Carlo

    Alex's fist connected to Preston's face the minute he opened the door and even though it didn't knock him out, it did a number on his nose. Preston groaned in pain before glaring back at Alex who looked ready to strike again.

    Tracking Es had been easy because I was that paranoid best friend that downloaded the find my friend app so I could be able to find him anywhere. As long as he had his phone with him.

     After getting Ariesa and the camp manager, they made me track him with my phone and soon, we found ourselves in front of a motel with one of our camp guards sleeping outside a door. Alex was able to scare the fuck right out of him and MK aided with his height.

     The camp manager took the guard and Ariesa stopped Alex before he could cause more harm on Preston. Alex obeyed her but didn't forget to snarl at Preston, indicating that they were not done.

     Since the coast was clear, I found myself sprinting into the room and saw Escalante tied up. I knew he wouldn't want anyone to see him the way he was so I called out to the camp manager as he cuffed Preston who shouted hysterically at them; Saying something that rhymed with 'perfect night' and 'good sex'. "I'll take care of Es."

     The man nodded and pushed Preston and the guard into the car. He said something to Ariesa and she nodded and stepped away from the driver's seat. He took it and drove off.

    Ariesa huffed, running a hand through her hair in frustration and said, walking up to us, "Are you okay Alex?"

     Ariesa had been worried shitless the moment Alex told her the full story. She had intended on him not coming along but he was persisted and MK was backing him up all the way. Camila, Jacinta and Patrick volunteered to stay back and that was how the car fit the lots of us.

"I'm fine." He frowned then glared at her, "You should have let me get one more in. I don't think I knocked enough sense into him."

     MK had been as supportive as he could be but instead of backing Alex up like he normally did, he pulled him into a hug and dragged him away when Ariesa just stared at him worriedly.

     When he had pulled him to a corner to calm down, Ariesa looked at me then passed me into the room, forcing me to close the door behind me before she could see the state Es was in. She sighed and said, "How is he?"

"I'm going to check on him."

"I'll call you when the car arrives." We nodded our understanding and she turned away to bother Alex.

    Slipping into the room, I locked the door before running to get the rope off his hand. His eyes fluttered open and I was shocked by the fear and vulnerability in them. It made me more pissed when I realized Preston was the first to see him in this state. Of all the bastard Es had fucked, why was it the psycho that got the best expression out of him?

     My hands finished untying the rope and I started to hug him, only for my hands to feel something hard under them. Now, you would think after getting kidnapped and tied to a bed, Es would learn how to stop being a pervert.

     Too bad Es was Es because he was sporting a fully erect boner which, in fact distracted me for a while. What? I wasn't exactly straight when it came to Es.

     I made a move to pull back from him because of my embarrassing thought but Es leaped at me after removing the sock from his mouth, pulling me into a bone crushing hug that immediately had me gripping on to him.

    His body was hot and sweat glistered on his skin making it twinkle under the lightening in the room. Es was exhaling hard and from his arms tightening around me, I knew he wasn't going to let go soon.

"It is okay, Es. He's gone now."

"I'm so sorry." He choked on a sob causing my eyes to widen.

     Pulling away, I stared at him to be sure I was seeing him cry because trust me, Es doesn't cry. If he wanted to, he'd rather be alone to do it but looking at him as the salty liquid slid down his face, I was shocked to the point I was speechless. His defense was entirely broken down.

"I'm so sorry I didn't believe you." He wailed, burying his head in my chest.

     All I wanted to do right then was kiss him. I wasn't good at comforting people because the only friend I had didn't cry in public or didn't let me see him cry. Softly, I rubbed his back and said soothing words to him. Anything to making him calm down and I was relieved to see it working.

     He finally stopped telling me how wrong he was. His hands fell to his side and he looked up at me, his green eyes giving out a more refreshing look and I sighed, "Good to see you back."

His lips twitched and I thought he wanted to say something when a loud moan escaped him, making not just him but myself embarrassed. I panicked when he started squirming and he said, "If you are not going to suck me off please get your hand off my throbbing boner."

     My eyes widened in realization and I jumped out of the bed. I ignored the look he was giving me and moved to the end of the bed to untie his legs. The minute I freed his legs, Es jumped out of the bed, pushed me against the wall and attacked my lips.

     I didn't know what to make of it. Stockholm syndrome or he was just horny but I melted to it anyhow it came. My hands draped around his waist as his teeth gnawed on my lower lip sending a thrill through me. It was a weird kind of thrill that had me yearning for him.

     Es grinded against me, releasing a soft moan when my hand cupped his neck and I gave him access to my mouth. Not knowing if he was trying to tease me, a whimper escaped me when he pulled away from my mouth to kiss my neck. My back arched and I growled softly when he squeezed my butt.

     My mind was only filled with Es's scent and how he tasted when he kissed me again. Diving into my mouth and tasting every part of me. There was something about this kiss that was different than the other times Es had kissed me.

     This one didn't feel fake or forced. It felt perfect with the way his hands touch me in all the right places and when his tongue came in contact me mine, it sent a warm feeling throughout my body and I felt like melting to every stroke. 

    We pulled away to catch our breaths and Es leaned his forehead on mine. My eyes watched his lips and I felt like capturing them again.

Es glanced up at me then said, "Carlo, I swear to god, I will fuck you senseless if you don't pull out the butt plug in my asshole."

     At the moments words were failing me so I just looked at him confused for a second before I finally cut on. I gave him a droll stare and pulled away from his grasp to search for his clothes, "Pull it out yourself."

"You just had to ruin the moment." He cursed in Spanish making me roll my eyes. I turned away just as he pulled his boxers down and I was glad when I saw his outfit folded on the drawer.

I picked it up and turned to hand it to him but I saw him stumbling into the bathroom with his boxers around his ankles. Suppressing a groan, I walked up to the door and knocked on it. "I got your clothes."

"Drop them or you can come in here and watch me jerk off. The latter I would prefer."

I scoffed, moving away from the door when I heard him moaning loudly. Normally, this wouldn't affect me but after that kiss just now, I was dying to see the expression he was making. The urge to walk in there and pleasure him senseless was undeniable but I was able to withstand it. He reached his hand out of the bathroom to gesturing for me to give him his clothes.

     Handing it to him, he closed the door back and I waited until he was done before he came out, completely dressed. I smiled at him and he sighed, tousling his black hair.

"I'm happy you are alright."

"Yeah." He neared me again and my breath hitched in reaction to his closeness.

It made me take a step back and I adjusted my shirt so he wouldn't notice I was trying to be away from him. I nodded and said, "Ariesa is outside. I should tell her you are okay."

When he nodded his reply, I turned to leave but he stopped me by latching on to my hand. I spun back to him but he let go of me quickly as if my body was on fire and he gave me a weird familiar look.

It was familiar but I couldn't remember it. Then he shook his head. "I'm sorry I'm acting weird. I'm just really fucked up right now."

"Hey, it's okay." My lips pressed into a thin line as I pulled him in for another hug. "I'm here so everything is fine. No one is going to touch you again."

"I should have listened to you and Alex. God, Alex is going to be mad at me." He hugged me back, tightly. His head buried in my neck and I hummed softly into his ears.

"It's going to be all right."

"I love you, Carlo." He mumbled those words into my neck and my cheeks heated. The fact that he might have meant it in the non-brotherly way caused my heart to accelerate and my arms instantly tightened around him.

     A knock was heard by the door and we pulled away slowly to look at it. My arm was still around his waist and he didn't bother to remove it causing me to sigh with relief.

"Are you guys okay in there? The car's here."

"Es is fine. They didn't do much to him."

"I don't know if that's supposed to make it sound better." Es glared at me then huffed.

"Okay. Come on out." Ariesa said.

"We are coming."  I turned to Es and kept my hand on his shoulder. "Are you ready?"

He gave me a drolly stare, "You are making it more dramatic than it already is."

"Sorry, I'm just watching out for you." I said helplessly, as I played with his hair to give it that Escalante look.

     He smacked my hand away and shrugged the other one off his shoulder. Scoffing, he started before me to the door, "Thanks for watching out for me before but I think I'm fine now."

"Says the guy that almost got gang raped." I rolled my eyes, leaving the room the same time with him.

"I wasn't gang raped. Preston was just molesting me." He shrugged as if it wasn't a big deal and it made me gape at him. This was the dude that was crying when I came in. What in God's name is this mood swing?

"Well it was supposed to be a gang rape."

"You can stop biting my ass about it now."

    Everyone had already gotten into the SUV except Ariesa. She waved for us to come quickly but I caught Es' hand and frowned at him. What was wrong with him? I just save his goddamn butt and this was how he was repaying me?

     If he was going to be mean to me, why did he kiss me back there, so desperately like he needed me? He glared at me but I ignored it and said, "Don't think you can just ignore this, Es. You might not have been raped but being molested is just as bad. It's vile and you should feel something because you were a victim. I don't know if this badass façade is how you are going to get over it but you should know that I am here for you. So don't treat me like an asshat because you are in a shitty mood. I just saved you goddamn butthole."

I started to leave when he said, "What if I wanted it? What if I wanted to get molested?"

"From the way you cried when you saw me, I doubt it."

    I continued to make my way to the car when Es brushed passed me, hard. He started to enter the car but stopped and gave me a long hard look. "Don't think because I let you see me like that, things have changed between us."

    It stung. Like an iceberg stabbing me straight in my heart. At that moment, I felt numb. How could I have thought we would get back together just because I saved him?

    God. Sometimes, I'm simple minded.
