For the shounen-ai crazed, the boy love is just right around the corner. X3

It was nearly nine o'clock when the trio finally decided to head home. Vincent walked the lonely street home, depression obvious of his face. This was, probably, one of the best days he has ever experienced so far. He scratched his arm as he looked up at the stars, just standing there, remembering the events of the passed day. A smile appeared on his gloom face and began walking again, entering the gates of his amusement park and walking up the stairs to his castle. Vincent was welcomed with many greetings as he entered the more "roomy" aspect of his home. He ordered food to be spent to his room as he passed the kitchen heading straight to his safe haven. Opening the door he pushed a button on the phone that sat on a small table by the door. Vincent listened to the message left on his machine as he discharged and sat on his bed.

"Hey Specter..." said a recorded voice, it was deep and smooth, almost sexy if you will. Vincent sighed and collapsed on the pillows, he knew exactly who it was. The recording continued, "Guess who? Yes of course, the only one who would ever be capable of escaping the boy with the net. One an' only Red." Vincent's eyes drifted to the window as he hugged a pillow. "I was just wonderin' how my favorite boss was doing. I know how boring it must be without me there to entertain you, am I right, Specter my boy? Well, brace yourself, before I leave town to get away from the kid I'm going to visit you for a final time. It's my pleasure to see you again." Red practically purred though the whole recording. With the click of the phone hanging up, Vincent's eyes closed as he shivered. He remembered what Red had always done before he had gotten captured. This was how he got Red and his group to join forces with him. The boy's eyes gathered tears under his closed eyelids; Red wasn't the gentlest monkey in the group, just as he looked, he doesn't know his own strength. Vincent only dealt with it because he wanted to finally take over the world. He opened his eyes, his vision blurred with tears; he had to think of some way of avoiding Red. He didn't want to go back though the painful experiences again. A knock on his door brought Vincent back to reality. And that's when the thought finally kicked in. Red cant get to Vincent because Vincent was now "human" no longer a monkey. Now all he has to do is ask Spike if he can stay at his place for a while, yes, I said Spike. Something about Spike, when he wasn't chasing his minions around, aroused Vincent. Another knock on Vincent's door sounded impatient.

"I'm coming!" Vincent said and got off his bed, his tears already dry. He opened the door to find a monkey holding a tray of food. Vincent smiled slightly at the monkey and took the tray saying a thank you before closing the door. He took the food to his bed and sat down and began eating, his face beaming with happiness. He was going to try and stay with Spike for a while.

The next day came rather quickly for Vincent. He woke up the next morning only to find out it was only 7 o'clock. He had to wait six hours longer till he could meet up with Spike...and Jake. We all know that feeling of extreme happiness a night before an event and you just wake up early and have to wait.

Waiting, waiting, waiting.

That's all Vincent did. Get dressed and sit on his bed, waiting. Eventually he fell back asleep. Time went faster in Lala Land, and yet, it was a little out of Vincent's grasp. The six hours Vincent had been waiting for had passed and so had two extra hours. A knock on Vincent's door woke him. He rolled over and buried his face in a pillow.

"Nnhh... what do you want?" he muffled into the pillow. The knock came again but louder. Vincent lifted his head and looked at the clock on the night stand, His lazy eyes shot open. "OH SHIT!" and with that said he jumped out of bed and ran out the door, knocking down the money that was there.

Jake and Spike sat on the bench in the park where they ran into Vincent yesterday. Jake was leaning against Spike shoulder sleeping while Spike constantly checked his watch.

"Where is he?" he mumbled to himself and looked around once again. Spike's head stopped and he squinted his eyes, seeing a quick paced figure running over to them. It ran down the stairs and tripped while at it, tumbling all the down. It lay on the ground for a few seconds while the pain numbed away. Spike sat there watching, an amused expression on his face. Vincent lifted his face from the ground and looked at Spike and waved franticly before standing back up and running over to them, trying not to trip again.

"I-I'm s-soo..." Vincent cut off short of his sentence to catch his breath. Spike looked at him a smirk upon his lips. Vincent looked at him and lipped the words 'shut up' to him. Spike laughed waking Jake up. Jake slowly opened his eyes and found Vincent in front of him.

"You! You are two hours late yo!" Jake sat up and scolded him. Vincent looked at Jake and flipped him off. Jake did the same. Spike shook his head and leaned over, kissing Jake on the cheek. Vincent looked at the two, his eyes a bit wide, a bit of jealousy building up inside.

"Stop it." He said to Jake then stood up. "Let's go somewhere you guys." And Spike began walking off; Vincent and Jake following close behind.

About half hour passed and three were still walking and Jake and Vincent were getting impatient. Jake wrapped his arms around Spikes neck behind him.

"Spikeee..." he whined. "Where are we going?" Spike stopped and looked at him.

"I was hoping one of you guys would say something!" Spike spat and turned around, Jake let go around Spikes neck.

"How about we go to your place? I mean, we cant go to mine cause of me 'rents." Jake said and stood, his weight on one foot.

"That sounds fine to me, what about you Vincent?" Spike glanced over at him. Vincent shrugged.

"That sounds fine to me, my place it a dump anyway." He lied. Then it was agreed, off to Spike's place it was.

Long long time ne? Yes I am still alive. Wow my summer sure was more packed than I thought it was o-o I finally got off my summer camp which was Mondays-Thursdays that took up most of my day, then Fridays I have to work, Saturday I gotta go to my brother's games and Sundays... eh, nuffin of Sundays.
