YAY! I'm so happy that I'm getting better at updating ^-^. ANYWAY I know I left you guys with a cliffie (I admit, that was very horrible and selfish of me T^T). But to make up for it, I decided to write you this extra long and very *blank* chapter (the blank is an adjective that may vary depending on the person).

Can't forget my thanks!:

BiddyAuthor: I didn't even update DFL this time around T^T. Anyway, thanks so much for the review, I'm trying to think of something smart and witty to say but I actually spent all my creativity out on a couple of things, I'm devoid of creativity! Sorry, so thanks for reviewing again. OH WAIT! Just thought of something, sorry for the cliff hangers (I know I know! I need help! SPECIAL help!) XD.

FlamingIceWolfGirl: Lol, so you don't think it's a cliffhanger? Or am I just misinterpreting something? What mollusk is in trouble O.O! Lol, jk I knew what you meant (spell check is a jerk to those who type fast)! Anyway, yup, Molly is in some deep trouble, let's read on and see what's next! (Of course I all ready know). Anyway, thanks for reviewing!

Tsubaki-San: I know, I know I need help! But...but...cliffhangers are like my secret lovers T^T! I don't think Molly can run, she's all tied up LITERALLY! Yup, Anissa is quite the caring person, too bad it gets her into dangerous situations!

MidnightxMusic: Aww, don't blame Chase! He's coming to the rescue lol XD. Yup, all rapists are germaphobes (they gotta watch where they unpack their baggage if you catch my drift o.O). Hmm...the fourth wall being magical...now i must do some research! I kinda used your steamy scene idea...which kinda makes this chapter REALLY pushing the T rating. I might have to start doing separate chapters in the M category! (I feel so dirty QAQ). Anyway, thanks for your always...*ahem* interesting reviews! I'll try and make this story even better! (Haha, Angela's likes it rough...OH MY xD).

GreenLiLyz: I have spring break after next week (still so far *has a look of despair*). Angela just says weird things sometimes (as you'll see in this chapter -_-). Jin has definitely found a great girl...let's hope she survives o.o JK...maybe...MOVING ON! And maybe it was his good self...maybe it wasn't (I'm totally trying to stay neutral with you guys here, I don't want to reveal anything in my thanks of all places)! Chase is almost there, he's so close! Look forward to it! And thanks for reviewing.

harvestmoonforever: Yo! Haha, I'm sorry for hogging the talent...even though it kinda feels like I'm not. It actually feels like I'm struggling for the covers at night while a lot of the other authors who are GREAT are sleeping soundly while bundled up o.O wow that was a weird and long drawn out simile. Oh, you like the new Wizard hm? Well, that's good...I think he might show up again somewhere (no guarantees)! Yup, Chase you're going to slow! Ha, Dylan is so hated...so why do I feel so prideful? Lol, anyway, I tried to update quickly (I even skipped DFL this time around *le gasp*). Thanks for reviewing!

Mishaay: Oh my, did I put something funny at the end? Hmm...maybe I should stop turning serious things into comedy (but then this wouldn't be a comedy/romance anymore)! Just say it, Wizard is completely off his rocker, he's just...gone! Where'd he go, I don't know...but! It seems to work just fine for the story lol. I didn't think it would catch so much attention so I'm feeling very giddy now xD. Thanks for reviewing!

missbabblingbrook21: Thanks so much for actually taking the time to review all those chapters. You're probably caught up by now (cuz I'm so slow). But yeah, there has been soo many memorable events throughout this story, I'm so glad you got to experience them. But if you're reading this now, it mans you're going to have to wait with the others now as they await for my next updates (which are painfully slow in getting out sometimes) SORRY! But thanks so much for reviewing, it means a lot and I'm happy to know how much you're enjoying the little story of mine. Hope you enjoy the chapter!

I hope you all enjoy it an equal amount! ^-^

Oh, and uh.

WARNING: This chapter may contain some "slightly" pushingtheT-ratingscenes (she says fastly) like...a little limey...or a lot limey...o_o...hi.

Let's proceed forward (let's call this chapter T+ -_-'''').

~Chase's POV~

"Excuse me, are you here for Portland High School's Reunion?" I heard Jin ask a group of people as I scanned the crowds of the third floor lobby (yes, this hotel has a third floor lobby).

I was looking for any sign of Molly's whereabouts. We weren't digging up any hints, and with every passing second I was set more on edge. Time was ticking, that was for sure.

The sight of Molly's limp body being carried into a hotel by two unknown men (more than likely Dylan and Preston) still hung like an anchor in my mind.

"All these people and the only thing we got is how Preston and Dylan look. You seem to be in deep thought over here." Jin said as he approached, a grim look cast over his face telling me that he didn't find anything new.

I began to blurt out all the questions in my head.

"I just don't understand. How did they get her? What did they do to get her in the state she was in? What exactly are they planning on doing to my Molly!" The last question was more like an accusation that left me with a bad feeling.

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know and did you just say your Molly?" Jin said with a smirk.

Glad to see he was still using his sense of humor.

"No. Let's go." I sighed.

We proceeded to wander between the lobbies that ranged from the first to the sixth floors.

"Oh, I don't remember you going to our school. what's your name cutie?" One girl asked me.

"I didn't go to your school. Excuse me, but I'm looking for someone." I said, prying away from the girl's eyes.

"Yoohoo! Hey there handsome! Wanna come to our hotel room!" A group of girls called over to me.

"If you know where Dylan Sarrant is then I might consider it." I grumbled.

Jin glanced at me with a bit of concern.

"I don't think this is good for your playboy image." He relayed.

I looked toward him as if he just told me he wanted to be a clown instead of a doctor.

"Does it look like I'm worried about that right now! I'm not even a playboy." I sighed.

"Relax, I'm trying to spread a little light on the situation."

"This is serious Jin! Who knows what they could be doing to her? Molly is already scarred, I couldn't stand it if-" I felt Jin's hand pat me on the shoulder.

"I'm worried too, Chase. Right now I'm worried for four people. Molly's with men that probably mean to do her some harm. Anissa is with Angela and both of them are with Wizard who, by the sound of it, isn't acting like himself so Goddess knows what's happening over there. And I'm worried for you Chase. How are you going to react if we find her just a little too late to prevent something happening? Are you going to blame yourself?"

The thought of us "getting to her too late" never crossed my mind. I didn't think about what they could do to her during this time. What would I do if I got to her and I saw something...

"We're going to get to her before it happens." I growled before turning to face Jin.

He gave me a bewildered look before he grinned confidently.

"And if we don't?" He asked.

"Then we're gonna let hell rain over those guys and personally beat their asses." I declared.

"That's exactly what I like to hear." Jin laughed.

"Hey, you two over there!" Someone yelled to us and we turned to see a guy and a girl that we had talked to about 5 minutes ago.

"You were asking about Dylan Sarrant and Preston Drune, right?" The guy asked.

"Yeah, we did." I responded.

"Well, we just saw Preston going down to the first floor lobby." The girl said.

Jin and I glanced at each other warily.

"Did you see anyone with him?" Jin asked.

The girl shook her head but the guy seemed to perk up as if he remembered something.

"Oh, wait. This totally slipped my mind. I remember that I did see Preston and Dylan coming in a little while before you asked me the first time. They had...Molly Withard with them. I think they went up to Dylan's room. I wonder why she was with them...she looked like she passed out..." The guy looked at us and he seemed to slowly be getting the picture, as did the girl.

"I...was wondering why they invited Molly back. They're planning on doing something bad to her...aren't they?" A look of sympathy crossed her face.

"We hope we'll find her before then." Jin stated.

The guy gave a displeased look.

"About Molly, she was never the class favorite. But a lot of us thought that she never deserved the type of treatment she got."

I gave a slight sigh of annoyance.

"You can't take back the past, there's no use in lingering on it. Right now, Molly needs help, so if you guys can help us get to her then you're all right with me." I said.

The guy nodded before giving us a determined look.

"We don't know which room Dylan is staying in, but we'll start searching for you guys. As for Preston, if you take the stairs you'll be able to catch him."

Jin gave a thankful nod to them before we started for the stairs, jumping down a flight at a time.

I practically burst through the door leading to the lobby, some people jumped at the sudden noise.

My eyes scanned the crowds, I can honestly say I felt like a predator on the prowl for its prey.

And then I saw him.

His appearance was spot on, muscular build that I related to looking much like Luke's, green eyes and dark hair. If that wasn't the guy I wasn't looking for then this guy needed an ass kicking for deceiving me so well.

I gave a little nod to Jin who followed my stare, he immediately spotted who I was looking at and we both strode calmly through the crowd.

Before our guy made it to the exit, we quietly took him under the arms and steered him away from the door. I felt him tense up, getting ready to struggle.

"Don't cause a scene, it wouldn't be good for you." Jin said with a quiet voice as we made our way back to the stairwell.

"Wha-who are you guys?" He asked back.

"David Hernandez?" Jin asked.

I rose an eyebrow at the name.

"No. My name is Preston Drune!" Preston hissed back.

"Good, cuz you're who we're looking for." Jin responded with a smirk.

I let out a chuckle at his trick.

"Damn..." Preston huffed.

Upon getting back to the stairwell, Jin pushed Preston up to the wall. I tried to hide the concern in my face and replace it with a serious and calm expression.

"Look, I don't know what you guys want!" Preston shouted in anger.

"Don't you?" Jin asked and gave a nice smile.

"I don't!"

"Come now Preston, we just want you to tell us where the girl is." Jin said darkly.

"What girl?" Preston diverted his eyes.

"You know which girl."

"Give me an image, maybe it'll jog my memory." Preston let out a laugh.

I couldn't take his little run around anymore.

"Just tell me where the hell you have Molly." I growled through gritted teeth.

His eyes widened at her name.

"I don't know who that is." He spat.

"Bullshit!" I slammed my hand down on the metal railing. The sound reverberated through the emptiness of the area.

Preston looked towards the door behind me.

"You're scaring the lady." He stated.

Jin and I turned for only a second, but that gave Preston enough time to give Jin a punch to the face before sprinting up the staircases.

Jin threw his broken glasses to the floor and clenched his fists.

"Son of a bitch." He growled before taking off after Preston.

I bounded after them after a moment, hearing their footsteps pounding up the stairs at a fast rate. I skipped two stairs at a time as I ran up and was able to see Jin after a while. The sound of a door slamming open rang through the corridor.

"Floor Twenty-one!" Jin shouted down to me as I saw him round the next stairs and slam through the door as well.

When I reached the door and stepped out into the hallway, I couldn't tell which way the two had went.

I cursed myself for having such a slow reaction to the situation and decided to run to my right, in hopes I'd catch sight of them.

That's when I heard the most heart-stopping thing in my life.

"NO!" Molly's desperate voice called out in bloody murder.

~Molly's POV~

"If you stop struggling as much, I might take off your blindfold." Dylan's sickly sweet voice rang through my ears. He had all ready grown tired of the "nervous game", so he moved on to the nitty gritty.

Now here I was, lying on what I could only identify to be a bed. He untied my feet so I was fighting as hard as I could, kicking with all my might in hopes that he might get annoyed with me and give up.

I think he was getting close to being irritated, so I continued to struggle.

I suddenly felt his hand move to my covered mouth. He pulled on the cloth that covered my mouth and tore it off. I was prepared to scream but something warm suddenly pressed against my lips. It took me a moment to register that Dylan was kissing me. Tears that were ready to fall were stopped by the blindfold. I whimpered and felt weak and beaten by his show of control over me, as if he had command over my very being. It was grotesque, the feel of his lips was. My heart beat so fast, it felt like it was trying to come out of my chest. The fear inside me was telling me that this wasn't going to end well, so I might as well do whatever came to mind.

Instincts told me to kick him off, so I struggled hard and finally got my knees up high enough to push my feet hard on his abdomen. Dylan broke the kiss and only laughed at my feeble attempts.

"Are you trying out some crazy position or something? That's really not in your character." He chuckled out.

I kept working my way up and was able to get my feet to just below his chest. That's when I felt him start to close down on top of me. He was moving closer. I felt his wandering hands crawl across me, causing me to shudder with disgust and trepidation with each movement he lay upon my body. As his hands searched me, I became more alarmed by the touch, when I suddenly felt them wander too far.

"NO!" I screeched in a panic.

At the same time, I heard someone burst in through the door.

"Dylan! Some guys looking for Molly just interrogated me in the hallway! We need to get outta here!" Preston's voice boomed through the room. After that came the sound of someone crashing into the room and the sound of something hitting flesh and bone worked its way into my hearing range.

Who was looking for me? Had Kevin called the police? Well, whatever the case, there was someone new here.

"What the hell!" Dylan shouted, he was distracted enough for me to successfully give him a swift and hard kick to his solar plexus.

The sound of Dylan's breath escaping him was like music to my ears as I crawled out from underneath him. Unfortunately, I wasn't quick enough and Dylan recovered too quickly. He caught me by my hair, and before I knew it, a hard hand came down upon the side of my face.

It stung horribly, and hurt even worse. Dylan had just slapped me. I just lied there on the bed and began to sob quietly into the sheets, just begging that whoever was here was a savior of some sort, someone to whisk me away and back to safety.

The sounds of the struggle between Preston and the other person was no longer audible to me, like it just cut short. I didn't know why they stopped fighting. Was it over? Another set of footsteps sounded through my senses and was walking towards me and Dylan. Dylan's looming body quickly jumped off of me.

"What the hell did you just do to her?" The person asked Dylan. It was a man, and his voice, albeit violent and angered, felt like a gust of relief.

"Dammit...what are you doing here?" Dylan said angrily.

The man didn't answer him, instead, I heard a fist connecting with flesh and bone, it resembled that of the struggle between Preston and the other person who were further away. I took this opportunity and inched my way off the bed, I felt my hands scratch against a corner and started rubbing the cloth that bound my hands on it. Trying desperately to free myself as my rescuer took care of Dylan.

It took a little while, but the cloth finally gave way and I was able to get my hands free. They were shaking with so much fear, but they were free nonetheless. I noticed that the sounds in the room had died down save for a bit of shuffling here and there. My shaky hands found their way to the knot of my blindfold and began to work with the cloth around my eyes, it became looser the more I fiddled with it. The sound of someone talking quietly filled my ears and relieved me, if only by a bit.

I heard someone walking towards me and crouch down as the blindfold was slowly but surely beginning to fall down; subconsciously, I flinched from their touch.

"...It's okay...Jin's on the phone with the police right now. I'll tell him to get a female officer..." The man said with a bit of defeat in his voice.

Jin? As in Doctor Jin? I worked the blindfold off my face fully and saw Chase standing up from me, averting his violet hues away from me in a solemn way.

Chase began to call over to who I can only assume was Jin, but I didn't bother to listen to a word he said. Instead, I let my mind and eyes linger on his form. He was dressed differently, his hair in a ponytail, he seemed to fit the city-boy look well. I don't know how, but he seemed to be captivating me with his presence more than usual. Butterflies filled my stomach. Had Chase...come for me? Why?

"Aren't you...mad?" I muttered out. Chase's handsome eyes snapped back to me, looking worried and surprised.

"Aren't you mad at me? Because I said that...you'd get in the way?" I started to shiver and Chase gave an alarmed look.

"I don't get it...did you come for me? Even after I..."

Reluctantly, Chase pushed a strand of hair out of my face and cupped my left check gingerly where I had been slapped not too long ago.

"I don't care about that. Are you all right?" He asked.

He said he didn't care, but then why did he look so hurt?

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you! I wanted to protect you from..." I sniffed.

"I said I don't care about that! It's my fault for making a big deal about it. Because of me, you went off on your own and...it's just my fault." He sighed.

"Are you okay?" Chase asked again. The thought of what just happened to me bombarded my mind and I felt the tears starting to flow out.

Chase began to move closer so he could pull me into him, but I put my hand to his chest and pushed him away.

"Wh-"

"I'm sorry. I feel really dirty right now. I really wwould rather that you not touch me because..." I choked out.

"What did he do!" Chase demanded.

I didn't want to tell him, I didn't want him to look at me with disgust when he found out I was touched so...explicitly.

"Hey..." Chase called to me. I looked up and saw his eyes searching mine.

"What did he do?" He asked again, quieter. His voice was calming, even though it sounded sad and dejected. Where was he right now? Maybe, I'm just too far away...

I could feel something slipping from me, making the room get dimmer as I looked around.

"Can you hear me?" Chase's voice sounded blurred and concerned.

"Her body's gone through a lot of stress..." Jin started but the rest of his words were lost by me. A feeling of temporary relief filled me entirely, making it easy to slip off into the pitch black that was leading me to a dream state.

X X X

"Yeah...yeah...I don't know...She didn't tell me...no...I don't want to make her talk about it...Jin got a call from Anissa...they're back at their hotel, apparently whatever problem there was seemed to have been fixed...yeah...I guessed as much, is she upset?" I awoke to the murmured sound of Chase's voice, he might've been on the phone. I tilted my head and looked to my side, the dresser that had my clothes in it was staring back at me. Chase had taken me back to my hotel room.

"Still, tell her I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to...did they?...That's good...yeah, it might take her mind off of things...Yolanda, I'm going to care about her regardless of my feelings..."

My heart sank, he'll care about me regardless of his feelings towards Maya, isn't that what he meant?

"I didn't want to hurt her you know...I wouldn't have if you hadn't gave me the extra push...I don't know, let me check." I heard footsteps coming towards me and I shut my eyes fast. I could feel Chase's gaze land on me, he stared at me for a few moments before walking back out, leaving the door he had came through open ever so slightly.

"...Yeah, she's just pretending to be asleep." Chase said loudly enough, obviously for me to hear.

"I'll see you in the morning, bye." I heard him hang up the phone before he came back to where I was.

"Stop pretending, you're horrible at it." He said, I didn't open my eyes, I kept them shut.

Chase gave out a sigh and I felt the bed shift slightly as he crawled on top of it. I kept my calm as he lay there next beside me.

"You don't want to talk to me?" He asked and my heart cried out. Of course I wanted to talk to him.

I opened my eyes and saw Chase staring right back at me, his head lying on the pillow, letting his strawberry-blonde locks spill over the pillow sheet.

"Well?" He seemed to urge.

There was a light of something in his eyes. It looked like pity, maybe? I didn't want to see that, I really didn't. I turned away and almost immediately I felt him wrap his arms around me. I jumped at the feel, trying not to melt into his touch.

"Don't turn your back on me anymore." He sighed and buried his face into the crook of my neck.

I was on the verge of melting.

"I'm worried about you." He muttered, as if he was embarrassed.

"You don't have to stay with me...I'm sure that if you leave now Maya won't be as upset." I said, trying to sound a little cheery.

Chase sighed, his breath close to my ear. I jumped at the feeling, I don't think he realized just what he was doing. My lip found it's way to it's usual spot once more.

"Hey, could you listen to a story for me?" He asked.

"Do I have a choice..." I mumbled, but he could hear me loud and clear.

"Aren't I supposed to be the sarcastic ass?"

I stifled a giggle.

"I'll listen..." I responded.

~Angela's POV~

"Would you like to say something now?" Wizard asked me.

I played it smart and stayed silent. What else could a girl backed up against the arm of a couch do?

Anissa was creeping horribly slow towards the thermos of coffee even after I had silently pleaded with her to not to. Jin was definitely going to have my ass.

"Why so silent all of a sudden?" Wizard eyed me accusingly, as if I had just spit in his coffee...which I wish he would drink all ready.

"I just thought that a man of your stature would really appreciate it if he weren't talked back to." I answered.

"Angela, do you really think that you should be mocking me right now?"

I shook my head.

"Then stop."

I stood completely still as I let Wizard stare at me, how long was he going to keep me trapped? I kept glancing over at Anissa when Wizard's eyes wandered away from my face. However, my efforts to keep an eye on her were in vain as Wizard noticed my eyes and snapped his attention towards Anissa.

"That's right...you did bring a friend, didn't you?" Wizard seemed to glower, his eyes were literally lighting up with something that scared me into a panic.

"Wizard, NO!" I shouted, he glanced back at me.

"That's right, I said no! Don't involve her! She was just leaving anyways!" I told him as he pushed me tighter against the back of the couch.

"Angela?" Anissa questioned.

Wizard searched my stern features before turning back to Anissa.

"Hey, if you were just about to leave then you better leave now." Wizard warned, the door to the room opened, obviously by Wizard's will.

"Wait, I can't just leave you." Anissa seemed to plead.

"Yes, you can. It'll be very easy since you don't really know me. Look, I understand, your like a perfect match for Jin because you're really caring...but you just can't be a perfect match for him if you're caught in something really bad." I glanced at Wizard.

"I promise, I can take care of this problem myself." My voice rang strong, though I wasn't so sure of myself.

"But...Angela..." Anissa gave a fleeting look to the door.

"What am I supposed to tell your sister? Isn't that who Jin and Chase went to get?" Anissa questioned.

"Molly's all ready in a bad situation...don't tell her anything. Anissa, I promise I'll be okay. Besides..." I looked Wizard deep in the eyes, he was growing tired and annoyed, I could tell.

"Wizard wouldn't do something to hurt me gravely." I stated.

Anissa stared at me, she more than likely saw the look in my eyes, in fact I'm sure she did because she didn't speak another word and left the room, closing the door behind her.

I heaved a sigh of relief before my face was brought to look at Wizard, his focus was now all on me.

"If you had let her stay, I would've been distracted by her...why'd you let her go?" He asked, seemingly disappointed like a lion who got his dead prey taken away.

"It's a little something called bravery and compassion. Why don't you try the latter out sometimes?" I snarled at him unintentionally. But let's face it, he was being a total jerk.

"Hmmm...compassion? Why don't I?" He questioned himself with a smile that really made me think that I should just keep my mouth shut.

Wizard's arms closed in around me, pinning my waist between both of his arms. Was he not afraid that I was probably able to grab his head or anything else? I wanted to shy away or go crawl underneath a rock. The way Wizard was looking at me had me embarrassed as all get out.

"With a face like that, how can I stay angry at you?" Wizard murmured. He didn't hesitate to move our bodies closer to one another.

Caution: Limey part starts here! Not for the iffy minded! *It won't go but so far and it's just for plot purposes people*

"How about I show you how much compassion I can have instead?" As he said this Wizard leaned his head down, letting his lips linger just above the skin of my neck.

"What the-when did we enter the erotica business!" I exclaimed before he started planting painfully slow kisses on my neck.

It sent fire through my body, Wizard was most definitely off his rocker!

"You listen here buddy! I'm not that type of girl!" I started warning him. His response was to kiss a bit faster.

"That didn't mean you could go faster!" I shouted, my vision blurred from being so flustered.

His lips touched a spot that sent me into a shock of multiple feelings. I muffled my heated breathing with an "mmph" that didn't go unnoticed by the predator in front of me.

He didn't say a word, only smirked and pressed his lips there once more. Yeah, I was definitely starring in some sort of whacked up erotica.

"He-hey! Listen, I've gotta story for you." I said, trying to distract him.

"Really?" He asked, his voice dark and...I want to say seductive but I don't.

"Yeah." I nodded.

"What a coincidence, I've got one for you too." He replied before I was suddenly pushed backwards. Note, I had previously mentioned I was backed up against the side of the couch, well now I fell onto the couch. And as cliche as it usually is, Wizard found his way on top of me.

I was splayed out on the soft piece of furniture, Wizard's form right above mine, pushing ever closer. The braid in his hair was pulled down by gravity of course, as was the many gems and necklaces hanging from his neck. The tone in his eyes gave him an almost playful look. Yeah, I'm sure he wanted to play something.

"Okay mister, you keep pushing your luck and you're going to find yourself in a time out!" I warned him, weakly might I add.

"That doesn't sound too bad coming from you." He purred.

Wait...did he really just purr?

"What is going on here! I thought you needed coffee! I'm not coffee!"

He opened his mouth to respond.

"NO! Don't say it, I know what you're thinking! Just don't say it!" I exclaimed.

"Are you telling me what to do?" He asked with a glare in his eyes.

"And what if I am?" I demanded, right then, he crushed his lips against mine.

It felt heated and more passionate than I thought. It felt like his lips were fire against mine, dancing and playing on every centimeter of my own. Where did he learn to kiss like that? I could feel myself running out of breath. He pulled away and my throat felt like a dried up spring. I spotted the thermos and got an instant idea.

Wizard was leaning back in but I put up a hand to stop his lips. He didn't like that too much but he gave me a little time to explain.

"I'm getting kind of thirsty." I told him.

He raised an eyebrow in question.

"I mean...well...I was just wondering how much you'd like it if my lips tasted like a drink you like." I hinted, blushing at my own comment.

If there was one thing that I could appreciate, it was the lust that Wizard held right now. If not for that, he'd be way too smart and would realize what I was thinking instead of reaching over and handing me the thermos.

I smiled shyly at him as I drank straight from the thermos, the coffee had cooled and was warm and bitter. It smelled almost exactly like Wizard. I really loved that smell. After I drank some, I made sure to leave a drop on my lip and made sure I had drank enough so my whole mouth was developed with the after taste. When I pulled the thermos from my lips it was immediately taken from me and put aside once more.

I expected him to kiss me again, but instead he went on in doing an action that made my heart leap and stop and shudder and...all of that. Wizard had taken his tongue and dragged it against my lips as if he were trying to get the full taste of the coffee, then brought his teeth to nibble down on my mouth's soft skin. It surprised enough to make me let out a short gasp, I wasn't quick enough to close my mouth as Wizard helped himself to exploring that as much as he liked to explore the night sky.

Now where the hell did he learn to kiss like that!

I felt my body began to heat up, and I'm sure he could feel it too. The cloak fell off of my upper body in a swift movement of Wizard's wrist. He removed his black shirt, revealing his dark skin and toned body. Did Wizard training require a certain amount of muscle? I wouldn't say that he was Luke built, but he was definitely toned.

"Um, hold on..." I murmured, feeling highly insecure now. I tried covering my own body but he lifted my arms out of the way. He was intent on proceeding in kissing my neck once more.

I was beginning to wonder if my trick hadn't worked.

The kisses on my neck began to recede slowly, gradually stopping until Wizard only hovered above me. I only needed to take one look at Wizard to see that he was not only back to normal, but he was shocked silly by the sight he saw before him. I was basically splayed out on the couch, right on top of his cloak. He saw his shirt on the floor and seemed to widen his eyes as if he was beginning to remember what he'd done.

HEY: Limey part has ended (I'm so sorry for this obscene little scene, it's for plot purposes T^T).

"Wizard? Please tell me that's you." I said pleadingly. Wizard pulled his hands from off my wrists and his eyes looked like a deer caught in headlights.

"I'm sorry..." He muttered putting his head in one hand before beginning to pull all the way away from me.

"Wait." I said, but he continued to get up. I could see a shame in his eyes, a regret.

"Wait!" I pulled onto his torso and he looked at me surprised.

"It's okay, I know you didn't mean to. I'm not angry. I'm just really glad you're back to normal." He stared at me in shock, not saying a word.

"I know you don't see me like that, don't worry...just don't pull away from me, I don't want you to think that you have to separate yourself from me." I told him.

"Angela...it's not that...I..." He seemed anxious and worried but some relief was given to him.

We heard the door knob turn just then.

"Hey Angela! Winry started waking up a few minutes ago so we got to come ho-" Kasey stopped short and Winry peered in right behind him.

"-me...is this how you got Wizard back to normal?"

"YOU PERV!" Winry shouted, Kasey stopping her from stomping over. I quickly re-covered myself with Wizard's coat. I scooted out from underneath Wizard and sat beside him on the couch, even though he still looked very troubled by the situation.

"You put a spell on me so you could get her alone? You're horrible!" She called.

"Winry-"

"What do you mean...back to normal...?" Wizard asked.

"You went all crazy on us and Winry passed out so I had to go to the hospital with her. Angela went to find a cure for you...I guess she found it."

"Kasey!" Winry scolded. He held up his hands in defense, one of which held a bag.

"What's with the bag?" I questioned.

"Oh, yeah. I picked up some medicine for your burn." Kasey said and pulled some medicinal stuff out of the plastic bag.

"...Burn...?" Wizard looked toward me as he put his shirt on.

"Yeah, the one on her leg where you-"

"Kasey!" I gestured to Kasey to shut up but the damage had all ready been done.

Wizard was hesitant with his actions, but he went on with reluctantly reaching over to me. He pulled up the cloaks bottom and there on my leg sat the burn I had gotten from when he had thrown the coffee. He looked like he went into total shock. He darted up, murmuring an apology as he turned to go to the bedroom in which Kasey and him shared.

It took me a moment to process what was going on, but when I did, I immediately hopped up after him.

"Wait!" I called, trying to pull the door open; however, he had locked it shut.

"Wizard!" I called again, there was no answer.

The room went silent.

"Great, now where do I sleep?" Kasey huffed.

I stared at him like he was crazy.

"On the couch you jerk!" Winry said and threw a pillow at his face.

Just then, the phone rang.

Kasey got up from his playing dead position and answered the phone.

"Gallows hotel room. How may I help you?" He used his feminine voice.

Kasey suddenly chuckled.

"No...it's me. How ya doin' Doc Jin?"

He was smiling like a fool for a long while until his face turned serious.

"What? What happened to Molly?" He asked. His eyes grew wide at the information that Jin was giving him.

"Well, is she all right?" Kasey asked.

I looked toward the phone in worry.

"That's good..."

Kasey glanced over at me.

"Yeah, she's okay. So you brought her the coffee?"

Kasey was silent for a while longer.

"Geez, I can't thank you and Chase enough for watching out for my sisters."

Kasey ran a hand through his hair and gave me a look as he continued to hold his ear to the phone.

"What about...?"

A slight pause.

"...I couldn't tell you...I understand...no, I'll let Angela take care of that." Kasey continued.

"Okay, well you get some rest tonight. I think you deserve it. See you soon." Kasey sighed before hanging up the phone.

"Well?" Winry asked, a bit of concern on her face.

"It's about Molly...she's been in a situation." Kasey drawled as he stared at me.

"I just know she got kidnapped, that's about it. Is she okay?" I asked, torn between worrying about Molly or worrying about Wizard.

Kasey went on to explain the situation, it seemed Jin and Chase had succeeded in getting Molly out of the situation. But as far as it went, it seemed that Molly hadn't told Jin what had happened to her during her period of captivity.

I sat down on the couch, wrapping myself in Wizard's coat a little tighter.

In this situation, I'm completely useless. Molly is with Chase, but something's wrong and she won't tell Jin what it is. Wizard just holed himself up in his room and won't come out.

"Angela, you should get some sleep." Winry nudged me, I looked up and saw unabashed concern adorning her features for once.

"...I guess..." I mumbled into the palms of my hands.

Why was our messed up life tumbling even further down the hill?

Okay, so...sorry about the lime my innocent viewers. But as you can see, it caused a major plot turn, so I hope you guys don't stop reading. (I promise to keep it as clean as I can QAQ). I'm really not dirty but...if I had to do it for plots sake then it will be done and it will be done well! I don't skimp out on details because then my writing style would come crashing down!

Thanks so much you guys, leave a review and tell me what you thought!

Love you! MWUAH!
