He keeps finding me

1.18

Noah looked at Jay again, his eyes drifting over him, he said sarcastically, "I thought you seeing my true self last time was enough to keep you at least a certain distance away from me. Let me clear it up for you then." As he stood next to Jay already he just kneeled and faced him looking into the others eyes.
"I think it is very creepy that you watched me while I was asleep, especially when we had known each other for like a day. Even now, we are not close. We have known each other for not even three or four days and you say disgusting shit like that? Even touching me as you please? I am NOT your toy, and I am sure as hell, not your wife," the last word he spoke with utter disgust before continuing, "So I think it is best for the both of us if you keep your hand off of me. Right?"

The next thing that happened door opened and Francis walked out with the backpack in question. Walking in with a smile and then this smile slowly faded as he saw the situation. Jay was on the floor, hands on his crotch. Noah kneeled next to him, looking at Jay with a sharp glint and Maison just standing a meter or so away watching what Noah did. The small second of Francis analyzing the situation was enough for Noah to change faces from a cobra to a worried little bunny.
Looking accusingly at Maison, "Why would you do that to your brother? I get that he touched me inappropriately, but you didn't have to kick him." Noah looked like he was trying to look mean but really couldn't.
Maison raised his eyebrows, "Well if he wasn't such an ass I wouldn't have had to." Then Maison crossed his arms looking annoyed at Francis, whose face already built up quite a sweat.

Francis didn't know what to do, a fight broke out between the grandsons of the base owner. There wasn't a protocol for this. Jay who was on the floor couldn't believe that his brother, who searched high and low for him, betrayed him just like that.
Not believing it still he opened his mouth, "It was-"
"Me, I am so sorry brother, but I have fallen in love with Noah too. And seeing you treat him so disrespectfully I couldn't stand still anymore," Maison interrupted him, looking really melodramatic.
Noah blushed and hid his face behind his hands, "No, you two can't fight because of me. I am not worth it, your brotherhood is more important than your love for me."
Maison almost laughed but caught himself before helping his brother up.
Looking really serious he looked Jay in his eyes saying, "I promise to never fight with you over a boy again." Jay who was mega confused just mechanicaly nodded.
"Wonderfull, because I really didn't want to stand between your brother's relationship," Noah said walking first to Francis getting his backpack back, and then to Jay's side holding one arm as to help Jay walk.

Throwing his head in the direction of Francis, Noah said almost angelicly, "Thank you, I am so sorry you had to see all that."
Francis smiled a little, inside his head, he was so relieved that the situation had been cleared. The two helped Jay walk to the elevator, Maison pressed the button and Noah was petting his arm as if to show compassion. Inside the elevator, both of them dropped Jay and began to laugh. Jay fell to the floor and was glad he didn't fall on his family jewels. The elevator opened on floor three, Maison only made a gesture with his hands so Jay would get up. Angry and hurt he sprung up and walked away, Maison looked after him a bit sad.
Noah looked at Maison, "I think we overdid it."
Maison nodded his mouth raised in a slight arc, "Maybe, but I already noticed your face when he called you his wife. Your brows were crunched and your mouth was deformed a bit into disgust. They were only microexpressions though, so Jay or the Dou didn't really pick it up."

Noah's vision was blurry and a memory swam over the face of Maison. The long red hair shrunk into platin blond short hair, the sharp-edged face formed into more of a V-shape and his slightly golden brown skin shifted into a pale color. The only thing remaining were those ice-blue eyes, staring right through him.

...

The pale platinum-haired boy stared at him, his eyes full of mischief as he walked beside Felix, the pale boy smirked a little.
"Come on why won't you tell me what got you so angry," the pale boy asked. Felix stood still, his hood still covering his face, but even under his hood, no one would know what emotion he was feeling. Yet the boy in front of him, he knew.
He always knew if he was in a good mood, feeling sad or like right now angry.
Helpless he looked at the pale boy, "Listen, Val, I appreciate you trying to cheer me up, but it really isn't something you or anyone else can fix." Val didn't count that as an answer though as he still followed Felix who was walking away from him.
"Why darling~, last I checked there is nothing I can't kill," he said without a bother. Like talking about murder is a normal thing.
Felix looked at Val, "I don't want you to kill anyone." Felix let out a frustrated sigh, then slouched and mumbled, "Why is it that you always know what I feel?"
Val laughed slightly, "Because to me, I don't even need to see your face your body language tells me everything I need to know. And you're mad because your hand has been turning into a fist in a 2-minute cycle, you know fist, no fist, and so on. Another thing you do when you're mad is, your walking style. It is like you want to get that anger out so you walk, left, left, then normal for about five to eight minutes, and then right, right. Most of the time you repeat that pattern until you are home."
A bit shocked Felix looked at Val, "How do you remember stuff like that?"
Val smiled, he swung an arm around Felix and said, "Because you are important to me darling. I wouldn't want to lose you just, because I don't know your habits. And I know you find this physical touch right now kind of nice, but hate yourself for it inside. It's okay to feel feelings you know, we are humans after all." Felix only looked at the floor the whole way home, as they reached his house. Val transformed back to Maison. As if this talk just now had all been an illusion.

...

'Maybe it was an illusion. But at least now I know, his name was Val, but that is only a nickname. His real name is Valentin, Valentin Brassard. Why did I forget him, we have known each other long before the threatening message on my 16th birthday,' Noah thought to himself, not realizing Maison furrowing his brows. Maison didn't know why he had a deja-vou feeling, as he said those things to Noah.
He couldn't grasp it though and before he could think Noah said something, "Sorry, I was thinking of something. I hope I didn't ignore you."
Maison raised his hands, "No you are fine I was in my own thoughts too. Well, we should go to Jay and apologize." Noah nodded, "Yeah, we were kind of mean weren't we."
Maison laughed, "Yeah, but the confused look on both their faces was worth it. About your true self, I expected you to snap eventually. You didn't look at all as docile as you pretended to be, that was kind of why I didn't say anything. That and I haven't seen my brother since I was eleven years old. To be honest I don't know how to reconcile with him." Noah nodded, and they both began to walk to the common room of the floor.

Noah suggested, "How about you go with me over to the Dou first? They have known Jay for half a year, if not one year and a half. They were in senior year together after all. I am trying to befriend Dou anyway, so you can come with me. AFTER we apologized to Jay of course." Maison smiled and nodded. At the common room they realized what a task it would be to even find Jay, the room was packed with people. It was as big as the fourth-floor arena. Noah could only imagine what the cafeteria on the second floor would look like. Noah wanted to give up if it wasn't for the bright red hair shining through the crowd. Noah could bet one to three crystals, that this hair belonged to Ben. He grabbed a cuff of Maison and pointed at the bright red hair. Maison understood immediately and they walked to the redhead. And as Noah expected it was Ben, and he was gesturing wildly as he looked at Jay who had his head in his hands. Walking closer they could even hear the conversation.
"-to tell me that your brother who searched for you for what? Seven years, fell head over heels for Noah, and is trying to steal him from you?" Jay looked so down, "Yes, he just stole my wife."

Noah the "Wife", was standing four meters away looking uncomfortable.
Zenix who sat on the armrest of the armchair, Jay was sitting on just asked confused, "Listen Jay we love you and all, but under no circumstance is Maison in love with Noah. That guy looks at us all like we killed you. And he looks at Noah like he is silently judging him if he is perfect for you. There is no way."
Ben then nodded too, "AND, if anything the relationship between you and Noah will crumble because you do a lot of things he doesn't want. Like please turn your horny ass down, you like him fine. But you don't want to become a rapist."
Jay looked shocked at Ben, and Zenix nodded at Ben's sentence. Jay then stuttered a bit, wanting to say something to that he noticed his brother and Noah. Seeing Jay's surprised expression they looked in the direction he was looking at.
Zenix smiled and stood up, "Noah! You made it here in one peace, we already heard what you did upstairs. As a prank the BOMB, really! But Jay is a softie at heart so please tell him he was the unfortunate part of your prank."
Noah chuckled and Maison also stood right in front of Jay, "I am sorry we hurt your feelings, but please don't do things like that anymore. If you weren't my brother I would have kicked you and then made sure you wouldn't be able to stand up anymore. Because if you did those things to anyone else, you would be in jail for sexual harassment. Especially when Noah showed it in his face, that he didn't like it."

Jay looked pissed as he stood up, "But couldn't he have just said that? Always enduring it when clearly he is capable of fighting for himself? Giving me false hopes."
Noah looked at Jay his eyes changing to the cobra, "You use your looks to attract other people, why can't use them so I don't have to fight so hard? Why can't I use them so that when others underestimate me, I can surprise them? After all not everyone gets hard just from watching someone fight. Or has the urge to touch someone else just because they look cute. I wanted to apologize, but you know what? Now I want to shove that apology up your ass, wake up, this is not the school with horny teenagers. We are in an apocalypse, and even if some people have decided to throw those morals away, we don't have to. We can be better, we are better, we are working on a cure and we can change the life here. So stop thinking about bedroom matters and get your head in the game of survival. Because if your grandfather wasn't the owner of this base, I don't think you would last a month without a sexual offense." Noah said his words, turned around, and walked to his chared bedroom. Not caring what they would say while he was away, he didn't care anymore. Void wanted more of Felix, fine that Raven will get more of Felix.
