The Bronco

Athav's second job, a two story red brick building, even from the outside you can hear people yelling and cheering. Loud rock music played, red neon lights Spell out the name of the place above the main door, most of the people going in look very tough and some of the people comming out look quite broken some even pissed.

Athav walked inside her heart heavy, but was kindly greeted by a mass of people standing around a bar and a large cage with a mechanical bull in it. She smiled best she could and let herself into the cage locking it behind her. She looked to see who was running the bull and smiled at her employer. She waved at him and mounted the machine. She held up three fingers as one hand took hold of the red eyed bull's saddle with the other hand. The song "Hit me with your best shot" by Pat Benatar began to play as her employer did just that, trying to toss the girl from the bull, men hooted and hollered as she held on easily.

After a shot lived ride due to the owner giving up, Athav sat on the bull and flipped open her cell phone calling home.

Zexu walked into the bar, shoving a few people out of the way in a desperate attempt to get to Athav a bit faster so they could talk. He was shoved back and it caused him to growl and lash out, gashing the male across the cheek and sending him in a slight frenzy of grabbign his face and whining out, trying to get away from the two twin males. When Zexu spotted her his spread his wings and flew into the ring with the mechanical bull in it, his arms quickly wrapping around her body when he landed down next to the hand crafted beast. "Atty... Please, don't be mad at me.." He whimpered out quietly, the blood on his claws spearing onto her shirt.

Athav gasped softly tossing her hat from her head and slidding off the bull clinging to him. "Zexu." She looked at him. "What's going on?"

"Don't be mad at him." He said once more, nuzzling his head into her neck and wrapping his wings around the both of them.

"I-I'm not mad, Really...Where's Alex?" She tried to look around abit worried the crowd would trample him.

As if on queue, Alex jumped over the gate and leaned back against it, giving her a slight salute with his index finger and smiling a bit. "Yo."

Zexu looked over his shoulder ayt the blonde and sighed quietly, a small frown on his face. "He's right there, Athav..."

Athav wrapped her arms around Zexu and buried her face in the crook of his neck as if trying to hide her face now, she sniffled.

"Don't worry.. I'm right here Atty." He said in a soothing voice into her ear. "If it'll make you feel better, I'll get on the bull and you can buck me off and make me hit Alex... Would that make you feel better?" He asked before kissing her temple softly.

"No...I have a better idea..." She pulled back and grabbed her hat. "I think maybe Alex should know what he missed...Move back or you'll get hit." She held on with one hand and gave the signal to her boss, he fired up the bull and tried everything to knock her from it but she stayed planted using her legs and rolling her slender form.

Zexu watched, a small smile on his face and a slight shudder going through his body. "Mm... This woman wants to be raped, a suppose.." He thought aloud mainly to himself. He walked over to the gate and jumped up, sitting dcown on it comfortably. His wings drew a bit of attention but all he did was smack a few of the people with them to shoo them away.

Alexander frowned a bit, knowing she was still bad and upset and just trying to make him admit he wanted her badly. He jumped up onto the gate as well and sat down, crossing his legs and keeping balance easily.

She looked at Alex sexily tossing her hat at him, then looking at her boss. "Come on you can do better than that!" She let go only using her legs to hold onto the raging bull

Zexu smiled over at Alex who had caught the hat then threw it down. The black-haired-male stood on the gate and began to walk over to her boss, a small hum coming from his throat. His wings began to vibrate a bit and send of a light glow from the lights and a low humming. He got down into the box where her manager was and leaned back against the wall, smirking a bit. "Hurt her and you're gonna get it."

"Zexu! Down boy!" Athav smirked as the manager stopped trying to buck her from the machine. She hugged the bull stitting in a innocent pose with a not so innocent look on her face.

Zexu sighed softly and pushed the manager out of the way of the controls, sitting down in his seat and looking out at Athav. "Ready?" He asked, looking down at the controls now as he analyzed the device.

"Bring it baby cakes." Athav sat up holding on with one hand. She grinned widely. "Go ahead."

He sent her a kiss and began to thrust the bull about, a small grin on his face. "Don't make me come out there, lover. Alex, go on."

Alexander smiled and got off of the gate, spreading out his wings and flying over to the bull. He sat down on it behind her and began to tickle her, purring quietly.

Athav leaned back against Alex and purred. "I ain't letting go sexy..." She licked his neck.

"You'll let go or else you'll be having sex infront of all these people, beautiful." Alexander purred into her ear, his hands sliding up her shirt sides as he kissed her neck.

"sorry I'm not going to do anything without Zexu too." Athav said, smirking and leaning back just right so that the next buck would push Alex off the bull.

"You're a cruel bitch." Alexander said harsly after he was thrown off, standing himslef up and dusting his pants off. "I'm out of here, have fun." He said over his shoulder, spreading his wings and flying off to the door. He exited into the streets of neontopia and flew off.

Zexu stopped the bull's bucking and watched him leave, a small frown on his face. "What did you say to him?" He asked, turning his head and looking over at Athav.

"That I wouldn't do anything without you too..." Athav sighed and walked out of the caged in area walking out of the back door

"Athav." Zexu called, hurrying along after her. "Listen. Just because I have my own body now does not mean that we all need to be together twenty-four seven. We don't need to do everything together..." He said once they were both out of the back door.

"But I don't think it's fair not include one of us on something, I love you both the same and I want to treat you both the same..." Athav sunk down against the wall and burried her face in hr knees. "He called me a cruel bitch...I'm cruel?"

"Atty...." He said softly, kneeling down next to her and bringing her into his arms. "I'm sorry.. No, you're not cruel.. I swear.. He's just.. I don't know.. I can't feel his feelings anymore so I don't know what he's feeling."

"why am I the one getting the bad end of this? I didn't do anything wrong. Athav curled into him her wings curling around her gently. "I- I should go find him..."

"No, if I know one thing about Alex it's that he loves when people run after him.. No give him the pleasure.. You shouldn't have to sink so low as you running after him anyways." He kissed her forehead and rubbed the back of her head, sighing softly.

Athav sighed softly. "What went wrong, everything was so perfect..." Tears finaaly began to come forward not being able to be held in anymore.

"..Me..." He said slowly and hesitantly, a frown coming to his face. "I am what went wrong with you two.. If I would've.. I should've just left after I got my own body..."

Athav slapped his face hard. "Don't say that! It's not true! I would be very sad if you left..."

He held his face and looked down at the ground, a small frown still on his face. "But it's true... "

"No, it's not!" she hit his shoulder. "Stop saying that!" Tears streamed her face now.

"You don't want to admit it but it is true Athav. Stop saying it is not when you know it is!" He exclaimed, looking down at her now and holding her shoulders with his hands.

"It's not true!" Athav lowered her head and shook. "it's not..."

"I'm not in \denial so why are you?" He asked, pulling her back by her shoulders and staring into her eyes,

"Because I love you and I dont' think it's true." Athav said closing her eyes so that the tears left them, allowing her to look at him clearly.

He let out a slow sigh and wrapped his arms around her once more, kissing her on her forehead and craddling her.

"Zexu? You won't leave me...will you?" Athav whispered softly holding onto him as if afraid he'd drop her on the spot.

"No, because that would mean I am a quitter.." He said in a soothing tone.

"Thank you..." Athav leaned up and kissed his lips gently. "I love you, Zexu."

"I love you too Atty." He said, nuzzling into her neck and purring quietly.

Athavnuzzled him kissing his forehead, she looked at him looking into his blue eyes. "Zexu? Take me home...please?"

"Of course Athav." He said softly, kissing her forehead one last time before standing up with her in his arms. He held her close to his form and began to lift off into the sky, his gaze drifting back down to the building however. "Don't you have to... Nevemrind." He said as he escaped the compressed ally way and headed off to Athav's House.
