in pieces

7. figure 09

Chester had went missing again. He left a note saying he was going on a walk, but he had been gone for hours. It worried me. If I didn't rape Chester... who did? What if that was going on right now? Maybe he was just paranoid? I sighed, missing his warm laughter. I heard a door open and saw him. He was hiding something, I knew he was. Especially with the thick clothing he was wearing during this warm fall.

"Why are you staring. Like whatcha see?" He smirked. I blushed deeply. He used to say silly shit like this all the time. I felt his slender arms tangling around my waist as he buried his face into the crook of my neck. I smiled softly, picking him up and bringing him to the couch. It wasn't even a moment until he passed out in my arms. He must've been really tired.

I again picked him up and laid him on the bed a few rooms over. He was sweating bullets and I knew he would overheat if I didn't take his jacket off. I gently unzipped and took it off, noticing the long sleeved shirt underneath. I knew he wasn't this cold natured. I wanted to take it off as well, but I decided just to drop the cooling in the house. I could always grab a blanket. I wrapped my arms around him and kissed his head, deciding to take a nap too.

(Chester's POV)

Mike had taken my jacket off. He had the respect to keep my shirt on. I knew he just didn't want me getting overheated. I knew he used to hate me. Yet here we are. I couldn't trust anyone more than him and Rob. Mike is the only one with the privilege to hold me and baby me. Other men have gotten the privilege to use me... but Mike didn't know. He would leave me if he knew.

I went to the bathroom and took off my shirt. The bruises that were older were fading, but newer ones from this morning were still there, purple and bright. I didn't even want to see my legs and hips. I leaned against the wall, sliding down it until I hit the floor. I curled up on my side and started to cry. I only let him start cause he paid me. I only let him pay me to do the horrendous act because he would rape me without paying. At least I got a few bucks for it...

"Chester... oh- Chaz!" I heard Mike beside me. I choked out a sob. I heard him talking to what seemed to be Rob. I shivered, watching him assure me and tell me I was beautiful. In my wrecked entirety. I couldn't be afraid with him because he took things so slow and gentle. Like I was going to break at the slightest touch. Gentle hands started to clean my back. Even though the cleaning hurt, I was so tired. Bandages were wrapped across my back and I was lifted. I snuggled close to him and relaxed.

(Mike's POV)

The bruising on his back was concerning. He was dozing, but I woke him up so we could check his back and everything else. He was cooperative with us and let us look. I didn't even realize I was crying. I was careful when cleaning his back and made sure he was comfortable as he could possibly be. I could tell he was tired, so I hurried and wrapped him up in my arms, covering us with a blanket as I took him to my bed. He rarely slept with me, but I knew the warmth and him knowing I was near would help. He was still crying a bit, so some drool and tears, possibly snot too, got on my shirt. Didn't mind it too much, as he was worth my shirt getting ruined for.

"I'm s-sorry Mike..." I heard him mumble. I could feel he was still awake. Dazed, but awake. "He... I'm... I was... I was a p-... I... this man paid me-... he paid m-me for..." I felt myself going pale. Not anger at him, but at myself and the man who did this. Chester didn't want to be paid. I could feel myself going under.

(Robert's POV)

I could hear Chester calling my name urgently. I ran to their room and saw Chester trying to awaken an unconscious Mike. He seemed panicked and stressed. I was afraid of a seizure. With a gentle touch I guided him away so I could wake Mike up. Yet nothing tried and true was working. Upset, I listened to the way he was breathing. He must've been tired.

"Chaz, he's just really tired. You two should both rest after what you've been through," I smiled. Chester nodded as he crawled beside Mike. Mike instinctively wrapped his arms around Chester. They could feel each other. I decided to go ahead and head home to Brad. After all, I needed payback for the hospital.
