The Love Drug Chapter 11- Gone
Feilong stood there, shocked. How does he know about Zero? What does he mean by "my Zero"? Feilong thought frantically.
"I have no idea what you're talking about."
Kaname's eyebrow rose up. "Oh don't you? Please don't make me more angry then I already am. I jus-"
"What he's saying," Asami said, cutting off Kaname "is that we already know that you have Zero Kiryu here. We know that Takahiro Yamamo sold Zero to you to pay off debts. It would be easier for everyone if you just handed him over without having a bloodshed first."
Feilong's eyebrows creased in frustration.
"If I did have Zero I wouldn't give him to you anyway! Very daring of you to come in here and demand something that obviously isn't yours in the first place Asami!"
A dark look came over Kaname's eyes. "Zero is mine."
"Oh? And what, did you buy him? Did you stamp your name on him? Because I certainly didn't see one!" Feilong yelled.
"See one? What have you been doing to him?" Kaname shouted.
Asami put a hand on Kaname's shoulder. "Maybe we should just leave."
Shock hit Feilong again. "Yes... I think that's the best," Feilong said a bit hesitantly.
Just as Asami and Kaname were outside the door Asami looked back in and said, "Especially since we have someone in here looking for Zero."
The door clicked closed and Feilong stood there letting that last bit of information sink in.
The door opened again and Tao came. He had only been there for a few seconds before Feilong was out the door running towards Zero's room.
I will not lose him.
Zero sat there staring at the door just after Feilong left. He slowly got out the bed and walked towards the window.
He loves me? Why me? I'm just something he likes to collect.
Zero put his forehead against the cold glass and sighed.
He wasn't sure how long he had been there before the door opened. He assumed it was Feilong and didn't bother turning around.
"Zero Kiryu?" said a voice that wasn't familiar.
Zero turned around thinking it was one of Feilong's subordinates coming to take him to Feilong but instead there was a young, fair-haired boy standing there at the door with another suited guy.
"Ah- yes?" Zero responded.
"Thank god we found you quickly. Please come with us."
Confusion crossed over Zero's face.
"Who are you? Is this by Feilong's orders?"
"Ah no. Asami told us to come get you."
"Who?"
"That doesn't matter right now. I can explain after we get out of here."
"Get out of here? How? That's crazy! I'm not going with you. I don't even know who you-"
"You're Kaname Kuran's lover right?"
Zero stood there stunned by hearing Kaname's name? Has he finally come to get me?
"That what I thought. Please come with us. We won't hurt you. We have little time and we need to hurry."
Zero still stood there not knowing what to do. Leave Feilong after that major confession? But Kaname! He's come to get me. I-I-I need to go.
Zero crossed the room and the guy smiled. "I'm Takaba by the way."
The suited guy looked outside the door and waved for them to follow him. The three of them walked down the hall quickly. Fear slowly slid up Zero's spine. What will happen if Feilong finds out? What would happen to me? Or worse, what would happen to Kaname?
They ended up at the same flight of stairs Zero had taken to run away from here.
From behind someone shouted, "FIND HIM!"
They rushed down the stairs and out the door. They ran to the left and stopped in front of a car. The suited man opened the door and said, "Please get in quickly."
Zero climbed in and Takaba after him. Suit man took the driver's seat and began to pull away just as a sharp bang hit the back of the car. Zero turned around and saw Feilong aiming a gun at the car.
Feilong kept shooting at them. With each time Feilong pulled the trigger Zero could feel his heart tighten bit by bit.
Feilong got smaller and smaller as they drove away. He disappeared as they turned the corner and raced down the street.
Was Feilong mad for someone taking something that was his or was he mad that... that something he loved was being stripped from him?
"Zero-kun?" Takaba said breaking Zero out of his trance. "Are you alright?"
Zero thought of everything that happened in the past few minutes. He was going back home now.
"Yes," he said slowly.
-
Kaname sat in the car beside Asami. He looked at the dark tinted windows as they slowly went up the street.
"What happens after this?" he asked Asami, not looking at him.
"Well," Asami began "we wait."
Kaname turned his to look at him. "Wait for what?"
"For Takaba's call. He should have Zero with him."
"Takaba? That kid? You sent him to get Ze-"
"Don't worry. I sent one of my subordinates with him too. I'm smart enough not to send him alone, Kaname. Don't worry okay? Everything will be fine."
Asami stared at rage burning in Kaname's eyes. He knew what he was doing so he couldn't understand why Kaname was so angry.
"When should we expect the call?" Kaname asked fiercely.
Asami took out his phone and checked the time. 2:26 pm.
"In a couple of hours."
Kaname turned back to the window closing his eyes. He had been waiting for this day. For Zero to finally be back in his arms.
But now I have to wait a couple of hours till that can actually happen, he thought. Dammit.
-
"...ro."
Ugh... Who's calling me at this time?
"Zero!"
Zero jolted awake to the sound of his name. Beside him sat Takaba. They were still in the car.
"Sorry to wake you but we're here."
Zero rubbed his face hoping it would make the grogginess disappear.
When he looked out the window he saw that night was slowly taking over. They were driving up a dirt road to house that was at the end of it.
"Where are we?" Zero asked, looking back at Takaba.
"We are at a safe house that Asami owns. It's basically the more suburban part of China I guess."
Surrounding the house were big open areas filled with grass. It was almost endless. You could also see the faint glow of the sun setting beyond it.
The car halted to a stop and the suited man came out and opened the door for Zero. Zero slowly stepped out, followed by Takaba, and took in a deep breath of the fresh air.
Takaba headed for the house and Zero followed closely behind. They made there way up the porch and to the front door. Takaba pulled out keys and opened the door to reveal a living on the left and dining room on the right.
Everything inside was decorated with a modern accent. The floors were made of wood. Blinding white walls with an occasional picture, living room with a black couch and love seat, glass coffee table, and a big TV. The dining room had a glass table as well and had black metal chairs surrounding them. To the right of the table was a bar with all sorts of liquor and to the right was a door that probably led to the kitchen. The stairs to the second floor was farther down the hall. Hanging above the foyer was a chandelier that blended in well with everything else.
"Wow, this is considered a safe house?" Zero said before thinking about.
Takaba chuckled. "Well this is what Asami prefers. Are you hungry? I think there's some stuff in the kitchen. And I'm sure you want the full explanation."
Zero nodded. "Yes please."
Takaba walked straight down the hall past the stairs and in to the open space before them. The kitchen was filled with all the latest appliances and seemed to be fully equipped with dishes, utensils, pots, pans, basically everything you would need.
Takaba opened the fridge and looked around.
"Shit," he muttered.
"What's wrong?" asked Zero.
Takaba turned around to face him. "I can't cook!"
This made Zero laugh. It felt good to laugh after barely smiling for what seemed like forever.
"Well if there's eggs I can cook that," Zero said.
Takaba nodded. "Please do so."
After Zero made some omelets they sat down in the living room and Takaba told him how everything happened.
"You see, Kaname somehow knows Asami. After you were abducted Kaname looked into the guy that took. Supposedly Takahira Yamamo was involved with Chinese mafia back then. After learning that he went to Asami. Asami immediately had his subordinates do some stuff in China and whatever. They saw you when you ran away. By then Asami, Kaname, and I were already in China. Then thats when I came to get you."
Zero sat there letting all the information sink in for a moment.
"But... that doesn't sound like Kaname."
Takaba snorted. "I'm sure you think this is crazy, but it's true. I'm not sure how Kaname knows Asami either."
"And why did Asami send you and not Kaname?"
Takaba looked up from his empty plate. "Oh because they were the decoy. They wanted to give Feilong a moment before realizing that we would actually get you. Oh shit. That reminds me. I need to call Asami."
Takaba pulled his bag over and rummaged through, finally pulling out his phone. He dialed and put the phone on speaker.
It kept ringing and ringing. Zero thought that it would ring forever until a deep voice came from the other line.
"Takaba?"
"Yep."
"Is everything okay? Do you have him?"
"Yes. He's sitting right in front of me. And you're on speaker."
A pause.
"Oh. Zero?"
Zero was about to respond but the same thought continued to bounce around his head. Why does Kaname know someone who is involved with mafia?
"Yes?" Zero answered shakily.
"Are you all right?"
"Fine."
"Give me second."
Silence hung in the air between Takaba and Zero as they waited for Asami to come back.
Suddenly a familiar voice came out instead of the deep one. It warmed Zero's heart as he heard his name being called out.
"Zero?" asked Kaname.
Relief rushed through Zero. Takaba put a hand on his shoulder. He wasn't sure why until he realized that tears began to fall down his face.
"Kaname," Zero whispered shakily. His shoulders began to shake uncontrollably as he tried to silence a sob that came from his throat.
"Zero. Don't be upset. I'll see you soon. Takaba-kun is gonna take you to where I am tomorrow morning. Then we're gonna go home okay?"
Hearing the warm, loving voice of Kaname had never brought Zero so much happiness. He rocked in his seat looking forward to seeing Kaname again. Finally after so long.
"Okay," Zero managed to whisper through his silent sobs.
"Zero?"
"Yeah?"
"I love you."
