Chapter 581 - Target Acquired (2/2)
In the morning.
”What happened here?” Anna and Mary gasped simultaneously as they looked at the ruined nightstand while Nik rubbed his eyes while yawning in exhaustion, ”I'm a damn genius to figure out the trick, that's what happened...” Mumbling, Nik fell back on the bed, ”You girls would need to shower... I'm out of juice, sadly,” his words pulled a short giggle from Anna who instantly straddled onto Nik, his upright shaft pressed against a little above the flat of her crotch as Nik's boxers pressed against the erect tool, ”This doesn't look out of juice?” She leaned down as Mary sighed and walked out. She unexpectedly felt sore down there, much to her grimace. She needed her ability to walk to perform her job well.
”Honey, this is one machine that never breaks,” leaning forward to peck Anna, they both heard Mary groaning, ”If just Mac Donalds could claim that!”

”Dad? Again? I waited till midnight!” Gwen stormed out of her apartment as George looked at the slammed down door with a deep sigh. He didn't ask for 'Luke' and some woman dressed in white-grey costume to lay ruin to a small russian gang. Well, in his hindsight, he should have replied to his daughter's texts, a bad habit of his that usually gets on to him from time to time. Meanwhile, Gwen puffed her cheeks while walking down the stairs, of course, unwilling to get her father's lift to the school while reasonably rebellious thoughts finally forming within her mind. Should she get the worst boyfriend to rub it in his nose? Should she publicly embarrass him?
Of course, these thoughts weren't impulsive but well thought. As a student who took a little shine on psychology and grazed through all the high school level stuff, Gwen had been slightly able to point her insecurities. Only slightly. And even when knowing that these thoughts burned within her mind out of her father's ignorance and in fact, no one being there for her aside from her father himself, Gwen eyed a salon in the way and stormed in. Later, into a cloth store, too.
Midtown Highschool.
”Hey, Mum seemed pretty shaky yesterday. Did she say anything to you?” Anna inquired as Nik thought for a moment before nodding casually. ”Yea, but I hope you can wait till you hear things from Mary. Of course, if you want, I can share anything you ask,” Nik waved at Harry while Ann shook her head. ”It's fine,” she sighed while gazing at the pale and sickly looking Harry Osborn. His eyes sunken, and his lips slightly darker than before. Of course, a pale complexion was a given. Not minding the company after a little over a week, Harry smiled at them, ”Hey guys, at least, you two don't mind talking to me...”
'Instantly going to his problems?' Nik raised an eyebrow while Anna hugged him with a wide smile, ”Why wouldn't we? We missed you!” She exclaimed, ”How about going to Charla's for a smoothie later on?” She instantly invited as Harry looked at Nik with a wry smile, ”I would love to—”
”Come on!” Nik rolled his eyes, ”You know you want to. You always like to chat with that goth chick, right?” Nik stated while recalling the girl from the establishment as Harry coughed, ”Fine! Just—”
”Junior!” Anna greeted loudly as she saw a man walking towards the trio.
”H-hey, Brandon,” Harry replied a little meekly. He had long understood that sometimes his reputation and wealth couldn't get his ass out of a beating while Nik smiled and greeted, ”This is a surprise,” his words making Brandon flinch for a moment as he looked at the remaining duo. ”A... little privacy, people?” Anna looked a little uncertain but once Nik just spoke into her mind, she sighed and turned to kiss Nik before leaving Harry and Brandon with a wave. ”I'll see you after classes,” Harry walked away as Brandon gazed at Nik before nodding. ”I came here to thank you... about Kiara.”
”Why not yesterday? Were you back in the hideout?” Nik snickered as he opened his locker and got his materials straightened out while Brandon took a deep sigh, ”To almost get a slap, yep. Luckily, I'm still going out with her.”
”Not luckily but because of me,” closing the locker door, Nik winked at Brandon and spoke up, ”Anyways, I did get you a major favor but I also made my source speak up for you and... make your street reputation a little foggy. So, what happens from now is on you.” With that, Nik left as Brandon nodded slowly and walked back to his own classroom. Much to Nik's surprise and the chatter of the whole class, Nik found Gwen sitting with quite a lovely black t-shirt with a pink heart printed on top of it and a skull within the heart. Her blonde hair trimmed that barely passed her neck and the tip of her naturally blonde hair now turned into soft pink tone. The color itself blended up to a little higher height, giving Gwen an unusual but still, charming look.
”Well... hello,” Nik muttered the moment he sat behind her as she turned back and showed quite the smug expression.
”So? How do I look?”
”Considering that your father might finally get a heart attack, a perfect 10,” Nik nodded, ”Out of 15, if that wasn't clear.”
Gwen's victorious expression dampened a little before she snorted, ”What do you know!” She did, however, turn back to Nik after three minutes before speaking up softly, ”Just so you know, when my dad comes to pick me up, grab me, but not in a 'too much' manner. I'll talk to Anna.”
Not startled by the situation, much to Gwen's frustration, Nik nodded with a wide smile, ”Don't worry. I'll only go for the ass.”
And Gwen didn't look back for the entire first lecture, with Ms. Harthworth on time this morning.
