Chapter 7: Hidden feelings (part 1)
"Ya got the script I set up fer ya?"
"I know you're an idiot but I didn't really expect this kind of script…"
"It's amazin', right?"
"What do you think I am? A fool? This script is either the scariest or the weirdest I've ever read."
The ninja set the stacks of papers on the dinning room table. Not only it was scary, it's completely unlike Jay. In the script, he had to act like a different person and he didn't like that…
"It's the best thin' I could come up." Moses said gazing at Jay's back as he wore a dark violet dress.
"So, I have to really act like this in front of your parents. Like a wife-maid!" he turned to his so-called husband with his usual angry glare.
"Now, wait just a minute, Jay. Yer just actin', remember?"
"But still…" The ninja sighed giving away a frown.
"C'mon, Hon. Don't give me that look." Moses walked up to him and gave him a gentle hug.
"If you think a hug will cheer me up then you're wrong, you stupid bandit." He shoved him away as he walked to the corner next to the window.
The pale teen looked out the window and conveniently saw a man and a woman holding hands laughing. Jay smiled seeing this. He then realized a kid running into their arms.
"Mommy! Daddy!" the ninja heard the faint cheers of the little kid.
"Children…A family…When will it be real…?" Jay muttered to himself as rubbed his cold arm.
"What's wrong hon?"
"Nothing…" Jay answered taking his gaze off the family outside and walking past the bandit.
"I'll do the act."
"Great! Then, we got no worries!" Moses seemed happy but Jay has something else on his mind.
The ninja frowned wanting all to be real…Just real…
A few days later (night time)
"Red's parents will be here any minute!" Norma yelled running around the house.
"Norma, stop that or you'll break something. Jay and Sandor just cleaned here," Chloe said.
"Oh my, this will be so much fun." Grune smiled.
"You nervous, Jay?" Shirley asked the ninja a he sat tried to his hair.
"N-nervous? I-I'm not nervous. W-Why would I be nervous?" Jay was clearly shaking. He couldn't even put his hair ornament on without shaking.
"You'll do great JJ!"
"She's right. With that dress you'll be successful." Chloe said.
He wore a lace up mini skirt and a school uniform top. The laces were dark green and her shirt is black. The shirt is a sleeved white top with a dark green ribbon. The whole thing made Jay a little uncomfortable.
"Jay looks so pretty." Grune smiled.
"Soon, the guys will be back with them. What will you do?" The Merines asked.
"I'll do as I'm told. Moses wants me act as he wants it." Jay said trying to tie his hair but couldn't because his hands were shaking.
"Why don't you just be yourself?" Chloe asked.
"It seems that being 'myself' isn't what Moses wants." Jay frowned looking at his annoying shaking hands with his hair ornament.
"Here, Jay. Let me help." Shirley took his ornament started to fix his hair.
"JJ, why don't you just tell Red that you want to be yourself?"
"His parents expect great things from me. So, the bandit thinks that being 'myself' isn't great enough." The ninja explained.
"That's just sad." Norma stated.
"I know Red's parents expect much from you but it's still sad that Red, your husband and your big bro, think that you're not good enough. Man. That's sad, really, really sad."
"Norma." The knight and the Merines gave a glare.
"Jay, you look really sad." Grune observed.
Shirley finished Jay's hair in a half pony. She gazed at his face and…
"Don't cry, Jay. I'm sure Moses had a good reason."
"Yha right."
"Norma, that's enough." Chloe silenced her.
Jay wiped his eyes with his sleeve and tried to hold back any more unnecessary tears.
"I'm fine. It's just sham that's all…"
"But Jay, What about your feelings for him? Is that sham to?" Shirley spoke.
"What's that suppose to mean?"
"JJ, you can't just lock away your feelings. You gotta let it out!"
"Norma is right. You have to tell him." The knight recommended.
"I don't have any intention of revealing my so called 'feelings' to that no good bandit."
Jay walked over to the oven and pulled a steaming golden brown bread cake. He placed it gently on the counter and started to smother the white icing on it.
"I'm sure if you tell him he'll totally get what you feel and Red would feel the same way."
"He doesn't feel the same…I guess…" He wasn't really sure about his statement but he still needed to act cool as he sighed continuing…
"Even if he did feel the same way, I'm sure he would be stupid enough not to realize it…" He got the container with the pink icing and started to place swirl designs on it.
They all stayed silent watching Jay finishing the cake.
"Hey, Ya'll!" The bandit came morphing in.
"My folks are running a lil' late coz their ship got caught in some kind of mess. So, ya have sometime to relax."
"Is that so…" Ok, that was cold coming from Jay.
"What's da matte'?"
The girls sighed leaving the room.
"Totally stupid…" Norma muttered closing the door.
"It's nothing, Moses"
"Ya know ya can't lie to me. What's wrong?"
Moses walked over to Jay giving him a concerned look. The ninja being himself, he turned away to his warm gaze. He couldn't bare even the stare of the bandit…Even if he didn't fully admit he like likes him.(If ya know what I mean...)
"I'm sick of all of this…" Jay muttered.
"And I'm sick of yer attitude."
"Stop tryin' to hide yer feelings. If yer feelin' sad then tell me. I'm all ears…"
Jay slammed the wooden spoon covered with icing on the table turning to the bandit.
"What makes you think you will understand? What makes you think you'll EVER understand!? How can YOU understand what I feel when I don't even know what I really feel!?"
"Ya stop makin' sense…So; ya don't know how ya feel?"
"You are impossible! I-I can't believe I put up with this!"
"Jay, relax will ya!"
"No! I won't relax! I still have to figure this out!"
"Jay! Stop!"
"Curse these stupid emotions! I hate them! I should just die right now then take another one of these!"
"Jay-!?"
"That's right, I should die right now!"
Moses just had no choice but to give him a hard back-hand…
-SLAP!-
"Stop talkin' crazy!"
Jay gazed at the bandit feeling the pain on his red cheek…
Moses' angry look shattered seeing Jay's tears forming…
As the ninja's tears steamed down his cheek, the bandit tried to apologize
Yet no words came out….
