Hey y'all! I'm back with the letter J! Ok, before we begin, I would just like to apologize to y'all for the wait not only on this fic, but the others as well (new and old). I know I keep on saying this and it's getting repetitive, but all is not so well over on my end. I'm sure most of you have been through the moving process before, it's not very fun. Good news is, we've already won half the battle! We finally accepted an offer and are currently looking for a place to rent instead of buying. That whole fiasco is because of a personal reason, but we're finally setting sail for a new joint! AH! I'm so happy! Alright, let's get to those reviews!
Guest- Aw! You're so very welcome, Sweetie! I'm glad you're enjoying this fic! Aw, don't make me cry now ;) you're too sweet. Thank you ;) the blessings have gotten us through.
Ecto-1- Yup, you're right. But, even if Karr DIDN'T want to stay, I would've guilt tripped him into staying anyway. I'm just torturous like that, lol XP Aww, thanks Bestie! The encouragement has been a great help! Yeah...no kiddin'. Aw naw, really? I'm not that good. Trust me, there are tons of other people that are 100 times better than me. But I appreciate the compliment, nonetheless :)
YeahScience- Oh, what can I say? I like to spoil people. It's just in my nature, lol. Btw, I'm working on the next chapter for the collab. I'll try to get it out to you by the end of the week (hopefully).
Ok, my lovlies! Before we begin, I would like to thank my Bestie for giving me this idea, as well as an entire list of plots for the rest of the fic! Aw you're such a doll! I appreciate it a ton, as I've already told you. Lol XD
Ok, as I've said before: ANY and ALL flames will be fed to my two loyal werewolves. With or without Michael's permission!
J is for...Jealousy Is Not The Best Policy
It was a nice sunny, fall afternoon. The leaves were all different colors. Air was nice and cool, just the right temp. A soft breeze flew by, carrying various colored leaves with it as they danced in the sky. However, the sudden burst of activity brought one individual out of his musings and back to reality with a slight jump.
Karr paused mid step on the vacant pathway, trying to calm his ecstatic heart beat. He was surprised at how deep a musing he was. Usually he doesn't get that deep in thought out here alone. But, he guessed today was different. Of course, he wouldn't be in such deep thought, if a certain someone would quite being so friendly with another certain person!
The eldest werewolf sighed as he continued to walk on. Lately, Kitt and Michael have been acting like they haven't seen each other in over 20 years. Wherever the taller man was, his little brother was sure to be right there. A few times he would over hear their conversations, but he didn't stick around long to get the gist of it. The sudden burst of friendship kinda...annoyed the eldest. He didn't understand it, nor the reason behind it.
And the fact that any act of possible bonding time between the brothers, was met with some kind of excuse from the youngest, didn't help the matter. Karr growled lowly to himself. At first, Karr understood the sudden distance because they've been busy with missions. Luckily, all of them were very simple things, and were all solved by the end of the week. But when things finally calmed down to normal around the Estates, Kitt and Michael were still inseparable.
"What the hell could you possibly be doing with him? What makes him so special all the sudden!" Karr muttered lowly, walking aimlessly as he allowed his mind to wonder on the matter.
Karr groaned. He was annoyed. He was irritated. And he was extremely jealous on the matter. None of this made sense to him. What were they doing? What could possibly be so entertaining about Michael, that Kitt didn't want to leave? What made Michael better than Karr?
Oooh. That last thought hit a nerve. When the partners first began this...thing, Karr wasn't really bothered by it. How could he? Michael and Kitt were there before he was. It was understandable. But...it began to drag out. And with it...Karr's concern over the matter. He slowly began to feel hurt whenever he was turned down a chance to hang with his little bro.
He tried to calm himself down. Now was not the time to fathom over crap like this. After all, it was getting late. He needed to start heading back to the Estate. Not that he was far anyway, but he knew the others would still worry about him. With a sigh, he began his trek back.
/*/
Upon his arrival, he was met with the ever seemingly present, annoying scene of Michael and Kitt. Both glued to each other's sides, laughing their hearts out. The setting sun glinting off the glass table the partners were sitting at. Karr couldn't help but snarl at the scene. If Kitt was trying to push his buttons, he was doing a damn good job of it.
Somehow, in the midst of their laughing fit, Michael noticed Karr out of the corner of his eye. "Oh, hey Karr! How's it going?" Michael said joyfully, trying to bite back another burst of laughter. Kitt struggling to do the same as he turned around in his chair to look at his brother.
Karr only narrowed his eyes. "Fine." He practically spat. Kitt suddenly turned serious, his brow furrowing together.
"You ok, Karr?" He asked concerned.
"Yeah. Why would you think anything's wrong?"
Michael and Kitt shared a look. "Well...you just sound a little...uptight. You sure everything's alright?"
Karr rolled his eyes. "Oh yeah. Just great." He muttered dryly as he walked away to go inside. The partners shared another look.
"What was that about?" Michael then asked when Karr's seething form disappeared inside the mansion.
Kitt shook his head slowly, his eyes also averted to the door Karr just walked through. "I don't have a clue." He turned his attention back to Michael. "You don't think it's because he found out, do you?" The youngest now asked.
"I...don't think so. I tried not to be too obvious about it."
Kitt nodded his head. "Maybe it's time."
Michael agreed with a nod of his own. "I think you're right, buddy."

Kitt hesitantly walked up the stairs. It was now dark outside, the light of the full moon shining brightly down through the large window above the front door. In the youngest werewolf's hand, was a little box. It was white with a red bow neatly tied around it. He glanced down at the box as he approached his big brother's door.
I hope you do the trick. It was awfully difficult to find you. Kitt thought worriedly to himself as he gently knocked on the door. He heard a muffled "hang on" before the door finally opened a few moments later. Karr's hair was damp still, indicating he probably got out of the shower a little while ago.
"Hey, uh, mind if I come in? I've got somethin' for ya." Kitt said, playfully waving the little box in his hand in front of Karr's face. The eldest looked down at it briefly before turning his attention back to Kitt. His face still cold with jealousy. But he allowed him to come in anyway.
Kitt gestured for his brother to take a seat as he gave the little white box to Karr. Curiosity soon began to claim Karr's face as questions of what it could be started to loom in his mind. Gently, he started to untie the bow. Once the fancy thread was undone, Karr then opened the box. A soft intake of air was heard as Karr picked up the shiny golden locket. Moisture collecting in his eyes when he opened the locket and stared at the photo of the two of them together.
Kitt smiled to himself at Karr's reaction. Bingo. "Happy Birthday Karr."
Karr only looked up at his little brother. "Is that why you two have been together so much?" He asked. Kitt nodded.
"Yup. I figured me and Michael could go and grab it so you wouldn't get suspicious of anything."
Karr got up from his seat and hugged his little brother. "Thank you, Kitt. I love it."
Kitt hugged him back. "You're welcome. Only the finest for my big brother."
Karr could only chuckle as he held him tighter. Same here, little brother. Always.
Awww! Happy Birthday Karr! And many more!
Until We Meet Again! *eats some cake* Mmmm...this is soooo gooood...
