He shut the curtains. Locked his door as I waited on his bed. This was the first time I been in his bedroom. I look around. There was a black chair. Black desk next to a dark blue curtained window. Dark wooden floor like the color floor downstairs. Two red book shelves filled with books from top to bottom. I look over at him who was leaning on the window pane. Is he really going to show me what hides behind his mask. He walks over to me. He shakely goes behind his head trying to undo the tie to the mask. I stood up grabbing his hands away, "Let me?" I said. He crossed his arms on his chest as I worked the knot he ties it good. I managed to get the knot free after a minute. "Are you sure about this?" I wondered.
He nodded, "Do it before I change my mind," he replied back. He was shaking a bit as I ever so slowly removed his mask. I gasp at what I saw. He had a burned scar all around his eye going down to his cheek. "Is it alright if I touch it?" he nodded. I touch his burn on his cheek. "It must of been painful?" Reid nodded slowly. I look at the burned mark on his eye, "Can you still see in that eye?" he nodded. I was relieved by that. "How did it happen?"
"It happened on the same day my village got slaughtered," with a flash I remembered something in my dream when I dreamt about that horrible day the boy who is now Reid was trying to hide under that door in the work shop. I remember Victor throwing bombs in both tunnels.
"There is something else I dreamt of that day when I dreamt of the Village after I saw your parents get killed," I could see his eyes now they were so blue like ocean blue. I also could see the expressions he is making, "I knew where you were hiding under that wooden door. Victor realized or thought someone was under there so he decided to throw bombs. It was the bombs wasn't it?"
Reid took my hand away from his face so he could sit down on the bed, "Yes I got burned from the fire I didn't know it  was a bomb though thought it was something else that caused the flames."
I nodded, "It was. At least in my dream it was." I sat next too him giving his mask back to him, "are you ashamed? Is that why you wear this mask?"
He looks down at his hands, "After I got this scar I had people being afraid of me. There is a town  30 minutes away its where I buy food and such. When I was a boy still I biked there to buy things that I needed. People kept watching me it felt like they were spooked about my scar some made fun of it behind their back."
I touch his face for some reason and it did not make sense on why I did that, touching his burned cheek. He watches me from the corner of his scarred eye, "I am not afraid or spooked by your scar," I reassured him, "to be honest it kind of makes you mysterious," he snorts, "you shouldn't be ashamed of your face," I told him while tracing his burned tissue.
"Your the first one who actually told me that," he looks at his rough hands.
I smiled at him, "You should of heard it more often," I let go of his face. 'Did I see disappointment in his eyes?' "Listen Reid I want to help you," I heard myself say not knowing why I said it after it left my mouth.
Reid looks at me fully, "You want to help me?" he wondered surprised.
"I want to become friends with you and help you out with taking down Marcus." Reid looks down at his mask putting it up to his face, "Here let me?" I offered I went behind him he let me tie his mask back on. I felt a shiver down my spine.
"So you want to help me after what I have done to you?" he wondered surprised, "why?"
"For the longest time you haven't done anything to me and since Victor attacked me and you saving me I am starting to forgive you," I sat back on the bed next to him, " So I was hoping to become friends and partners?" his masked face turns to me probably shocked and surprise with probably some confusion on why I am telling him this, "you probably are wondering why I want to help hunt Marcus I am thinking? Well like I said I don't like someone upsetting or hurting you and seeing those scars on you it made me furious. The thing is," I touch his hand, "I want to help you kill him." my heart skip a beat when saying that I want to kill. "I want to help you carry out revenge," I grinned at him as I touch his face underneath his mask. I do not know why I am touching him so much today but for some reason I don't mind it or care why I do it for that matter all I know is that I want to stay by Reid's side.
Reid laughs at this, "You are joking right?" I shook my head, "do you know the first thing about killing someone or have the motive too?"
I grab his hand, "Teach me?" I said with a grin, "teach me how to be a killer. I mean not kill innocent people but people who deserve it like Marcus."
Reid touches my face, "Will you do what ever I say then?"
"Anything," I whispered in his ear. I look down at his sheets. I don't know what is happening to me! but for some reason I like this feeling. It feels like I got some sort of power developing inside of me I don't understand it yet but one day I will understand my power with probably Reid's help.
We were downstairs in the basement the camera guy was still there in his cell. "Why isn't he eaten yet?" Reid wondered pointing at him looking at his men.
"Well you just told us to know what to do we assumed you mean put him in the cell?" Reid puts his head in his hand rubbing his temple behind his mask. 'Is he ok?' I wondered then I thought of something that would be able to solve this.
"Let me?" I said which got me surprised by saying it.
Reid's mask turns to me hoping he knew what I meant, "You want to feed him to the tiger?"
Well at least he got the killing thought regristered, "No not by the tiger," I patted Reid on the shoulder and walk past him and his men to the closet. Opening it I grab the sword on the floor the sword from Victor. I look over at the guy who was whimpering looking at my actions. I run my fingers over the blade. Tracing the carving. 'So this is what Victor used huh,' I look at his head in the jar no longer frightened by it. 'Well now I will use it for a different purpose.' I look over at a hose by the cage. Grabbing it I run water over the sword to clean what I am guessing Victor's blood. I look over at Reid putting the hose down, "I will kill him myself," I said with a bit of hesitation. He nodded his head probably surprised by this. I was too saying this. I look over at the cell. The man looked terrified at me. "Keys?" I said to his men. I got handed the keys and I open the cell door.
The man was huddled in the corner, "Please spare me," he begged crying alittle.
I look at him, "I don't like it when someone takes pictures of Reid to make fun of him," I sneered looking at the sword.
"I wasn't taking pictures to make fun of him," the man says shaking looking over at Reid.
"Then what were they for?" I look at him from the corner of my eyes, "your partner said it was because of his mask."
"Yes but not to make fun of."
I look over at Reid, "But it has something to do with his mask your partner said so," I look back over to the guy, "what is the reason you have then?" I wondered. He thought about this, "there are no reasons are there." the guy was thinking of what excuse he can do to get out of this. Reid walks up to me, "Where would you like me to do this?"
Reid took the sword out of my hand and dropped it on the ground. I looked surprised by his actions. "Men set the camera guy free," his men was shocked by hearing this. I was too, "now!" he ordered. His men did what he ordered. He looks at the guy, "Your free to go," he says to the guy as he was taken by his men, "but if I ever catch you sniffing near my property again I will hunt you down and show you no mercy next time you got that?"
The guy nodded, "Thank you," he says, "thank you."
"Your setting him free?" I asked shocked. The only time I saw him set someone free was the women and her kid, "I don't understand?"
"Dan," he spoke my name in a hiss, "it was the right thing to do at this point," he puts a hand on my shoulder, "were you really going to kill him?"
I took off his mask to look into his eyes. His eyes looked at me, "No I was just trying to make you do the right thing. Either I kill him or you let him go. Those were an option to figure out on your own," I put his mask back on, "I said I want to help you carry out revenge that deserve it that camera guy was just being an idiot or a nuisance but to actually kill him because of it. It would of been something I would of really regretted." I look up at him, "you seem quiet?"
Reid touches my face, "Never realized how soft your skin is under my fingers," he says in a low hiss. I gasped at his words they were so gentle and sweet.
Back in his bedroom he took out something from his drawer it was a black bracelet, "This will help you fight of Victor he can't touch you while you wear this," he showed me his wrist where he was wearing the same bracelet. He told me to sit down on his bed. When I did he sat himself down wrapping the bracelet around my wrist. I look at it then at Reid with a smile, "I don't want you to get hurt like that again," he admits to me, "I lost everything that night by that blasted Victor and Marcus," I put my hand on his shoulder as his mask faces the floor, "I don't want to lose someone else that I care about and love."
I gasp at his words, 'He loves me?' I look over at him taking off his mask his eyes held something that I couldn't quite tell. It couldn't be what I think it is no Reid has never cried ones around me yet alone feel like it from hearing him talk under that mask I never ones heard his voice temple or broken. "What do you mean by you loving me?" Reid puts his hand behind my head. His lips touching mine. My eyes went wide as he starts closing his eyes. I was just shocked, shocked, shocked. Reid is kissing me!
Reid opens his eyes looking at me. He takes his mouth of me seeing my eyes wide. He wipes his mouth, "Sorry I don't know what has gotten over me?"
I shook my inner self to wake up and stop being frozen, "I was just surprised that's all I was ok with what you were doing," I smiled. Reid looks at me with a surprised look in his eyes. I giggle at that as I pushed him on to his sheets me on top of him. Pinning him. I look into his eyes as I touch his face. Reid puts his arms around me, "The reason why haven't done anything to is because I love you it took me till you got attacked by Victor to realize it."
I was stunt, "Were you worried that I wouldn't wake up?" Reid nodded as he put his hand on his face. My inner self was shocked. Is Reid actually?...no it can't be I mean it's Reid. I felt a shiver down my back. "Reid?" I breathed. He wasn't responding. I saw a tear roll down under his hand. Both my outer and inner self was shocked about this. Reid is actually crying? I inner sighed as I look at more tears dripping under his hand. I felt a stab in my chest. It hurts me to see him break down like that. I held him under me. I felt him touching my hurt arm. "It's ok Reid," I said quietly, "I woke up didn't I?" he nodded as he kisses my arm. I turn his face to me. He is beautiful when he cries it still hurts me though to see a man who is so brave and strong infront of me and his men and the ones who he imprisoned tearing up like this. He hides his face in his hands.  "It's ok Reid," I said taking his hands away from his face. I smiled at him sadly, "I am sorry I worried you like that," I whisper in his ear. Wiping his eyes. Touching his scar. I put my hand behind his head going closer to his lips. He closed the gap. Locking lips with mine. I pinned him on the bed as I start kissing him. I never ones really thought about my sexuality really I know I am attracted to girls but it seems like I discovered that I like Reid who is a guy and someone who treated me bad. I still think it was cruel but I am starting to forgive him . I don't love him yet though but kissing him and seeing him actually cry made me realize how much he means to me in return. I let go of his lips looking at him, "By the way there is somethings yet to answer. Like your dreams and my father?"
He thought about this for a second as he looks at my hurt arm, "By now I will answer anything that you want to ask?" he answered looking up at me.
I smiled at him with surprise, "Same here if we ever want us to work we need to also know one another as well."
"I agree with that statement," he smirks.
"Well lets start now. How about we start with your name first?" I stroked his burned mark while asking.
"It's Reidson."
