"They have their lives, Jason. I know this. And I'm glad Zane is bonding with Leela too. He needs it. I..I think he liked Cherry and then she snapped so... he needs it."
Sighs, closing his eyes at his harsh words, forcing himself to remember that this was Nathaniel the kitten, not Nate the bastard. Nathaniel would be upset, not angry, at those words.
"Where he tells me I'm not his kitten anymore. That you two are... together. Like no one else. I.. I have heard the others talking. I know. I... I know I shouldn't listen but I did and... I don't want to hear it yet, Jason. Please."
"I don't want to be in the way. Don't want to be just some little boy that you two have to work around. Want to be kitten again. Someone's kitten. Anyone's."
Standing just outside the door, eyes tightly closed. Hearing every word, wincing with every accusation. Hearing Jason and looking up, meeting his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Jason. I shouldn't have said that. Maybe I should go. Live with Lee. Or Sennyo and my other. Or that man that offered tonight. Leela says you and Gabriel will be married soon. Don't need a child like me in the way."
Closes his eyes, leaning his head back against the wall. "We can't send him away because he's pard, he's ours, and I don't trust anyone not to hurt him."
Opens his eyes, turning his head to look at Nathaniel.
"And leaving things the way they are is hurting him too."
Looks back at Gabriel.
"I can't keep hurting him Gabe, but I'm scared to death of fucking things up even more."
Reaching over, taking Jason's hand and pulling him close. Whispering softly, not sure if Nathaniel can hear them or not.
"We only have two choices. Either we take him into our relationship, as our pet. Or we find him a new home, as horrid as that sounds. He's not a puppy, I know but..."

Sighs, shaking his head, moving off the bed.
"I'll get Gabe for you, okay?"

"Please... Either go or stay but don't get him. Not ready for that talk. Not ready. Please."

"He's your mate. Get him if you must."

"Why are people so mean about me serving?"
no subject
Date: 26 Jul 2005 06:02 (UTC)"I'm not sure either."
Looks down at the blanket, running his fingers over it.
"Because they're all about free will and responsibility and 'oh no, slavery is bad and the slave is always horribly abused' and bullshit like that."
He looks toward the door, frowning.

Sighs, resting his head on Gabriel's shoulder.
"His decision and yours. You two have to figure this out."
