Get out

Even the Bitter is Sweet

Ray and Inu slipped out of the apartment at some point, leaving Victor with Eddy and Alex. Neither parties being all too fond of each other. To Eddy that didn't matter though, he was going to enjoy seeing Alex no matter who was there watching them suspiciously!

They found themselves sitting on the couch in the living room together since Eddy would probably be leaving soon, seeing as Victor made no such agreement to let him stay. Even if that was a bit saddening to the younger assassin, he would make the most of it.

"So did the medic remind you of anyone?" Alex asked hushedly since this was the start of a more private conversation.

"No, why?" Eddy's brows furrowed, not entirely sure where this was going.

"He kinda looks like that nurse who had to get that vibrator out of your ass," Alex kept his voice low since he didn't need to announce that to the whole room. Eddy's face blossomed bright red. He didn't imagine their back together conversation to be this. Maybe like an I miss you or a confirmation on what their relationship was? But no, Alex just had to bring up the one time he got a vibrator stuck!

"He does not look like that nurse," Eddy's voice went up an octave as he swatted the smaller man's thigh.

"Yes he does! He looks exactly like nurse Chen!" Alex exclaimed, "They have the same mole by their eyebrow, not to mention the same structure. I am telling you dude, it's the same guy!"

He argued, only making Eddy's face more red.

The gears started turning though, his eyes widening a bit with realization, "Oh god no! Maybe they are just people who look alike, that happens right?!"

He hoped to all the gods that Ray was not the same person even if they looked alike. He was just starting to become friends with the man, he didn't need that memory to suddenly pop up and for Ray to see him as a weirdo.

Alex shrugged a bit, "I mean, I kinda look like the prince of crime, so it happens."

The shorter male smiled softly knowing how he told Eddy never to say prince of crime again and how it was cringey, but it was worth it to see Eddy smile a bit and laugh. Despite his mini panic.

For the most part, Victor tried to ignore the conversation happening between the happy couple on the couch. He didn't want to hear about the vibrator or the nurse or anything they ever did together. It made him feel nauseated. He still couldn't stop paying attention, though, to Alex' teasing tone that made him want to smile a bit to himself. He figured it was probably because it was teasing Eddy, a guy he definitely had little good to say about.

"Ray's last name is Chen, though," he heard himself comment softly, only realizing after that he had said it out loud and not just in his head.

"Oh shit!" Eddy exclaimed, really he should have more shame when it came to Victor listening to their conversation. He didn't though, the organization watched and listened to everything he and Alex did. That meant all the dirty stuff. Not to mention Brett watched him masturbate and he also had sex with Brett for that matter. He didn't really have shame when it came to people he didn't like all that much. He felt more of it when he actually really liked a person, like Ray. The man was generally sweet and so caring, Eddy almost immediately gravitated towards him, "Chen is a common last name though."

Eddy said to himself to be in denial, even if it was unlikely for someone to have the same last name and look the same. Unless twins or related or a freak of nature.

Alex sent a subtle glare Victor's way, mildly thinking he was a perv listening to them. Not that he would say it to the host, not to mention he also knew the other probably was only listening to make sure this wasn't an elaborate plan for them to go kill Brett.
