His New Toy

Visiting

[Max's POV]

“Welcome to NICE” I mumbled the sign of the brightly coloured sign on the pristine iron gates “The National mental Institution for Clinical Excellence”

We pulled into the fancy car park the security guard quickly shutting the iron gates behind us. Once finding a spot to park the three of us climbed out examining the enormous building in front of us. It was a beautiful white and blue themed building with magnificent water fountains, paths and trees. As we walked closer towards the building I took note of the streams that ran past the paths it contained the tiniest Koi fish.

“This is where that son-of-a bitch is staying?” Erick glared at the building “It's a fucking 5 star Hotel!”

“I know you're angry son but you need to calm down” my dad nodded at Erick patting his back “What's been done has been done and don't you worry he'll get what's coming”

Erick nodded and sighed “You're right, thanks Mr. Evans”

My dad smiled “Call me Sam”

we walked inside the building where a security guard met us

“Visiting?” he asked politely

“Yeah” my dad answered. The balding security guard took out a clip board

“Names?”

“Sam and Max Evans and Erick Carter” my dad stated coolly. The security smiled and nodded running his pen down vertically down his clipboard before finally stopping

“Ah there you are and you are visiting...” he ran his pen horizontally across “One Mr Christopher Hayes?”

My dad smiled gritting his teeth “Yes...him”

The security guard nodded awkwardly “Okay well first, you're going to have to put all cell phones, cash, valuables, anything metal and anything that could cause harm in the trays provided on your left then you'll need to walk through the metal detectors once you've been cleared you'll need to wait in the holding area and someone will escort you to the visiting area.

“Wow high security huh?” my dad questioned

“Yes definitely, in a place like this it has to be” the security guard smiled “If you'll like to make your way now” he pointed to his left and we followed. The halls were completely empty the only thing that could be heard was the sound of our footsteps hitting the white marble floors.

When we got to the trays and the metal detectors there were two more security guards.

“Hello” the first guy smiled

“Yeah hi” my dad greeted back

“Would you all like to put your stuff in these trays?” we all did as the guy said and put our stuff in the trays

We took turns walking through the metal detectors my dad first then Erick but when I walked through the thing starting beeping “What?” I mumbled to myself feeling for anything I could of forgotten

“Don't worry kid” the security guard smiled “Just take a step back for me” I did as he said and took a step back. He picked up a hand held metal detector off a side table and began scanning me slowly from the bottom up. The thing began to beep when it got to my chest

“What the heck?” I muttered as I pulled on my top to look down it “Oh” I stated in realisation at what it was

“What have you got down there Max?” my dad asked from the other side

I pulled out the long silver chain and quickly took it off.

The security guard whistled as it dangled in my hand “Expensive piece of mental you've got there kid”

“Y-yeah” I smiled

Since Erick said I could shower with it on I had completely forgotten about it. I quickly flashed a Erick a glance he didn't say anything but nether the less he looked highly amused. I quickly put the dog chain in the tray and walked through. The detectors kept silent.

“All right” the guard grinned if you take a right once you reach the end of this hall you need to wait there till someone comes and gets you, most likely the doctor or therapist who is in charge of the patient you are coming to visit.

“Okay thanks sir” my dad smiled. We all took off in the direction the guard had pointed us out too and in no time we were sitting in the holding area. We sat down on these plastic chairs, my dad sitting inbetween us.

…...........................

After 15 minutes of waiting my dad started becoming impatient “I'm getting sick of this” he got up stretching his arms “I'm gonna get one of these guards to take me to the nearest coffee machine, if I see a vending machine would you guys want anything?”

“No thanks dad”

“I'm cool sir” Erick responded politely

as my dad turned to walk away I felt Erick get up, he moved to my dad's seat

we sat there in what was unbearable silence none of us saying a word

after what felt like an eternity of pin dropping silence Erick let out a loud sigh and bumped my shoulder “You're killing me here Max” he chuckled sadly

“Huh?” I mumbled hoping that would be the end of the conversation

“I know I've done something it doesn't take a genius to work that out”

“I already said you haven't done anything” I tried to give him my best smile but I failed miserably

“So why is the first time we've spoken since you walked off for reasons I still dont know?” Erick asked raising his eyebrow

I shrugged “I don't know can we drop it please?” I turned around to face the wall again

“This is why I make you ask for everything, so I can get some clue into what you're thinking”

I shrugged, he was making me feel bad and he didn't even know it

“Max.” Erick got up and knelt down in front of me his face riddle with hurt and guilt, making me feel worse. I'm the only one who's guilty of something.

Hurting his feelings

And kissing Darren

He clasped onto my hands like his life depended on it

“Is it something you want to tell me? I promise I won't get mad” he was looking straight into my eyes. I was scared that if he stared any longer he would see what I was hiding

My heart began to beat thunderously against my chest “W-what makes you uhm think that I have something to tell you?”

“I don't know Max” he dropped his head into my lap his voice now half muffled “I know you hate it when I say it but I'm going to say it anyway”

Oh God Erick don't. The butterflies emerged from my stomach and he hadn't even said anything yet. My face began heating up uncontrollably, why does he do these things to me? I looked up to the ceiling trying to keep myself seated so I didn't just bolt from my chair

“I love you Max, I really do- no one and I mean it no one has ever made me feel the way you do.” He sighed “You're just so...difficult” my eyes unwillingly gazed back down to him. He was staring back “So promise me Max you're okay? There's nothing you need to tell me?”

“No there's nothing” he nodded looking somewhat disappointed he rose to his feet and sat back next to me. I watched him as sadness took over his expressions

“I-I'm worried about- seeing Christopher again” I felt like I had to say something, something that wouldn't make him feel bad about himself and on the plus side I wasn't lying I was worried

He let out a small smile “That's it? That's why you've been off?”

“Yeah...I'm sorry”

“Don't be okay?” he engulfed me in a tight hug I wrapped my arms around his waist holding him just as tightly

“Finally managed to get my coffee” we quickly ripped our hands off each other and looked in the direction of the voice. My dad took a slow sip from his coffee and stared at us “What?”

“Nothing!” I half screamed

My dad stared at me like I was crazy “Okay...” He took a seat next to Erick and continued sipping his coffee “Is this doctor still not here?” he asked looking annoyed. He got no response. My heart was beating like mad: did he see us? I mean how long was he there for? My dad diverted his gaze to us probably wondering why we hadn't answered “You okay Erick, you like you've seen a ghost”

“Yes...I think so, are you okay sir?”

my dad sniggered “Why wouldn't I be?”

Erick let out a sigh of relief “No reason”

We continued to wait for the person who was going to pick us up. It was getting close to half and hour but in no time a middle aged woman appeared before us.

“Hello” she grinned “My name is Doctor Clarke and I'm Christopher's therapist” she shook all of hands before taking a seat opposite us.

“No Mrs Evans?” the Doctor asked looking at the three of us

“No she's sick” my dad smiled. Truth was mom didn't want to come. Simple as.

“Ah okay, that can't be helped, we'll just continue shall we?” we all nodded “Now I think I can guess this one easily” she pointed at me with her pen “You definitely must be Maxwell right?” she tucked one of her blonde hairs behind her ears.

“Yeah” I smiled uneasily

“Christopher really described you perfectly, you really are adorable as they say” she smiled, blissfully unaware of the hurricane tensing up next to me

“t-thanks” really unsure about what to say next

“No problem” she smiled “So you must be Erick then?”

“Yes” he responded blankly

My dad suddenly intervened “So Dr, how is this thing going to work exactly?”

she nodded “Of course” clearing her throat she began “Normally we have one visitor at a time but I must say Christopher is a new man completely I don't see why all three you can see him together.”

“Oh I'm not going to see him” my dad stated forcing a smile “Just here to support my son”

the woman nodded “I completely understand” she diverted her eyes back to me “I know what Christopher did was unforgivable but he truly wants to make amends but if you change your mind then I'll understand too”

“No, we'll go”

“Great, lets go” the lady stood and began to walk with me and Erick on her heels.

[Erick's POV]

We didn't walk long before the lady took us to two metal doors

she stopped turning around to face us “You alright?”

“Yep” I stated calmly, Max looked like he was shitting himself didn't blame him though

“Okay good, now understand that there are other people having friends and family over so you need to be calm and try and keep your voices down. Got it?”

“Got it” I smiled again Max didn't say anything. The lady walked through the doors with Me and Max following behind her.

She was right there were many people in the room spaced out on different tables, talking to family, friends or whatever. I looked out for him and I caught sight of him immediately. He was the only one on his own. He lifted his head up taking notice of us. He seemed almost...remorseful?

When we got to his table he never took his eyes off Max guilt riddling his whole being

Myself and Max took a seat opposite him.

“Well I'm going to leave you guys alone obviously you have things you need to tell each other and I know Christopher has a lot he needs to tell you” she patted Christopher's back and left.

There was about 2 minutes of intense glaring before anyone spoke and when someone did it was Chris

“Well...Long time no see huh guys” he clapped his hands together rubbing them enthusiastically grinning,

“They told me you had changed, I knew it was too good to be true” I glared at the piece of lowlife in front of me. He ran a hand through his messy blonde hair sighing

“Are you just always angry Erick?” he smiled still watching Max, who was staring at his lap

“Only when I'm around you” I replied quickly

“Hmm” was his only response still eyeing Max with hungry eyes

“How about you look at me for a change?” I was getting angrier by the minute, I hated the way he was looking at Max like he was a piece of meat

“Nah I'm good” he grinned “Max you look so scared...are you okay” he stretched out his hand to try to hold onto Max's but I quickly pulled his back so I was the one hold onto them

“Someone's possessive huh?” he chuckled darkly “If only you were this quick that night” I felt Max flinch

“I would shut up if I was you” I growled “The minute you come out I'm going to make sure they send you back and to prison this time”

“No can do amigo. According to the state of America I am what they call 'mentally unfit' I had no control of my body or mind when those events happened, what a shame” he rubbed his white sleeve before continuing “In about 1 year and 11 months I will be allowed out of here if I don't seem like I'm crazy and you know the first thing I'm going to do?” he leant over the table so he was right in Max's face whispering darkly “I'm coming for you Maxie, you know finished what we started” he sat back in his seat laughing madly

I rub my left temple tightly. All of a sudden it began to throb badly.

“You okay there?” Chris asked laughter in his voice

“Shut up”

“Seriously dude you need to lighten up” he sighed contently again “So about we get down to business now?”

“None of us said anything” Chris grinned “I'm supposed to get everything out in the open so I can get rid of-” he sighed dramatically “What's that word again?” he pretended to think about it pissing me off by the second

“That's right guilt” he was looking at the both of us now

“You killed my girlfriend Erick, you greedy son-of- a bitch and in return I tried to kill Max but I thought I would add my own little twist in it so I raped him and let me tell you this Max I still get chills thinking about it”

“that's enough” Max whispered, tears daring to spill from his eyes

“The way you screamed my name begging me to stop” he licked his lips ever so slowly

“He said it was enough!” I half screamed, earning some curious looks from other people

“The cute little struggle you put up as I entered inside of you” his eyes were closed as if he was truly reminiscing.

“Why are you doing this?” Max whimpered he was staring at Chris whose eyes were still closed

“I know those loud cries you made were cries of pleasure”

Max got up from his seat his face red with tears flowing freely “Let's go Erick”

“The sweet scent of your blood as I penetrated you harder”

“You are one sick kid” I stood up from my seat livid

I grabbed Max's hands as we began to walk away

“The look of utter despair on your face when you realised Erick wasn't going to save you those seconds before I entered you”

That was the one that set me off.

The statement that hurt me the most.

Maybe because it was true.

I couldn't save him.

I quickly stopped in my tracks. My whole body totally dominated by anger. Max pulled tightly on my hand “Just ignore him Erick, let's just go” I watched Max's wet face, I did that to him. I freed my hand from Max's

“I'm sorry Max” his cute little face crumpled in confusion

“What are you talking about?”

I quickly spun around not answering, taking note of the four security guards in each corner of the big room. We were right in the middle so I had time. I stomped over to him. Jumping over the table that once separated us in one swift movement and punched him so hard I felt the skin of my flesh split. He went flying off his seat and in seconds everyone was screaming and running around. I picked him up and threw him on the ground again my other fist landing cleanly on his face. He cough out a mouthful of blood. Glaring at me with pure hated. I returned the look.

He pushed me off so I fell awkwardly on my back and he jumped on top of me punching me- wasn't as hard as what I dealt him but it still fucking hurt

“Erick you're gonna get it trouble!” Max screamed about to try and pull me off but a security guard held him back. I saw the other three trying to control the crowd of crazy people and their families.

I elbowed Chris in the face causing him to screech out in pain. He clutched onto his bloody face. He stood up and kicked me in my ribs. I shouted as I felt them burn within me. I dodged his other kick by quickly rolling away and kneed him in his stomach causing him to double over and kneed him again in his face. I heard a satisfying crack as my knee made contact with his nose.

“YOU BROKE MY FUCKING NOSE!” he was livid and he was breathing heavily

I laughed whole heartedly amongst the madness “That's the least you should be worried about, I'm going to kill you” I grinned about to grab a chair next to me when I felt a unnatural weight on my back trying to restrain me. It was a security guard. I punch the fat man off me- he was out cold. It wasn't even half of what I gave Chris but I shrugged some people are just pathetic.

When I turned around to face Chris he was charging at me like a crazy bull. He grabbed onto my waist and rammed me against a wall. I felt all the air leave my body and for that second in which I was breathless Chris punched me and began to repeatedly kick my stomach in. I grabbed onto his leg and pulled him down so he fell with a loud thump. I quickly scrambled to my feet and began to back away so I could catch my breath. In that time he also got up, the thick blood oozing off his face and one of his eyes were bruised shut.

“COME AT ME THEN!” He screamed banging his chest

“All you had to do was ask” I smiled running towards him at full speed. His body was in attack mode ready to counter my next move. But what he wasn't expecting was me grabbing a plastic chair with metal legs on my way and smacked it across his face. He was out cold even before his body hit the ground. Hopefully he was dead.

I watched him carefully his face was unrecognisable.

“Damn it!” I hissed. His chest rose up evenly before going back down again. This bitch was still alive I smacked the chair on a table so it shattered into many pieces. All that was left in my hand was was one of the metal legs which I was more than prepared to drive through his forehead. I wasn't letting him come out in a year and go after Max again.

I lifted the leg high above my head. People still running madly around the room. More security guards had rushed into the room. I was running out of time

“ERICK NO!”

The room was in total chaos but I recognised the voice and found the beautiful face that belonged to it. He was struggling in the guards hold trying to get to me

“DON'T DO IT! PLEASE ERICK!” he shook his head at me “Don't” he whispered. The noise in the room was insane but somehow I managed to hear it.

I dropped the pole on the floor, it landed with a loud clash. In that moment 4 maybe 5 security guards jumped me rushing me to the ground. One of them putting me in handcuffs

“Get the other one and put them in the holding room!” this looked like the chief guard “And get this boy to a hospital!”

I was pulled up roughly by a guard as me and Max were taken into a holding room. Max's dad had to wait outside the room

….........[3 hours later].............

“We will be seeing you in court Mr. Carter if Mr. Hayes decides to press charges. Which I'm sure he will” This was Dr. Hendrickson the person in charge of the institute. He was a youngish looking man maybe 35? I didn't know what it was about him but he reminded me of my dad. We were now outside in the parking lot outside the institution. After being questioned millions of times we were let go.

“You're behaviour was completely out of order” Dr. Clarke scowled. I had the urge to slap this woman, but that's something I just don't do.

“Whatever” I mumbled as I rubbed my bandaged fist

“Not only that you'll all be receiving a fine from us for the damages you have created and if you decide not to pay it then we'll be taking you to court” Dr. Clarke continued

An awkward silence loomed in the air as we all glared at them. Dr. Hendrickson cleared his throat “Well thank you for visiting” he stretched out his hand for my dad to shake, he stared at it for the longest time before walking away. I sniggered and walked away also. Max was the last to follow.

Max's dad sighed I was prepared for the shouting to come “Make him bleed?” he didn't look at me when he asked me this

I was surprised by his question but answered anyway “Y-Yeah”

“Excellent” he brought out his hand for me to high five which I responded to happily. I chuckled Max's father was a mysterious man.

When we walked to the car, Max tried to open the back door but it didn't budge “Uh Dad you haven't unlocked the car”Max was back to normal now, I thought he would resent me after the way I acted but he seemed fine.

Max's dad turned around to face the pair of us, watching us very closely “What's going on between you two?”

[Max's POV]

“What's going on between you two?”

My eyes opened in shock, what did he mean by that?

“What are you talking about Dad?” I chuckled lightly hoping he was talking about what I think he was

“You guys...” he looked away putting a finger of chin. My dad wasn't much of a talker but damn it did he take notice of everything. Erick looked just as stunned as I did. I looked at him for help whilst my dad wasn't looking but Erick just shrugged helpless.

“I can't put my finger on it” he was staring at me now “What is exactly the status of your relationship?”

“Status?” I questioned dumbly

“I saw you guys hugging earlier. It wasn't like how men hug when your favourite team scores a goal it was different”

Fuck! He did see that

“You guys are just friends right?” my dad asked raising his eyebrow

“Not exactly” I mumbled. I now felt Erick boring his eyes into me

“No?” he responded calmly

“No sir” I muttered

“OK!” he grinned turning around fumbling into his pockets looking for his car keys

I looked at Erick bewildered “What the fuck?” Erick mouthed to me. I shrugged not understanding my dad's actions either

“Er dad aren't you going to ask me what I meant or something?” I don't know why I was pushing this but I was sure as hell curious as to why he dropped the conversation,

“Nope” he replied quickly popping the p. He was still facing away from us looking for his keys “So many damn pockets!”

“Dad?”

“Son” he chuckled shaking his head as he looked for his keys “Whatever you're going to say next I do not want to hear it”

I knew he knew now but I had to say it to make it official “I'm gay and I'm going out with Erick” I stated nervously curious about his reaction.

“Damn it Maxwell!!” he kicked the side of his car quickly facing me, he didn't look angry just annoyed?

“I'm sorry” my head fell, why did I think he was going to be okay with this?

“You know what this means now!? Now that you've told me!?”

I looked up at him shaking my head “no”

“it means now that you've told me, I'm obliged to tell my mom!” he grabbed his head dramatically and shook it like a crazy person. I literally had to hold in my laughter.

“I'm sorry” I smiled

“Why are you smiling!?” he laughed “Oh God help us now”

“We don't have to tell her yet” I suggested

“We!?” he laughed “You mean you don't have to tell her yet and I agree but you what else you're going to do?”

“What?” I questioned smiling at Erick who was grinning

“When you do decide to tell her make sure I'm there and I'm going to act surprise maybe throw a pillow or something in my rage okay? Make your mother happy”

I laughed “Okay deal” we shook hands smiling “I can't believe you're okay with this”

My dad scoffed “Why wouldn't I be okay? I mean you're happy, And you'll still follow me to my Lakers games twice a year right?”

“Of course”

“So then I personally don't see the problem with it. I guess you can call me one of those New generation dads huh?”

“Yeah definitely” I smiled. I loved my dad so much. I only wish my mom would be this understanding but I knew that was never going to happen. My dad opened his arms and I hugged him tightly

“Room for one more Erick?”

“Erm...okay?” I felt Erick's presence behind me as he hugged us. Anyone watching us would have been thinking we were crazy bunch of people but right now I couldn't be happier.

[Erick's POV]

Ok That was weird.

I mean weird doesn't even begin to describe it

I even feel weird.

But weird in a good way without a doubt. Despite the three way hug that just occurred today has been a rather good day.

I knew Max's dad was cool but I seriously underestimated him. I have a new surge of respect for him that no one could take away now.

Me and Max were both sitting in the back. The radio was blaring really loudly with Max's dad singing along with it. He was truly okay about us.

I looked over at Max who was being distant again looking out of the window.

“Hey” I whispered in his ear

He looked at me smiling “Yeah?”

“What are you doing tomorrow?”

“Saturday?”

“Yeah Saturday”

“Well I'm supposed to be hanging out with the twins tomorrow” I rolled my eyes

“Cancel. I want you to meet some people tomorrow”

“Who?”

“Surprise”

“Surprise?”

“Yeah”

“I hate surprises”

“No you don't”

“Yes I do”

I looked at him mildly shocked “Since when?”

“Okay I don't. I just want to know”

I chuckled “Come to my house tomorrow and you'll see”

“Who's going to drop me?”

“Drive” I stated as if it was the most obvious thing in the world

He lifted up his hand which was in a cast

“That's your left hand, you're right-handed”

“Parents won't let me”

I nodded, that was understandable “I will get a driver to pick you up”

“No! That's embarrassing”

“Seriously Max!?” I was getting annoyed now

“Seriously, Why can't you pick me up?”

“Because I can't”

“Well, we tried” he shrugged looking out of his window. Was he purposely avoiding coming to my house.

“Hey wait. Why don't you get those clones to drop you”

“so I should cancel on them but still get them to drop me?”

I huffed wanting to give up “Call them” Max took out his phone and dialled the number giving the phone to me. A small smile on his lips as he watched me with full curiosity.

After 4 rings someone picked up “Hello, Max?”

“No it's Erick, Serenity?”

“No Trinity” she responded rudely

“Don't care” I replied just as rudely. I turned to Max “Why did you give me the annoying twin”

He smiled scolding me with his eyes “I heard that you prick!” the voice on the phone shouted

“Wasn't a secret, You think I don't know you were the one who finished my orange juice when you came to my house?” there was silence on the phone before a loud burst of giggles, even Max was laughing too. I couldn't help the small smile appear on my face either

When she had finished she spoke “Ok so what do you want?”

“I need you to drop Max at my house tomorrow morning”

“No way he's hanging out with us” I rolled my eyes as if I cared

“Who is that?” it was another voice in the background most likely her sister

“Max's douchebag of a boyfriend”

Her sister giggled “What does he want?”

“He wants us to drop Max at his house tomorrow”

“No way he's hanging out with us tomorrow!”

“That's exactly what I said”

Trinity was now speaking to me “Sorry, no can do”

“No, you can do”

“Max is coming with us to the mall tomorrow while drool over the boys that work at Hollister” I shot Max a look

“What!?” he looked at me as if I was crazy. I turned my attention back to the conversation

“Okay, what do you want?”

There was silence on the other line I knew they were talking about it

“We want to go a spa” Trinity replied

'And not just any Spa. We want to go to the Golden Falls” Serenity shouted in the background.

I knew that place but it wasn't the easiest of places to get into

“Are you crazy?” you need to book reservations 3 months in advance

“Oh come on Erick, You know you can get us in if you really wanted too” I sighed knowing this was true

“Fine”

They were squealing and screaming but it came to a sudden halt “Wait is Max ok with that?”

I smiled “Yeah he'll be fine”

“You're going through a lot to get Max to come to your house”

“Yeah, well I really want him to meet a couple of people” I hung up not bothering to hear their reply and threw the phone back to Max, who was watching me with curious eyes.

“I'm nervous now”

I chuckled “You should be”
