Days passed by and nights hurdled songs of peace. Apo loved being around people and working along with them, helping them out in their chores, hanging out with them, partying around and thinking they all together can rule the world in the name of God. That was all visible from the corners of the buildings that belonged to the church. Bible would daily step close to the walls and watch the sight, chugging in the visions of seeing his pretty sneaky little assistant be all innocent, naughtily running around like a child. Oh, how does he swear that he could smile watching the scenes that pleasure his heart with warmth and familiarity. But his smile also dies down everytime he remembers every day of its previous night constantly. The soft pecks on his lips had started to turn more heavier and aggressive, that mere kiss has been going so far that it required the person to literally climb on top of the priest and devour it's selfish needs.

Bible clicks his tongue realising that this unwanted dirty acts of homosexuality wouldn't have taken further advantage for he would have said something on the day itself. Patience is a key to every problem, and believing the myth, shoving all his faith in God, Bible procrastinated on giving a hard religious lecture to slap all the sins out of his assistant. You could group it under harrassment at work place. Bible being the priest all forgiving, a spitting image of a messanger, knew that giving a chance to the lost can make the sheep walk back on its track that leads to the gate of heaven, but he pleads for fogiveness for he isnt gods strongest soldier as he even planned on dragging that filthy criminal's ass out of the holy property. But he couldn't, which does not mean he wouldn't, atleast today. He will give back what apo deserves, a grand teaching serving reflection over all his actions this past few days that have mentality destroyed a priest's image.

Bible this time purposely kept the door to his quarters welcoming. He might seem the type to be an airhead at a particular time, but the priest can actually hear every little sound very clearly. Light footsteps could be heard, a frown that had focused to nothingness finally rested for it found what it seaked. The priest could feel apo's presence right beside him immediately after he heard a knob scrape against unpolished wood producing a frictious sound enough to assume that the guest had locked the door.
"You shouldn't keep your door open, it can be dangerous"
Bible gritted his teeth underneath his perfect composure. He wanted to talk back and lecture an hour so bad. He had purposely gone to bed late, knowing that apo, being the assistant he was, was well aware about his schedule and Bible wasn't preparing to celebrate any eucharist for the next three days. That was because, Bible was in-charge of welcoming a senior priest who seemed to be resting in the middle of his travel till he reached the eastern coast parishes. APO knew of this all, therefore, keeping that in mind, Bible was indeed going to rest late, for he had no morning mass so he could doze his dawn off and rest. If he would have rested early, there could be chances he might drift off to sleep and miss the chance of teaching some manners to his so called assistant.

Silence draped all around and apo chucked softly, the sweet melody somehow managed to make Bible skip a heart beat and he was almost tempted to withdraw the order of beating sense into Apo. The priest believed that apo was actually going to be strict with his dealings in God's house when he had been sinning all the while. it disappointed his guardian so much.

You might be gods strongest fighter, but that does not stop the devil from playing the smartest tricks on you. The devil wants you to sin and when you do, there's no going back, untill you receive the salvation or else you end up worshiping sin itself.

The priest finally felt his mattress below press judging that apo might have already started to process of hiking back up on Bible, caging his between his chicken arms. A few seconds later, Bible felt his stomach burst when a heavy weight threw themselves on the seat. Bible wanted to cry for it hurt, but it seemed not to concern the man on top of his demeanor. Slowly Bible felt differences in the previous weight as a light milky breath started to touch his face. His heart raced when he realised that apo was going to do it again, the lost ship was going to kiss the priest again. Apo's kissing has no skill, it made it even worst for Bible wasn't that of a patient man when it comes to private matters. He felt the urge to hold down apo and eat him alive, teaching him what actual kisses taste like many times.

Bible felt a slight touch when he immediately shot his eyes open to meet those of shock and burning fright. The prey commenced it's guts for the run but the priest immediately caught the incusbus in hand, his masculine indexes marking a shade of maroon on the honey skin under the moon. APO grasped in tiny, appearing timid infront of a body shorter than him. His hazel eyes couldn't afford to meet the Sharp gaze that would cut him off immediately the minute it snaps.
"...I'm sorry"
Apo weeped in sound volume, tears meeting the floor when Bible jerked him off to the surface. The remarkable strength hurt apo as he soon after comforted himself over the soft carpet that clothed the wood tiles.

"I'm so disappointed in you apo..."
The small weeps dared not stop as they were the only sound that accompanied the priests heavy forthcomings. Apo curled himself in a ball apologizing every second under his breath, broken for he was forced to commit to his disgusting acts.

"I wouldn't mind if you had any sought of relationship with a man, but why would you run after a priest and worst the guardian who saved you from falling into the depths of hell...did you indeed plan to abandon god from the start and snap the thread to peacefully rot in the place where you deserve to belong in now?"
Apo shook in disapproval asking to be noticed for he meant it all but at the same time nothing meant at all. The priest calmed down, tuned his tone and crouched down to meet the same height to the man who whimpered under his eyes. The sight was indeed pleasing, Bible's subconscious minds started playing tricks when he felt a strong urge to treate his boner under his baggy pants. But that wasn't the point now.
"Apo, my child, did you actually wish to abandon all of your father's teaching? Why would you do it?"
Soft politeness sang towards the man crying out his heart. But before the priest could further confront, apo's hands immediately caught onto the neck of Bibles nightwear and pulled the priest in a wet kiss that considered of only smooching over his soggy lips. Bible stood frozen in his space, starstruck. Apo slowly retreated back, his aggressive hands now giving up and sliding down lifeless.
"Because I like you...I have fallen in love with you"
Something Bible did not expect but it was also something Bible expected to be receiving as a deceiving answer. But the confession appeared way more real then he could ever imagine.

Bible is a priest, and he is not supposed to cater his desires to any of the worldly pleasures. His living is as simple as that of a monk, who preaches everywhere he goes and dusts off his shoes to places that do not welcome him. God is only love and god loves him, his life is dedicated to the power that keeps him going in preaching the good news about the Son. Lust is a sin and love is worship, he dare not compromise to both human and God. For he serves God and serves only him, thats his sole responsibility.

Bible responds nothing, but stands on his feet and goes to the washroom and splashes his face with water cleaning off everything that he thinks contagious. Apo felt torn for this act making him finally believe he was worthless and was not worthy of anyone's love anymore. Returning back, Bible strides to fix his bed as if nothing had happened at all. Everything that happened, vanished in thin air and was forgotten within seconds in the universe.
"Apo, I appreciate your feelings towards me. Thank you for loving me...but it is good for us both if we end it here itself. Forget about this Apo, I'll forgive you this one last time. You have a life of your own, you can live however you want, but never forget, do not displease God. Remember, I am your guardian here...and keeping it that way is the best for us...go to you room Apo...good night"
