That next morning, Sarah woke up alone. She slowly rubbed her eyes and wanted to find anyone since it was so quiet.
"Mmmm...." she mumbled out. Being alone was also a scary thing for her. As she got to the door she then went idol girls room, only to find Miko alone. wondering where everyone was. She took notice of Sarah and approached her.
"Hm?" She was still sleepy. Ultimately picked up by Miko and together entered the bedroom she was sleeping in and no one was inside it.
"Oh man, did we miss them?" Miko asked.
Sarah shakes her head waking up more. "No... they're next door... everyone." She mumbled.
"Sure, well get them out of bed." Miko said as she carried Sarah and now outside they ended up knocking on the door.
In the hall way, some delinquent young men, the same from earlier in the lobby making problems, walked through their hall, they didn't know what they were gonna do yet, but that changed seeing miko, alone with Sarah in a hall. As they heard her call for anyone awake.
"You alone babe." A man's voice said behind her, as she seemed to have been surrounded.
Miko lowered Sarah, keeping her behind herself. "Im not, not back off weirdo." All the while hiding fear as goosebumps were felt across her body.
They weren't shy about displaying who they were. Or what their intention was. Their voice full sadistic mannerisms and a hint of violance in the air by the man's words.
"Im not seeing anyone... you don't have to lie. And besides, you must know who we are." The young man grabbed her waist. All while a few other grabbed her arm and another took Sarah away from her back.
"Ow!! Let go of me!" Sarah said. Being grabbed roughly and pulled away.
"If you know what's good for you, I'd let her go!" Miko said, suddenly feeling a sense of dread not from them.
"Oh yeah..." the man then pulled out his gun, just flexing it against her lower stomach. While the other men held a knife to Sarah face.
"My father owns this building... no ones gonna stop me... so you either join us... or the kid... get unwanted attention." he threatened.
Only it was then to late. The door opened, the same one miko was knocking on.
"Sarah..."
"Big brother! Help!" She pleaded.
Before the man raised his gun up to Drake. He swiftly slipped out already taking the gun and without mercy. Without hesitation, or even a warning or daring jab. Drake had just, shot at the man's head killing the one groping miko and the leader of the goons. Next he aimed it to the two holding Sarah double tappping as he pulled the trigger to kill the other men. And the last two. As one tried to speak he shoves the gun barrel Into his mouth and pulled the trigger. The last man couldn't react. He was just a teenager, but killed four men without a fiber of regret and with the ease of an experienced killer. He fell the to floor in fear of Drake.
As Drake walked up to the man, Drake moved the gun to the man's temple.
"Do you enjoy tormenting people?" Drake asked.
"..." the man in fear couldn't answer. "You killed them...."
"Thats not the answer to my question... something tells me... you goons, have done this countless times... shamed so many woman... killed families... now that your gonna meet death... I ask. Do you regret any of it?" Drake looked him in his eyes.
The man just nodded. "I do..." but there was no truth in that in the man's own voice.
"Draky..." Sarah whimpered. Seeing the side Drake hid from her. This... sadistically and cold version of him.
"Even after all that... you still lie..." Drake said killing off the last man. Drake got up and looked at miko and Sarah.
Sarah, felt fear. But also. A sense of admiration. Her older brother. Saved her again. How bad can he be. He was her hero she rushed to hug his waist and spoke that. "You saved us!" She would still look at the best at him, not seeing how truly, vile it was all.
But can one blame her. She grew up in the same broken abusive home. Blood, drugs and prostitution of their mother is seriously all they knew. Strange men coming to their place, talks about the value of a person. No one could really remain. Innocent. In their world of exploitation and abuse.
Miko, who now seen his true cruelty, shakingly approached him. "You okay?"
"That's my line." Drake told her patting his sister on her head. "are you?"
"Yeah... just. His gross hands were on me..." miko then relaxed. "Um... what are we gonna do about this?" She asked.
"Don't worry about it. The cameras saw you getting groped and Sarah get taken... not to mention they held you both at gun point. Cops will just bury these idiot." Drake said still holding the gun. "Sarah, never play with one of these... got it." He told her. Grabbing the man by his shirt to wipe the prints and put it back on his person. "Let's go to your room. Everyone is still asleep in mine." Drake said shutting the door.
"Im surpised they didnt hear the gun shots..." miko said.
"Trust me... nothing is gonna wake them up for a while... let me get cleaned up in other room and we can head down for breakfast." Drake said, with calmness, and with blood that wasn't his still on his person. He needed another shower.
Miko, unsure of what to make of him. He was still a teen. Like her. Like her friends. Like the other girls still in school. Yet, here he stood blood on him. Killing without a care about the weight of it. And his sister, who just witnessed his brutality, still hugging his side. How can she be unbothered. Or was she just afraid of him to really reject this part of him.
She then got closer. "Sarah... let's let him get clean up... no blood got on you did it?" Miko asked. Not trying to convince herself to be afraid. This man, saved her. Saved his sister. He took the responsibility of savior and protector for their sake. This display of his nature he has suppressed is not to be afraid of. Its a part of him thats he's willing to carry if it meant he can do still do good.
"Nuh uh." Sarah said as she then held miko's hand. "Let's have pancakes." Sarah spoke as they went back to the room she was in. Leaving the corpses of the men behind them. Drake left alone a moment would then call the staff down bellow, letting them know of the dead bodies. It soon became a hole thing. How could it not thanks to the infamy those goons had.
Police came down, and couldn't exactly arrest a person saving two young girls in a form of self defense. However, while at the moment they didnt. The police were corrupt, and so they reported to the local mafia boss in the area. His son, was just killed and with dangerous efficiency, as he would surmise.
This mob boss was very unhappy, but not surprised.
"That idiotic boy of mine..." he let out a large sum of smoke as his wife angrily spoke up.
"Our boy was just murdered and thats what you say? Find and kill the one who did this?!" She said.
"He had it coming... his behavior was beyond repulsive and he was always an offense to the family... im just surprised it wasn't an enemy... another mafia, or street gang. It was some teenage brat who did him in... haha talk about pathetic." He got up and then continued. "But make no mistake... he will still pay for killing our son."
Much later that afternoon. Drake was seated with Sarah on his lap as he was feeding her breakfast. It wasn't the correct time, but seeing pancakes, sliced fruit, and he was just in a plain white shirt, with also long swim trunks, and a themed button white top that was open they looked for ready for the beach and this little trip than the other. Sarah was dressed in a sundress and laid out was a sun hat. She had sandles and ate happily.
Miko dressed lightly, with a long white skirt, black crop top.
And finally, the other girls began to come down. They dressed much differently but fir the summer heat and beach. his girls wore skirts, others in shorts, or just a a short sun dress. They each had a small bag with the only material beings the bikini's they planned to wear later. Or already under their clothes.
"Geez! What took you all so long to wake up?" Sarah asked.
The queen sat down stretching her arms back and up. "Nothing like a good night to feel so young again." She was smiling ear to ear.
Marry then spoke up next. "Sorry sweetie. We drank a bit."
Jess last of all the mothers. "Uh huh... dont worry we're all here now... so let's have fun on the beach."
Sarah let it go happily, glad to know everyone was gonna now ready for the beach.
Drake felt himself receiving looks from the three mothers. He just stared off, not exactly in the mood to play with them. He did just kill people when he woke up. So to be flirty with them now felt odd.
The queen noticed. "Did something happen, your not exactly talkative dear?"
Sarah spoke up. "Big brother took down some bad guys!"
He felt a cold sweat. "Sarah.. you didnt have to tell them..."
"Like hell!" Marry said. "Are you okay."
Jess worried got up and checked on him too, touching his hair moving to see his face as she moved his hair and looked to his neck also.
"Im fine!" He said not stopping Jess. Knowing they were just concerned. "Miss jess... please sit, im okay, but what im gonna say may scare you."
She was scared already.
"Five mem tried to harass me and they threaten Sarah's life." Miko spoke up.
"Then are you two okay?" The queen asked.
"We are!" Sarah chimed.
"I took care of the problem. Police already took the bodies away." Drake said swiping a piece of diced watermelon into his mouth.
Jess noticed his wording. "So... you..."
"He did." The queen said.
"I thought everyone was kidding... oh my." Jess said.
"Scared of me." Drake asked.
"No... how can I, you look adorable eating watermelon at the moment. Besides... you did the same at the warehouse... I heard from my husband... I just... wasn't sure if I did want to believe it... but please come to me if you need to unwind" Jess said.
While she meant it with sincerity, and not at all inappropriately, marry and the queen stared at her in an obvious was calling her a pervert. And a serious adulterous woman from her stare.
Drake just chuckled knowing what she meant.
They began to gossip teasing Jess.
Soon after, the girls all came over. They were slower for a much obvious reason to him. As they even struggled for sit. All but Alex actually.
"Oh god!" Noelle said unable to sit properly. The other girls also struggled.
"You get use to it..." Alex said. While calm, she was actually having a moment herself.
"You girls should eat lightly before we go to the beach." Drake told them.
They all suddenly glared at him.
He was confused and rushed.
"What did you do?" Sarah asked.
"You were... way to wild." Alex said to him.
"What choice did I have!" He defended. "One of me... and all of you... I had to be... and dont glare at me... we all know you had fun." Drake was blushing. Acting more bashful and far more normal now for his age.
The girls just stayed silent. Unable to defend his counter. As he was absolutely right. But not happy about him.
Drake then got up setting Sarah on her feet. "I'll get the stuff for the beach, you ladies relax."
"Leaving us defenseless?" The queen teased.
"Please... you can defend them." He said to her as he walked with Sarah back to the bedroom so they could pack a bag full of beach supplies.
"True..." the queen would relax and everyone began to chat about Drake and the group sex they just had last night with him.
"How much did you teach him." Marry wondered.
"Anything and everything i could... even put him on supplements so he can hold out... im also amazed though.. he lasted so much longer than I thought, i kinda expected him to be worn out after one round with everyone." The queen chuckled amazed and impressed.
"We did it until morning... did he even sleep?" Marlene asked.
"Wait!" Miko spoke up. "Morning? As in... sunlight. When I knocked on his door he came out and saved us... your telling me he never slept?!"
Everyone felt bad. But also held back a soft smile.
Miko realized. If she didnt knock when she did. He would have been asleep not able to help them. It was the perfect window of time.
But she also said. "Your all degenerates! Let him rest tonight!"
Everyone agreed. But, no shame was felt among them. Just a humble nod in agreement.
In his assigned room, Drake would pack a duffle bag with much of the necessities, beach towel, mat, sunscreen, sunglasses.
After packing the duffle bag, he stretched his legs, arms and back, being as flexible as he needed to prepare the rest of the day. Soon, his sister came out the bathroom in her swimsuit. A two piece, white matching set with a frilly layer over both pieces. He held her hand as they left. Both of them in sandles, he removed his button top. Staying in just the white shirt, as they went down to meet with everyone as they all were ready to go. They walked out the hotel and went to the beach that was just across the street.
"We're gonna change, why dont you find us a spot." Alex said to him.
"Sure..." he agreed and went to look around. It was very sunny, and bright out. He would find a space and lay down the mat for him and Sarah to sit down. Shed grab an air pump at his mention as she began to fill up toys for them to use. He dug up sand to fit an umbrella and then thought of drinks. Their were stalls around but he waited for the others so Sarah wasn't alone. He soon sat down helping fill up the water toys with air.
"Did I ever teach you to swim?" Drake asked Sarah.
"No." She answered.
"But your not scared of the water are you?"
"No."
"Would you like to learn?"
"Yes please." Sarah was focused on the air pump.
"I'll teach you once everyone shows up... but hey, make sure your having fun. If you wanna play in the sand, go play, or wanna just splash, the go splash... have fun today okay." He told her.
"I will!" She smiled to him.
Drake's face soften. He was happy to see that she wasn't afraid of him. Or the incident ealier didnt shake her up.
It made him happy, that he was glad about how they were raised. Awful in every way still, which made him also dislike that she had to just grow up mentally that way. It was good and bad. But nothing could be done. He just wanted her to have a normal childhood. Something he was robbed of, both of them were. Even if it was in brief moments. She also had to help thier drugged mother. Endure abuse if Drake never got home in time.
Letting out a deep sigh, he would put those memories behind. He didnt have hide anything anymore. And the past is long over now. They had their home. He may still need to do bad things. But that was fine. But, he knew he had to stop. But when. Why doesn't he now?
Suddenly, he was hit by a beach ball at the side of his head. It was very light so no actual hurt was felt. But he then looked amd saw Sarah. Smilling and then got apologetic.
"Hehe... sorry."
"Hmph... ha no you meant it." Drake smiled.
"Kinda, can we play?" She asked.
"Hmm... put on sunscreen." Drake told her. "Its gonna hurt if you dont. But after we can." He said, and sitting up and removed his shirt.
"Let me help!" Sarah said grabbing the sunscreen.
"What do you mean?"
"I can put the sunblock on you! I never get to help you. Let me." She said.
He thought on it. But then just agreed. "Fine..."
"Lay on your stomach!" She said looking proud to finally help him. It was just a minor act but she was thrilled.
Drake would do as she said and was worried. His scars would be exposed.
Sarah, for a moment did see his back, scanned and then smacked her cold hands on his back with the ointment.
"Hey!" Drake yelped, but chuckled.
"I gotcha!" She began to apply the sunscreen on his back and just laughed. "Horse!" She said.
He could only laugh. "Sure sure..." hed then suddenly feel her hands stop.
"Draky..." her voice softer than normal.
Hed noticed and, asked. "Yeah?"
"Am I trouble for you?" She asked. A somewhat, mature question.
Hed then answered calmly. "No. Im just a big brother remember... I need to make sure your safe... that your taken care of. Can I ask you something baby sis?"
His answer to her, caught her off gaurd. And suddenly his question gave her un expected anxiety. "Yeah?!"
"Am I still your hero?" He asked.
"Yes!" She said almost right away. "You... kept the bad people away from us... you also helped my other big sisters right? And the other moms! Your a super hero!" Shed say.
Drake. Would remain silent. But glad her mood shifted back. He then teased. "You stopped... and missed my lower back with the sunscreen sis."
"Ah!" Shed then continued again.
"How cute."
"Now what's this?"
Two voices heard, as Drake looked up he saw the girls. All of them in their bikini's and swimsuits. Upon looking up he watched Anna crouch down and rose next to her as they poked drake's cheek.
"You look more like a father and daughter than siblings." Marlene said.
"Stop teasing him. Plus, look at him, he's having fun, let him be." Jess said.
Drake sighed. "Your all jealous I get it..." he teased. "Sarah beat ya to it."
Alex kicked some sand. "Nice one tough guy. Now are you gonna say anything about our outfits?"
"Sarah, can I get up." He said which she got off.
Drake stood up, stretching himself as they suddenly felt his imposing body and height again. Drake then. Took a good look at them and smiled. "You all look amazing."
"Just amazing?" The queen asked.
"Sexy too of course. Now please, get under the shade... ill put sun screen on you." Drake offered.
"Really?" Miko asked.
"No, just my girl." Drake said honest.
Which his girls felt of course thrilled to be spoiled.
"Boo." The queen added, but understood. "Fair enough, but we girls can treat each other. Come on." She grabbed both Jess and Marry's hands to lay on the shade.
Miko and the other idols girls gathered with them and Sarah went as well at marry's call.
Drake standing with his girls he picked up the sun screen. "Who's first?" He asked.
They all felt the need to close their legs. After seeing the white paste of the sunscreen, he'd notice a fidget from the less experienced. Alex and Nicole just snickered.
"Whats wrong? Come on ladies, lay down, ill take care of you one at a time."
"Why do you have to say it like that." Alex said walking behind her.
"You two first then... why dont the rest of you sit down under the shade..." Drake said.
Marlene was concerned, he was exposing his scars. His battles, his wounds from his upbringing openly.
"Should you really take off your shirt?" Marlene asks.
Alex laid down on her stomach, tossing her hair aside and undid her bikini string of her top to let him thoroughly feel her back.
Drake gently applied the cold sunblock and shrugged. "Eh, I don't care who sees... plus, it'll be a natural detergent. If people stare at you lovely girls... they'll need to be aware im here too. And not touch what belongs to me."
"Won't stop people from trying though." Rose commented sat up watching Drake move his hands up and down Alex's back, sides and even down her legs.
"True, however, I also know im here to keep them safe... I know you girls got bite. Just dont main the poor idiots who hits on you." Drake leaned over to kiss Rose on her lips. And after a second, even feeling her lean in, he then let Alex sit up. "All done. You now." He said to Noelle as she then did the same.
Alex, careful held her top up with her arm looking at rose.
Which she nodded and helped tie back up her top. Alex finished applying the sunblock to herself.
"We can't make any promises." Anna said.
"So how are you girls feeling?" Drake asked.
"Hes not asking us." Noelle chimed. As Alex also agreed.
Marlene lost at what he meant, Anna and Rose blushed.
"Okay.... I guess." Anna said.
"It was everything I could have wanted. " Rose admitted holding her fingers up to her lips smilling. "Worth every day of waiting. Can we do it more regularly?" She asked.
Marlene, would then realize. And listened intently.
"Of course. If thats what you want. Im not gonna say no if that also helps. But, lets not push it... all of you should enjoy the trip, well have more nights together soon." Drake said.
Noelle would sit herself up. And was helped by Alex.
Soon, Anna and Marlene would lay down. Anna had on a one piece, so more bad to be removed just down to her waist.
"You know Drake... you haven't complimented us individually... say something now." Alex said, being much more feminine than her tomboyish nature.
Drake was quiet, as he moved up and down Anna's back. He couldn't help but snicker since she was more covered than the others.
"Whats funny?" Anna asked, thinking he was mocking her figure.
"Just that... your the most covered out of everyone... should I really apply much sunscreen to you." He admitted.
Anna pouted.
"Im not stopping dont worry." He said. "If you girls really wanna know what Im thinking right now... about your swimsuits... ill say it. I want to screw you all again." There was a causal tone to his voice.
"Hey." Rose mumbled out to him.
"You all look gorgeous... Alex, your blue bikini matches the highlights in your hair. And it hugs you just right. It makes my mind race wild seeing you." Drake added.
Alex, wasn't sure what to say, but she instinctively tried to cover her body with her hands. She didnt like to admit it. But she loved being treated like a maiden. More than the others, she wanted to be treated like a delicate piece of art. He knew that and indirectly hit her where she loved to be noticed.
"Anna... I adore your bratty attitude. Its refreshing, your not easy, but your not hard either to get. Your body has its charms too. Sure, you may not have ample breast like the others... but your petite figuer is just as attractive to me... I can hold you close, and feel your heart race. A closeness that reminds me, im no longer just an enforcer... that I can still be just a man with a woman I care about too." Drake would take his hands off of her waist and watch her squirm as she sat up blushing.
"Your so mean to me. You didnt say anything about my swimsuit like you did alex." She covered her chest with both her hands.
Drake leaned closer helping her slip the arms of her one piece back on her. "The pink color shows that you wanted to be spoiled like a princess and tells me your a like more childish... it makes me want to keep protecting you and keep you safe... and it looks lovely on you too. Your adorable and the simplicity i find suits you... its another flavor to what i already know of you."
She blush and get up only to then huddle by Alex.
"Me now hun." Rose said.
He'd move over and agree. "For the longest, im admired you." He said rubbed her back with sunblock. "You are much like a gem. one i had to work hard to earn. And when you did finally become mine... I wanted nothing more than to take you everywhere... to places you weren't normally able to. But also, your red bikini, matches your name. In such a way I dont mind the thorns. But I guess im the ones who prickly... im sorry to have made you wait for so long... and I hope we have a night all alone, one long and ravenous night."
Rose melted in his touch. She had to wait. Thanks to her mother having such restrictions on when she would lose her virginity. While abnormal to a normal house, they were raised in anything but. So to finally be touched, seen, held by Drake, brought her joy. And to hear he wanted to spend even more time with her in return. She practically was soaked again from how closed her legs, even slipping her arm between her body and the mat beneath her. "Telling me you want me only gets be hot and bothered hun... dont finish okay." She told him practically biting her finger knuckle in her other hand.
Drake leaned over blowing a gentlt breeze of air on her neck.
Her legs went straight as she sat up. "I can finish...." she said. Turning away.
Drake watched her back, as her hand, the same one that was between her, was up to her lips.
"Lay down now." He said to Marlene.
"And what about me?" Noelle asked. Helping rose tie her bikini.
"Your purple bikini, blends so well with your white hair and eyes, your body. While mature, is so invigorating and inviting in my eyes that i cant help but want you by my side. And while you have your share of battles, and We may have not know one another for long... we're cut from the same cloth... we both know how lonely we could be... but we have each other. I know, if something comes up, that I feel is to much to share with the others... I can share with you. Not that I dont intent to hide anything from all of you ladies... but, she can see what im feeling in the moment. A type of closeness, only she can see. And I can see in her. So if she ever feels differently, ill tell you all... and if I feel strange, she better tell you all." Drake. Made it sound like a lot of responsibility. But in a way, it was saying that she was capable. That if they can't depend on him in the moment, go to her. He put faith in her accepting her like she was so accepting of them and him.
Her heart beated loudly. She was being genuinely loved and looked out for.
"And... me..." Marlene asked tugging on his trunks gently with her fingers.
"You..." he thought, before holding her hand. "Your beyond accepting of me... of them... your so sweet and loving, but I also know you have a side that scratches... you didnt judge me when we met. Helped me when you could. Your everything I could wish for... because your a piece of all these girls all in one..."
"A... And my bikini... does it... turn you... on." She mumbled.
"It does." He chuckled. "The white color only highlights how pure you are... but it also suits you... im not just talking about your personality... your breast are perfect, your waist i can hold onto without relent and your body is soft to the touch..." he would tease her the most, but was be honest.
All of then didnt feel like competition to one another.
He just said she was like all of them in one.
Indirectly flattering them all.
Marlene was red all over her toes rubbing together.
Drake got up. "Finish putting on sunscreen ladies... im gonna get cold drinks and stuff." He got up and walked away.
All while they were left alone. Marlene, sat up, quivering.
"You okay?" Alex asked. Her hand between her legs. Her skin just as sensitive.
They all weren't able to compose themselves. Last night's events still so fresh, mind and body and soul.
Drake sighed out heavily. "Ooooh man..." standing back up straight, he had on a smile on his face. As he stretched his limbs and began to walk further to the stalls and crowd that were up. He'd carefully fix the necklace he'd put on today, and saw some sunglasses he thought would fit his look. So he bought them along with a bag of ice and fruit cups to put in that bag to keep it all cool. He would walk back also with cupholders full of cool drinks. He would get some looks for his body, the notable long scars and marks the girls made. But he walked with pride and not a bit of shame it was all confidence.
At the mat under the shade, the girls would all finish apply sunscreen to their faces and the fronts of their figures as they soon got up having calmed down. They also stretched and proceeded to walk out to the sun all of them brighter and attracting the attention of the men and woman. They joined everyone else in the water, as Sarah was being helped to learn to swim by Jess they would all soon have fun.
Drake dropped the cool items down covering them in a wet towel to further stay cool, getting the wet towel from a nearby fountain that was used to get sand off. He'd come over to call for the girls who already been out to come cool off. Jess, holding Sarah's hand walked to him, as he let them know of the cold drinks. As well as let the idol girls enjoy. Marry and the queen would go take a break too and Drake joined the rest of the girls in the water. It was in turns how they spent time together as they spend that sunny and bright afternoon relaxing and just being their age, having fun in the water.
They all got to feel normal. They got to be, normal. A beach ball was tossed, beach volleyball was played. And many pictures were taken. Fruit would be eaten, and casual talks had. For a single moment. Life was normal for them. Life felt it was rewarding them for just this single moment.
