Capítulo 7: Logic Seven
"Hide's POV"
We arrived home at our apartment, thankfully Raihen was there to help me carry my sober best friend by himself. Arum is too heavy for me, this is probably the worst state he had ever been when he got drunk. He can't walk on his own, he talks to random stray cats and dogs along the way, and he won't stop pretending to be a kid trying to be a superhero during the rest of the party before we immediately left after he did 'that'.
I've never been so embarrassed in my entire life. Except, I'm actually not. He was drunk, and he just happened to do a stupid dare, that's all there is to it, people were even able to take pictures. Just great, he probably thought I was some kind of girl or something. I don't know if people hallucinate when they're drunk, who knows? I've never been in that state before.
I am going to pretend that none of this ever happened. It's easy to do. I'm not affected, it's only a kiss. To me, it's only two lips touching each other and tasting someone's mouth. That was my first kiss. I am bound to experience that one day even if I never thought I would.
Sometimes I even wonder about sex. I don't have sexual needs or desires. People say it's normal but I'm not sure if it has something to do with my own individuality and my inability to experience attraction to others. I wonder if I'm also bound to experience that. Is sex without attraction even possible? I seriously need to stop thinking about things like these just because of a single kiss that led me to all sorts of random deep thoughts. It's my best friend who kissed me, not anyone else.
"Alright, you can sit now," Raihen told. He places Arum on the bed from carrying him on his back.
"Noo!!! I was flying in the sky! Why you put me down?!" Arum whined.
"We're all very tired Arum," Raihen sighed deeply scratching his belly.
"Hide! Raihen is pickin' on me! Call the cops!" Arum ordered. He pointed his finger to Raihen putting the blame on him.
"I'm not even doing anything," Raihen frankly denied. Raihen climbs up the bed taking off his sandals, he encircles his arms and legs around Arum hugging him from behind.
"Don't touch me! I hate you!" Arum whined yet another time while squirming.
"I'm tired, just let me cuddle you. I can't even get an erection," Raihen implied lying his head on Arum's back.
"I love you Hide! Marry me now! Let's leave Raihen behind!" Arum exclaimed.
"Ouch, that's kind of mean," Raihen pouted. Arum tries to squirm but Raihen is too big and tired to care.
I'm angry. I don't know why I'm infuriated. I am mad at Arum. But I have no reason to get mad, it's not that much of importance. Maybe I'm just frustrated because he left me hanging during the party because he got drunk and did something stupid in front of a lot of people, it's not really something I can be reasonably mad at. I have my own sense of pride, I'm still human. I still experience emotions. But it's not something I allow to hinder my judgment.
"Just go to sleep," I told Arum.
"Fiiine..." Arum complained. "But I gotta use the bathroom," He added. He tried to get out of bed and stood up but failed to maintain balanced, as he was about to collapse Raihen immediately grabs hold of him.
"Whoa buddy, let's take you to there quickly," Raihen told. He places his arms around him and supports his body.
"Easy steps, you can do it,"
"I think I'll just go here," Arum groggily replied.
"Hey! Hold it in for a minute will ya?" Raihen complained. "Hey Hide, I know people can do weird things when they're drunk and he may have overdone it a little, so I think I'll keep an eye on him next time. My bad," Raihen apologized.
"It's not your fault," I replied. I should've kept an eye on him myself as his best friend so I'm partly to blame for that. I followed Raihen as he carried him to the bathroom to make sure nothing bad happens. Raihen successfully led Arum in front of the toilet and steadied him.
"Hide, pull down his pants," Raihen called.
"What?" I dumbfounded.
"I have to make him stand properly, hurry," Raihen ordered while struggling to make him stand properly.
"Oh, alright," I nodded and immediately followed. I pulled Arum's pants all the way down along with his underwear.
"Sorry guys, I feel all woozy and dizzy," Arum said rubbing his eyes. After a short while, he finally lets it out. The problem was, it wasn't aimed properly.
"Arum! Shoot properly! Hide, take responsibility he's your best friend!" Raihen panicked.
"I-" I stammered but immediately responded instead of doing nothing. So I awkwardly held his member and pointed his piss towards the center.
"I know I'm his best friend but holding someone else's 'thing' feels rather embarrassing," I told averting my attention elsewhere for a few seconds.
"It's fine Hide," Raihen laughs. "You're dick looks rather interesting Arum," He muttered.
"Don't stare at it please," Arum replied annoyed but still woozy from the state of being sober.
"Alright," Raihen chuckled and paused. "Can I see yours Hide? I can show you mine too!" He mischievously continued.
"No. Raihen I'm not in the mood for your jokes," I tried to reply sincerely.
"I understand," Raihen grinned. After the deed was done I had to even more awkwardly shake off the excess drips from his shaft properly before I pulled his pants and underwear upwards. Raihen and I supported Arum an arm of his each across our shoulders for him to be able to walk on his own. We got out of the bathroom and then we casually dropped him off on the bed. Arum snored as he fell asleep almost instantly.
"Hide, mind if I stay here tonight? It's quite lonely being alone in my own apartment," Raihen politely asked.
"Alright, you should get changed. You can borrow the extra clothes that my parents sent me. They're in that second wardrobe over there," I pointed. Raihen immediately followed and opened the wardrobe.
"These ones?" Raihen asked.
"Yeah, they're too big so I don't really use them. My parents assumed I got bigger, I think it's just your size," I replied. As Raihen started to get changed I had to take off Arum's polo shirt along with his shoes and socks so he can be looser in his clothing.
"Hey Hide, do you have pants?" Raihen asked because he was wearing tight jeans. He takes off his shirt exposing his firm and defined muscular body and six pack. It made me look at my own body to see how pale I look.
"You'll have to stay in your underwear," I told Raihen.
"Oh it's fine, I'm wearing my boxers," He replied. He also noticed I was looking at him.
"Like what you see?" He smirked. I used to go to the gym a lot back in Norville, I didn't like staying at home all the time," He told. He picked an orange fitting sleeveless shirt and wears it.
"I see, I'm not very athletic and I easily get sick, so I couldn't really get into any kind of sports like Arum does," I replied. I also picked my own clothes in the wardrobe and picked a plain white T-shirt to wear. I immediately put it on and got fully changed.
"So how does feel getting kissed?" Raihen curiously asked raising an eyebrow. I still couldn't believe that happened, I remember people taking pictures and everyone cheering loudly and freaking out.
"How does it feel? To be honest I don't know," I replied nonchalantly.
"You don't really feel anything?" Raihen asked once more. I shake my head in response.
"You know, he might be drunk, but what if... He wanted that to happen?"
"I am confused. What do you mean?" I suspiciously asked.
"What if he likes you? I mean, he literally just kissed you like that," Raihen replied as he shrugged. I sat on the floor and laid my back against the bed while the soft mattress cushioned my head and Raihen comes to sits beside me.
"That's impossible. Besides, he only liked girls before," I told. Despite all the multitude of possibilities I could think of, I don't think one of them has the possibility of my best friend liking me. I know Arum.
"Wanna know what a real kiss looks like?" Raihen asked smirking.
"How does a real kiss look like?" I asked. Without a chance to even react, Raihen grabbed my chin and looked directly into my eyes. His eyes were soulful and vibrant, and just like a predator stalking his prey. He attacked. Our lips lock.
Our lips locked and we kissed. He still reeks of a beer a little, and everything just froze. My eyes widened in surprise and he casually slid his tongue through the entrance of my mouth. He placed his other hand at the back my head and dug his tongue deeper into the chambers of my mouth, I was overwhelmed and it was enough for me to make me involuntarily salivate. I couldn't move an inch and I was hardly able to breathe. As he was almost about to devour me, he stopped and breaks the kiss. He smirked and smiled foolishly then chuckled playfully.
"Hide... You're more vulnerable than I thought. What would you do if I was actually horny?" Raihen asked with a smirk on his face followed by a lick on his lips. I panted heavily because I couldn't calmly recover. I slowly backed away from Raihen.
"Don't worry. I won't harm you. I'm deeply sorry," Raihen sincerely apologized.
"I didn't tell you to kiss me, I just asked," I told annoyed.
"I can't really explain it to you another way. If there's anything that life taught me, it's that experience is always the best teacher," Raihen replied confidently with a smile.
"Are kisses supposed to be like that?" I nonchalantly asked.
"It depends. I just frenched it. People have their own way of kissing, I'm just more experienced that's all," Raihen casually replied.
"Oh, thanks," I told back wiping my own mouth from its own wetness.
"Thanks? Didn't it feel weird? I'm a guy you know," Raihen implied.
"I still don't feel anything, I don't know. I just didn't know I could experience something like that, Arum is also a guy. I don't really care about that kind of thing," I replied.
"Wow, you really are different. I mean, I don't know what to say. Can I still apologize again for that time I first transferred?" Raihen asked.
"I should be the one who's sorry for punching you," I told back.
"Hold on, you could've been suspended if it got reported. It's my fault," Raihen told as he averted his gaze.
"Hide... I know I'm just a horny bastard, and I can't help it. I love being perverted, it makes me happy and you can't make me regret that," Raihen told bitterly. "I'm not going to force you into something you don't want to, I know something's wrong with me, but I know even I have my limits," Raihen continued. He crosses his arms and sighed deeply.
"You're just misunderstood. Look, if that's your nature then I won't judge, I know people like you are different," I tapped his shoulder.
"Just be yourself, but be sensible," I added.
"Does that mean I can have sex with you?!" Raihen immediately turned towards me while grabbing my hands.
"NO!" I immediately protested. Raihen can be really unpredictable sometimes.
"Kidding! Kidding!" Raihen apologized. "But..." He suddenly touched my pectorals.
"I can still tease you right?" Raihen playfully snickered as he started fondling my nipples. I shivered a little bit but I just leave him be.
"This feels really really uncomfortable," I complained while doing a facepalm. I just really can't believe it. I actually got kissed by two guys. Is it an accomplishment or an achievement? Or something that shouldn't happen? How should I feel?
The weekend had eventually passed, Raihen just hangs at our place casually as if it was now his second home. Not that I mind but Arum doesn't seem to remember what happened and is completely oblivious to the fact that a lot of people are talking about us without knowing about the 'dare'.
I'm probably guessing it's a reputation kind of thing you get when you do something crazy at a party or any other social event. The good kind at least, my classmates assured it was nothing to worry about. Walking around the school halls with Arum and Raihen, there are two very familiar people who seem to be arguing about something. The one who threw the party last Saturday and accompanied by her entourage, an angry uninvited guest. Very angry.
"How come I knew nothing about this?! A party without a queen like me? Michelle von Contessa Riviere?" The self-proclaimed 'queen' protested.
"I hate to burst your bubble darling but... Nobody likes you, that's why I didn't invite you," Garren replied as he turned his head while closing his eyes and crossing his arms.
"Ha! You waste my time, I'm leaving. It's probably just a party for losers anyway," Michelle remarked sarcastically.
"You may want to choose your words properly baby. Everyone's talking about it. This party for losers you speak of was quite successful I must say, " Garren mocked with a smirk. The thing is, not only Garren is a star player of the football team but he may as well be considered one of the most influential people in school. It's quite interesting to watch him argue with Michelle who used to be her ex-girlfriend as well.
"Speak what you wish. Thessa, Paige, we're leaving," Michelle gestured the two girls with a hand sign and they stormed off dramatically heading to our direction. Everyone gives way to her as she passed by to avoid blocking her path and she immediately notices me from a distance. She eventually stopped walking when finally in front of me but she remained facing in the same direction she was walking toward.
"Soon," Michelle threatened. After the brief pause she just left, a smile crept onto her face and off she left with a sinister laugh.
"This isn't good," I muttered. I have a bad feeling about this.
"I wonder what's she up to..." Arum started to think.
"Well if it isn't the two lover birds," Garren suddenly showed up.
"Lover birds?" Arum dumbfounded. So now we have nicknames. Great.
"Did you see all that? Embarrassing, I know. That girl is terrible news, I'm so glad I broke up with her," Garren complained and shrugged.
"What was she like as a girlfriend?" Raihen curiously asked.
"Michelle knew I'd eventually court her, how could I resist? She's nice as long as I follow what she says, it was all puppies and rainbows and I was willing to follow all of her demands, until I realized she was just using me because she knew I could give her whatever she wants," Garren elaborated. He stretched his arms and places his hands behind his head completely unwavering.
"So what brings you guys here?" Garren asked.
"Just the usual, you know, walking around aimlessly when there's nothing much to do," I replied casually.
"Whoa, that's the most you've spoken to me," Garren astonished as he leaned a bit backward.
"Is that so? I see," I replied. I proceed to take off my eyeglasses and clean it with a handkerchief I keep in my pocket.
"You look handsome without your glasses," Raihen complimented.
"I give not much attention to my looks, but I can't see without them," I replied as I put my glasses back on. That's when I suddenly see people running in fear.
"Shit, shit..."
"He's back!"
"Who's back?" Raihen asked. While a few people ran, some people begin to walk away and clear out of sight when I notice a figure from a distance. A student wearing a regular casual red graffiti designed shirt inside his unbuttoned uniform. The guy had an average height just slightly taller than I am and had dark green hair walking with both hands in his pocket.
"Motherfucker, he's back from suspension. I'm gettin' out of here," Garren told as he immediately fleed out of sight.
"Now that's unusual," Raihen confused. I don't think a person like Garren would leave easily like that either and it's obvious he sees that person as a threat.
"That's Kaze Chasteffie. I've seen him before, I don't think you'd want to get involved with him," Arum warned.
"Get out of my fucking sight, why do you look so weak?" Kaze threatened a guy who just came out of the restroom nearby restroom. He had a deep voice and a menacing angry look on his face, you can tell the details just by looking at his clenched teeth and his cold stare.
"Who are you?" The guy cluelessly asked.
"Bullshit!" Kaze cussed disappointedly. That's when he ferociously kicked the nearby metal trashbin completely tossing it far away, as it landed it made a loud clanking sound which startled almost everyone as it's contents became spilled on the floor. The random person immediately ran away in fear to avoid any form of trouble.
"So the rumors about the delinquent were true," I muttered. I barely know anything about it, but I always heard that someone was almost murdered. Despite being baseless rumors, this just made everyone frightened and it makes no sense if he's still here in this school.
"We should get going," Arum suggested. Without further questions, we just silently walk away. But it's not until someone yelled behind us.
"HEY, YOU!" Kaze shouted. The three of us got startled.
"You with the fucking glasses!" He called pointing towards me. We turn around to see him almost just behind us. Across the floor, he suddenly saw a baseball bat and immediately picks it up with no hesitation. He starts tapping the bat onto the palm of his hand multiple times as he takes slow steps forward one at a time.
"You'll pay for you did last time," Kaze muttered pissed. Rage and hate were all I can sense from him. His eyes were dreadful and he gives off an ominous vibe and some sort of dark aura. As he drew closer his arms hang loose as his bat slides on the floor 'til he stood in front of me. He gripped onto my collar pulling it upwards and our faces came close with the tips of our noses almost touching each other just a centimeter apart as he stared directly into my eyes filled with hostility and killing intent.
"Actions. Have fucking consequences. Let me fucking show you your fucking consequence," Kaze told beneath his breaths. I could barely think of a way to get out of this situation and I have absolutely no idea what he is talking about, and something tells me that saying something will just aggravate it.
"Do you know how long I was fucking suspended because of you?! A fuckin month!"
"Get off of him!" Arum deliberately warned but Kaze ignored. He tightens his grip onto the baseball bat he is holding and to my uniform and presses his forehead a bit forcefully against mine.
"FUCK YOU."
