His Bet

Chapter Forty

Ace

Me and Red decided to watch the movie after breakfast so we head upstairs and he make sure no one's going to intrude us. I just shake my head on that thought.. Well, its really been a while since I have watched a movie with Red alone. Brix is the last guy I had the chance to watch with. Oh goddamn bitch. Why do he always pop somewhere for a sudden and even in my head? That man really got me with his caring skills I should say.

We talk about some things and the bond was back. Sure I still throw a death glare to him for being so showy, I needed to throw him also a slight punch on the arm to stop messing up with me. I don't know what got onto him to just blurt flirting lines on me. It really somewhat scares me but maybe he just missed me that muchso I just shrug that stupid idea off my head. Its almost lunch when we finish watching a movie so I get down and check out what's for lunch, Red said he's going to clean our mess up. When I got downstairs Tristan and Brix was out of sight and Chris looks pissed off. Do they fought or something?

"Since when they drop off from our games dude?! This isn't like them especially Brix! That dirt bag has something on him he's not telling us." Chris said with gritted teeth. Woah he really is pissed off and because of Brix?

"Just let them be man. As if Brix will be taking back his words about it. The girl hook him up and lured him in. We got nothing to do with that." Kalvin explained maybe trying to calm Chris down.

The girl? Is that me? Or any other girl?

Wait.. What game? I didn't remember them playing another game?

Eavesdropping is never my business but I have a feeling I need to hear more. It gave me a nervous feeling it has something to do with me at some degree so I stepped backwards to keep my appearance out of their sight.

"Maybe they're right man. Tris and Brix are now out of this game. Don't think this is gonna be fun anymore." Simon shrug.

Oh.. So they're fighting over a game? And what's about 'the girl'?

This doesn't make sense..

I feel so confused but jumped when Red suddenly appears in front of me. I placed a hand in my chest and shut my eyes for a while. Its okay Ace.. Its just Red.. Breathe Ace just breathe..

"Hey, you okay?" Red asked me and grabbed me on my elbow.

I squeal for another time when he grabs me by my elbow so I jerk my elbow and back away. "Don't." I breathe with a hoarse tone.

I heard him saying something but I can't make a word out of that. I was clouded by my thoughts and I suddenly feel panic rising on me. Stupid! Why now?! I can't.. I can't.. This can't be happening.

To stop building panic I bit my arm more hard than necessary to fight back my panic. As the time I felt my teeth dig down on my skin there was a sudden jolt that brought me back to reality. I heave a sigh..
