He still had his pride and knocking on the other's door meant defeat. He couldn't allow that. He looked at his wrist, it was 10:00PM and the male was tired. Tired that he would collapse at any moment. He found himself pacing back and forth outside the other's door. 'Maybe, this was a bad idea after all?' He wanted to leave, but knew that the other was in turmoil. The other's less than perfect ideals were getting to him. 'How could I even do this anymore?' He asked. His heart was beating fast, his palms sweaty, and the male was at a standstill. The male had a decision to make: to knock or leave? That was the question. [7 minutes later] When the other opened the door. The male was taken by surprise. He didn't expect to see the other leave so suddenly. What was more shocking to him was the smell of blood. Blood was dripping from the other's wrist and down his pants. "Fin-," the words that the male wanted to say couldn't come out. The male was shocked, he was dealing with a cutter. The male looked in the other hand, 'a blade?' He felt himself panicking, up until that point in his life, things like self mutilation were never real to him, they were a part of news and no one in his close personal circle cut themselves. At least that's what he thought. The male was ignorant of the world around him. On the inside he screamed. "Fin-....what the hell are you doing?!"

beatlechan Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Finian felt his vision swim as he stood there watching his boss. "S-sir w-what are you doing here?" Finian tried to take a step forward but his legs gave out and he fell forward toppling down on Daniel. He tried to speak but he passed out groaning in pain. He really did it this time. That was his last thought before he completely blacked out. - - - Updated - - - Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The male opened his mouth, but before he could say anything the other fell on top of him. Toppling over the other like a pile of books. "Baka. This is what happens when you drink too much and do stupid things." At this point in time the male was angry. 'Cutting yourself? Preposterous!!' He male pushed the other off of him and carried his body inside, putting him on the couch. "I guess I have to clean him up first and see how bad it is." 'I wonder where's his first-aid kit? Bathroom maybe?' He left the other laying and the couch and walked upstairs looking for the bathroom. He was impressed at the art hanging on the other's wall. It was beautiful. The male was blown away. 'I guess you can't judge a book by its cover, huh?' After digging through the other's medicine's cabinet, he was able to find a small box of bandages. 'Not much in here..' 'I'm actually surprised that his rooms are tidied and neat. Looking at him you wouldn't even be able to tell.' Walking back down to the living room the male, cleaned the wound and started bandaging the other's wrist. He sat there on the adjacent couch watching the other. The other wasn't waking up and the male was getting anxious. He wanted to bring the other to the hospital, but was worried about his reputation as a respected businessmen and as well as the sexuality rumors that were going around. His reputation meant more to him than anything else. But looking at the other male, who was now in a cold sweat made him worried. "Maybe I should go now?" Sighed. 'Maybe...?'

beatlechan Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Finian groaned and opened his eyes. His vision was blurry but he could make out the sillohutte of someone sitting. From his scrambled memories. He gasped and sat up feeling the dizziness but he ignored it. "S-sir? So I wasn't imagining it. w-why are you here? Did you follow me home?"

The male sat there with his hand on his chin, debating whether or not he should take the male to the hospital. The other male wasn't looking good and the bandage were soaked with blood. The incision looked deep, but the male wasn't sure. He wasn't a doctor, nor has he ever seen anything like this before. It was all new to him and it was also a total shock. A boss caring for an inept employee and one that was new at that. 'Maybe, I should take him after all? It doesn't look good, no matter how you look at it. Maybe, I should just drop him off and leave??' It wasn't until he made up his mind on going that the other opened his eyes. "S-sir? So I wasn't imagining it. w-why are you here? Did you follow me home?" He was amazed that the other was even able to put words together, let alone talk. He was drunk and out of it just hours before the incident. "Yes, I did follow you home. So what of it??" The male lightly chuckled, with a disgusted look on his face. "And what's your point. I couldn't have you tarnish my name or the company's name. After all I was the last person you talked to. If something had happened to you, then I would have been responsible." He paused. "I didn't think your unruly and odd behavior would go this far. Cutting yourself. For what? You didn't want to live? You wanted to put yourself out of misery? You've got to be kidding me!" Pfft. The male was enraged and wasn't able to calm himself down. He grabbed the other by the shirt. "I'm taking you to the hospital to get that check out and no ifs, ands or buts about it. Got that?!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 "But sir if i go i won't be able to work. I don't think you want that my first week. Besides i already started. I'm f-fine ok? T-this is something I've dealt with for years. I have materials for things like this". He reached up pulling his shirt from Daniel's hand and sat back on the couch. " If you want to help please get my kit from the bathroom. Its straight down the hall and to the right". Finian closed his eyes for a quick second while he rested on the couch. "So why did you follow me home? I mean im sure you've seen drunk fools before. Walking and bumbling their way home. I don't buy this rep shit. People don't know i work for you yet. So why"?

You are going to the hospital and that's that! Like I said I would like you to have the task completed by the end of next week and since you're contracted you don't get paid an hourly wage. You get paid when the task is completed. The assignment is due in one week's time. Yet a hospital visit will take at few hours at most." The male backed away when the other grabbed his hand forcing him to let go of the shirt. The male then crossed his arms, taking a second to think. Then he walked into the kitchen and filled a glass of water for the male. 'Ah, I-' Then, he proceeded to the bathroom in pursue of the kit. Whilst in the bathroom the male looked around the medicine cabinet, he was looking for sleeping pills. The male was in luck, the other had a bottle of sleeping aid. The male grinned. He popped two pills from the container and slipped it into the glass of water. He waited until it dissolved. Casually he walked out of the first floor's bathroom and sat down next to the male. "Fin, please take a drink of water first," as he put the glass right next to the males's mouth. He smiled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Finian shakes head. "No thank you. The cuts need to be tended to before they get infected. I will have some after. Just let me do this. As I said, this Isn't the first time. I know what I'm doing." He looked up shoving , the water out of his face. What are you doing here anyway? You never answered my question". Finian pushes himself off the couch to stand up and look at Daniel waiting for an answer. He continues to clean, add ointment, and bandage his marks while waiting. When he finally finishes he walks closer watching for a reaction. "What are you doing here Daniel"? - - - Updated - - - Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.

The other was pissing him off to no ends. He paused, taking in a deep breath. He took a step back, backing away and regaining his personal space. His arms were criss crossed over his chest. He began, "What am I doing here?" He lightly chuckled. "I've already told you. Weren't you listening or was the shock of seeing me here erased all of your twisted fantasies?" "Yes, I did follow you home. So what of it?? And what's your point. I couldn't have you tarnish my name or the company's name. After all I was the last person you talked to. If something had happened to you, then I would have been responsible." 'Tch.' "Like I said, my reputation means everything to me. Don't you get it? I can't have you ruining everything I've worked so hard to get." The male grabbing the glass of water, "Here drink up! Or would you rather still be defiant with me??"

beatlechan Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Finian watched him for a minute. "I'm not drinking it. You may be my boss but I live here. You can't tell me what to do. Look thank you for helping but you don't have to be an ass". Finian stepped away and continued to clean his wounds Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.

He meant well, he just wanted the other to sleep, so he could take the him to the hospital. The male was worried about the other in his own twisted way. The rejection left a bitter taste in his mouth. Daniel never felt so humiliated. 'Tch, that bastard..' "Fine. Do what you want. I'm gonna be on my way. Please pardon my intrusion." Daniel wanted to get out of the apartment and fast. He was never so angry in his life. He threw his pride away just to help the other. But the other didn't realize the compromise in his gesture and threw his pride down the drain. He grabbed his coat and walked out the door, running down the stairs. He stopped to look back and read the apartment number. Mentally taking it down. The male then pulled out a box of cigarettes and lit one. With one hand he put on his coat and began walking back in the direction of the pub. 'Hmm..' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Finian sighed when he left. He wasn't stupid he knew what he was up too. Trying to make him sleep so he can drag him off to the hospital. He knows what his sleeping meds smell like once it breaks down. After cleaning up Finian plopped on his couch. He felt bad for going off but he needed to be clear with Daniel. He did appreciate the concern. He hasn't had that happen for a long time but no one comes in his home and tells him what to do. He considers going back to the bar but what good would that do. He sighed and turned the tv on and started flipping through the channels. Once he had enough of that he threw the remote down and grabbed his camera flipping through the pictures . He took some nice shots he actually shocked they came out so good. He smiled and set the camera down gently. He decided to call it a night. Maybe he'll send a card to apologize tomorrow. At least he has one more day before he has to face him. When he thought about Daniel something in his stomach churned but he ignored it. Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.

He plopped down on the first stool that he saw. "Give me 3 shots of vodka won't you Marc? I've had a long day...blah." The bartender smiled and nodded, walking over to the male. "Hey, who was that guy earlier?" "What are you talking about?" The male asked as if he was confused. He had a hunch of what the other was talking about but he had to play it cool. If he readily admit to knowing the other than what about his clean reputation as the tyrant boss? He couldn't afford to admit it straightforwardly, so he played dumb. "I mean that guy. He was in here for a few hours before you got here. While he was ordering some drinks, he rested his head on the counter and kept calling 'Daniel.' Of course I didn't think it was you. I thought it was some other Daniel." The bartender lightly laughed. "Hmm. Take it from me, I have first hand experience with what alcohol can do to a person. It tends to bring out the worst in people. If I can say so myself, I think he likes you." The male was dumbfounded by the confession. 'Like? Seriously...?'

beatlechan Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Finian sighed and got up from the couch. He looked around. Nothing really needed to be cleaned so he opted for a quick shower before he went to bed. He went to his room to grab his night clothes and towels. He whistled as he headed to the bathroom and opened the door. He walked over to the shower and turned the water on. After awhile he set it to the proper temperature and got in. After 20 minutes he finally got out and toweled off. He went back into the room slipping his boxers on and climbed into bed. While he was in bed, he was restless. Somewhere in the back of his mind Daniel kept popping into his thoughts. He shook his head and closed his eyes tighter trying to ignore the giddy feeling that he was getting when his thoughts went to the other man. Five minutes later he flipped on his side letting out a long sigh finally deciding to sleep but Daniel wasn't too far from his thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't want to get on the bandwagon and decided to call it a night. "Well, I really have no idea what you're talking about. Him? Seriously, being associated with people like him will only drag your name through dirt." The male took the shots and got up. "Thanks but no thanks. I'm gonna head out. Ttyl." Daniel gritted his teeth. He wanted to fight back, but blowing up now would bring more question looming over his sexuality. So he kept quiet and kept it hidden. "Okay. After I close up would you mind if I head over to your place," Marc joked. "Fine!" The male replied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Finian continued to toss and turn through the night. He huffed and finally got up. He checked on his wounds and cleaned them again. When he finished he went to the computer and decided to search for a flower/card delivery place and decided to send a apology bouquet to Daniel. He sighed as he checked the price but did it anyway. Thinking out loud he murmers. "I hope he likes it". Digging out his card and the office address he filled out the information and paid for the delivery. Once he finished he got back into bed and slept more peaceful through the night Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking a puff from his cigar as he reclined back. His legs were on top of each other and laid there thinking about the events of the night which was on replay in his mind. It was such a pity that he gave into his pride and wanted to help the other. The male wasn’t too happy. He threw his pride and it was spat back in his face and he vowed that he would never let that happen again. Showing vulnerability was no exception, especially after what happened one year prior. It was time to move on and erase everything. Starting Monday, no more Mr. Nice guy. Daniel looked at the fireplace and there hung a picture of the picture perfect family that he once was a part of. The family was no more. His wife gone and the once perfect father was now a widower. The worst part of it all, the male hadn’t even had time to mourn his loss and in the last six months through the grapevine he was deemed a closeted homosexual. If the rumors were true, sure as heck the male didn't even knew about it. “Preposterous!” He sat there and thought about what the bartender joked about earlier. ‘Finian having feelings for me? We just met...can’t be?’ “Me, gay?” Even his best friend even believe those rumors. The male was hurt. He buried his face in the crook of his arm. It was all a nightmare that male wanted to end. On the other hand, Finian being gay was a different story. The male didn't have anything to say other than the fact that the male knew it had a ring of truth to it. 'Maybe...slightly..?' And he knew it from the gut feeling he had earlier in the meeting that day. He knew that Finian was an oddball, but he never wanted to admit that the male caught his interest the moment they met on some twisted spectrum in the darkest place in his mind. The male lightly chuckled, "Hah!! I would love to see him level that playing field," as he sat there smirking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 The next day Finian got up and decided to so some walking around the neighborhood to get familiar. The package was on his mind. He wondered if Daniel would go in on a Sunday. Part of him wanted him to so they can avoid the embarrassment on Monday. But what if he didn't see it til Monday? In front of everyone. Finian gulped as a cold sweat broke out. The anxiety that wracked his body. He regretted sending it. He had to call Daniel to tell him. He sighed as he walked down the street back to his house quickly and sat on the couch staring at the phone. He rummaged through the papers from the job searching for the number. When he came across it he stared for a few minutes. Did he really want to do this? No but its best if Daniel found this alone vs. a room filed of coworkers. God he wanted to punch himself. He didnt think and now he unlocks his phone and starts to dial Daniel. - - - Updated - - - Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.

The warmth of the fireplace filled the room and the scents from the candles that the male lit right as he walked in the door, which filled the room with a whimsical scent that permeated throughout the entire house. It smelled like sweet vanilla lavender. Which the male loved. The male still had a box of his wife's belongings, that were miraculously saved from the house fire and ironically those things were her candles. She fancied candles. Whenever the male found himself feeling lonely the male would sit back and enjoy the scents that brought a feeling of nostalgia whenever he feels the need to. Tonight was a different night than all the others. It was exactly two days before the one year mark that his wife passed away. The male huffed, 'Ahh.' He wiggled his bottom snugly on the recliner reminiscing the what ifs of his marriage. The male frowned, everything up until that point were regrets for the male. Any minute from now the male was expecting a guest. "Ah.. Fin-..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Finian held the phone tightly as it rang. He hopd he woukd answer but scared at the same time. He didn't want to have to explain the embarrassing situation but it would be better then doing it in front of everyone. He mumbled to himself "please answer, please answer". He sighed as it rang for the 15th time. Maybe he'll leave a voice mail if he didn't answer. He sighedband hung up redialing the number Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links.

It haunted him in so many ways. The nightmare that he had after his wife passed away lingered in the back of his mind. If only he could go back in time. He wouldn't have left on that business trip and his wife wouldn't have died in the most gruesomest way. His mind was a jumbled mess. Between his past and work life, the male couldn't separate the two. He couldn't get the other out of his mind. . . . Daniel was on edge, he was expecting Marc. 'What's taking him so long? The place should have been closed already.' [2 hours later] It was roughly two o'clock in the morning and there was a loud banging at the door. 'Seriously?' The male was half asleep, in a daze the male walked to the door. He was too sleepy to think before opening the door. "Marc? What-" "Yo wassup dude. I told you I would come. I've been calling you all night, why haven't you answered my messages? I said that I would be late on the account I met a girl and we hit it off until her boyfriend showed up. Oops... Hmmm. Ahh, you don't look too good." Marc laughed. It took a second for the male to comprehend what the other was saying. 'Pho...Fini...shit!!' "I left my phone at Fini-. Shit, all of my emails are on there and the company's finances. Privacy la-laws. Crap! I have to go back!" The male shouted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Finian sighed and hung up the phone. Maybe he should consider looking for another job. He doesn't see how they will have a productive work relationship if they can't get along now. He put his phone on the charger and decides to go to bed. He is gonna have a long day tomorrow. On the way he hoped for patience and understanding. When he reached the room he dragged his shirt off throwing it on the chair and shimmied out of his jeans crawling in bed in his boxers. His back hit the cool sheets and he sighed closing his eyes. - - - Updated - - - Please Register/ Sign In, in order to see the links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pushed the other male out of the way whilst running out the door. "Watch the house wont chu?! Be back in thirty." The male's innards churned at the thought of classified informational theft. He had no time, what if the other snooped on his phone? The male was not trusted, he was a contracted employee and a new one at that. And who knows what would happen to the company when financial data get leaked. The male begin to panic. How would he act? What should he say? Everything loomed in his head. Putting aside his turmoil and his pride, the male rushed over to Finian's apartment two fifteen in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlechan Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Finian was not asleep as much as he wanted to be. His mind wouldn't shut off. He got up and went to the living room and turned the TV on just for some background noise. He got up checked his cuts and plopped on the couch. He grabbed the remote and started flipping through the channels. While watching tv he heard some beeping but he ignored it and continued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
