Use Me, Darling

Part 22

Tay and Kinn both lookeddone the next day in university. Their eyes were just numbly staring towardsthe front. They realized that many people had looked at them and probablywondered what had happened to Kinn. In Tay's matter, they just thought he wasstill sick, not that he had cried all day yesterday before lying awake forhours. As soon as Time had seen the tow of them walked up to them, wrapped hisarm around Tay's shoulder while walking with them to class. Usually, Tayenjoyed Times touch like that, he enjoyed being close to him and when hewrapped him in his arms. But now cold shivers were rolling down his spine,however he didn't push him away. He just went further his way, ignoring theexistence of the boy next to him. No one talked. They just went to class insilence, sat in class in silence and then ate in silence. As Tay finally wasback home in his room, he let out a sight of relive, he didn't saw Vegas allday. He may had missed his soft touch from time to time however he had stayedstrong. His next days continued like that. Just that Kinn didn't show up toclass. But Tay wasn't all too worried. He had probably some important work thatcame up which he needed to prioritize. Time came up to him every single day,wrapped his arm around his shoulder but didn't said a word. And even when hesaid something he quickly got quiet again, as Tay just wouldn't answer. It wasjust the Saturday, when his phone rang, and he was informed of Kinn being inthe hospital. Shocked he listened to the calm voice of Kim, Kinns littlebrother. He told him, that Kinn had been kidnaped after going to see Porsche.They were able to escape the kidnapers but lost their way in a jungle outsideof Bangkok where his family's team had been searching for them. Kinn got shootin the process, however he wasn't in a life-threatening situation. Tay went tohospital as fast as he could. He felt like he was to blame. He told Kinn to goand talk to Porsche, that he would do so, without having his other bodyguardswith him. At least Kinn didn't got all to hurt, he was apparently already backup and well. And Porsche was back at his side as his bodyguard. Tay reallydidn't want to imagine what the tow of them had been going through in the lastcouple of days. He arrived at the hospital at the same time as Time did. Time'sface lit up as his eyes meet the eyes of his past lover. "You also got called?"He quickly made his way over to Tay and wanted to pull him in for a hug. "Don'tworry, Kinn is going to be just fine. You know how he is." Eagerly Tay pushedTime off before walking in. "Of course, he is. How could it be any different."It felt uncomfortable to stand next to Time in the elevator. He didn't like thesilence that laid upon them, however he also didn't want to talk to him. He hadnothing to say to him. Kinn was standing at the window, deeply lost in histhoughts. "Man, you scared us. Are you alright now?" Time let himself fall ontothe comfortable bed. Tay slowly stepped up to the window and positioned himselfnext to Kinn. "What are thinking about?" His eyes scanned his face, trying tounderstand what had been going on his mind till the tow of them entered. Kinnon the other hand just shook his head without looking at his friends. "Youdon't mind if I eat something, right?" Time had only eyes for the untouchedtray of food on Kinn's bedside. "Sure, go ahead." "How are thing man?" Tayneeded to know what Kinn was actually feeling. "Not much." Time let out asilent laughter "You mean your health or your heart." Kinn realized again, thathis two best friends just knew him a little to well. Why could they just readhim like an open book? Was he that obvious? A cold look was given to theshowing Time. "Your feelings, you can't resist them." Tay continued while notletting him out of sight, "Love is love, you can't forget about him? Love isn'tthat complicated, but what's complicated is you." Kinn just shrugged with hisshoulders, he knew they were right. It was just the scars that other people hadleft, that made this whole situation so much more difficult for him. "Agree,mine isn't complicated. Why do you think so much?" Tay wanted to shoot a coldanswer to Times agreement, however he just swallowed it down. If love wasn't complicated, then why did you cheaton me all those times? Well, maybe that was theexact reason for him to do so. Tay just must had been too easy for him. Therewasn't any challenge being with Tay. Only if he made some for his self. "Justone more thing, don't replace anyone with some else." Kinn nodded. His friendswere right, like they always were. "If you would excuse me, I need to ask youtwo to leave. I have something that I need to take care of." Kinn announced,walking back to his bed and reaching for his mobile phone. "Sure thing, dowhatever you need to do, where are going to leave."
