Lukas laid on the ground helpless. He watched in horror as Jesse went over the edge, plummeting into an endless void that would surely kill him. There was a harsh breeze that sent a surge of coldness through the blond. A part of him thought Jesse was immortal from everything he had been through, but even the great hero couldn't survive a fall like that. Lukas had been so happy to rekindle their friendship, and perhaps have it turn into something more? But that was all gone now; it had been bitterly ripped away from him.
He heard footsteps and his stunned eyes met Aiden's. The other male wore a chipped tooth grin and was strolling towards Lukas. Blood trickled out of his mouth. Judging by his body language, it appeared Aiden had enjoyed killing his friend. Lukas knew he needed to run but his mind was too busy grieving and before he knew it there was a shadow towering over him.
"Aw, is someone in shock?" Aiden asked mockingly as he squatted in front of his ex-teammate. He attempted to wipe away the blood that dripped on his chin, but ended up smearing it against his mouth instead.
The last thing Lukas wanted to do was talk with Jesse's killer. Even if he wanted to say something, any words he thought of lumped in his throat. All he could do was stare into unwelcoming eyes.
Unpleased by the silence the brunet reached his hand up and grabbed Lukas' chin, "You know, this could have all been avoided if you would've just stayed out of my way." he eyed the blond up and down, "It's what he deserved."
Lukas shoved his hand away, "He didn't deserve that! You've always been jealous of Jesse, but this..." he trailed off finding it hard to speak.
Aiden's smile dropped and then he lunged. He pinned the smaller male's arms to his sides, "Jealous?! Are you kidding me?" he hissed leaning forward, "That brat had everything handed to him. He didn't deserve any of the attention he got!"
"That doesn't give you any right to-" The constrained male groaned as the grip tightened around his wrists. He felt his body and mind ache. Aiden's hot breath was inches from his face. Pain shot throughout Lukas as Aiden took a clump of blond hair and yanked it backwards, causing his head to hit the floor with a hard thud.
"You were like a trained puppy following his every move." The brunet snapped.
Lukas' now free hand came up and wrapped around Aiden's wrist, in an attempt to relieve the pressure. The smaller male whined from the stinging pain. He brought up his leg and kicked forward, causing Aiden to lose his grip and tumble backwards. Lukas quickly scattered to his feet. Heart racing he dashed to the opposite side of the room. He frantically touched along the wall trying to find a door handle. If only he could get out of this room, then maybe he could find Petra and Ivor, get help, something. He just wanted to put as much distance between him and Aiden as possible. Unable to find the door, Lukas turned around to come face to face with the very person he was trying to avoid.
"Think you're going somewhere?" Aiden sneered.
The blond jumped as the other male roughly grabbed a hold of his neck. A firm pressure slowly started to build as he struggled underneath Aiden's grip. He shakily brought his arms up to push the other away, but was unsuccessful. The brunet closed the space between the two by pressing their bodies together. He adjusted his leg in between the other's, pushing against the pinned boy's groin. Lukas gave out a soft whimper as he desperately tried to push the leg away.
"Now look at the mess you've caused." Aiden snarled at the trapped male. He tightened his grip and leaned close, "You couldn't just leave well enough alone could you?"
Lukas could barely decipher the words being spoken to him. Everything felt muffled, his vision went hazy, he couldn't think properly. His mind was filled with flashbacks of Jesse. He and the other hadn't always got along but the hero would never hurt him like this. There were too many sensations coursing through him at once it made him dizzy. Tears involuntarily started to fill in his eyes as everything started to go dark, "A...Aiden..." he choked out.
