Love's Will
Chapter IX
Happy Birthday, Syrus!
Previously:
Jaden however...was holding a secret. Not the angel's wings... but that was a part of it. You see, the Gods did grant him this life, but it came with a few consequences, and he was ready to face them if that meant seeing his family again somewhere other than up in the clouds, not being able to go and see, hold and kiss Chazz at all. The consequences... were that Jaden still had to go back to heaven every once in a while... he could only spend two months a year with Chazz...42 days...man... it wasn't much, but he was willing to do anything if it meant holding Chazz once again.
Also...
In about ten years from now...
Jaden would have to go back to heaven...
...For good.
Continuation:
The next day, Syrus woke up sleeping next to Zane. Syrus smiled. He must've stayed the night, he thought to himself as he cuddled in closer to his husband with a sigh.
Zane slowly opened his eyes. "Nnn..Syrus?" he whispered with a small smile.
"Hi, Zane," Syrus said with a smile. Zane brought Syrus close to him. "Happy birthday, Syrus," he whispered softly.
Syrus smiled and snuggled into Zane with a soft sigh. "Hey, you know what? I think Jaden and Chazz were planning something for us all to do together today."
"Really, like what?" Syrus asked with interest.
"Let's go down and see, shall we?" Zane asked, picking Syrus up in his arms bridal style, causing Syrus to squeal and wrap his arms around Zane's neck.
Zane carried Syrus downstairs. All was quiet and the lights were off, making Syrus cling to Zane. Syrus hated the darkness more than anything.
But then, all the lights turned on and there stood Jaden and Chazz, along with Alexis, Atticus, Bastion, Hassleberry, Aster and Chumley. "Happy Birthday, Syrus!"
"You guys...did this... for me?" he asked with wide eyes.
"Of course, Sy," Jaden replied with a grin. "It's your birthday, after all."
Syrus smiled and looked up at Zane. "You knew about this, didn't you?" he asked.
"Hey I helped plan it, I was supposed to keep it a secret," Zane said with a smirk.
"And you did...I didn't suspect a thing," Syrus said with a smile.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Atticus asked. "Let's get the party started!"
Syrus giggled and got out of Zane's hold, but still stayed close to him, his back leaning on him, his back on Zane's chest as Zane lead Syrus and the others into the living room.
A few hours later, music was booming by Good Charlotte, one of Syrus' favorite bands. Everyone was either playing games or watching television. Syrus and Chazz were on either side of Jaden while Zane looked at them from his place talking to Atticus near the corner of the room.
Jaden gazed fondly at the both of them. He loved them both so much. Syrus was his best and his first friend. Chazz was his lover. No one could replace any of them.
They both snuggled against Jaden as the television turned on. Jaden smiled and wrapped an arm around both of them.
Zane merely smiled over at them, trying not to show his jealousy. "Man, your jealous, Zane," Atticus pointed out.
"Yea... okay, what so I am?" Zane asked.
"They're just friends, man, you know that," Atticus pointed out.
"I know... I know..." Zane replied, glancing over at Jaden, Syrus and Chazz all the while. "It's stupid really. Jaden's married -- why would he go and choose Syrus? Yes. Paranoid. That was the answer. He was paranoid. Jaden would never steal Syrus away from him...right?
The three of them were laughing at a funny part of the movie they were watching and Zane turned to look at Syrus. He looked so happy, and the way he looked up at Jaden... Syrus adored Jaden. 'Well that's obvious...considering how much he cried when he died...' Zane thought.
Zane Truesdale's thoughts were plagued by jealousy for the whole entire party.
