Home Log: Return From Alderres

[Shane Archer Mills]

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

After a whole day of staying is Alderres, Shane returned to to his home, took off his jacket and and fell on the sofa, pinching the bridge of his nose. He recalled all the events that led his to be this tired. He sighed as he stood up and went upstairs, to his bedroom for a shower. He took off his clothes and went straight to the showers. He let the water ran down and soak him.

First person he had run into was Alexander Torres. A smoker in hiding. It made Shane laugh as he recalled Alex saying that he was quitting. Good luck with that. Habits die hard, especially if he'd been doing it for a long time now. Not that Shane would have concluded that Alexander Torres had been smoking for a long time.No, he was just thinking that if Alex had not been smoking that long, quitting would be easy for him. Yes, quitting.

Next person he ran to, and saved was a Mackenzie Martin. Not much about him.Just the thought that he was in a relationship with a guy. Shane wasn't being a hypocrite. He couldn't. He gave head to someone before he passed the wall. Mack was someone, who in Shane's point of view, was not afraid to show who he was and who he was with. That was very admirable. And just like that Shane thought that Mack would eventually be great someday.

And last person he ran into and did more than just save or help, Ackley Lynch. Comparing to the first two, Ackley was by far the most interesting one he had met in Alderres. Shane began to soap himself as he recalled how Ackley had suddenly kissed him just after he helped fix his hair and took out the twigs in his clothes. Shane chuckled to himself. And after that kiss, he gave head and took Ackley right then and there. Normally, the one being taken would be mad and angry. But anger was not present in him. Shane wondered why.

He finished his shower and covered himself with a towel and left the bathroom. He looked out the sea as he towel dry his hair. What surprised Shane the most was that he wanted to see Ackley again. He had reasons: First, to help the guy learn what anger is. Seriously, Shane couldn't even feel a trace of anger in him. And second, it was a good cover for him. He'd be able to walk around the town better and scout closer since he will be with someone who is from the town itself. Yes, everything seemed perfect and Shane was glad of the very productive day he had. He couldn't have asked for anything more.

He grabbed a pair of boxers and sweat pants. He went over to his bed and turned off the lights. He wanted to rest and after today, he could already see himself heading to Alderres in a few days once again.

FIRST DAY SINCE BREE LEFT

Well truth be told, the house seemed bigger now. Shane looked around. It was nearly sunset and everything was quiet.He sighed as he took off his jacket and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner. He took out plates first and nearly took out two. "I forgot... She already left." he told himself. He sighed and went back to the kitchen. He placed the plate back and decided that he didn't want to have anything to eat. He grabbed a bottle of water and went out to the deck. It was peaceful, quiet, and cool. He sighed once again.

First, Bree's reaction to the event that had occurred was as Shane had thought: she regretted everything that had happened. Not that he could blame her. No, he could not. It was just that Shane should have said something to her. but he knew this was better. Yes, this was all better.

Second, Ackley. had been silent for a little while. Shane wondered if he was alright. Not that Shane was worried. It was just strange that not even a text or a call from him to hear if anything was up. He shook his head. He ought to keep himself in check. He was starting to be a little worried for the boy which should not be.

Third and lastly, everything was calming down. And for some reason, Shane didn't like the calmness of the season. Like something was brewing in the horizon. yes, Shane always felt this particular feeling when he was about to face either war or personal trouble. He just hoped that it didn't involved Ackley in anyway. Not even Alex. Because Shane would always choose his duty over his personal life.

Shane stood up and went back inside.He was tired and wanted rest. He took a quick shower and went to sleep. He just hoped that everything was going to go his way from this point on.
