Save a horse, ride a vampire?

"So this guy's not...in his room...and he's not...responding to his phone." Tacito said.

"Freddie must be busy doing something important, he said that if I couldn't reach him via phone, he's most likely doing something that requires all of his attention, but what could it be?" Jasper questioned.

"Btw, how come you have Fernando's number? I mean I didn't expect any of us besides Ned and Faunus to have it!" Yurei asked.

The three of them were now talking inside Fernando's empty room.

"I got it earlier at the hotel after the whole Edward thing." Jasper replied, "So you're friends with him now?" Yurei asked.

"Kind of..." Jasper said while eyeing Tacito, "What?" Tacito asked when he noticed that.

"Tacito can you do me a favor? I can't trust Yurei with it, since he's dumb." Jasper said.

"HEY!" Yurei yelled.

Chuckling, "Yes, you can ask." Tacito said, "Thanks, While me and Yurei continue searching, you go find the others and tell them we still haven't found Freddie, And ask them if they found their missing people." Jasper said.

"Okay...see you in few." Tacito replied before walking away.

When Jasper was sure Tacito was gone, "Good thing you did that Jasper because I was trying to find a way to separate us from him, so I can tell you that...!" Yurei was about to say when Jasper finished it, "That whatever that thing is, it's not The real Tacito."

Surprised, "How did you know?!" Yurei asked, "He spoke more than 3 words at once many times, and he avoided using names other than yours.

Plus, somehow I'm no longer attracted to him." Jasper bluntly explained.

"You're attracted to him?!"

"Is that all that matters to you?!"

"You have a mate?"

"Having a mate stops me from falling in love with someone else, and I'm not in love with Tacito, he's just sexy to me...though I do care about him like a friend."

Dumbfounded, Yurei just stared at Jasper Who sighed at him.

"Anyways, like I said that thing isn't Taci, and I'm putting money on it that we're in some deep shit that we're not even aware of, and the only person who might be able to help us, And I mean Freddie...isn't here." Jasper replied.

...Meanwhile...

Finding Grey's room to be empty, Henrietta sighed, "This kid...where is he now? It's not like Grey to just disappear...unless he was kidnapped again?" she questioned.

"I doubt that! Try calling him before we search elsewhere." Jade suggested, "Oh my! I feel stupid, how come none of us thought about calling him? thank you Jade!" Faunus replied dialing his cousin's number, but to his surprise, Grey stopped the call on purpose.

"Umm, this is new!" Faunus said, "Try calling again!" Henrietta replied, so Faunus did but got the same result.

This went on for few times, and Henrietta was fed-up, "I knew Grey doesn't often pick-up on The rest of the family members, especially not me, but he never refused your call before Faunus!"

"I do not understand either!" Faunus replied.

"Wait, I got his number yesterday when I showed him my car! I'll try calling him! maybe that'll get to him!" Jade said and called Grey herself.

Luckily for her, this time the call connected, so she quickly put it on speaker, but she also quickly regretted it.

Fernando: STOP CALLING FAUNUS! GREY'S ALIVE!

Jade: EW FREDDIE! The hell are you doing with Grey's Phone?!

Fernando: WTF?! JADE?! wait, this isn't Faunus's number?! You have Grey's number now?! since when?!

Jade: Yeah, since yesterday...Also I'm calling from mine Since Grey didn't pick-up on Fau.

Anyways, Grey's 'With' you then?

Fernando: Ummm, 'Under' me would be more...correct...but yeah...

-Jade's eyes widened, she could now hear Grey's embarrassed voice as he tried to scold Fernando for saying that he was 'Under' him.

-"Oh my god?!" Faunus said feeling embarrassed himself, "And here I thought Grey was a virgin!

Well, I'm glad his introverted ass can get some action, but there was no need to scare us like that! tell him to at least send a text next time!" Henrietta commented.

Fernando: is that Henrietta?!...Jade, Please tell me you didn't put us on speaker.

Jade: I did...Uh Faunus is next to me too.

So...you're like both okay? where are you anyways?

Fernando: *Sighing* At Faunus's house actually...I got us inside, sorry about that Faunus.

- "I hope they are not my bedroom!" Faunus whispered.

Fernando: I heard that and we are in your guest bedroom, so you can breath.

Anyways, why are you calling non-stop?!

Jade: Long story short, we thought you guys went missing or something.

Fernando: Oh i guess that was my fault, I stayed in my room since I was angry, and then I thought to myself that maybe I should go talk to Faunus and see what's the matter with him.

Faunus: You went To check on me?

Fernando: I did, but when I went outside, I found Grey sulking about Jasper, as he was making his way back to Ned's place.

And since neither of us were in the mood for lunch, we just went to your house.

Jade: So not being in the mood for one thing, made you in the mood for another?

Fernando: it's not my fault after Thorn and Garrick, I never thought I'll find another good Alpha and you know what I mean by Good.

Faunus: Please stop talking about sex! That Alpha is my cousin!

Fernando: Chillax! He's adopted, and so are you!

Henrietta: I'll let you know that I'm actually very happy with the facts that you are doing whatever you're doing with Grey, he needs to relax too.

But like I said, next time you take him for a joyride, let us know cause you know that boy is sick and he might need our help!

Btw Fernando, can you pass the phone to Grey?

- Horrified, "What the hell is wrong with you, you pervert?!" Faunus Whisper-asked Henrietta, "Henrietta had three kids with different mothers, you should at least expect her to be freaky, Fau." Jade replied making Henrietta snicker.

Fernando: Though i still don't really like you Henrietta, I admire your courage...Grey say something so they know you're alive and I didn't kill you!

Faunus: No please!

Grey: Umm *Panting* I'm alive... everyone...don't worry...I'm...very much alive...

Jade: Wow...Freddie did a number on you!

Grey: Do you...want us to...go back to...the house now?

Henrietta: Once you finish your horse ride, get back because we're kinda dealing with a weird situation here.

Faunus: For the records, we will talk about this 'thing' happening between you two.

Fernando: God damnit Fau! You're an adult, I am an adult and so is Grey! we're all Goddamn adults! we can fuck whomever we want, with consent of course.

I've learned my lesson I can assure you, that whatever we're doing, Grey wanted it too.

Grey: he's right...I asked for...this actually...

Faunus: I do not care whose idea it was, we are going to talk about this!

Grey: you know what!...I don't care...what you think...and I will...not talk about...this with you...Faunus!

Faunus: What did you just say?!

- "Oh what hell?" Henrietta said, "I can sense an argument coming." Jade replied.

Fernando: Grey? what's gotten into you?

Grey: what's gotten into...me... is some common...sense!

I've been running...after you Faunus...for years but...you never gave...me the slightest...chance...and it's not...just because Leonard...was involved too.

You always pitted...me and treated...me like I...was about to...fall and break...The moment you...touch me.

And guess what?!...Fernando never treated...me that way!...if anything he...made me feel...more confident about...myself.

So i won't...apologize for sleeping...with him and...behind your back!...you have your...own mate so...focus on Jasper...AND...leave me be!

Faunus: I am not angry at you for wanting to have sex Grey! I am just worried about you because you always tell me what goes on with your life, and I do not want you to take it the wrong way, but you can be easily taken advantage of!

See what happened with your brother? we do not even know what happened exactly!

Like how the hell you were taken miles away from home?! I am just worried about you and your safety, and I did not like it one bit that you disappeared without telling anyone.

I am sorry if I sounded angry, but you did not pick-up the phone! I was worried you got sicker or something!

Fernando: Sorry to butt in, but since the big reveal was my fault, I'm sorry you have to find out about our thing this way Faunus...and yes it has been going on for a while enough to call it our 'thing'.

Nevertheless, I promise you I haven't been hurting Grey cuz, I know you're kinda sensitive about me, so I swear on whatever you want me to swear, the kid is safe.

And to make it up to you, I will make sure he's always safe when we're together no matter what...

Faunus: You know something Freddie...you were not there inside the house when I had a fight with Lady Orange.

She was viciously attacking your character, and I may or may not have said some things to her about you in your defense at the spur of the moment, and because of that...Jasper advised me to tell you about it.

I do not believe the phone is the best way to say this to you, but I just wanted you to know that I might have become less sensitive of you lately, without even realizing it.

I believe now that you are trying to change for the better, and you have my full support on that, brother.

I am sorry that I never gave you the benefit of doubt again, after what happened in our first life together, I should have tried to stop you and guide you like Ned is trying to do, but instead I turned my back on you when I was the only person supposedly left in your side...I am really sorry.

-Hearing that, both Jade and Henrietta smiled at each other.

Fernando: You're not dying are you? why are you being suddenly nice?

Faunus: I am not dying you idiot! I am being serious! I just told you that I trust That I believe you can change and the first thing that you think about is me dying?! you make it sound like I was horrible to you for no reason!

Fernando: On occasions you were so horrible, remember that time when you threatened me with a gun to my face?

Faunus: UGh! it is my fault for trying to be nice!

Fernando: *Laughing* haha I was just joking! Thank you brother, I really appreciate your words, I just hope that I never get to disappoint you again.

And you were right to not give me the benefit of a doubt again, I mean Jesus Christ I accidentally killed you the first time! I don't think anybody besides Ned is crazy enough to guide me the way he's doing.

But thanks anyways, for standing-up for me.

Faunus: You are welcome, Now please finish what you are doing, and bring Grey here.

Fernando: Aye Aye captain!

Faunus: Tch! Dumbass! *Chuckles*

*Beeb*

As Faunus hanged the phone, he smiled a little to himself.

"I guess we can stop worrying about those two, since we found Grey maybe we should go tell the others that Fernando is accounted for as well?" Henrietta suggested.

"Yeah right, my brother went to look for him with Yurei and Tacito...I wonder where they are?" Jade questioned.

"Only one way to find out." Faunus replied before he started to walk away.
