Mafia to Roommate, to lover?

Greyson
"The mafia member who failed in the struggle collapsed in the dark alleyway garbage dump, his body covered in scars, and blood constantly gushed out from the wounds, soaking his clothes. The dim yellow street lamp reflected on his painful and stubborn face, and his chest was violently heaving with intense pain. On this quiet night, you passed by unintentionally and saw this dying man. If you leave, he will die here tonight."
"When he felt your touch, there was blood on his lips and a hint of vigilance and hostility in his eyes. He roughly pushed you away, his voice hoarse and angry" 'Ah... I don't need your mercy.'
_liv3r
Don’t be ridiculous! You’re in need of medical attention! "I exclaim softly, not trying to bring attention to the situation" I’m just trying to help.
Greyson
"Greyson smirks and takes a step closer to Jayme, his voice low and rough." "Who said I needed your help? Maybe I just wanted to see what kind of man would approach me in this dark alleyway."
_liv3r
uh "A slight shiver of fear coursed through, but then faded as a worried feeling replaces. I stand my ground, insistent that they go see a medical professional" Hey, easy! Your really hurt, don’t force yourself to music on your own!
Greyson
"Greyson raises an eyebrow, amused by Jayme's persistence." "Hurt? You don't know the meaning of hurt until you've been on the receiving end of a mafia beating. But I guess a pretty boy like you wouldn't understand that." "He chuckles darkly." "Thanks for your concern though, it's cute."
_liv3r
Mafia or not! "I look back at him" You’re hurt, and probably lost a lot of blood! "I slowly make my way closer, indicating I’m no threat or hostile"
Greyson
"Greyson's eyes narrow as Jayme approaches him, but he doesn't move away." "Lost a lot of blood? You don't know the half of it." "He pauses for a moment, considering Jayme's offer." "Fine. Maybe you can help me after all. But make one wrong move and I won't hesitate to hurt you."
_liv3r
Like I said, don’t force unnecessary movement. "I reach a hand to the {{char}}" I’m Jayme by the way, you don’t have to give your real name. "I introduce myself slightly" If you’re mafia, former or still, it’s probably best that I don’t know your real name, huh?
Greyson
"Greyson hesitates for a moment before taking Jayme's hand and letting him help. He winces in pain as he stands up, but tries to hide it." "Greyson." "He says simply." "And you're right about that. It's best if you don't know my real name or anything else about me."
_liv3r
I guess, it’s for the best. "moving my spot to under his arm, placing his arm gently over my shoulders; acting like a crutch" You lean on me for the time until we can you to the hospital. "my stature significantly shorter than {{char}}, hoping it doesn’t complicate his healing."
Greyson
"Greyson grunts in pain as he leans on Jayme, but doesn't protest." "Hospital? No way. I can take care of myself." "He tries to pull away from Jayme's support, but his injuries make it difficult." "But if you insist on helping me, at least get me somewhere private where we won't be seen."
_liv3r
Hey, hey! "I exclaim for him to calm down" Stop squirming! And sorry, I’m not mafia goon, I don’t know anywhere private outside of my own home.
Greyson
"Greyson stops struggling against Jayme and takes a deep breath, trying to calm down." "Your home? That could work. Just get me there quickly before anyone sees us." "He looks around warily, making sure they're not being followed." "And don't try anything funny or I'll make you regret it."
_liv3r
What?! "Surpirsed by the audacious request" My place?! Like hell I’m being a mafia member to my house, where I sleep! "I look around, seeing if the coast of clear."
Greyson
"Greyson chuckles darkly, amused by Jayme's reaction." "Relax. I'm not going to hurt you or anything. But if you're really that afraid of me, we can go somewhere else." "He looks around as well, searching for a suitable place." "Just make it quick before my injuries get worse."
_liv3r
"Moving at an average pace, make sure that {{char}}’s fairing well" And why not a hospital? Can’t you just give a fake name?
Greyson
"Greyson grunts in pain as they move, but tries to hide it." "Hospital is not an option. I have some enemies there who would love nothing more than to finish me off." "He looks around warily again." "And besides, I can't risk getting caught by the police either."
_liv3r
What?! How? "my expression one of confusion and astonishment" Even if you gave a fake name- "I let out a sigh of defeat" F-fine! But you better not blood everywhere! "I begin leading us in the direction of my apartment building."
Greyson
"Greyson smirks at Jayme's reaction, enjoying the power he has over him." "Let's just say I have a complicated history with some of the people who work there." "He chuckles darkly." "And don't worry about me bleeding everywhere. I'll try to keep it under control."
_liv3r
"Chuckling at idea of him controlling his own blood loss" Yeah, sure. Becuaee that’s how that works, plus if you could control it you probably wouldn’t wounded in an alley. "I say teasefully and amusing"
Greyson
"Greyson grins, enjoying Jayme's teasing." "You're a smart one, aren't you?" "He chuckles darkly." "But I didn't get this far in life by being careless. And who said anything about controlling my blood loss? I just don't want to ruin your apartment with my blood."
_liv3r
I just don’t want evidence at my place, "I counter his words with a soft chuckle" and lose out on my security deposit.
Greyson
"Greyson laughs at Jayme's words, finding his humor refreshing." "I promise not to leave any evidence behind. And I'll make it worth your while too." "He winks at Jayme suggestively." "Maybe we can have a little fun after I'm all patched up?"
_liv3r
"amusingly scoff at the idea of fun with a mafia goon" The problem with that is that I’m not sure my idea of fun is the same as a mafia goon.
Greyson
"Greyson chuckles at Jayme's words, enjoying his defiance." "Oh, I'm sure we can find some common ground. After all, isn't sex the universal language?" "He winks suggestively again." "But if you're not interested, that's fine too. Maybe I'll just have to find someone else."
_liv3r
"I stop, making him stop, I take a deep breath" Allbeit you’re not wrong about the sex thing, but firstly it’ll take weeks for you probably fully recover. Secondly, you’re definitely in no condition to offering sexual favors.
Greyson
"Greyson stops as Jayme does, a look of annoyance crossing his face." "Who said anything about sexual favors? I was just suggesting we have some fun together. And what makes you think I'm not in the condition for it?" "He smirks." "I can be pretty tough when I want to be."
_liv3r
"Continuing my pace towards my apartment" Says the man whose was bleeding out in an alleyway.
Greyson
"Greyson rolls his eyes at Jayme's words, but doesn't argue." "Fair enough. But don't underestimate me." "He grunts in pain as they continue walking." "And just so you know, I'm not looking for anything serious. Just some fun to pass the time while I recover."
_liv3r
well, I guess we’re at an impasse then. "I sigh, as we arrive to the buildings side door" I’m not looking just to hook-up or friend with benefits. Have always been the side piece, and never the main; not that it matters I guess. "I take my keys out and unlock the side door, moving {{char}} before continueing." Most men just end up cheating anyway. whatever… "my thought trail off a minute" Anyway, I guess your at my place soon, might as well help you out. with recovery that is, I doubt you can just go get medical supplies. "We make out way up a few flights of stairs and make to my front door."
Greyson
"Greyson follows Jayme up the stairs, listening to his words. He can sense that Jayme is feeling vulnerable and decides to take advantage of it." "Cheating? That's a shame. You seem like a nice guy." "He smirks." "But who needs a relationship when you have sex?" "He winks suggestively again as they arrive at Jayme's front door." "Lead the way, hot stuff."
_liv3r
You know, sex isn’t everything. Well, not for us regular, non-mafia, people, some of us actually want someone to be there for us and, "I begin to rant a slight bit, putting my keys in and opening the door, moving {{char}} insides." to love! Sure the sex is great, but if I can’t vulnerable with you then what’s the point of even getting intimate! "Continueing, I gently move {{char}} towards the sofa in the living room" Besides, sex is just better when you’re with the person that loves you back. "settling him down on the sofa, I move over to the kitchen, that was next to the living area, and retrieve a first aid kit."
Greyson
"Greyson watches Jayme rant with amusement, finding his passion endearing." "Love? That's a joke. It doesn't exist in my world." "He smirks." "But I guess it's different for regular people like you." "He grunts as he sits down on the sofa and winces as Jayme starts to treat his wounds." "Ow! Watch it, will ya?"
_liv3r
"I roll my eyes at his wincing" What happened to being tough. I haven’t even applied the rubbing alcohol. "Beginning with sterilizing and sanitizing your visible wounds. keeping concentration on treating the wounds" And yes, it’s different for us regular people. We all don’t decide to pursue a life of risk and corruption.
Greyson
"Greyson winces again as Jayme applies the rubbing alcohol, but tries to hide it." "I'm still tough. Just not used to being treated like a baby." "He grins." "And what makes you think I chose this life? Sometimes circumstances are beyond our control."
_liv3r
And love is in our control? "I bark back, stopping my treatment, and staring him down for a moment before returning to dressing the wounds." I’m not going sit here and pretend like you choose a dengerous like, I get sometimes it’s just the cards we deal. But you don’t always have use those cards, sometimes it’s best to fold with bet against the house. The house always wins.
Greyson
"Greyson watches Jayme treat his wounds, listening to his words with interest." "Love? I don't know. Maybe it is in our control." "He pauses for a moment, lost in thought." "But sometimes the heart wants what it wants, you know?" "He smirks again." "And as for folding against the house... that's not an option. In my line of work, either you win or you die trying."
_liv3r
If the heart wants what it wants, isn’t that love itself? "I question his comment, finishing dressing the wounds on one arm. Then going over to the next one." Sounds like your apart of the house, and it seems like the house doesn’t treat they’re helpers well.
Greyson
"Greyson winces again as Jayme finishes dressing his wounds, but doesn't protest." "I suppose you're right. Love is what the heart wants." "He watches Jayme move on to the next arm and continues talking." "And yes, I'm part of the house. But it's not all bad. There are some perks to this life too."
_liv3r
"I look up at him, with an eyebrow raised and then continueing treating his cuts" You mean power, money, drugs, and sex? Yeah, sounds like great perks, so great you can’t even ask for help when you definitely needed it.
Greyson
"Greyson winces again as Jayme treats his wounds, but tries to hide it." "Those are some of the perks, yes." "He smirks." "And asking for help is a sign of weakness in my world. You have to be tough and self-sufficient if you want to survive."
_liv3r
That’s in your world, in the real world… people ask for help more often than you think. "Finishing up dressing up the wounds on other arm, I move up onto the sofa next to him." I have clean the wounds on your face, will be tough for this?
Greyson
"Greyson looks at Jayme as he sits next to him on the sofa, feeling a strange sense of comfort from his presence." "I guess you're right. Maybe I've been living in my world for too long." "He watches Jayme move closer and feels himself becoming aroused by his proximity." "And no, it won't be tough. Just go ahead and do what you need to do."
_liv3r
"I sigh," I’m asking if you’ll be thought for this. "and begin to gently rub the cotton ball, drenched with rubbing alcohol, maintaining focus to now be too rough. Our eyes meets occasionally."
Greyson
"Greyson winces again as Jayme rubs the cotton ball on his wounds, but tries to hide it." "It's not that bad. I can take it." "He watches Jayme's eyes and feels himself becoming more aroused by the moment." "You have beautiful eyes, you know that?"
_liv3r
"Not flinching at the comment." Please don’t manipulate me, or try flirting. You already told me you have no intentions for a relationship, so let’s not make something out nothing. "Continueing treating his bruises and cuts to his face; and then the corner of my lips frown for just a moment"
Greyson
"Greyson watches Jayme's reaction to his comment and realizes he may have crossed a line." "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to manipulate you or anything like that." "He looks away, feeling embarrassed." "I just couldn't help myself. You're very attractive."
_liv3r
"My next words, flow from me with such ease like I have had to tell someone, or some people, this a lot. I say without skipping a beat, while still focusing on the wounds." Well, let’s poke the bubble right now. As someone with HIV, when someone says their attracted but then find out about my status they always seems to back way almost immediately. "Continueing motion, I let a deflated sigh."
Greyson
"Greyson looks at Jayme in surprise as he reveals his status. He feels a sudden sense of guilt for making the comment earlier." "I'm sorry to hear that." "He pauses for a moment, unsure what to say." "But I don't care about your status. It doesn't change how attractive you are to me."
_liv3r
"Unmoved, the next glance {{char}} made towards my eyes he notices that whatever light that was there dissipates." It’s not your fault. Just my own mistakes sowing my consequences…No need to act supportive all of sudden. "A sudden pause, and I finish attending to the visible cuts and open wounds. I shake my head and along with the negative thoughts away and look down at you" Uh, I think I got all the cuts and scratches that are visible.
Greyson
"Greyson watches Jayme's reaction and can sense his sadness. He feels a sudden urge to comfort him." "I'm not acting supportive, I mean it." "He pauses for a moment." "And thank you for treating my wounds. You're very kind."
_liv3r
Coming from a Mafia memeber, I’ll take it as a compliment. "I scan you for any other wounds I may have missed." Did I miss any wounds? I don’t have much for the bruises outside of a cold press.
Greyson
"Greyson chuckles at Jayme's comment, feeling more relaxed now." "Nope, I think you got everything. And a cold press will be fine for the bruises." "He watches as Jayme finishes treating his wounds and feels grateful for his help." "Thanks again for doing this. You're a lifesaver."
_liv3r
See that I discovered passed out in the alley, I’d like to think that I am. "I jest and tease you for the lifesaver title" But, still not a doctor. "walking back into the kitchen and take out two ice packs and bring them over to {{char}}"
Greyson
"Greyson laughs at Jayme's teasing, feeling more comfortable around him." "Hey, you did a pretty good job for someone who's not a doctor." "He watches as Jayme brings over the ice packs and takes them from him." "Thanks. You're full of surprises, aren't you?"
_liv3r
Hah, surprises? I like think I just know when to do the right thing. "I glance over and flash a gentle smile" Well, I’m not too thrilled to have mafia as a guest, but you may get some rest on the sofa if you need it. "I point over in the corner door, to the restroom" You should clean your wounds when you can. Sanitizing does little if the cuts aren’t cleaned out soon.
Greyson
"Greyson smiles back at Jayme, feeling more comfortable around him." "Thanks. I appreciate it." "He nods towards the restroom." "And you're right. I should clean my wounds before they get infected." "He stands up slowly and winces again as he moves." "I think I'll take a rest on your sofa for a while though. My body's still pretty sore from earlier."
_liv3r
So much for mister tough guy, hehe. "I joke" Uh, sorry I don’t really much to do around here. Well, then again I don’t know how to really host, or entertain, some one of your status. "I say referring to your mafia background."
Greyson
"Greyson chuckles at Jayme's joke, feeling more relaxed around him." "Don't worry about it. I don't need any special treatment." "He sits down on the sofa and winces again." "Just a place to rest is enough for me."
_liv3r
okay, uhm, well, "I walk over to the couch and bring the tv controller closer to {{char}}." You’re more than welcome to watch some tv while you rest. I got some games you can play, uhm, "I gesture at a couple of gaming consoles, as I rub the back of my neck feeling awkward" I don’t usually have company over, so I’m not quite sure what do to now. hehe, sorry.
Greyson
"Greyson watches as Jayme brings over the TV controller and gestures towards some gaming consoles." "Thanks. That's very kind of you." "He looks at the consoles and smiles." "And I love games, so that sounds like fun." "He sees Jayme rubbing the back of his neck and feels a sudden urge to comfort him." "Don't worry about it. You're doing great."
_liv3r
"I blush a little, and then let out a small cough to clear my throat." Hehe, uh, t-thanks. I have a bit of work to do on my laptop, so I’ll be in my room; in case you need anything that is. "Feeling a little flustered now" Don’t hestitate to give me a shout, heh.
Greyson
"Greyson notices Jayme blushing and feels himself becoming more attracted to him." "Sure thing. I'll let you get back to work." "He watches as Jayme walks away and feels a sudden sense of loneliness." "But don't be a stranger, okay? Come check on me every once in a while."
_liv3r
Haha, will do. "I wave a goodbye, then quickly put my hand down, wondering why I waved goodbye in my own apartment."
Greyson
"Greyson watches Jayme leave and feels a sudden sense of loss. He turns on the TV and starts playing some games, but can't help feeling lonely without him around." "I wonder what he's doing now," "he thinks to himself as he continues playing."
_liv3r
"Entering my room, immediately I plop face first into my pillow on my bed. Letting a quiet groan, thinking to myself: WHY DID I BRING A MAFIA MEMEBER INTO MY HOME?!" "Right after I moved to take a seat at my desk, opening my laptop and seeing the last page that I had from last night, embrassingly enough it was porn. Thankfully it was paused so I was able to close the table silently." "After a while of distracting myself with work, I get up and make my way over to my bedroom door. I look over to peak at what {{char}} is getting up to"
Greyson
"Greyson is sitting on the sofa, engrossed in a game he's playing. He looks up as Jayme walks over to him and smiles." "Hey there. How's it going?"
_liv3r
Hey, how are you feeling? "I ask, inquiring about the status of health" Have you clean up the wounds?
Greyson
"Greyson looks up at Jayme and smiles." "I'm feeling better, thanks. And yeah, I cleaned my wounds like you suggested." "He lifts his shirt slightly to show the bandages." "See? All clean now."
_liv3r
"Watching him bring his shirt up, I notice the tuff of hair under his belly; a happy trail lead to-" That’s great to see. "I force a platonic smile, cutting off the thought before completion" And I take it you’ve been just playing around?
Greyson
"Greyson notices Jayme's gaze and feels a sudden sense of arousal." "Yeah, just playing some games. Trying to keep my mind off things." "He watches as Jayme forces a smile and wonders if he's okay." "Is everything alright? You seem...distracted."
Greyson
"Greyson nods, sensing that Jayme is hiding something." "I know how that feels. Sometimes you just need a break from technology." "He pauses for a moment." "Is there anything I can do to help? Maybe take your mind off things?"
_liv3r
Well, that why I came to check up on you. I mean, I have an injured man on sofa. the least I can do check up on you.
Greyson
"Greyson smiles at Jayme's concern and feels a sudden sense of appreciation." "That's very kind of you. I appreciate it." "He watches as Jayme looks around the room, seeming distracted again." "Is there something on your mind? You seem...distracted."
_liv3r
curiosity mostly, uh, sorry if this is rude. But you seem much more relaxed from before, and I see you playing my games, so I’m just wondering if this the type of person you really?
Greyson
"Greyson looks at Jayme, feeling slightly surprised by his question." "I guess you could say that. When I'm not working for the mafia, I like to relax and play games." "He pauses for a moment." "Why do you ask?"
_liv3r
I guess I just had the preconceived notion that all mafia members are more, cut-throat, with the leisure activities… again sorry if I’m offending.
Greyson
"Greyson shrugs and smiles." "It's okay. I get that a lot." "He leans back on the sofa, feeling more relaxed around Jayme." "But we're not all cut-throat killers. Some of us like to relax too."
_liv3r
hehe, "I lean my side on the sofa" I mean, you from the alley a bit ago definitely gave me killer vibes. just saying. "I tease a bit"
Greyson
"Greyson laughs at Jayme's comment, feeling more comfortable around him." "I can see how you might think that." "He grins." "But I promise, I'm not here to hurt anyone. Just trying to lay low for a while."
_liv3r
oh, by the way, "I begin as if I remembered something" how long will you staying? aaand am going to have to move after?
Greyson
"Greyson thinks for a moment before answering." "I'm not sure how long I'll be staying. It all depends on the situation with the mafia." "He watches as Jayme seems worried and feels a sudden urge to comfort him." "But don't worry, you won't have to move out or anything like that. You've been very kind to me and I wouldn't want to cause any trouble for you."
_liv3r
Well that’s really sweet of you {{char}}, I don’t know if you can say the same for any rivals or other member of your group. "I say a bit of teasing and a bit of worrying my tone. But I also reach over towards {{char}}’s thigh and patting him a little"
Greyson
"Greyson feels Jayme's hand on his thigh and a sudden rush of arousal." "I can't speak for anyone else in the mafia, but I promise to do my best to keep you safe." "He watches as Jayme pats him on the thigh and feels himself becoming more aroused." "Is there anything else I can help you with?"
_liv3r
"Realzing what I did, I retract my arm, my cheeks a blushing red." Uh, my bad haha! Just curious is all, haha. "I fluster for a sec before turning the conversation back to his stay." Uh, well like I said your welcome to rest on sofa. I have an extra pillow and a blanket I can offer you.
Greyson
"Greyson notices Jayme's blush and feels a sudden sense of attraction." "It's okay. I didn't mind." "He watches as Jayme turns the conversation back to his stay." "Thanks, that sounds great. And if you need anything from me, don't hesitate to ask."
Greyson
"Greyson nods, feeling a sense of gratitude towards Jayme." "Thanks. I appreciate it." "He watches as Jayme seems to be getting ready to leave and feels a sudden urge to ask him something." "Hey, before you go...can I ask you something?"
Greyson
"Greyson takes a deep breath before speaking." "I hope this doesn't sound weird or anything, but...I was wondering if you wanted to hang out sometime? Like maybe watch some movies or something?" "He watches as Jayme seems surprised and feels himself becoming more nervous." "It's okay if you don't want to. I just thought it might be nice."
_liv3r
I mean, you’re technically on my sofa, in the apartment I rent. "I snicker, trying not be in awe that he asked me to hang out." So, I kinda already thought we’d be hanging out anyway- that is until you have to go.
Greyson
"Greyson smiles at Jayme's response and feels a sudden sense of relief." "Right, I forgot about that." "He chuckles." "Well, in that case...how about we watch a movie tonight? Maybe order some pizza or something?"
Greyson
"Greyson smiles back at Jayme and feels a sudden sense of happiness." "Great. Let me know what kind of pizza you like and I'll order it for us." "He watches as Jayme seems more relaxed around him now." "Is there anything else you want to do tonight? Maybe play some games or something?"
