Crimson

Liquid heat for the cold..

Juno was lost and disoriented .

He had never had someone faint on him .

That had always been his duty , fainting or losing consciousness first and usually on Ali .

I groaned and adjusted his weight on my body .

I had been hoping to have a quiet time with him , hence ,the remote place .

Fate had waited for me to take him to a secluded place and then proceeded to rain on my attempt at adult time.

It would have been not much of a deal to lift him , at least to where I could find help .

But , Ali was adamant on never showing your full potentials In public .

Vita made a noise in his , said a few undecipherable words and sighed .

Thank the goddesses , I had been worried that he might have fainted .

He was just sleeping , it seemed the almighty brigadier could not hold his drinks .

I could not see his face , but , it was still comical .

I took a look around , wishing someone to appear .

No one was showing up and my arm was beginning to cramp .

I inhaled and then heaved , dragging him up till we were practically hugging , I tried to walk but it seemed almost impossible .

I chuckled , how exactly had I expected this to work out ?

Sometimes , I seemed extremely stupid to myself , except my stupidity tended to be funny .

Vita hummed again , except this time his mouth was by neck , so , I felt his humming down to my toes .

He continued , whipping a tale of thiefs and brigadiers and shelters as I dragged his unconscious body .

" Really now ?"

I had become interested in his tale , maybe because his voice being so close to my neck had become some sort of vibration that I felt everywhere , every single place .

He was talking about his partner now , Nero .

It seemed like they were old friends and their relationship was more inept than it had seemed on the surface .

Finally , I could see lights .

I stopped to rest for a while and I must have stopped abruptly because his lips ended up on my neck .

I stilled , suddenly feeling the chill that I had not felt during the entirety of the day and through the night .

I moved gently , moving his body the opposite way .

But , it seemed that he had suddenly regained control of his body .

He clung to my neck , his hands coming up to wrap around my shoulders .

His lips moved .

From a careless kiss , it became too focused to be called careless .

I was going to stop him , when I felt him.

His tongue had darted out and licked my neck , leaving a spot of wetness .

I suddenly understood , really understood what liquid heat meant .

It was wet , wet yet I could only feel heat.

I felt it again , but this time it was not just a trial .

His tongue licked a slow , small circle on my neck .

I must have forgotten how to breath because my breathes were suddenly coming in short pants .

My chest was closing up .

When his tongue touched me again and was about to lick another path , I flipped and pushed him .

He landed on his ass and groaned loudly .

With my heart trying to return to it's normal rate , I was still too hot to give any positive reactions even though I was overreacting somewhere in my head .

He kept groaning on the floor , even though his eyes was closed .

I was not used to dealing with drunk people , I really wasn't sure if he was conscious now or if this was still drunk groaning .

I was about to bend to check on him when he moved his hand to rub his head .

He slowly sat up , still running his head and eyes still closed .

Then he opened his eyes , squinting as he looked around .

His eyes finally landed on me and he stared for a while before averting his gaze .

Then , he smiled .

A smile that was very uncharacteristic of him , had he hit his head seriously?

I watched him carefully , I did not want to get closer and have him empty the contents of his stomach on me .

I did not like him enough to let him do that to me .

Or go into a wild rage , why did I seriously know nothing about drunk people except knocking them out .

I needed him to walk out , then , I could knock him out before he decided to host a strip show at The Haze.

He was still smiling the partially insane smile .

He looked strangely relieved .

" This is not the first time I am having a dream of you " .

I was surprised to hear that , I moved forward , towards him .

" Do you dream of me , Vitalis ?"

I held his gaze as I asked this .

He nodded,

" I do .

I dream of you whispering to me on silk sheets ".

I was only a feet away from him now .

Behind us , I could hear footsteps , probably a lost guest .

I put my fingers out , stroking his face.

" When did this dreams start ? "

He sighed dreamily , resting his cheeks in the cup of my palms .

" From the very first day I saw you , now everytime I see you , I think of what you would look like on silk sheets ".

I heard it again , the footsteps , it seemed they did not belong to a lost guest .

I released my fingers from the cup they had formed around his face and looked up at the dark sky , there were almost never stars .

All Ali's parties were safe , I had nothing to worry about .

Throwing a blade might be too forward .

" Come out while I am being noisy ".

I looked down back at Vita .

He had also been looking at me , I smiled and he continued to stare unbreaking.

I turned to where a low rustle had sounded and waited for the source of the rustling to appear .

A man came out , he was naked .

And since the lights were facing away from us , I could not see his face or any recognizable features except his flapping c**k that was rigid , Juno hoped that was from the cold .

The man began to move forward and contrary to the stench of opium and Alcohol that came from him , he walked in a straight line .

When he finally reached me , he bent and moved his head towards me as if he was offering it .

" Do you know who I am now ? "

His eyes were bloodshot .

He turned to where Vita sat and gave him a once-over .

He abruptly stood up , shocking Juno by exposing him to his dangling manhood , it was so close that Juno could have inhaled largely and found himself being slapped by a dangling c**k.

" He has never been actually drunk , so , I did not know to expect this " .

For someone supposed to be very drunk and highly disoriented , he seemed to be none of that right now .

I moved closer and helped him raise Vita up .

Holding each of his arms up , we got him on his feet and turned to leave .

Nero kept glancing at me , secretly or whatever it was so supposed to be.

" Did he make any mistakes ? "

I ignored this and he did not ask Any other question .

When we finally entered the area of dim lights , one of the guards spotted us and made his way over to where we stood , I exchanged places with him and stood back watching as Vita , the guard and Nero , still naked made their way out .

I put a finger to my neck to make sure I had not been dreaming earlier , it was still lingering .

I turned abruptly when I noticed Ali walking to me , had he noticed me touching my neck .

I sighed and was about to move towards him when he turned to leave .

At that moment , the band was starting to play a song that I had not heard of in a long while .

I put my arms around myself and began to sway lightly thinking of the how the brigadier had kissed my neck .

I desperately hoped that I would be able to relive it , even if it was in a dream .
