Chapter two

BITTERSWEET


"If you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best"


Darkness, I was drowning in a pool of black nightmares, I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe, or talk, my senses were not working, yet I could hear voices in my head, voices talking between themselves, confusing, disturbing, I could not hear them clearly, as it all sounded distorted; Were they just voices in my head? Or were they real?


- "(...) You can't just go around hurting people!... I can't believe this, where did you get him?... He'll be fine... let him rest for a few hours... I'll go out for a bit. Love, please take care of him..." - said the voice


"That's right! I was with this good looking guy, the handsome one, yeah... a prince with a villain's heart. We had rough sex, not to mention the agony it left. But I passed out". Slowly, I opened my eyes, feeling a very strong headache, realizing I was in the same room I had been before, just a different bed.


- You're awake! - said a voice next to me

- Yeah, but please don't raise your voice

- Heh... I'm sorry. Are you okay? Does your body hurt? What's your name? - he asked in a concerned tone

- The answers are; yes, yes and the last one depends

- Why?

- Ha, ha... I like that curious look of yours. If you wanna have sex with me, that makes me Natsu, but if you don't, then I'm Benjamin - I said trying to mock him

- I don't want to have sex with you! - his face showed terror, I burst out laughing

- Ha, ha, ha, ha---owe! Hurts... Argh, my body hurts. Huh?! Where is that guy? The one I was with, he hasn't paid me! Shit! Did he run away? This is frustrating

- No, I didn't - said that delicious voice of his, my blond god. "Ben, stop! He treated you like shit" - You said it would be the most pleasurable sex in my life, and it wasn't.

- You looked like you were enjoying, I must say I've had much better clients, at least some who not only think about themselves. You didn't even put on a condom, what if I get sick?

- Sick? You? I should be the one worrying. You must have something contagious.

- Low! - I sad with a scowl - I don't! I never have sex with my clients without protection, nor I kiss them, you broke my two rules. It's just that you're like an animal in heat, trying to mark his territory

- Ha! Funny. You are not my territory. I have way better options

- Sorry to interrupt you guys, but I believe you should rest - he said pointing at me - and you - he looked at the blondie - have to go to class

- First of all, you animal have to pay me

- My name is not animal

- Then what is it? - Oh I was dying to know

- Bruno, this candy-like boy is Manuel and the one who didn't let me kick you out of here is Gael, but he's not here

- I see. Tell me, is Gael handsome? I want to meet him

- Don't try that, stupid. He's Manuel's boyfriend - "Oh Gosh! Should I say sorry?" Manuel turned bright pink. So he was gay. Great, I was in paradise - Also, here's your money

- Sorry, but this is too much - I said after counting the money he had given me, more than the double that I got paid normally, he laughed

- Are you cheaper than that? Then take it as an alms - after those words, he just got out of the room, leaving Manuel and I alone


"Yeah, like your money would give me back the body you destroyed". It had been very scary, the way he held my body. With rage, trying to overcome his hatred with me. However there was something lingering, his smell, that manly, intoxicating smell of his that I could still perceive, unwilling to leave. No other person I had slept with had such pleasant fragrance. His hands were cold, refreshing my hot skin, gripping my hips. Sex with him had been everything but comfortable, I could still feel him inside me and I also wanted to hug him, wondering what could have made him so angry, so mean and at the same time, what had made those eyes so cold.


I was still lying on the bed, some minutes later, the sweet guy offered me something like a breakfast and we kept talking for a bit. Manuel was the shy type, smiling with every foolishness I said. To be quite honest, he was the kind of person you easily fall in love with, all cute, with that brown hair of his, curly in the tips, adorning his perfect face, and those green eyes, shining, full of life... full of love.


You would think he had always been happy, that he was raised in a warm home with lovable parents, but on the contrary, he had it rough too, though he just gave me small details at that time, about how he had lived far away from here, but he had to come to live with his uncle, which turned into an awful, abusive situation. Until he met his amazing "hero", as Manuel calls him, yeah sound unrealistic but what else do you call someone who takes your hand before you lose hope? "Gael".


Manuel described Gael as a very kind person and a medicine student. A ray of light in his life. Always protecting him, taking care of things, worrying about others, funny, smart, responsible and Bruno's best friend, who by the way was totally opposite to Gael. Bruno, from Manuel's point of view, had always been a cold guy, not giving importance to anything, easygoing, talkative and partygoer, there could be two or three days in which he didn't come home, also someone who didn't let the others into his life. The only one who actually knew him was Gael. So, if I wanted to know more about the blondie, I had to meet Gael. Something that wouldn't take me too long, because just as we were talking, the door opened, and let me see a black haired, well-built beauty with black hair.






Author's note:

The boy from the picture is Manuel, a very sweet guy. This chapter is shorter that I wanted it to be, but, I want to save for the next part. See you!
