8. Unknown Future

[3rd Pov]
Adams House

A moment ago Adam received a message from a mischievous friend saying they're coming over and there's no excuse he can't come there. Adam really didn't have anything to say to stop him from coming over, mostly because he didn't want to be ruthless and say no to him. Adam has been looking out of his window for the past minutes seeing if he really is coming over again to just have one of his long talks on his porch under the midnight sky.

After a couple of more seconds into staring off into the distance of the deep dark, he sees an average height person coming out and standing there in front of his house, waiting for him. Adam's next move was to go outside and meet him, but then noticed he was staring at the same window he used to look outside. That creeped him out, he just stood there menacingly.

Adam goes over to the front door then he opens it all the way wide with the shiny door knob seeing his friend standing there in front. What made him feel frightened is that his friend out there went too quickly to the front door without even hearing his footsteps, his house was in huge silence. He could have even heard a pin drop to the floor.

"Salutations." Rust said other known as Jimmy for his secret identity. "Hello again, Rust." Adam greets back feeling a little afraid of him but he has been getting used to him and his creepy threats. Actually not really, there is still some fear. "What brings you here again, another talk?" He asks then Rust slowly nodded his head as a yes, the light from inside the house reflecting off his purple shades, his smile showing more from the darkness where he came from. "Do you want to come inside or prefer this outside?" Adam asked.

"Out." Rust said standing there still, not making much movement. He did hold up a smile, one of his creepy smiles filled with many crimes done. Adam didn't want to think about any of them. "Okay let me get my sweater." Adam said then heard the scary man say something, making him feel tense. "Yeah, the scary wind is the thing that will most likely kill you outside and not me." He turns around to sit down on the stairs on the entrance of the porch.

Adam brushes it off, quickly getting his sweater then goes outside on his front porch slightly leaving the door closed. "..What are we talking about this time?" He said standing behind him, taking some couple of small steps away from him. "...You seem uneasy." Rust says his tone lowered, slowly turning his head around to face Adam behind, which creeped him out near to death. "Oh i-it's nothing, I was just texting Jake. He might text back soon." Adam answers half honestly, he did feel tense about him doing something bad right there.

"That imbecile." Rust turns his head back around to face the front. "He's not an imbecile Rust." Adam says and luckily Rust didn't say a threat or anything bad. He was quiet for a couple of seconds sitting down looking deep into the dark distance, not much movement was made until he spoke up yet again to Adam. "How cute is he?" Rust asked him, sounding curious and mischievous.

"Rust, I-I don't think he's cute." Adam responds, he felt embarrassed that he's going to start again with his best friend. "We're only good friends, it's not anything like that." He added in his sentence, though none of that seems to matter at Rust. He messes around with Adam a little more about his friend. "Is it?" He questioned leaving Adam to leave a sigh, not feeling up to denying everything he says about Jake again. "No, it's not like that."

"If I ever told Jake he was cute, what would you do about that? I'll take him away from you, probably kill him later on." Rust started to describe how'll it be for him, it made Adam uncomfortable. Although luckily he knew he wouldn't do anything bad like that even if he really did that to someone else from all of his past victims. "Rust, y-you wouldn't do anything like that." Adam said, still a little worried for his friend. "Yeah you're right, I rather keep him alive suffering than kill him like that." He said.
