BEDAZZLED SLOWLY BY YOU

CHAPTER 8

Good felt like he is drowning. Like the pillow, the bed, the floor is swallowing him. Maybe he is dreaming.

He doesn't like it.

Cold...

Who took away the sun?

Good tugged on the cover and wrapped it around his body even tighter.

"Who needs my awesome medical skills?." Someone asked.

"Aren't you having goosebumps hearing yourself?." Jaxion is used to his friend's antics but still, he can't help but wants to knock their heads maybe a few times.

Good who is in between sleep and daydreams suddenly opened his sleepy eyes upon hearing the word medical. He pushes down the comforter just below his nose and saw a tall guy in the room.

"Good, this is my friend Aries... He is a doctor." Jaxion introduced the guy who is smiling a bit too wide for Good's liking.

In Good's eyes, the good-looking man is transforming into those evil spirits that fed on his soul.

He is evil...

"So, this is the boyfriend." Aries throws Jaxion a teasing smile.

"What the heck is a boyfriend?! Jesus Aries... I want to know in what corner of the earth you are hopping now and picked up this bullshit you're spouting!." Jaxion will need a doctor himself if he will meet more people like Good or even his friend.

"In English words, Boyfriend, lover, someone you hold tight when it's cold." Aries laid down like a teacher on his student.

"You want a punch or a kick?."

"I would love to taste either one but I don't think my sweetie pie will appreciate me sporting a black eye." Aries laughed and step back when Jaxion moves to do it.

"You are annoying."

"That I am, so what's wrong with him? By the way what happened to... I don't let anyone in my room rule? Broken?."

"I have no choice, the resort is packed and he is my responsibility .''

"Is that so? I don't think there's a good Samaritan gene in your system though...doing this, how come?." Aries asked in genuine curiosity.

"Just check that i***t alright? He walked under the rain like some actress on some stupid movie."

"Alright! Jeez... If he leaves you I will be the first one that will say... Serves you right."

Good is shivering but the evil doctor is giving him more reason to ignore the discomfort as he inches by an inch, he slipped from the bed.

They are busy talking... Maybe he can leave and sleep somewhere else.

Remembering how those doctors used a syringe as big as a house on him before, Good shiver even more.

They are evil!

Slowly, Good moved from the bed, and Jaxion wanted to roll his eyes.

How many times will Well try to run away in such an obvious manner? Trying to sneak out while the person he is trying to avoid is just in front of him. What is he? Invisible?

"Where do you think you're going?."

Good who is about to tiptoe away with the blanket around him turns to the two persons that are watching him with different expressions. One is watching him in amusement while the other is just so done.

"Pee."

"There's a toilet inside this room and you want to go out to pee?." Jaxion said. His boiling point is almost at its limit.

Good looked down his bare feet that feels like being pricked by needles with how cold they are.

How will he say that the other man in the room is a member of the evil group?

"I'm going home," Good said.

That's right, his mother will take care of him and not force him to see a doctor. She will feed him those bitter medicines but it's better than seeing doctors.

They are evil!

"What?!." Jaxion thought he misheard something as Good mumbles under his breath.

Aries burst into laughter as he heard what Good said. "Oh, I like him, bro... He is amusingly cute and funny."

Jaxion ignored Aries as he approaches Good.

Good's scared reflex took over as he moves away.

"Good, I'm warning you."

Good is dizzy but he would rather stay standing than lie on the tempting bed. He can't just let his guard down!

Good made a cross sign using his pointed fingers and pointed it at Aries who burst into booming laughter that only annoyed Jaxion even more.

"I don't have time for this." Jaxion did not give time for Good to react as he kicked behind his knees making Good bend it. As he flails his arms but can't balance himself fully with all the sheets around him. Jaxion hastily caught him and dropped him back to bed.

He holds Good's restless arms in place as he glances at Aries who has this stupid grin on his face.

"Oh wow, I never thought you have this in you."

"I'm not going to listen to your blabbing so just f*****g checked this i***t please."

"Alright, you are too impatient. Look at him he is traumatized."

Good is wide-eyed staring at Jaxion. He is wondering how this guy's face is distorted in annoyance. The crease on his forehead looked out of place.

Good touch his forehead not minding the hot feel on it as he looks for lines.

"Old man."

That's what is running inside his head but his mouth said making Jaxion almost choke Good to death but Aries is about to die in laughter.

"Move away from him old man."

Jaxion leaves the bed before he can commit murder.

"Good right? You may have bad experiences with doctors but I'm not going to hurt you... I'm going to check your temperature and maybe give you medicines... Ignore that old man he is just born like that." Aries said in a tolerating voice that he used on his scared patients.

Good did not nod or say anything as his eyes followed Arie's every movement.

That's what they all said!

Good untrustingly watch the doctor take out a small thing from his bag and Good glared at it. Jaxion is watching him closely like he is ready to jump him just in case he tries running away.

"Open your mouth."

"Why?."

"Just open it! Don't make me open it for you!." Jaxion butted in.

"Ignore him, I have to check how high your fever is so we will know what to do."

Good opened his mouth in reluctance but Aries just put the small gadget just in the opening of his mouth and after just a few seconds it made a beeping sound.

Aries uses his stethoscope to hear Good's breathing.

"It's a fever that comes with colds and coughs, I'll have someone bring the medicines here and just let him rest, sleep is a good idea so his body will heal itself."

"He is fine?."

"He is fine, don't worry your boyfriend just needs rest." The playful smile is back on Aries' face while it just annoyed Jaxion.

"He is not my boyfriend, he is my employee."

"Okay, an employee with all the privilege from the boss then."

Aries laugh once again and hurriedly reaches the door to avoid Jaxion's kick. "He will take the medicines every six hours for three days okay?." And the doctor disappeared at sight.

In Good's hazy consciousness he is thinking what his boss is thinking. Good like living simply. As long as he has a place to sleep, food to eat, a job then he is happy. But this guy seems making everything complicated. Is he not tired of frowning all day?

Maybe you did something to annoy him?

Good tried thinking possible reason but he can't find any.

Maybe his boss is just weird.

Sleep sleep...

His head feels heavy as he thinks of the beautiful sleep fairy. But as his system shut down a heartless nightmare shake him awake.

"Take the medicines first before sleeping." Jaxion tried to be as gentle, hoping there's no-nonsense going out of Good's mouth. But who can tell that this brat that is a mature male hates taking medicines?

After wrestling for about ten minutes Jaxion just glared at the pitiful expression of the sick puppy.

"Stay here, I have to attend some business, your dinner will be delivered to you later," Jaxion said as he leave the room.

Good wanted to fight the sleep and call Jaxion names.

He is like a naggy mom.

Good woke up feeling better. His throat feels uncomfortable but his fever is gone. It's only six in the evening but he is hungry. Looking around the room for his clothes but he can't find them anywhere.

Shrugging at that, he rummages inside the drawers and took clothes that are not his.

He took his money and walk out. The beautiful sunset descending at the ocean greeted him.

He stares at it for a while before wandering around looking for a place to eat. He found a restaurant after walking endlessly and he happily orders his food.

Jaxion's words vanish from his mind as he eats.

But a people raise when he forgot which room he came from. He was walking around without direction looking for the room but he can't remember.

It's eight in the evening but he is still outside with the people on their swimsuits as a beach party is going on.

A girl notices Good and she flirtatiously latches into his arm.

"Hello... Are you alone?." The girl in a two-piece swimsuit asked Good with her sultry voice.

"Yes." Good replied. There's no one with him right now so he is alone right? He tried stepping away but the girl won't let him.

"I'm Pie, what's your name?."

"Good." Good hold the girl's hand that is moving over his chest like some massager.

"Here." The girl passed the cup that she is holding.

Good stared at the pinkish liquid curiously.

"Taste it, you will like it." The girl told Good.

Good took a sip from the straw, the bittersweet taste wet his tongue.

"How's the taste?." Pie asked.

"I don't know."

"That's what the first sipped always like, now drink some more." Pie grinned. Her red-painted lips are raised at the side making her look like those from the series.

Good drunk almost everything but the aftertaste is not something he likes. He gives Pie the cup back and turns to leave.

"Come on, let's have a good time shall we?." Pie drank the rest in the cup and tugged Good's arm.

"I have a contiguous sickness," Good said. Well, his mother told him that colds and fever are contagious.

"W-what?!." Pie became pale upon hearing that.

"I am sick, " Good shrugged his shoulders when the girl suddenly put her finger into her throat and started puking.

Good looked for some juice stand to wash down the bitter taste the left on his tongue when he was pulled and dragged away by a very angry man.

"You're not even better yet and you are out here acting like a tourist? What if your sickness got worse huh.!?"

The poor girl who heard it almost puke her guts out.

Jaxion leaves his office at nine believing that Good has been good and took his medicine but the good for nothing i***t disappeared and is nowhere to be found.

"Do you have any idea how worried I am looking for you?." Jaxion continues dragging Good back to his room.

"Your room disappeared."

"What?." Jaxion glances back at Good but did not stop walking.

"I can't find it."

"How... Ugh, forget it!." Ax disregards his question knowing he will never get a better answer and just pull Good back to his room that is still in place. How can a room disappear?

"Take your medicine and sleep."

"I did."

"Stop lying!."

Good have no choice but to take the medicine when Jaxion glared at him heatedly.

The resort is still packed with guests that added more stress to Jaxion as he doesn't have a choice but sleep with Good.

When he is done changing, Good is already asleep but Jaxion almost throws out the unwanted guest when he saw how Good hogs the huge bed that can cater to five persons.

He pushed him to the side without mercy and lie down his side. His plan for the night is to go out and drink a few but because he has no idea why he is doing this, looking after someone that is not his responsibility and an adult at that... He has to sleep early.

He turns to his side and Good that is lying to his side suddenly opened his eyes.

"Spongebob, you look like that old man." After saying that, Good close his eyes again and put his legs over Jaxion's body.

Jaxion is not sure what time he fell asleep and that only happened when he locked Good's legs in place using his own because if not Good will be sleeping on the floor.

This guy is making him lost his mind but still, he can't help but worry for him when it's not his thing.

Maybe because Good is helpless or maybe he is like a kid...
