Wasn't Suppose to End This Way by faze1315 (best books to read ever txt) 📕

but we both were harnessed and ready. I pulled tools from my bag, one of them a laser.
It was a normal laser that didn’t hurt anyone, but after I was through with it… Let’s just say, don’t mess with me. I picked up the piece of ceiling I just cut out and Venus hid it. I went down first, so I can disable the lasers, or traps that they think they can pull on us.
Venus came down after a while and we both went looking for the paintings we saw earlier. “We don’t have much time,” Venus whispered in my ear.
“I know,” I started to unhook the paintings from the wall and carefully placing them into the bag. Venus had his own bag, so it only took us a couple of minutes to get the paintings. Venus went back up and I started to hook the bags to the wire.
Outside I heard talking and some flashlights. “Venus the cops!” I ran into the kitchen and hid in one of many closets. All the lights turned on, but I could only tell from the light under the door.
“Looks like robbers already got here, everyone look around they might still be in here,” Then I heard about ten foots steps all walking around, looking under things, opening doors. The only thing I could hope for right now is that Venus made it away. Venus and I always said if cops come we have to go and leave the other person behind, no matter what.
My door opened up and Chief Cooper stood in front of me. His eyes were bulging out, but he didn’t say or do anything. “Nothing in here,” he winked at me and closed the door. After about half an hour I heard them leaving and I finally got to get out.
I stretched and made my way to the alley. In the distance I could hear the sirens slowing moving away. Nothing better to do, I walked the streets. I wasn’t dressed for the cold wind and I was defiantly not wearing the right shoes to run home.
After a couple of minutes Venus pulled up beside me, “Need a ride?” I thankfully hopped in and cranked up the heat.
“You were supposed to leave me behind,” I pointed out.
“Yeah well, we both knew that rule was a load of crap. You would stay for me, just like I stayed for you.”
“Maybe I would have left,” doubtfully.
Chapter Four

I tossed and turned in my bed, flashes of William kept me awake most of the night. He haunted my dreams every night and some mornings, but its only gets so bad that I can’t sleep once a week now. Before I couldn’t sleep at all.
I threw the blanket onto the floor and got out of bed. I peeked out of the hallway and snuck into Venus’ room. In our apartment we have three bedrooms, one’s mine, ones Venus, and one is when Venus has a new play thing. I don’t like hear screaming all through the night, at least when they are on the other side of the apartment I could crank up my music.
Venus’ room was about my size, he had a twin bed, a desk, and a bookcase. Nothing special. I shuffled toward him and lightly poked his arm. “Robin? What’s wrong?”
“Can I sleep with you tonight?” Venus shuffled to the edge of the bed, so I could have the wall on one side and him on the other. When I have nightmares I often come in here, so it isn’t awkward or anything.
“Having nightmares again?” He wrapped his arm around me and pressed each other bodies together; he doesn’t have enough room on his bed for us not to be close.
“Yeah,” I used his chest as a pillow. “Thank You Venus.”
“I already told you,” he started to play with the ends of hair, “you always have an invite in my bed.” He kissed the top of my head.
Venus slept with his shirt off and blankets on the floor, so I made sure to cuddle closer to him. I studied the picture on his desk, the only picture he has. It is of him and I at the circus. Venus had asked a random person to take a picture of us together, but I didn’t realize what was happening at the time. I was eating some cotton candy when Venus came behind me, wrapped his arms around me, and kissed my cheek. We were both were looking at the camera, but my eyes were as big as does.
When I asked Venus if he could delete it, he laughed. I told him we had millions of pictures of us on the camera, but he insisted to keep that one. When I was caught trying to delete it, he printed it out and framed it to punish me. It was last year on my birthday. Every time I walked in here, I got pissed looking at the picture, but now… I am happy he keeps a picture of us in his room; even if I look dorky.
“Robin stop,” Venus moaned. I looked down; my hand was lightly brushing his abs and his chest. Playing with the little hair he had on his chest and messing with the strings of his sweat pants. I must have been redder than a tomato; when I looked up, Venus was blushing too.
“Sorry,” I laid my head back on his chest trying not to mess with him this time. I studied the picture again, “We have to go back to the circus.”
“Yeah… but we are not going to go back to the elephant exhibit.”
“You just think elephants smell weird.”
“No, that elephant was giving me the death stare. I swear every time you looked at him he looked away.”
I silently laughed and wrapped my arms around Venus’ waist, “Thank you.”
“For what?”
“Staying behind, having my back, letting me in your bed; you could choose,” I squeezed him tightly. “Goodnight.”
“Sweet dreams, Robin.”
*****
I woke up slightly on top of Venus, our legs twisted with each other and my hand… down there! I could feel the slight bulge in the sweats and knew I should have took my hand off, but couldn’t. I looked up to confirm he was still asleep and lightly brushed the fabric. The bulge grew bigger and I quickly took my hand off before he woke up.
I laid my head in the crook of his shoulder, trying to sleep again, but couldn’t. My mind kept wandering, but I didn’t let my hand do the same. Instead I moved my leg closer to me, so it brushes him. I could feel his slight stir and pretended I was sleeping. His breathing picked up and I could feel him shift.
Venus moved me around a little bit, soft enough not a wake me and looked down. I could feel his movement; he slightly gasped, but kept still. He tugged the blanket on top of us. “Robin wake up,” he called my name a couple of time before I “woke up”.
When I did the first thing I saw was his smile and his inflamed cheeks. “Morning,” I moved the hair away from his eyes, “What is our schedule today?”
“First I need to take a shower,” he motioned with his head with our legs tangled. Inside I was frowning, but I put on an opps face and moved my legs around till we were separated.
“Don’t you need to take a shower?” I laid my head on his pillow.
“Yeah, but what rude gentleman would get out of bed first, you could go,” he awkwardly smiled.
“No,” I snuggled into his bed, “I think I will stay here.” I watched Venus pull the blanket around him and went to get his clothes and towel.
“I’ll be out in a couple of minutes.”
After a big whiff of Venus’ pillow, I went back to my room to take a shower as well. I came back out in some nay shorts and a white tee. Venus was in the kitchen by the time I got out, sipping on some black coffee. “How was your shower?”
“Cold,” he turned to the sink and put his cup in. I grabbed the cereal from the cabinet and milk from the refrigerator. He grabbed the cereal out of my hands and pulled two bowls out. He poured the cereal and I poured the milk.
We both sat down at the table and awkwardly ate out food. “So… what are we doing today?” I stirred my cereal, but I wasn’t hungry much. Actually I don’t remember why I even took some.
“Well first we have to go down to the black market and see if we can sell any of those pictures we got from the restaurant. Later we need to scope out the warehouse.”
“That is today?”
“Yeah, we planned it yesterday,” he pulled out his chair and stood, “You were there.”
“I know, but we usually get a week or a little more before we do a heist.”
“Well this is the chief of police,” he picked up my bowl and placed both in the sink, “we better not piss him off.”
“I guess,” I went back to the room to change in to something more appropriate. Dark black skinny jeans with a blue tank top and a pinstriped vest. I slipped on my white heels and made my way to the door.
“You ready to go?”
“I guess, could you help?” Venus came towards me, a tie around his neck. He always had a difficult time tying his tie.
“I show you every time you ask, how you have not learned by now is a clue to me,” I stepped forward and straightened his collar. I tried focusing on the tie, but Venus was breathing down my neck. He smelt like pinecones and woodchips. A man’s smell. I looked up, inches away from his face, getting closer and closer, but the doorbell rung.
He snapped away from me and went to the door. “Daniela!” He kissed her and lead her into the house. “You remember Robin?”
“How could I not remember that pretty face of hers,” she walked up to me and pinched one of my cheeks. “The pretty roommate of my boyfriend, how could I not?” She sneered at me, squeezed my cheek a bit harder, and turned back to Venus. “You look handsome, but your tie!” She undid what I started and retied it. She looked up at Venus and pecked his lips, the kiss that was supposed to be mine.
“Thanks,” he looked at me before wrapping his arm around her waist pulling her towards him. “How could I repay you?”
“Yuck,” I grabbed the key from the bowl and walked out before having to witness anything. I swiped the tears that were starting to form and ran down the stairs to the garage. In my car, there was a makeup bad in the make and I quickly touched up. There were no signs that I felt
