"What?!", they both exclaimed, shocked that he revealed it himself.
"I didn't approve to it".
"How come you two are dating when you didn't approve it?", Davis questioned trying to pester him.
"It was a misunderstanding", he answered solemnly, "I kissed her by mistake", he finally revealed what Davis was waiting to hear.
"Kissed her?!", they both exclaimed again exchanging looks.
Maths felt irritated with the way his friend's were shouting at him.
They haven't heard the whole story yet but they've already concluded on what he just said.
He looked at them icily before standing up, walking his way back to their dorm to wash himself.
"Hey Maths! Where are you going? You've not explain to us how you got into a relationship!", Davis shouted at him.
"I'm surprised he told us himself", Shed muttered to Davis.
"Same. C'mon let's join him, I can't go back to that lonely home of mine", Davis said and stood up, carrying his sport bag with him.
"I'm going home, my dad will be home today".
"Whatever, don't spoil my joy. Hurry up", Davis said walking fast to meet up with Maths.

"Don't mess up the meeting today", Xyle warned Thomas as they made their way into the penthouse.
"Why? The meeting are always boring, I love to mess it up to create amusing atmosphere", Thomas said with pride.
Xyle stopped and face him.
"We still stick to plan, fine but you must remember we don't know all your brother might be thinking, we still need additional clue so we won't end up destroying our plans. Leave him be today, maybe what he'll say might be of help. Got it?"
"Got it, Master", Thomas answered.
His master is very thoughtful.
As usual only Uvin (seventh coyote) was absent in the meeting.
They all settled down one after the other until they finally started.
"The tycoons will burst into the Def company tomorrow", Coyote announced.
"What for?", Thomas asked, inviting stairs at him.
"They are bound to kill if being caught", Coyote continued ignoring him.
No one said anything, they just kept quiet.
They don't want to spill blood but those people want them to because there was no way they could draft money from Def without the income files.
Now, DEF has hidden the file.
"Change your plan", Xyle voice came in.
"Why?", Coyote asked with a frown on his face.
"To avoid killing", Xyle answered.
"What's your point then?", Guns asked him but he didn't reply.
"If you've got nothing to lay down, forget about it, we're going in", Coyote said, proudly.
"Must you use violence?", Xyle asked, his voice deepened.
"Must you feel guilty?", Coyote asked fiercely.
"Master is kind heartened not guilty", Thomas defended.
"Shut the fuck up, you!", Coyote commanded harshly, "Ask your master. Has he forgotten what they did to him and why he is here?".
"Not all of them are our enemies Coyote, it's better to change plan", Fred supported Xyle and Thomas.
Red stole its way into Duke eyes.
Anger grew in him listening to them.
He rule here and no one dare to teach him what to do.
He looked from Xyle to Fred, Fred to his brother, finally back to Xyle.
"If we can't go on with this one, suggest another for us then", he said directing the question to Xyle whose eyes was closed his head resting on the chair he sat on.
Titans finally spoke up.
"What if we burst in and still can't find the file after spilling blood?".
"Let's burst in first", Guns shuddered, mischievously.
"I know you love eating blood. I see why you're named Gun", Thomas relayed getting tensed with Guns statement.
"You bastard!", Guns fired angrily.
"Tell that to my brother!", Thomas fired back.
"You two, eat your word!", Coyote commanded, aggressively.
"I'm sorry", Guns pleaded while Thomas huffed away folding his hands around his chest.
"Look here", Duke started facing them, "You don't teach me what to do, I rule here, over you guys. I formed this club myself. If you aren't gonna help solving problems, you can as well take your leave. You're not welcomed", he said directing his words to Xyle.
Within him, Xyle wanted to get up and leave them not after beating Duke up blue black.
But then, he knew the exact reason he was there.
"The boy's are going in tomorrow and that's final. Icon?", he called.
"Yes sir", Icon answered.
"Deliver my message to the tycoons, there's no room for mistake".
"Yes sir".
"There shouldn't be killing unless they starts it themselves".
"Roger it sir".
"Good, the meeting is over. Follow me out Thomas", Duke commanded and stood up.
"What for?", Thomas asked icily.
"Don't question me", Duke said as he moved out.
"Motherfucker!", Thomas fired at Guns as he went out.
"Say that to your mo...", Guns paused remembering where he was.
Jim starts to laugh.
Immediately they got out, Duke faced Thomas.
"You're coming home with me", Duke announced.
Heard what his brother said, he turned his face around pretending not to have heard what his brother just told him.
"I'm talking to you".
"To me?", Thomas asked pointing at himself.
"Don't pretend not to hear me", Duke said harshly.
"Why should I follow you home? What business is there for me?", Thomas asked with pride.
"You'll know when you get there", Duke answered and turned to leave.
"I'm not going with you, okay?".
"You dare?".
"Yes, I dare or would you also get the tycoons to kill me also?", Thomas conveyed, angrily.
Getting tensed, Duke moved closer to him.
"You dare say a word about my decisions again then I'll put a knife to your neck", Duke warned, pointing his finger at him.
"You don't need to wait before I say something about your decision because there's more to it!", Thomas spat out.
"Say it out then, you ungrateful kid!".
"You sucks!".
Just in time, Xyle came out as Duke was about to grab Thomas shirt, stopping him.
Thomas roll out laughter, "Are you afraid of my master?".
"The hell with you", Duke said angrily and stormed away.
"Thank you, Master. My brother would have beaten me blue, black",Thomas said to Xyle, as he moved out of the penthouse.
"I came out the wrong time", Xyle said.
"Huh? So you will be happy if he beats me".
"Sure".
"You're heartless, master", he conveyed.
"I told you not to make a scene".
"I tried to, my brother is a devil".
Xyle got to his car, parked at the other side of the hill and faced Thomas who kept on blabbering.
"Go home to your brother", Xyle commanded.
"No", Thomas brutally refused.
"Go home with me then", Xyle proposed.
Thomas popped out his socket eyes.
"Go home with you?!", he exclaimed puzzled.
Xyle opened his car and went in while Thomas jumped happily as he ran to the other side of the car to get in.
His master has never allowed visitor's.
