Rebel got back to his office an hour later and started working on what he needed to do.

He looked at the time, realizing he was supposed to go home a few hours ago. He got up and packed his things in his bag and took out his phone, texting his friend he'd be home soon. He got out of the office and into his car, starting to drive home.

Rebel got home 30 minutes later, walking inside seeing his friend, May, sitting on the couch.

He sat next to her, smiling and held her close.

"Hey...you feeling okay?" He asked as she nodded.

"Yeah...just a couch now." She sighs and lied down next to Rebel. "How was work?" She asked.

"Nothing new other than the fact that I had to go to a strip club." Rebel chuckled and sighed, thinking about Leo and blushed lightly.

May looked up at him and giggled.

"Yeah? How was it? Meet any hot girls or guys?" She smirked.

"Oh shut it...yeah there was a cute guy...but I don't think he's my type..." Rebel sighed.

"Oh come on Rebel! You've been confused for so long...go hook up with a guy or two and figure it out." She chuckled again.

"You're an asshole. You know that?" Rebel asked as she nodded.

"Yep! I know." She smiled then coughed a few times as Rebel sighed.

"You rest..you need it..." Rebel smiled and got up, walking to his room, sighing. "I do need to figure it out." He sighed and sat on his bed.

A few hours later, Rebel woke up, not realizing he fell asleep. He got up and out of bed and walked downstairs to May.

"Heh..." he put a blanket over her and felt her head. "You're burning up...I'll take you to the doctors later.." He smiles and kissed her cheek. "Sleep well." He sighed and sat down next to her, making sure she's okay.

The next morning, Rebel woke up to May shaking him.

"Wake your ass up Rebel!" She chuckled.

"Alright alright. I'm awake!" He smiled. "How are you feeling?" He asked as she smiled.

"Eh..been better..."

"I'll take you to the doctors later. Okay?" He smiles as she nodded and laid back down.

"M'kay...go to work." She smiled as Rebel got up and got ready.

After he got to work, his boss knocked on his door.

"Rebel. I need you to go to the club again. There's a few other questions you need to ask them." He said and left as Rebel smiled a little and got up, immediately leaving.

After about an hour, he finally got there and entered the club. He smiled a little and saw Leo at the bar. He smiled a little more and walked to him, hugging him from behind.

"Hey again." He said as Leo turned around.

"Hey, Rebel. Nice to see you again. What are you doing here?" He asked, smiling.

"My boss needed a few more questions. Mind if I ask them?" Rebel suggested as Leo took his hand and walked towards his room and sat down on the couch with him.

"Of course." He smiled.

"Okay. In case of a bad storm. Where do you guys go?" He asked, looking at Leo, who was somewhat blushing. "Leo?" He snapped in his face and Lek jolted.

"Sorry uh..we have an underground shelter. We've only needed it once though." He smiled a little, still blushing.

"Are you okay?" Rebel asked. "You look sick. No offense." He sighed.

"I-I'm fine. Sorry." Leo shook his head and sighed. "Any other questions?" He asked as Rebel put all of his thinga down and looked at Leo.

"What's going on? That's my question." He asked and sighed.

Leo looked down, sighing and twiddled with his fingers. Rebel looked down at his hands and grabbed them.

"Leo...what's wrong?" He asked again as Leo cuddled close to him. "Oh..okay?" He said and wrapped his arm around Leo. "Talk to me...please..." Rebel insisted as Leo looked up at him, smiling.

"You're adorable. You know that?" Leo asked and kissed Rebels cheek softly, then his lips gently and quickly pulled away.

Rebel looked down, blushing madly and covered his face.

"You get flustered easily." Leo chuckled.

"No I don't!" Rebel groaned and crossed his legs.

Leo chuckled, knowing what that meant and smirked.

"Want help?" He asked as Rebel shook his head.

"No. I'm fine, nothing wrong..." Rebel said, sighing and still blushing.

"Oh come on...please?" Leo insisted as Rebel looked at him.

"Okay.." Rebel smiled.
