Taming of the Lion (boy X boy)

Returning Home...

CHALLENGE: Who can tell me what this story is a fanfic of?

Oh, btw, I'll probably go back later and add more parts for the vacation. Anyway, here's the next part.

This is like a time skip of a week.

Alexander:

*****That morning*****

Ring. Ring.

I move my hand around for my phone then hit the answer button. "Hello?" I say half asleep.

Duke's voice came through the other line. "Hey, Xander, so how much longer are you guys staying out there? I still got an extra week."

"Another week...." I trail off, not able to finish my sentence.

"Okay, I'll tell your dad, later Xander."

Click.

"Cool... we're... going back... tomorrow...." I grumble before passing out.

****In the van, at Asher's house****

"Aleex! Ashie! Wake up!" Koby said as she shook me.

I open my eyes to see Koby in my face. I jump slightly and bump heads with her. She moves back as she rubs her forehead. "I'm sorry, Koby, you startled me." I say as I reach out to her.

She smiled. "It okay. We home! Come on!"

I lower my hand and give her a warm smile. "Okay."

I watch as she scrambled to get out of the van. Laughing slightly to myself, I unbuckle Asher and myself. The buckle hits him in the face and he nearly hits the roof. I can't help but to burst out laughing. Asher slowly turned his head towards me with the most pissed off look I've ever seen, which only made me laugh harder.

"Stop... please... sides... hurt!" I gasp between laughs, holding onto my sides.

He glares at me with the most serious face before bursting into laughter with me. I gasp for air as my laugh turned soundless.

We finally stop laughing after what felt like five minutes. But as soon as we looked at each other again we started laughing yet again.

By this point Koby had come back and decided to wack us on the head.

We quickly sober up before both looking up at her while rubbing our heads. "What'd ya do that for sis?" Asher asked so innocently.

Koby just crossed her arms and stuck out her tongue. "You big meanie heads, you gotta help unpack too. You don't just get to play all while we do all work." She said it so seriously, and it was just so adorable.

"Okay, Okay." I said, holding my hands up in defeat. "We're comin' no need to get all worked up."

She smiled at me before hopping marily out of the van. "Then come on, slow pokes!"

***Time skip***

As soon as we got everything unpacked, I loaded my bags into my car that I had driven and left over here.

After I tossed my bag into the back seat, Asher walked over to me with his hands in his pockets. I simply stood in front of him.

"I-I had fun... and I hope you did too...." He says shyly,

I place my hand on his head. "Of course, puppy, why wouldn't I?"

He looks up at me with his big puppy eyes. "I thought you regretted ever coming with me."

I ruffle up his hair. "Silly puppy, where'd you get that idea?"

"Well... you looked really irritated almost all the time...."

I laugh at him. "That's not how I felt, I promise. Now it's time for me to go home, wish me luck."

I turn to get in my car but I'm stopped by Ash wrapping his arms around me. I looked down at him and saw that he was crying. I quickly hugged him back and to sooth him. "Shh... what's the matter?"

He sniffed before looking up at me. "I don't want you to leave so soon. I don't know why, I just don't want you to leave."

I rub his back. "It'll be okay, school starts in a little more than a month, you can see me then."

He nods his head. "I know, I just got a bad feeling that if I let you go something bad is going to happen."

"Don't worry Asher, everything is going to be alright."

"Okay...." He says before letting me go.

I push his hair out of his face, and wipe away the few tears that fell. "See you later, Asher."

He smiled. "See you later."

I gave him one more quick hug before get into my car. As I drove away I couldn't help but feel the same way... something bad is about to happen, but I just can't tell what.

***

I parked my car in the driveway and got my bags out of the backseat before walking inside. The door was strangely unlocked yet not lights were on. No one was supposed to be home yet, there were still visiting with relatives.

I set my bags down next the couch and slowly tip-toed around the house, looking for anything out of place. After I searched the house, I stopped in front of the last door and knocked. A deep voice answered. "So, you're finally home, Alexander? Come in, I want to talk to you about where you've been these past two weeks."

I go to grab the handle but hesitate before I touch the metal. I had a very bad feeling about this. Even my instincts were telling me not to, but he was my dad and I can not disobey my dad directly.

I turned the knob and slowly opened the door. The room was so spacious. With only a bed, dresser and a desk, the room seemed so empty. My dad motioned for me to set on this bed as he rolled out the chair from his desk.

"So, Alexander, I allowed you to go with a mouse to where ever the hell he went. I don't even know why I let you go with him, I guess it was because he wasn't a dog. Comes to find out, you lied to me. You misused my trust and now," he pulled a whip out of his hand, "you will pay for it."

Poor Xander....

P.S. the dad has what's called storage powers. It is were you can store anything in your hands and bring it out later. This was mainly used by criminals, as in robbing a bank and then walking out like a hostage with all the money in their hands. It could also be useful in school, like if you have a lot of book you could just put them in your hands.
