Title: Jealous Rating: PG13 Length: 286 Competitor: Neal Round/Fight: 1/C Summary: Neal wishes he hadn’t waited so long for Kel, that he’d moved quicker than his cousin.
“Neal, I can take care of myself.” Kel’s tone was sharp and her eyes were angry—not that Neal could blame her. Kel had never walked in on him and Yuki and proceeded to yell at them the way he had just yelled at Dom and her. She probably would have just walked away, which is what he should have done, but the sight of his best friend in his cousin’s arms, his mouth on hers and his mark on her neck, had made his blood boil.
“What in Mithros’s name is going on?” he had screamed, and they had broken apart and looked at him with kiss-dazed eyes. And now Kel would chew him out for it.
“I just don’t want you to get hurt,” Neal said quietly, trying very hard not to let his anger show. He would play the protective friend, as always, even as Dom’s name and several choice swears intermingled in his head.
Kel’s eyes softened. “Dom’s not going to hurt me,” she reassured him. Her hand on his shoulder startled him, but how he wished she would leave it there.
“I know.” He murmured, and she left, hair let loose down her back and shining.
If Neal was being honest with himself, and he tried to force himself to be, he wasn’t mad at Dom or Kel, but at himself for not acting sooner. He knew she’d had a crush on him when they were younger, and yet when he found himself returning her feelings he still did nothing. He would pay that price, now, as he watched Kel rejoin Dom at the end of the hall, her hand immediately going to his.
Gods, he was jealous of his cousin.

Shrill scream, and then quiet regrets. Very Neal!
