It's Complicated

trouble

The man stepped back and looked at the mess. He had ice cream all on his shirt to his shoes. He growled at Jesse who flinched and stepped back. Jesse still didn't look up at the mad stranger. He was scared to death. Jesse was thinking of the many ways the stranger would beat him up. All he wished for is to just be walking home with no scratches. Jesse stepped back, hoping he could make a run for it but, the stranger catched on and quickly pushed Jesse to the wall and held his arms against it. Jesse dropped the bag of ice cream and closed his eyes firmly.
"oh no.....what is he going to do now....? Oh my god. I just want this to end already! Can't we just talk?!" The stranger let go of Jesse's arm and stepped back. Jesse opened his eyes slowly and faced the stranger. The stranger was tall and very muscular. He had a navy blue tank top, ripped jeans and a couple of chains around his neck and a silver watch on his left wrist. His right arm had a couple tattoos, there were also some on his chest where it was exposed. His shoes looked pretty expensive and new too. Jesse looked up at the strangers face and blushed. The stranger was very handsome and looked really tough. He had really nice silver eyes and his hair was a very dark black and had a light grey streak in it. He also had a piercing on his eyebrow and his lip.
"Wow.....he looks pretty handsome. I want to ask his name but, I dont think it's a good time." Jesse said to himself. The stranger snapped his fingers in front of Jesse's face and Jesse shook his head.
"Ah! Uh, um sorry, I-I didn't see you and um....c-can I ask your name.....? Y-you dont need to! I-I just want to know." The stranger smirked and laid his hand against the wall next to Jesse's head. Jesse blushed and looked away.
"U-uh, can you s-step back a little p-please? Your kind of really close." The stranger got even more close to Jesse and stepped closer to him. Jesse flinched and tried to step back but he couldn't.
"I thought you wanted to know my name? Don't ya wanna know?" The stranger said. Jesse gulped and looked at his chest stained with ice cream.
"Um. How can I pay you for the mess i made. I have to hurry home now. The ice cream is melting." The stranger moved his arm and stepped back.
"I want your number." Jesse looked up at the stranger dumbfounded.
"Uh....wouldn't you like anything else? Why my number?" The stranger took out his phone and went to his contacts.
"I'll call you when I decide what I want from you. Now. Your number. Hurry, cause your not the only one that's busy." Jesse picked up his bag full of half melted ice cream.
"It's xxx-xxx-xxxx. Did you get it?" The stranger nodded.
"Yeah bu-" Jesse interrupted him as he walked away.
"Good. Now, if you excuse me, I have to get g-" The stranger stopped him before he finished his sentece.
"Hold up. I'm gonna make sure this is your real number first. Don't want you to escape that easily." Jesse stood there until his pocket started to buzz. His phone rang and he answered it.
"Is this your phone number?"
"Yeah. Now don't erase it and keep it in your contact. I'm gonna contact you pretty soon. Now, you can go." Jesse walked away but looked back to see the stranger leaving in the opposite direction.
"Wait! I didn't catch your name!" The stranger stopped and looked back.
"Neither did I! But you'll find out soon!" He turned back around and walked away. Jesse turned around too and clenched onto his phone.
"Was that a warning or something? What does he mean?"

10 minutes later

"Xavier! Anthony! I'm home!" Jesse walked to the refrigerator to put away the melted ice cream when suddenly he heard footsteps running down the hall and the stairs. He closed the refrigerator door when suddenly he was attaked by a big half naked guy.
"Bun! I was so worried about you! Where the hell where you, huh?! Tell me n-!" The man looked at Jesse on the floor and felt something on his chest. He got up and pulled Jesse up.
"....is.....is this ice cream?" Jesse nodded.
"Well, you see.....there was an accident and, I dropped the ice cream on myself. Bu-" the man stopped him and gave out a menacing aura.
"Did someone hurt you? Did they do it on purpose? Can you tell me who it was so I can go murder them?" Jesse flinched and blurted out.
"No one did! I swear! I just tripped and got it on me! Really! Nobody hurt me, I swear!" The man looked at him straight in the eyes very seriously.
".....hmm......Okay. I belive you then. So.....what did you bring?! Did you go get something delicious to eat?! Are you going to cook today?!" Jesse laughed and sighed.
"No. But! I did get ice cream. I also got your favorite. But it's all melted now so you can't eat it. You can wait a little bit if you really want it."
"Oh, ok. But you should really change. Your all sticky. But you smell good." Jesse looked at his shirt and took a sniff.
"Yeah. This is just a waste. And it's my favorite one too......but.....Xavier....."
The so called Xavier looked at him and backed away.
"No. I'm not going to do it. Not even if you beg for me to do it." Jesse had a really cute pleading face. Just like a dog would do to get a treat.
"Please? Xavier~, I'll cook for you for a week? Pleeeaaaasssseeeee~.....hmm?"
Xavier was always weak going against Jesse. Especially when he plead with such an adorable face. He walked to Jesse and grabbed his cheeks and pinched them softly.
"Sigh. Okay. I'll go with you tomorrow. Now, stop making such faces, ok. And lets get cooking! I'm really hungry. Just came back from a dealing arrangement that was far." Jesse looked at him and then turned away.
"Xavier....when are you going to stop? You know I hate that you do things like these....." Xavier scratched his head and looked out the window of the kitchen.
"Jesse. You know I don't like this but, I need money and I need it fast. I'm also doing this for you. So please. Just...just pretend that I work at some pet shop instead of doing things that can get me killed or in jail...." Xavier hugged Jesse from behind and whispered in his ear.
"It wil be alright. I wont let nobody hurt you or take you away from me."
Jesse turned around at him and returned his hug.
"I know that. I'm just worried that you or someone else will get hurt or taken away some day because of this. Please just stop this. I don't want you to go away too....."
