CheckMate (A Luke Castellan fan fic. OC CHARACTER)

Deja Voo

Raphaels POV

My eyes wouldn't open, but I could tell that the room was dark. I was now doubt back in the bed that Luke and I shared at wherever he chose to call his hideout. The blankets smelled like him and they felt the same. The other side was empty. But heard the like that typing sound. Like the sounds when nails hit a laptop? Yeah.
"L-Luke?" I groaned tiredly. Footsteps approached and it was no doubt Luke. "I'm here Love. I'm not going anywhere." He climbed into my lap. Either leg on my side. He held my hands and then kissed them gently. He pressed his forehead against mine. My eyelids gently opened. I pressed a kiss to his lips and he repeated the same thing. "What were you typing?" I whispered. "Work. I had to send an email to the other camp station throughout New York and Manhattan." I made a "o" with my mouth.

I flipped us over so that I was on him. I put my head on his chest. Right where his heart was. "Can we get McDonalds....... please???" I begged, I batted my eyelashes up at him. He laughed, he could never resist it. "We can later Love. I just want to cuddle right now." I put my cheek back down on his heart and laid there for a while. He rubbed my hair and I was this close to falling asleep. His heartbeat had steadied out and my hair has stopped being rubbed. He fell asleep. There was a knock at the door. I carefully picked my head up not to wake him. Since his hand was in my upper back. "Come in!" I whisper shouted.
The door creaked open and Max peeked his head in. "I can come back later." I nodded my head. "I'll tell him you stopped by when he wakes up. It'll be soon 'cause I want McDonald's." Max let a small laugh leave his lips and nodded his head. He bowed and left. "Ohp Max." He peeked back in. "You bow in front of me again I'll break your back." He nodded his head and shut the door soundlessly.

I turned back to Luke. His blond hair scattered on his forehead unkept. I ran a hand through the back of it and pecked his lips lightly. He didn't move. I started to get worried. I kissed him again. I brought my hands to cup his cheeks. I brought my head down to his chest to make sure he was breathing. He was. He must've just really been sleeping. When was the last time he slept? "Luke wake up." He groaned. I rolled my eyes. I looked around for something I could wake him up with. His phone was on the nightstand. I grabbed it. I put my thumb on his home button and it didn't work. Definitely going to have to change that... soon, like in five minutes soon.
I pressed his thumb up to it and opened. I scrolled through his YouTube and found a loud enough song to wake him with. I decided on Little Talks by Monsters of Men. Since that song starts out hella loud. I kept it turned down for the insurance ad and turned it up all the way so it blasted his eardrums, partially hurting mine as well. He shot up making me fall back into his legs. Making my legs fall back into an uncomfortable position behind my back.

     He pulled me back up. "Sorry Love. I just haven't slept in awhile." I nodded. I rubbed my back. His foot dug into it. "Max stopped by earlier. I told him to come back later or vice versa. I also told him to never bow in my presence. It makes me feel like a queen. When I am no such thing." He lowered his hands down to my butt. "You'll always be my queen." I rolled my eyes at how cliché he is. "We should go check up on what he wanted. Also, you promised McDonald's. So that's what we're getting." He rolled his eyes and was unsuccessful at hiding a smile.
I climbed up off of him. I pulled him off the bed and force him to put a shirt on. He put in a long black shirt that made his muscle significantly show. Yumm. I pulled my hair up into a ponytail. He wrapped his arms around my midsection and put his head on mine. I heard footsteps approaching the room from the bed of the hall. I peeked my head in that direction. The footsteps just stopped at the door as I yelled for the person to come in. It was Max again. "Oh god she actually woke you up successfully. Anyway business to attend too. Involving her. Peace out bitches I'll be out here." I rolled my eyes.

        I slipped my sneakers on and my jacket. "Come on let's go." I begged the still half asleep Luke. He grumbled and I pulled him out of the room. Max was laughing at him while I dragged Luke down the hall. He was awake enough to walk by himself but I still pulled him until we got to the meeting room. I pushed Luke in and Milo laughed at both of us.
Luke sat down grumpily at the end of the table and I sat in the seat to his right on the other side. Luke yawned. "I will throw another shoe at you Castellan." I warned. He stopped mid yawn. "We're definitely keeping her." Max said. Luke growled and I just rolled my eyes and there stupidity. "So what did you wake me up for?" Luke asked running a hand through his hair. "So... we had an idea. Well I take credit for it. But 'we' had an idea. A master plan really, and it all revolves around her." Max said pointing at me. I was picking at my nails. "Hmm what?" I asked becoming aware of the attention on me.

      "So... since Luke brought you here, sort of unwillingly. I don't know how these things work. But we were counting on you to get information." I nodded my head sort of confused.

"So. We were going to use you as a spy."

"No."

"No fucking way am I doing that." I said hitting my hand on the table.

"Hear us out dudes. You, Raph would act like all distressed and scared. Like Luke-Pooky over there kidnapped you. Then you would say that you wanted to come home or whatever shit sounds convincing, and they would show up and blah blah blah." I shook my head several times.

"No. No. No. No. No. I can't handle that. Physically or emotionally. I-I no. I'm out."
I stood up from my chair and started to walk out. "Raph wait. Raph!" I turned back to Luke. "I swear to god if you're siding with them. You'll have an empty bed tonight." He gulped loudly. I scoffed and walked away.
I ran back to the room. I slammed the door behind me. Making sure it was loud enough for everyone to hear. I walked over to the bathroom. I closed the door and locked it behind me. I crumpled to the floor and broke down. My wings plopped out behind me. I tried to be quiet as much as possible. "B-Baby... are you in?" Luke asked walking in the room.
I stood up and sat down on the shower floor. I brought my knees to my chest and wrapped my wings around me. The door rattled as Luke knocked on it. "Raphael I'm not asking again. Please open up!?" He shouted. I brought his phone out of my pocket. I clicked my thing on the button and scrolled through his contacts. I came upon Milo's. I hit it. I held it to my ear.
"Luke. What's up?" I lowered my voice to a whisper. "It's Raphael. I'm in. Just don't tell Luke." I heard her hum under her breathe. "Yeah. Okay. Let me add your number in my phone. I'm hanging up now bye." I hung up. I wiped my eyes and stood up tucking my wings in. I fixed my ponytail and unlocked the door and walked out. I grabbed my phone off the nightstand avoiding Luke's attempts to talk to me and apologize.
"Baby just please listen to me?" I turned to him.

"Listen to what Luke. That you want me to sell you all out and act like it's a casual every day thing?! Luke I can't handle that! The fact that you'll end up having to yell at me and act like a piece of shit. Well it's to late for that I already am one. I'm going back to camp. Try and stop me I dare you! Come on I don't see you trying!"

He stood up and tried to grab my arm. Which he did successfully but I let my wings out and he flew into the wall. I headed towards the door and opened it and closed it. Milo was walking down the hall. She ran towards me once she saw me. I locked the door from the outside and met her halfway.
"That wasn't acting was it." I shook my head and wiped my eyes. "I-I'm Fine. Just I need to call someone. I'll be outside." She nodded. "You're going to have to act all shaken you know that right. Like all shaky and scared and depressed." I nodded. "It's nothing new."

      I walked down several flights of steps to get to the main floor and headed for the main door. Passing several tiny little rooms on the way. I opened the metal door and closed it behind me. I leaned up against the wall. I went on my phone and called Nico. "Raph? How's life with Pretty Boy?" I rolled my eyes. "C-Can you come get me? I-I don't want to be here anymore." I wiped my eyes. It was true I didn't want to be here anymore. I wanted to be home... with my average life, with my room and High School and the homework. All of it. It would be fantastic at the moment.
"What?! You're serious? Yeah, give me five minutes I'll shadow there. Do you want Will to come, in case he hurt you?" I rolled my eyes. "No he didn't hurt me. But I slept on my arm wrong and it really hurts.... just please hurry up?" I heard a hum of approval. "Of course of course. I'll be there momentarily."

    I hung up and crumpled against a tree about several yards away from the main building. I fiddled with the little shadows in my hands. Even though they made me feel exhausted I couldn't help it. It's just become a bad routine I guess. They climbed down my arms and towards my hand where they gathered. I let one shoot at a tree near the building by accident. They had picked a good spot to hide out in. An old abandoned warehouse in the middle of the woods. Vines growing off of trees and wrapping onto the building itself. Trees making the area secluded and cloudy.
I heard a small pop and I turned my head. I stood back up wiped my eyes and walked over to them. I gave Nico a shaky hug and did the same to Will. I almost collapsed once Nico returned the hug. Nico caught me. "S-Sorry I'm just tired." Will grabbed a shoulder and kept me balanced. "It's good. Do you have enough energy to travel back by yourself?" I let Will's arms drop from around me. I stood up by myself for a couple seconds before almost passing out. I shook my head no. Nico grabbed my hand and we shadowed back to camp.

     I turned one last time to the building Luke had just opened the door. I through his phone on the ground, making sure he saw. I winked in his direction and he smiled. He caught my drift. This is gonna suck.
