midnight out of control

He, the gray-black coat on Curtis's body has some wrinkles and water stains, which are the tears that Jack wiped off just now. "It can be seen that you are in a hurry, and you don't even have time to change your clothes." The princess smiled.

Curtis was extremely embarrassed and stood stiffly without saying a word.

The princess curiously stretched out her hand to smooth those wrinkles, and whispered to Curtis, "Is the father okay at the border?"

Curtis was silent for a few seconds, and said solemnly: "The king has passed away. My condolences, princess."

"It's impossible." The princess left Curtis's hand and looked at him with a smile, "If the father really passed away, you wouldn't come back at this time."

Curtis raised his eyes to confront her. The princess's eyes were clear, as if she knew everything. Curtis said coldly, "I'm just following orders."

The princess's eyes were quite meaningful, and she looked through Curtis to the bathroom at the end of the corridor. Curtis followed her gaze and saw that there was nothing at the end of the corridor. Jack was still in the bathroom and hadn't come out.

Curtis took the princess's hand and kissed it lightly.

"Farewell." He turned and left without even looking at the princess.

The princess looked at the creases on his coat, and was puzzled to find that even the back of Curtis's coat was uneven...as if it had been pulled by both hands.

Jack was sitting in the bathroom, it was pouring rain outside, and the thunder was rumbling.The cold wind came in from the window, the coat was thrown on the ground, the buttons of the jacket were torn off, Jack was shivering from the cold, the smell of smoke was cold, pouring into his empty chest like mercury, he felt as if he was drowning.He shed tears in despair, feeling that Curtis had left far away with his heart, and would never come back again.

The bathroom light flickered a few times and then went out.The surroundings were dark, only the occasional flashes of lightning brought flashes of light, raindrops beating the ground, and drums were beating. Jack seemed to hear someone outside yelling that there was a power outage. The power outage brought chaos and voices, but Jack sat on the ground quietly In the dark, the cigarette butt flickered faintly, flickering on and off, like his heart that was taken away, jumping and swaying, he sat on the cold floor of the bathroom, smoked the last cigarette, got up quietly and left.

The coat was left on the spot, and Jack was walking slowly on the road with the cigarette case in his hand. The whole city was cut off, even the street lights were dark, and the heavy rain was pouring, like someone put the blue sea upside down on his head. Maybe it was Curtis's eyes, looking at him, Curtis must be very sad, there were so many tears flowing from his eyes, it wet the whole world.Jack didn't have an umbrella, and walked alone in the rain. He cried while walking. The rain mixed with tears and flowed down his chin into his clothes. Lick his whole body.His lips were blue and purple from the cold, and he was extremely embarrassed, but he walked forward slowly with difficulty.

He lives in the spotlight, as long as there is light, he must be a prince, and he can only be a prince.

There was a blackout, however, and no spotlights.The world was dark, and no one would pay attention to him anymore.

Curtis returned to the residence irritably, lay on the bed, and let him be his prince.Curtis thought this way, don't get close to him, don't ruin him.It was wrong from the beginning, he shouldn't know him, shouldn't touch him, shouldn't fall in love with him, shouldn't have desire for what he can't get, that's doomed to be only pain.

It started to rain outside, thunder and lightning flashed, and the lights in the room flickered a few times and went out. Maybe the engagement ceremony was halfway through, or maybe it couldn't go on.But what does it matter to me, Curtis thought, all this has nothing to do with me.

Curtis closed the window, and the surroundings were pitch black. The thick ink color was like his irresolvable grievances and hatred. He lay on the bed and turned his head to look at the lightning outside the window. They fell to the ground and boiled one after another, like the blood in his heart.

He opened his eyes and felt that all his loyalty and love for Jack were in vain.

There was a light knock on the door, and Curtis walked towards the door in doubt.

He opened the door, and in the flash of lightning, he saw a drenched Jack standing at the door, his clothes wrapped around his body, making him look thin and fragile, his pale face was wet, and he couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain .Curtis froze on the spot.

"Curtis," Jack said tremblingly, his voice seemed damp and indistinct in the rain, "destroyed me."

"Please, destroy me."

Jack smiled in a trance, feeling as if he had thrown himself to pieces from a height. Everything was completely out of control at midnight. He abandoned everything, but he didn't feel any pity at all.

Lightning and thunder, the violent wind blows open the windows and brings rainwater into the house. The house is dark and damp, and the smell of Curtis is overwhelming. Jack feels safer than ever in this cramped space. His back is pressed against the Curtis's chest, Curtis's breath sprayed on his neck, he turned around and kissed Curtis back, his hands kept groping on Curtis's body, using his fingertips to spy on every muscle, every drop of blood, Every inch of skin.He tried his best to remember this touch, to brand it on his soul.

Curtis was like a wronged but loyal dog. He buried his head on Jack's neck and said in a muffled voice, "Sometimes I really doubt what I am to you."

"Tell me, is all this true?"

As the rain gradually subsided, Jack curled up and let Curtis hug him completely.He stopped crying, spoke with a strong nasal voice, but whispered firmly: "You are the only truth in my life."

Curtis was moved, and a warm current surged in his heart, stirring endlessly. He pulled up the quilt to cover their embracing bodies, and the quilt quickly warmed up.He stretched out his hand to stroke Jack's hair, and said to Jack like coaxing a child: "Sleep? My baby."

Jack nodded, closing his eyes tiredly in the dark.After a few seconds, the lights on the ceiling flickered a few times and turned on.

Jack opened his red eyes and sat up, staring blankly at the light. Curtis sat up with him. Neither of them spoke anymore. The electricity in the city returned to normal and a call came.

Jack got up from the bed and looked for his clothes everywhere. His shirt was torn by Curtis and thrown on the floor. His pants were soaked and barely wearable, but when he put them on, he found that the buttons of the pants had fallen out of nowhere. .He had no choice but to pick up Curtis's trousers and put them on. Curtis was one size bigger than him, with a slightly longer hem and a little loose waist.It doesn't matter, if he picks and chooses, he has to leave today with his ass naked.

Curtis got out of bed and handed Jack his coat, watching Jack get dressed in silence.Curtis's gray-black coat was also a bit too big. Jack put it on naked, and it was empty inside, rubbing against his skin directly, as if Curtis was hugging him.

Curtis looked at him silently, with no emotion in his eyes.

He dodged his eyes and lowered his head not to look at Curtis.

"You are so brave, you shouldn't be timid." Curtis stood still.

"The lights are on." Jack didn't dare to turn his head, turned his back to Curtis and walked towards the door.

"Stop hiding, Jack."

Jack paused, his back was a little hesitant, but he still carefully opened the door. The rain had stopped and the ground was full of water. He walked away from Curtis's residence with one step deep and one step shallow.

Curtis leaned against the wall, tilted his head back, took a deep breath, his Adam's apple slipped up and down, his nose was sore, and finally he didn't hold back.

When Jack returned to the house, the lights were on, and an unexpected guest came to the house—the princess was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.

"Brother? As long as you are fine, everyone is looking for you." The princess got up and pulled Jack in from the door.

"What can I do?" Jack sat down, the pain in his thigh made him feel irritable, like sitting on pins and needles.

"You are a prince, you shouldn't run around late at night, I'm worried about you." The princess looked at him.

Jack raised his hand and patted the princess on the back comfortingly.

"Relax."

"Where have you been?" The princess stared at Jack's neck, her eyes began to change.

Uncomfortably, Jack pulled the collar of his coat up over his neck.

"Didn't go anywhere... for a walk."

"Walking in the rain? The clothes are all dry?" The princess looked at Jack amusedly, knowing that he was lying, she reached out to touch his clothes, and suddenly felt that the clothes looked familiar.

Jack's clothes were wrinkled at the chest, gray-black, and hung loosely around him.The lines of the folds were too clear, and the gray-black color was too familiar. Not long ago, the princess clearly saw another person wearing the same coat, and she even touched this coat.

She immediately remembered that the coat on her brother's body belonged to Curtis.

"..." Jack avoided the princess's hand and explained, "I went to sit at a friend's house for a while."

The princess withdrew her hand in embarrassment, she understood instantly, and she didn't point it out in surprise, but changed a deadly topic.

"Is father okay?" She looked at her brother eagerly.

"Father is dead." Jack raised his voice to remind him.

"I don't think he's dead." The princess looked into her brother's eyes, trying to find out, "You lied to everyone. Why did you do that."

"..." Jack was silent.

"You are too extreme, did you kill your father?" The princess asked him, "Why?"

"To save myself!!" Jack couldn't bear it anymore, slapped the table angrily, and shouted at her, "Don't you understand?!! I'm just taking my right to live!!!"

The princess had never seen her younger brother lose his composure like this, and she covered her mouth in disbelief, and she was even more convinced that Jack's father's murder was directly related to Jack.She looked at Jack in fear and couldn't help backing away.

Jack's eyes were horrifying, and he pressed forward, "What else do you want to know?"

The princess shook her head, not daring to stay any longer
