I noticed (and this annoyed me a lot and I don't know if this happened for anybody else) that the second half of Chapter 12 wouldn't show after a pink dress picture and says it is a draft, so I'll repost it here.
The second dress in the bag looked very expensive. It was gold and black and had a golden rose on the front. It looked like it was made of satin and it was one that he would wear on special occasions.
The third dress in the bag was so far the one he would wear around the mansion sometimes. It was strapless and was pink on the torso and when it got to the skirt it was black and pink. The front would go his knees and the back would go under the knee, the calf. (I hope I got that right)
When did Steven and Alex find the time to buy him these lovely dresses?? When did they get the money? He put the dresses in the closet, continuing to wear his current attire until they had to leave.
He went back to reading his book and a man with green hair came into the room with some food. Kenzou smiled and thanked him, earning a bow before the man took his leave. Kenzou walked to the cart and got some of the sponge cake that was there along with some lemonade. They really did have a lot of food here, didn't they?
He took the food to the couch in the room -his bag had been put in the corner so now the couch didn't have a lot of his stuff on it- and sat down. Eating the cake that was on the plate in his hands, his mind went back to the twins.
He had met them first in school when they had bumped into him. They had shown him a flicker of kindness when they met. The then saw each other again at the hospital. They 'saved' him from his step-mother and took him to the mansion. The pack had been mostly kind to him, there was someone who at night in some of his dreams if they weren't of his mother, they were of a wolf. More like a fox the size of one. The wolf-sized fox had seven tails and beautiful eyes. It would speak to him with such wisdom and grace - almost like it knew him from somewhere. A sad distant look would be in his eyes as if he remembered something extremely painful, while Kenzou could only watch from where his tail was rooted to the ground in the dream. He had heard some whispers and words from around the mansion of a thing called a 'mate'. He had no idea what a mate was, and he didn't think he wanted to. Him and the twins were friends now, right?
For some reason, a few weeks ago, he was crying in a bathroom about loving someone. Was he supposed to love the twins? Sure, he loved them like brothers/friends. But love love? He had never loved someone like that before excluding his mother. She was a lovely lady, very nice. He only got specks of her in quick buzzes like the flash of a camera in his mind. Very quick pictures of the woman. She would usually stand in front of him in a vision for a few seconds before walking behind a corner and put of sight, like the first time she was standing in the closet with him, her lavender coloured eyes would be censored and blurred out. One time when he had tried to follow her around a corner, she was nowhere to be seen.
Kenzou would usually sit in the bedroom, listening to the silence that surrounded him. He would feel warm and calm with all of the quiet and nothingness that filled his ears and mind, usually putting a small smile on his face.
He finished his cake and lemonade, putting them back on the tray before looking back towards the door and his heart began to pound. He tiptoed to his bag and grabbed a cigarette with a lighter. He hadn't smoked too much in the past two weeks. Only five a week, now. But he was still careful in case the twins showed up, but they wouldn't be returning for a while. So he locked the door and lit the cigarette outside.
After he smoked three of them, he went back inside, changed into some pink shorts, a black singlet and brushed his teeth. Kenzou then went back over to his bed and fell asleep, relaxing his weak legs and pounding heart.
Hopefully the twins would come later.
A/N: I might, uhm, post what the dresses look like in the next chapter or something because they won't work in this chapter... I feel guilty.
