Zein's Point of View
"Ace... gentle."
"I'm trying..." he replied hoarsely.
I can't help but blush at what he's doing. It doesn't hurt me because I'm actually tickled. I don't know if what we're doing is right.
"Ouch!" I flinched at what he did.
"Uh, did I hurt you?" he asked.
"No, Ace. It's so delicious! That's why I said ouch, right? Because it tastes good. One more and I'll really choke you."
He laughed when he finished what he was doing. I wanted to stand up and leave him because of what he did but I couldn't.
Our hands were handcuffed to each other, making it difficult to move and limiting my range of motion. So even if I wanted to leave him, I couldn't.
"I'm sorry..." The pain seemed to go away when he kissed my hand while looking at me.
Damn. How can he do things like that? Is it that even when you're angry with him, it just suddenly disappears. Just one word to him and the pain is gone.
"Why do you still tie me to you? I won't leave you."
"You left me once."
I was silent.
We looked at the door when someone knocked. I just smiled when I heard the laughter outside, led by Matt. We're in Ace's room now, so they're probably spreading rumors.
"Damn... Why, Zein? Why do you have to send them? Aren't I enough?" He snorted.
I just smiled because his words seemed to tickle me. You still haven't changed... Ace. You're still the innocent demon I knew. The man who had no idea that his cock could kill with excitement.
"I just missed them," I replied.
His eyebrows furrowed and he clearly didn't like what I said. I remained silent because I knew he was going to get even more angry.
"You missed them? Great! It's good that you missed them while I didn't. Just great, darling."
"Don't be silly, Ace."
"Is that what you call it? You said you missed them while I, who was with you earlier... there's no more I love you... there's no more I miss you."
He pulled at his hair in frustration. "I'm damn jealous and it's killing me," he whispered.
Awesome. Even if this guy is in a car, I still enjoy it. King of corniness and drama.
"I love you and I missed you."
"Do you think you can get me like that?" He said angrily before his gaze dropped to my lips. "Kiss me," he said firmly.
My eyes widened at what he said. I still can't get over what he said earlier, 'I'll tie you on my bed, both of us naked,' which is why scenes like this are still awkward for me.
"Ace... they're outside."
He grinned, which confused me. It seemed like he understood what I said differently.
"You wanted a witness, you should have said so earlier..."
He took the remote control he was holding and pointed it at the door, causing it to quickly open. My eyes widened when Cedric, Raze, and Vanessa suddenly fell to the floor at the same time.
Matt and Jerome, who were behind them, laughed.
"Gah! That hurts. Good thing I have abs." Cedric grinned as he immediately stood up.
Damn! They've been listening for a while. Should I be surprised? These creatures are really a violation of privacy, so I shouldn't be surprised.
"Alas!"
Raze ran towards us and acted like he was about to hug Ace when he suddenly turned towards me.
"I missed you, Zein."
"In the count of one..."
Raze quickly pulled away, only scratching the back of his neck. I looked at Vanessa, who was smiling at me.
"Welcome back..."
I was about to hug her when she suddenly hit me. "Why are you here now? Why did you come here? Didn't you run away from us?" she said, crying.
I felt Ace's hand rubbing my head because of Vanessa's resistance.
"My girlfriend might have amnesia."
"Stop it!" Vanessa shouted at him.
I hugged her with one arm. Damn! I missed her. I missed her scolding and her sharp tongue. I also miss this woman's drama.
"Stop the drama... You're the best actress," I whispered.
We both laughed. I looked at Matt who just stared at me before turning around and walking away. Jerome followed him.
We went out and went to the living room where the food they bought was already scattered. Ace and I stayed close together. I couldn't move properly because I felt like I was going to fall.
"Zein is not a criminal! What's so hard to understand?" Cedric shouted, objecting to Supremo's actions.
I just ate the piatos and ignored the mokongs. Jerome and Matt were talking on the floor while Vanessa was in the kitchen making popcorn.
"Zein... I have something to say," Raze said seriously.
I was quickly overcome with nervousness because of his serious tone. He had our full attention and, like me, they wanted to hear what he had to say.
"Why would you tell Zein?" Ace asked, leaning on my shoulder.
"I can't take it anymore..." She almost cried.
"What are you saying, Raze?" I asked, confused by what he was saying.
"He's your brother, Zein. Call him, Kuya."
"He's older than you," Ace corrected.
I ignored it and kept my eyes on Raze, not knowing what to do.
It seems like his problem is really serious for him to be like this.
"What is that? Hang the gahamputs..." Cedric whispered.
Raze took a deep breath and became serious again. I wanted to slap him for hanging himself but I couldn't.
I know it takes courage for him to say that and I don't want to pressure him. He should have said it on his own without us forcing him, especially since his problem seems serious.
"Guys... I just want you to know that I'm going to be a daddy---"
"Congratulations!" Cedric shook hands with Raze, who was confused.
I shook my head because I didn't understand. I looked at Matt and Jerome who also didn't seem to understand what Raze said.
"What is it?" Ace asked me.
"I don't know. Why are you asking me, that's your brother?"
Raze quickly removed his hand.
Cedric glared at him. "I'm not done fooling around yet," he said irritably.
"What is that?" I asked. "Can you just finish it?" I said annoyed.
I still get annoyed when I get hung up.
"Dark... is pregnant."
Our jaws dropped at what he said. We were left in silence for a moment.
The reason for his nagging and acting out is still slowly sinking into my brain.
"I told you it's useless," Ace whispered to me.
Jerome laughed and turned to face Matt, who just shook his head. The two went back to talking.
What else do we expect from him?
This sore eye is abnormal. Who else will inherit it? It's from his or her brother.
"What should I do? He's still young! He can't handle the responsibility yet."
Cedric rubbed Raze's back to calm him down. I just laughed because they were so similar. Both idiots. Who else would understand?
"What is Dark's job?" Cedric asked.
I was shocked to realize why he understood Raze. Damn! He didn't know Dark was a cat. Shit! Ced. Dark is a fucking cat also known as Hoy.
Ace took the piatos from my hand and gave it to me. I gasped when he licked his finger with the remaining piatos powder.
"What?" he asked.
I just shook my head at the fact that... I was surrounded by abnormals.
"How old is Dark? Is he your son?" Cedric continued to ask. "I'm the only one who can understand you because they don't care about you. Why is one of your ma---"
"Stop acting like you know my pain, stop acting like you care. You will never understand me. It's not you, it's me."
"Gah! Why are you yelling at me?! Are you making me eat you?!"
I felt Ace's hand on my cheek and gently turned me towards him. His forehead was furrowed.
"Just look at me... Our child might get infected by them."
"Ace!"
He just laughed softly. He was so happy that I was annoyed. But I admit that I liked it too. I wanted him to be the one to be the father of my children.
"Zein... I'm peeing."
"Edi, pee! Am I holding your dick?"
He laughed. Then I realized what I had said. I blushed because of that. Ugh!
"But I'm tied to you..."
I couldn't do anything but follow. We went to the bathroom. He was facing the toilet while I had my back turned. My whole face was red and my hands were shaking.
"I wouldn't mind if you will look, Zein."
"Shut up..."
"Look, Zein. It's yours, darling."
"Ace..."
"This is what you can be proud of me for, Zei---"
"Fuck you!"
"Here?! Shit! I'm excited, darling."
"Ace Craig!"
He just laughed again. After that, we went back to the living room. My whole body was shaking and my face was hot.
Cedric said goodbye saying he had a date while Raze said he was going to visit Hoy's wife.
"It's a good thing you didn't invite Sister Allison..." Matt said with a smile.
I was stunned. The smile on his lips widened. Ace, Jerome, and Vanessa didn't hear that because they were focused on what we were watching. Matt was on my side so I could hear his whispers.
"S-She's busy..."
"Busy... Okay."
I just didn't say anything anymore.
Allison's Point of View
I was in a dark room. I could see nothing but darkness. It was so quiet that I could even hear my own breathing.
Where am I?
The door opened and someone familiar appeared. I frowned as his face gradually became visible.
God!
"Surprised?"
"Y-You're alive!"
He laughed and put down the food he was carrying. I couldn't move because half of my body was chained up to my feet, so my movement was limited. My leg still hurt from the gunshot wound, which was now bandaged.
"Sshh... do you think I'm dead? I don't die easily."
I felt like I had lost all my strength. My whole body was shaking. I thought it was over.
Ace needs to know this...
"Eat now. Get strong so you can save your brother."
"Don't let Zein interfere. He's out of here!"
He laughed and sat down so we could be on the same level.
"Your sister is so sweet, it's almost like real..."
"What are you planning?"
"Secret. Guess. You're good at this, aren't you? You're good at secrets, so guess."
He sighed and stood up. He turned his back on me but his eyes couldn't escape me.
"I hate you. I will never forgive you. You killed daddy."
I was left speechless by the words he let out. I could do nothing but watch him leave and close the door again. Sadness consumed me again.
"I'm sorry... Forgive me."
