Within Touch Yet Out Of Bounds.
Chapter eight - Eight Echo
Law exited the limo with his young sister. She was grinning like the stupid bird as she took out a cigarette from her pocket. And with ease she lit it and inhaled. Law sneered at Justice smoking. It such a shame that she'd adapted Crocodile's habit. Whatever. That wasn't important anymore. They had sailed that ship a year ago. Law begun to walk away on his quest to find the redhead. After yesterday, he wanted to apologize. He wanted to be friends. And maybe then they can have sex-NO! Friends.
He swooped around a corner but found a crowd of women. He sighed as they eyed him up seductively. He wanted to shout he was gay but he just couldn't be bothered. Well, until he saw flame hair. It was ginger but close enough. He followed the hair as it stopped at a corner where the man was reading the notice board. Probably for any news on the music exam. Yes, Justice had returned from the gym with a barrel of information about this Alex-Child fellow. Law didn't listen to her before she mentioned 'Kid's twin' and then Law remembered reading Kid had a twin in his file.
Standing besides him, Law wore a fake smile and spoke, "I want to talk to you."
Alex narrowed his eyes, "Sure. I have a questions for you too."
Law nodded and waved his hand to the dining hall, "I don't have my first lecture until one so if you'd like to have a coffee with me."
"You paying?" Alex asked. He was broke.
Law held back from rolling his eyes. "Yes."
"Lead the way."
...
Eustass Kid stumbled into his lecture late. Glances were shot to him but he returned them with a fiece look. He had mechanics. Taking a seat, the professor begun to speak and tell them about a car engine and its main purpose when Kid eyes begun to droop. He couldn't sleep last night. His mind occupied with those words Law had whispered ever so sweetly in his ear. "Have you ever had sex with a rich boy?" He gulped loudly and compressed a blush. Shit, Law had sounded so needy. Kid couldn't deny that he did get slightly turned on when Law was kissing him. But...but...Law was a guy and Kid wasn't gay.
He bit his lip as he remembered the soft, hot pair of lips brushing against his. Begging for attention. How can one man sound so needy?
However Kid couldn't stop thinking of the way Law expected him to just have sex with him. No questions or even a atmosphere. Previously, Kid had wondered if Law slept around. Maybe it was true. He'd never seen the man with anyone. Yet the way he just sat on him and begun to roll his hips- Oh God, he needed to stop thinking about Law. He was driving himself crazy. This man was insane. Crazy and so fucking mind consuming. Kid remembered when they had fallen onto each other as he saw the deep grey eyes looking back into his, dare he say he did have a urge to...to do what?
Kid realized that his notebook was filled with small doodles. Even one of a car. Not only that, the professor had finished talking and all the students were beginning to move out the room. Kid growled. He'd spent all lesson thinking about that stupid man.
Storming his way though the crowds of students, Kid went to get something to eat so he could get his mind clear. Searching his pockets, he took out a short amount of money. It wasn't enough for something to eat but for a drink. A small drink but still a drink. The redhead begun his travel to the canteen. And when he was about to enter, two familiar men exit.
"Your a strange man Alex." Law laughed and Alex chuckled back as he finished his coffee. They'd ended up chatting like friends. Law had apologized for his attuide the other night and Alex accepted. One thing lead to another and they started to talk about Kid for a while.
"Same to you Law." Kid stood crossed armed when they realized he was stood in front of them. A scowl on his features. Alex nervously smiled and Law frowned. "Hey Kid."
"Hello Alex, Law." Kid said with a growl. His eyes heavily glared at Law at the man's dark frown. What was wrong with him? "Can I speak with you Alex, alone."
Alex was questioning why his brother was acting like a dick but after what Law had told him, he kind of understood. Yes, Law had mentioned trying to kiss Kid. Alex was just ashamed that his brother had denied such a hot man. Well...not really considering his brother was straight. But God was his brother a moron. With a sharp nod, followed his brother but made sure to wave to Law to wait. He wasn't going to let these two walk away from one another. "Yes Kid?"
"What are you doing with him?" Lectured Kid and he pointed to Law.
Alex joked and smugly purred, "I like to do something with him."
"ALEX!" Kid screamed.
"Why didn't you tell me he kissed you?" Alex voice was misleading. He sounded thrilled yet upset at the same time. Maybe he was upset because Kid hadn't told him and thrilled because Kid had someone...heck knows. Alex was confusing.
Giving up with his weird brother, Kid sighed in defeat, "It's not important Alex-"
"Oh really? Well go explain that to Law." Alex pointed back to the older man, "I'll take my leave."
Kid watched his brother leave before questioning him, "What is that suppose to mean?"
"Ask him." Alex again went to leave.
Kid's eyes matched with Law's in a heated stare. Both men wanted to say something. Question after question piling in their minds. But just as they were about to say something, those questions turned to muck. Law crossed his arms firmly. Moreover telling Kid he wasn't going anywhere. Kid on the other hand was stood with both hands in his pockets. Again, suggesting he felt nervous. But who could blame him. All yesterday night and today's morning his mind had been thinking about that kiss. More importantly, why he'd been kissed?
"Eustass." Law grunted out, breaking the silence between them. Kid flinched when the man said his surname. "My actions yesterday deserve a explanation." Actualy, Kid agreed with that. He really wanted to know why this man had kissed him. With a nod, Law continued to talk. "I mistaken your friendship as something more..."
"Something more?" Kid raised a naked brow.
Law hummed, "Yes. I thought you were flirting with me in physics-"
"FLIRTING?"
Law was starting to get annoyed with this man. If he'd known Kid was such a...pain in the ass he wouldn't of tried to have sex with him. Well...that could be taken in the wrong way. "Yes Eustass-ya. I apologise once more for my actions." He said defeated and took his hat off his over-heated head so he could run his finger through his hair.
Kid watched the man, slowly admitting he'd like Law without a hat. The man was very attractive. He'd understand why most women found him sexy. The slim but slightly muscled tanned body. The glistening grey eyes filled with mischief. Even the sly lips. Kid was the opposite to this man. "I swear, every day you apologize to me." He joked half-heartily.
"Well, I have to apologize a lot back at home so it must have become a habit." Law said with a smirk. Kid nearly felt something burst. Holy mother of God, Law's smirk was more than sly. It was sexy and seductive. Kid couldn't stop seeing how the simple smirk lit up the man's features. "Is something wrong Eustass-ya?"
"I-er-" Kid gulped. What was he doing? Law was a man! The same man who attempted to kiss him yesterday.
Law crooked a brow, "Well...I'll be on my way. I hope to see you around."
"Errr...yeah me too."
"Whats up with you?" Came a familiar voice causing Alex to swerve on his heals. He was met by the only girl his height in the entire school.
"Oh, hi Justice, it's nothing just thinking about stuff." Alex continued to walk, now accompanied by the dark haired girl. She was wearing a rather mischievous smile, and a pair of rather high wasted short shorts and a band t-shirt. "Hey, do you and Law want to come over for food tonight? Nothing fancy or anything, and you can stay as long as you like. Jesus, i feel like i'm in primary school asking if you want to sleep over."
"Yes~ that sounds fun. what are we going to do then, movie night? I've always wanted to have one of those." Justice jumped in joy and glomped onto the gingers arm with ferocity. Alex just chuckled at her before his eyes flew open in shock.
"You've never had a movie night!?"
"Nope."
"Shit, you haven't lived. you seen the avengers yet? or any of the iron man films?" Alex asked intruiged.
"I've seen the avengers but i'm not that into action films. They just blow up anything they can."
"Oh, so what, you like romance films then? or horror?" Alex raised a weary brow, he would not admittedly watch a wide selection of horror films because he thought he might die if he did.
"Romcoms are funny, some horrors are alright. Oh! Have you ever watched chucky?" Justice jumped again with excitement.
"No, never have, never will. No, no, no, no, no." Alex looked at her in disbelief. How does a girl this innocent find that kind of movie good?
"C'mon it's not even that scary."
"I beg to differ." Alex scoffed. "We need to think about this though what movie's does your brother like and what about Kid?"
"Well, Law likes gay movies, like gay movies. And i think he likes horror and romcoms as well. Oh and criminal type movies! He is obsessed with CSI."
"CSI is great, but i prefer NCIS. Anyway, how are you getting to the apartment, i should of told you this earlier but we don't have a car."
"Thats fine we'll get a lift." Justice smiled warmly as Alex scribbled down the address on her arm, he was so gentle. But she wished he had a bit of paper instead of using her skin. Oh well she had something to do for tonight that sounded lie fun.
"Great! Well, i'll see you two at ermm... six?"
"Sounds good."
"By the way, don't tell Kid." Alex winked and with that he left for the bus, waving behind him a Justice who was sighing rather loudly in awe.
