1:00 AM

Somewhere in a park, a boy is curled up on a bench…

"Shit, it's so fucking cold," Elsword cups his hands in the attempts to stay warm, but to no avail.

Elsword sighs and rubs his arms with his cold hands. He wasn't wearing much, only a loose grey T-shirt, baggy shorts, and some run-down pair of sneakers. They weren't very clean either.

Elsword knew what he was getting into by running away in the first place. It meant losing a roof over his head and warm food that was given to him. But then again, it's better this way, isn't it? Elsword stared straight at the dirty gravel on the ground and continued to huddle even tighter.

"I might as well freeze myself to death. It'd be pathetic if I went back," Elsword scoffed and uncurled.

As his eyes restlessly stared into nothingness, he felt another presence. He turned his head and he noticed another man. Elsword's vision was getting hazy, but was able to recognize that it wasn't the man he was running from. He was coming closer, but the last of Elsword's energy was used up. He closed his eyes and drifted off.

"This is it", Elsword thought… and then his mind went blank.

The very next morning…

"Hey kid, you alright?"

Surprised, Elsword's eyes shot up, quickly rising from the warm bed that he was laying in. For that instance, he thought he had arrived in heaven. However, looking around, only regular house furnitures and decors surrounded the place. And sitting next to the redhead was a tall black-haired man. He looked fairly young, his hair was spiky with streaks of white, and his golden eyes glared into the boy's own crimson eyes.

"Geez, you don't needa examine the room like I'm some kind of murderer," the man shook his head slightly.

Elsword snapped out of his trance. "Oh sorry. Uh.. Cause I guess I thought I was in heaven or something," he replied nervously.

The man gave him a bewildered look.

"Er well.. I found you on a park bench for starters. You looked like you were dying, so I brought you to my place. And well, here you are now, if that refreshes your memory or anything."

"I do recall that, thanks," Elsword smiled and nodded his head.

"Actually, what were you doing out there in the freezing cold?"

Elsword's smile froze. His mind went blank for a second. The voices of that man resonated in his head. "You're just a stress reliever… Meant nothing to me." Just hearing those words sent shivers down Elsword's neck. The boy clutched the sheets tightly in frustration.

He didn't want to mention everything he's been through. There's too much to be said. What's the point to telling his life story anyways? Not to mention, to a stranger too!

The man seemed to notice the redhead's uneasiness when he asked that question.

"Never mind that, actually. My name is Raven. And yours?"

"Oh uh.. My name is Elsword," as his face suddenly brightened up. "I really appreciate your help, Raven."

"It's all good. But I suppose you're going to make your leave and go home now, huh?"

"Oh nah, I don't have a home-," Elsword paused.

Raven gave him the bewildered look again. "Wait what?"

"Shit," Elsword thought.

"Uhm, long story short; I've ran away from my home due to circumstances," the redhead said and shrugged, trying to brush it off like it was nothing.

"I can't let you go back out there now; it's too dangerous for you."

"Well it's already been about 5 days of being homeless. I can manage somehow, I guess."

"After seeing you on the verge of death, do you think that's enough to convince me you can live on your own?"

Elsword had to agree, the guy did have a point.

"You have a point, but I don't expect myself to burden you, especially that I only met you just now."

Raven shook his head. "I'm not sure, but a part of me tells me that I'm not going to regret anything if you stay with me. You're probably different than most of the people that stays with me." Raven said with a tone of persuasion.

The redhead chuckled at the man's thought. It sounded silly to the boy. "Sounds like you're trying to be corny and protective at the same time." Elsword bursted into laughter, almost seeming like he was insane. "I don't mind staying with you under this very roof, however, you probably will regret having me over here," Elsword said in a different tone of voice. It sounded a bit dark when he talked.

Raven's golden eyes stared in his. "What makes you say that?"

"You'll see," Elsword leaned in, making a small gap between their lips. Raven could feel the boy's raspy hot breaths.

"First of all, I'm gay."

Raven's face flinched slightly. He hesitated to say anything. Elsword's face seem to fall a bit grim when he said that.

"I look like it, but I'm not a sweet little boy. My body has been violated, but I can't help but to want more."

The redhead pulled the man closer, whispering the words into his ears. Raven shivered a bit, tempting to do something at that moment. "Is this boy… making a move on me?"

"But… I can't manage much by myself, so seriously speaking: I can't really help you with housework or anything."

Elsword pulled away and yawned. The redhead's attitude seem to return to normal. He then noticed that Raven seemed a bit red, silenced due to the boy's weird actions.

"Sorry, um. I didn't mean to make you awkward or anything," Elsword insisted. "Force of habit, I guess."

For a few moments, it was silent.

"N-Not that I mind any of that, I just want you to stay over with me," Raven said to break the silence.

"Mmm.. I'm glad you accept my conditions. But at the very least, let me do something in return."

Raven hesitated to question what it was. "What is it..?"

Elsword perked up and licked his lips. His face returned to a grim lewd expression.

"Since you're letting me stay with you, feel free to do what you want with my body."
