Crimson 13

chapter 30: Missing veiled

"I'm gonna go take a quick shower, don't go through my stuff. Not like you'll be able to" Daniel spoke in a bored tone, still annoyed at the fact Nash was acting like Vinn was Britney spears or something. Atleast Ms. Britney had actaul talent unlike his brother.

Nash ignored what Daniel said as he left the room, her gaze scanning the surroundings. Daniel's room was painted in a very deep shade of navy blue, a few makeup products on his dresser like Contour and highlighter.. probably to change his face structure a bit, which she didn't really understand why he had to do. As much as she understood he didn't want to be recognised since he was a literal spitting image of Vincent and Mr. Rubyin, people wouldn't focus that much on a random strangers face to recognise him.

Nash kept looking around the messy and littered room until she heard footsteps outside the ajar door.
She very slowly used the lamp cord to slide and use to climb down on the floor, making it safely to lower grounds and started walking towards the door.
After a few minutes of walking she made it to the bedroom door, getting out of the agape door and looked around the very high ceiling that stretched for miles above.
At the end of the wide hallway, she saw Vincent walking in the hallway through the stairs, not paying attention and looking at his phone.

The Fangirl inside Nash screamed wildly, as she didn't notice she was standing in the way and his feet swifted beside her, not crushing her. "Mr. Vinn!" Nash yelled out, trembling from excitement.
Vincent heard a small voice calling from him, Nathan wasn't here, how was there a tiny voice?
He looked at the floor, taking notice of Nash standing slightly behind him.
His eyes widened in surprise, could they have borrower pests in their house?

Vinn was just stuck frozen momentarily until she decided to speak up. "I'm a friend of Daniel's, I'm a big fan!" Nash called out in a voice lodge enough for him to hear clearly.
He connected the dots, his eyes resting into a cunning curve, his lips slightly bent into a knowing smile.

"It's nice to meet you, you are?" Vinn voiced, crouching down on one knee to her level. He was usually annoyed by fans.. but humans... they were a different thing.
In previous concerts and events, somehow someway.. tiny humans often went missing, and as much as their were police reports all over the fact that that kind of thing happened. They connected it to other giant artists who also have similar events happen at their concerts. Humans were too small to see, and as much as a lot of people, human and giant tried to perceive them as equals.. they always ended up Inferior for the police to do an actaul investigation on the case. And vinn took advantage of that fact.. here and there some would go missing...

Nash's mouth coiled in an open grin, fighting the urge to giggle.
'He asked for my name!' She thought in her head, craning her head backwards to be able to get a good look on his creamy, handsome features. "I..I'm Natasha, Though you can call me Nash!" She spoke quickly.

His expression seemed to be getting more sinister, only she couldn't really detect from how distracted by her own Fanning over him. "Glad to meet you Nash.." as about as he was about to ask her to come with him to his room.. for more peckish and greedy desires, Daniel was out of the bathroom across the hallway, taking a second to notice Nash. His eyebrows knitting in frustration and annoyance.

"Oh, you finished" Nash spoke as Daniel came forward, taking her in his hands and screening her away from Vincent.

Both brothers had their eyes boring into eachother before Vincent spoke. "I met your little friend, she's very charming." He chimed, trying to appear friendly, even though his intentions was anything but.

"I know what you're trying to do." Daniel observed, walking back to his room with Nash in hand and slamming the door once more, causing her to cover her ears from the loud slam.

After she took her hands off her ears, she stared disappointedly at Daniel confused as to why he suddenly snatched her up like that as if Vinn was danger or something. "What was that for?!" She exclaimed, looking annoyed as well now.

"I thought it was an unspoken message to not leave my room when I slammed the door the first time, and how I talked about how much Vincenr sucks." Daniel responded, setting her down on his pillow, sitting down on the bed and making her bounce a bit.

"We were just having a friendly conversation, nothing was happening."

"You don't know how my brother is like, so stop making assumptions. I know what he's up to." He insisted, feeling frustrates and desperate wanting her to believe that Vincent was all that.

Nash just seemed unconvinced, staring back at him like he was the dumb one.

He ended up sighing, running his hand through his hair. "Let's just watch a movie or something." He offered, getting out his laptop from his school bag and turning it on, opening up Netflix to watch a movie. Once  picked a movie, he reached his hands towards her, scooping her up and setting her on his chest as he leaned back on the pillow and the laptop on his lap.

Nash decided to ignore it for now and just focus on actaully spending time together. They haven't been together long and we're already having problems.

Meanwhile, Daniel had his mind conflicting between different scenarios. It was like his mind was in a battle with itself, like it was split in red and blue. One side pushing to ignore the issue, and the other coming up with all crazy stories on what Vincent was planning to do if He hadn't come out of the bathroom at the time he did.
What if he had eaten her?
What if he had accidentally stepped on her?
What if Vincent tried hurting her in any way shape or form?

Just ignore it the other side of his mind spoke, seeming to be trying too hard to tell him to relax, and he tried that, focusing on the movie.
