The phoenix and The dragon king

Chapter XVII: Time together

Alois...

Now what...I don't understand anymore. .

This guy- Maverick as he called himself is stuck in this room with me. According to him, this place is for him and ONLY HIS.
Well.  It's not like I am taking it for myself.

"I really don't understand this kind of situation were both in...I know I'm still alive. . Yet I can hardly remember what happened to me." Maverick uttered making me look at him strangely.  I am stuck here like him but I clearly remembered everything that has transpired before loosing my consciousness.

I was really exhausted I can't even lift my finger. That was probably what brought me here. Maybe it was revitalizing my soul. That's one of the lamest thing I've ever thought.

"Tell me. Alois.  What happened to you..?" He tilted his head a little bit to the left making him look like a petulant child. Aww.  So cute..
I really want to gush at his cuteness but I stopped myself from doing so. He might think I'm weird.

His rude remarks also lessened as time passes by. It's like he's becoming more comfortable around me. Thus, making my heart swell with pride. This red haired god is starting to open up to me.

"Are you really deaf or just plainly stupid?" he stated loudly making me glare at him. "Well. ?" He asked raising one of his dark brows. A habit I noticed. It's in his nature. He seemed like a very pampered brat. A pampered rich brat who's much larger than me. He has this personality that obviously show his royalty-like attitude.  How ironic. And did I just called him cute? Well. I take it back.
"Forget it. I understand now..." he grumbled. I stared at him with my questioning gaze but he just stared back at me with those empty eyes of his.

That void expression really is ticking my nerves. How can one be so empty?how can one lack life? Not literally.
" what. ?! What is it that you have understand now. ?" I asked him rather harshly yet he didn't even bother shrugging.  He just cast his glanced away from me making me fumed. Now your giving me silent treatment. ?! What are you a kid or something. ?

"Your really dumb aren't you?"

"Did you just say something. ?!" But instead of answering me. He pulled the covers and layed down to his bed facing the other direction opposite from me. I glared at his back hatefuly.  I'm pretty sure he said something. .. I frowned at that but disregarded my irritation towards the man..

Is this how we'll spend our time together. ? Coz if it really is then I'll probably end up in asylum when i woke up.
.
This jerk!  Argh! 

I want to strangle him to death! Kiss him passionately and lick those abs until he die because of pleasu-

What the heck!!!

Ah! Where did those horrifying yet tempting thoughts came  from. Gee. I really need to pull myself together. Besides how can I think something bad like killing him even using pleasure as my weapon of my choice was quite degrading.

I sighed again. If I stay here long enough, sighing will be my habit.

"You know... I suggest you think some ways to leave out of here." Maverick grumbled as he sat down to his bed. His eyes held nothing. It's completely void.

Doesn't he want me here ? Why would he ? For some reason my heart starts to pump erratically inside my chest. It really is painful- making me gasp as I reach to cup my chest where my heart lies.

"Oh heck! What is happening to me?"

I felt like I was about to explode. My body is shaking yet I can't stop myself.  I can't even calm my self.

No.. I have to stop.  I might have my panic attack right now! No! Not in front of him.

I tried to stand up by pushing myself against the carpeted floor yet when I put my weight to my left foot- my legs gave away.
I really am pathetic. 

I closed my eyes and waited to feel the hard floor... yet the thing is I am at the red haired God's embrace. He smells nice. Vanilla and chocolate. His strong arms held me tight against his chest as he buried his nose to my hair making me shudder. He took a deep breath. He didn't move. And I didn't bother on moving away from him. why would I?

"Are you alright now?" He ask softly while all I can do is nod as an answer. He hummed yet didn't bother releasing me as well. While I basked on his scent... my breathing retired to normal but my heart kept beating rapidly. But even so, it's no longer painful. I felt warmth and gentleness making me snuggle closer to him. He didn't mind though. It really made me happy.

"Please, don't scared me like that again."  He mumbled making breath hitch."I don't know why- but looking at you in that condition, hurts..." it's official,  I am crushing on this man. But I can't blurt that kind of thing. So I just hummed and hugged him even tighter. I didn't care enough when he lifted me and carried me towards his bed, nor when he layed with me on top. All that matters is I'm happy. For a very long time. I felt complete.

Whoever put me into this room same as he- I am really thankful. . .
