Chapter 4
After I knew that I was fully clean, I walked out with a towel wrapped around my body. What I didn't count on was for that guy to still be sitting there on the bed.
"Why are you just sitting there?" I yelled at him, pressing the towel closer to my body. He continued too stare, not making any signs of moving. I eventually got fed up with this and grabbed the clothes laying on the bed. I walked back to the bathroom and slammed the door again.
"Stop slamming the damn door!" He yelled at me. I rolled my eyes and continued to dress. Once done, I looked in the cupboards for an extra toothbrush. I successfully do and make use of it. Once finished, I open the door and make my way into the room once again. And of course he is still sitting there.
What is wrong with this guy?
"Finally. You human's take forever." He says in annoyance before standing up and walking out the bedroom door.
Did he just say human? Isn't he one as well?
"Hurry up!" He suddenly yells out to me. I sigh and make my way out the room, seeing him waiting impatiently by the staircase. As I look around us, I can tell that he's extremely rich. I've never understood why people want to live in such big houses. If I had a choice I'd want a small house that just shouts 'Home', this place only shouts the opposites.
We finally reach the bottom of the stairs and he leads me into another room. As I walk through the archway I see that it's the kitchen. Just this one small room is already huge! It's a modern styled kitchen, with high-tech appliances everywhere. Maybe before I leave I can 'borrow' some money and valuables. I sit down on the barstool and watch him as he takes something out the oven. He dishes the food up then places it in front of me. He sets out another two plates before sitting down himself.
"Charon! Dinner's ready!" He yells out then proceeds to eat his food. When he's almost completely done another man walks in. I recognize him as the one who made me fall asleep. I still have no idea how, but I intend to find out. He sits down at his spot and looks at the food curiously.
"This again? Why can't you learn to cook something else?" He, Charon, whines as he begins to pick at his food. The other one glares in his direction, slamming his fork down.
"Why don't you learn to cook, huh?" He yells then storms out of the kitchen. I watch him leave then continue to eat my food, slowly. I don't know why Charon's complaining, it's really good.
"So who you?" I suddenly hear Charon ask. I stop mid-chew and look up at him. I admit he is quite good-looking with his chocolaty brown hair and stormy grey eyes.
"Dion." I mumble, looking down at my food. Usually people never intimidated me but these two men did. The taller one more so.
"Alright Dion. Well I'm Charon and the idiot who walked out was Cerberus. Don't mind him, he's just a hot head." I nodded my head, looking at him curiously.
"Your name's seem familiar." I say to which he rolls his eye's and chuckles sarcastically.
"Well duh, what did you expect?" I raise my brow at him questioningly as he continues to go on and on about people wanting to be them. I let him continue his ranting and when he's finally done I stare at him, as if he's in insane.
"Sorry to burst your bubble, but I have no clue who you are." I say to which his eyes widen.
"You're kidding right? You honestly have no idea who Cerberus and I, are?" I just shake my head, really not having a clue. His shock then suddenly turns to delite as he jumps up and wraps his arms around me.
"Finally!" He yells in my ear, making me wince at his loud booming voice.
"Put me down!" I yell at him as I try to elbow him in the abdomen. I cry out in pain as the hit effects me more so than him. He didn't even flinch!
"Shit, are you okay?" He says worriedly, setting me on my feet while trying to examine my elbow. I pull it away from his grasp and begin to rub it soothingly.
"I'm fine, nothing's broken." I say and sit down at the table again. He looks at me curiously before sitting across from me. He says nothing at all, just continues to stare. What is it with these two and staring? I clear my throat and begin to take the dishes away. I place them in the basin and begin to clean them. It's the least I can do for their...hospitality?
"You're a very strange human." I hear Charon mumble from behind me. I turn to face him, ready to question why he called me human, as if he weren't, when all of a sudden he jumped from his seat and ran out the kitchen.
"Shit I'm late for work!"
I roll my eyes and continue to finish up the dishes. Once done, I find the spots they belong and put them away. I sigh and walk out the kitchen, having no idea where to go. I see the front door and shrug, what's a little fresh air gonna do? I walk towards it and turn the handle. Walking out I close my eyes, loving the outdoors. Sure it's not the forrest, someplace I'd like to be but, it's nice for now. I still need to find out where the hell I am?
"What are you doing out here?" I hear a yell from behind me before I'm being dragged back into the house. I yelp as the person pushes me roughly into the living room, causing me to fall. I groan at the impact but sit up, looking at the abuser. I roll my eyes when I see it's Mr. Hot-Head. He glares down at me, with a sneer present on his handsome features.
"You can't leave this house without me or Charon. Do you understand that human?"
"What is with you calling me human all the time? If you hadn't noticed, we're all human!" I yell at him, stepping closer with each word till I'm right in his face. Well, his chest. He looks down at me with the most hateful glare a person could muster.
"I'd never be one of you. I'd rather die than be a monster." He spits out, snarling everyword. My glare intensifies and that seems to stun him for a moment. It doesn't last long before he's back to glarring. He then grabs my arm and starts to lead me out the house, towards the back yard.
"Where are we going!" I yell at him while trying to pull away from him, but he has a firm grip around my arm.
"I'm taking you back to the Surface."
"What are you talking 'bout!"
"We're under the Earth, hense the name Underworld."
And with those words muttered, I passed out.
