Hey, guys. I m surprised I didn't do this first, because I love animals! Well, let me elaborate. Carlos finds a kitten and tries to hide it, but James finds it ;)

Carlos and James were holding hands as they walked down the street. They heard a meow and Carlos stopped. James almost fell over from the suddenness of it. Carlos looked in the alley next to him and an emaciated kitten stood there. Oh no. James thought. He's not just going to walk away and forget about it. If he knew anything about his boyfriend, it's that he couldn't resist animals. He slowly let go of James hand and went to pet it. The kitten started purring almost instantly.

James had to admit, it was a pretty cute kitten. It had bright green eyes that faded to yellow near the pupil and it was a tuxedo color pattern with the cutest little triangle of white on his nose. It was Carlos dream kitten. He had one just like it back in Minnesota. The problem with that cat, was one of the neighborhood kids accidentally killed it with a rock. James had never seen Carlos so pissed off. He almost ran that kid into the ground. He cried nonstop for two whole days after that.

Carlos looked back at James with tears in his eyes. "Jamie..." Damn it. James thought. Carlos was holding the little kitten and it wasn't even attempting to escape. It just purred loudly and stared at James. Great. Double puppy dog eyes, and ones from a cat!

He sighed. "Carlos, you know Mama Knight isn't gonna let us keep him."

"But I have to. It's so sad." He shook his head and Carlos turned back to the kitten. "I'm sorry little guy, but mean Jamie won't let me keep you." He set the kitten down and James figured it ran off, because he didn't see it when Carlos stood up. Carlos let a tear roll down his cheek as he followed James.

"Look, when we get home, I'll talk to Mama Knight and if it's still here, we can come back for him." Carlos nodded and twitched. James raised an eyebrow. Carlos never twitched. But sure enough, Carlos twitched randomly the whole walk home.

When they got home, Mama Knight was in the kitchen. She looked up from the stove. "You boys have fun?"

James rubbed the back of his neck and looked at Carlos. He sniffed and stormed off down the hall to their room. James looked at Mama Knight. "Ah... Carlos found a stray kitten and he wanted to take it home, but I said we'd have to ask you first. Well, now he's mad at me."

She smiled at James reassuringly. "Don't worry. I'm sure he'll get over it."

James sighed and sat down in one of the chairs. "Yeah, eventually. You know how much he loves animals and to make it worse, it looked like Cat." Cat was the name of Carlos' kitten. He got him when he three and whenever he saw it he yelled "Cat!" So the name just stuck.

"Just try to make up with him. I m sure he'd understand. Just give him that smile. You know he melts when you smile at him." James blushed a little.

He stood up and smiled. "Thanks, Mama Knight. I hope you're right."

He walked down the hall and heard her say, "Just make sure it doesn't lead to- other things." Kendall and Logan, who were sitting in the living room, began laughing as James stopped and blushed. She rolled her eyes. "At least James and Carlos are quieter." They stopped laughing immeadiately and tried to sink into the couch as they blushed. She smiled and James continued walking down the hall.

He knocked on their door. "Carlos? Can I talk to you?"

"Uh- yeah, Just a second." He heard Carlos move around and say, "Come in."

James walked in and Carlos was sitting on the edge of their bed playing his gameboy. He had plenty of other video game consoles, but he chose his gameboy when he was annoyed or sad, because he didn't need a TV screen to play it. So, he could just stay in the room and play it. He sat down next to Carlos and looked at the screen. It was a Zelda game. It was Carlos favorite game series, because he could never get tired of it.

James put his arm around Carlos shoulder and leaned his head on his video game nerd. "I'm sorry I couldn't get you that cat. I know why you wanted him so badly. He looked like Cat."

Carlos paused the game and turned his head. "It's okay. I know Mr. Bitters would never allow it." He kissed Carlos quickly on the lips. "Are you sure you're not mad?" He nodded and kissed James. James moved his hands down Carlos back. He felt a small lump squirm and Carlos winced when it did. James opened his eyes and released Carlos. "What is that?"

He smiled shyly and the kitten's head popped out of the neck hole. It looked at James and meowed before jumping out of Carlos shirt. It paced in front of them and curled into a ball. James shook his head. "I'm sorry, Jamie! You know I couldn t just leave it there!

James sighed. "I know, I know." He looked down at it. "I do admire your dedication." A thought came up in James mind. "Well, why were you flinching the whole walk home?"

"He was clawing me."

James nodded. "Lift up your shirt."

Carlos blushed. "Well, you aren't usually that obvious..."

James shook his head and laughed. "Get your mind out of the gutter. I just want to see if your bleeding." He blushed even more and took off his shirt. James' mouth fell open. There were several large gashes that could've been made by a wild animal and numerous small scratches that were still bleeding. "Surely your back can't be that bad." Carlos turned his body and James raised his eyebrows. His mouth was still open when he slowly shook his head. "Actually, it can. Wait here. I'm gonna go get you a rag. Lay down until I get back and for god's sakes avoid that demon cat." Carlos nodded and laid back on their bed.

James walked into the kitchen where Mama Knight was nowhere to be found. He turned to Kendall and Logan, still on the couch. "Where's Mama Knight?"

Logan looked up at him. "She went to run a few errands. Why?"

"I need to know where the rags are. Carlos got the crap beat out of him by a kitten."

Kendall snorted. "Oh, come on. It can't be that bad."

James shook his head. "I didn't think it would be that bad at first, either. Where are they?"

"In the drawer beneath the kitchen sink." Logan replied.

"Thanks, Logan." James said as he turned and walked over to the sink. He bent down and opened the drawer. He picked up the one on the top and stood up to wet it. When he had soaked it, he squeezed enough of the water out to the point where it wasn't dripping. "Let me know when Mama Knight gets back. I need to ask her a question." James called to them as he walked back to the room.

When he opened to door, the kitten was lying on Carlos chest in a little ball. Carlos was petting it and he looked up at James. James shook his head. "I told you to avoid that mini demon until I got back."

Carlos pouted. "But, he's so cute! Just look at him." James looked down at the little furball and had to agree with Carlos. If he hadn't had the proof on his boyfriend, he could've swore it was a little angel. James sighed and sat down next to them. He picked up the kitten and set it down on the other side of him.

He started wiping away the blood from all the cuts. "Will you make sure Bitters doesn't see it?" Carlos nodded. "Will you feed it, water it and clean up after it?" Carlos nodded again. He smiled. James continued to wipe away the blood in silence while he thought. "I guess Mama Knight will have to let you keep him now."

Carlos laughed. "That tickles." The cat was moving its tail back and forth, tickling his side.

James smiled. "So, does he have a name, yet?"

Carlos patted its head. "Roxas. It's the name of my favorite video game character from kingdom hearts."

James smiled and kissed his forehead. "That's perfect."

Yay! Okay, so I know these aren't supposed to be related but little Roxas will be mentioned in the future and when I said I'd make 'Car accident' a multi-chap fic, I meant I'd add a chapter from Kendall and Logan's POV. Sorry for the misunderstanding!
