Riekko's Pov
I don't know why but hearing what he said makes me doubt.
However it was his brother he knows him more than I know so I believe him.
Couple of hours later a familiar figures arrive and walk towards Grey.
A sudden slap was from the woman was heard.
"Why didn't you watch him Grey?!." She said.
"Enough Elise its not Grey's fault so calm down our son is inside." The man beside him holds her tight.
They must be their parents I thought.
"I'm sorry." Grey replied.
I saw Finn clenching his fist while Beezle was holding him tight.
I inserted. "You must be Deion's parents I'm Riekko Neurons their professor."
I saw the woman took her gaze at me seriously.
"Neurons? You remind me of someone I do hope you'll treat my dearest son very well." She replied.
The words came out from her mouth seems to have a deep meaning.
The doctor came out and called them I wanted to walk in but Grey signed me to stop.
"Damn it." I mumbled.
Deion was moved in another private room Finn and Beezle was keep on blocking my way to visit him.
"You got to be kidding me why not?!" I asked thinking that its a joke but they seem serious.
"Grey is going to be troubled if you even think about of something else. So just wait for a while Riekko we can visit him some other time." Finn said.
"I know! I know! But why are you two here in my apartment?! Is that even required for you two?" I exclaimed.
"Just to be sure you won't sneak out it was Beezlebub's idea." Finn added.
I shook my head and continued to work until an email from hades arrived.
"She's here." From Hades.
And a picture appeared in front of me which made me drop the pen I'm holding.
"Who is she?" Bee suddenly asked.
I immediately deleted it and replied. "No one."
1 week later...
I finally was able to visit him Grey was waiting at the door when we arrived.
The moment I opened the door I saw him smile faintly with lots of medical apparatus around him.
He became more pale than usual and he seems to lose some weight. The oxygen mask covered his mouth and he barely moves at the bed.
I felt the pain on seeing him like this it seems like he suffered from deep pain to be in this state.
"Good morning hon how are you feeling?" I smiled and asked him.
God knows how I wanted to cry right now just by looking on his weak face.
"Do you need something?" I added.
He signed no and just closed his eyes.
"Let him take a rest Riekko he's been exhausted by the therapies and stuffs." Grey tap me in the shoulder.
I nodded and watch him sleep I always saw him with an oxygen beside him.
If only I could part up with his burden he might be feeling well now.
When everyone was out Deion opened his eyes and smiled. He removed his oxygen mask and spoke slowly.
"Did I scare you?" He said with a jolly voice but it still seems weak.
"You don't have to push yourself I'll just watch you here." I replied holding his hand.
"I wanted to go home can you take me home now?" He asked.
I don't know what should I say because he still feels not fine at all.
But looking at his begging eyes makes me don't want to say no either.
"Okay I'll get you home." I smiled and caress his face.
"T-thats good to hear." He said and put the oxygen mask back.
I left him a bit and talked to Grey outside.
"He wanted to go home." I said.
"My instincts were right you can take him home and we will just let him have the other room so we could check him. Until he feels better and can go back to school again." He replied.
I wanted to ask Grey about their parents but I don't have the courage at all.
Now that I think about it the purpose of that room was actually not for practice but for him.
I decided to bring my work at home and watch over at him. He seems happy every time we talked and how I entertain him if I'm not busy.
Grey also both stuffs from school because he was currently home studied.
Even tho he seems fine I somehow sneak at him and saw him staring blankly.
Grey was right he worries too much and always brought up his fake smile.
"Hey Riekko are you even listening? Your dad passed by and ask what is taking your whole time to leave the company." Hades said.
"Oh yes I'm sorry just don't tell him anything." I said.
"Dude you've been distracted the whole time and I bet you are not even listening at me." Hades stared at me.
I sighed and continued to sign the contracts.
"I was worried with no reason at all however, I got this kind of feeling that something was really not right." I said thinking about their actions.
He suddenly hit me in the head with folder making me smile as I remembered how jolly Deion was the first time we met.
"Now I think about it you are indeed crazy dude crazy inlove." He said and rolled his eyes.
"Is that obvious?" I smile slightly.
"Obvious? Not at all because it is very obvious." He said and acted to vomit.
I shook my head and smiled he's right.
"But I thought you are actually doing it because of the dare?" He suddenly blurted which made me look at him.
"Who says I'm doing all of this because of that freaking dare? I admit it was a blessing in disguise but I won't actually going to do that stupid dare ever again." I said while glaring at him.
"Ohhh." He said and immediately stood up.
"What do you mean ohh?!" I exclaimed I know his hiding something.
"I accidentally told her about that?" He said while looking at me with an apologetic look.
"You what?!" I yelled.
"It was an accident she blackmailed me!" He defended.
I believe Hades in that part he won't speak unless being blackmailed.
I massage my head in frustration now I got more things to think about.
My phone suddenly rang and it showed Deion's face.
"Yes hon?" I answered and signed Hades to shush.
"I think I'm fine now when are you going to be back?" He asked.
"I'm on my way home now so wait for me okay?" I said and saw how hades dropped his mouth.
"Wait! What do you mean on the way home you still have a lot of stuffs scheduled!" He exclaimed.
"Its your fault so fix it you bastard." I said and left him.
Before I could go out the very least person that I don't even want to meet appeared.
"Babe I'm back." She said and walked towards me but I immediately stopped her.
"Will you stay out of my way? My wife is waiting for me." I said and walked passed her.
"Your wife?! How come I've known you since we were kids and its impossible for you to have one!" She exclaimed.
"Well you are wrong." I said.
"I'll tell your dad about this!" She replied in irritated voice.
"Go ahead I don't mind." I said and continued to walk ahead.
I drove my car into our apartment and saw him standing at the door.
"Hon what are you doing outside?!" I exclaimed.
"Oh, your here nothing I was just trying to get some air." He replied.
I take him inside and gave his favorite cake.
"What's wrong? Its the first time that you are just staring at it." I said.
I saw him lowered his head and sighed.
I raised his chin to look at me in the eye. He is still gorgeous as always even tho he became paler.
"What if I need to leave you?" He suddenly blurted.
"What do you mean about that? Are you going somewhere?" I asked worriedly.
I see the worried look in his eyes and I also notice different kind of emotion towards him.
The doorbell suddenly rang so I stood up and opened the door.
Grey and the others are outside raising some paper bags.
"Come on in guys." I said.
"Deion! I brought your favorited I know you wanted to taste this so much." Beezle exclaimed.
"Now your becoming talkative." Finn said in a sarcastic voice.
"Are two going to fight again? Why don't you tell them some good news." Grey said while staring at Deion.
"Yes about that we are on our break right now the head announced it. So we decided to have our vacation get away!" Finn exclaimed.
"Really? Can we go to the beach?" Deion smiled happily.
"Of course we all know you love the beach so much." Bee replied while putting the Tupperware's on the table.
"Do you happen to have an ideal area? I know some private resorts and island owned by my friends." I suggested I saw their eyes sparkled.
"Then we will entrust you with the location we will have the food and stuffs." Grey replied.
I was happy to finally see Deion in a good mood like literally for real. Its been so long since I saw him smiled like that the reason why I loved this guy.
We both decided to be early the next morning and we used Bee's Van.
"I feel like a third wheel here." Grey replied and wears his headset.
We just laughed at him, Deion was beside me holding his Cannon.
"Smile hon." He said.
He's been taking lots of pictures at me ever since I woke up.
"Cut it off hon you look like a scary obsess stalker." I said.
I saw him frowned and take out his pink headset with strawberry design.
"I'll let you listen to my favorite song." He said while smiling at me.
"Okay but you need to sing it for me." I grinned.
He nodded and put the other one in my ear.
(NP: Monster by Katie Sky)
He stared at me and started to sing.
"I see your monsters,
I see your pain.
Tell me your problems,
I'll chase them away.
I'll be your lighthouse.
I'll make it okay.
When I see your monsters
I'll stand there so brave,
and chase them all away."
Good thing I know this song so I inserted.
"In the dark we, we, we,
stand apart we, we,
never see that the things we need are staring right at us.
You just want to hide, hide,hide
never show your smile, smoke.
Stand alone when you need someone
its the hardest thing of all
that you see are the bad, bad, bad memories
take your time, you'll find it." I signed him to sing the Chorus.
"I see your monsters,
I see your pain.
Tell me your problems,
I'll chase them away.
I'll be your lighthouse.
I'll make it okay.
When I see your monsters
I'll stand there so brave,
and chase them all away." He sang the chorus without taking he's eyes at me.
"I can see the sky, sky, sky,
beautiful tonight, night
when you breathe why cant you see
the clouds are in your head
I will stay there there, there, there,
no need to fear, fear,
when you need to talk it out with someone you can trust.
What you see are the bad, bad, bad memories
take your time you'll find it." I stared in his eyes while singing those words.
"I see your monsters,
I see your pain.
Tell me your problems,
I'll chase them away.
I'll be your lighthouse.
I'll make it okay.
When I see your monsters
I'll stand there so brave,
and chase them all away.
I'll chase them all away." He showed me a lovable reaction while singing the chorus making my heart beat uncontrollably.
"You've got the chance to see the light,
even in the darkest night
And I will be here like you were for me,
so just let me in." I smiled and hold his hand and squeeze it a bit.
"Cause... I see your monsters,
I see your pain.
Tell me your problems,
I'll chase them away.
I'll be your lighthouse.
I'll make it okay.
When I see your monsters
I'll stand there so brave,
and chase them all away.." He sang the chorus again and I gently kissed his forehead.
"I see your monsters,
I see your pain.
Tell me your problems,
I'll chase them away.
I'll be your lighthouse.
I'll make it okay.
When I see your monsters
I'll stand there so brave,
and chase them all away." We both sang the last part and a sudden clap make us laugh.
"You two has an amazing voice!" Finn said.
Bee laughed and spoke. "I want you!"
We all laughed with his reaction as if he was part of the voice judges.
We arrived at Chrome's private rest house.
"Woah this place is awesome Riekko!" Finn exclaimed and ran inside.
"Do you like it?" I asked him.
"Yes I love it." He smiled.
I lead him inside and were there is a large pools at the side and the beach are in the front.
He keeps on taking picture around and I also catch him taking some of mine.
"Let me take a photo for both of you." Grey inserted.
I hugged him at the back and placed my chin in his shoulder.
"123 smile." Grey said.
I smiled happily while he took some photos.
As he got the the camera he raised his head at me and showed his breathtaking smile.
"You look so happy it makes me happy too." I said.
He just smiled and and drag me into the the house.
"You guys go ahead just leave the food preparation to us." Bee said dragging Finn into the kitchen.
"Noooooo!" Finn exclaimed who is already wearing his bathing suit.
I was startled when Deion suddenly hold into my arm.
"Let's go." He said looking at me.
I smiled how clingy he was today, so I take him out to walk in the seashore.
"It feels peaceful being with you walking by the shore." I blurted looking at the sky.
He leaned his head at my arm and spoke. "I hope we are always like this forever."
Did I actually hear it right? Or did I forgot to clean my ear right now?
"You wanted to be like this with me forever?" I asked him just to be sure.
He nodded while closing his eyes and continued walking while clinging in my arms.
I never felt so satisfied in my whole life but now I am actually feeling it by just walking silently with him.
"Deion I wanted to tell you this because we started at the part where I let you feel that you don't have a choice but to be with me. Now I'm going to ask you which will be your own choice can you stay by my side and love me?" I hold both of his hands and look at him lovingly in the eyes.
A beautiful smile was written in his face.
"I'll always be with you Riekko." He said giving my hand a kiss.
I grabbed him and hugged him tightly.
"I love you so much Deion." I said.
"I love you too Riekko." He replied.
I raised his chin and kissed him gently.
"Oops censored." Grey exclaimed while holding his phone and walked away.
We both laughed while our nose are sticking together.
"Time to eat!!!!" Finn yelled.
We returned at the house holding hands.
It was night time already and we manage to create a bonfire.
"Why did I end up being in here again?" Grey suddenly blurted looking at us in disgust.
I just shook my head and stared at Deion who is sleeping in my lap peacefully.
"Because you are a very protective brother." I laughed making him frowned.
"The food is here! Wake Deion up." Finn smiled while holding the Grilled pork and Fish.
"You seem to be happy like you cook the dish but the truth is you only know how to cook rice." Grey laughed at Finn.
Finn rolled his eyes at him and gave me a plate.
"Don't mind that single dog." He said and sat beside Bee.
"Where is my plate?" Grey asked.
"Go get for yourself." Finn exclaimed.
Grey shook his head and stood up to get a plate.
"Hon wake up food is ready you also need to take your meds." I said shaking him slowly.
He slowly opened his eyes how adorable. He sat properly and leaned his head in my shoulder.
"I want some fish hon give me some." He blurted and I also gladly feed him.
