Chapter 7
I felt like someone had kicked me in the stomach.
When I'd found Kid earlier..Spirit had done that to him?
Maka was staring at the blonde pistol, who was still looking me in the eye, trying to hold back the same tears that I wanted to shed too.
I could see Liz looking at us, her mouth drawn into a thin line.
I wonder if this is what she had ment? No..it couldn't have been..when I'd told her I liked Kid she would've told me he's gay, right?
Probably not. She was dangerously loyal to her meister. She could've thought I was joking. Or just fooling around because I was drunk.
Tsubaki was the first to speak up.
"How long have you known?"
Patty sniffed, and rubbed her wet eyes.
"Ages. About a year. He asked me for my help...figuring out his sexuality."
Liz and I gasped.
"Is that why I caught you guys making out?" the elder sister asked.
Her younger nodded solemnly.
I took her by the shoulders.
"Patty. Tell us everything."
(Patty's P.O.V)
Lunchtime is, without a doubt, one of my favourite times in a school day. The food isn't great, but it sure was fun to play with!
I was winning a mini-food fight with Black Star, as our friends "subtly" edged away from us. I wasn't entirely sure what we were throwing, to be honest, but it was green. And it make freaking good ammo.
"HAHAHAHAHA! NO-ONE SHALL DEFEAT THE AMAZING BLACK STAR, ESPECIALLY NOT A LITTLE-"
I hit him directly in the mouth, the green stuff splattering all over his face.
"I win! I win! I win!~" I cheered. It was the usual result for one of our battles.
Realising we were finished, our friends moved back to their original seats, Kid on my right and Soul on my left. I smiled. Maka was sitting opposite him, trying to look as alluring as possible. He didn't seem to notice, however, as he was busy checking his text messages. Looking over his shoulder, I could read the one he was checking.
HYAA, OMG, 3 UR HAIRBND, FKING SMEXY, MEET ME TH CAF, KK? XX
He caught me looking, and grinned.
"Nosy, nosy, Patty."
I wolf whistled.
"Who's it from?"
I saw Maka watching us from the corner of my eye. Haha. This could be fun.
"You mean you don't remember, Miss Thompson? Yooooou sent ittt", he purred sleazily, obviously joking. His meister's face turned bright red.
"I dunno, Mr Evans", I replied back in the same tone, taking great delight in the look of disgust that flashed across his face at the use of his surname. "I sent this text to lots of people last night...just ask Kid and Black Star."
The guys looked up at the sound of their names.
"Wha-wha..?"
Soul and I chuckled. Maka still looked pissed.
We all carried on eating, not saying much, mainly just random crap about lessons and missions and stuff. I was rather bored, to be honest. I stood up to leave, but as I swivelled around on my chair, Kid caught my arm.
"Wait, I need to talk to you."
"Okay", and I sat back down.
"Umm...actually...I meant alone...if that's okay.."
I nodded, and pulled him along with me out of the cafeteria, Liz and Tsubaki watching us, then giggling behind their hands.
He let me drag him through the halls of the DWMA, before I found a corridor that seemed perfectly empty and quiet.
"Okay, Kid, what's up?" I asked cheerfully.
He sighed.
"Patty...you're my weapon...and I trust you...there's something I need to tell you...and you can't tell anyone. Not even Liz, okay?"
"Y-yeah. Sure, Kiddo. What is it?"
Again he sighed, heavier this time.
"Patty..I think...I think I'm gay."
I felt my jaw drop, and made no attempt to prevent it from doing so.
"How long have you known?"
"About a week. And I don't know. That's why I need you."
"What do you need me for?"
His face reddened.
"Can I-can I kiss you?"
I opened my mouth to protest, but he interrupted.
"Please, Patty...I need to know. It doesn't even need to be a proper kiss, a peck would be fine."
I shook my head.
"A peck won't help you know."
He opened his mouth to question, and I pounced, wrapping my arms around his skinny shoulders and slipping my tongue into his mouth. His muffled protests meant nothing.
Eventually he gave up, he had asked for this, anyway. He stood motionless and let me do all the work, which kind of bugged me.
I took my lips from his, and purred into his ear.
"Let your hands wander, Kiddo, heehee~"
His yellow eyes widened at this, but he did as he was told, a little apprehensively, but that was to be expected. He was Lord Death's son, after all. I highly doubted they had had "the talk". This was all new for him. Imagine if he'd done it with a man to start with?
His cold hands started on my exposed middrif. They kind of stuttered a bit, not knowing where to go from there.
"Up", I whispered in his ear. He blushed, but obliged. They slid up to my boobs, and I giggled. He groped me a bit, like he did when he was having a hissy fit about mine and Liz's lack of boobage symmetry.
We stayed like this for a few minutes, me with my tongue down his throat and him holding my breasts. I couldn't tell if he liked it or not.
He probably couldn't either.
"Oh...my...god..."
We separated, to find my sister staring at us in shock.
Kid blushed, and I grinned.
"Hey, sis!"
My meister and fellow weapon glared at me.
"What?"
Liz turned on her heel and left grumpily.
I turned back to face Kid. His angry expression had been replaced by one of confusion.
"What'dya think, Kiddo?"
He shook his head.
"It was good, yes..but I didn't like it in that way..the same way I'd like it if it were a man doing it.."
I sighed, and gave him a hug.
"Is there...any...particular man...you'd rather it be?"
"Yes..."
I waited for a few seconds.
"Who?"
He closed his eyes.
"I can't tell you. I really can't. I can't run the risk of him finding out."
I nodded, understanding, but still a little bit hurt that he didn't trust me enough to tell me.
"Anyways...bye, Patty."
He walked away, leaving me rooted to the spot, wondering who it could be. Before he could walk out of earshot, I called to him.
"Is it Ox?"
He stopped, and turned to face me.
"Why the fuck would it be that creep?"
"Cos he's gay too!"
His eyes lit up.
"Is he, now..."
He ran off at breakneck speed, almost a blur.
I allowed my body to slump against the wall, and sighed, feeling both happy and sad for my meister.
Happy, because he was finally learning who he truly was.
Sad, in case the person he liked didn't like him back.
I cocked my head to one side, trying to work out who this person was.
I listened to Patty's story intently, fondly remembering that conversation with the blonde. I couldn't remember who that text was from, just some slut who I ended up sleeping with later that night, much to Maka's annoyance.
Patty began to cry now, not bothering to hide her tears anymore.
"He told Lord Death about two weeks later, and about a week after that, the abuse started."
I gasped. This had been going on for a year? I took Patty in my arms and hugged her.
"Shh, shhh, it's okay. I'll go talk to him now, okay? We won't let Spirit get him anymore, will we guys?"
Everyone nodded.
The pistol smiled, then faultered a bit.
"No offence, Soul, but why would he talk to you about this? He didn't tell Liz, and I only found out because he wanted me to help him work out if he was straight.."
"I dunno..but I can't just leave him, can I? That's not cool."
I stood up and left the room, feeling everyone's eyes on my back.
