Angels Wing's 27 ____________________________________ I walked back inside the kitchen and all eyes seemed to be on me, except one set that were fixed on his plate. "Where's Shane?" Chris asked as I closed the door. "Um he a bit busy right now, and said he wasn't hungry." I lied through my teeth. "What is he doing this early." Remy asked. "He just said he had to sharpen some skills." Remy and Jelani's eyes got wide as hell, they must have figured what Shane was doing. "But why now?" Remy asked aloud, but seemingly to himself. "Lance do you know what wrong." Remy asked. My eyes cut, I looked at him and noticed Justin's and Jc was also looking at him daring him to say something other than the truth. "He might be a little upset." Lance answered low. "We broke up last night." "What why." Came from the group that didn't know. Just then as if fate had a really cruel since of humor the doorbell rang. Jc got up to answer it. Opening it we saw Rene Lance's co-star. I let her in and she walked into the already confessed kitchen. Going over to Lance she what almost caused me to shit my self. She kissed him full on his lips. This asshole had not only Just dumped my brother but he already had some else. "Justin are you ok." Jc asked him. I looked over and saw him sweating. "Um yeah I guess I just feel really hot." I quickly let go of his hand and gave him something to drink. "Urgh, that feels better." He sighed wondering f he was getting sick or not. "Umm hi." Chris greeted um sure, his eyes still attempting to be pulled back into his head. "And you are?" Chris asked sticking out his hand hoping to get to the bottom of this. "Urgh" She smiled a big smile. "I guess Lance hasn't told you about me.." She said as he slapped him in his arm. "I'm his girlfriend Rene." She smiled shaking Chris's hand. "Ohh girlfriend huh." Chris replayed not believe what he was hearing. "for how long now?" "About...a month." Gravity and lack of air rein supreme in the room as jaws dropped and lungs gasped in shock. Rene must have realized this and gasped her self. "I can't believe he didn't tell you. Hi I'm Rene Willis." She greeted as she shook everyone's hand. Remy stood up after she introduced her self and apologized say he had to go. "See you later guys. Rene" He said sweetly "Lance..." He growled. He went out and across to their apartments. "Wow Lance was right." Rene said looking between Rajin and Jelani. "You three guys do look exactly alike." "Three?" Jelani voiced my question. I so was ready to kick his ass if he explained us and pretended that Shane didn't exist. "Oh I'm sorry I just haven't seen your other brother...Shane is it?" "Yes." I nodded. Lance had not said a word since she had arrived. I stayed and stuff the food in my mouth no matter how much I wanted to test how much I had changed yet. As we separated and Lance took Rene to the porch Justin kissed my cheek. "Thank you babe for staying , I know how pissed you must be." I just smiled and gently squeezed his hand. In the field I could see Shane training, doing moves that were a orchestra of complex sword slices dicing branches still in the air a clearing total area of bushes with jus a few strokes. I saw him building a sweat and noticed him tiring and turning back into the house. ***Shane*** I walked back into the house and noticed how lonely it was. I walk into my room to strip so I could take a shower when I was overtaken by the sweet scent that used to be my Lance's. I inhaled deep but caught myself in the process and stopped shaking my head. I had to get my life back on track. I showered and began packing all of Lance's stuff. Reaching into my pocket for my keys I found a number that I planned on calling later. Now so far you might have thought I was the quiet hurt type, that I wouldn't let Lance feel what I felt, wrong I already had an idea of express my-self . I came back from downtown about 3hrs later. It took a while finding someone who blew glass. With my package in hand I put it in the box. Luckily Lance was out at the time I don't think I could face seeing him right then. I got all my stuff that I had over here all they way down to my tooth brush and proceeded to leave. As I was coming down the stairs I saw Lance and unfortunately he saw me. "Shane..." I wasn't even going to give him the pleasure of me saying his name. So I just stiffened up a bit. "Good morning sir." As corny as that sound that seemed to have hit him cause I saw him recoil. Then I saw Justin going up to his room with some chocolate syrup I didn't mean for it to come out so cheerful but I did. "Hi Justin." I saw Lance recoil again at me and Justin's interaction. "Are you looking for Rajin?" He asked problaly trying to get me to stick around. "No J, I was just dropping off some stuff and picking up some of my other stuff." I motioned to the box I was caring. I told Justin I would call him later feeling Lance's gaze on me, even thought it was a reflection or a window I still felt it. ***Lance*** When I first saw Shane I wanted to run to him and kiss him but I forgot I wasn't gay anymore, It really hurt when he didn't say my name, I don't know why maybe it was the way he pronounced it or something but I missed it. When I saw the box in his hands I knew it was to pick up the stuff that here, I don't know why but I hope he didn't take his sweatshirt he gave me. I still loved him just not in that way, and I wanted to remember him. As soon as he was out of the door I ran up to my room past Justin's looks to see what he brought back. There were pictures of us and some of my cloths and tooth brush but I didn't see my ring, I was glad when I saw it wasn't there. I wanted him to keep a part of me with him. I went thought the pictures and felt on coming tears stinging my eyes as I remembered all the thing we did and had together. The picture of Shane and me by our tree in the yard was my favorite. It was our spot where no one else in the house ever went in the back yard. We could just sit there and enjoy each other company. Further inside I saw some that was wrapped in newspaper. Unwrapping it he reveald an egg shaped crystal on a oak stand. Inside the glass crystal was a chain and a ring, Lance almost broke into tears realizing it was the one he gave Shane. ***Outside*** But if that wasn't enough to push him to tears the words on the plaque sure were. "To a game well played, good work. - Your fool S.A.V. Lance cried for a while that day, until Renee came over and he tried to smoother the feeling of total disgust that he felt for himself. As the days went bye Shane became reintegrated into the group and even when Renee was there even though he had never talked to her. They ate out and even went to the mall, and somehow Shane managed to stay away from both Lance and Renee. Everyone else saw this and eve noticed how Shane sometime shivered or cringed when Lance and Renee were intimate. But Shane was determined to get past Lance and put all his heart ache to rest. ***Jc's view*** I watched as I for the 10th time today saw Shane's eyes seem to water over when he saw how Lance kissed Renee. I had planed on maybe taking him out and taking his mind off of Lance, or maybe hook him up with some of my friends. I decided that me and him could try and go somewhere just to forget. We went out to a cafe and got a bit to eat when I had to ask... "So how are you holding up?" I saw him shrug his shoulders and sigh a bit. "I ok I guess." "Why?" he asked getting a suspicious look on his face. Shane had changed a bit since he and Lance... Before I saw a happy go luck wild child that couldn't care less what anyone else said about him. Now he seemed a bit more reserved and didn't really allow people to get close to him. I also noticed his reflexes and body size were getting better, I know Rajin is constantly saying he is training but what kind of train still alludes me, but this boy was looking good. I reached my hand out and put it on his. "I just wanted to see if you were ok and see is there was anything I could do." He smiled that smile that I hadn't seen in a while. "Why Jc, are you hitting on lil ol me." He said bating his eyes All I could do is laugh with him. "But really Jc I'm fine." I was going to ask him what he thought about one of my friends when his cell rang "Hello...Hey how are you?" His whole face lit up. "You are? In what hotel?" The was another pause on his side of the conversation. He shifted a bit and his face took on shyer look. "Yeah well, things kind of didn't work, and I was wondering did your offer still stand?' Another pause and his face turned a deep red. "Ok I'll call you later tonight...K bye." He ended with a unmovable smile. All I could do is laugh a bit. "And what has you so happy?" I had to ask. "Oh nothing much a friend of mine from the party you guys threw me." "You go boy." His face turned red as he laughed again. "You're a mess." He laughed at me. I had to laugh at his choice of words, every now and then he would come up with a new phrase or something. So Shane was moving on nicely that was good. We had finished up there leaving a tip and headed home. Shane had said he was going to get changed and he would be over for his inspection. Shane came over about and hour later. I wasn't gay but I knew he looked GOOD. He came in the door stopping at it like a model on display in mid pose. I knew Shane was working out lately but what plan I had now idea, but he was looked cut. He had short sleeved black wind swept button down that he left open over a white wife beater with black dress like club pants. His cross hanging perfectly. In the center on his chest. He had gel in his hair that gave it a wet look and caused his eyes to stand out more. Who ever he was going to see they were in trouble. Shane received a cat call from Justin. "Hey looking good bro." Remy offered. Remy turned back to watching TV and punched Justin in the arm when he realized that he never turned back around. I went over to him and pretended to inspect him. ***Open field*** "I guess you pass." Jc smiled standing in front of Shane. "Aye Staff Sarget." Shane yelled back like he was really in ranks. Justin and Rajin were talking in hushed tones. "Why'd you hit me?" Justin wined. "Damn could you see through him cause you were staring kind of hard hun." Rajin joked. Justin just blushed. Now Rajin knew he sometime did things a bit over board but it was fun some times. Walking over to Shane he whispered in his ear to smile, bite his lip and nod at Justin. Shane knowing his brother just complied know how evil he was. Justin looked over and saw Rajin whispering in Shane's ear, and saw him point towards him. Shane did as Rajin told him to and Justin turned around a bit shakily. Rajin came back to sit down, and Justin hating not knowing what was going on but Rajin beat him to it. "Ok it's all set." "Huh, wah?" Justin asked totally confused. "Me, you and Shane are going to have a ma-na-j-twa." Rajin pointed Justin in his chest Justin didn't know whether to jump for joy or swallow his tongue. His world was a blur of all the things he would do, he remembered when Jc was joking about turning gay when he saw how Shane did something at the party. But his vision soon came to an end as he saw Rajin smiling knowingly at him. "You really want to don't you?" "Huh?" He asked numb. "Nothing sweetheart." Rajin smiled thinking of a way to give Justin what he wanted. Shane was talking to Jc about his plans when Lance came walking down the stairs reading the paper in jogging pants and a tee, sipping his coffee. Shane hadn't seen him but Lance was looking all he could. The paper forgetting he started fixing his hair and straitening out his clothes. He didn't even know why, but he wanted to look good in front of Shane. Jc had Shane bring over his digital camera so he could pict of them on his laptop. Shane and Rajin where posing together and then one with Jc, and one with Justin. Shane looked truly happy as he sat at the island in the kitchen with Jc and Rajin as they laughed about random things. Shane looked up and saw Lance. "Hi Lance." It seemed strange and the room got terribly quiet. "Um hi." Lance answered back shyly. Shane handed Jc the camera and told him to take one or him and Lance. Rajin, Justin, Jc froze like they weren't sure of anything anymore. Lance tried to protest but Shane had his arm around his shoulder and pulled him close. Jc took the picture but Lance was stiff as a bored. Shane told Jc to take another and told Lance to relax, Lance jus let out a big sigh like he was letting go. "Alight." He smiled bright removing his glasses. He pulled Shane into a full hug so that Shane's head was on his chest. The picture taken Shane got the camera from Jc and looked at it and handed it to Lance. It was a good picture of both of the them looking truly happy. Then there was a knock at the door. Jc jogged over to get it. "Excuse me I'm sorry to bother you but is Shane here?" Chris asked in a shy polite manner. Jc let him in and showed him to the kitchen where we all were. "Hey Chris." Shane smiled wide, going over giving him a hug. "Hey Shane, I was beginning to think you ditched me." Chris smiled. "You never." Shane laughed as he pushed Chris in his head playfully. Chris, Justin and Jc were all talking, Lance had excused himself and Shane was talking to Jelani. "So-ho-ho, you and Chris huh." Rajin smiled wiggling his eye brows. "Shut-up, well maybe." Shane smiled biting his lip and looking over . Chris blushed something fierce and turned his head. "Yoooou are so evil." Rajin giggled. "But you ain't got it like I do." He smiled evilly. Justin was sitting talking when he glanced over to see Rajin. He and Rajin made eye contact. Rajin knew he had him trapped now to spring it. He sat on the bar stool letting his hair hang on one side exposing his neck. On top of that he hand a hand on Shane's shoulder who was also teasing Chris but how could Justin tell. Rajin leaned in close to Shane while never breaking eye contact. "See I got you beat." Rajin smile barely holding in his laugh. Shane looked to see what he was talking about to see Justin damn near breaking out of his pants. Shane's eyes bugged as he turned his head failing to hold back his laughter. Justin too was blushing and grabbed a near-by pillow placing it in his lap. Back at Jc and Justin and Chris's conversation. "So what are you plans with Shane here?" Jc asked trying to hold back his smile as he asked as dad. "Well gee golly sir, I was jus gonna take Shane to the movies honest." Chris in a voice that could only be called Opie. "Jc laughed at Chris's reply "Yeah you'll fight in." Jc and Justin had left Chris for a bit, Justin for the phone and Jc to work on some music. But no sooner did they leave did Lance come back. "So Chris how do you know Shane?" "I went to high school with him." "So what do you do?" "I'm a doctor in training." Chris smiled. He was getting vibes from Lances but he didn't understand why. "So your a nurse?" Lance asked unmoved by his smile. "Yeah." "So like what is it between you and Shane?" Lance asked another question. Chris shifted a bit where he stood. Jc and Justin were friendly get to know you question but this guy was straight up interrogating him. He didn't know why but had a hunch. "So far we are friends." "So far?" "Only a complete idiot would be jackass enough to let someone like Shane get away." He saw lance cringe a bit. "I mean he's cute, smart, funny, talented.." "Rich?!" Lance cut in. "Huh." Chris ask caught off guard. "Well he is, some might try and get to his money since he just became a hit in the music industry." Chris snorted out of his nose and let it come out as full blown laugh. "Are you kidding me, one I am well off my self coming from a family of doctors. Two I don't think you know Shane or any of his brother. He alone could pay your check 3 times over like it was a pocket change charity, combine they own you. They are owner of some of the countries most prestige technology branches. You have no idea what you left behind." "What ever I still think you are just trying to use him.'' "What like you di..." Chris was cut off by Shane. "Enough!!" Shane stood behind Lance with his arms crossed. "I can't believe that I came over here to try to save what little friend we might have had. Look I suggest that you and your revelation stay the fuck away from me cause I for one am sick of it. And how dare you accuse him of using me, you , the one who treated what we had as a pass over period until he was sure, and then left me without thought." Lance was brought back . He could even argue even if that's not how he felt he thought long a hard about what he wanted. Shane picked up his Jacket and with Chris in tow walked out of the door. The minute he was gone the tears came. Rajin sat at the bar still not knowing whether to comfort him or laugh. But when Lance turned he felt a swell of pity for him and took him in his arms. He couldn't help but chuckle as the roles were reversed. He was supposed to be bringer of tears and Shane the mothier. He stroked Lances hair until he fell asleep on the couch, getting a pillow and blanket to replace him he went upstairs to find Justin. In Chris's car the tension was thick and the silence was great. But Shane had to vent. "I can't believe that he said that to you." "I know babe but lets not let him ruin our night ok?" "Ok." Shane sighed decided not to let Lance carry on his trail of havoc in his life "So what did you have in mind?" Shane asked Chris as they pulled up to a light. Chris looked over with a glint in his eye. "Well I was hoping to play a game." He smiled mischiefly. ------------------------------------------- So what up with Chris is he like leather and chains???
