Where is Magnolia

Iris

' What are we?', ' What is this?', 'Why are you helping me?', 'Why are you kissing me?' these were the questions that wouldn't left Build's mind all night and now all morning. He sighed and continued stroking Bible's hair as he still sleeps on Build's chest. Normally Bible would wake up earlier than he does but yesterday he seemed tired so Build was not surprised when he wake up to a sleeping Bible hugging him. He cannot understand Bible's obsession with saving him, he knows his case is a big case that would bring him good fame but at the same time Bible said he wanted to quit this job after this so it still does not make any sense for Build.

What is he going to be if he quit this job? Is he going to take over his father's business or is he going to live a humble life with a laid down job? Build closed his eyes, he is not sure why but he does not want Bible to quit this job, he felt as if Bible wouldn't be happy at any other job but it's not like he can stop him with his position either, he does not feel like he is a lover or any equal partner to him, he felt as if he is only a possession that was misused in the past and forced into protection in a high technology safe now.

He really does not want to think that way but with the way people are treating him there was no doubt" What are you thinking about?" he looked down on his chest to see a sleepy Bible looking at him curiously " Nothing" he said " What is your plan after this?" he asked to change the subject, Bible raised on his elbows and looked directly into Build's eyes " I am going to pretend as if I was really kidnapped and investigate your sisters further in secret" Build raised his eyebrows " Then?" Bible smiled and left a kiss on his nose " I would risk your safety if I tell you 'then'" Build pouted, like how he thought he is just a mindless brainless ' a possession' for Bible too "But-" Bible left a kiss on his cheek " No buts, didn't you battle this family for nearly twenty six years until now I will finish that battle for you while you rest here happily with Lotus" Build cannot understand still, how can a person change this much in few days? Didn't he tell him that it is impossible for them to be together a day ago? Why is he treating him as if he is his wife and Lotus is their child? Was he always this unstable about his emotions and thoughts? Well not that Build has any complaints on getting closer to him like this kissing him, hugging him or sleeping with him but still because of Bible's unstable behaviours his thoughts became a mess. He was feeling stronger and as equal to Bible before he got trapped here by him.

Build shakes his head as if he was trying to get rid of his thoughts and grabbed Bible's head stroking his cheeks, he does not want to think more he just wants to enjoy these rare moments " Iris" he said, Bible left a kiss on his lips " Your sister that loves Alice in Wonderland?" Build nodded " She was always interested in it which made me happy since back then I thought I will have another sister who likes baking, riddles, teas or tea parties but it was the opposite" he sighed " She preferred growing illegal mushrooms, weeds for the sole purpose of selling them and even finds a cheap cafe who offers hookah and card games so she can feel like the ' caterpillar' but with a gambling addiction, she was a genius though so she was never defeated in any of the games she played" Bible nodded, sounds so illegal but it was a big clue and having Iris in their team would change everything if she was as tricky and as genius as Build told him about.

" So do you know where this cafe is?"Bible asked as Build smiled " I only know she has a secret room in our house that has all of those weeds and mushrooms, she discovered it one summer and didn't say anyone about it's place" Bible fixed Build's hair and looked at him curiously " What does your mother and father think about this?" Build looked away " They didn't know about it or the room because Iris used that money to pay off Daisy's needs on the sports she is playing or Lotus's secret boy clothes or any other sibling's interest which would be ripped out by my mother and father if they knew" Bible nodded " So I need to go to your house to find her probably" Build stayed silent for a moment " If you are going to do this investigation alone you will need a little support" he said, Bible shakes his head " I told you Build I don't want to risk-" Build cut him off " Take my triplet sisters" Bible looked at him shocked " Huh?" he said " Take Violet, Jasmine and Dahlia, Violet is good at sneaking or fighting, Dahlia is smart and good at acting and Jasmine can basically shapeshift with her fashion and make up abilities, they are the only ones I am sure would never betray me or you" Build said, Bible was about to object when Build continued " If you don't take them I will do anything in my hands to escape this building and you don't know my abilities so I wouldn't test them if I were you" Bible gulped and nodded, as long as Build is safe he can break any rule of his.
