At Long Last (book 3 Spandor collection)(BoyxBoy)

Chapter 45

Andor's Pov

I grip Jordan's hand tightly as we walk towards Mot's house. I never wanted to see him again but Jordan insisted it.

"Andor!" A female voice shouts. I let go of Jordan's hand when I see Maddi standing a few feet away from us.

"M-Maddi!" I shout and run to her. She wraps her arms around me as I do her.

"Where have you been?!" I ask but all I get in response is a sob. "Maddi? You ok?" I ask as her tears soak through my shirt.

"I-I-I've missed y-you so much." She sobs and I hold her tighter. I feel her calm a bit so I attempt to pull away. Before our hug breaks she whispers something that sends chills down my spine.

"He was my god."

Jordan's Pov

I watch, smiling, as Maddi and Andor break their hug. They have blank faces so I decide to ask them about it. Before I get the chance to, Mot comes outside.

"Maddi! I thought you were in your room. I didn't realize you were outside. Have you met Andor and Jordan?" Mot gives us a smile. "I know them! And you don't need to act like I'm a little girl just because I'm your younger cousin." Maddi says with a humorous tone. Um... Cousins!?!?!

"Wait, you're cousins!?!?" Andor exclaims. Maddi nods. "I thought I told you about Mot. He is my favorite cousin. I'm living with him until I can get on my feet." Maddi gives us a smile.

"Would you like to come in?" Mot asks us. I walk over and take Andor's hand. "That would be lovely." I say and we all walk inside.

Maddi squeals. "I knew you guys would get engaged sooner or later!!! You are my OTP." I share a confused look with Andor. "OTP?" We say simultaneously.

"One True Pairing." Mot says and takes a sip of his soda. "It is the ultimate ship." Like a boat? What? Maddi sighs when she notices the look still on our faces.

"A ship is when you want two people to get together. OTP is the ultimate ship." She gives us, what I'm guessing is a brief explanation. "Okay... That's cool, I guess?" I say.

"So how's life for you?" Andor asks Maddi, changing the subject, which I'm grateful for. I didn't understand any of that.

"Life for me is....well ok. Could be better." She answers. I notice a red streak in her dark brown hair.

"What about you two? Now that things have settled down here." Andor sighs when Maddi says this. That's when it hits me, the real reason we came here.

"Jordan what's wrong?" Mot asks due to my watering tears. "We can talk about it later." I whisper and release Andor's hand.

"We've been uhh parenting actually. Ianita, Jordan and Ianite's child." Andor answers, Maddi looks confused as most do.

"It was a spell. Ianite wanted a child and I couldn't say no." I explain. This causes am awkward silence that, of course, I have to break. "Whatever happened to Justice? I've tried asking Tom but he just pushes it away."

"She umm she's been pretty scared lately, but who hasn't been. It took a huge toll on her anxiety. I'm pretty sure Troye has been taking care of her." I just nod and take hold of Andor's hand again.

Mot starts talking about Alyssa but slowly his voice fades away. The room starts swaying from side to side. It lights up a purple red color.

Go to the end boyo.

What is this?! Dianite? Is that you?

Don't worry about what's going on right now and listen to my damn instructions! Bring Mot with you, no one else.

Andor's Pov

"Jordan.....Jordan! Jordan love can you hear me? Jordan!!"

He jolts upright. "Mot we gotta go, now." Jordan's breathless. "Jordan w-"

"Let's go. Andor stay with Maddi." Mot instructs. No! That's not allowed!

"No! If you get to go I g-" Jordan's kiss cuts me off. "I'd bring you if I could." He whispers.

Mot's Pov

Jordan leads me to the end. From there we go to Ianite's grave sight. There's a purple bow with a fiery red string and purple, red, and green arrows for Jordan.

He picks it up carefully. "Bow Of Balance?" He says and gives me a worried look. "Ianite's dead."

I also get a bow. It's red with the same fire red string as Jordan's. "Dianite's Short Bow." I say more than read, I'd recognize this bow from yards away.

My vision goes hazy and I grab hold of Jordan's arm to steady myself.

Use it wisely. You're the only person who can hold it.

"Mot you think they're telling us something? Why did we get gifts and no one else?" Jordan asks. I want so badly to kiss the worried tone from his lips.

"Bow of Balance......" My voice trials off. "Jordan Spark killed Dia, which killed Ianite, therefore throwing odd the balance. We have to kill Spark."

Good job boyo

Thanks Dia. "I h-have to kill." Jordan looks like he could cry. "Jordan don't cry we can do this. We can!" I say soothingly.

Tears fall from Jordan's eyes one by one. I take a deep breath before pressing my lips to his. He kisses back causing me to melt into the kiss.

"I'd never let anything happen to you. Never in a million years." I say as he sobs into my shoulder.
