Fan Fiction ❯ Alas ❯ Part 8 (chapter 7) ( Chapter 7 )

"Well…I sleep with this fairy and he…he broke my wings after."

"Why?"

"So I couldn't turn into a human…he wanted to make fun of me with the others."

"What others? I don't understand…will you explain better?"

"After he broke my wings he tied me and threw me to the other fairies. They all rapped me, all the others…"

"Rape?"

"Abused me Keshi…they fucked me...it was horrible!" Lal was very depressed and alarmed to remember his past sexual encounter and started to cry desperately.

"I am sorry I made you remember that…I didn't know, please don't cry. I promise I won't break your wings…but don't cry." He went near him and held him tight, caressing softly his silver hair and kissing his shoulders. "Don't cry Lal…don't cry." He stood embracing the small figure of Lal while he cried, then touched his wings with tenderness and love. "Your wings are absolutely gorgeous…no one should even think about breaking them." Lal gave Keshi his back sitting on his lap to let him play with his clear wings, feeling warm lips slowly tracing them carefully. Keshi slid his hands on Lal's chest while he kissed his neck and ears. "My precious…" Lal rubbed his eyes and tried to calm down, and he did thinking Keshi would be different.

"I won't cry again."

"Smile…you are lovely when you smile." Lal turned around to face him giving him a wide beautiful smile. "Beautiful…"

"Keshi, would you please love me again."

"Don't beg…I can do it all night if you want...I know I want to."

"Keshi! Ha, ha!" Lal felt too happy, he couldn't believe he felt real happiness in his heart. He felt love from Keshi, but still knew he had too many fears inside, but even though, he made love to Lal for the rest of the night.

When the sun started to rise the next morning Keshi stood from the floor to place Lal on the bed covering his slender body from the cold morning breeze. "Lal…what can I do with you? My dear Lal…" He placed a kiss on Lal's cheek after caressing his lovely face and prepared something to eat for him and Kalkin, the beautiful beast had stay quiet all night long and Keshi wanted to reward him for his patience. "Here you go old pal…I'm sorry about last night…I'll see what I can do about Lal…I can't have him around if I want to get stronger…I need to practice my skills and…I'm afraid he can get hurt."

Kalkin ate and drank what his friend gave him and finally replyed to his words. They could communicate mentally, so he was used to listening to the wise beast. 'Keshi, you need to trust others, you must let go of your fears. Not everyone is evil and just because you love him it doesn't mean he will die. Don't be afraid to love, don't close the doors of your heart. Whatever happens to me it must happen…everything has a meaning, don't try to force your destiny to be one thing if it's leading you some place else. Love Lal, there is nothing wrong for you to love. You must love to live a happy life, otherwise you'll be unhappy forever.'

"You don't understand, Kalkin…it's just…"

'You are afraid to lose him, like you lose your parents and your brother, am I right?'

"Maybe…" A sound from the bed made him end the conversation with Kalkin and pay attention to the little figure moving in the bed. "He is awake…later, Kalkin…we'll talk later."

"Keshi?"

"I'm here, come have some breakfast with us."

"What are you having?"

"Some fruits and bread. Why?"

"I want some flowers."

"Ok, I'll get some…which ones?"

"Any…I like the purple ones the most." Keshi went outside to find the flowers his lover wanted not knowing he was being observed from behind. He ran back inside because of the cold weather and shut the door quickly. "Baby, you're shaking!"

"It's freezing outside, how you maintain these flowers alive? By the way, are these the ones?"

"Yes, those are fine."

"Then come here with us, I'm having breakfast with Kalkin." Lal took the blanket and sat on Keshi's lap wrapping him with it before he sat down. "Thanks." Keshi pressed Lal's body against his chest and started feeding his lover tenderly.

From the window black eyes starred at the scene of the two lovers kissing and eating breakfast lovingly while they laughed. 'Well, well, well…so our hero got himself a lover…a very unusual creature…hummm, very pretty too. Now I know the boy's weakness…at last I'll get rid of him. Ahriman won't win…this time I'll make sure to kill him.'

Lal put some flowers on Keshi's lips, but he made a funny face. "You don't like 'em? How come? They taste great!"

"I prefer the apples, really."

"How about you Kalkin?" Kalkin liked flowers and ate them. "You see…he have great taste!"

"So I don't?"

"Well…" Keshi tickled him and start a playful fight with the little haada ending the match with a long lasting kiss. "I love you Keshi…I really do."

Keshi pushed him away and stood up with an angry look on his face. "Get out."

"But why? We were just…"

"I said get out!" Lal didn't move an inch, he was confused with Keshi's attitude, one moment they kissed and the other he was yelling at him disgust at nothing but his presence. "Do you want me to kick you out of the house? I told you to leave after you recovered and you are still here. Go away and don't ever come back, understand? I don't want to see your face ever again!" Keshi threw the remaining flowers at Lal face nastily. "Get dressed and go!"

"Keshi…" Lal was shocked and very sad, he felt Keshi betrayed him almost with the same cruelty as the other fairies did. He used him or lied to him, and now was kicking him away from his life. The fairy felt broken, now more than ever. "I can see your heart is cold like the weather, you are cruel just like all the fairies in the forest… I may be the only creature with these looks and qualities, but no matter what you say or believe…I do have a soul and I have feelings…but you, you are the one with no soul! I hope…I hope you regret it some day!" Lal immediatly left to the forest to hide and cry all he wanted, but far, very far from the longhaired human who broke his heart in billion pieces.

Keshi felt horrible for what he did to the one he loved and felt broken inside one more time. "I'm sorry Lal…I'm sorry." Keshi slid to the floor crying for the wrong he caused his beloved haada, he knew what he felt and needed to push Lal away to control his feelings. "I can't be distracted…I can't love someone…I can't love or else Lal…Lal will suffer…"

'Don't you think you are making him suffer with your rejection?'

"It will be for the better…you don't understand, Kalkin, because you are not me."

'If I were you, I wouldn't hurt the one I love the way you did.'

"Kalkin!" Keshi felt even worse. He knew the alas was right and to hear it killed him. "You are right, but there is nothing I can do…if he stays, he'll die for sure."

"A fight between lovers…even more convenient for me. Ha, ha, ha!" Vritra left to find the human fairy he just saw fly away from Keshi's home to use him for his evil purposes. After long hours of searching, he finally found the small boy crying on the river.

"My life has no meaning…it never has…I guess it should be better if I…" Lal looked to the floor looking for something sharp and took a broken glass on his hands. "Adios, Keshi…" Lal lifted the glass to the air- to stab himself through the heart with it's sharp edge, when an unknown man grabbed his hand to stop him. "Huh?"

"Don't do it little one. There is no reason why…maybe I can help you."

Lal looked at the unknown man from head to toes. A long black cape was covering his tall body and his black hair fell softly on his shoulders. He was a beautiful man, but there was something scary about him, maybe all the black surrounding him was not the only thing black about him. "No one can help me."

"Perhaps you are wrong."

"No I'm not, I'm useless and my life has no meaning, so why live if I have nothing?"

"Let me guess…you lost someone you love and you want that person to love you. Am I right?" Lal nodded looking straight to the black eyes of the man, but still didn't trust him, there was something suspicious about him. "Then I got something special for you…it's a magic spell, a love spell. Whomever drinks it will love you forever."

"No. I want him to love me for me, not because of a spell."

"So it's a boy you like…maybe he likes girls little one…"

"I don't know…girls are ugly!" Lal had never liked girls since they'd always made fun of him because he was different. But the truth was that they were jealous of his beautiful and unusual looks.

"You think? Maybe you are right! Well…what do you say? You got nothing to lose if you try. I can assure you it will work, but if it doesn't…he already say no, so…tell me?"

"I don't know."

"I thought you loved this boy, but if you don't love him that much, then I'll give the spell to someone else. I saw you crying and I wanted to help…oh well…see you around pretty boy." The warlock turned away and walked slowly waiting for the small boy to react and stop him.

"Wait!" Vritra smirked knowing he'd accept his magic spell and then turned around to look at Lal. "I do love him…I just don't think love should be obliged."

"But what is love anyway but a spell! The perfect meeting, the perfect phrase, the perfect look…all a lie just to get what you want. There is no difference, it is only a little push nothing more."

"Maybe…ok, I got nothing to lose. I already lost him anyway."

"Don't fear…Vritra is here for the rescue. You'll have his love back in less than a blink of an eye. Just pour this into his drink and make sure he swallows it all…only then he will be yours."

"He must drink all?"

"Yes, if not, the spell won't work." Vritra gave Lal a small bottle with the magic spell, but a spell of love or a spell of death? "Remember child…he must drink it all, all."

"Yes." Vritra left and Lal looked at the bottle unsure to do it or not. "Keshi…should I even try? You hurt me so much…but I…I still love you." Lal stood up and flew slowly to Keshi's home. "Should I try talking to him first? What if he just throws me out again...? He said he didn't want to see my face…" Lal walked to the well Keshi dug some years ago and took out a bucket of water looking at his reflection on it. "Am I ugly? Is that why he doesn't want to see my face? He may think I am ugly just like everyone else…then why did he love me last night? Was he just playing with me or he was just curious like the others? I don't know…he was tender and then…why?" He heard a noise and hid behind the well, but it was only Kalkin, so he came out of his hideout. "Hello…is he there? I see…I don't understand him at all. Why is he sad if he kicked me away? Kalkin, you're wrong. You said he liked me, and he kicked me out and now you say he loves me? He can't love me when he treated me so bad…that's not love. Do you think I should go in? I will anyway." Even when Kalkin told him to leave Keshi alone, Lal insisted and went in, but threw the bottle with the spell to the floor.
