A teenage boy sat in front of a laptop; the portable computer had the image of a bugs head on it. Underneath the head the word “Hive-mind” was written in chrome. He turned on the laptop allowing the screens light to illuminate the darkened room he was in. it made the typical starting up sound; followed by the chime that signaled he was on the home screen. The had jet black hair with a matching T-shirt and boxer shorts. Using his mouse pad he clicked on a chat-room icon. Once the program was running and he was logged into his account; he scrolled through his small list of friends. A smile appeared on his face as he clicked on one of the user-names. A small box appeared and he typed.

Lovebug234:Hey hon.

Pressing enter he waited patiently for a reply. Just few seconds later he heard a small ping; and saw the message underneath the one he had sent.

Heatedscales:Hey sexy. ;).

He chuckled a little before he replied.

Lovebug234:Tough day at school, huh?

He sent the reply and waited once again. He didn't have to wait long for the reply.

Heatedscales:No lie! I'm still aching from gym class.

A smug look stretched across the teens face.

Lovebug234:Aw, poor baby. Wanna kiss '3'?

After he had pressed sent he quietly chuckled to himself. He knew he was going to pay for that.

Heatedscales:Maybe. ;). Then again; the way I saw you glancing at me in the locker-room. I think you want this instead of a kiss.

Before he could reply he had received another message; which had a paper clip with a photo. He clicked on the image and immediately gasped; before quickly closing the image.

Lovebug234:SPIKE!

The poor teen had a blush on his face that rivaled an apples natural color.

Heatedscales:LOL. You know you loved that image.

He sighed in irritation as he shook his head.

Lovebug234:Dude my mom doesn't even know about us. She would probably disown me if she found out.

He took a quick glance over his laptops screen. Although he could barely see the door to his room; he clearly saw that it was still closed and he was pretty sure that he had locked it.

Heatedscales:You know you can move in with me.

The teen sighed as he read the message twice.

Lovebug234:I know “Sigh” but I don't want to be a burden on you or your family.

A frown found itself upon his face after he had sent the message. He loved the idea of moving in with his boyfriend. But at the same time he didn't want to be a problem; which his mother made him fell like all the time.

Heatedscales:Thorax you're not a problem. Remember my folks are okay with us being together.

It made him smile and his heart fluttered a little at the message.

Lovebug234:I know. I know.

As he waited for the reply he began to think to himself. Maybe leaving his home wasn't such a bad idea. After all he mother possibly hated him and she's always done enough damage to his confidence.

Heatedscales:We could also make our RP from yesterday a reality.

His eyes went wide in horror as he typed.

Lovebug234:Spike. Don't you dare.

He felt blood rushing to his face as he waited for the reply.

Heatedscales:It doesn't have to just be a fantasy.

Before the teen could reply; he had already received another message.

Heatedscales: Heatedscales:You like this don't you?!

Lovebug234:Oh, yes, yes my dragon lord.

Heatedscales:Are you mine and mine alone.

Lovebug234:yes....ugh....please don't stop.

Heatedscales:Do you like the feeling of my.

Lovebug234:SPIKE!!!!!!!!

The teen was sweating heavily almost as if someone had just turned the heat up. He also felt an uncomfortable tightness coming from his boxer shorts.

Heatedscales:Love you dear.

A look of annoyance found itself on his face.

Lovebug234:Tease.

As he waited for the reply he checked his surroundings again. Once he saw he was in the clear; he continued to chat with the one he called Spike.

Heatedscales:WTF?

The boys right eyebrow went up a little.

Lovebug234:What's going on?

As he waited for the reply; he though he heard his mothers footsteps walking up to his room. He was tempted to quickly close his computer; but thankfully he never heard the sound again. By the time he looked back down at the screen; he saw two replies.

Heatedscales:There's someone standing outside my home.

Heatedscales:Dude, he's just staring at me.

He kinda figured it was a prank; after all his boyfriend had pulled this on him once before.

Lovebug234:You mean like the last time? When scared me with the jumpscare.

A smug smile found itself on his face again; no was he going to be pranked again.

Heatedscales:I'm not kidding, look.

Another paper clip with a photo attached to it appeared on his screen. When he opened it; he saw the image of a person standing on someone's front lawn. The person wore what looked like a dark brown hoodie and black pants. The person was to far away so his face could not be seen.

Lovebug234:Whoa! Who is that?

He felt a little worried after seeing the image.

Heatedscales:IDK. I texted my mom and dad if they were expecting somebody. They said no.

He took in a deep breath trying to calm himself down. He still though his BF was trying to scare him again. Though at the back part of his mind; he still wondered if this wasn't a prank.

Lovebug234:Are the doors locked?

Sometime passed before he received a new message.

Heatedscales:Yes.....but I just heard one of doors open.

The teen felt a little fear settle into his mind; he jumped when he heard the sound of running water. He sighed in relief; for he had forgotten his room was next to the bathroom.

Heatedscales:Dude are you there?!

Almost immediately he replied.

Lovebug234:Yes. I'm still here. Is the person in the house?

He waited anxiously for the reply; thankfully he didn't have to wait long.

Heatedscales:I'm on my phone now. I can hear someone walking down stairs.

He felt as though he was moving slow as he typed his reply. The teen was scared for his BF; wondering if his better half was going to be okay.

Lovebug234:Dude call the police now!

It felt like an eternity before he received a reply.

Heatedscales:I have! They are on their way; I can hear him just walking down there.

Fear was starting to take full control of the teens mind.

Lovebug234:Have you told you're folks?

He jumped when he heard a door close hard; it almost made him drop his laptop. He released a furious growl; before looking back down at the computer screen. Once again seeing two messages.

Heatedscales:I can't get through to them; I think they are at a movie.

Heatedscales:OMG! He's coming up stairs!

Thorax swore he could fee his heart hammering in his chest.

Lovebug234:Dude hide!

The teen felt hopeless; he felt like he was reading a horror story online. Except this one had his lover fighting for his life. Then, finally after thirty agonizing minutes he got a reply.

Heatedscales: He is in my fucking room.

He swore he felt his heart go to his throat after he saw the reply. As he typed his next reply; he prayed his lover had his phone on silent.

Lovebug234:Do you have a weapon? A gun? A knife? Something?

By now the teen was biting his lower lip; possibly drawing blood from the amount of pressure he was applying to it.

Lovebug234:Spike are you okay?

He waited almost an hour for Spike to reply; when he didn't receive one he debated whether to send another message. Eventually he came to a decision and shaking hands he typed another message.

Lovebug234:Babe....please.......tell me you're okay.

He felt a huge amount of relief when he received a message from him.

Heatedscales:I'm fine. He found where I was hiding; but I fought him off. Stabbed him in the shoulder and he took off running.

Although he was relieved he was still worried for his BF.

Lovebug234:OMG! Are you okay? Are you hurt?

Almost instantly he received a reply from Spike.

Heatedscales:No, I'm fine. Maybe a little banged up; but I'm okay.

Thorax sighed in relief as he shook his head; just a little while ago he though for sure he was going to lose his lover. But after receiving messages that he was okay; he felt very relieved and happy.

Lovebug234:Thank heaven. I'm glade to hear that you're going to be okay. Are the police or your parents there yet?

Thorax swore he could hear the distant sound of police sirens; heading towards the part of town his BF lived in.

Heatedscales:No, not yet. Hopefully they get home soon. I'm shaking a little.

He chuckled a little although it felt wrong; then again, maybe his BF would do the same thing if it happened to him.

Lovebug234:I am too Spikey-Wikey. But; I'm so glad to hear you're okay.

It didn't take long for him to get a reply.

Heatedscales:I'm glad I'm okay too.

Before he could reply he had already received another message.

Heatedscales:I love you.

The teen smiled happily after he had read the text.

Lovebug234:I love you too, baby. I love you too.

After he sent the reply a happy memory entered his though. It was the memory of when they first told each other how they felt; and when they first kissed.

Heatedscales:Is it okay if I come over? I don't feel safe here alone.

He shook his head at the question.

Lovebug234:Sure. My mom should be in bed right now.

He couldn't wait for Spike to not only reply; but he also couldn't wait for him to possibly come over.

Heatedscales:Can you tell me where you live again? Sorry I can't remember the street you live or what you're house looks like.

Thorax quickly sent the reply as he shook his head; sometimes his BF would forget the street he lived on. He would also forget sometimes that him and his mother now lived in an apartment. He then had a shocked look on his face; almost as if something had just blindsided him. There was no way his boyfriend would forget where he lived. The reason why; was because the day him and his mother moved into the apartment. Was the same night where Thorax and him “Shared” a night of passion with each other.

Lovebug234:Spike?

After the message was sent he received a video chat; which shaking fingers he accepted the call. The image on his computer screen made him freeze in fear. For looking into the camera was the darkened face of another man. He could only see his mouth; which was void of emotion. Eventually the mouth had a wicked smile form on it; before he heard a rough voice say.

?????:See you soon......dear.
