CENTUM UNUS

"you guys crushed it" techno put a fist up to his mouth and laughed, coming closer to me and bruno, resting against the little circle table that sat between all of us.

"i know we did" Bruno laughed, shaking hands with techno, my supposedly brother.

"yall are insane" nick came closer, slightly sobered up but he was still visibly tipsy. well, fake tipsy.

i pushed my self away from the table and bowed, causing Bruno and techno to start laughing again.

"i am blown away" Jaiden came closer, laughing as corpse was right next to him.

"ah Bruno, meet my other brother, corpse" i turned around and gestured towards the very obviously gay man who wore a red velvet suit with countless chains.

"well nice to met you corpse" Bruno smiled, his attention was more on Jaiden though and corpse saw it.

"and that's egg, his fiancé" i pointed towards Jaiden and his face kind of dropped, realizing i called him a nickname only corpse does. but then he realized why.

"its nice to meet you too" Bruno put his hand out for a handshake and Jaiden accepted it with ease, his nails slightly clacking against one another as he moved to and from brunos hand.

slowly, the lights started dimming and all the spotlights turned to the balcony. i turned around and faced away, just leaning against the table with a champaign glass in my hand. because truth be told i could care less what they have to say, its all some useless shout out to their sponsors and thanking everyone that helped them on the way. it was un-important.

"Hello everyone!" a man came out, i didn't see him because i wasn't looking but he sounded middle-aged, 40-50's maybe.

"I would like to thank everyone who came here tonight, it means a lot to me" he said, sounding like he was holding a mic in his hand seeing as his voice kept going in and out.

all of the crowd started cheering, including techno and corpse, they where just following the set up.

"before we get started, i would like to thank all my sponsors" the same man said once more, the crowd cheering again.

"phil Watson, and his lovely lady" Those words, they caught me so, so very off-guard. because for one, i haven't heard phils last name in years, and two, lovely lady?

quickly i spun around and saw techno, nick, laura, and corpse just as confused as i was. i turned my attention towards the balcony and saw him walking out onto the half circle, that same women from earlier on his arm. his gaze met ours and then he laughed.

"you guys didn't think i got these spots here for free" he spoke into the coms, masking it under a smile as he waved to everyone in the room.

i just shook my head and laughed, turning back around and leaning against the table, not caring about anything that goes on up there anymore.

the person went on with a couple more names, i didn't pay any attention until the last few.

"Reyna and Bruno Coast! who im afraid could not join us up here due to the dance floor commotion" the man laughed, my attention turning to Bruno and he just shook his head, one of the spotlights going directly onto him as the crowd cheered.

"and finally, our biggest doners tonight. please give a drumroll for Kevin and Olivia collins with their son sean!" the man practically yelled into the coms. But his words, they set me into a daze

i stared down onto the table before i felt technos hand hitting my side.

"its not them" i spat back, refusing to believe it was actually my dead family. i killed my father myself. there is no getting up from what i did to him.

"no clay look" techno whispered into my ear, using my real name meant it was important.

slowly, the cup in my hand i turned around, my posture still shit but i moved my eyes towards the balcony, first seeing phil just as shocked and in disbelief as i was.

then i looked right, to the very front of the balcony. seeing a man with an eyepatch, thick hands waving in the air, a women in a wine red sparkly dress on his shoulder, and a man who looked twenty five at most. he had dirty blonde hair, a normal tux on, and his hands where in the air waving.

"oh my fucking god" i moved back into the table, almost knocking it over. my brain flooded with memorys, with fear, with confusion, anger, remorse, i couldn't stop moving. my hands where shaking and i felt my head start to pound.

"we need to focus on the mission" techno gripped my arm and whispered into my ear

"i fucking killed him" my elbows where on the table as i just stared at MY family, that was supposed to be dead.

"obviously not" nick got on my right, Bruno going off to find his cousin. his sarcasm in these moments where usually funny but seeing as my father and mother AND brother where waving to hundreds of people in front of my eyes, it was not so funny.

"no you dont understand, i put a twelve-inch kitchen knife through his eye and watched it come out the other side of his head" i turned to nick and looked at him with fear in my eyes, but he looked more scared than i was.

"hes supposed to be dead" i turned to techno and corpse and they looked at me helplessly, like they where fearful as well but they where still in the mission.

then i heard a door shut in the right corner, lily and charlie where back.

"clay keep your shit together" corpse got Infront of me and put his arm to my chest, pushing me against the table even harder than i already was myself.

"corpse get off of him" phil mumbled into the coms, he sounded so worried, so fearful, but i didn't know if it was from my father or from me. he knew what i was capable of and that was what scared him.

corpse pushed his arm into my chest once more as he pushed himself off of me, just sighing as he knew this could go very, very wrong.

i stood back up, re adjusting my suit. i tried to gather my thoughts but when i looked to my right and saw lily staring at me worringly, i lost my shit.

lily quickly ran up to zak and started asking him something.

"zak dont tell her anything" i cursed into the coms, turning around to face the table again.

i saw him look at me, then back at lily, he told her. He fucking told her the one thing he wasn't supposed to.

Lilys eyes slowly turned to me, from a hundred yards away, i could see she was confused, i could see she was upset, worried, scared. she never knew what i did and now i would have to tell her, if zaks blabber mouth didn't do it first.
