Hollywood Undead (Derillo) *COMPLETED*

Chapter Ten

JOREL

God my head hurt, and my mouth felt awfully dry. What the hell had happened last night after I left Danny and had a few drinks? I was in my bed and the space next to me was empty but looked slept in, however, Danny was nowhere to be seen. Rolling over I see a glass of water and a pill on the bedside table, Danny loved taking care of me.

After ten minutes of tossing and turning I get out of bed with some reluctance and grapple for my phone which had fallen on the floor last night. There was a single message in my inbox sent twenty minutes ago from the last person I expected to contact me, Aron.

Aron: I had a good time last night baby boy. We should do it again

My expression drops and turns into one of shock and panic.

Jorel: Are you lying to me? My minds a little fuzzy

Aron: Check your wrists baby boy, you never were a fan of handcuffs but you looked so good writhing beneath me screaming my name

I glance down at my wrists to see marks in the place you would have been handcuffed.

Jorel: That can't happen again Aron, I'm with Danny and I love him

Aron: You didn't love him last night baby. Be careful what words leave your whorish lips next or little Ragan goes sleepy sleep just like his mummy

Jorel: Leave Danny out of this!

Aron: Come to me tonight and we'll discuss this further...if you don't come I can't be held accountable for my actions

I delete the conversation and throw the phone down on the bed, I wouldn't let Aron lay a finger on my little lion.

DANNY

I was fuming, Jorel had gone out last night and met Aron, and the single message on his phone implied they had sex. Why the fuck would he sleep with the enemy? Yes the two of them had a past but he said he loved me, and I didn't consider cheating an act of love.

"Wow, Danny what did the coffee pot do to you? Why the death glares?" Dylan laughs loudly, clapping a hand on my shoulder from behind.

I visibly tense, "Jorel slept with Aron last night, I saw the message on his phone Dylan."

Dylan removes his hand and spins me around to face him. Jordon was stood behind him looking stunned and lost for words.

"Did you confront him, Danny?" Jordon asks, shuffling his feet.

I shake my head, "no I didn't, I don't know what to do. He tells me he loves me and then he cheats on me with his ex who tried to kill me. I don't know what to think after what George and Dylan told me."

Jordon inhales sharply, "we'll get to the bottom of this Danny. Maybe stay out of his way today."

Oh, I didn't want to see him anytime soon. Just then George enters the kitchen grinning like an idiot, oblivious to the clear tension in the room.

"Danny, can I have a word with you outside?"

I nod and follow my dad out, "what do you want?"

"Let's get out of here and get some breakfast. I want to get to know my son."

Well now I had the perfect excuse to avoid Jorel like the plague, and I got some more time with my dad.

GEORGE

Dylan and Jordon had come back with intel someone was paying Aron and his gang to take out Danny and make it look like an accident or robbery gone wrong. But the identity remained hidden. I'd only met my son last night since he was a small child, and if someone had put a bounty on his head I wanted to spend as much time with him as possible while tracking down the hidden identity and bring down the fury of Hollywood Undead on the individual.

I take Danny to a local cafe which served a nice breakfast and wasn't very crowded, and we order a lot of food between us. Danny had a big appetite despite having a tiny frame which worried me.

"So what do you want to know George?" Danny sips on his coffee.

I pick up my own coffee and take a sip, "how about the basics to begin with."

Danny grins, "well my favourite animal is a lion, I like the colour purple, my favourite season is winter, my favourite food is—"

"Okay, I get," I chuckle, interrupting Danny and his enthusiasm.

The food arrives and Danny digs in. I tuck into my own plate and continue watching my son. I didn't want to bring Jorel into the conversation because I was unsure how much the two of them had talked about Aron. Danny had my determination and if he wanted to know something he would find a way to get the answers, yet in him, I saw a lot of Asia who cared about people and wanted to please everyone.

JOREL

I couldn't find Danny anywhere after my shower. Then someone mentions him and George going out for breakfast and relief washes over me knowing he hadn't run away from our lack of conversation last night.

I didn't want to see Aron tonight, the others might get suspicious so maybe now during the day would be a better time to see him. I couldn't let Aron win, yes I got drunk at a bar but I couldn't even remember Aron being in the bar. I needed to make all the wrongs right before I lost Danny just like Dylan lost Matt because of me.

~Time Skip~

I park outside Aron's apartment complex seeing his car parked in his usual spot. Getting out of the car quickly I rush up the steps towards his apartment not wanting anyone both in my gang or his catching me in broad daylight.

I don't even get to knock once because the door swings open revealing a rather smug looking Aron. He leans against the open door tapping his foot on the floor, "you're a little early baby boy, couldn't stay away from me."

I feel a shiver run down my spine hearing him call me baby boy in person, I felt dirty right now. Deep inside I would always have a past with Aron, but now my future was with Danny and he really loved me, unlike Aron who simply wanted me for sex.

"Why don't I remember anything after going to the bar Aron?" I growl, anger building up inside me.

Aron stares at me unfazed, "come inside baby boy."
