Chapter 21
"I love you guys"
Past
Raiden had left the house with a smile on his face. It was his 12th birthday and his mom woke him up with a birthday song as well as the best breakfast in the world. As soon as he was done eating he rushed to catch the bus and left his mom going to bed since she worked all night again.
He got to his locker and took out his books for his morning lessons which whisked by without a problem. It was truly a good day. As usual he took his lunch box prepared by his mom and went to one of the outside picnic benches and had his lunch alone.
He was a bit shocked when 5 students joined him. He didn't have any friends and most people stayed away from him. It had got out a long time ago that his mother was a popular stripper and so many parents didn't want him associating with their children or they might get a disease or something worse.
So having the most popular kids at his table was not a normal thing. He suddenly felt weary.
"Calm down Ray. We found out that it was your birthday today and so we just wanted to give you well wishes" Josh the leader of the gang as well as the most popular guy in school said. He was really handsome and Raiden had a little crush on him.
"Ohhh...okay...thanks I guess" Ray said with a smile before taking a bite out of one of the muffin his mom packed for him.
"Is that a blueberry muffin. It looks delicious. I don't remember seeing those being sold in the cafeteria."
" My mom made these. You can have one if you want" Ray said passing over his lunch box and each person picked one.
"Thank you" Josh said and was about to take a bite but paused before he looked at Ray and smirked, "As much as I love muffins even if your mom was the best cook in the world I wouldn't eat any shit she made with the same hands she uses to touch d*cks every night. And the fact that you eat them so happily is just disgusting. I guess it's true what they say. Like mother like son. I wouldnt be shocked if you like d*cks as well" as soon as he was done speaking they all smashed the muffins on his head and face. Before he could recover someone poured a clear liquid onto him as well leaving him soaking wet.
"We thought you would like some lube on those muffins" Josh said causing an outburst of laughter.
Raiden knew no one liked him but this was too much for him. In a fit of rage he jumped over table and tackled Josh to the ground before punching him continuously in the face.
It was shocking that the big mighty Jock was being beaten by the little freak with a stripper mom. His friends pulled Raiden off him but what they didn't expect was for him to knocked them all down one by one. Only when teachers came to break up the fight did Raiden finally calm down.
Since that day he decided he would never allow anyone to embarrass him again. He would never trust anyone even for a second because everyone around him had bad intentions and no one could be trusted.
One thing for sure was that no one messed with him since that day.

Present
Raiden was nervous. He once vowed he would never trust anyone but ever since he met Diego he couldn't help but open himself up to others.
Yes he had made some friends in Jackson and Colton but he only truly opened himself the day he fully gave himself to his husband. He learnt not everyone was bad and he actually wanted to make friends. And now he had made friends he loved but he was afraid that if they knew who he truly was he would lose them. And that might actually be happening now.
"Breathe Ray... Daddy said they are still here and so it meant they didn't run right... All I have to do now is face them because I can't hide forever right... Simple right...hahaha... Im totally freaking out... I can't do this" Raiden turned to leave.
"Ray is that you?" Leslie called his name. It was too late.
"Yeah" Ray said as he finally entered the kitchen where his friends had been having breakfast with Sebastian and Anthony. Diego had left earlier for a work commitment to make sure his schedule was cleared for the week.
It was the morning after the whole kidnapping saga.
"Good morning" Raiden said as he took a seat. Anthony served him his breakfast but he was far from hungry at that moment. The sudden silence and tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife.
"Thank you" Leslie was the first to speak, "You are the reason I finally had freedom and could live my life freely the way I want. Thank you so much for that. You're the best friend a guy could ever have"
"I was so worried it would get awkward when you found out I killed your dad" Ray responded relieved.
"Believe me I appreciate it. And he killed your mom so it was fair" Leslie shrugged indifferent about the issue.
"Thank you for taking care of my brother. He explained what he could. You're the best" Jacob said with a smile as well.
"He is a cool guy and no matter what he wants you safe. He cares a lot about you" Raiden said in response.
"Im sorry I got us all kidnapped and the bruises" Kristan said.
"Don't worry about it. It's nothing make up can't cover. Also I totally got back at that asshole for punching me" Ray said.
"And Thank you for saving us Ray" Kristan added.
"I know... I did some scary shit and I hope that doesn't change anything. I love you guys. You're my friends and I will never hurt you"
"We know that. I have to admit though seeing you in action was pretty cool" Kristan said.
"The way you shot those guys was on point. I'm a good shooter but damn Ray they didn't even have a chance" Leslie said.
"Also the fact that your husband is a mob boss is kinda cool. And not to forget he is killer hottt. Damn Ray you hit the jackpot with that man" Jacob added.
"I know right. Daddy is irresistible. Now let's finish breakfast and get ready TO PARTYYYYYY..."
