My Puppet

Date?!

Alex's POV

This kid has to have some sort of feelings towards Dylan, but what type of feelings are they? I should ask the little birdie to see what information he has on this kid. I take a deep breath and then whistle. Without a second to spare, he lands right in front of me.

Sky: You called.

Alex: Did you manage to get his pills?

Sky: Straight to business I see. Whatever happened to Hello, how are you?

Alex: Hello, how are you? Did you get the pills or not?

Sky: Yup but it was not easy. He has them heavily guarded by this big lizard and guess what, that lizard breathes fire.

Alex: So, you almost became a burnt chicken nugget, funny.

Sky: I guess you don't want the pills then.

He starts to walk away from me. I grab his hand and stop him in his tracks. He turns around with a smirk on his face.

Sky: You just can't keep your hands off me, can you?

Alex: Shut up, you flirt.

Sky: You like it though. I am irresistible after all.

Alex: Pills, please.

Sky: Take me out on a date first.

Date? He's joking right? We just met and he wants to go on a date with me, a villain whose face is plastered on wanted posters all over the city. I don't understand he's motive at all. These young heroes are truly something. I say young but we are the same age.

Alex: This isn't a game little birdie. I need those pills for Dylan. Once he starts getting those headaches he's going to need them. If he doesn't get them the pain will increase and he will end up losing his sanity. You do not want that kid to be completely broken, do you?

Sky: I didn't say I'm not giving the pills to you. All I'm saying is I want one date. I just want to get to know you.

Alex: I'm a villain.

Sky: That's just a stupid word society created for anyone that doesn't fit their perfect world. I don't care what you I, I care about who you are. So, what do you say, one date?

I know he's different, that's what I find interesting about him. Yet I can't allow myself to get close to him. I know what happens if I get attached to someone, Ethan will use them to keep me in place. I can't do that to him. I'm not a bad guy, I know that, but I've done some bad things. Yet I want to believe that I can do some good things as well. I want to be selfish; I want to feel something other than fear and pain. It's just one date, what could go wrong?

Alex: Fine but I am expecting you to treat me like a prince little birdie.

Sky: Of course I will, who do you think I am?

He then leaves. I can't help but wonder if this is a mistake though. Ethan if he finds out about this it won't end will. He might kill me and him. If I'm dead, how will I be able to free Dylan from this mess that I created. As long as he's free then I don't care what happens to me. He deserves to enjoy a life that is not manipulated by that psychopath. I won't allow Ethan to use Dylan to make me obey him. He's already using my family to keep in my place I refuse to allow him add Dylan to that list.

I arrive back at Dylan's apartment, and I am greeted with silence. Looks like he did sleep early after all. I reach his door and open it. There he is sleeping peacefully. I jump into bed, and he immediately cuddles up to my chest.

This reminds me of the time Kai used to sleep with me. He was such a brat, but he was my little brother, and I love him. I hope he's grown into a good person. I wish I could see my family again, but my fate has already been sealed when I shook Ethan's hand, so I won't even dream about it anymore. I just need to focus on helping Dylan regain his memories and free him from this nightmare. Deep down I know doing this won't be easy especially on Dylan. He'll be confused and in pain. I need those pills and the only way to do that is go on a date. I don't even remember the last time I've went on a date. Do I even have nice clothes to wear? Maybe I should ask Scarlet for some advice but then she'll get nosy. I should go back home and see her soon though or Ethan will get suspicious about why I haven't been around much. 

I'll just go home, tell him that Dylan is setting in and he is getting close to his classmates. That the plan is in motion, and we will find out everyone's powers in that school. Then I'll hangout with Scarlet. I'll go through my closet and find some decent clothes. Then I'll go on that date and get those pills for Dylan. I can't help but wonder though if he truly meant what he said. He thinks that this date will change things, but I doubt it. I am a villain, and I can't do anything about that. I can't change my fate, even if I did, I'll still have to pay for my crimes. These hands have blood on them after all. I think this date will just end up making him change his opinion on me. I won't get attached, he's just a playboy. I bet he doesn't even think this is a serious date, I bet this is just a game to him.

I won't let myself fall for him. No matter how good looking and charming he is I won't fall for him. I will resist and if I do fall for him, I hope he does catch me. If he doesn't, I'll just cook him alive. I do like me some roasted chicken after all.
