Title: The Problems With Emotion

Couple: Sulley x Mike.

This story is a prompt from IchBinAufKurs. Enjoy, hopefully!

The problem with the way emotions work is that they always come at the wrong time. Like when you first experience a Summer Camp. All week you've told yourself that you were going to hate it and camp wasn't for you, until the last day when you finally start having fun, but the next day you have to leave. Or when you care about somebody horrible and selfish, and you only start disliking them after they have stabbed you in the back, and betrayed you. Sometimes it is the same with romantic feelings. In the back of your mind, their always there. Same with liking your Summer Camp, or hating the person who has hurt you, but only in some point in time do these emotions begin to surface, but sometimes, in is just to late. Camp has ended. They have already left you. The person has found someone else. No one said that it would be easy, but no one said that emotions can come and go this way, either. By the beginning of Camp the next year, you could hate the Camp again. You could begin to forgive the person who hurt you again, just to be smacked in the face. The romantic feelings you had for a person could have left you once the person has finally broken up with the other. Emotions take time. Emotions also take all the time they want. The love can be never ending. The hate could never leave. But it will not matter. Emotions take their own turn of events, even if you don't agree.

James P. Sullivan had experienced all these emotions. When he was very young, he could get homesick very easily. Everyone expected him to be the head scarer at the Camp, and the most impressive. Everyone expected more of Sulley than he could give. Little Jamie Sullivan couldn't handle the pressure. So he decided that he would resent the camp until the day he came home. But it didn't go according to plan. By the last day, James was having the time of his life. He had loved every second of it, and couldn't wait for more. But it was time to go home, and James knew it, no matter how much disappointment came of it.

Years later, James mother and father got a divorce. Sulley decided to side with his Mother, and his Dad never forgave him. No matter how much Sulley loved his father, he didn't care. He'd always find small reasons to kick James out of the house when he visited. He always threw him out the door and into the snow when James made a suggestion. His Father had always been the head Scarer, and Sulley, being just as scary, his father thought he would side with him. But James had always been closer with his Mother. She didn't pressure him as much. But his Father did. Sulley, no matter what, trusted his father. He would do anything to make him proud, but nothing did. Sulley had sided with his Mother, and in his fathers eyes, that was betrayal. James' father began to lie to him. Giving him reasons that weren't true as to why they could no longer see each other. He never came to anything that Sulley was doing, he never did anything to support his Son. It was years after the Divorce, and his fathers lies and abuse, that James finally put it together that his father was not a good person.

Sulley also only found out he had "Deeper Feelings" for someone, it was to late. Mike Wazowski was already dating Celia Mae. And now he had to deal with that. It didn't exactly happen like that, of course. Sulley and Mike were talking at their apartment, when Mike brought up he had a new girlfriend, and they had already gone on several dates. First, it angered Sulley, but he didn't know why. He should support Mike, shouldn't he? Mike was finally talking about something other than Scaring. He finally had a first girlfriend, something Mike had wished for ever since he realized he was attracted to girls. He had to ignore it when he was studying to become a Scarer. Now he had one. Wasn't it good for Mike? Yes it was. Maybe it just wasn't good for Sulley.

The next emotion to come was jealousy. Sulley always saw Mike and Celia in the hallways, laughing, and sometimes kissing. It made Sulley cringe, and wrinkle his nose. Sometimes, when they were out of ear shot, he'd even mimic Celia's voice. All the other Scarers knew something was up, but they were to scared to ask James about it. But for some unknown reason, Sulley hated watching Celia and Mike together. He hated listening to them talk about the future. He hated giving Mike advice when he and Celia went out on dates. He just hated it.

The emotion after that was realization. Sulley was crushing on Mike. Sulley hadn't seen it before, and he was scared to realize it might be even more than crushing. Sulley was jealous of watching Mike and Celia together, because he may have wanted to be the one in Celia's place. It was ridiculous, Sulley knew that, but he did have deeper feelings.

So now, he felt pain when he saw Celia and Mike together. Sulley hated it. He shouldn't like Mike! Mike of all people! Sure he was roommates with him. Friends can be roommates. And yeah, he may have been the one with the idea of moving in, getting a job as a Scarer while Mike his assistant with them spending every waking moment together and most likely the rest of their lives with each other, but that's just a normal "friend thing," isn't it? But the longer Celia and Mike's relationship went on, Sulley wasn't so sure.

More months past, and Celia and Mike were getting more serious. They did fight a lot, though. But Mike still talked to Sulley every morning about how Celia may just be the one.

"I'm happy for you" Sulley had answered with a laugh, than turned his head, ashamed that he was feeling pain about this. He knew he should be happy for him, but there was still one thing that Sulley knew he could never get over:

Sulley was in love. With Mike. His annoying roommate from College, and even more annoying roommate now. But it was real, and that was truly scary for him.

But in the long run, James knew he shouldn't do anything about it. If he really cared about Mike, and he did, he knew that he should just let Mike he happy. That's all he wanted in the long run anyway, wasn't it?

But as months went by, Mike and Celia began to fight. A lot. They went on dates less, they stayed over less, they talked less. Mike was sad, not happy. Sulley wanted Mike to be happy, but he wasn't.

So Sulley knew he had to give in if he wanted to get a break. He was going to do something he'd never forgive himself for if it failed. This is what could determine a happy future, or the end of a friendship that Sulley wasn't willing to give up. Every single part of Mike and Sulley's friendship would hang from a ledge. Either to be saved, or to plummet to its death. A death that would not only kill their whole relationship, but Sulley, too. But he had to do it. He knew he had to if he was ever going to break himself away from this never ending roller coaster of hidden and horrible emotion that he had to keep secret from everyone, including Mike who was the only person that Sulley wanted to tell.

So he kissed him one night, when Mike came home from work after a huge fight with Celia. He kissed him after hours of Mike ranting about if he should break it off or not. Sulley didn't know if it was going to work. What was going to happen to their friendship? Only this could determine.
