As the morning sun appeared from the curtains onto Alex's face, he slowly stirred from his slumber when the sun rays shined on his face. He yawned softly before groaning and rubbed his head. 'Ah shit, what happened?' He thought to himself while rubbing his head. He tried to sit up only to be brought back down. "Good morning baby boy~." Alex tensed up and screamed out as loud as he can. Apparently loud enough to wake the whole building. There were loud thumps of footsteps and then the door burst open. Alex stormed in. What the hell is--" He stopped in his tracks and sighed softly once he saw Alen on top of the screaming boy. "What--" "He woke up which woke me up, I said good morning then he decided to scream like a little shit." Jack face palmed and walked towards the screaming boy. He grabbed him by the face which caused him to tense up and look at him. Tears formed in his eyes and tackled Jack to the ground. "I-I may hate you but...thank you..." He sobbed. Jack rolled his eyes and chuckled softly. "Your welcome shorty." He replied and patted his head. Alex slowly looked up and whimpered. "W-Who are you people?" He trembled and gripped Jack's shorts. Jack rolled his eyes and flicked Alex's forehead. "Friends of mine that you'll get used to in a few months." He replied before standing up. "Well---Wait, in a few months!!?" He screamed. Jack chuckled softly and sat on the edge of the bed digging in his ears. "Apparently, D said she wanted you safe and this is my way of keeping you save." Alex looked down and gripped the shirt he was wearing as tears streamed down his cheeks. "Why...why did you do this D?!" He cried. Alen lifted his chin and wiped his tears. "Kid, she's worried about you and she asked Jack ifhe can watch you, so this is his way of doing it." Alex whimpered before turning his gaze to Jack who was glaring at the older male. Alex growled and jumped at Jack. "You asshole!!" He yelled. Jack moved to the side while Alex jet jumping at him while the others watched closely. Once he threw his last hit, Jack grabbed his arm and slammed him against the wall which caused Alex's head to hurt more and scream in pain. He grabbed his head and fell to his side. "Lesson learned brat..." He grabbed Alex's hair, lifting him up. "...Don't try to attack me when you're hurt." Alex whimpered and passed out. "Aww, that wasn't nice." Jack groaned and turned to the soft voice. "Piss off Lilly." The giggling girl stepped out of the corner and wrapped her arms around him. "You know you want to. And plus you should've let him sleep with me." The male rolled his eyes and placed his hand on hers. And how do you think he'd react? He'd probably freak out if he saw that he was in bed with a girl." She giggled and walked towards Alex then ran a hand through his hair. He's so cute. I really want to keep him. Or even stay with him. But that may not happen." She jumped up and skipped out the room. "Be more careful with him Jack. He's like a toy. And make sure he doesn't bleed like he is now. But with that aside, breakfast is ready big brother." She giggled and skipped away. Jack growled and clenched his fists. “Little shit…” He looked towards Alex and sighed. “Take him back to the other room to get fixed again. This kid’s gonna be in for a lot of shit with us." After a while of fixing the knocked out boy, Lilly walked in and sat in a nearby chair with a sigh. She ran a hand through his hair and chuckled softly. “Oh your so cute.” She cooed while rubbing his soft hair. He shifted lightly which caused her to move her hand back. He groaned and opened his eyes. "Ow, that really hurt." He whined and put the pillow over his face. She chuckled softly and ran a hand through his hair. He relaxed slowly and pulled the pillow off his face. "Why am I really here?" He asked in an annoyed tone. Lilly chuckled softly and cupped his face. "Jack wants to protect you so...this is his way of doing it." Alex rolled his eyes and stood up slowly as to not make his headache worse. "Whatever." He grabbed his jacket and walked out the door to see nothing but an empty street. He walked out and looked around at the houses. They were all abandoned and that's when Alex started to panic. "W-Whe-ere a-am I?” He gripped his hair and fell on his knees. “Alex, are you ok?” He screamed out loud and banged his head against the wall. Lilly pulled him back, which resulted in her getting a scratch in the face that wasn’t too hard. She hissed slightly still holding him until the others came out to hold him down. Jack slowly walked towards him and pushed down on his pressure point hard. Alex stopped moving and passed out. “Alright, I’m gonna go to John so he can give me some info on this brat. I should’ve asked D about his medical problems.” He growled and dragged the small male inside.

Jack's POV

I banged on John's door and heard a soft chuckle. He opened the door and leaned on the door frame with a smirk. "So you finally decided to knock." I rolled my eyes and pushed past him with Alex in my arms. I dropped him on the bed and sat on the closest chair. "I need all the info on this brat before I leave him for the dogs.” John laughed softly and sat down in the chair before cracking his knuckles. “And you know D’s gonna kill you for it when the cops let her torture you to death.” I rolled my eyes and rolled towards him in the chair. “Here we are. Alex Black.” I maximized the screen and looked closely. I looked at his medical problems once I read everything. “Scratching his skin, banging his head against the wall and biting his nails." I rolled towards Alex and lifted his sleeves to see a few marks on his skin, then lifted his head to see that the pillow had a little bit of blood on it. “Well the banging his head on the wall and skin scratching aren’t lies.” I sighed and laid him down along with rolling his sleeves down. “And apparently neither are the nail biting. That scratch he gave her barely made her bleed.” Alen replied once he walked in and closed the door. “Good.” I continued to read until John chuckled softly. “There’s something that should catch your eye.” I looked at him confusingly and continued to read on and on until I saw what he meant. His sexuality. He’s gay. “Heh, he’s just like you.” Alen smiled and patted his back. “Jack sighed and ran a hand through his hair. “You know he hates me after I kidnapped him. There’s no way me and him will happen.” I heard John laugh and wrap an arm around me. “Ya think he’s like that other kid?” I tensed up and gripped his jacket. I heard him sigh and pat my back. “Sorry. But after his death, I couldn’t stop thinking about that kid after Jake turned him on us and killed him when he tried to come back.” I sighed lightly and let go of his jacket and ran a hand through my hair. Damn this is a bad habit. I looked at Alex and sighed softly. “You’re gonna go through a lot of hell while your here. First thing’s first, you’re gonna have to learn how to not piss me off.” I chuckled and ran a hand through his hair. “John, you mind if he sleeps in here tonight? I need to clean his room since I know he hates dirty places.” John nodded. “I don’t mind as long as he doesn’t kick me out of the bed.” He laughed along with Alen while I chuckled softly. “I’ll give him a new shirt and some boxers. You mind bringing him breakfast please?” He asked. I nodded and walked out to get breakfast. I sighed and looked out the window. Well…I can’t wait till he tries finds us. Well...if he can.
