She sat on him and tore his shirt aggressively.“Elena!” Raphael called screaming, as he shut his eyes tight and tried to get her off him but she was too strong.Elena who was on top of him, fell to side, getting off of him began to laugh hysterically.“It’s not funny!” Raphael screamed scurrying away from her.Elena glanced at his face and the fear and relief on his face made her laugh the more. She was only just playing with him and pretending to do the distractions he saw on the 18 plus movies he watched and he got scared along the way.“You need to wash that clown make over off your face.” Elena managed to voice out through her laughter, because it was making him look more hilarious and it was difficult containing her laughter.Elena sighed. “Come on. Let me help you. Sit.” She said pointing at the chair.She pulled open a drawer and brought out a packet of wipes.“What is that?” Raphael asked glaring at her as she approached him with it
Ajax swallowed hard as he was beginning to feel tense. “Umm….” Ajax mumbled feigning surprise. “Sorry, I don’t understand What do you-”“Don’t lie to me Ajax Rodney Ronald.” Vaughn warned, his eyes glaring.“Ugh.. fine.” Ajax said sighing in surrender. “First of all, don’t be mad.” Ajax stretched his hands forth in a bid to calm Vaughn because Vaughn’s face grew expressionless as seconds ticked by.“Yes, I work at Grey’s labs despite your warnings.” Ajax said.Vaughn nodded. “Go ahead.” He said as Ajax paused. “I want to know everything. How is it there? Why did you choose to work there? What exactly is your job there?”“Well…” Ajax paused as he stared at Vaughn pointedly. Could he trust Vaughn? Well, of course he could, he was his only family alive, but would it be okay revealing these secrets of Grey’s labs to him?“Go ahead Ajax. Tell me the truth.” Vaughn said softly, his eyes assuring Ajax that it was fine.“Nicholas granted me access to my parents labs.” Ajax finally said afte
His necklace was not just a pendant. It was not like any other pendant. It looked more like a tiny pocket watch. Only that there was nothing to show time, but what was there, was the picture of his parents. He knew about that part, but he did not know about this part that could open.“Do you understand what just happened?” Vaughn asked staring at Ajax, a tint of amusement in his eyes.Ajax watched him, as he replayed the last few moments in his head. That was when it clicked.“Let me see my pendant.” Ajax said as he touched it. “Is this made of tungsten?” He asked watching Vaughn.“You are indeed your father’s son!” Vaughn said as he began to laugh. He was not laughing so hard, but his eyes were getting misty as he laughed. “A freaking genius!”Ajax chuckled clearly unsure of what Vaughn meant. He would take it as a compliment anyways. “I figured most of the stuffs in Grey’s lab is made from tungsten. I thought it was a rare metal.” Ajax inquired.“Oh. I no longer work there. I think
“So, I need your opinion on something first.” Elena said.Ajax almost fell back from his chair due to the switch. He swore that she would make a good actress.His mind flashed back to when she first told him that she was an art major, theater arts student that wanted to be an actress. Maybe she was not lying after all. Maybe it was something she also wanted to do because she would make a good one.“Ajax.” She called. It took him a while to realize that he has been staring at her blankly in silence for quite a while.“Yeah. Umm… Sure… wh…What is it?” Ajax said stuttering his response.“What do you think about us...” Elena said pointing at her, Raphael and him.“Huh?” He cut in.Wait him? Us? What did she mean?“Shut up and listen!” Elena deadpanned shooting a glare at him. “What do you think about us. You, Raphael and I as room mates?”“Umm..” Ajax answered, totally unsure of how to respond. “I.. I don’t think such is allowed in the college dorms….”Raphael threw his head on the table,
The three college students were seen running in the streets, Ajax being the one pulling them. It was a funny sight to behold. Elena was dressed fine as usual, in her light crop top and combat trousers with a nice Nike air to go with it. Raphael was in his usual T shirt and jeans with slides. Ajax. Ajax had just woken up that morning to the sound of his gramps. Had breakfast and spoke with him till he chased him out of his room. He never really had the chance to freshen up.When Elena called him, he just threw on a T shirt on the shorts he had on.He looked the most ridiculous dragging them and smiling like a lunatic. His mop hair was very much scattered but Elena still thought he looked pretty and cute.Raphael who had the keys, opened the little gate that was held by a short wooden fence.Ajax walked in first heading straight to the little garden space area with an extra bump in his steps.He could remember when his parents lived on one of the streets of West Virginia, his mum had
Ajax chuckled. “I like it when this dramatic playful crazy side of you comes out, Elena, but you need to calm down. I get it. You are excited. We all are excited too. Don’t you think it’s too early to throw a party?” Elena’s face fell so he retraced his words, counting his words carefully so he doesn’t say something that might upset her. “I mean we could throw the party when we have settled in but right now, we need to all calm down. Alright?”Elena huffed. “Fine. Kill joy.”“Okay.” Ajax said releasing a breath that he had no idea he had been holding in. “I got to go back home and get dressed. It is already late to go to work-”“Work!”“Work!”Both Raphael and Elena exclaimed.“-and I also need to go home because my gramps would be really worried if he woke up and did not see me-”“Gramps!”“Gramps?”“Yes gramps and Yea work. Come on- What did you two think I was doing before you guys called me? Laying on my bed and looking to the ceiling and letting time pass by?” He asked unbelieva
“Let’s party!” Ajax screamed loudly over the loud music as he climbed up on the table that was situated in the middle of the sitting room. Standing, he yelled again. “Woooohh!”“Elena. I think you should go and get your boyfriend.” A girl yelled over the loud music to Elena. She was dressed in a short leather skirt. Elena could swear that if she bent over at any angle higher than forty five degrees, her panties would be on display for everyone to see.“Let him have his fun Massie.” Elena responded turning to her with a smile. A sarcastic smile.They were having the house warming/ summer party in their new apartment and it was going extra great! The house was filled with people. Most of them which Elena did not know. Well, at least she knew about a handful of them.Her eyes turned back to watch Ajax as he popped a bottle of champagne and lifted it up and sprayed it carelessly it in the air. Bits of the drink splashed on him and went everywhere as everyone cheered and screamed.Elena la
Prior to these events, Ajax was taking a walk with Vaughn. The walk was a silent one. When Ajax had tried to start a conversation with him, Vaughn had hushed him to keep quiet.“Night walks are to be made in quietness. Just you and your thoughts. Admiring nature.” Vaughn had said.Ajax had nodded and glanced around.The street was quite calm. People returned back to their various homes from work. The hustle and bustling in the streets had died down. Most shops had turned their open sign around to show they were now closed. A cool breeze blew, causing yellow leaves that fell from trees during the summer to scatter around.It was the time of the evening when the sun set and there was just light for a very little while longer.As he walked, he inhaled the fresh air. The air felt alive, like it was breathing, as if summer itself had decided to hang on a few minutes more before coming back for good.They walked a long distance, taking in the sight of their surroundings. Feeding their ey
