.:Crazy:.

Typically, if I am writing a piece of fiction, I'll have a distinct mark for it. Completed fictional works, like short stories or one-shots, will be titled like this- .:Title:. Poems/Songs will be titled like this- +Title+, and unfinished works (typically posted up in the form of chapters or parts) will probably not have any distinct marking other than, chapter 1/part 1/etc.

So, here's the second fictional work that I'll post in the blog that wasn't even supposed to be about me in the first place. ^^

DISCLAIMER: A.J. Courman is a werewolf. She is MY character. If I see anyone using her or another character that resembles her too closely without my permission, I will consider you a thief, hunt you down, and KILL YOU. Ahem. Kaitso (Kai) Atokata is a werewolf also. He belongs to TheeBycth/Howla, a good friend of mine, and is used WITH permission. Same rules for this character, peeps. Thanks very much!

"I think I like you."


"Why?"


She shrugged as her eyes focused on the sky. A.J. smiled to herself, swinging her legs underneath the branch she sat on. "Not sure," she admitted.


"You're crazy, you know that?" Kai replied quietly, no emotion apparent in his voice. He hadn't had the greatest day and sitting with A.J. in their tree was the only way he could wind down. He sat on the same branch as her, but closer to the base of the tree. His amber eyes were watching her as the setting sun added a shimmer to her pale skin that he hadn't noticed before. His eyebrows raised slowly.


"I know," she answered, swinging one leg over so that she was straddling the branch and facing him. "But I still like you."


Kai, distracted by how well she kept her balance, simply asked the same question, "Why?"


A.J. shrugged again. "You're sweet."


He sneered. "I'm rude."


"You're funny."


"I'm too serious."


"You're cute," she continued as if not hearing his replies.


"I look like a freak," he scoffed. His eyes rolled upward to catch his white bangs blowing in the breeze.


"You're strong," A.J. offered.


"Not strong enough..." Kai grumbled.


"You're smart."


"Not really."


A.J. frowned at the look on his face. She shifted closer to him on the branch and balanced herself by putting on hand on either side of his face, digging her nails into the tree trunk. He refused to look at her, instead concentrating very hard on an ant crawling across the limb just catecorner from them. A.J.'s emerald eyes regarded him carefully. She sighed inwardly. He was in one of his moods again....


She stayed still for a second longer, but he was being stubborn again and wouldn't look at her. A.J. decided to take action. She leaned in slowly and closed her eyes. Before Kai could realize what she was doing, she pressed her cheek up against his. He froze, unsure of what was going on at the moment. She smiled as she felt the warmth of his skin against her face. A low rumbling in her chest, something like a soft growl, escaped her lips as she nuzzled his cheek with hers.


Instinct flared inside of him at the affectionate motion and his arms found her waist immediately. He pulled her closer to him. She opened her eyes and pulled back to look at him. He turned his face to hers and although he still wasn't smiling, she could see the light blush across his cheeks. She smiled softly at him and her eyebrows raised out of hope. He looked her in the eyes and felt himself melt inside. He couldn't say no to her. His lips spread slowly in a small smile.


A.J. pulled her claws out of the tree and wrapped her arms around his neck. She rested her forehead against his. "You're mine," she purred possessively.


He was silent for a moment before he replied in a voice just as quiet, "Can't argue that one."


She giggled and he tilted his face up to peck her on the lips. She closed her eyes and sighed.


"I think I like you," he said quietly.


"Why?"


Kai shrugged. "Not sure."


"You're crazy, you know that?"


He grinned at her. "I know."
