Love or Obsession?

25. No choice

TEERAPANYAKUL MANSION
Vegas woke up as his head throbbed terribly, he could feel the heaviness like a thousand kilo stone was there.

His hand moves to find the warmth of the person whom he hugged every night but no matter how much he tries to, he can't seem to feel the presence of that person at all

Vegas slowly opens his eyes, sitting as he calls out tone flat "Pete"

He seems to realize something as his hand grips hard until his knuckle turns white with a loud thud the wall beside the bed crack and blood flow endlessly as he cursed "Fuck"

It was morning, everything seemed to go as planned, and no one had told him anything except they would leave at 5 in the evening. Pete still has at least some hours before he leaves his birth country as well as his every memory. The person whom he both loves and hates still lingers in every corner of his mind.

"Young master, it's cold outside please come in" Dave came who knows when with a jacket draped around Pete's shoulder

Pete turned to look at Dave but Dave clearly avoided him and guilt feel his eyes mix with many emotions that can't describe by the word

"Come to think of it, you took great care of me," Pete said with an unpredictable tone

It is hard to distinguish whether Pete was angry or he just casually saying it but Dave was happy at least Pete agreed to speak with him which lit his hope that Pete would forgive him but Pete's next words made that hope disappear right that instant

"But if you do care about me then at the very least be honest with me" Pete

"I know, I wrong you and for that, I'm so-" Dave

"Don't apologize I won't accept it" Pete said leisurely

"You should never lie to me again maybe I consider forgiving you" Pete with a smile

He indeed forgives him but the feeling still lingers, he going to leave all the bad memory behind and bring only the good ones.

"I promise," Dave said with a smile

This is the second promise he had made and it also would be the last. Dave embrace Pete, Pete was shocked by the sudden approach but he did not deny it. He won't mind a friendship hug but all their actions were being seen by Dane. The feeling of jealousy roused from the bottom of his heart even when he had no right to be jealous. Dane's face turns cold as he walks toward the both of them.

"You will catch a cold standing out there. Come on in" Dane said his tone is gentle as a feather but his icy face was way colder than the weather.

"I don't get sick easily" Pete answer leisurely still refuse going inside

"Look who is saying. I wonder to catch a cold and sneeze 3 days straight whenever it is winter?" Dane joke mockingly

Pete is the type that is allergic to cold weather, he can't handle much as the slightest bit of chilly outside. It is almost a habit that he catches a cold every three days at most whenever it is winter and every time in the past it was Dane to take care of him.

Thinking back on all those memories pulled a smile from Pete. Upon seeing this Dane unconsciously smile too.

Afterward, they have lunch together and nothing seems out yet.

"So they were looking for dead" an icy tone of Satan echoes throughout the monitoring room which full of electronic devices of all types
