Lapsus Linguae - Blade, Dan Heng

19. It was supposed to be just Us

"Allora... Non vieni nemmeno per un abbraccio?" (So... You're not coming closer even for a hug?) Alberto asked faking a sad stare.

Dan Heng felt himself cold and sad the more he was looking at him. His best friend somehow managed to get to his place from Italy, just how fucking weird was all of that.

"Hey, you." Blade was annoyed "You better speak a language I can understand, it's unpolite, you know?" he asked, showing off his mad stare. He had no reason to fake, he was an alpha and he was intoxicating the air where the two were living with his pheromones, it was making him insane.

"Sorry" Alberto spoke in english "I am here manly to speak to Dan Heng" his blue eyes locked on Blade "Didn't know he had some company already" he laughed a little

"How... How did you know I was here?!" Dan Heng asked, leaving Blade's hands without even noticing as his hands were already moving nervously to emphatise what he was saying

Alberto stepped a little further "Woah, you sound like you're definitely not happy to see me" he said annoyed "Our families have been together for a while before that little mess. I didn't take much to discover where the golden child travelled. Don't you think everyone in the university was dead worried? Out of nowhere one day you didn't come... Days passed and so I asked" he explained making Dan Heng feel just dizzy

"Sorry, I... I..." Dan Heng tried to keep himself calm under Blade's surprised stare. Why was he even trying that? He had to be furious! "I asked the wrong question" he said to then lay the hands on his own hips "Why the fuck are you here in China?!" he exclaimed annoyed and Alberto laughed a little "Don't fucking laugh! This is all creepy, for real" he muttered to then get closer to Blade instinctively and hold again his hand.

"Sheesh, you forgot about me this easily?" Alberto commented, leaving a glance on their hands holding.

Dan Heng looked away, trying to get a hold of himself "You talk like we part ways in good terms."

Alberto sighed "Indeed, that's why I came here to... apologise." he looked awfully serious and Dan Heng's eyes for a moment shined "I know you didn't expect me to do that... We were best friends and I... was blinded by your pheromones, because you like me, don't you?" he asked and Dan Heng opened up his eyes

"Like... you?!" Dan Heng exclaimed and Alberto tilted his head

"You did start that. That day, I lost control because of you! We were sitting together in class and you literally were releasing pheromones... so many even your alpha friend could lose it" he explained and Dan Heng bit his lips nervously

"I liked you indeed, I might... Fuck... Did I release too much of my pheromones?" he muttered to himself and Blade held his hand strongly.

"Are you listening to yourself? You liked that idiot?" Blade asked in a whisper and Dan Heng looked away feeling embarassed

"Why are you still here, don't you understand this should be a private conversation? Dan Heng shall we go in your apartment? I am sure you miss tons of things from Italy" he smiled gently "I made sure to buy your favorite snacks before travelling"

Blade grit his teeth "No way you will get any closer to him. Is this madness? You should just get the hell out of here" he looked at Dan Heng "Dan Heng... What's happening are you feeling okay? Tell this clown to get away already" he sighed annoyed and Alberto grit his teeth

"It's not your call. For the records. I know Dan Heng more than you. Who the fuck are you even?!" he stepped closer and Blade laughed a little

"I know Dan Heng enough to know what he likes and what he doesn't like. For example, to put it simply" he stepped further, leaving Dan Heng surprised "He likes me. He doesn't like you."
