Chapter 12

Brandon
This Time I Might Just Disappear.

"Hey Petey?" Choco hummed softly, tossing his arms around my shoulders. I, being taller than him by a few inches, leaned back in my desk chair to peck his lips.

"Yes lovely?"

"Have you talked to Vik or Lachlan lately?"

I nod slightly, pulling up our skype conversation from before.

"He messaged me about the dreams he's been having around 1 am. I replied and I guess he hasn't gone back to sleep because I haven't slept either."

"Dreams? Which dreams?"

I quickly explained what happened and how Vik didn't, or hasn't, told Lachlan yet. Choco nodded at this, muttering unrecognizable words and curses under his breath. A soft sigh left the black haired males mouth and he left a kiss on my cheek.

"This isn't good Brandon." A ping of regret stabbed my heart as he whispered my real name. God I hated my real name.

"And why is that?"

His dark eyes flicked over our conversation once more. "First Merome, then Jess meeting Mitch a day before the set date, Vik's dreams, Mitch has been telling me about he's panicking over Jerome because  he seems distance, what if this all means something? What if fate decides to fuck us all over like it did with Kara?"

I felt the blood leave my face and I quickly adjusted my beanie to keep my hair out of my eyes and sweater sleeves to cover my hands. "We don't talk about Kara, Choco."

"You're going to have too Pete, you have to remember to forget." His voice was low, soft and almost scary as I watched as many emotions, rage and distaste being two of them, flickered in his eyes. "Kara was the past and now I'm the future. Think about it. What if this is all some fucked up game god decided to put us in?"

I went silent. Trying to process the information and worry that leaked from his words. Personally, I didn't believe in any God, I believed in evolution as well as fate. Fists clenched to keep myself from shaking, I breathed in and blinked. Eyes on my computer screen, I noticed Vik was typing.

"I don't know if this is a game, or if this is simply how fate decided their lives would go. It's gonna turn out okay, and if it doesn't then we have to deal with the horrible decision it made."  

He went silent, eyes on on my face. I supposed he was trying to figure out what I was thinking about. He sighed as my computer pinged with a Skype noise. 

[ ShootingStar ]: Yeah. I just, am a odd ball filled with anxiety right now. Lachlan's still asleep, fucker just fell asleep when I woke up. Mitch is texting me about Jess right now, by the way.

I quickly typed up a reply. Choco sighing to himself and walking away.

 [ PeteyHuttJr ]:  Positivity likes to kiss Negativity but Negativity can only sigh in response. Negativity appreciates Positivity, they need each other to live. But why did they choose now to fall in love in? The universe can only have so much room for both.

[ ShootingStar ]: Seems like a violent pixelation of misunderstandings.

[ PeteyHuttJr ]:  The affair with Positivity and Negativity continue, they are are always falling in love in the center of the universe. 

I leaned back in my chair, huffing slightly. Running a hand through my hair I watched as Vik replied.

[ ShootingStar ]: mmhm. Can Lachlan and I come over by the way ? I'm bored as hell.
