From Friend To Mate novel Chapter 32

Felix still didn't patch things up with his mum. He tried but she wanted nothing to do with him. In fact, she found herself another man and totally forgot about him. It weas ok though he was free to be whoever he wanted this way though.

"Felix." Rebecca said dragging her voice out more as she pleaded with the boy. "Please. Enjoy yourself with me." She said while shoving a drink into his hands.

Flex looked down at the brown residue that lay inside the red solo cup. He titled his head gulping it down all in one go before giving Rebecca a smile that matched her own. He got up from the stall he once sat in and dragged Rebecca out on to the dancefloor.

The music was blasting everywhere, and Felix began to let go more. The drink helped. he began taking drinks from anyone at this point left and right and he didn't care.

Rebecca told him that this was the only time Thomas would let her come out to a place like this.

Across the street a car parked. It had pitched black windows and a shiny layer on top of it. It looked like it was made out of money. Looking at it was blinding and what was even more blinding was the man who stepped out.

He was huge.

And covered in tattoos.

He no longer had a what was left of a friendly face instead his face was completely stone straight without any sign of emotions in them. his once brown coloured eyes were now pitch black.

Taking slow and calculated steps he walked towards the club which almost shivered from his gaze. His nostrils flared as he smelt him. He smelt his boy. Or man should I say.

It's been long enough he thought as the crowd in the club instantly parted way for him. He had no trouble directing where he needed to go. The smell was strong enough. Step by step it got stronger and stronger until he reached him. Felix stared up at the man his eyes wide.

he looked so different, but Felix knew. He always knew.

He didn't have time to process any thoughts before his wrist was gripped in a tight hold. He yelped looking around the dancehall for help. Nobody moved though.

As if everybody became stone from his looks.

Rebecca saw what was happening from afar and immediately rushed to the situation, but she recognised the man as well.

She tried stepping forwards, but another hand grabbed her arm. Tight. She wheezed looking up at who it was. Thomas. he whispered in her ear before dragging her away.

Further away from Felix. They both gave each other a shocked look.

Who would've thought?

Not them.

Further away from Felix. They both gave each other a shocked look.

Not them.

Why am I still in this damn car?

Deep down he knew exactly why.

It was because no matter what happened there was always this connection between Jason and him.

Something that couldn't be severed.

And deep down he always thought that there was good reason that Jason left him for. He wanted to know what it was.

Felix could sense the mood in the car had softened. It was no longer tense and scary but more of a quite hesitant one. Both of the men had so much to say yet this moment when they were alone together after three years of void. Nothing could leave their lips.

Until now.

"We're here." Jason said.

Felix noticed how his voice was deeper, his face was colder and more expressionless a bit like his father.

Although everything willed Felix to just submit to the bigger man next to him he couldn't. He couldn't just bend to his will not after everything happened.

"Where are we?" he asked. Felix, just like Jason had gained a deeper voice and some height.
