thing that could summarize his whole feelings right now.

-Please, don't EVER think it again- said Jojo serious and sad.

-Jojo! What happened, Mana? - said Vienna in a worried tone, seeing the tears in their eyes and Jojo being held tight by Mana. She was followed by Jonah, Marcus, Cyrus, Koa and Justin.

-I'm ok guys; we just need to solve our problems, right Mana? - said Jojo in a not much convincing tone.

Mana simply nodded and the two whos entered in their room.

-Well, let's go back to the kitchen, the show it's over- said Koa who waited for Justin to go down, but instead of that, the famous singer went to his room.

-Hey, where are you going? - asked Koa.

Justin sighed and answered: -After all this trouble I've thought… that probably the best is that I go back home.

-Wait, wait. It isn't necessary you leave; it was all a misunderstanding problem; or I guess…

-No Koa, I'm not blind. I know Mana has never liked me; he barely accepted me here and think it, this can happen one more time, and then Jojo won't be able to stop him from what ever he wants to do that time. I understand it now, I have to go back home, with or without parents.

-Justin, is this just for this problem?

Justin kept silence for a moment and finally said: -No, it's for the future problems that my existence in this house can make.

Then he turned and left to his room.
