Sparrows -A Krii7y fanfiction

Just Ask (44)

John P.O.V.

"Okay, now what?" Lui asked loudly. "I mean...where the heck do we go now?" I gazed over towards Smitty. The bag was completely covering his face and all I could see was his pale arms wrapping around the bag. I offered many times to take the bag from him, but he keeps gesturing to my bloodied arm. If I could, I would wrestle it from his hands, but the fucker has a nice grip on it. 

"My place." Evan answered. "I have a house near here. It's not too far of a walk and there should be enough space for everyone. My roommate won't be happy though." He touched his chin lightly, thinking for a moment.

"You have a roommate?" Delirious asked him. I bit my tongue. This can't turn out well...

"Yeah." Evan said, completely oblivious to the storm building inside his boyfriend.

"I'll murder him." Delirious stated. He began to walk in a random direction with Evan hugging onto his chest. His footsteps were deliberate and controlled by a massive anger. It was like there was a black mist of hate covering him.

Damn, you would think someone stepped on his child or something.

"Number one Del, Brian has a boyfriend and for all I know he could not be at the house at all. Number two, my house is in the complete other direction. Number three, what did I say about killing my friends?" Delirious hung his head and turned around, walking in the other direction.

"Not to..." He pouted. Cartoonz leaned over into my ear and laughed slightly.

"He's got him trained like a dog. Remember when nobody could touch him?" Cartoonz smiled. I chuckled.

"He was ruthless." I looked up at the couple scolding each other and giggling. "It's hard to believe that he's the same person at all. They're perfect for each other." Cartoonz walked over to Ohm and they followed behind Delirious and Evan.

"Freedom!" Lui screamed loudly, hopping onto Nogla's back. They both snickered widly before also following the others.

"Smitty, you don't have to hold him." I argued.

"But I do." He whispered. "I want him to know you're in good hands. Ohm told me what happened with him a while back. Back when you were hurt." He looked at my arm again. "And I feel like it's all my fault that you're hurt again." He let a few tears trickle from his beautiful eyes. "I don't want to cause anyone to get hurt ever again! Especially not you!" I ran up to him and hugged around his neck.

"Hey, hey don't cry! You had nothing to do with this." My eyes wandered to Cartoonz shoulder where my mother's body dangled. I watched them walk further into the distance. Maybe...now was my chance. "Smitty I have to ask you something important." He looked up from the bag to me. I almost exploded with how much innocence was in his eyes. He looked like a small puppy.

Oh god I can't do this. 

"What is it?" His eyes went wide with fear. "Did I do something wrong?" More tears started to fall.

Fucken shit. 

"What? No! You could never do anything to make me upset." I wiped his tears and rubbed his cheek. I leaned down and kissed his cute nose. He blushed lightly and avoided my gaze with a smirk on his face. Alright John, go for it! "I just wanted to know if you would be..."

"Hey lovebirds! If you guys stay there any longer we're just going to leave you!" Nogla shouted. I rolled my eyes and let out a huff. 

"I guess I can ask you later when we're home." I groaned. 

"Home?" Smitty asked.

"Yeah...do you want to stay with me?" His cheeks lit bright red and I started to stammer. "I-mean-uh-you don't ha- or-at least...till you find a proper home?" Smitty's face dropped slightly before he shook his head and smiled weakly.

"Sure John."
