"So you really think beating him to death is going to solve something. Listen Little Brother, just because Matt showed up around her doesn't mean anything is going on. Hell, if anything it proves the point that she didn't know what was going on." Taker took a sip of his beer. "Being a jealous man ruins the entire thing you and her have going on. I mean it looks up now from what it was before."

". . .I'm not jealous." Kane rolled his eyes. "I just don't want anyone around her but me."

"So you're obsessed. You scare her away and it's going to be on you. She told you nothing was going on. You should be more worried about getting a damn championship across your shoulders. She's fine."

"What if something is going on?" Kane suddenly snapped. "Then, it will be too late for me to do anything about it. If their. . .fucking behind my back, I'm going to kill them both." Kane saw his brother's eyebrows rise. Taker knew wasn't bluffing, but he'd rather not see his brother in jail. "You know, she made me agree to let her get on birth control because she wasn't ready for kids. But if that was just a trick, I'm going to. . ."

"Damn it, Kane." Taker slammed his beer down harshly. "If you care about her, then why don't you let the past be in the past. She probably isn't ready for kids just yet. You two literally just got over the miscarriage a few months ago. There is more to a relationship than having kids. Ellie's on birth control and you think I care? It's her body, she has to have the damn kid, not me. I one-hundred percent understand why Lita would take precautions." Taker could see Kane lower his head in somewhat of an embarrassing expression on his face. Taker didn't even think his brother understood what the word "love" was. But who knows what really went on in his head.

"She's still going to be your wife at the end of things. So what are you going to do to her? Are you going to hurt her, make her feel bad about herself because there's plenty of the things you can do besides that? The answer that I feel like is most suited for this situation is to just talk to your damn wife. She's happy, you're happy, why fuck that up?" Taker deeply drunk the watered down beer. Ellie made him switch beers to stay in shape.

Taker deciding to check for a message from his wife. She and Lita were out doing whatever they wanted for the day. Ellie thought it was so important for Taker and Kane to get to know each other more, while she and Lita got to know each other as well. She called it "bonding time." Kane didn't seem to mind being around his brother these days.

In the beginning, when he had just begun wrestling, it took some time to get him to say a word to him. But like the saying goes, blood is thicker than water.

Lita was enjoying the time she got to be out and about. She was honestly surprised when Kane gave her a hug and told her to enjoy the day. He was always around her no matter what it was, the man ever watched her until she fell asleep. Even though they were married, he was still so cautious with her. She'd thought she proved herself to him

Ellie and Lita were sitting at one of the colorful tables in the ice cream shop. It was definitely hot out today, more than other days. They couldn't really remember the last time they had gotten to eat ice cream with sprinkles. Lita watched Ellie push he sprinkles away from the vanilla ice cream.

"You know, sprinkles are just for decoration. They don't really have any flavor to me."

Lita nodded her head, almost dropping her chocolate ice cream trying to speak. "I agree with you. I told you to get chocolate instead. It gives your taste buds a good kick."

"But vanilla is the best of the best! I am standing my ground!" Ellie dramatically said, causing kids to snicker in the shop.

"Where do you what to head to after this?" Lisa asked.

"Since we are in the mall, I was thinking about looking around for some new clothes. Maybe even by my hubby something new. What do you think about that? You could buy Kane something too."

"Umm... I've actually never bought Kane anything before."

"What? You've never bought your husband anything. Is something going on with you two, you seemed happy around us."

"No, no. We're doing fine. It's just that I've never really been out by myself without him since we've gotten married. He's always around so it's hard to surprise him with stuff." Lita licked the sweet chocolate off her lips. "I wouldn't be surprised if he was somewhere in the mall right now watching me."

"Awe, he's not that bad. He's just protective about you. If he was really that bad, you wouldn't be with me alone right now."

"You've got a point..."Lita admitted. "What do you think I should get him? What does he like?"

"Well, I know what Taker likes and Kane is almost the exact opposite of him so... I have no fucking idea, sorry." Ellie giggled at the false hope she gave Lita as a joke. "It can't be that hard. I'm sure you're see him look at things when you two go out. Well just look around for somethings that you think he would like."

"Yeah. Okay." Lita modded. She at least knew what size he wore from washing his clothes from time to time.

—-Kane horsed his motorcycle behind his brother's, laughing when he heard his brother curse in the wind. They had ridden their bikes around until they were nearly on empty after becoming bored of sitting around the house waiting for their wives to return.

Kane hadn't remembered the last time he enjoyed riding with his brother. Taker was the one that helped him get his license after being told he wasn't mentally sound the be able to drive. Then, as a gift, he bought him one of the most expense motorcycles he could find just for his only brother. It made him feel important for once.

Kane found himself wondering about what Lita was up to. The sun had already set and they hadn't gotten back yet. It made him worry even thought Taker kept telling him they would be fine. They made their way back around to where the condo was and saw that Lita and Ellie were back finally. Taker flew in front his brother with a grin, seeing he was caught off guard. Both made it into the driveway and parked their bikes in the front. Kane pulled off his helmet, following behind his big brother.

"I hope you ladies brought us some grub. We've been "bonding" all day." Taker said as Kane and he headed into the house. Kane noticed all the bags that they came back with. He didn't mind how much his wife spent as long as it wasn't something she would never wear. Taker found Ellie and gave her a hug while Kane headed into his room to find Lita placing clothes on the bed. Kane watched her and could see that she was thinking hard. She didn't even notice that he had come in. Kane placed his helmet on the dresser, getting her attention.

"Hey baby. How was today?" Lita asked." Ellie and I enjoyed hanging out at the mall today."

"I can see that." Kane pulled his hair out of the messy low tail. He looked at his wife suspiciously. She was up to something. "What did you get today?" Kane curiously asked, referring to the many bags she had yet the unpack.

"I got myself a few things. But, I mostly bought some things for you." Lira admitted.

"For me?" Kane was making sure he heard her correctly. "You bought something for me?" He unconsciously pointed to himself.

"Actually a lot for you. You kinda wear the same thing everyday so I thought I would bring you something you might want to wear. I hope it's the right size." Lots grabbed her husbands hand and pulled him towards the bed to the clothes she'd laid out. Kane couldn't help but look down at his clothes. What was wrong with his black tees and blue jeans? It mattered more what she wore than him. He found it somewhat funny that Lita was trying to up his fashion when he never care to begin with.

"What's so funny?" Lita could see him holding back a grin. "I can see that." She pointed to his lips still tugging.

"You." Kane simply stated. He expected her to say more but she began pulling the clothes up for him to see for himself. Kane shrugged at the shirt in front of him. It was something he could get used to he decided. He watched his wife open another bag that was full of pants, then three pair of boots she'd picked out for him. It surprised him that's he paid attention to his size in everything.

"Go try something on so I can see." Kane shook his head. "Come on please. I want to see how you look in them."

"Okay fine. But if I rip it we can't take it back, you know?"

"You won't. I think I know your size by now, Kane." Lita tried to push him towards the bathroom. He didn't budge but it made him laugh. Kane headed into the bathroom eventually after seeing his wife becoming more frustrated that ever at him. He tried on the shirts, jeans, and boots she got him one by one, deciding if he liked them. She looked so proud of herself once he was done and everything really did fit him.

Lita was putting the clothes back up when Kane wrapped his arms around her from behind. He really didn't think about how much stronger he was than her. He kissed her head gently.

"What's wrong?" Lita asked hm.

"I didn't know you thought about me so much." Kane admitted. It was true. He always figured he wouldn't be good enough for her.

"Why wouldn't I think about you?"

"Because you use to be too busy thinking about Matt instead."

Lita snapped around. She was irritated with him but also worried that he was mad. He was always unpredictable when he got angry. Lita saw that he was as calm as he could be though, which confused her even more.

"I'm not angry Lita. I believe you didn't know he would be there."

"I didn't I pro—" Lita was hushed by one of Kane's huge fingers. She was always quick to rush to defense about everything when it came to explaining things to him.

"I spoke with my brother about it." Kane admitted. "He thought I was being defensive for nothing." Lita couldn't imagine Kane and Taker having a brother to brother moment if she tried. Or at least Kane actually sitting there listening. "I thought it was bullshit though. This shit with Matt had better be over and I BETTER NOT be fooled, Wife." Kane grabbed her face with a rough grasp, then placed a kiss on his wife's lips. "Besides, I want to have a good relationship. Something different."

Lita was shocked that he was talking from his heart. Even if it was only a little.

"I don't have a reason to lie to you, Kane."

"You better not." Kane somewhat gave her a daring glare. It made her shiver. Did he have something going on in his head?

It was late at night, the cars passing by along the busy highways that got everyone where they were intended to go. Kane made his way out of the shadows, startling a couple coming back from a night out. He made his way past door after door until he came to the one he was looking for. Kane pulled a hair pin from his hair that Lita used to help keep it up for him. He silently wiggled the key into the lock until he heard a click and the door allowing him access. He could see what he was looking for, Matt. Kane grinned as he closed the door and locked it behind him.

Some people just never learned.
