A/N: Yay I got reviews! AND FAVORITE TOO! Thank you so so much for the support and motivation. School's been keeping me busy and then there are other things as well. But I love you all so much that I shall take away precious rest time to upload Chapter 2. Here it is!
DISCLAIMER: I am not, and will never be Lemony Snicket. I am not him in disguise, nor am I him disguising as someone who is denying he is him. I do not own A Series of Unfortunate Events, even if both Mr. Snicket and I cry ourselves to sleep after writing about the adventures of the Baudelaires. Please insert other legal verbiage here.
II: Dancin' in the Moonlight
Klaus replayed yesterday's dinner in his mind.
His hand crept further and further up my pants. It got to the part that I never let anyone else touch. It stiffened against my will, but it felt so… good. None of the things I had read have prepared me for this. My muscles relaxed minus the one Duncan was stealthily playing with. He grinned at me as he took a sip from his very fancy decanter, a phrase which refers to the expensive looking goblets Sunny found at the storeroom. They had the VFD insignia on one side, and a large S that has a fox intertwined with it on the other. It looked very elegant in Duncan's slim hands.
"Klaus, I think you should talk to Iz. She seems really upset." I noticed how Violet still avoids eye contact with Duncan, and how she talked to me when it was clear to everyone that it was Duncan's actions that made Izzy leave.
"Why don't you tell Duncan that, since he was the one that made her leave?" Violet flushed, but did not say anything else. I know it was not her fault, but ever since Violet, Sunny, Quigley, and I finally found Duncan and Isadora – in the Orphan's Shack at our old school that was now burnt to the ground – Violet has been avoiding Duncan. She knew that he knew that she and his brother was a couple, despite the fact that they still keep it a "secret" from all of us. I cannot believe someone who jumped out of a window of a burning hospital is more terrified of telling someone that they cannot be together than diving into a grotto full of deadly mushrooms. Somehow, it makes my blood boil.
"Sis, you haven't talked to Duncan ever since we found him ailing and half-starved. You should be the one doing the talking, not me."
I felt Duncan squeeze my thigh and I let out a small sigh of relief. So Duncan still feels something for Violet then. Wait… why… why am I thinking this?! Of course Duncan feels only for Violet! But glancing at Duncan's pants, I was quite sure that the bulge I see was not meant for my sister.
I still don't understand how I got from there to here, Klaus thought.
He was in Duncan's and Quigley's room, which was the only room to have a balcony. Quigley must have slept over with Sunny and Beatrice, as he usually keeps them company at night. He could tell that he didn't come in because he saw the door had a chair wedged between the knob and the floor, securing it from opening by force or by Violet's ingenious picklocks. But that wasn't what he did not understand. What Klaus did not understand is why he woke up without any clothes on, which he never sleeps without. And why he felt so tired, despite sleeping until two in the afternoon, as he have guessed from looking at the length and angles of shadows in the room. And why he is embracing Duncan under the covers, with his hands on his privates.
Most of all, he doesn't understand why he feels so happy with all this.
Aaaaand it's over! I'm sorry it's a bit shorter than the first chapter, but I'm really tired and I wanted to upload it as soon as I can get it to quality. The actual plot for Chapter 2 will now be Chapter 2 and Chapter 3. I hope you guys don't mind. Sooooo… what do you guys think? Does Klaus feel the same way for Duncan? How did he end up in bed with him? Are they ever going to make peace with the ladies of their lives? Why were these goblets hidden in the VFD safehouse? Am I going to stop asking questions? I want to know what you guys think! So please give me reviews! Suggestions on how slash couples act would help too, as I'm not very familiar with it
Thanks for reading, and Happy Single Awareness Day!
