Negative [On Hold]

Liam’s POV

I knew Ty was going to hate this. I just knew it. Harry was all for taking down Jax ever since they drugged Lou and they wanted to use him as bait. I love Tyler and all, but his choice in friends was questionable. I’m barely okay with Ace, but Jax... I’ve seen him as an enemy for a long time. I couldn’t just not hate him. Especially since he still hates me.

Ty’s deep asleep in his bed with nothing on after a long night. He’s mostly healed from the bullet, but he still has a pain in his thigh when he moves it time to time so I went gentle on him. As much as I hate to do this, I just had to rip the bandage off this one. I had to tell him today or Harry would have my head.

To soften him up, I headed to the kitchen in my boxers and start cooking cooking blueberry pancakes and scrambled eggs. His favorites. When they’re done, I placed on a plate and poured some orange juice for him and set it down. He should be up in three, two, one...

His quick footsteps downstairs were loud as he ran for food. “I smell pancakes!” I smiled as his childishness as he jumped into my arms wearing only his boxers. “Thanks babe.” He kissed me before sitting down in his chair. I smiled and sat down next to him with my own food and started eating.

“Do you like them?” I asked, taking a bite out of mine.

He nodded, “Mmhm.” I smiled. He’s two years younger than me, but sometimes he acts a lot younger. It reminds me that I don’t have to be serious all the time. Once he devours one of his pancakes, he swallows some juice. “What’s the occasion? You don’t make blueberry pancakes for any day.”

I smiled guiltily. “I don’t want to lie so I’m just going to say, Zayn and Harry have concocted a new plans, but you won’t like it.”

He placed his fork down and looked at me cautiously. “What’s going on?”

I pressed my lips together and sighed, “Well, Harry feels that since Dekker took his best friend, he’d take his. I think you’re catching on.”

He shook his head, “No. No. Jax isn’t just Dekker’s friend, but he’s also mine. I’ve known him since Nursery, he’s my best friend more than Dekker’s.” He sighed, “I’m not even sure if want to know what they’re going to do.”

I shook my head, “Let’s just say the punishments are going to be reciprocated.”

“What?! It’s dangerous to play with cyanide! Louis got lucky, but Jax has a weak immune system. You poison him, he’s dead,” He reasoned with a pleading look. “Please, Liam. Jax is my closest friend. I can’t lose him.”

I sighed, “I don’t know what to do. Harry is set on this and he’s trying to convince Remix on it. Though I’m pretty sure he ain’t getting anywhere. If anything, Remix either left his house or he got kicked out of hers.”

Tyler stood up and ran up the stairs. I didn’t care what was happening, but I ran up after him as quick as I can. He ran into his bedroom and picked up his phone. “I’m calling Remix. She’s gotta back me up on this.”

“Babe, I’m not forcing you to do anything. I tried talking them out this then they reminded me what I felt like when they shot you,” I mumbled and hugged him from behind. “I mean, I don’t want to hurt you, but there’s very little options.”

He hung up the phone and turned around in my arms. He embraced me and snuggled in close. “I know, but Jax has been through so much with me. I faced so much obstacles and he helped me through it. He helped me break the news to my parents that I’m bi. He was there when everyone hated me for being gay. I don’t love him like I love you, but I love him like a brother. I can’t stand the thought of someone killing him.”

I rubbed his back and kissed his temple. “I wish there was something I can do, but with or without you and Remix, he’s going to get him. It can’t helped. Unless you can convince one of them to switch the punishment for something with an increased chance of surviving, it’s going to be an eye for an eye.”

“Liam, what am I going to do?” He sighed into my shoulder.

“I don’t know, love,” I told him honestly. “I really don’t know.” I mumbled.


Remix’s POV

Have you ever just switched from ‘God, I love this person so much’ to ‘I hope they die painfully’ in seconds? Well, with Harry it’s like that. He decided to visit me for a little talk. I, of course, agreed
but that changed when he told me his ‘special plan’. Apparently, he wanted to kill Jax so Dekker can pay for trying to kill Lou.

One, that's a stupid plan. I mean, c'mon, be original! Gas him! I know a guy that knows a guy that can get us better poison. And two, he's not touching Jax. He's one of my friends and Ty's childhood companion. No one's killing anyone. Not on my watch.

“We’re not going to kill him!” Harry tried to reason once again.

“Cyanide isn’t something to play with,” I told him trying to keep my composure. “Louis was extremely lucky. Even with a drop, it could be fatal. “

“So we’re going to let him them get away with it?” He asked. “Ty got shot and Lou almost died. What do you want me to do?”

I sighed, “Just keep your hands off Jax.”

“Why?” He asked, defeated.

He sat on my bed while I still stood near my desk. “Why? You’re seriously asking why?” I chuckled. “A Viper once betrayed his own gang to save someone he loved. The least we can do for him is save his best friend.”

He groaned, “But Ty isn’t Jax.”

“I know Ty isn’t Jax. I never said he was, but Jax is Ty’s best friend,” I told him. “I can’t let you hurt him.”

“Re, he tried to kill Lou! How can I just let this go?! He tried to kill my friend, I’m just getting revenge,” He explained.

“I’m not saying you shouldn’t get revenge, but think of Ty. How do you think he’ll feel after the people he risked his life for kills his best friend,” I asked. “Look, you don’t know much about him. When he was younger, he was the best target for bullies. Nerdy, frail, and shy. He told me that Jax was the only one who ever tried to help him. Even after coming out as bi. Hell, his own parents hate him for it. We all know what it’s like only having friends to depend on. You honestly want to take that one person from him?”

“That’s change the fact he and Dekker—”

I interrupted him, “Jax is more Tyler’s friend than anyone else’s. If you want to strike Alek. From what I know, he’s their Zayn. With no brains, he can’t progress further and we can strike from there. The eye for an eye can go later. Right now, think on statistics, not emotions.”

“I’m not!” He yelled, standing up. “It’s just...”

“Just shut up, idiot, and admit I’m right,” I smirked seeing him at a loss for words.

He grumbled, “Fine.”

I chuckled, “Aw. Is wittle baby Styles upset?” I walked over to him and pinched his cheeks. He scowled and pushed my hands off. “Don’t worry wittle boy. Wemix knows how to fix this.” I smiled and pressed my lips against his holding his body close. “Better?” I asked when I pulled away and rested my forehead against his.

He nodded, “How the fuck do you have to so much control over me?”

“Because I’m awesome,” I answered easily before pulling away with his phone. “Now, I’m gonna call Zayn.”

“Why?” He asked.

“Gotta revise the plan.”

Notes

He guys, it's Tori. Sorry that it's been a while. Rana's been busy and I just been doing some stuff. I'm trying to watch my friends' favorite anime and it's taking longer than expected. I'm watching them so I can finally understand their references they make everyday. Anyways, how are you guys? Any comments?
