The petite boy stepped off the stage and walked slowly to the man,the only source of clothing he wore was a pair of shorts that were to short and a raggy ripped up t-shirt he stumbled to Jackson and bowed lightly infront of him

"I hope to please you well master"

Jackson felt his heartbreak but he knew if he didn't play along they would kill Mi Bum,he placed his hand on his cheek and looked into his eyes

"I hope you do well for the money you are worth"

Mi Bum's eyes shifted up looking at the brown obs before him they were soft nothing like the other master's from before

Jackson grabbed the younger boy by the arm and pulled him behind him hearing him gasp in surprise, they arrived at a motel grimlin's lining up from left to right to see the halfbreed

Grimlin's are far from demons unlike halfbreed's or demons themselves lets just say they were the afterlife of demon's they were the rulers of the kingdom not even satan himself wanted any kind of them.

"One room for a night please"

Jackson said to the front desk clerk his apperance not being the eyecatch of Jackson's day

"Looks like the only room we have available is the honeymoon sweet"

Jackson knew what he was doing he thought he was going to have with the scared boy behind him trembling at the sight of the man in front of them

"And it seem's your little lady friend their would want that room"

he smiled a gummy smile the smile leaving Jackson disgusted he had looked as if he hadn't brushed his teeth in centuries

"That's fine we will take it"

The man didn't take his eye off the innocent boy as he rang up their room and handed them their keys

"Room 116"

he rubbed his nose and Jackson took their room key pulling the boy behind him once more until they arrived at their room he put the key in the key hole and turned the nob stepping into the room following the boy when the door closed Mi Bum stood still darkness filling the room before a little light began to shine.

Jackson flicked on the light and sat on the bed rubbing his hand through his hair before he shifted his vision to the boy that stood a few inches from him

"Take a seat I don't bite"

the boy shook his head and listened to the command sitting next to the taller boy

"Please make this quick Mr"

Mi Bum said quietly as he began to remove his shirt exposing his abused body the purpleish blueish marks above his s and on his rib sides he looked as if he had been beaten,Jackson quickly got up from the bed grabbing the blanket that hung on the edge of the heart shaped bed and wrapped it around his skinny,pale,petite body hugging him

"I'm not here to have with you Mi Bum"

he held the boy close to him and felt the tears begin to sting his eyes

"I thought id never see you again"

Mi Bum clueless of who this boy was but whoever he was he made him feel safe,Mi Bum nuzzled his face into Jackson's neck for once he felt loved.

Jackson watched Mi Bum drink on the packet of blood he found in the fridge as he just stared

"So how do you know my real name?"

Mi Bum said as he whipped the blood of the side of his mouth and looked at Jackson who had a blank expression on his face

"We grew up together"

Jackson pulled his leg up to his chest and rested his head on it

"As lovers?"

"As brothers"

Jackson looked at the dark green eyes before him

"Do you remember anything from your past life?"

Mi Bum shook his head

"Only that my name is Park Mi Bum and that I'm 19 years of age....and.....that I am a to please mens needs"

Jackson placed his hand on Mi Bum's cheek

"Your not a Mi Bum don't call yourself that"

Mi Bum placed his hand on Jackson's and his head dropped

"My body says different"

the blanket slid down Mi Bum's shoulders and Jackson's eyes caught more bruises,his eyes looked up at Mi Bum as he watched tears stream down his cheeks,Jackson pulled the smaller boy into his arms and felt the tears start to soak into his shirt all he wanted to do was make his younger brother safe and make him feel protected he wanted to keep the promise they made years ago

                             -----

"Brother are you asleep?"

Jackson laided their staring at the ceiling as Mi Bum laid curled up into his covers staring at his older brother

"No,but why aren't you asleep"

Jackson asked turning over to look at the younger boy across from him

"I cant sleep.....do you think papa is going to leave mama?"

"Why would you ask such a question he loves her.."

Mi Bum sighed and rolled over staring at the ceiling

"Because just because they show their love physicaly doesn't mean they are in love mentaly"

Maybe Mi Bum was right I mean just cause they showed their affection around them didn't mean they were truly in love

"You shouldn't be thinking about those kinds of things"

Jackson pulled the covers up to his chest and sigh
