For Life or Death

“The Fey that holds the Key








“The Fey that
holds the Key

Will
be cursed for eternity

Until he finds
his beloved

Every 3000 yrs
she will be reborn

The only way to
break the curse

Is to kill the
one that

Took
his life away.”

 

I guess that says it perfect. I’m supposed to wait
for that witch to be reborn and then I have to kill her. Since I didn’t
remember when did she die, I though I can start telling my story to the world
and hope that this was the right time.
Being a singer is the easiest thing I’ve done
since that horrible curse was cast. I
could search for her without worry for lack of money, and at the same time I
could do what I love the most-sing.

 

I went in front of the mirror and
sighed. The clothes I
was wearing were chosen by my manager.
As I said, the guy had it bad for me, so he
tried to get me every chance he can with my cloths off. Before he stopped to this outfit, he had gone
through five more. In the end, I
threatened him that if he doesn’t choose right the
way; I’ll make sure he regrets it. He
chose, all right.

 

I was wearing a blood red dress shirt,
which he made sure I don’t button up. My long hair was tied with a leather strip on my back and reached my waist. It used to be long to my ankles, but I had to
cut it to fit into the human standards.
Since my hair was also dark blood red color, it seemed as if my hair and
shirt were one. My black leather pants were really tight
and didn’t leave much to the imagination.
They were so tight; that a person can be 100 %; sure, there was nothing,
except me, under them. My eyes were the only thing that I couldn’t
do anything to. They looked like they
were a sky of yellow with green storm clouds, which were always moving. It was one of the things in me that weren’t changed by the curse. The whole outfit showed as much as it could
of my body. As I already said, the guy had it bad.

 

‘Why is he the one choosing my clothes?’ you
might ask. He is not only my manager,
but is also my dresser. I don’t have any taste in clothes. Not only that, but I wouldn’t
mind going without them at all. Fey don’t care much about them.
But then, if they were near somebody like my
manager, they’d rather be covert up.

 

Slowly I took off my shirt my skin had
light tan to it. With fey, that’s pretty rare.
Most of the time, we’re really pale. There was a knock on the door, and the handle
turned. I heard a curse and then more
knocking before I heard the angry voice of the person on the other side.

 

“Touya, why the hell did you lock the
door?!” I
smiled. I knew this voice too well.

“Isn’t it obvious?” I asked amused. ”It’s
to keep me in, and you out!” I
chuckled. I loved yanking his
chain. He was so much fun to tease.

“Why would you want to keep me out?” he
asked surprised and I rolled my eyes.

“Because, Sayo, you’re getting more
annoying by the day.” I was cranky now,
and that wasn’t a good sign. Slowly I went to the door and unlocked
it. On the other side was Sayo, staring
at me. He may be my manager, but he was
still pretty annoying sometimes.

 

I had to look up to see his face
fully. He was 6’ 5” while I was 5’
11”. His green eyes were at me. He was handsome, if I do say so myself. His blond, spiked up, hair was giving him a young, boyish
look. His two earrings on each earlobe didn’t help the picture.
He had on a black tuxedo that fit him perfectly, and made him look
really out of place. Imagine an 18 year
old with a goofy smile on and bunch of earrings, dressed in a tuxedo. Sayo is 27, and he looked like a
teenager. I was somewhat surprised,
though, he was so good at choosing clothes, but here he was standing looking totally
out of it.

“Sayo, why so
formal?” I asked curiously.

“You don’t like it?” He made two circles
for me to see him from each side.

“You look like a bad boy in his father’s
business suet.” I stated grumpily. He
cocked an eyebrow and looked me straight in the eye.

“Why so grumpy?” I shrugged and turned my back to him. Slowly I made my way back to the mirror and
picking up a green dress shirt from one of the chairs, I slipped into it. I felt the air movement behind me, and knew
Sayo had made his way into the room. The
sound of the door closing proved my suspicion.


 

I unzipped my pants, and heard Sayo take
in a breath. Before I was even able to
pull them an inch down, though, I felt Sayo’s hands on mine.

“Don’t!”
His voice was raspy as if he hasn’t used it in
a long time. ‘Or as though
he’s already hard.’ Came to my mind and I fought not to smile.

“If you don’t want to see, then don’t.” I
kept all emotion out of my face and voice, which wasn’t
hard at all.

“Please” He begged, but didn’t finish. I had
only one answer for him, tough, only one that will answer both unasked
questions.

“No!” I whispered. I heard him grow and then he removed his
hands. I saw his reflection turning
away. Slowly I pulled down my pants. My privates were chilled by
the cool air in the room. I stepped out of them and turned around. Sayo was in the other end of the room leaning
to the opposite wall, his back facing me.
I reached the chair that had my other pants on them and pulled them
on. They were dark green, almost black,
leather and the same style as the last ones.
I took the dark green baseball hat that was on the same chair and
putting my hair through the hole on the back, I put it on. Turning around, I measured the effect in the
mirror. The green was making my eyes
seem a little more normal. But my hair was standing out. ‘It’ll do.’
I tough to myself and turned to leave.

 

I was just about in front of the door,
when Sayo stepped in front of me. His
face was grim and he didn’t look very happy with
me. I looked him straight in the eye and
held his eyes.

“Is something wrong?” I still had the cold, unemotional voice.

“Why are you doing this?” He sounded sad, but it didn’t
faze me.

“I have no idea what you’re talking
about.” I wtilltill looking him straight
in the eye.

“Why do you always do this, when you know
that it’s hurting me?” If he was a fey,
I would have felt sorry, but he was a mere human.

“You’re my manager. That’s all. Nothing more, nothing less. If you don’t like
it, then leave. I’ll always be able to
find myself another one.” He moved as
if to touch me and I made a step back.
He winced and pulled back his hand.

“Do you hate me that much?” He was expecting my answer, but I didn’t felt like giving it to him. I tried to step around him, but he stepped in
front of me again.

“At least answer me that one
question. Why do you always pull away
like that? Do you hate the idea of my
touch that bad?” I looked up again and
attacked him with my eyes. Slowly and
almost in whisper I answered.

“You’re one of the humans. And they are not allowed to touch me.” This time I was able to step around him and
went out of the door.

 

I made my way to the side door where
Kauri, one of my bodyguards, was waiting.
He didn’t look much like a bodyguard in his
black leather pants, black dress shirt, and black baseball hat. His hair was long and his eyes beautiful,
both raven black. I once asked him why
he was wearing so bla black. His skin
looked too pale. ‘The blood does not
show as much.’ He had said. I guess that only proves how serious he was
about his work. When he saw me, he
opened the door and made a sign to his colleagues that I was coming out.

I stepped out and
Kauri stepped behind me. Slowly, I made
my way towards the limo. I felt Kauri
close behind me. There were journalists
everywhere trying to get t. I. I was
glad I had bodyguards to keep them at bay.
As I reached the limo, something caught my eye. I turned to my right and met the most
beautiful grey eyes I have ever seen.
They belonged to a guy about 18 y old old with
short spiked silver hair and pale skin.
He was about 5’ 8’’ and there was a magical pull to him. If I hadn’t killed
all of the fey, I would have said that he was one of us. He was staring at me with a dreamy
expression. I felt a hand on my shoulder
and turned.

“You ok, Touya?” It was Kauri.
He probably was wondering why I stopped moving all of a sudden.

“Yeah, I’m fine.” I got in the limo, and Kauri sat beside
me.

 

The limo started
moving and I turned to look at the boy with grey eyes. He was looking at the car and even though I
knew that the windows are too dark for him to see me, it felt like our eyes
met. He was holding my gaze and I felt
pulled by it. I just couldn’t
turn away. Then he turned away and
disappeared into the crowd.

 

Half an hour later, I
was in my house outside of Tokyo. Kauri was sitting on my couch and was
changing the channels of my big screen TV.
He was my bodyguard, but he was also my friend, and he lived with me. I met him few months before I heard the
prophecy. He saved me from some guy that tried to rape me.
Since then, he’s being acting as my
bodyguard. When I signed my contract, he
officially became my bodyguard. My house
is big, so there is more than enough space here.

 

“What’s for
dinner?” Since I wasn’t
really paying Kauri for his job, he depended on me for money, and I didn’t
really mind.

“You feel like fast
food?” I wanted something simple and
fast.

“Pizza is on. Cheese or Pepperoni?” He sounded like a kid that’s
about to get a big present. Kauri jumped
off the couch and ran for the phone.
“You have 30 seconds to decide, boy!
Choose now!” I just shrugged and
a big smile lit his face. “I choose
both!” He said and started ordering.

 

Twenty minutes later
the doorbell outside rang. Since I was
excessively popular, I couldn’t just go and open the
door my self. Almost nobody knew where I
lived, and I liked keeping it that way.
Kauri made his way to the door and I followed him. He was taking in the pizzas, but didn’t have hands to pay for them with. Therefore, I made my way to him to help him
out. The moment he moved enough for me
to see, I froze. There, on the door way
was standing the boy with grey eyes.
When he noticed me, his eyes widened.
He made as if to speak but he was obviously too stunned.

“Need help with
these?” Slowly I made my way to the door
and took the pizzas off Kauri’s hands.
He smiled at me.

“Thanks bud. You’re one step ahead of me, as always.” He turned around and went off to the living
room. “Be right back.” I smiled at the boy and made a step towards
him.

“You
all right?” I said but the boy continued star “Y “You want to come in? He’s probably going to take awhile.” I pulled back and slowly he made his way
in. He was wearing a red shirt and a
white jacket, but it looked like so much more.
When he passed by me, I smelled his aftershave. The scent pulled at something deep inside
me. I felt my pants getting tight and
knew that getting hard over something so small is not a good news.

At that moment, Kauri
made his way back. He looked desperate.

“Touya, have you seen
the money from the table?” The moment he
mentioned my name, the silver haired boy’s mouth opened but no sound came
out. “You feeling
ok kid?” Kauri put his hand on the boy’s
shoulder, and squeezed. “You want to sit
down?” He sounded serious.

 

“So, you really are
Touya.” The boy sounded surprised. “I can’t believe I finally get to meet
you.” He also sounded happy. I smiled and moved to the side, so Kauri won’t be able to see me being that hard for nothing.

“And who might you be,
then?” The kid’s eyes were shinning and
his smile was lightening his whole face.

“My name is Amada, Ryo
Amada...” He pulled up his hand waiting
for a handshake, but I left him hanging.
It wasn’t because he was human, but because I
knew that if I touch him, the feel of his skin on mine is probably going to
make my pants too tight to stand. Kauri bended over him and whispered in his ear. He was trying to say it loud enough so only
the boy would hear him, but my senses were stronger than mere human’s was.

“Don’t take it
personal kid. He doesn’t
like people touching him. Except
S...” My eyes widened and I interrupted
him.

“That’s enough
Kauri.” He just smiled at me and moved
away. I knew he was going to say
Sayo. He’s
being teasing me about him since he became my manager.

“So, you got any idea
where the money is?” He cocked his
eyebrow and smiled challenging me.

“If you get these
pizzas off my hands, I’ll find them for you.
Why did you have to order two of them any way?” He got the boxes and I moved towards the
kitchen. Once there, I found the money
on the counter. I made my way back and
came into view of Kauri kissing Ryo. The
pizzas were carefully laid on the floor and my
bodyguard was giving Ryo full taste of himself.
He had his hands around the boy but then I saw that his eyes were open
and he was looking at me.

“Sorry to
interrupt.” I tried to sound neutral,
but I couldn’t control my voice. I sounded as if somebody has stolen my
lollypop. Technically that’s
exactly what had happened. Slowly Kauri
moved away from Ryo and smiled.

“You’re not
interrupting anything.” He too sounded
as if he’s trying to restrain his voice. “Ryo, why
don’t you join us for dinner tomorrow?”
His hands were in fists beside him.
Ryo turned around and I saw him flushed bright red. His grey eyes were wide and unbelieving. I knew that Kauri was still challenging me,
so I played his game.

“Yeah, Ryo, why don’t
you join us tomorrow night?” I took off
my eyes from Kauri and looked straight at Ryo.
“If you’re not at work, that is.”
He blinked few times without answering.

“Is that really all
right?” He sounded so amused that I couldn’t help but smile.

“Sure.” I looked back at Kauri. “Kauri likes you, so
why not?” Kauri’s expression hardened
and I knew that I had probably said the wrong thing. I didn’t care much,
though.

“Yeah, I’ll be happy
to.” Said Ryo and smiled again. I handed him the money making sure that we didn’t touch.

“Why don’t you come
around 8:30? Dinner should be ready by then.” He nodded and went out on his way. I closed the door and turned around to find
Kauri staring daggers at me.

“What the hell was
that?” He asked and I stopped moving too
stunned by his question to answer.
“Kauri likes you so why not?” He
tried to mock copy my voice but it came out as angry yelling. “What the hell is wrong with you, man?” He was now in front of me and had his hands
on my shoulders.

“What’s wrong with me,
you’re the one kissing him and asking him to join us for dinner. I only agreed with you.” I had a disgusted look on my face. “What is it that’s wrong with me?”

“You know very well
why I did it.” He said and there was so much pain in his eyes that I had to look away. “You know very well that it makes me crazy to
know that I can’t touch you and here comes a kid that you don’t even know and
you get all hard and worked up for him.
How do you think that makes me feel?
I saw the way you were looking at him.
You wanted him bad. Don’t you
know that I would give anything to have you look at me that way?!” By now, he was
shaking me. ”Say something at least.” I
looked back at him.

“Take your hands off
of me.” My voice sounded as if it could
kill. Fear moved behind his eyes and he
moved his hands. I stepped around him
and picking up one of the pizzas, I made my way to my bedroom. I didn’t look back
the whole time.

Once there, I left the
pizza on my night stand and lay down on my bed.
There was no light here, but I didn’t need it
because there was nothing I was looking for.
Kauri had made moves on me few months after we became friends. I had made it very clear that I was not
interested. He hadn’t
pushed me since then, so I though it was a one time thing. True, Kauri was one of my few friends. Sometimes, I also felt attracted to him, but
as I said, I don’t mate with humans.

 

I guess that
contradicts with my actions. As he said, “Here came a boy that I didn’t even know and I got all
hard and worked up for him.” If I
hated humans that much, then why was I so attracted to Kauri and Ryo? In addition, why did I live with Kauri? My whole mind just didn’t
make sense. With thoughts like that, I
fell asleep.
