“Calis I am not repeating myself. You are not going to be kidnapped on my watch and if you even think of running off I will spank your little behind until you can’t sit comfortably for a whole month. We are not debating this so stop looking at wigs or I will take your computer away too.”
Sebastian said sternly as he went over to Calis’s computer closing the site that Calis was looking at. He promised Calis he would help him look for this killer, but he was not going to have Calis put in danger just to catch this bastard.
Calis frowned at Sebastian who was getting things together for them to go out into town for a while. Calis figured he would find a way to sneak over to that church at some point so he could see the crime scene with or without Sebastian helping him.
“Sebastian, I wish to go to church. I want to light a candle for my parents.”
Calis said looking for Sebastian to argue with that.
Sebastian frowned since he did not want to go to any bloody church. All he needed was for his wings to pop out, which they would in a church, and have a bunch of people worshiping him and Calis.
“I don’t think that is a good idea Calis. I think we should just light a candle for them here.”
Sebastian hoped to dissuade Calis from going into a holy place.
“No Sebastian, I already light a candle for them here. I wish to go to a church. A catholic church mind you in town and I want to do it before we go shopping.”
Calis said firmly as he got up from the computer and looked at Sebastian daring him to challenge him on this. Calis knew Sebastian well enough to know he had no valid argument to keep Calis from doing this.
“Very well, we will go to that small church, Carlisle Cathedral in town.”
Calis shook his head no.
“No,I want to go to a big church. I want to go to the biggest Catholic Church in town. I want to go to the London Cathedral (St Paul's).”
Sebastian then realized what Calis was trying to do. Sebastian narrowed his eyes at Calis and looked the boy in the eyes.
“No Calis. You can go to any other bloody church but we are not going to the Cathedral. You are not going to snoop around that crime scene.”
Sebastian said angrily since obviously Calis thought him daft if he was going to fall for this trick.
“I am not going to look at the crime scene; I am not going to even ask questions Sebastian. I just want to go there to light a candle for my parents. We are going there so do not think you can stop me.”
Calis stated lifting an eyebrow at Sebastian to argue with him.
“Calis if this is a trick you will find yourself very embarrassed at this church. I will indeed bare your little bottom and spank you until my handprints are tattooed on your little ass right in front of everyone.”
Sebastian looked at Calis who frowned, but finally nodded since he would behave although he was going to glimpse at the crime scene whether Sebastian liked it or not. Besides, the crime scene was at the very front of the Cathedral. The boys’ bodies were always left at the doorstep wrapped in bloody sheets.
“I have a date tonight so do not be long at the Cathedral, Calis. I had to get this date for you to gain your information. I will try to squeeze some more from her tonight, but do not think I am going to do this again for you if you keep persisting on putting yourself in harm’s way.”
Sebastian scolded as he gathered Calis’s coat, gloves, scarf, and beanie to go out on the town. Sebastian already had his on and was simply waiting for Christian and Ashton to get their butts in gear.
Christian was out re-salting the walks, but should have been done by now. Finally having enough, Sebastian gathered Ashton’s things and told the boys to get off their computers since it was time to leave. Christian came in just as Sebastian was putting Calis’s coat, gloves, scarf, and beanie on. Then Sebastian put those huge blue ear muffs on Calis smirking at how cute Calis was with them on.
“Hand me Ashton’s things Sebastian.”
Christian said as he dressed Ashton in coat, gloves, scarf, beanie, and ear muffs.
Sebastian did not bother with a beanie since he did not wish to mess up his hair, but Christian put on the black one since he did not want his ears cold. At that everyone stepped out and waited for the limousine to pull around before climbing in.
“Christian I want you to keep an eye out when it comes to Ashton and Calis. Ashton is actually more of a target this time since this killer attacks boys with blonde hair and blue eyes. I have to go to the fabric store after we go to the church and the boys want to go to the music store so I figure with you watching them, the boys will be fine.”
Sebastian pulled the collar up on his jacket wrapping the scarf a little tighter since it was cold out and they were almost in town.
“I don’t see that as being a problem Sebastian.”
Christian also pulled up his collar and made sure Ashton had his hood on before they got out of the car. As the four got out, they walked towards the Cathedral with Sebastian watching Calis like a hawk. The boy was sneaky sometimes and could not read his thoughts right now.
Calis was looking around the church as he walked trying to see where a murderer could travel and then disappear quickly. It seemed damn near impossible with all the people around, but of course the bodies were left late in the evening. There was however, police officers standing guard at the church and Calis figured they would be there the whole night.
As Calis got up the steps, he purposely tripped himself to fall exactly on the spot where the bodies were left to see if there were any blood trails only for Sebastian to catch him mid fall.
“Watch your feet Calis.”
Sebastian warned the boy as he picked Calis up by the back of his collar shoving Calis forward into the church. When the four of them entered the church, there was soft music playing and a marble bowl filled with holy water.
Calis dipped his finger into the holy water and did the catholic sign of the cross over himself only for his wings to pop out. Sebastian and Christian’s wings automatically popped out after entering the church. It was so annoying and the church was of course full.
Ashton touched the holy water out of curiosity and then touched his forehead with his finger making his wings pop out. As the four walked forward people were whispering to each other that it was blasphemous for these four people to walk about pretending to be Angels in this holy place. That was until a little boy reached out and grasped Sebastian’s wing hanging on it as Sebastian walked ahead ignoring the pulling on his wing.
“Sebastian…….”
Calis stated firmly looking at Sebastian who had a boy hanging off his wing.
“What Calis?”
Sebastian asked pretending there was not a child riding on his wing.
“Get the boy off you.”
Calis said tersely as he looked at the people who were now on the floor bowing to them.
“Very well…”
Sebastian opened his wings high enough that the child was dangling from his wing just above a pew before Sebastian shook the boy off. Feathers flew everywhere and people were grasping at them as if their feathers would heal them.
A priest came running forward and prostrated himself before the four Angels whispering words in Latin claiming a miracle had come to this Cathedral. He begged for the Angels to tell him why they were here and how he might serve God all in Latin.
Sebastian said something in Latin and the priest backed away in fear. Then Sebastian said something else and the priest just nodded doing a sign of the cross across his chest as he prayed for Blessed Mother Mary to save the souls who had witnessed the fallen Angels.
Anne had remained at home thank goodness since she probably would have caused a ruckus since she looked like a holy Angel of God. Calis figured they would need to be more careful when going into churches from now on.
“Sebastian what did you say to that priest? He is looking at you like you are the devil.”
Calis asked since the priest kept praying and fl
icking holy water in their direction.
“I simply told him Christian and I are fallen Angels. However, you two are cherubs and we are trying to redeem our souls by caring for you both. I also told him holy water doesn’t work on us, but obviously, he is too afraid to heed that bit of information.”
Sebastian smiled rather wickedly at the priest who was white as a ghost at Sebastian’s look.
“Stop it Sebastian. Let the poor man be.”
Calis said sternly to his butler who was enjoying himself immensely. Sebastian loved the idea of causing fear in this form.
“Go light your candle Calis and do not worry about me so much. We are going to leave soon.”
Sebastian stated as the priest watched Calis wander to the candles dropping a coin in the offering slot before using a tonk to light a rather large red candle. Calis prayed for a moment and a light flowed around him as he did. The priest gasped at the beautiful cherub and there were murmurs throughout the church that they were being blessed by God’s creatures.
Ashton wandered over to where Calis was and thought about lighting a candle as well.
“Calis can I have a coin?”
Ashton asked as he looked at the candles thinking of his parents and brother.
“Here, just don’t take too long Ashton.”
Calis said as he handed Ashton a coin. Ashton took the tonk and lit a candle on the other side of Calis’s closing his eyes and doing a small prayer for his family. He also glowed a bit before he turned with a smile at Christian who nodded to the boy.
Ashton practically skipped to Christian and took his butler’s hand leaning into him with a wide smile on his face.
Sebastian merely winked at the priest with a wry smile before following Calis out of the church feeling pretty damn good about himself. The priest looked as though he was going to faint when Sebastian did that, but simply said a quick prayer before starting mass.
After leaving the church their wings could be hidden again and Sebastian was a little disappointed in that since now he kind of liked them. Causing fear in any individual seemed like a good way to make his day as he heard the priest in the church shakily going over the sermon about false prophets and fallen Angels.
Of course, that church was going to be packed now at all times since the cherubs were there, but as far as the priest was concerned darkness had fallen upon them all making him fear that the church itself might be cursed thanks to Sebastian.
“Sebastian, I would like to go to that church again so I hope you did not wear out our welcome with your game.”
Calis said angrily since he knew Sebastian was enjoying himself almost too much.
“Even a fallen Angel is welcome in a house of God, Calis. Next time we shall bring Anne and she can maybe get the priest to quit freaking out.”
Christian said as he walked with Ashton’s hand in his own.
“Why ruin a good thing Christian? Do you really like being worshiped over being feared?”
Sebastian asked with a frown, he hoped next time he went into that church the priest pissed himself.
“No, I prefer being feared Sebastian, but Calis is right especially if you wish to continue this ridiculous investigation. It would behoove you to gain cooperation rather than bite the hand that feeds you.”
Christian said since Sebastian was still thinking like a demon. It was cute that Sebastian wanted to still play the feared demon, but fact was they were no longer demons. Sebastian could cause fear in others if he wanted to continue his game.
“Fine, but I will get one good scream out of him at least once before Anne corrupts him with her sickening goodness.”
Sebastian said since next time he saw that priest he was going to touch him. If that did not freak the man out, nothing would.
“Sebastian go get your fabrics and such. We will meet you at the music store.”
Calis was not about to argue with his butler and husband about being tactful when it came to preachers.
Christian took both boys to the music store while Sebastian raced off to go get his fabrics and things. Sebastian was so excited since he had a magnificent idea on how to make these beautiful suits. They would both be wearing a dark ruby red velvet outfit with long tapered shorts that went just past the knees with lovely gold and black buttons. The lace would be ivory and the silk would match. The boy’s vests would be also made of red velvet to match the coats which would have tons of frills and bows.
Sebastian would pick out the top hats hopefully finding them in deep blood red with roses upon them with black bows and black mesh for netting over the face a bit. Sebastian could just imagine it and planned to get high heeled boots for both boys with long white silk and lace stockings.
Also, Sebastian was going to pick up extra red velvet, ivory lace, and ivory silk to make suits for himself and Christian. It was to be his presents to his family. Then for Anne he would also pick up a full bolt of red velvet, ivory lace, and ivory silk to make her a chemise and gorgeous gown so everyone would match. Sebastian figured he could get a pattern for Anne’s gown although he would have to alter it a bit for her large breasts. It would have intricate boning and he would assist her with a corset, laced up white high heeled boots, her silk thigh high stockings, buy her a pretty red garter for those sexy long legs, help her put on her white garters for holding up those stockings, and with this gown he would buy her a beautiful lace strapless bra. He would also need several spools of thread in both red and gold.
Sebastian’s sewing machine also had an embroidery feature so he would embroider the gold thread in an elegant leaf pattern on all the outfits as well as add some jeweled beads to each ensemble.
If Sebastian could not find the beading at the fabric store, he would go to the craft store and look. He also wanted to go to the jewelers to pick out some fine pieces of jewelry for Anne like ruby and diamond earrings with matching necklace and ring. Calis, Ashton, and Christian would also have gold cufflinks to match and since Calis’s ears were pierced he would buy some ruby stud earrings for his little lover.
Sebastian thought of picking out a pair of earrings for Ashton and having the boy’s ears pierced. Ashton had pretty little ears and should really wear earrings also. Sebastian figured he would talk to Christian and Ashton about having such done.
Christian wandered around with the boys at the music store. Ashton was looking for the Adam Lambert CD with the song Strut on it. He really liked that song and had a CD player in his room. Ashton wanted to dance to it and strip for Christian. It was such a naughty fun song and it made Ashton want to show everything off while strutting around shaking everything he had for his lover.
Calis was looking for a new Disturbed CD. He loved that band even if Sebastian called it loud and obnoxious. Calis liked hard rock on occasion and the darker the better. Calis liked Megadeath and Iron Maiden. In fact, Calis had a couple of albums of Iron Maiden and Godsmack. Calis also liked hair bands like Poison, Cinderella, and Def Leopard. Ozzy Osborne was another favorite of his from the time Black Sabbath came out to now.
As the boys kept looking at CDs and Ashton found a few of the ones he wanted, a bell rang at the door and an individual walked in that both boys knew well. Christian frowned since it was someone he hoped never to see again, but Calis wandered over to the young man with a smile.
“Allen, it is good to see you. How have you been?”
Calis asked since Kingsly rarely talked about his protégé Allen anymore.
“Oh, hi Calis, I have been fine.”
Allen said with a smile as he looked down at the adorable boy who smiled widely up at him. Allen always thought Calis was pretty, but knew Sebastian would rip him to shreds if he tried anything with his little husband.
Ashton was a bit nervous about approaching Allen, but Allen talked to Calis for a little while before going over to Ashton.
“Hello beautiful.”
Allen said to Ashton who simply blushed and turned away.
“How are you doing Allen?”
>
Ashton asked not looking at Allen as he pretended to be interested in the CD rack although there was nothing in classical music that really interested him.
“I am doing ok. I miss you.”
Allen said sadly as he grasped Ashton’s hand kissing it.
“Allen please don’t. I am with Christian now.”
Ashton said pulling his hand shakily away.
“Ashton please we are friends. Come talk to me for a bit. I promise I won’t try anything. I just want to talk…alone.”
Allen stated giving Christian a look like he had better let them be or else.
“Allen……I……”
Ashton said getting ready to refuse Allen.
