Chapter 2.

Knives' silver-blonde hair flowed as he moved through the hallways. His ice blue eyes searched for his room as he walked slowly. 'I need to lay down ... Get my head straight. How could this happen ... I planned it perfectly. Hmm ... I guess I surprised him. I mean being so forward after all these years of "shyness" ... maybe that's it! ... Who am I kidding! I remember the first year I came here. He was so nice; he picked me up right when the bus left us on the doorstep. Ah, here it is room 235. My sanctuary.' Knives gripped the doorknob with his slender fingers opening the door slowly. His room was painted a gray color. With various posters assorted every where. He had 16 different posters of all his favorite bands.

Slipknot (a/n: the K is supposed to be backward XD) is his favorite but nothing compares to the awesome Metallica. He smiled at all his posters. He had a nice radio on a nightstand next to his bed. Knives looked over his darkened sanctuary before he slipped off his sneakers. He made sure that the blinds were shut tight before he slumped down on his bed. He let out a sigh as he remembered what happened outside.

"Everything was going so well! ... I can still feel those lips." Knives sighed again.

'I just can't get my head around that man. Heh, reminds me of that Offspring song.' He muses as he shakes his head. 'I might as well go to sleep'. Knives told himself as he laid on the bed. He barely started to drift off with the small incident that happened earlier still swimming around in his head when all of a sudden a scream came from the hallway. He opened his eyes irritably and stood up.

"Now who the fuck could that be?" He whispered as he opened the door to find Vash with his backpack thrown at the other end and his pants down on the floor. Knives raised an eyebrow as he saw Legato trying to hide his laughter. His blue hair fell over his left eye, which was a nice shade of amber. Vash smiled sheepishly as Midvalley erupted in laughter. "The hell is going on?" Knives asked legato who was standing next to Midvalley.

"He pulled the ultimate prank!" Midvalley said pointing to Legato.

"That's too much recognition. I just had to get you back for turning my teeth green last week." Legato said to Vash with a grin.

"You're too cruel! Kitty-boy!" Vash said as he pulled up his pants. "That wasn't funny! Why'd you have to pull my pants down in front of the girls?" Vash said hotly as he pointed to Millie and Meryl.

"I didn't think you'd care since you ARE gay!" Legato said as he laughed again.

"Grrr ... With YOU!" Vash shot back trying to muster the dignity to walk to his room. "God you're so mean to me ... I don't know why I fell for you!" He said as he stormed out of the hallway and into his room. Legato looked at Vash's door for a few seconds.

"5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ..." Legato whispered. Right after he said 1 Vash stormed back out.

"WELL?! COME ON!" Vash yelled as he grabbed legato's arm dragging him inside. "We need to talk!"

"Oh yes we do." Legato said in an amused voice. He let his eyes search the room while he stood at the doorway. "Especially with doughnuts and ... is that lu-" Legato was cut short as Vash pulled him into the room and slammed the door.

"Well ... that was VERY odd ... yet funny don't you think Millie?" Meryl said with her raven hair swishing as she turned around to head for the lounge.

"What does 'gay' mean?" Millie asked in her usual innocent tone of voice as she followed her friend.

Meryl let out a small sigh and decided that Millie wasn't old enough to know what the word meant ... at least the way Legato put it. 'Well Millie is 15 but come on! How can she NOT know what it means! ... She really is too innocent!' "It means happy or merry! ... yea" Meryl rolled her eyes as she said this. 'That'll do.' she mused.

"Oh so ... Vash was happy ... and then he said that he was happy with Legato?" Millie said confused. Her big brown eyes gazed down at Meryl as they walked slowly.

" ... Uh ... yeah!" Meryl replied as they turned the corner. Their voices faded as they kept walking farther away.

"Well ... It's time for me to jet ... ladies are waiting!" Midvalley said as he walked in the opposite direction clearly getting bored now that all the "action" finished. His brown hair was slicked back except for a few strands that fell around his face.

Knives let out a sigh as he went back into his room. 'Geez ... I'm surrounded by idiots ... and 2 lover boys that are fucking in the room right next to me ... I really want Nicholas back here with me.' He sighed as he turned on the radio to drown out the noise from Vash's room. He crept underneath the covers in his bed and snuggled his face into the pillow. 'Why won't he come back to talk to me? Please Nicholas ... I've waited so long! Since that incident ... You must've thought I was too little ... that I'd forget ... but no, I would never forget that ...' Knives mused as his eyes drifted close. He started to dream of the past and to him, it was a very confusing past.

The small bus carrying to little twins turned the corner of a street and headed for the parking space in front of a freshly painted building. A man looking about in his middle 60's stood next to young boy about 12 years old. The boy had black hair and wore blue jean shorts with a white T-shirt. He had tan skin, which contrasted with the white immensly. He had pearly white teeth and a huge smile to show them off with. The little boys pushed their faces against the window to get a better look as the bus came to a slow stop. The old man that stood next to the boy had a smile on his face and his white hair was pulled back. He wore a pair of old jeans and a T-shirt. The man walked to the bus and a little boy with honey blonde hair that was in its' spiked up position shot out from the bus doors to cling on to him.

'My, my ... your a nice little boy!' The old man said as he picked the little 3-year-old child up. Just then another little boy, poked his head out and looked both ways before stepping out of the bus. His sliver-blonde hair shined radiantly underneath the sun's rays. It was cut short, almost too short. It was the work of a child.

'Hi there!' The young boy with black hair said. He hovered over the small figure of the 3-year-old and quickly picked him up. The little child gasped and struggled a little but soon relaxed. 'My name is Nicholas! What's your name?' Nicholas asked happily as he held the child.

'...' The small thin child didn't reply.

'Come on now! What's your name?' Nicholas pressed.

'It's Knives ...' The little child answered.

'And what's yours?' The older man asked the twin that he carried.

'It's Vash! ... what's yours mister?' Vash said with an ear to ear smile.

'Well your not the shy one, are you?' The old man said, 'My name is Mr. Adams!' The old man smiled and carried Vash inside, letting Nicholas have more time to make Knives feel more comfortable.

'Lets go show you inside! There are really nice kids inside!' Nicholas beamed.

'As nice as you?' Knives questioned.

'I don't know' Nicholas pondered the question, 'but you can figure that out by yourself!' Nicholas smiled as he carried the small thin child inside.

A few years passed by quickly and soon Knives found himself at the age of seven. The only friend he had was Nicholas or what he usually called him: Nicky. His brother Vash was popular among everyone. He of course was an outcast. They already made fun of his small slender body. The older teens made fun of Nicholas for spending all his time with Knives.

Knives shifted as he grunted. He curled up even more as he kept dreaming of his past. He shifted once more as he started to dream of the night that would change him forever.

His small body shot up into a sitting position as he woke up from a horrible nightmare. His eyes stung with tears and he got out of his bed. His brother was in the bunk above him and was snoring loudly. The little boy didn't want to wake him up so "Plan B" went underway. He opened the door silently and rushed to the "Teen Section" of the hallway. His eyes were blurred by the hot tears rolling down his face as he fisted his hand and softly knocked on a wooden door.

Nicholas opened the door and his eyes widened as he saw the small 7-year-old standing there, with tears rolling down his cheeks.

'I had a nightmare.' Knives said simply. Nicholas gazed down at the feminine boy and stepped aside to let the boy in. Nicholas let a small sigh out as he thought of what to say. What does a 16-year-old say!?

'Um, well here' Nicholas said as he motioned Knives into the bed. 'You can sleep here so you won't get any more nightmares.' Nicholas said. Knives smiled as he wiped away the tears from his eyes. his longer hair fell down over his eyes as he lifted himself onto the bed.

'Thank you Nicky.' Knives said quietly as he snuggled into the covers waiting for his older friend to join him.

Nicholas laid down and covered himself too. His face turned to the young boy who was curling up against him. His eyes stared at the small boy and he blushed as the child looked at him with wide blue eyes.

'Nicky ... you know how people kiss booboos away?' Knives asked in a whisper, but since it was the middle of the night Nicholas heard it loud and clear.

'Yeah I do. Why?' Nicholas responded curiously.

'Well ... do you think you can kiss my booboos away. They're right here.' Knives said as he pointed to his heart.

'Um, well-' Nicholas was about to respond but Knives interrupted.

'I'll kiss your booboos away! Because I know that if children are sent here then something bad must've happened to them!' Knives explained.

'Well ... see that's kind of complicated ... I don't think anyone can kiss those kind of booboos away' Nicholas tried to explain. Knives somehow unbuttoned the older ones shirt while he explained, 'HEY! Hey, hey! What are you do-' Nicholas exclaimed but ended in a small gasp when he felt the child press his lips against his tanned chest. Knives lifted his head and smiled happily.

'See I can kiss your booboos away! Can you kiss mine ... they're hurting bad.' He said quietly. Nicholas blushed and looked at the ceiling. He couldn't! This was a kid! ... It wouldn't mean anything! He kept telling himself that as he uncovered the small creamy colored chest. He lowered his head to the small chest and placed a kiss right above his heart. He couldn't help but run his tongue over the spot but quickly pulled away. His face flushed a bright red but thank God it was dark.

'T-thank y-you' The young child stuttered as he stared at the small wet mark on his chest. He looked up at his best friend and ... something more. The kid couldn't point it out ... but there was something. His blue eyes gazed into the charcoal eyes.

He looked down at the tan chest of the older man and leaned back in for another small kiss. His little lips covered a patch of skin and he also ran his tongue over it just like Nicholas did. Nicholas' eyes widened and he let out another small gasp when he felt the child's wet tongue run over a small patch of skin on his chest. The young boy looked up and gave a big smile as he snuggled into Nicholas' chest. Nicholas wrapped his arms around him and drifted asleep with smile on his face. His eyes opened slightly when he heard the child whisper. Knives didn't seem to notice that Nicholas was awake as he brushed one of his small hands over the older one's chest while he whispered.

'Nicky ... I'm glad you kissed my booboos away ... they don't hurt no more.' Knives said in a hush as he himself drifted off asleep, cradled in Nicholas' arms.

Knives' eyes opened as he slowly sat up rubbing his eyes. He saw a tall figure by the side of his bed and heard that his radio was turned off. Knives squinted when that figure turned on the light.

"Geez you took a long nap." A familiar voice rang in Knives' ears. 'Nicky?' Knives thought as he got used to the brightness of his room. "You must have been dreaming 'cause you were moving all over your bed." Nicholas said with a smile as he sat down on the edge of the bed. His black hair seemed to be in every direction as his olive tan skin set a pile of books and papers on the nightstand. "I never remember having this much homework!" Nicholas exclaimed, "and SO complicated ... When I went to school all you needed to know was how to count to hundred then you were fine" he said with a laugh. Knives gazed at him as he talked 'What? Is that all he came here for?' Knives mused to himself.

"Is that all?" Knives said seriously ... he really didn't want to play around the subject.

"No, I need to talk to you ... again" Nicholas said with a smile. "I just wanted to say ... sorry ... I can't do this with one of the orphanage chi- I mean teens" Nicholas said with a hint of sorrow.

"But you would've done it if you weren't in charge of this stupid place!" Knives shot back as his eyes shined with a hint of anger. "You almost did it when I was 7 so why not NOW!" Knives said raising his voice. Nicholas' eyes widened as he remembered that night clearly.

"T-that was a long time ago" Nicholas stuttered. "It won't work out" He said regaining his confidence.

"Why not? Because I'm a guy!" Knives shot back. "Or is it because I'm too young! Well I don't give a flying fuck what it is ... I just wanna be with you." He finished by flinging his arms around Nicholas' neck and snuggled his face into the older man's shoulder. Nicholas instinctively wrapped his arms around the younger ones waist and pulled him into a tight embrace.

"I know ... It's just ... I am the head of this establishment, and I need to protect the ones that live here ... not fuck them" Nicholas said as he inhaled Knives' scent which made him shiver. 'The kid smells so good' Nicholas thought to himself. Knives took this chance to lick the older one's neck. Nicholas shivered again and picked the slender body of Knives so that Knives was sitting on top of him.

"Nichol- ... Nicky ... I love you" Knives said before he intertwined his thin fingers into Nicholas' thick black hair.

Nicholas caught the younger boy's lips with his own as he tightened his hold on the boy. Knives opened his mouth to great the caretaker's tongue as they started a duel for dominance with their tongues. Knives let out a moan when he felt Nicholas run his hand over his slim body. Nicholas tore himself away from Knives' mouth so that he could get some air into his lungs. 'I really don't want to rush this ... Please give me strength ...' Nicholas mused until he felt the boy grind against him. 'Oh holy Jesus ... I need A LOT of strength ... tomorrow's a Saturday ... this could work out ... but I just told him no! I can't go against my own words ... yes I can ... it's very easy' He decided that he'd give in when he heard a groan come out from Knives' throat. Knives was flushed, his silver-blonde hair was starting to become as wild as Nicholas' black hair. His lips were parted as he took in deep breaths. His thin body grinded against Nicholas with such hunger. 'Oh he looks delicious! Oh this feels good!' Nicholas pushes Knives on the bed laying on top of him. His big olive hands unbutton the boy's pants, quickly pulling them down. Knives bucks his slim hips upwards as the older man runs his hand over a very sensitive spot.

"I ... don't wanna hurt you." Nicholas said quietly while rubbing Knives' erection through the boxers. Knives just grunted as he kept grinding against the hand. Nicholas gazed down at the sight of the boy. His eyes closed, his cheeks are a nice shade of red, and his mouth is open as he lets out a groan. Nicholas leaned down to the boy's navel kissing it gently. Knives shivered involuntarily and moved his hands to Nicholas' hair. Nicholas kept his hand moving in a steady motion as the other lifted up Knives' red shirt, revealing two perked up nipples. He moved his head up towards them and slowly latched his mouth on one. Knives let out a small gasp as he threw his head back making his silver-blonde hair spread in all different directions. 'Mm, oh God. They taste way better then I imagined' Nicholas mused as he flickered his tongue out before he sucked on the nipple. Somehow Knives removed the older man's pants and slipped out of his own boxers flinging them aside.

"Mm ... Ah, Nicky!" Knives moaned out. Nicholas kept sucking on the perked nipples as he used one hand to fling off his boxer. Knives grinded against the caretaker's thigh. They were getting closer to their climax as the kept grinding. Nicholas finally moves his mouth away from the nipple and toward Knives' erection. The younger boy held onto his bed sheets as he felt a wet, hot mouth engulf him in one fluid movement. Nicholas moved his head up and down as he swirled his tongue. One hand was on the younger boy's waist to stop him form moving while the other went down to his own erection that was becoming painful.

Knives moaned and shivered a few more times before he felt heat rise all through his body. His whole life turned into a little speck as he tensed up letting his seed come into Nicholas' mouth. He felt the mouth sucking asking for just a little more until there was no more to give. He rolled his hips riding out the last waves of pleasure before he heard a moan and felt Nicholas tense up too. He lifted his head up just enough to see Nicholas with his hand around his own erection pumping it one last time before he came all over the sheets. His body went into a spasm and he moaned out one last time. Knives smiled, his white teeth showing. His blue eyes locked with charcoal ones as the older man laid down next to him.

"I ... I love you Nicky." Knives said as he snuggled into Nicholas' chest. His creamy colored skin made a wonderful contrast against the olive tanned skin.

"I love you too" Nicholas responded instinctively, even though he was half asleep. The older man smiled as he wrapped his arms around the slender boy. Knives smiled as he remembered how his dream ended ... will he be like this forever. He hoped so. The night came as the two men held each other sleeping soundlessly. Will the dream ever end. This is just another life ... or is it ... it can turn into so much more.
