I went back to the Mansion. Matt and Veronica were greeting me at the door, "So how did it go with father?" Matt asks polity when he saw (disappointment) on my face.

"It went great," I say sarcastically and went upstairs slamming the door. I should have known not to go. Now I'm curious about Rayson and that girl. Were they fooling around? How dare they fool around at my dad's building. If I report this to my father it would hurt the living of Rayson and that means Dylan will be affected too. I came to care about Dylan. Yesterday made me realize how special he is too me. He makes me feel ways that I haven't felt for a very long time. Love. I just thought love as a word for 2 years. Having only people in bed for sex. Now I want something more. More then the body; I want his heart too. I want to know what kind of person he really is. His past. Future plans. By doing that I would have to set a time to meet. But then again he told me never to talk to him again but I did in the car. I have a feeling that it wasn't him actually saying it that it was something else that told him that he can't talk to me anymore. Was it Lillian? Vincent? Bryson? Then it could also have been Alex? Cain? I will get down to the bottom of this and tell him what I really feel for him and to not have my friends push him away from me. I can just say that I will be the only one who would be a jerk to him. That he is my freshmen to make fun of. Be a bully to him. It will not be weird for me to say that will it? There is a knock on the door, "Who is it?"

The door opens. It is Veronica, "Are you alright Master Lucas?"

I sigh and lay on the bed. Putting a hand on my face.

"What troubles you so Master?"

"Please stop calling me Master it makes me feel like that is the only thing you think of me."

Veronica walks over and sits next to me, "What should I call you then?"

"Lucas is fine," I smiled at her, "I try going to my father's office and all he said was how it's going," I put my face in my hands. I don't know either of my parents anymore. Both working on holidays, weekends.

She holds my other hand. Squeezing it, "What happened afterwards?"

"He said that he was busy and only has a little time for me. I snapped at him and walked out off the office."

"Did he come after you?"

I shook my head. My mind felt numb. I couldn't think straight, "I shouldn't...have gone."

Veronica strokes my arm and hair. She puts my hand away from my eyes, "What you did was the right thing Mas...I mean Lucas. Sorry still getting the hang of calling you by just Lucas," I look at her. She was always so warm and kind. I don't know what I would do without her? The house will be lonely. Dinner would not be on the table. I clench my fist on the sheet. I breathed a little heaver. Feeling the pain in my chest that I ignored for so long about my parents. I pretended like I didn't mind them working this much. But deep down it was breaking me more and more, "Lucas it's ok to feel your pain. I know you are trying to be strong for Matt but it's not good to keep it inside so long. I know your hurting about your parents."

I gasp and wanted to put my hand over my face but she didn't let me. I couldn't help but feel a load of sadness wash over me. I felt a tear run down my cheek, "I'm sorry," I quickly wipe it away.

"No don't be its ok Lucas, its ok."

I got up and walk to the door, "I'm going to take a shower. Thanks for listening," I left her in my room and walk over to the bathroom. I needed time alone and I didn't want to be rude to her. I strip naked and hop in the shower. I needed to get out of here. Leave London with Matt. We can make our own lives together. But something always holds me back I love London. My whole life is in London. I was born and raised here.

I didn't see Dylan in first class on Monday, lunch or second class even. I asked the teachers why he has not shown up for his classes and they said that they couldn't give me information to that. Really there? I went to the TV room- he wasn't there. The music room- he wasn't there- then I knock on his door. Cain told me that he didn't come in lastnight meaning Sunday. So if he didn't check into his dorm then that means Dylan wasn't at the campus. I know where Rayson lives I been to his house ones three months ago when he invited me and my father and brother for dinner.

I got in my car and decided to drive to his house. I want to see if he is ok. It takes one hour to get there. I stop to get gas.

 

 

 

Dylan Pov

My back ached too much from his whip that I told Rayson that I couldn't go to school today which is Monday. I suppose you are wondering why I didn't just stay at my dorm while this is going on? Well I couldn't stand up on Sunday it hurt too much to walk and Monday was a sick day for me and I just didn't want to be around people right now.  The reason why Rayson whipped me is because I didn't come home the other night without telling him where I was. I heard a knock on the door, "Come in?"

'Lucas! What is he doing here?'

"There you are! You weren't in school so I came here to check."

"What are you doing here!" I quickly got up to check the window. Seeing if Rayson is there?

"I just told you I didn't see you at school so I got concerned and came here."

"Did Carlos see you?"

"Uh of course...he let me in. It would be rude if I just let myself in."

I look at my watch it was two hours till Rayson gets home. And worst Carlos knows. What if he tells Rayson. I walk back to the bed and trip on something.

Lucas gasps and walks over to me, "Are you ok?" he grabs my arm, helping me up.

"Let go!"

Lucas looks at me surprised and lets go, "What is your problem! I just want to help you?"

I sigh and sit on the bed. I guess he can stay now since Carlos knows so I will be whipped tonight so Tuesday will be more pain. I can't stand it in this house anymore, "Lucas? Could you take me back to the school? I been sick that's why I didn't go to school but I'm feeling better now?"

"Sure let's go then? Will your uncle be alright with you just leaving like that?"

"I will tell Carlos. Do you mind if I take a shower real quick?"

Lucas lies on my bed without permission 'Jeez this guy' "Sure take your time we're not in a rush."

'This guys coming to my uncle's house uninvited like that.' Who does he think he is? When Rayson finds out then my back will not heal for quite a long time. What will I do if it interferes with soccer. I slid down to the shower floor and rest my head in my hand. Letting the water run. Till it became cold I felt numb. Numb too the point that I can't feel my body starting to get cold. I couldn't feel my body freezing. Shivering.

1 hour later- Knock, knock, "Hey Dylan your taking a long time in there. I know I said we don't have to rush I still have homework an-"

I open the door with a towel wrapped around my body so that he wouldn't see the whip marks, "OK chill. Let me get dressed first?" my arm brushes on his arm while going by.

"Your cold Dylan."

I turn to look into his tree green eyes, "I know that I'm cold. I'm a cold hearte-"

"No I mean your skin is cold," he walks over to me and feels my arm, "why are you cold?"

I walk backwards from him, "It's a hot day today I wanted to cool down."

"Hot day? But you were in doors the whole time sick. That's right your sick. Your an idiot to do that when your sick."

I gasp and turn my back away from him, walking to my room, I slammed the door and lock it. I gritted my teeth, 'That bastard calling me an idiot!' I got out my clothes and drop the towel on the floor. I went over to the bed to get changed while walking over I stop and look at my back in the mirror. It's still really red and fresh.
