Garroth? [Chapter 5]

Garroth's P.O.V

I sat at the dining table and ate the breakfast that took me 30 minutes to make. Why is it so hard to cook?! I miss is when mummy cooked breakfast for me.. Now I have to be an adult and do it myself. "for not being a professional cook, I think I did pretty good!" I complimented myself and giggles happily. I shoved the pancake into my mouth and chewed for a good 10 minutes before I was able to swallow it down. Well...Barely. I figured I could text Laurence, since I wasn't...'busy' anymore. I pulled out my phone and started to text Laurence, laughing. He then said that he was training someone, and couldn't talk now. I then put my phone down and as soon as I did, I screeched a bit when a firm knock was at my door. I got up out of my chair and made my way to the door, once I opened it, the door swung open. "Garroth, we need to talk." I heard the voice and automatically knew who he was before I saw them. "B-boss?! Aaron, what are you doing here?!" I asked him, a bit worried. "I need to talk to you. Your the best crime fighter in the gang and you need to be the first to know."

"O-okay.." I mumbled and shuffled over to the couch, trying to be as polite as possible. I wasn't expecting my boss to come over at my apartment! We made our way to my living room and we sat down.

"Me and the group decided that we are gonna be demanding a war with the Shadow knights for...raping you." Aaron said slowly. I bit my lip and looked down, blushing a light red. "I don't think we have to have a war though it's not that important..." I said, I honestly just didn't want Laurence to get hurt. WAIT what did I just say, I don't care about Laurence getting hurt at all! "Garroth, It is important. They just robbed you of being a virgin without your consent, you said Laurence did it, am I correct?" My boss asked, scratching his head for a second. "Y-yeah.." I stuttered, keeping my head down. I just thought about what happened last night, I felt weird, embarrassed. No one caught me but still...it's weird, and I can't stop thinking about what if they did find out? "Then we'll let you two fight each other. I'm pretty sure you would like to do that." Aaron said, and flashed me a smirked. "B-but!-" I started but got cut off by my boss. "No. Garroth, stop being so resistant. We know you want this." I teared up a bit and got up out of my seat. "You d-don't know what I-I want..." I muttered and walked away, trying my best not to cry. Why was I acting so emotional over this? I don't care about what happens to Laurence...even if I wanted to be with him, he's a criminal...I am the opposite. It'll never happen...

Laurence's P.O.V

We continued to train, and I taught Aphmau how to think before you act, so the previous incident won't happen again. I can't afford to die now to be honest, I don't really care about dying anymore. Not in a suicidal way, I'm just...not afraid of death. And even if I did die, I would know I deserve it. I killed a bunch of people, it's only fair I guess. "Nice job today Aphmau." I flashed a smile at her and just walked away. "Wait!" She blurted out and ran behind me. "Hm?" I turned around and looked down at her. "C-can I get your number.." She mumbled out, blushing a dark red. Okay, I think this girl might be sick or something. Why does she keep on getting red, and stuff like that? "Oh...um, sure. I guess as your trainer you should be able to call me or something.." I shrugged and grabbed her phone out of her hands, I quickly dialed in my number and gave the phone back to her. "Bye..." I turned around and waved, slamming into the doors and walking to Gene's office to get my first mission. I thought about some stuff while I was walking up those stairs though...Like, I'm kinda scared to go to war with Garroth's team. I'm not afraid to fight them...just afraid to hurt Garroth. Now that we just got back in connection..I don't wanna hurt him, or even worse..kill him. Wait, what am I talking about?! I can't get close to him, or anyone in general! They might betray me again...and I can't afford that at this moment. Let alone to like him. Once I finally got to Gene's office, I shoved open the doors and walked over to his desk. "What's my first mission Gene?" I said automatically, crossing my arms and looking at him file up more paper work. "I want you to go find our usual trader, and get some weapons. We'll need more, since...you know..." Gene said, as if he was afraid to say, 'war'. I simply nodded and walked out the door of Gene's office. I made my way, BACK down to the lobby and walked out the doors, looking for our usual trader.

I grunted and walked up to the street, looking both ways before crossing. I was focused on my task, until I saw a short blond figure walking in front of me, next to a tall black haired guy. Suddenly the tall figure looked behind himself and his eyes widened once they saw me. "...Garroth, look behind you." he growled fiercely, Garroth looked behind himself and his face turned a light red, and for some odd reason, so did mine.

"....oh...Hey Laurence..." Garroth looked down, I could tell he was pretending to be sad, he wasn't the best at acting in high school. "are you stalking us of something?" the taller man, ignored Garroth. "So what if I am? You won't do anything about it. Well... Let's be honest. You probably couldn't do anything about it!" I laughed, crossing my arms. Suddenly, he swung a fist at me. I didn't have enough time to react, so instead of moving out the way I got bopped in the nose. "L-Laurence?!" Garroth screeched. I motioned him silently to stay back, as blood trickled down from my nose. "Heh...your gonna get it now.." I chucked, and pulled a knife out of my case.
