IMMORTALLY PROBLEMATIC

Chapter 62: What You Want

" I know we are connected because of the Immo Plant, it's gone now so you don't have to be obligated to show me any care anymore, to think that she pushed me out a window while controlling me and you still siding her. To think that every time you said hurtful words for me I sided you, right from the beginning, I tried my best to understand you. Just Why? I don't get it? I... Kinda get it but it still hurts. P'Payu, let's just deal with this problem and have it over with, when we are done you can return back to Arityl victorious, I'll make sure of that. But for now, I think I want to go and sleep, I've cried more times for you than I've done my entire life, I don't think I have any more tears to shed so let's call it quits.
Payu held his hand
" Can you not do this, I beg you, it's just your insecurities."
" My insecurities? Can you hear yourself?"
" Okay I didn't mean for it to come out that way. I just want..."
" I don't care what you want anymore. I'm done competing. I'll meet someone who will chose me first and that person will definitely not be an Immortal jerk like you." Rain didn't let him get any words in, he stood up and left to the other guest room. Payu was left in the sitting room alone confused and dazed. How did things get so bad he asked himself but there was no answer. Rain loathed him, he knew he needed to talk to someone and the best person to talk to was Sky. To an extent he felt he would understand him best. He took up the courage he had and stood up he went upstairs and knocked on Sky's door. Sky came out and Payu asked if they could speak. Sky nodded and they both went to the garden. Sky sat down and so did Payu. He sighed then began
" I really don't know what to do about Rain anymore, he's being unreasonable..."
" He's being unreasonable or you are?"
" What do you mean?"
" Payu, I'm pretty sure if Priscilla were to come now, you would choose her on a heartbeat leaving my friend high and dry."
" I'll never do that to him, never."
" Have you tried to tell him that? Not just tell him, show him? Payu since yesterday you've been completely different and making Rain suffer."
Rain came out to drink water and saw Payu and Sky in the garden outside. He tiptoed to hear their conversation.
" Rain should know that I can't be with another person but him, he should know that I am happier with him. Joyful with him, ecstatic with him. I don't understand why he acts the way he does."
" You keep giving him reason to, you keep pushing him back and forth."
" Pai does the same with you, why don't you react the same way Rain does."
" Because I know that Pai is mine. He wouldn't even dare get someone else. He wouldn't think twice before calling my name, he wouldn't make me have a second of doubt. We've grown to the level where I don't even worry about him anymore. Have you done that for Rain? No, you keep making him doubt you every other day, I was across from you and I doubted you."
" So what should I do?"
" Make him know, he's the only one, Rain deserves nothing but the best, and you know that so don't you dare give him less."
Sky stood up and excused himself. Pai and him were actually in the middle of a meeting but Pai let him go to Payu because he knew he needed someone to talk to. Rain tiptoed back inside and went straight to the room. No one saw him, he was feeling more hurt because Payu painted him out to be this difficult and unreasonable person. Rain didn't come out all day as he was hurt and generally tired. He fell asleep.
Sky went to meet Pai who was done with the meeting. He laid beside him and smiled.
" You know it's bad when the boss of a company and the assistant are on vacation, no work is being done."
Pai smiled and replied " Don't say that, you're working overtime, being with me is a lot of work, and you don't get paid enough." Sky couldn't help but smile at this, he opened his palm to which Pai was confused and asked " what for?"
" You better pay me."
" In cash or kind." Pai bit his lower lip. This gesture as simple as it was made Sky feel some type of way. Pai was someone who could only exist in paintings or mangas but here he was right in front of Sky. Sky felt his heart skip a beat and he couldn't help but smile, he didn't know when he blurted out " so handsome!" realizing this he covered his mouth but the deed was already done Pai who was still looking at him and heard him loud and clear asked " is that compliment for me or..."
" It's for myself." For some inexplicable reason, Sky still had goosebumps seeing Pai. He was so attracted to him and could feel his heart melt into butter everytime. He was his lasting lover.
"Can you hug me?" Pai asked standing up from the bed. Sky felt all types of feelings all at once. He was really in love with this person, totally and completely. He opened up his arms and Pai came in. He kissed his neck, Sky flinched a bit but liked the feeling so much. Pai held onto Sky tightly, he held onto him like a person who would find it difficult to live if Sky was absent in his life. No, he wouldn't be able to, Sky was his entirety. They knew this would be a really bad time to get physical with danger lurking around. Pai held Sky's hand and took him to the bed, sitting him down. He held both his hands and kissed them individually
" Sky, thank you?"
" For what?" Sky's heart in this moment could jump out, he almost forgot how to breath.
" Loving me with all your heart." He kissed his forehead " loving me with all of you." Pai bowed his head and to Sky's shock he kissed his feet and looked up at him " and most importantly walking towards me. Sky you're truly the most important person in my life and I cherish you so much it's crazy. I never thought I would love someone this much but here I am willing to go this far for you... You are my..." Knock knock. Someone knocked on their door. They were going to ignore it until they heard " guys it's important."
It was Payu. They quickly got up, realizing they couldn't leave the room, took sometime to rest their lower legs then came out some minutes later. Payu and Rain were already in the living room, they met an unexpected guest. It was Priti. " Why are you here?"
" I have a solution."
" And you think we will believe you because..?" Sky asked.
" I want some peace."
"Ok what is your solution."
" Both of you destroy the Immo Plant with your swords, Priscilla is gone forever and you're free."
" When? When can we do this?" Rain asked eagerly.
" How can we trust you?" Payu asked
" Believe me, I know what I am saying."
" Fine. It's settled then, let's go." Pai held onto Sky
" Are you bringing your human companions?"
" They need to see this more than we do." Payu said, he tries to hold Rain but he moved back and went to Pai instead. This broke him a little inside. They all left. Immediately they fot home to Carityl. Pai brought out his sword. They made a forcefield with Sky and Rain being outside it to protect them, but they could see through. Payu appeared and got inside too. He saw Rain outside and faced forward. He brought out his sword as well. Pai looked at him with a grin on his face
" Let's end this." They both nodded, getting closer they lifted their swords to strike it. Instantly Priscilla's face appeared in the plant. " Are you actually going to hurt me." They were both shocked. They hadn't seen her in two hundred years so they were taken aback.
" P'Payu my love. Hope you're fine, sorry about everything I did."
" Payu don't get swayed at least not now."
" Right, let's end this."
Pai lifted his sword and so did Payu. Priscilla's face screamed
" P'Payu save me." Pai closed his eyes and struck, but heard metal, he opened his eyes. Payu blocked his sword with his. Everyone was stunned
