Barcelo Raval: He's The Bomb!

Barcelo Raval, Barcelona

Gerard couldn't believe he had to deal with rope and hoist twice in the past few hours. Now he's climbing a hotel to reach one balcony, hopefully the right one. He felt like a teenager sneaking up to his girlfriend room to have sex—maybe he's getting one tonight if he's lucky—, only this is too high for a regular sneak up. He finally reached the rooftop and untied himself. In all sudden, somebody jumped out of the pool on the rooftop, making him stumbled and hit the railing with his back, bending over backward.

"Gerard?" His attacker step back.

Gerard's recovering from his shock, he almost fell down after making all the effort climbing up here safely. "Cris? What was that for?"

"I thought you were someone else."

"You're expecting someone else?"

"Why don't you use the door?!"

Instead of answering Gerard only walked closer, closed the distance between them and gave him a mild, soft, gentle, kiss. "Hey," he smiled. Gerard looked at Cris in his swimsuit, "Nice swimsuit. You're swimming? Want me to join?"

Cris found himself lost in Gerard's eyes. But soon he came back to his senses. He pushed Gerard away, "Fuck off! You're here for the painting!"

Gerard gave him a crooked smile, "Maybe." His smile soon died when he heard a loud noise behind him, he turned around to face a helicopter floating. He narrowed his eyes and recognized the familiar figure on the helicopter. "What are you doing here?!" Gerard snapped.

"What are you doing here, Gerard?" a familiar voice came from the intercom in the helicopter.

"I do what I want." Gerard knew he probably looked ridiculous talking to a helicopter right now.

The helicopter's door opened, revealing his father, "Yeah, like having secret rendezvous with your boyfriend."

There was disapproval and danger in his father's voice, and Gerard knew he couldn't let his father know that Cris was his boyfriend while was at the same time against him on the legacy. "He's not my boyfriend."

"Then who is he?"

"Nobody."

Those words hurt Cris more than it should be.

"Now please leave me alone to do my business."

"I'm here to pick you up, Gerard. That person behind you has betrayed you. Somebody's coming to you. Now jump here!"

Instead of wondering what his father had meant with betrayal and someone coming after him he freaked out of idea of the last sentence. "No way! Are you crazy?!"

"Don't be a pussy, Gerard. Jump and get your ass here!"

"No!" he turned to Cris, "Cris, what did he mean you betrayed me?"

"Yeah, yeah right, ask for an explanation from your boyfriend."

Gerard turned his head to his father and snapped, "Shut up! He's not my boyfriend!"

Cris started regretting what he had done. But instead of explaining things to Gerard he said, "Yeah, I'm nobody."

"I can't let him get to you, Cris. I've promised to keep you save, remember?" for a second Cris' eyes shine with something he couldn't name of. Gerard asked with voice so low, hoping his father couldn't hear him, "Now back to the question, what have you done, Cris?"
