Hello readers!
I am back and in "business" writing this story again
I've reread my 'Don't Let Me Go' series, and I can say…..I'm so glad that you guys have read it, but I don't know how. It's been a few years and I can totally tell that my writing has improved. There were so many spelling errors and punctuation problems….I don't know how you read it, but I am glad that you did.
Along with that, I read your previous reviews and some mentioned how they couldn't believe that Cross would rape Allen and send him to a camp to get him out of this "phase", while he had previously taken advantage of Lavi and looks like he is still inclined too. The reasoning is simple...people are shit, and humans, half the time we don't know how to react/act; even when we're being hypocrites.
Second topic to address, did Allen forget about Tyki Mikk because he sure seems like he has, being enthralled by Devit. That is going to be answered throughout the story and hopefully it will all make sense to everyone in the end.
Now, please enjoy!

Chapter 13
Kanda's PoV:
Slow waking up from-a thankfully-nightmare free sleep, I could feel the warm embrace of Daniel around me. His soft breathing could be heard in the quiet room. Slowly shifting in his arms, I gazed up at him, and remembered the first time I had laid eyes on him. We had been in our final year of middle school when he had caught me eye. He had been walking, minding his own business when he came across an elementary girl being harassed by a small group of young boys. I watched him, expecting him to act like how everyone else had, and just ignore them and move on, but he had been different. He stopped, crouched down to their level, and the next thing I knew the kids were all laughing. I didn't know what he had said but the girl had wiped the tears from her face, the boys grew to look sheepish, and they all began to laugh.
Since that day, I found myself unintentionally keeping my eye out for him. I'd see him not as often as I would've liked to, so I did something about it. I slowly figured out his schedule of where he would most likely be, and I inserted myself there. He was usually alone and usually at the library working as an aid. I was out of my mind happy when he talked to me the first time, even though it was just to ask me for a pencil, that when I realized that I was in love; so when we became friends, I was ecstatic.
Brushing his thick blond hair-what shone like the rays of the sun itself-I opened my mouth to say something, when no words came out I sighed while I decided to snuggle closer to the one man that I grew to love almost unbearably so. His slow, steady, strong heartbeat was the lullaby that drifted me off to sleep.
Allen's PoV:
I laid there in utter bliss-in the afterglow of finally losing my man virginity. Devit was next to me, his breathing still hard as he stared wide-eyed at the ceiling. "I never imagined that THAT would feel THAT good," he breathed out as he laced his fingers over his stomach. Turning his head to look at me he smiled, "I guess today we both lost something to the other."
At his words, realization full struck me; I wasn't going to be stuck here for the rest of my life. I was going to be able to see Tyki Mikk again; I was whoring myself out to Devit. Thinking back to it, I didn't know Devit, and I didn't even know Tyki Mikk all too well either. I had just met Devit, and Tyki Mikk I was only just barely beginning to know before I was sent here. A horrible feeling slammed me right in the gut as I lost all sense of confidence, I didn't even know what I was doing here, and I definitely didn't know if I was making the right chooses.
Startled I looked over to Devit-who had just laced his fingers through mine-questions and uncertainty clouded my thoughts. "Is there a phone here that I can use?" I asked Devit while I shook his hand off and stood up.
When all I got in return was silence I looked over at him. Devit was frowning at me while he watched me towel off. "Well?" I snapped at him as I felt the panic at what had just happen settled in.
"There is, but it's in the Earl's office, you gotta sneak in when he's not there to use it," he stood up and grabbed his own towel from where it had been thrown onto the floor. "Good luck doing that on your own though," he grumbled as he stalked out from the showers.
'Great, I probably just pissed him off, although I couldn't blame him for being a little mad, I was acting like an ass.' wrapping the towel around my waist I walked to my cabin in search for Krory. He was laying on his bunk reading a magazine. "Hey Krory!" I greeted him as I quickly got dressed.
All I got in return was a grunt. I guess I deserved that as well, I wasn't doing to good with making and keeping friends at camp. "Is there a way to sneak into Earl's office when he's not there?"
Turning a page in his magazine, Krory said with a yawn, "There is," he flipped another page, "you sneak in when he's not there, it's that simple."
"Dude!" I hissed out as I ripped the magazine from his hands, "I'm being serious here."
Krory looked at me with a sad look-almost like a kicked puppy-finally he sighed as he sat up, "Fine, around 12 in the morning-when he thinks that everyone is asleep-he goes to the cemetery that is down the road."
"Wait, what, why?" I asked dumbfounded at how strange that was, "Wait, nevermind, he does this every night?"
"Yep, every night," Krory extended his hand, "can I have my magazine back now?"
"Oh, yeah, here you go," I handed the magazine back, while glimpsing that it was a vampire magazine with guys dressed up scandalously with other men. Climbing down from the short ladder I hesitated, "Hey Krory?"
"Yeah," he impatiently huffed out as he flipped another page.
"Don't get mad at me, but I heard that you….raped someone," I whispered.
Dropping his magazine on his lap, Krory sat there with his arms crossed, "Is that why you've been avoiding me?"
All I could do in response was nod.
"No, I did not. I'm hurt that you would think that," he ranted. "I get that we haven't know each other...like at all, but do I seem like the type of person to do that?" when I shook my head he continued, "Now look at my body, I'm hella skinny and weak, do I even LOOK like someone who could even pull off something that horrible?" Again I shook my head. "That's right!" he said as he turned his back to me while grabbing his magazine again. Before I could open my mouth to apologize and ask forgiveness, he quietly uttered. "The reason why I'm so into vampires is because I was attacked by one of my dad's friends who tried to have his way with me. I'm not strong by any means, but I am able to clamp down hard with my jaw; so I bit him. Afterwards, when the guy finally got me to unclamp my teeth from him, he called me a freak. Everyone says that vampires are freaks, and it was my bite that saved me, so if I turned myself into a freak, then no one would mess with me in that way again. That's why I am the way that I am."
There was nothing that I could say in response to that, taking the new information that Krory had just opened up to me about, I laid on my bed; maybe Devit was one of those liars.
12 a.m.
It had just struck midnight when I crept out of bed, staying in the shadows, I crouched waiting to see Earl leave; by 12:05 he did. Creeping over to his cabin/office I slipped past the door and slid my way to his office desk. There is was, colored a bright red, shining like a poisoned apple in the moonlight. Grabbing the phone, I dialed Tyki's number and waited for him to pick up, but the line just rang until it went to his voice mail. Disappointment filled me, but he was probably asleep and I could leave him a voice message.
"Hey Tyki, it's me, Allen. I'm sorry I haven't been able to reach you until now. I was sent to a camp called 'Hell on Earth', it's not as bad as it sounds...yet. Anyways, I was hoping that you'd pick up so I could talk to you," tears clogged my throat, but I cleared them away with a cough. "I miss you, and I think that I did something bad...I don't know what I am doing here, and I am so so sorry." the tears that I was trying to hold back, ran down my face as I rubbed my nose on my sleeve. "I hope that when I see you again that you can forgive me, I gotta go. I'll try calling you again tomorrow around this same time." My lips trembled as I debated if it would be okay for me to say what I wanted to say next, finally I decided to go with my heart, "I love you," I sobbed out as I hung up the phone gently. Turning around I hurried back to my cabin, wiping tears as I went.
Lavi PoV:
"What the hell, what do you mean you sent him to a camp?" I yelled out at the frustratingly drunk man across the table from me. "Why did you send him there for?"
Cross looked away from me as he started to pick at the wooden table. "Does that really matter?"
I could feel all the blood rushing to my head, "Fuck yeah it does," I exploded. Grabbing Cross's shirt front I yanked the infuriating man towards me. "Tell me," I growled out.
Cross's eyes were wide with disbelief before he slid them away from me, "I sent him there because I found him in bed with another guy."
My fingers loosened a tad on his shirt collar, "Are you serious?" I breathed out. "You fucking had a romp with me and you sent him to a camp for doing the same thing?"
Looking at me with determined eyes, Cross defensively said, "I'm an adult, so I know what I am doing. He's just a kid, he doesn't know what he wants."
I stared at the guy before me, "Are you fucking serious?" I whispered out my body trembling in rage.
"Yeah, so wh-," I ended Cross's sentence when I hauled back my fist and slammed it into his face while letting go of his shirt with my other hand. The punch was hard enough to send Cross tipping over his chair and sprawling across the floor. "What the fuck are you doing?" He yelled at me.
"Where is this camp you sent him to?" I asked as I stood over him, anger simmering in my eyes.
At first I thought that he was going to put up a fight and refuse to tell me, but after a moment's hesitation he relented, "Hell on Earth." Turning on my heels, I left him on the floor.
Tyki MIkk PoV:
The walk back home without any clothes on was one of the most embarrassing things that I had ever had to do. I had been cold, I had received cat calls and whistles from passerbys, I had to endure all of that until a cop pulled over and after hearing that I hadn't done this indecent exposure on purpose, gave me a ride home with a warning.
I was worried because I hadn't heard anything from Allen, and I did have the ability to see him at school due to the cold that I had gotten from my hours walk after being thrown out. I had tried his cell phone, but it automatically went to voicemail; I was stuck. It was my third day without going to school and my fever had finally broke when I woke up to a voicemail from an unknown number. I almost deleted it, but decided that there wasn't any harm in listening to it before deleting it; and I'm glad that I did.
On the other line was Allen, it felt so good to hear his voice that I was almost sobbing with him at the end of the message. I had no idea what he was saying when it came to him apologizing and him doing something wrong, but as soon as the message wass done, I was looking online for the 'Hell on Earth' camp.
Daniel's PoV:
Waking up I smiled when I saw the sleeping form of Kanda curled up on my chest. He was so cute when he was sleeping. My smile turned into a fown as I noticed how drawn Kanda's face was, the dark circles, the chapped lips, the pale skin, the thin body, and not to mention the cuts that he had placed upon his own body. He wasn't eating enough, wasn't getting a good night's rest, and he still wasn't talking. Doing my best to not wake Kanda up, I slid out from under him as I went to the kitchen to make his favorite meal. I wanted him to get better. I would be able to live if he never talked again, but I wanted him to be as healthy as he was before. If talking came later, then that would be more than fine.
