Lover's Sacrifices Chapter 6, Stinging Feelings
Alibaba swiped through Morgiana's texts about the suicide that happened yesterday. She started spamming if he was alright when he told her he was at the theater when it took place. He smiled and answered that nothing happened to him thankfully. But the image of the dead man returned. He still doesn't know if he was held responsible for the incident and grew guilty again. But rumors spread that it was a murder so it left him confused. The cuts on the man did seem convincing however he pondered why the police didn't investigate. Maybe it was unlikely for a murderer to be on the loose, so they settled that it was a suicide to not worry anyone. He moaned and curled up in his blanket. His ears twitched slightly as he heard the doorbell. "Fuck..." He mumbled and threw a pillow over his face. Voices were heard from the front of the house and soon followed into his room. The blanket lightly went up, "Sweetheart he's here." Alibaba took a quick glance at Kouha then yanked it back down.
Kouha placed his hands on his hips, "Don't be a child now." He grabbed the blanket and tossed it on the floor. Alibaba hissed and covered his face using the pillow, "No." Kouha gave a grunt seeing the male like this. He snatched the pillow as well and threw it aside. Alibaba sat up and pouted, "Fine." He looked up seeing a feminine blond man he had seen before. He remembered Aladdin introducing him when they bumped into the library the other day. The blue eyed male wore a white long sleeved shirt and dark grey pants that brought out his feminine features. When a bag caught Alibaba's eye he sweated. "Hello Titus," He tried to keep his cool. The light blond waved, "Hello Alibaba! I'm just going to check your arm so don't panic." He gently lifted Alibaba's injured arm, studying it. He ran his hand around the upper part where it hurt. Once he was done he clapped his hands together, "Done! Thankfully it's just a minor injury so I suggest placing ice on it and resting." Alibaba blinked in surprise. He exhaled, "Okay. Thank you."
Titus smiled, "Anytime, and no need to pay me. A friend of Aladdin's is a friend of mine too, so I'll be more than happy to do checkups for free. And I promise I won't scare you with tools."
The older male crossed his arms, "I swear I'll get Aladdin for telling you about my fear of doctors. But I am grateful that you won't be making it worse." Titus giggled and picked his bag up. He turned his heel to leave the room but Cassim appeared in the doorway. "Hey Kouha, Judal is- Whoa hello nurse!" He scanned Titus with interest. The younger man's cheeks turned red.
He made a nervous smile, "H-Hello..."
Cassim walked up to him, "What's your name cutie?" Alibaba snickered seeing him flirt with Titus. Cassim is a good guy overall, but isn't exactly perfect with picking up guys. He can put up more of a hilarious show with his sweet talk and horrible charm. Kouha sat beside Alibaba and rested his head on his shoulder. Together the couple observed the dreaded man amusingly. Titus messed with a lock of his hair, "Titus..." Cassim hung an arm around him, "Cassim. You know we can go out and hang sometime if you want. I want to get to know your pretty face a bit more." Titus hung his eyebrows low and bit his lip. He moved his eyes away from the gold ones, "I...don't know what to say...This is unexpecting…"
"Oi where's the fucking chocolate cupcakes?! And who's this chick?" A familiar red eyed man hung on the doorway. The random entrance grabbed the attention of the others in the room. Alibaba thought that Titus's eyes sparkled that moment. The twinkling eyes were of a princess catching the sight of an attractive prince. The bashful man's blush deepened and he adverted his gaze. "I-I'm a boy. I'm Titus, pleasure to meet you..." He said shyly. The braided haired man groaned, "I know, and you are just like Kouha. The good looking peeps are always men. That sucks, I was about to ask you out too but yeah." Alibaba can't picture Judal asking Titus out on a date, that's something out of the ordinary for a guy like him. He's always a stuck up jerk who doesn't look like someone who is interested in romance. Cassim pulled Titus closer, "Good, then we won't have to be fighting over him." Judal cocked an eyebrow. He went up to Titus and took him, "Give him some air you thirsty weirdo. You can't just be up in his grill like this. Besides it looks like he's uncomfortable."
They took turns snatching the poor blond from each other's hands. Alibaba and Kouha frowned deeply, shifting their eyes between the two arguing men. Harshly Titus was jerked side to side by them pulling his arms towards their chests at each tug. The poor male's arms would be torn off if they won't calm down. It's impossible to maintain a steady atmosphere whenever his brother and angry roommate stand next to each other. He doesn't want his visitor to get shoved into it at all so he stopped them angrily. He raised his hands, "Guys! Leave him alone, no need to push him around like this." Both older men rolled their eyes and released him.
Titus rubbed his head and giggled, "Thanks Alibaba," He turned to Cassim, "You seem like a nice man, but I'm sorry...I...like someone else."
It seemed like a brick struck Cassim on the head. But he nodded in understanding despite his disappointed face. Titus moved his attention to Judal, "It's a pity you don't like men. I was going to accept your offer." He winked at him, getting the black haired man to blink. He bid his farewells and left the room, getting glomped by Aladdin right away. Judal slumped his shoulders and flushed a little. Cassim crossed his arms, "Shit you're lucky. Seems like you'll be a homo magnet now, eh?"
Judal turned to the door, "Already am, believe me..."
When he left the rest of the men busted out laughing. Alibaba had no idea how that all plays out, but will be predictable to visualize. Well at least he and Aladdin are grabbing other's affections which can lead them closer to their matches quickly. This something that is rare to see for the brothers. It bothered him how they could achieve this by sitting and having people automatically fawn over them. It could just be their traits of what makes them who they are. He will always adore that about them since they can stick to their beliefs while he can have a hard time finding his own at times. Alibaba rested his head on Kouha's lap, "Poor guy, Aladdin gets the babes, and he gets the guys!" Kouha combed his hair, receiving a low purr. He paused at the Individual lock of blond hair and twirled his fingers around it gently. A hand also massaged his lover's chest getting Alibaba to fall into heaven.
"I feel sort of bad, doesn't seem like Judal is getting a chick anytime soon. Oh yeah, and I heard you two yesterday. Kouha you're pretty loud," Cassim plopped on the bed. The pink haired male's body heated madly. He stuttered along with Alibaba and couldn't find an appropriate response. The blond only smacked Cassim's leg, "Pervert! Wait if you heard did Aladdin too?"
"Yeah, but he bought an excuse Judal made saying that you two were eating ice cream."
"Lamest excuse I've ever heard. Now I got what he meant with that. Didn't exactly understood it at first…"
Kouha's phone rang in his pocket. He pulled it out and pressed a button. He frowned when he held it up to his ear. The call didn't last long and he fell silent once he put the phone away. Alibaba stared up at him in worry, "Something wrong?" Kouha hugged him tightly, "I have to return home. Family business." He leaned and kissed him on the lips. The two shared a long passionate kiss, embracing. Cassim made his way out of the room when things steamed up. He nicely closed the door on his way out. Kouha hooked his legs around Alibaba's back, "Sweetheart is this how we're going to say goodbye from now on?" Alibaba gave Kouha's neck a nibble, "Yes, if you want." Again he caught himself talking in a sexy tone. Ever since the bathroom incident he's been thinking more and more about touching Kouha. Possibly getting into a sexual relationship with him too. He thought it was too soon, but he feels like he can't stand it. He loves him so much, and needs to show his love for him like this.
"I do...I love it when you touch me," Kouha said seductively. Alibaba blushed seeing the male's alluring eyes. He removed Kouha's grey shirt and laid him on the bed. He sucked on the soft skin making Kouha pant lightly. He used a hand to roam the skinny body. His tongue trailed down to his chest where he explored it. He didn't miss any spot and moved up to meet Kouha's lips. Kouha moaned and inserted his tongue in his mouth. The two allowed their tongues to thrash about, fighting for dominance. Alibaba's hand teasingly touched Kouha's growing bulge. He earned a slight moan from the other that shifted a little. The blond pressed harder and Kouha removed his lips from his. He played with the blond's chest, "You're such a little tease." He brought Alibaba's body down so both erections touch. Alibaba slightly rubbed his erection on his feeling strange. The more he moved the more his cock grew hotter. It felt really good, and Kouha was enjoying it too. His cute noises were louder and he closed his eyes in bliss.
He opened one eye, "Sw-Sweetie? Can...you bite my neck?" Alibaba smiled and lowered his mouth on his neck. He sunk his teeth softly on it, licking it slightly. "H-Harder please..." Kouha begged. Alibaba bit a little rougher. When the pink eyed man wanted him to bite even more hard he realized something. Could he be a masochist? Alibaba obeyed and finally he was satisfied. His breathing became unsteady and a little blood leaked from his neck. Alibaba quickly licked it up until there was no more. Kouha buried his face in his chest, "Shit...I'm going to cum..." Did he just swear? Despite him swearing Alibaba found it cute. He grinded faster until they both came. Alibaba collapsed on Kouha ignoring the mess in his pants. "I love you..." Kouha breathed out. Alibaba smirked, "I love you too..." They nuzzled each other's cheeks lovingly. Alibaba gave Kouha another pair of pants before he left, willing to clean the other.
When the male said his farewells to the others and left the roommates started teasing the blond. Aladdin tilted his head, not understanding what was happening. He questioned, "Uh...were you eating strawberry ice cream again?" Judal patted his head, "Of course ch-"
"Then how come I didn't see any ice cream when I looked in the room? And you guys were on each other doing weird stuff!"
Judal's eye twitched. He didn't know how to get out of this one. He gestured to Cassim and Alibaba for help. Alibaba sighed and knelt next to Aladdin, "Alright. It's about time you know about this. Apparently your brother won't hold responsibility to tell you so I will. You see..." As Alibaba explained the blue haired boy's smile lowered. He made a horrified face in the end and hugged the red eyed man. "My life is ruined..." He shook.
Judal smacked Alibaba upside the head, "Stupid, this is why I was waiting to tell him so that doesn't make me irresponsible! Now look at him! He's suffering! Or you just explained so fucking badly!" Aladdin didn't move a muscle which made him a statue.
Cassim lifted a cigarette up, "You did good brother. It will take a while for him to get used to it though. Everyone goes through it." The blond snatched it and tossed it over to the garbage can in the kitchen. He missed, making him groan in disappointment.
Judal picked Aladdin up and hung him over his shoulder. He waved, "Retreating to my lair if you need me. Need to calm this kid down." He disappeared into his room and Alibaba thought he flipped him off. He shrugged and lifted his hand out towards Cassim. The dreaded man rolled his eyes and dropped a box of cigarettes in his hand. Alibaba attempted to make it to the trash again but it only struck the edge. He swore and kicked his heel. Cassim chuckled and pat his shoulder, "I'm proud you are getting low with him now. Did you lose your virginity yet?" The blond blushed and shook his head, "N-No, but I'm kinda going to pretty soon most likely. I didn't know Kouha felt the same way as I did...you know about us touching each other. He's a little different when we are doing that stuff. Like...being more attractive and lustful."
His brother chuckled and placed a hand on his hip, "Even the sweetest and bashful people can be a bit...interesting in bed."
"Yeah, he wanted me to bite his neck until it bled. Guess you can learn a lot from your lover in bed huh..."
"Heh, yep."
The brothers continued talking happily about the topic, with Alibaba asking Cassim questions about it. He was thrilled that his brother knew so much and took his advice into thought. But for some reason he grew worried about Kouha. Did something bad happen? He only hoped everything will go well with him.
Kouha marched to his house ignoring the men harassing him as he passes by. They all did their routine of whistling out to him and tagging behind him by the tail. A small group was quietly whispering with their arms stretching out to the young male. Kouha felt one hand push him into a nearby alley against a garage where he got pinned by one man. It was a tall man who was followed by two others with sneaky grins on their faces. The tall man ran his tongue across his dry lips, "Is this the one?"
One with tattoos on his arms nodded, "Yeah, she would always take this way to some big mansion every evening. Don't know why she would keep walking here when the men here wants her body. Maybe she wants some fun..." The last man laughed and traced his finger along Kouha's cheek. Kouha kept his eyes away from the man staring at him wickedly. He felt the hot breath of alcohol on his face as the stranger studied his fair body. He smiled grimly, "What a pretty sight up close. So who's going first?" Kouha didn't show any signs of fear, but watched their movements carefully. The men argued and the tall one held his waist roughly.
"I'll fuck her, it'll be quick," He growled.
The man with tattoos tilted his head, "She doesn't look like she's scared at all. She really wants our dicks in her pussy." They laughed which made Kouha sigh. He cupped the tall man's cheek, "So what if I do?" He knelt to remove the male's belt. He pulled his pants down, "But I don't want to be pushed around. I want to enjoy this too." The tall man cocked a brow in interest. He crossed his arms, "Alright then. Give daddy a good time."
The smaller male winked, "I will, cutie..."
He was about to reach for his underwear but his hand met his boot. He pulled out a small knife that caused the men to cry out in shock. The blade met the necks of the men in a heartbeat before they panicked. Blood poured from the bodies and Kouha licked some up off his knife. He gave a low menacing laugh, "You sick bastards will never learn..." His eyes twitched and his body shook slightly. The sight of the lifeless corpses fueled the bliss that glowed in his dark orbs. His hand gripped his shirt after his breaths became heavy; he had to turn his back on the ravishing sight. He scanned the area making sure there were no witnesses. He lapped up the remaining blood on the blade and tucked it back in his boot. Heading to the mansion he took a shortcut to avoid suspicion. Once he made it there his servants attacked him with hugs. They cried and nuzzled his cheeks. He blushed, "Sorry I've been gone for quite some time, spent the night over at a friend's." The short woman dragged him inside and the curly haired one closed the door. Kouha was soon trapped in the women's giant hug. "Make sure to tell us next time master Kouha! You almost made us have heart attacks!" The tall one wiped her eyes.
"Did you have fun at least?"
"You looked stressed, we will prepare a bath for you."
Kouha heard the women rant on in relief. He giggled and hugged them back, "Please, save your breaths. I've only been gone for one evening. But it probably worried mother sick. Where is she anyway? She wished to speak with me?" The women pulled away blushing.
The tall woman bowed, "Ah yes, she is in her office. She wants you to speak to her there."
The short male exhaled and walked up the stairs. He stopped and turned back, "Prepare tea for me and leave it in my room please. I know I will be tired after the talk." The women gave a slight bow, disappearing into the kitchen. Kouha ventured across the right hall searching for his mother's office. His hand reached to knock the door when he stopped in front of it. "Come in," A woman voice sounded from the other side. He narrowed his eyes around the hall feeling someone was following him. He smirked and proceeded into the room, closing the door behind him. When he lifted his eyes he saw a young black haired woman sitting at her desk reading peacefully. She wore her wet hair up and was dressed in a bright red robe.
She lowered her book and gestured to a sofa in front of her. She smiled, "Sit, darling. We have much to discuss." Kouha seated himself on it, waiting for her to speak again. She interlaced her fingers, "I see you have a new friend. I am glad you did after such a long time, but are you aware of what happens when you have one? Especially one you share strong feelings with?"
Kouha lowered his gaze, "Yes, I know. But...I found someone I can truly love and I can't let go of him. He isn't like the rest that I had who were careless and foolish. I have to be with him." The mother lifted her body from the chair and walked around the desk. She sat beside him, "He may be kind hearted dear, but what if he found out about the household? He will be like them..."
"I will be more aware about what I am doing. If I just keep it a complete secret he will never know, and I won't erase him."
"I see, but what about the murder you committed in order to protect him? I cannot afford to clean up after each life you take, and even more this will bring out your true colors more. You don't want that, do you?"
"No mother..."
Her eyes turned darker and she leaned close to him. She rubbed the top of his head, "I grant you the freedom to do as you please so you can get as much education as you need until you graduate. You are abusing it again and I am very disappointed. From this day you are forbidden to see him, otherwise you will receive punishment." Kouha's eyes widened. Tears fell from his eyes, but he nodded. He clenched his fists that rested on his lap, "Yes, mother." She kissed his cheek, "That's my little Kouha." She returned to her seat and crossed her leg over the other. She lifted the book up to read again. The pink haired male got up slowly and stumbled to the door. When he went into the hallway he glared daggers at a figure that slipped out of the hall. He smiled and followed it in haste. He ended up in the kitchen where Hakuryuu was scanning through a cookbook.
Kouha plucked it off his hands, "I see you were being a little nosy. What did you hear?" The scarred man's eyes bore into his. He leaned on the counter, "Enough to know who you are. You had more than one lover, and you killed them. And you can't have one because you will become a psychotic bitch like you are now." A knife touched his neck, leaving a thin cut. Kouha growled, "I'd watch what I say if I were you."
Hakuryuu grabbed his arm, "How? Am I supposed to sit here while you pose a huge threat to my best friend's life? I hope you stay as far away as possible from him."
The other male pressed the knife deeper. He grinned and inched his head closer, "My, you are on thin ice. But as much as I want to tear you apart right now I have to keep you alive for my sweetheart's sake. However you know the rules." He lowered his knife and ran his tongue on the blade. His playful eyes of deadliness lost interest of his brother however left behind a threatening message. He let out a hum and hopped on the counter. "Answer me...What am I living in?" Hakuryuu's voice snapped his attention to him. Hakuryuu stared into his eyes with concern and anger.
Kouha gave an unsettling smile, "A house made up of those who kill for a living..." Hakuryuu froze. His eyesight became blurry and he took hold of the counter. He shook his head and was unable to hold his senses that was taken over by alarm. "No...Why...So I'm living in a place full of assassins?!" He yelled.
The older male giggled and swung his legs, "Yep!" Hakuryuu massaged his temples trying to keep focus. He narrowed his eyes at him, "I'm surrounded by you crazy bitches until I'm out of college, damn. And this whole time I was so naive and oblivious to what was going on." Kouha's smile disappeared, becoming serious. He traced his finger along the blade, "Mother never wanted to let you find out. She was afraid you were going to hand the information to someone else, bringing us out to lift panic in the city. Oh well either way you would eventually find out, but, will you tell another about this? Even more to my Alibaba?" He poked Hakuryuu's chest with the blade softly. Hakuryuu held his head down, covering his face with his bangs. "I...won't," He said quietly.
Kouha wrapped his arms around his neck. He felt that Hakuryuu didn't dare to fend himself with his weakening body. The emotionless state he sunk into brought joy in his satisfied expression. He kissed his cheek, "Good boy. Pity that you are a pathetic fool…You won't be able to fly away as long as you're in my hands. But, you are better off living like this." He pulled away and placed the knife back in his boot. He waved and strolled out of the room speaking no other word. Hakuryuu looked out the window seeing the dark pink sky of evening. He sighed and held his head, "Alibaba..."
