Chapter 52

                     Author's POV

Lan kept glancing at his clock as he awaits Damon. He had organized and reorganized his room hoping everything was in order.

He felt so anxious having Damon over and being in such a close space with him.

He sat down on his bed pinching his fingers and waiting.

"Baby Damon's here to see you!!!" His mother yelled from down stairs.

His pulses increased making him more nervous. Lan forced himself to breathe as he wait for him.

It wasn't long after, his door creaked open and Damon stepped him. He leaned on the door and crossed his arms staring at him.

"W-what are you looking at? We have to begin their is no time" Lan snapped uncomfortable with his stare.

"You waited so anxiously for me right? Thought I wouldn't come?" Damon asked humour in his voice.

Lan scoffed and sat comfortably on the bed ushering him over.

Damon sat beside him leaning on the headboard.

Lan walked over to his desk and picked up the papers and books he had already organized for their project. He laid them out on the bed and sat beside Damon.

"You didn't bring a book?" He said looking baffled.

"You didn't tell me to bring a book" Damon shrugged.

"I feel like strangling you right now. Who goes to work on a project with a book or a bag at least!" Lan glared at him.

"Me" Damon replied pointing at himself, a smirk on his lips.

Lan closed his eyes taking in a deep breathe to calm himself.

"I have organized a few ideas I think would work great for our project and the kind of project that'd be better for us to do...." He started, showing Damon the papers and ideas he had for their project.

"So you want us to work on the History of this Town?" Damon asked looking confused.

Lan nodded a smile on his lips"Yes. I figured since we were given an assignment to work on a history we should do one close to everyone's heart.

The history behind this town would be great. I was googling and going through some old news papers and some crazy events had happen in this town. Plus this town had founders and was alot different in the past with different cultures. We can work on that. What do you think? " Lan asked staring at him with hopeful eyes. He had work hard to come up with all this ideas before he came so he'd feel bad if it wasn't good enough.

Damon scratched his head as he stared at him. His eyes was begging him to agree.

He sighed"I mean I don't have any ideas to give so we have no choice" He replied.

Lan's eyes dropped. He didn't like it then. He thought.

Damon seeing that felt bad. He hurriedly added"But it was nice. The idea was good" He praised.

Lan's heart lifted. The sadness in his eyes vanished. He always worked hard and praises were what kept him going.

"Okay then we will do just that" He said with a smile. Damon's lips stretched into a smile as well as he saw the happiness in his eyes.

They spent a few minutes googling, sharing ideas well mostly lan cause Damon just sat and watched his every moment and facial expressions. Like when he would squeeze his face if he doesn't understand a thing, or when he would bite his lips to concentrate. He saw it all.

A knock came on the door drawing their attention. The door creaked open Lan's mom stepped in with a tray, a smile on her face.

"I brought food. Don't forget to have it" She said dropping it on the bedside table and left not wanting to disturb them.

Damon had already dipped his hand into the cookie plate biting into it. The crumbs falling on the bed.

"Hey what are you doing?!" Lan yelled glaring at him.

"What do you mean what am I doing? I'm eating. I have been working so hard giving a dull brain like you ideas" Damon replied drinking the milk and shoving a cookie down his throat as well.

Lan glared at him annoyed at the mess he was making on his bed.

"I will be back and you better not have my share" He warned walking into the bathroom.

Damon grinned and stared at his milk taking a huge gulp of it as well.

Lan's phone rang on the bedside table drawing his attention. He stared at the bathroom door waiting for it open but it didn't and the phone kept ringing.

He picked it up and stared at the caller. His lips pulled up when he saw who it was.

He picked the call laying back down on the bed.

"Oh hey... boyfriend. How are you doing??" He said with a sweet voice.

"Damon? How did you get lan's phone? Where are you? Is lan with you? If you dare hurt him I swear---" Damon cut him off.

"Shhhh.... you're make too much noise. Relax. Your boyfriend is with me. He is safe" Damon replied a grin on his lips. He was enjoying teasing Mark alot.

"H-how did you know he was---"

"Of cause I'd know. You didn't try to hide it much from me. You kept shoving it in my face." Damon said a smile on his lips.

Mark sighed over the phone "Just hand the phone to Lan" He said already fed up listening to Damon.

"Sorry I can't. He is in the bathroom currently preparing for our little sleep over" Damon replied.

"What rubbish are you spilling!" Mark yelled fuming.

Damon chuckled"Rubbish? It's not rubbish. We are having fun so please don't ruin that. Lan and I are going to make magic tonight" Damon said grinning.

"Damon don't you dare touch him or I swear I will...."

"You will what? And I---"

The door opened and lan stepped him cutting him off. He stared at damon confused and glanced at the phone in his ear. His eyes widened when he realized it was his.

"Oh he just got out and my..my... he sure is looking delicious. Sorry Mark but I'm not so sure I can resist plus he might be the one jumping on me tonight. That towel is really low on his waist and his body looks so delicate" Damon whistled reiling Mark up.

"You bastard!!!" Mark yelled.

Lan rushed over to Damon trying to pull the phone out of his hand but he kept resisting trying to pull away.

",Damon! Let it go! Give it back!" Lan yelled.

"Did you hear that? He is trying to jump on me. Oh my...not their lan..oh goodness don't touch me their, you're so naughty..."He grinned while messing with them. The call got disconnected making his smile grow. He handed the phone back to fuming Lan.

Lan pulled the phone out of his hand forcefully.

He picked up a pillow and smacked him really hard.

"How dare you!! What is wrong with you!! What did I ever do to you? Why do you want to ruin my relationship!!" He yelled hitting him.

Damon dorged climbing down from the bed as lan chased him with the pillow. Tears gathered in his eyes as his heart burned with rage.

He kept hitting an amused Damon. Damon caught the pillow flinging it out of his reach.

He stared at him with serious eyes.

"You want to know why I'm doing all this?" He asked.

"Yes I do. Why are turning my world upside down!" Tears of frustration rolled down his cheeks. He wiped it off with his arm staring at Damon.

Damon backed him up, his eyes piercing deep into his soul. It felt like he could see deep into his insecurities and fears.

Lan's back hit the door bringing him to a halt. Damon hovered over him, his hands caging him.

"Move away!" Lan said glaring at him.

"No. I am doing all this because I want you to admit your feelings for me." He replied.

Lan stared at him, his face hardened.

"What feelings?" He asked.

"Yours" Damon replied staring at him.

"I do not and will never have feelings for you. I love Mark. And Mark only!"

"Then why did you sleep with me?" Damon asked shutting him up.

Lan kept quiet avoiding his eyes.

"It was a mistake" he replied.

Damon wasn't offended as he expected him to say that. But he wouldn't give up. If lan wants war then he'd get one but he must get him to admit his feelings. Those emotions he felt that day was not fake. He could see it in his eyes and everytime he got close to him.

"You feel something for me Lan and I can see it. I promise you I will get you to say I love you to me soon" He said determination in his eyes.

Lan scoffed in disbelief "You can do whatever you want but that won't change the fact that I don't love you. You're the one after me, you're the one obsessed with me"

" It's a challenge then. The fact that your little boyfriend don't know about what happened between us, proves that you have some kind of feelings and attraction for me. And I will get you to tell me how much you love me in 72hours." Damon replied with determination.

"And if I don't?"

"Then I will leave you alone for good and disappear from your life." Damon stated.

Lan's heart panged inside of him at the thought of never seeing Damon again. His throat tightened. He hated how the thought of it hurts him.

"Then get ready to lose, cause it will never happen. I don't love you Damon and I never will. You're the one in love with me but sorry I cannot reciprocate" Lan said equally staring at him.

Damon leaned closer to him making him seize his breathe. His hand moved under lan's shirt slowly, making him shiver.

"Then why does your body react everytime I come close and touch you. Why do you find it hard to stare into my eyes.

Why don't you ever stop me from being this close to you? Why don't you ever stop me from touching you? " Damon asked rubbing his soft skin. He leaned on him bending his head over his neck. His lips feeling his skin.

Lan was breathless. His body felt hot as Damon moved his hand.

He pushed him away rattled and stepped back. Sweat coated his forehead.

"You see lan. I am the only one capable of making you react like this. You know you love me and now I will make you say it and when I do, you will be only mine, just mine!" Damon said,his eyes darkened.

Lan gulped at the seriousness of his words.

"I-if anyone would get to say I love you, then it will be you and not me cause I don't love you!" Lan challenged.

Damon's lips pulled up "It's a challenge then. Sweet" he smirked in satisfaction.

The night came short as Damon left. The atmosphere was too tense between them to be able to study.

Lan laid on his bed replaying Damon's words in his head.

"I don't love him." He mumbled to himself.
