Chereads / BE HERE FOR YOU / Chapter 17 - 16

Chapter 17 - 16

The strong night wind seemed to allow two bodies to hug each other. Explore the darkness of the street with colorful light decorations that help with lighting.

The current of the road that is not too crowded makes the man with his long navy T-shirt hit the gas at high speed. As if not understanding the code of a tight grip that pulled the ends of his shirt on two sides.

Devan who was still in fear was only able to fall silent with a trembling body. His head accidentally leaned against the back of the man who saved him.

His little body felt a little pain in some parts. His stomach was also like a lot of wind to make him nauseous. It's been a very night, don't know how long Devan was confined to that warehouse just sitting on the tile floor that felt so cold. 

"Thank you, huek!"

"Eh! Are you okay?"

Devan just nodded briefly. He walked with his head bowed. The bag he was carrying felt so heavy that Devan's arm several times squeezed his stiff shoulder. 

"Eh! Let me go!" Devan's move immediately stopped. The sound of someone's footsteps getting closer to him. 

"No need."

"You're wearing my jacket, i- I don't want you to throw up there. Don't get me wrong!"

The man who was currently in front of Devan also blocked his path again. Devan took a deep breath, and the bag he was carrying was immediately released and thrown into the man's arms. Devan was preparing to pull the end of the jacket up to be removed but an embrace of the body and the urge to continue the road could not be resisted by Devan. He needs help, his legs are so bad at the moment.

"What floor?"

"24 number 301."

Being in one sphere with that person felt very awkward. Devan never thought Nathan's figure would be in his need to escape fear. Reflex hugged and cried in Nathan's arms like it was a shameful shadow that was currently angling in his mind. The man with an arrogant face and at will gives his time to continue acting ignorant and resulting in people around. The bully man was also his savior this time.

"Thank you for taking me. Oh yeah, your hoodie I'll return it after I wash. If you're cold, I can lend you my clean property."

Nathan simply stared silently at the pale-faced man. He still didn't expect the man to seem to be living in an apartment, instead of in a house with the family that greeted him worried on the doorstep. 

"I can."

Devan opened the door and immediately entered the luxurious-looking room without allowing him to enter. 

"Shit! Only this time a man like me waited with a stupid look at the door."

Nathan stared at Devan's bag that was in his grasp. He should not be so excessive by escorting and welcoming the offer of a jacket exchange. Should he exchange his kindness today for some order demanding Devan to be his slave?

Sometime later, the door finally opened again. Nathan who was preparing to give a few words was immediately stuck at the tip of his tongue. Looks worse than the previous one. Devan looks pale and so sad that Nathan sees the tears that are ready to flow. What's wrong with him, is it so tight that he has to face a sad face? 

"Dev! It's not what you might think, she's drunk."

Nathan who was initially only focused on Devan's expression was slightly gasping with the baritone's pause. The man in a sleeveless shirt filled with tattoos looked anxious with a cold look at one time. The atmosphere seems tense with Nathan who seems to be a stranger in the feud between two lovers. Eh! Wait, they're both men!

"What the hell, Mike! I don't mind, it's your house, right?"

Devan tries to dodge when Mike pulls his face to look at him. He didn't want the man to see his sad face and guessed various things.

As for Nathan, he still doesn't understand how to act. There was no way he would just leave or even say goodbye and interrupt the debate between the two.

"I never intended to have sex here. You don't think too far."

Mike's voice began to rise. Devan's face that did not even want to look at him made him so sad, he was being looked disgusted for the first time. Mike who is still focused on Devan turned to the figure of a man who faced Devan, a man of Devan's age.

"I'm not angry at all! I-I just wanted permission to stay at my friend's place."

And Nathan still doesn't understand the problems of the two men. The man with an adult look began to look at him coldly, while on the other hand, Devan who was facing so close to him was holding the hem of his shirt tightly. The man raised his face to look at his, staring at him as if asking for help. 

"Eh? Ya, Devan will stay at my place, there is a task that has been deadlined."

"You're just avoiding me, Dev!"

And Nathan was distraught to death, he had never been there like this. He used to be the main character in every quarrel, he was not sure how to react as a reserve figure. 

"No! You've never been a busy schoolboy, mike?" Devan also ventured to turn around and stare at Mike's cold face. Half dead he held back the tears that were already desperate to flow profusely.

"There's no reason I'm angry about this, right? I have to leave soon, pity my other friend is waiting."

"Dev!"

Devan waved at Mike. He tried to show his cheerful face. Pulled Nathan's arm and walked down the step he had passed a moment ago. Mike's dark red hoodie was transferred to Nathan.

"It's clean and I guess it will fit on your body."

Nathan immediately put it on. The size was fitting, and when his gaze turned to the short body next to him wearing his jacket it was like so oversized.

"This jacket must have belonged to your brother earlier, right?"

Silene. Devan didn't follow him at all. Devan still stepped in with a thought that so dizzy him. Getting into bad luck, a man named Bian locked him in the warehouse, and Mike hurt him without a trace. Seeing the adult body hugging with the condition of clothes that are so open, Devan is not stupid to guess the next incident.

"Thank you again."

Devan's arm was outstretched to Nathan. The man in his red jacket looked at Devan with a deeply wrinkled forehead.

"I swear! I didn't understand the situation at all. The guy you're avoiding is your brother, right? Or maybe it's even your lover?"

"I don't want to explain something you don't need to know, do I?"

Devan immediately pulled his bag into Nathan's grasp.

"Hey! Where are you going? Remember, don't let you miss tomorrow! Because I'm going to charge my services today."

And with no known purpose, the two men were again in the same position. Through the night that is getting late by leaving the frustration experienced by the adult man. 

"Why am I so sick to see Devan's rejection of me?" Said Mike and ruffled his sweaty hair.
