Reunited With The Squad

LIAM

"Where were you?" Jiroo asks as soon as I sit down between him and Ayu inside our first class.

"Somewhere." I deadpanned and side glanced at Jiroo which made me frown when I saw his face. "You should've stayed home until you got better."

"Liam, I've been an assassin before, remember? This is just scratch." He said smugly and I couldn't disagree more, being an assassin means we need to be unbothered about little wounds, life of an assassin isn't really that easy, especially if you were working for Demons.

"But seriously, Liam. Where have you been?" Ayu asks again, she surely won't stop until they know where I've been since I decided to leave early and left Jiroo alone in my apartment.

"I just dropped by Bambam's store to check his new items." I lied and they seemed to believe me as they nodded their heads.

As I've said, it was a lie because the truth is, I followed Hera and Nami this morning, don't ask me why, because even myself couldn't understand my fucking self why I followed them.

It's just that I seemed to have a crush on that cat-like eyed girl from the moment I saw her in front of my door. I have never seen a girl like her so beautiful and cute at the same time and I want to pinch her puffy cheeks.

I followed them from the moment they stepped out from their apartment, watching them from afar, until I had to wait for them to leave the registrar room. But to my dismay, Tyrone and his group bumped into them. I wasn't supposed to show myself at that time but when I saw that no one helped Nami to stand up, my blood started to boil and I reached out my hand for my friend.

Those guys are really getting on my nerves since they've hurt Jiroo but I couldn't do anything about them because I know that I can't kill them because Demian won't allow me.

I told you, Demian is really different for a Demon Lord. He doesn't want me to kill anyone as long as it has nothing to do with my job. He only allows us to fight back, but killing? No, he was so against it, so Ayu and I always settled with beating our opponents if they were not our target.

But having a crush to someone that I don't even know in the first place, seems to be so stupid idea and the fact that I'm a demon assassin and killing people is the only way for me to survive at this cruel land, would she like me back? I doubt it.

I released a lungful sigh and sulk on my seat, putting the hood in my head to hide my face and let out another sigh.

"Whoa, were you spirited away or something?" Jiroo asked, whispering softly on my side.

"Yeah, why are you dispirited all of a sudden?" Ayu asked and removed the hood in my head. "Did something occur on your way?"

"Nah.. I was just thinking about my target." I lied again.

"Your target?" Jiroo asked and it seems that I fully got his attention now and he stirred his body to face me. "What's wrong with your target?"

"Would you believe that Liam's target is the daughter of the strongest deity?" Ayu answered for me.

"Oh wow? What was Demian thinking?" Jiroo said in disbelief.

"The daughter ran away but Liam doesn't even have any idea what she looks like and where she is right now."

"Oh? Is this why the weather now is so gloomy because the Deity is mad and why would he not know her face?" Jiroo asked again and looked at me after he remembered that I was literally sitting between them but they were talking as if I'm not existing at all. "You were from Heaven right? Then why–."

"Wait, how did you know that I'm from there?!" I asked in shock and sat straight abruptly.

"Dude the picture on the wall says it all, you're wearing a fucking chiton!" She said incredulously. "But that was not the topic here, why didn't you see the Deity's daughter? You've been living there—."

"No one in mount Olympus has seen the wench, she's always inside their house."

"No wonder you got kicked out, bruh you didn't even know how to respect the girl." Jiroo mocks and they both giggled.

"And I'm afraid that I have to kick the three of you out of my class."

The three of us whipped our heads beside Jiroo when we heard Mr. Taewon, our professor who just got married last month to his wife Mrs. Young, our other professor in a major subject.

"I'm sorry, ma'am." Ayu immediately apologized and stood up to bowled over.

"It's ok, I understand, I feel you guys but this is not the right moment to talk about girls." Mr. Taewon said and smiled at us while pointing at the door and we had no choice but to step out of the room with our heads hanging low.

"It's your fault." Jiroo elbows me while we are walking to the field.

"Excuse me? I wasn't the one who started talking in the middle of the class." I scowled at him as I sat on the grass and leaned my back on the tree.

"But seriously Liam, your target will be hard to find, do you need our help?" Ayu said after taking the seat on the bench and Jiroo lay down on the grass, using my lap as his pillow.

"How would you help me?" I asked mockingly and chuckled. "It's hard to find the person who's hiding— ouch!"

"News, Liam. Aren't you familiar with the media?" Jiroo flicked his fingers on my chin and sat up. "Do you know how MIB tracks their aliens? They will first check the tabloids."

"Pfft, what are we looking for? An alien?" I asked while laughing throatily.

"Why don't you try it first?" Ayu said as she started tapping on her phone. "Holy shit!" She exclaimed while covering her mouth with her trembling hands which made us startled and I suddenly stood up and stole Ayu's phone from her grip to take a look at what's in it.

"Ayu!" I yelled and shoved back her phone after I saw what's in it. "I thought it's about my target!"

"Wait, what is it about?" Jiroo asked curiously.

"Chanel has 20% off and it's today!"

"Holy shit! Ayu you are really a wench!" Jiroo said while laughing his ass off and standing up. "Why don't we go to the mall?"

"You mean we're going to cut classes?" Ayu asks and Jiroo nods his head. "Oh oh can we tag Nami?"

"Of course!" Let me get her." Jiroo said before running away to fetch Nami.

When Ayu made sure that Jiroo was already far away from our earshot, she looked at me and handed me her phone and even though I'm confused, I still took it and when I saw what's in it, I hitch my breath.

"Jiroo was right." Ayu said while chuckling. "He's teaching you subtly on how to be the next legendary assassin."

"So the wench is really here in California?" I asked myself while staring at the picture where a falling bright light came down from heaven and was caught in camera accidentally. It was posted by a teenage girl and got viral with millions of views.

"Yes, so all you have to do is to be observant." She said and took back the phone from my hand. "If you are a child of the almighty God, you will find it difficult to adapt to the human world, so she won't avoid using her power and you need to be alert before Lord Demian's siblings could catch her first."

"I don't know, Jieun. She's still a woman, I don't know if I can kill her." I sighed and sat down on the bench. "Why does it have to be this hard?"

"That's the only way for the brotherhood of the thorns to trust you, you know that the three of them are still doubting you right?"

"Fuck them." I hissed and rubbed my knuckles on my eyes and released a frustrating sigh.

"But once you kill her, everything will be fine Liam."

"Yeah, I just hope that this will be the first and last woman I will kill." I said and scrunch up my nose. It still gives me heavy feelings every time I will remember that my next mission is a woman.

—

The four of us decided to cut classes and go to the Chanel store because Ayu and Nami wouldn't stop squealing after I told them that I will buy everything they want because I got paid off from my last mission and gave them my credit card.

"Why don't you go inside?" I asked the guy sitting next to me as we both bit the plastic straw in our chocolate drink and followed every sexy girl passing by in front of us.

"I hate shoppings." Jiroo replied as he was staring at the woman who was about to pass by. "Damn she's thick." He mumbles and I immediately follow his gaze and my eyebrows quirks when I see the girl he was talking about.

"Damn hot." I agreed and stared at the woman's boobs. We never looked at every woman's face and just admired their front and behind. "So sexy."

"Yeah, so sexy." Jiroo repeated and when the girl walked in front of us, we pretended that we're talking and looked at her behind when she finally walked past us. "Oh shit, look at that perfect round ass."

"I wonder how soft they are." I said under my breath.

"These perverts." Ayu said who just got out of the store with Nami as they followed our gaze.

"Isn't it— hey Hera!" Nami shouted and the woman we were staring at stopped from walking and I froze, my widened eyes slowly went up and met a pair of cat-like eyes.

"Hey, Nami."

"Shit." I whispered and cleared my throat as I looked away before sitting straight and sipped on my drink. I noticed Jiroo still staring at Hera with his mouth slightly agape. "Stop it, pervert!" I hissed at him and covered his eyes.

"Assholes." Ayu said and smacked our heads. "Would you stop eye raping every women you'll see?"

"Sorry." I said and smiled at her awkwardly.

"Can I move to Nami's apartment?"

"Do you want to die?" I asked back and shot him a dagger look.

"Oh my God, I know that kind of reaction!" Jiroo exclaimed and he laughed. "Don't tell me you like me?"

"Don't give me reason to doubt that you are really turtle rabbit." Ayu tells him and punches his shoulder while I stare at Jiroo ludicrously. "He likes Je–."

"I don't!"

"Whoa, calm down schmuck, too defensive ey?" Ayu mocks and both Jiroo and her laugh their ass off that we didn't notice Hera and Nami standing in front of us.

"Hey Hera! Great to see you here!" Jiroo said as he stood up and was about to hug Hera but I kicked his shin. "Fuck!" He suddenly crouched and rubbed his leg.

"What's wrong?" Nami and Hera asked simultaneously.

"What happened to you?" I asked innocently while rubbing his back. "Are you okay buddy?"

"Damn you, I will slit your throat and stab you to death later." Jiroo whispered hard.

"Don't you dare touch her or I'll shoot you with my gun." I fired back before looking up again. "He said he has stomach pain and I need to bring him home so we'll go ahead first." I said before grabbing Jiroo and putting him on my shoulder like a sack of rice and carry him away, leaving the three girls confused.

When I made sure that we're far away from the girls, I put down Jiroo who immediately punched my shoulder.

"You possessive dumbass!"

"You're about to harass Hera!"

"I am not! I was just going to greet her!" He defended himself and hit my head.

"You can't fool me with that, Roo. You're going to hug her just to feel her bumps!"

"Don't put that shit on me, Liam. I ain't you!" Jiroo scowled at me.

"I'm telling you, Roo! I'm going to sink twenty bullets in your body if you– hey hey where are you going?!" I asked when Jiroo suddenly run and I creased my eyebrows for how fast he run. "He is really an assassin." I said before running after him.

He turned into one alley which caused me to run faster and I stopped on my tracks when I saw him jump onto a man's shoulder and kicked the other guy in front. Then Jiroo throw a fist on the other guy behind him sending him on the ground, kicked another guy's balls that I surely knows he will get barren, Jiroo spin around to kicked another guy on his neck and the last guy was about to run but Jiroo didn't let him as he run after him and grabbed his hair.

"N-no please! I'm s-sorry!"

"You are a bunch of pervert weirdos!" Jiroo yelled onto his face before smashing his head on the wall who quickly lost his consciousness.

"Wow, the audacity!" I said while slowly clapping my hands while walking to him. "But that was really cool!"

"Thank you." Jiroo said and he bowed at me, as if he's in some theater shit. "Are you girls okay?" He asked after and that's when I noticed the three women standing on the side.

"T-thank you." The tallest woman with blonde hair, said.

"Who are they?" I asked confusedly.

"I don't know, I just saw these guys dragging them here." Jiroo replied and shrugged his shoulders before facing the three women once again. "Are you girls hurt?"

"No, we're fine. Thank you for saving us." The smallest girl said and bowed her head slightly.

She's so beautiful, what the hell? I think I've seen her before but I forgot where and when.

"I'm Ivana, this is Selene and this is Ceres." Ivana introduced themselves and offered her hand for a handshake.

"I'm Jiroo and this is my buddy, Liam." Jiroo said and reached for Ivana's hand. "Anyway, you seem new to this place, where are you girls going?"

"Oh uhm, we were looking for our friend." The girl with orange hair answered while staring at me, same with the blonde girl who's staring at me intensely.

"Have we met before?" Ceres asked.

"I don't think so, but you girls are familiar." I said while laughing softly and offered my hand. "I'm Liam."

"Yeah, you seem very familiar but there's no way in heaven that we have met, we just came here in this place to look for our friend." Ivana said.

"Oh, who's friend are you looking for? We might help you to find her." Jiroo said and pulled my hand as the blonde was still shaking my hand while still staring at my face.

"Hera, Hera Areios."

"Hera?!" Jiroo and I exclaimed in unison.

"Yeah, you know her?" Selene asked.

"The thick girl—." I immediately elbowed Jiroo to stop him from spitting embarrassing words. "I mean, Hera, Nami's new roommate?" Jiroo said while coughing.

"You know Hera?!" The three of them asked simultaneously.

"Yeah, she just moved in yesterday."

"Can you bring us to her? We badly need to see her!" Ceres said enlivened and grabbed both of Jiroo's hands.

"S-sure." Jiroo stutters and I almost snorted a laugh when I saw how red his cheeks were. The fucker is really weak when it comes to cute women.

"Thank you so much! You're really a life saver, Jiroo!" Ceres said and hugged Jiroo who choked on his own saliva as Ceres' boobs slammed to Jiroo's face.

Damn! I want that too, but with Hera.

"Stop it, Ceres, you're making him uncomfortable." Ivana said and pulled Ceres away from Jiroo.

"I-it's actually f-fine." Jiroo said while touching his cheek and his face became more red. I chuckled and wrapped my arm on his shoulder and started walking. "S-shit."

"You lucky nasty piece of shit." I whispered and poke his side which caused him to jump a little and slapped my arm.

"Sometimes, saving someone will have something good in return." He said with cockiness while wiggling his eyebrows.

"Horny rascal." I snort and ruffle his hair.

—

The place where we saved the girls isn't that far from our apartment and it only takes five minutes walk before we stopped in front of Nami's apartment.

"We're here, but I don't know if they are already here." Jiroo said before pressing the doorbell relentlessly. The smile on his lips never fades since Ceres hugged him earlier and whenever Jiroo will steal a glance at the blonde, his face gets red. I don't know if he was just shy or already fucking the blonde inside his mind.

"I don't think they were already h—." My words were cut off when someone spoke behind us.

"G-girls?"

We all turned to see whose voice was that and I saw how Hera's face became pale and her widened eyes looking at the three girls in stunned surprise with Ayu and Nami standing behind her with lots of paper bags in their hand.

Don't tell me, I am now broke?

"Hera!" Ivana was the first one who screamed upon seeing her friend.

"W-what are you doing h-here?" Hera asked, stuttering.

"Long story! But we're glad that we found you." Ceres said as she engulfed Hera's petite body and my eyes immediately went to her breast who got squeezed.

Nami cleared her throat to get the attention of the girls who seemed to get so excited for their mini reunion and which caused me to tear my gaze away from Hera's boobs.

"May I know who you might be?" She asked.

"Oh we're Hera's friend." Selene said and bowed her head slightly to Nami.

"Oh I see." Nami said while nodding her head and her gaze shifted to me and shot me a dagger look. "Why are you still outside?"

"We just arrived before you." I said and stole the last glance to Hera who's still in shock before I walked towards the other door and pressed my passcode.

As soon as I stepped inside my apartment, I ran upstairs and quickly took off all of my clothes and ran to the bathroom.

Damn! Hera's perfect body gives me feelings that I shouldn't have felt and this is partly Jiroo's fault! That damn little pervert shit!

I clenched my eyes hardly as soon as the cold water started soaking my body and my hand slid down to my hard length and started stroking it slowly while imagining how Hera's boobs got squeezed and I'm imagining them in my palms while squeezing them.

"Ah s-shit." I groaned as I started stroking it faster and it didn't take too long before I jerked off my little babies on the wall as my legs trembled. "F-fuck!" I hissed.

I can't believe that I jerked off just by imagining Hera, it's really Jiroo's fault, yes, no one's to blame but that horny shit.

After the procrastination inside the bathroom, I continued taking a bath and covered my lower body with the towel before stepping out of the bathroom. I suddenly felt thirsty and decided to go into the kitchen to have a glass of water.

As soon as I shut the door behind me, Jiroo did the same in his room and we both stared at each other because we are both wearing towels on our lower bodies.

"Don't say a word." I warned him immediately when he opened her mouth but the typical Jiroo would still say what he wanted to say.

"I can't believe that we did it at the same time."

"I told you not to say a word." I said disappointedly while shaking my head.

"We're really meant to be friends, Liam." He said as he started walking downstairs.

"Just what exactly the fuck did you guys do?!" Ayu exclaimed when he looked over her shoulder and saw us descending from the stairs, both wearing towels only.

"Took a bath/ masturbated."

"What the fuck Jiroo?!" I yelled and slapped his arm.

"What? That's true."

"That's disgusting!" Ayu shrieks and throws the pillow on my face. "Urgh! I swear to Demons! I shouldn't have waited for y'all asses!"

"I did not masturbate!" I denied and threw back the pillow at her.

"Tch! I heard you moaning inside your bathroom." Jiroo scoffed.

"What the hell?! What are you even doing in my room!" I snarled at him.

"I was told to give back your credit card."

"You guys are unbelievable!" Ayu growled as she stood up and walked towards the door.

"No! Ayu, that's– wait! Let me– urgh!" I groaned when Ayu slammed the door abruptly.

"Oohh, sister got mad at her siblings." Jiroo teased while snickering.

"Fuck you!" I sneered at him before I padded to the kitchen to get myself a glass of water. Jiroo followed me inside the kitchen and poured water into another glass for himself and acted like he didn't do anything just awhile ago.

"I hope Nami will let them stay in her apartment." He said while leaning his back on the sink.

"Yeah? So you can have a chance to fuck one of those girls?" I mocked and jumped to sit on top of the countertop.

"Nah.. I only want that tall, blonde and gorgeous girl."

"You mean Ceres?" I asked and he nodded his head with his creepy smile. "You like her?"

"Yeah, not the way you're thinking and I know you will laugh at me, but I think I have a crush on her." Jiroo said and lowered his head to hide his blushing face.

It's ridiculous to laugh at him if I know to myself that I felt the same way to Hera when I saw her that night. Those captivating cat-like eyes, her luscious lips and her body is just so urgh! I couldn't get her out of my mind since that night, I like her, I really do but I also can't be nice to her whenever I get to see her.

I'm so fucked up!

"Liam!" I was snapped out of my deep thought when Jiroo shouted my name and I saw him standing on the sink.

"What are you doing up there?!" I asked raggedly.

"There's a fucking cockroach! Kill it!" He said while pointing at the cockroach on the floor.

"Why me?! You saw it first!"

"Kill it! Damn it Liam! It's crawling!"

"You kill it!!" I shouted back to teased him more. I'm not really afraid in cockroaches, I just want to tease him because he's so fucking scared right now as his body trembling in fear.

"Liam! Oh my Gosh! If that shit crawls to me! I will kill you!"

"Why don't you kill it, Jiroo! You're the man!"

"Bitch when?" Jiroo asked and I literally dropped my jaw when Jiroo took off his towel and posed like some women in a Playboy magazine.

"Goddamn it Jiroo Aerios! Put it back! Oh my God! My eyes! Holy shit! I need an eye cleanser!" I'm shouting while rubbing my knuckles on my eyes violently.

"Kill it first!"

"Fine, fine! Just wear your goddamn towel!" I sneered and jumped off from the countertop and grabbed a jar and used it to lock the cockroach inside. "It's done! Now cover your dick!"

"I already did." Jiroo said as he jumped off from the sink.

"You son of a bitch!" I scowled at him and threw the jar but he immediately caught it.

"Liam! What the hell?!" Jiroo said and was about to hit me but we both stopped when we heard the doorbell rings.

"Get it!" I said and took the jar from his hand.

"I'm not wearing anything under this towel."

"And so do I, I get rid of the cockroach now it's your turn to get the door." I said and Jiroo huffed before turning his heels and ran to the door.

I decided to free the cockroach outside the window but I got startled when I heard Jiroo screamed loudly which caused the jar to slip on my hands and shatter on the floor.

"Jiroo!" I called and ran out of the kitchen but I bumped into Jiroo's body and we both stumbled on the floor. "What the hell, Roo?!"

"There are ghosts at the door!" Jiroo said frighteningly and crawled behind me and hid himself.

"W-what? A g-ghost?!" I stuttered and I immediately stood up but Jiroo grabbed the towel and it slipped away from my lower body, exposing my length.

"Holy shit, Liam! That was huge since the last time I saw that!"

I froze upon hearing that voice and even if I didn't look at the owner of that voice, I already knew whose voice it was.

"Shit, we came at the wrong time, aren't we?" Another voice said while laughing.

I slowly looked up to the people in front of me and my tears started streaming down my face when I saw the crackheads, my friends, my partners in crime, standing on the kitchen door while smiling at me widely.

Sean, Jonas, Rujin and Tom.

"Sean!" I shouted and I immediately jumped onto him to embrace him.

"Liam!" They all shouted back and engulfed me into a tightest hug as we all started to cry.
