He's my escort (Error X Ink)

Asylum for a Tired Soul

I was Error's friend while in an orphanage I don't remember in the slightest. I can't tell if he's just lying to me and trying to play me in someway or what but I'm mostly scared that I don't remember if it even COULD be true or not!

The cocoa in my hand swirls around the mug calmly. Perhaps it really doesn't matter. It's in the past. Whether or not it happened is irrelevant at this point. But that doesn't keep my eyebrows from furling as I angrily sip my drink.

Error and his brother chat as I sit in silence. I'm just so miffed. I don't understand why I am and that just makes it worse. Woo. All these feelings, my chest is gonna pop and deflate like a failed souffle.

"You're telling me the three of you are orphans?" Fresh nods to me.

"Our mom had different plans for her life. After Fresh was born she abandoned us. Thank god we had Geno or there would have been no way we would have survived." Error explains as he finishes his drink.

"How'd Geno lose his eye?" I want to know everything about them. I want to jog my memory. I'm scared that none of this is familiar in the slightest. Fresh seems like he can tell I'm asking for my own reasons not that I actually care about their oldest brother.

"While we were living on the street some psycho drunk came at us with a knife and he lost his eye protecting us," Error says.

"...hm he must really love you guys to do that. Or to take care of an infant and a toddler while having no food or shelter. Y'all are crazy." Error nods totally agreeing

"Saying he's stubborn would be putting it mildly."

I lean back after setting my half full drink down on the coffee table.

"You're incredibly chatty today Error." I look to Fresh to back me up. "Don't you think?"

"Nah, this is pretty normal for him. Guess you being around is helping after all broseph!" Fresh grins and error looks away like he's embarrassed.

"Aww~! Glad to help in that case!" I lean on Error and cuddle his arm. It looks like he had the urge to push me away but he doesn't.

Today is Saturday, and I think there's only three more days of school until Error graduates. That gets me wondering so I ask. "What're you gonna do after school's over Error?" He shrugs to me. I look to Fresh "and why the hell does he not go to school if he's younger than you. Error grumbles a response

"He skipped four grades and graduated two years ago." I whistle mildly impressed.

"What about a job then?" I ask Fresh. I'm super comfy against Error and snuggle against his neck which makes him shiver and move his legs slightly.

"I help Geno with the business." He says

"Oh, well that's cool, working from home and all. I'd go completely stir crazy if that were me but I hear other people like that sort of thing heheh."

"Yeah bro, it's pretty great." Fresh pauses and looks at his hot chocolate before continuing, "so it may be none of my business but what was wrong, Ink?"

I try to hide how irritated I am by that question. "Let's all just forget it even happened, a'ight? It was nothing but a fluke and cause I was ill and all." Fresh looks to Error for an explanation because he knows he's not getting one from me.

"You're right. It IS none of your business." Error backs me up, thank all things good in this world. I smirk and point to Error looking at Fresh smugly. Fresh sighs before standing and taking Error's empty mug.

"I'll get out of your hair then."

"Thanks for the cocoa." Error says as his brother leaves the room saying it was nothing. I give Error some space and go back to drinking.

From the corner of my eye I see him moving his legs nervously like he was when I was leaning on him. Looking over to see what's his deal I spot it pretty easily. He has a bonner and his face is flushed darker seemingly hoping I don't notice. Heheh. No luck Error.

"Want some assistance with that, boss?"

"Oh shut up. We went over this two days ago." He pulls his legs up to hide himself.

"Well gee man, I'm pretty sure that's a moot point now. Even if I may not belive you love me, I'm more than certain by this point that I love you." Error stutters at that and his eyes go wide.

"Wh-what really? Y-you're not just, just saying that?" He shivers. I lean in and kiss him. He melts into it. I pull away and he looks drunk on his own emotion his eyes lidded and begging for more.

I giggle "why are you so cute though? Is that even legal?" Standing up I pull Error up as well who wobbled. "Let's go to your room hm?" I ask and he nods. We dodge from the sights of Geno and Fresh and then lock the door.

After the door was shut Error grabs me and pushes me against the wall as he kisses me harshly. He runs his hand to my back and unbuttons my jumper. Looks like we're really doing this... I'm not in control of the situation this time. Usually I'm fine being the sub but... something doesn't feel right. The thought that I'm just his rebound from Blue won't get out of my head. The thought that he just wants to use me to satisfy himself like everyone else won't get out of my head. I started this. I shouldn't complain. My body for some reason wants this, it never has before now. Stop thinking about it. It. Doesn't. Matter.

The jumper falls to my feet. My shirt follows. He holds my bare shoulder as he looks me in the eye, his forehead against mine. He hasnt said a word about my scars. I give a small grin which was enough to make him continue.

The next thing I know I'm completely out of breath and drowning in an extacy I've never known. Everything is calm. We're now just cuddling, both of us naked in his bed with a familiar stickiness to it. He's so warm and his heartbeat... I don't even know. It's weird, super friken weird but every inch of me is loving this. I've never felt more safe.

"I love you Ink" he whispers in my ear and nuzzles me. I just wish I could belive that.
