Take a shower.

He walked leisurely to the shower, steam filling the room as he stood under the showerhead. He bathed his skin lightly, taking careful notice not to touch the bruises that scattered his body from last night. The warm sensation calmed him making the argument from before feel trivial. Random stepped from the shower and took a towel to dry himself off. Once again he saw himself in the mirror; he wiped a hand over the glass ridding it of the condensation and looked at his reflexion. It appeared after a short shower his wounds had completely healed and more importantly his stomach. The young man still feeling the cold sting where the stranger woman impaled him, an experience he wouldn’t repeat.

From the bathroom, he wore a towel around his waist and was happy to see his mother had returned home. Random did his routine of sneaking up behind her and taking their toast, it stopped being normal after the kiss on the cheek. After she felt a peck on her skin, the young man’s mother felt compelled to catch hold of the towel and pull him into a deep embrace.

To make things worse, the towel he wore snagged loose and dropped to the floor. Random looked into his mother’s eyes the gateway to the soul; the lips the gateway to the body. Their softness, passion and the promise of the sweetness to come. The young man supported himself, leaning a hand on her shoulder before a certain someone broke the mood.

Crimson looked at the incestuous pairing with her book pressed to her chest. “Hey, moron the bus.” She rolled her eyes as stood in the living room, already dressed in her school uniform.

“R-right…” Random pulled from his mother and turned red. She replied in kind, without a word.

“I can’t believe we missed the bus!” Crimson complained as the duo walked to school. “All because you wanted to outdo Oedipus.”

“Quit bitching isn’t like we will be late.” Too exhausted to speak he chose the lazy option. "Besides, this is your fault for messing with her mind.”

The girl flashed her demonic eyes not enjoying his logic. They continued to walk nearing the school gates, the boy eyes lingering on anything that wasn't the ‘Snake’ he didn’t want another argument, especially near school. Random looked across the street noticing a strange figure leaning in an alleyway. The last thing he glimpsed being raven hair before a truck raced past and the figure disappeared. “Huh?”

“Are you even listening?!” He shook his head and turned back to Crimson.

“No my mind was elsewhere.” Right before he felt he could talk normally to the creature she lightly punched his stomach. “Ugh! Fuck you're needy. Fine, I’m sorry I wasn't listening to you. So what were you talking about?”

“Never mind.” The girl said sadly slightly disappointed.

Random didn’t think much on her response but he noticed her uniform. It only came to him but she’d worn nothing else since she got here. From the times she wore her shirt in bed and who knows what the girl, she stole it from, did in them. The uniform had already revealed to have some wear and tear. “We will have to get you some new clothes.” He stated plainly

Crimson jumped at the suggestion and blushed. “Yes! I mean sure whatever.”

The pair had finally made it to the front gates were the most unpleasant sight waited for them. A group of male students that appears freakishly tall and freakishly strong. The boy froze like a deer in the headlights, their brute leader wrapped a hand on Random’s shoulder and pulls him in close. “Hey ‘buddy’ where you been hiding?’

“Another friend of yours?” The demon asked in her uncaring way.

“You haven’t told her about me?” The brute asked while he pushed his large thumb into his shoulder causing the boy plain.

“N-no sorry this is Max, Crimson you should go you will be late.” He spoke nervously.

“But Big Brother!” She yelled out loud in her childish voice.

“Fuck off Crimson!” He thought harshly hiding his true nature to protect her.

“Fine, you play with your friend.” She stuck her tongue out but inside he could tell she was pissed. He’d have to deal with that later as his watch her walked over.

The brute known as Max watched the girl with a lecherous gaze, lapping his lips. “Didn’t know you had a little sis dickwad, where have you been hiding that tight cunt? She’s too cute for you to keep all to yourself.” Max revealed his true nature the second the demon left. He laughed and the group backing him laugh with him.

Random laughed nervously and bite his lip. “Look can we just get this over with?”

A low growl came from the brute as he looked down at the boy. “Ha, always down to business? I like that about you freak.” He reached into Random’s pocket and remove his wallet pulling out all the money the boy had. “You’re running light today freak. We can’t be having that can we boys?

“No Max!” They answered in unison.

“All right give twenty minutes with your little sister and we can look this one over. What do you say?”

Random Hated the idea of this creep getting his hands on Crimson, he was far from feeling protective, of the demon he was selfish, he just had sex for the first time and like an animal, he wanted to keep his mate all to himself. “Look you have the money so leave hear the fuck alone. “The boy said bravery.

Max turned to face his yes-men. “Wow, look at that he wants to protect his sister. I can respect that.” He nodded in agreement they all nodded back. However, the second Max turned back around a clenched fist found its way into Random’s face knocking him to the ground. “Don’t grow some balls freak, or I’ll rip them off.” Max spat at the ground next to the boy’s face and singled his gang to follow them.

Wheezing in pain the young man’s vision was a haze, thankful the unholy healing work wonders, as he saw the figure of a girl running to him.
