All the things you don't know (1x1)

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden was focused on the footsteps as Gale started to wiggle. "O-oi!" He yelled and tightened his grip. "Shut the fuck up!" He frowned as he grabbed his elbow harder and rose the gun to the blonde one's head. "Struggle and i'll blow your pretty face off, fuckboy" Hayden added. He had no idea where the hell they were suppose to go, so he just went with the flow as the blonde one lead the way. Then turned around when the guards arrived. "Not a step closer!" He yelled and held the cold barrel towards Gail's temple.

[Guest Eornostlice]

Having his elbow grabbed actually hurt. His entire body "froze" as the gun was pointed to his temple, stopping the strugging atogether. His pupils constricted as if he was actually scared, his body visibly shaking as he obediently walked with small careful steps, all the way back to one way glass room. He lightly nudged his elbow to the left -gesture that also hurt given how tight the raven's grip was- towards the wall that seemed ordinary spare for one single door one would see only if they were searching for it. All that could be seen was a similarly black doorknob and he previously left it u locked.

 

It did have a lock, but it was often that the scientists did not bother with it. Afterall each and every experiment was tied up and the lights in their eyes would make them basically blind to the rest of the room. There was therefore no reason for it to be constantly locked. Unlocking it each time could get rather annoying afterall.

 

In other words? It was a free pass towards the laboratories.

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden went along with Gale and stopped when he did. Althought he was too focused on the security guards and the mass of people standing infront of him to notice his grip was acually too hard. Then glanced at the door behind them when the blond one nugded his arm. "...Is this the door..?" Hayden whispered to his ear as he didn't let the guards out of his sight.

It wasn't until now that he realised how nice Gale acually smelled. A stupid little thing in an unpropriate situation.

The people in the facility were pretty gross and smelling. When beeing a lab rat, shower was the last thing on one's mind. The security guard weren't any better. They propably didn't had any time to shower either as they had work over their ears, trying to cover all of the shifts due to the lack of the personal. He himself propably smelled like death with the ton of half dried blood on his shirt. But the blood stopped running from his nose atleast.

[Guest Eornostlice]

Gale winced when the raven whispered into his ear, visibly "afraid", as if he had just been threatened with something that could leave him pale. He nodded his head shaking, not daring to open his mouth.

 

By now, Gale himself was sure he deserved some sort of nobel prize for acting. It seemed so real even he nearly believed it. The only minus was the fact that there was blood all over him. The blonde could not seem to move on from that. He liked being clean and proper, the only things he did not neglect when working being showers. One could say he was a slight clean freak even.

 

Once inside the glassroom, they could step into the hallway. From there on, they just had to enter the room numbered 11, lock the door and the play would be over. The problem was however telling the other the room number.

 

With his elbow held in such manner, his fingertips were reaching the other's arm. He took the best shot, using his pointer to "draw" on his shirt two paralel lines, hoping that he would get it was supposed to be a number.

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden aimed the gun at the guards so they wouldn't get any closer then they already were as he let Gail lead the way. They went smoothly trough the hallways and stopped by the doors with the numbers. The raven haired was pretty quick with understaning of which number it was suppose to be on the door and opened it, then pushed Gail inside and went in himself. "Fuck... That was intense" Hayden took a deep breath and put the gun away. He then looked at the blond man as he reached in his pocket for the key to the cuffs.

[Guest Eornostlice]

It seemed that finally they were out of any camera's range, without a need to keep up the act anymore. Gale let out a sigh, his act dropping instantly. Struggling and everything was energy-consuming, so he was glad to stop, just waiting for his handcuffs to be removed so he could lock the soor properly. The door had a security number to be pressed in order to lock and his in particular had a combination of 13 numbers. He got used to it, being now able to press it all out near instantly.

 

His "laboratory" had both a bathroom and a bedroom connected to the main room whoch was filled with research equipment, two if the freezers actually being full with food were he decide to hole up there. The food was limited to about 1 month and a half however, having been restocked recently. In other words, the room was the perfect little bunker to hide in.

 

"Hurry up a bit. These things are killing my wrists."

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden went over to the blonde with the key and looked at his wrists. He then snorted and bursted out laughing. "Oh, it's hurting you? I'm so sorry princess! He said as he unlocked the cuffs and took them off. The laughing matter was that the cuff marks were nothing compare to the cheese holes in his arms after the syringes. THAT hurt. But the scientist was of course not familiar with that feeling since he's a scientist and not a lab rat, taking shit whatever they inject him with.

[Guest Eornostlice]

The blonde simply glared at the raven, walking towards the security system to his left, not letting himself to be baited by the other's words. His fingers clicked on the numbered buttons with precision, 13 beeps in a row, followed by a metalic click, indicating that the door was finally locked with no way to be opened from outside. It was only then that with no warning Gale shrugged off his stained lab coat, letting it fall on the floor, followed by his shirt.

 

"You get rid of those rags too and take a bath. There MUST be something in my closet to fit. You stink." His voice was once more placid like his expression turning lifeless. The man had no awareness when it came down to the fact that he was bare chested. His body was anything but musculary, being able to be described as nothing else but slim, his tummy flat.

[BlueSecrecy]

"I'm sorry, I didn't really had the time to get ready for our little date. Hayden said and watched the blonde take his clothes off. Then stripped himself and threw his clothes onto the floor. Only the underwear standing between complete nudity. He didn't had any problems with neither seeing a naked man's body or get naked infront of one. After all, it was a military facility so there were no private showers when it came down to the bathrooms. Just a row with shower heads and no privacy. Some people even chose not to shower, beeing afraid of the more dominant males.... Another reason why people didn't shower.

Hayden wasn't too mucular, but he wasn't too skinny either. His body was anatomicly correct and well-proportionate. Althought his arms were all black and blue after the syringes. "What's your name even?" He asked as he looked at Gales naked upper body. Weird enough, he liked what he saw.

[Guest Eornostlice]

"Well you sure know hot to get your dates wet and messy." The blonde replied casually, pointing at his ruined lab coat. He was not going to wash them but throw them all away instead. It was not only that they were infected but also, he could not stand the scent of blood on himself. Even if it would get washed several times, the stink would simply refuse to go away. Call him obsessed, but he was not a fan of it.

 

On the bright side, he always enjoyed oversized shirts and pants when it came to sleep time so if searching well enough, surely there was something that fit the raven among the clothes stacked into his closet.

 

"On second thought, go clean yourself. I will bring you some clothes myself. It's the door to the right. Use the soap and shampoo on the second shelf, Also the big blue towel. Don't touch the pink one." The blonde had already stepped into the bedroom, opening his closet but not rushing to get clothes on. "Oh. My name is Gale. And yours?" He finally answered, his head fully into the closet, his order seeming completely reversed.

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden chuckled at Gales answer as he made his way to the bathroom. The first to be cleaned up was his face as he stopped infront of the sink and turned it on. The sink was really amazing, one could acually decide what temperature he wanted the water to be. And it wasn't only hot at satans butthole or cold as the planet pluto that wan't even part of the solar system anymore. There was acually lukewarm water.

The raven looked towards the door as he heard the blonde ask for his name. His name that he had forgotten long time ago, but the only thing that reminded him of it was his dog tags. He took up one of them and read. "#505, Hayden or Faye. I dunno" Hayden said as he made a little bowl and collected water with his hands, then washed his face. The cheekbone of his was really sore after the hit he had taken and started to get swollen. That area of his face was not to touch.

 

After the raven haired washed his face and heard the directions of not using the pink towel, he was of course going to use the pink towel. It was a habit of his to do the opposite of what people told him to do, then he didn't felt so forced to do the task, but felt freedom to do as he pleased. Hayden grabbed the pink towel and wiped his face.

[Guest Eornostlice]

"Hayden." Faye sounded sort of like a surname so gale went with the other name. He did not feel like using a number if he was adressed by his name rather than "filthy scientist" or "beast". He had managed to get plenty of such distasteful nicknamed and even tho he could not say he was truly bothered by any of them, he did not feel like showing them any human decency either. Perhaps he was odd.

 

After a good minute of checking, he ended up pulling out his favorite sleepwear, mostly because he decided it would fit the other best. There were few things his size, even tho he liked oversized clothes in general. Mostlg because the other was fucking huge.

 

Gale felt the need to bath himself but that would have to wait. The door to the bathroom was suprisingly not locked so he let himself in, the black comfy shirt and a pair of shorts neatly folded in his arms. His eyebrows twitched.

 

"Oh for fuck's sake. Are you colorblind?" He really did not like sharing items like towels, feeling that they were as intimate as underwear was, even if not used for the same thing. "Here. Fresh clothes. Remind me to disinfect that towel later." his eyebrows were a full frown.

[BlueSecrecy]

The blonde's reaction was really interesting to Hayden as it was the first time he saw such a clean freak. On the otherside, he propably every possible illness in his body after the months of them experimenting on him. "I'm really colorblind" The raven haired smiled. "And if we are going to get trapped in here for a while, the towel won't be the only thing you'll have to share with me, so don't be such a drama queen" He added as he took the clothes and put them on top of the toilet seat, then pulled his underwear off and stepped in the shower without caring that Gail was still in his presence. The lukewar mwater was a real blessing as he turned on the water.

[Guest Eornostlice]

Gale literally gave it all up, so much more when with no shame the raven simply stripped down to his glory, steppig into the shower. The blonde simply covered his own eyes with his palm, his expression stiff but a slight shade of pink making its way to his cheeks and he turned around, walking out and slamming the door shut behind him without another word. He was simply done with trying to get the male understand basic human decency and common knowledge.

 

He had the distinct feeling that the experiment was going to be a particularly long and tiresome one. However, he needed the results and was already an accomplice so it was a bit too late for second thoughts. The blonde shook his head, his thoughts making him smile only a little bit.

 

For a lab rat, the other wasn't so much in a bad shape.

[BlueSecrecy]

"You don't wanna watch?" Hayden yelled after Gale went out. It took a long while before the raven haired was finished with the shower and came out of the bathroom fresh and clean like a daisy. His hair still dripping and looked much longer then before. It was really refreshing to take a shower after beeing drenched with the blood.

Hayden looked around the room as he walked out of the bathroom. The clothes that were given to him were almost his size, the shirt beeing tight, but fitting and followed his figure neatly, the same with the shorts. " Hey, I was thinking... " He said and went over to a shelf with testing tubes and picked up one, looking closely at the weird liquid inside. "We have to have a plan for what we will do when we have to leave this place. Because let's face it. We can't stay here forever" He added and looked at the blonde.

[Guest Eornostlice]

The blonde was burried in a stack of papers, wearing fresh soft clothes and a snow-white new lab coat as he scanned through the mountain of information. Gale adjusted his glasses, only looking at the young man through the corners of his eyes, taking his time before putting the written sheet of paper back down on the pile. It was obviously his own research material and he was triple-checking it omce more for any possible mistakes. Luckily he did not find any.

 

"What makes you think I plan to leave here?" the blonde lifted up his glasses, rubbing at his eyes. "The deal was that I get YOU out, was it not?" Gale lifted one eyebrow, as if he had overlooked some sort of major part of the Terms and Conditions file of a contract.

[BlueSecrecy]

"Right... Forgot that you acually like living like a robot. You can come with me thought." Hayden said and looked over at a doorway to what seemed to be a bedroom. Gale's bedroom. He put down the tube as the room caught his attention and he couldn't help but go there, just to see if the blond one had some embarassments hidden in there. "You know... You really should get some sleep. It's not good to overwork your brain." He then added as he stepped into the blondes bedroom and looked around to see what it looked like. Needless to say, Hayden didn't had his hopes up that it would be messy.

[Guest Eornostlice]

"It does not concern you, but unlike you, I have a reason for being here. Also a goal." As much as he did not like to admit it, the blonde was indeed exhausted. Perhaps continuing with the research now was going to make him lose his ability of paying attention to details, not bringing any sort of progress to his work but likely causing failure easily. Failure was not something he could afford in such situation. He got up, not worried about Hayden reading his papers. Even if he tried, he would not understand half of it. His glasses were removed and placed on top of the pile of papers.

 

Gale's bedroom was kept rather simple and tidy. One double bed and a computer on a desk mostly made up the entire room, a fluffy carpet placed in the middle. In one corner, stacked neatly were even more pieces of used paper. It didnnot require a genius to realize that those were somehow related to his research as well. The only other item in the room was the fairly big closet. Everything was placed to the sides, with the fluffy carpet being the only thing to lay in the middle of the room.

 

"I only have one proper blanket so it seems we will share the bed. If you do not like it, you may as well use the carpet." The blonde carelessly climbed on top of the bed, crawling to the side.

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden shrugged at what he said. "You can have the bed all for yourself... I'm too filthy to be in your presence. He mumbled and turned around to leave. He was not even slightly tired. Maybe it was because of the pills, but it felt like he had the energy to run two marathons in one go. The only thing he had left to do was to eat something, now that he thought of it, he was acually really hungry.

The raven haired left the room and went into the main area in search for a kichen place or something similar to a fridge.

[Guest Eornostlice]

The blonde rolled his eyes, not impressed by the sarcastic comments thrown at him anymore. The raven was truly a child. Alright, perhaps he himself was fairly childish but the point still stood. He was sure that Hayden would be curious to scout the place and poke his nose everywhere. Whatever he needed was there either way, so there would be nothing that he was needed for.

 

Gale curled up, to the point that his knees were reaching his chest and closed his eyes. He was way more accustomed to mental activity than he was to anything physical so probably the little act they put up was draining. He should have taken a bath. But he would just worry about it when he woke up from his nap.

 

His entire body relaxed in a couple of moments, his chest peacefully moving slowly as he breathed, already having fallen asleep.

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden looked around and found a room that looked like a kitchen. He then went inside and over to the fridge, to see if there was anything interesting, and interesting would be anything but meatloaf and potatoes that they got everyday for lunch and dinner. It was quite disgusting and after only a week it was staring to get really tiresome to eat the same food.

 

The raven haired opened the fridge and stuck his head in to see what was inside. There were alot of things in there that he haven't seen in a really long tme. Milk, fruit, vegetables, hotdogs, eggs, even condiments. It was almost nostalogic for some reason. Maybe it was in the back of his head and just looking at it all triggered some parts of his memory. He suddenly felt the urge to fry pancakes, althought he didn't even knew it was suppose to become pancakes as he grabbed milk, eggs and some flour he found in a pantry and just mixed it all together.

It was quite amazing how much energy the raven haired had as he turned on the stove and grabbed a frying pan, humming to himself.

[Guest Eornostlice]

There was a soft noise coming from the kitchen. Gale was in a light sort of sleep, so he could hear it. It was the sound of someone cooking. But in his mind, he was no longer 24 and not working in a research facility. He was a child, laying in bed in the morning, already awake but faking sleep, carefully awaiting his sister's waking up call. He was dreaming, his mind making up scenes as if they belonged to his memory and not part of his imagination.

 

There were soft humming sounds, clearly the person inside the kitchen enjoying themselves while cooking. It felt peaceful.

 

The small body of the man actually relaxed even further, spreading on the mattress, no longer tightly curled up, just like a cat would in sunlight.

[BlueSecrecy]

It took Hayden a few hours until he was done with the 3 plates full of pancakes towers. It was way more then two people could eat in one go or even in two. But he felt like he could make food for the whole facility himself, then clean all the floors with a toothbrush in less then half a day. With his mind going 1000 mph this time he started to clean up the kitchen, only to make even more mess. He didn't had time to process what he was doing as the thought went way faster then his body and hands could handle. Starting cleaning the stove only to realize that the frying pan was still on and burning on the stove. He then noticed that the dishes were really dirty so he put back the frying pan to continnue burning and started to do the dishes instead only to ending up in the penatry, orginizeing the cans and boxes of food by the alphabetic order, leaving both the water and the stove on, along with the counters full of dirty dishes and failed pacakes laying all over.

[Guest Eornostlice]

A smell of something burning along with the loud sound of water seemed to suddenly surface insude the blonde's mind, irritating him. He groaned softly, taking full moments before his eyes snapped completely open, his body jerking up from the bed as if having been touched by electricity. Gale jumped off the bed, rushing to the kitchen, only to be greeted by a complete disaster.

 

"Oh for fuck's sake!" the blonde cursed out loud, turning off the stove and water as well, glaring daggers at the raven as he caught both of his arms. It was obvious that something in the male's brain just went funny, and he should have been aware that something might happen. He let his guard down only because the bleeding disappeared in a matter of seconds, with no side effects surfacing. Was it a side effect even?

 

"Alright. Mind telling me what are you doing?" both of the raven's wrists were gripped tightly, in order to stop him from moving.

[BlueSecrecy]

Hayden gasped as Gale grabbed his wrist, he wasn't prepared for that. "Fuck! You scared the shit out of me!" He said, not even trying to get put of his grip. "I couldn't sleep so I went to eat something and thought; 'Hey why not make some pancakes?' So then I started to fry them and dishes started to pile up and shit so I was about to take care of them but then there was no soap anymore and so I though that there was some in the pentry. But when I opened it, there was a huge mess in there so I started to orginize it and then you came out of nowhere and scared the flying fuck out of me." He tried to explain so the blonde one would understand, even though Hayden spoke almost with the speed of light. " Hey, you smell really nice" He then added out of nowhere. " Like everyone else here smell gross here, even the staff, but you smell nice. Like flowers or something." Hayden continued, he couldn't stop once he started to talk. "You want some pancakes? There are plenty. I couldn't find syrup, but there is honey and weird fruit coctail or something I found back in the fridge.
