Tell me why...

The door to his bedroom opened with a creak making him open his eyes.

A small figure stepped inside and jumped in bed.

"Jackie! You're back?" The figure asked.

It was his brother Charlie. Charlie was born premature so his body development is a lot slower than his age mates, he's now 16 and still behaves like a 10 year old, something Jackson wishes doesn't stop because Charlie will always be his baby brother.

"Yeah, i came back for you" he says making Charlie giggle.

Jackson sits up on the bed and switches on the nightstand lamp, he gasps seeing a bruise on Charlie's face.

"Who did that?"

"Oh this?....Mr. Wesley did it, he said it was his kink?" Charlie says, Jackson shivers in disgust as he wondered what disgusting things his brother has to do in his place.

It was true that they lived in a brothel. After their parents divorced, Jackson and Charlie had to live with their father because their mother had to move back to her home country.

Things were good after the divorce, then after a month, their father changed, he started to drink, eventually he lost his job and when Jackson came out that he was gay, the man started to sell his son as a prostitute for money. This has been going on for three years now.

And when Jackson told his father that he will he gone for the summer, the old man agreed to stop operating until he came back but that didn't happen. Charlie was used in place of Jackson and that makes Jackson very upset with himself, he blames himself.

"Charlie, I'm so sorry"

"It's okay...they didn't do anything to me...just you know...the handiwork"

"Next time call me okay?"

"Okay"

He sighed and hugged his brother, the thought of having a man touch his brother made him sick to the stomach.

"I think it's time we left" she said. Jeremy and Vanessa look at her.

"Why? Summer vacay just started" Vanessa asks.

"And look how it turned out, Ian left because of me, I'm all alone here while you two kiss and cuddle all day, let's call it a day and head back home"

"Fine with me" Jeremy says, the further away from Alice the better it was for him.

"Okay fine" Vanessa agrees in defeat, this summer vacation was a bust.

"Ian honey, dinner is served"

"Okay mom"

He put his clothes in the laundry basket and went downstairs to have dinner, fluffy was following silently behind him.

"Where's dad?" He asked as he sat down. His mother chuckles.

"He went out with his friends, i think he's cheating on me" she teases. Ian shakes his head laughing.

"No wonder you're divorced"

"Touché"

They both laugh and continue eating their dinner. Whilst eating, Ian can't stop thinking about Jackson, he had left so suddenly that he feels like Jackson will be angry at him and to make matters worse, he doesn't have his number.

"Penny for your thoughts?"

"Just thinking about Jackson, i left without saying goodbye"

"Why don't you check his social media?"

Ian face palms, he totally forgotten about that.

"This is why i need brain camp"

"What the hell is a brain camp? Ian, stop watching too much tv and eat your dinner"

They laugh again. Ian was feeling better now that he knew how to communicate with Jackson, maybe he'll stalk him before he sends him a message.

"Why are you blushing? Are you having dirty thoughts during dinner?"

"Mom, things like this can't be shared"

"Oh boy"

────「」────

His phone vibrated as a message notification popped up, it was from Ian, he rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Ian_fluffy: hey, sorry for leaving suddenly, something came up.

Jackson#Jk: it's okay, i came back home as well, my brother was sick.

Ian_fluffy: oh no :( hope he gets better

Jackson#Jk: thanks, hope you're doing good?

Ian_fluffy: I'm good....do you want to hang out tomorrow?

He chuckles, little Ian was getting attached.

Jackson#Jk: sure, tell me where and when tomorrow.

Ian_fluffy: yay ^_^ can't wait, goodnyt Jackie

His heart raced seeing that nickname, it was the same thing Charlie called him.

Jackson#Jk: goodnyt Ian

────「」────

He covered his face with a pillow and screamed, Jackson had just sent him a heart emoji, he was over the moon.

After he had calmed down, this phone vibrated again, this time it was an Instagram message from Ethan.

EthanET: don't trust Jackson he's using you

His eyebrows furrowed as he read this, why was Ethan so determined to ruin his happy moments with Jackson.

Ian_fluffy: why do you care? Do you like me? Even if you did you won't have a chance, you're not my type anyways. >:(

He silenced his phone and switched off the nightstand lamp and got under the blankets, if Ethan was going to ruin his relationship with Jackson then Ian vows to do the same to him. And eye for an eye he says to himself.

────「」────

Ian_fluffy: why do you care? Do you like me? Even if you did you won't have a chance, you're not my type anyways.

His heart ached after reading that, imagine having a crush on someone, then you try to help them out of a dangerous situation only for them to use words to stab you straight in the heart.

"No matter how many times you push me away Ian, I'll expose Jackson for you to see his true colors and if you hate me at the end then so be it" he says quietly.

He laid in bed and scrolled through the pictures they took at the beach, the way Ian smiled looking at the camera made his heart flutter.

"Will you still smile like this when you're with me?"

────「」────

"I'm home!" She called out, an elderly man came from the kitchen wearing a suit. It was Bernard, the family's butler.

"Welcome back Ms. May i take your bags?" He asks. Alice nods and wheeled the bag to him.

"Are my parents home?"

"Unfortunately no, they went out for a vacation at the Himalayas"

"Okay, thank you"

"No problem ms. "

She walked up to her room, the staircase walls decorated by their family potraits, Alice smiled seeing the one where she was wearing a bright pink dress.

She opened the door to her large bedroom and jumped in bed. She let out a large sigh.

"Bernard, do you think I've changed?" She asks. The old man smiles.

"Of course you have ms. You have changed alot"

She sighs.

"Thank you Bernard"

"Ring me up when you need anything"

She nods and closes her eyes. After the door closed with a click, she unzipped her dress and took out her bra, the silicone breats that were stuck to her chest dropped to the floor. She sat infront of her vanity desk and wiped off her makeup, if you looked closely, you could see some facial hair. She went to the bathroom and put on her oversized tshirt, and laid in bed and sighed.

"Face it Alice, no one will ever like a freak like you"

The next morning, Ian was waiting in a cafe for Jackon, he had decided to spend the day with Jackson so that they could catch up.

The door to the cafe opened with a bell jingle and Ian smiled seeing Jackson come in, he was wearing jeans and a white tank top, it was simple yet Ian found it very attractive.

"Hey there stranger" Jackson said smiling. Ian smiles.

"Hey, thanks for meeting me"

"Anything for you"

He blushes and takes a sip of his ice tea.

"So Ethan reached out to me" he started, Jackson became tense after hearing that. Did Ethan expose him? What will happen now?

"And what did he say?" He asks. Ian sighs.

"He said to stay away from you"

"Oh..."

Ian looks Jackson in the eyes.

"Tell me why he said that"
