Chapter 3

Awake to take in the view
Late nights and early parades
Still photos and noisy arcades
My darling we're both on the wing
Look down and keep on singing and we can go anywhere.

Owl City-On the Wing

Gabe's POV

"Asce, he's been looking at me like that for the last thirty minutes. It's starting to freak me out." I stated from where I sat on my living room couch.

"Just ignore him. He'll give it up after a while when he realizes that I don't care." came Asce's reply. I glared and stuck my tongue out at him for his smartass reply. Unfortunately, the action had the opposite effect as Asce grabbed my tongue in between his teeth and pulled me into a kiss. I squealed and pulled away from him.

"That hurt!" Asce was about to reply when I saw the time on my clock. "Ohmagod, it's time! It's on!" I jumped up and ripped the remote from Caemon's hands and flipped to the MTV channel.

"And next we have a premiere video from a very new band, this is Action is the Anecdote by Laundromat Love Affair!" Asce said, roughly translating for the announcer. Caemon, Liam, and the blonde girl (Ellie? No Evette) all jumped up and started to cheer. The video was quite amazing for something that was made in two months, Asce looked amazing and the song was perfect for promoting the bands image. In one word it was…perfect. And I was dating the genius behind the work of art.

"So do you like it?" Asce asked. I responded by placing a kiss on his lips.

"You're teaching him English?" I asked from my bed. I flipped through the French celebrity magazine, I couldn't understand any of it but there was an article on tattoo designs. The pictures were giving me ideas.

"He wants to learn. Oh that one's pretty." Asce pointed to a picture of a rose with a vine and thorns circling around someone's wrist.

"Nah, too painful. Why does he want to learn English? It's the one thing I have against him." Asce just groaned and nuzzled his face into my neck.

"It's too early to talk about this."

"Then why did you did you bring it up? What if I get a rose on my hip?"

"That would be cool, make it green. I brought it up because I thought it would lead to morning sex. Morning sex is fun."

"Why green? Wait, why would it lead to sex?"

"Green roses, reminds me of a dream I had. And it leads to sex because every time I mention Caemon, you get angry. And when you're angry, you want sex." I put down the magazine and thought for a minute.

"Really?" I asked, disbelieving.

"Yup. Remember that one time when you wanted to watch Heroes but I wanted to watch American Idol?"

"Umm…vaguely."

"Well basically we fought for the remote for like ten minutes until you finally jumped me and we had sex on the couch while the news was playing on the channel we had wound up on."

"We had sex during the news? That's kinda…disturbing."

"Or kinky."

"No, disturbing. So, I think I'm gonna go with the green rose thing on the side of my hip."

"That's a good idea; you should get those thorn-viney things wrapped around your waist too."

"Huh…maybe…sooo…wanna have sex now?" Asce immediately threw himself on me and began to attack my neck with his lips. I giggled and wrapped my arms and legs around him.

"Gabe, GABE! Where the hell are you going?" Asce yelled after me as I slammed the bedroom door in his face. That stupid FUCK! How could he do that?
