"I'm going back to Japan"
The plane ride was uneventful, and the cab ride to his brothers place, was also rather uneventful. His brother was currently staying in a hotel, and so Oliver went there. He knew where it was, and the room number. Oliver had in fact, helped by booking the room. So he knew everything about it, like the booking details and so on. He ignored the staff, and went right to it.
He knocked twice, but there was no answer. He had his luggage on him, and he didn't want to have to carry it around much longer. So he decided to use a little trick he had picked up. He walked to the lobby, and spoke to the lady at the reception. She dropped what she was doing, and instead stared at him longingly.
"Hello, how may I help you sir?" She asked, rather flirtatiously. Oliver tried his best not to rear back and glare. After all, his brother was likely to have been polite and smiled.
"Sorry, I seem to have left my key card in my room, could you by chance let me in?" Oliver asked kindly, his smile false, but easily fooling the goggling girl.
"Oh yes of course! What's your name?" She asked, his cheeks red. Oliver was sure that, had he asked her to give him all the money she owned, and told her to dance naked, she would have, thinking it would somehow make him hers. She was, in other words, an idiot.
"I am Eugene Davis" Oliver said, annoyed at how much she was leaning over the desk. Her way of flirting apparently. Her top was low cut, but from this angle, Oliver could have seen down it had he even glanced. He didn't have to try hard not to. The girl frowned slightly at his ability to ignore her advances. She checked the room number, and the ID scan she had on the screen. He matched the picture, and so she nodded, and handed him a second key. She didn't say anything, still sour after being rejected.
Oliver thanked the girl and walked away, to which, as soon as he was gone, the girl muttered to herself, saying how he was obliviously blind or gay.
Oliver let a scowl become him as soon as she couldn't see him. He hated girls like that. Throwing themselves at any handsome face, not bothering to learn that he was rather cold. That's why he ignored them. The easiest way for them to understand.
Quickly abandoning thoughts of yet another offended girl, Oliver made his way to his brother's room...
Mai smiled sheepishly as Gene, once again, paid for dinner. "Gene, you don't have to pay all the time" Mai argued weakly. If she was to be honest, she was happy she didn't have to pay. Gene's idea for a meal was, for lack of better words, very expensive. She would blow her whole weeks food money should she have paid.
"I don't mind, it's rather the least I could do" Gene replied, waving his hand dismissingly. "You saved my life Mai... I would have died, if it wasn't for you" Mai blushed lightly, looking away. She couldn't really say anything to that, so she just nodded.
"Thank you then Gene" Mai thanked in defeat. Gene chuckled, and Mai blushed again. Gene had grown to be very handsome. When they were younger, Mai always thought the twins looked handsome, but in a cute way. Now Gene had matured, and they weren't kids anymore. It was no longer socially acceptable for them to share a room, or for them to sleep with her, hand in hand like they had done as children. She missed that... She remembered finding it hard to sleep after they left. She missed having them beside her.
"Did you know it was me who you were saving?" Gene asked randomly, and he and Mai collected their coats before walking out.
"No, I didn't. I just saw someone not moving, and I didn't need to think about it" Mai admitted, seeing the sweet smile spreading on Genes lips.
"Still just as kind as ever Mai" He complimented. "I don't want to stop talking just yet. Would you like to stay at mine? I will walk you to wherever you need to be"
Mai blushed brightly and stuttered, "Gene, I can't, it's not-" Mai was cut off by Genes abrupt outburst of laughter. "Huh?"
"Oh Mai, you are so adorable" Mai blushed more, and Gene smiled again "I have a spare room, and I will respect you, don't worry" Gene assured, to which Mai's blush darkened, and crept down her neck.
"I-I know that" She muttered, but she smiled after Gene chuckled again. "I would love to" And both of them smiled at each other, and Mai felt something in Genes gaze. Mai didn't know what it was, but it made he blush again.
"Then let's go" Gene called, linking his arm with Mai's. She blushed, but grinned, ignoring the many jealous mutterings around them. And they both left...
Oliver sighed, once again. He had called his brother at least three times. He had planned to go out to see his brother, but it was rather difficult when he had no idea where he was. So he decided to stay put. Gene was likely to be back here sooner or later.
Oliver heard footsteps, and decided that he would be back sooner rather then later. But then he heard talking, and became rather perplexed.
"-humble abode" Oliver heard Gene say, as the door swept open. His voice was then quickly followed by a giggling, and it was quite obliviously not his brother. Oliver froze.
"Noll?" Gene called, walking in. Oliver could see the confusion in Genes eyes, but it didn't give way to happiness like Oliver had hoped. Gene had begged his brother to come with him, but Oliver had too much work to do. When he heard about Mai's appearance, he had come to a compromise, and left the next day. But now that Mai was here, Oliver felt that he was intruding somewhat. He looked to Mai, and his eyes softened. She gasped, and held a hand to her lips, her eyes locked with his. Noll could see her struggling. He could see the urge in her eyes to hug him. Gene had most likely told Mai how he had changed. Mai may have thought a hug was a little too out his comfort zone. From Mai, for some reason, it wasn't.
Oliver stepped forward, and before he could even stop himself, he enveloped the brunet into an embrace. Mai stopped putting on a brave face, and her tears flowed freely. She wept, but wrapped her arms around Oliver's neck. Gene looked away. Once again on the side lines...
Soooo... Please review! Love you all! Till next time!
