This Love, This Hate (DM x TP) COMPLETE

Chapter Twenty-Four

Danny

"Aron?" I call out; I didn't even need him for anything, I just wanted to see if he cared enough to answer me.

I have been locked in my room, crying since we got home. He's been ice cold to me on the way here, and since we got home. I knew he could hear me crying, but he didn't care. I knew he more than likely wasn't going to talk to me, he hasn't said a word to me since I walked into his hospital room a week ago. But, much to my shock, my door creaks open and the handsome Russian walks inside.

"Yes?" Aron says and I internally squeal, his voice is amazing; you have no idea how much I have missed his voice.

"Why don't you have any pets?" I question; it was the first question that popped into my mind so I just went with it.

"I never could decide if I wanted a cat or a dog."

"Oh, I see." I say, looking down at my lap thoughtfully.

"Is that all you needed?" He demands, I could tell he was getting annoyed but I couldn't help it when my next question falls out of my mouth.

"Why don't you love me anymore?" I wonder, and internally cringe when I hear how soft and vulnerable my voice sounded.

"I don't even fucking remember you." He grunts before walking out of the room.

I wanted to follow him, but I knew if I did, he would get angry. He didn't want to be anywhere near me. I pick up my phone, deciding to call Arrowbella. He was excited when we told him we had found Aron, but he and Jewel were busy at school when we went to get him. So, maybe, just maybe, if Arrowbella comes over, he can get Aron to socialize with me. Or even better, he could figure out some way to prove to Aron that I'm not lying about being his boyfriend. I remember we did an interview awhile back to announce our relationship, but I felt like if I showed him that, it would be me forcing him to be with me even though he doesn't want to be with me right now. So, we need to think of some other way to trigger his memories of me.

"Yellow?" Arrow answers, he sounded high as hell, but I knew when Arry is high, that's when he has the best ideas, just like Dylan.

"Hey, Aron is here. He doesn't remember we're dating... Could you come help me..." I nearly beg, and I hear a string of swears.

"I'm on my way, I'll bring weed." And then I heard the click of him hanging up.

Within five minutes, I hear the doorbell ringing.

"Yo' fag! Somebody's at the door!" Aron shouts and the next thing I hear is Arry yelling.

"Don't you dare call him a fag!"

"What, are you his girlfriend?" He snaps back, and I swear I heard a hint of jealousy in his tone.

"No. I'm Arrowbella Alvarez, Matt and Dylan are my parents." Arrowbella says coolly as I walk out.

"Why are you here?" Aron asks, looking at me with a glare when he understands.

"Did you call her?" I heard a soft undertone of what sounded like betrayal in Aron's voice this time.

"Yes. He brought weed, I'm done dealing with your bullshit. So, I'm a get so high that I can't feel my face. You're being a total bitch." I snarl, and my niece looks at me in shock, as does Aron, hell I was shocked.

Arrow then giggles, before bursting into laughter. I knew he was only laughing because he's higher than Mount Everest but, it kind of hurt my pride. He takes his backpack off his back and starts unloading his favorite things on this Earth. First, he throws a bag of brownies at Aron. Then he pulls out a bag full of joints, and tosses those to me. And lastly, he pulls out his lighter and pack of fags.

"Who's ready to get high bitches?!" Arrow nearly shrieks.

"Are these weed brownies?" Aron asks, looking at the bag suspiciously.

"Yup, dad and I baked 'em this morning!" He chirps, smiling happily.

"Dylan can bake?"

"Rule #1 of being a stoner, gotta know how to bake." Was my wonderful niece's response.

Aron shrugs and takes one out of the bag, before munching on it. I take out a joint and light it, then take a much needed drag of it. Soon, all the stress melts away. By 10PM, we had smoked all the joints and ate all the brownies. Arrow was chilling with Louie on the floor, and Aron was majorly tripping. He kept saying how pretty I am, and cuddling me. Man, was this Arrow's plan?

"Danny! You're so pretty! C'mere Lion!" Aron nearly screams, launching himself off the couch into my lap.

"No faggot, stay away from Uncle Lion!" Arrow growls, throwing the empty bag that the brownies were in at Aron as soon as he lands in my lap.

"Shh, don't you worry Lion, I won't let the crazy bitch know that you love me." My boyfriend whisper yells.

I felt quite tired all of the sudden. Arrow seems to notice this and laughs, pulling Aron off my lap. My niece takes me into the kitchen, still laughing.

"My plan was to get Aron so high that he got sleepy, guess it worked on you too. Take him to your room and he'll hold you in his sleep like he used to." And with that, Arrow was gone.

I nearly drag Deuce to my room and shove him on the bed. He smiles at me happily, as if it was a game. I sit down next to him and before I could stop myself, I had jumped on him. I hold him tight, never wanting to let go. With a smile, he holds me back just as tight. I lay down, pulling him with me. Aron snuggles up beside me and yawns.

"Lion, I'm sleepy..." Aron says softly.
