………………………………
Nobodies
"You are a nobody kid."
Linus glared at Rusty, feeling a sudden hatred towards the blond.
"Who do you think you are? My father?" Linus hissed.
"Like you ever listened to him?" Rusty retorted, his infamous smirk still planted on his lips.
Linus really wished he could hit him right then and there, but he knew that Rusty could easily take him down.
"I may be a nobody, but every single person here, even you, is a nobody. We are a bunch of nobodies. That is what we are and what we will always be." Linus growled, before grabbing his jacket and storming out of the room.
They were thieves. They were runaways. They were always on the run, always on the job.
If they wanted to live, they had to be nobodies.
Linus knew that, but the way that Rusty said it, well, Linus was sure he wouldn't be able to see him for a while without wanted to smash his head into the wall.

Gone Forever
……………………
Linus laughed, for the first time in many months, he laughed.
His cousins were talking about their own exploits and in what fell like forever, his mind was completely free of Rusty.
He shared a few stories of his life, but for most of the visit he just sat back and enjoyed the atmosphere.
Yes, he felt so much better, his mom was right that he needed to get out.
His mother was always right.
……………..
Linus walked back into his apartment and looked around. There were still signs of Rusty.
Linus hadn't cleaned out, he hadn't done anything but lay in bed and watch TV. He had been angry at life and at Rusty for the past, five months.
He hadn't seen Rusty in the past five months…..
Linus fell himself grin from ear to ear as he turned on the radio and cleaned the apartment.
………………
"Where were you?"
"Just out."
…………..
"Who were you talking to?"
"Danny."
………………
"Where are you going?"
"Going to see Danny."
…………….
"Does she know?"
"Know what?"
"You know what!"
"Shut up! You don't know what you are talking about!"
"Oh, don't I?!"
"Do you really think we are that stupid?!"
………………………
Linus smiled, plopping down on the bed, feeling free, finally.
He had no idea where Rusty was and he really didn't care anymore.
He was free.
…………………
………………………………
Run to the Water
……………
Linus wasn't expecting anyone.
Actually, he was really surprised when he heard a knock on his door. He was sure that no one knew about his father's house by the beach. It was where he went for some lone time.
For some reason, it didn't surprise him too much that Rusty knew about the house, what surprised him was that Rusty was actually there, outside his door.
"Rusty?"
"Hey, kid, going to invite me in?"
and so Linus knew, his lone time was ruined.
…………………………..
"There is Sally and John, they are our neighbors. They can be a bit intense, but they are nice people overall." Linus explained, motioning over to the red house all the way down the beach.
Rusty looked over and smiled, wind rustling his hair. Both he and Linus were walking barefoot on the sand, enjoying the sunset.
Rusty stopped a few feet away, having just noticed that Linus was no longer with him. He turned around and just watching Linus look at the sunset. Linus had not questioned him and had just allowed Rusty to stay with no explanations.
Linus turned his head and smiled at Rusty, who just smiled back.
…………………………………
Linus was back the next summer.
On the first day, he ran into the water, diving and swimming deeper into the ocean. He needed to be away from land, just for a few minutes. He needed to be free, to be alone.
His father was becoming more demanding. His mother was getting sick.
Everything was falling all around him.
Once he got back to the beach, he saw Rusty, sitting down and watching him.
He didn't question him, he just motioned for Rusty to follow him.
…………………………………….
Rusty had heard the news and knew just where Linus was.
He shook of his sandals and walked up the stairs, into the patio. He could hear the sounds of sobbing and it just broke his heart.
Linus laid in the living room, on one of the sofas. In his hands he clutched a picture frame.
"Linus?" Rusty broke the silence, walking over to sit next to him.
Linus looked up at him, eyes blood red, cheeks tear streaked.
"She's gone." Linus whispered. Rusty just pulled Linus into his arms, unable to do anything but be there.
……………………………………..
It had been a year since he'd last been back to the house by the beach, but he missed the ocean.
"Linus?" Linus turned around from looking at the ocean and smiled at Rusty.
"What are you doing?" Rusty inquired, taking Linus' hand and tugging him closer.
"Just watching the waves." Linus answered, with a smile.
"Come on, let's run to the water!" Linus ran off, laughing towards the ocean.
"Hey!" Rusty cried out, before following after Linus, laughing along.

Cupids Choke-hold
……………
Daniel watched as Rusty once again, roped another girl into hooking with him. Danny couldn't understand just why Rusty saw fit to hook up with so many random girls.
He shook his head.
……………………………
Danny sipped his drink, watching the master at work.
Rusty slid into the empty stool next to the red head. She seemed quiet and kind.
She seemed really sweet, the virgin type. She would probably get her heat broken.
Danny hoped Rusty knew what he was doing.
///////////
Danny leaned back and ate some of his fries. He was actually hoping to see Tess walk by the place, but so far he had no luck. However, Rusty was getting himself into some trouble again. This time he was talking up some blond. She was pretty, and Danny could tell from the bubblegum chewing to the pink purse that she was an airhead. She would probably tell her dad and bring trouble.
Danny really hoped that Rusty knew what he was doing.
…………………….
Danny was glaring at his phone. He hadn't heard from Tess, and she said she was going to call him later. No he was not pouting.
Rusty seemed to be having the time of his life, putting the moves on a brunette. She seemed the smart type. However, Danny had yet to see a girl not fall for Rusty's charm. Maybe for the first time, a girl would not fall for Rusty.
Danny really hoped Rusty knew what he was doing.
……………………………
Danny couldn't think of what to get Tess for their anniversary. He needed something special and where in the world was Rusty, who should be helping him.
Rusty was hitting on some raven haired beauty. Danny had to admit that she was breath taking. She seemed the dominant type; definitely not someone who would let a man walk all over her. She could break Rusty.
Danny really hoped Rusty knew what he was doing.
……………………………..
Danny was waiting for Tess to get there. She should be getting off work in the next five minutes.
In the meanwhile he watched as Rusty lapped up attention from his new conquest like an eager puppy.
Danny was amused by just how whipped Rusty was. Of course, Danny had to admit that those baby blue eyes could make anyone into pudding.
"Hey," Tess kissed him on the cheek and settled in the chair next to him. She looked over and watched amused as Rusty pampered Linus.
"Hey, Tess! You are here!" Linus said, slipping into the chair in front of Tess. Rusty sat next to him, arm immediately going around Linus' waist.
Rusty had it bad for Linus, it was nice to know that Rusty was settling down. Linus was a sweet kid.
Danny just hoped Rusty knew what he was doing.
…………………………..
Catch Your Wave
………………………..
Linus sighed as he leaned his elbow against the window's ledge. He wasn't sure why he couldn't sleep. It had been a rather tiring day, he had had a test in his psychology class and a test in his forensic science class yesterday. He should be sleeping it off.
however, he couldn't find any rest.
Linus sighed once again, and leaned his head against the window pane, eyes closing.
he had thought he was over stupid crushes. He should have gotten over it. He was sure everyone grew a crush on Rusty at first meeting. He should have gotten over it as everyone else did. However, there he was, dreaming about Rusty.
Linus couldn't help himself and sighed….for the umpteenth time that night.
……………………..
Linus chewed on the pen as he tried to solve the problems from the book. He really needed to get more sleep or his grades will start slipping and that was never good.
he had been pick pocketing again. He had stayed away from big jobs, which made his parents ecstatic for some reason. His mother, well, she always wanted him to finish school. His father, he didn't understand his father and he was beginning to resigned himself to that.
"Hey, kid." Rusty said, sitting down in front of him, settling down a tray of food on the table.
Linus looked up and felt his breath be taken away, once again. For some reason, he fell hard all over again. It was not good.
"Rusty." Linus greeted him with a nod, before going back to his work.
"That's all I get after weeks of not seeing eachother?" Rusty picked up a fry and watched with amusement as Linus rolled his eyes and looked back up at him.
"What do you want?" Linus asked him, getting down to business. Rusty could tell something was bothering the kid, and decided to figure out. Maybe he could get a date out of it.
"Nothing, just checking up on you. Wanting to spend time with an old friend, is that a crime?" Rusty smirked.
"Hmm, we are not friends." Linus replied, picking up his books and stuffing them into his bag.
"I have class," Linus went on, standing up, grabbing a fry, before heading out.
Rusty frowned, wondering if he had just been stood up and denied.
………………..
"So, you sure taking your schooling very seriously this time," rusty mused, looking up Linus who was coming in from school. Rusty was sprawled on the sofa, flipping through one of Linus' books.
"Rusty, why are you here?" Linus groaned, dropping his bag on the floor and going to the kitchen to make something to eat. He was sure something would go wrong, something always went wrong.
……………………..
