Evans stared at the blank canvas in front of him unblinking, he has been in this same position for twenty minutes now. His eyebrows twitched in annoyance and his hands shook in impatience. He had the picture, the paint, the beautiful brush that Gin had given him on his birthday with the green sharp end, but his hands refused to move.

Come on! Don't betray me now.

Giving a heavy sigh, he threw his brush away with annoyance. It flew to the end of the room and rolled till it was stopped by a table. Evans looked at it in frustration and decided to let his brush suffer on the cold hard floor for few minutes.

"What's wrong glasses?" A voice with a mocking tone laced in it said just behind him. Evans turned around to be faced with Louis Fellingway, the new artist from Paris with the fake British accent and a big mouth. The number one person in Evans 'People I hate List' also number one in 'People who will one day adore me list'. "Blank Canvas, what failed you this time? Your brush? Or your brain?"

"Ha ha, that was so funny Lewis." He rolled his eyes.

"It's pronounced Louis, without the 's' sound." He spat through gritted teeth, hands held in a tight fist.

"I know, I was being disrespectful!" Shooting him a cheeky smile, Evans turned to go get his brush but was stopped by a rough hand that grabbed his elbows. He turned around with a raised eyebrow. "Can I help you?"

"Mind the way you talk to me Faggot, I can make your life miserable."

"Yeah right, the only thing making my life miserable at the moment is your bad breathe, like seriously, my nostrils are screaming right-" He didn't see it coming on time, the clenched fist of Louis, it hit him the the jaw, the impact twisted his head to the side.

"How do you like that-" Louis started but was stopped by Evans who grabbed his plate of paint, and poured it over Louis. Taking advantage of his blinded situation, Evans raised his feet and gave a hard kicks to Louis balls, Louis went down on his knees groaning in pain, but standing up immediately, he ran in speed and rammed into Evan, together they both tumbled to the floor and the exchange of blows started.

Their fighting caught the attention of other busy artist in the room, and two men in blue uniform ran to separate them. Each of them grabbed the other, pulling Evans away who was still throwing kicks in the air.

"Bastard! I will break your nose!" Louis shouted trying to free himself from the strong hands of the security man.

"And I will burst your balls!" Evans said angrily, throwing kicks at the air.

"What's going on here!" The loud voice of the manager boomed as he walked into the room. He was met with Evans who already had a small bruise on his face and two of his top buttons missing and Louis, with the paint on his face and scratch marks. "You have to be kidding me?!"

"He started it Gin-" Evans started

"Doesn't matter who started it, what matters is that the both of you are grown men and you just behaved like teenagers. Pack your things and go home, don't come back till you have cooled yourself off Evans."

"Wait me? What about him?!"

"I have something to discuss with Mr Fellingway, who as I am speaking should start heading to my office." He turned around and walked away, Louis freed himself from the security men and went after him.

When they left, the room was in cold silence as all eyes turned to look at Evans. Evans was really a sweet person, but Louis was one man who knew how to provoke him. He shoot a smile at his fellow artist and turned around to pack his things. Muttering curses on Louis's generation, he carried his bag and walked out of the room, his head hung low. He had arrived the exit door when he spotted Aurora, a fellow artist coming out of Gin's office, anger written over here face. Louis stepped out also, with a smile, he looked at Evans way, who shot him the finger and walked out.

Stupid Lewis!

Sometimes he wondered why Gin made him the representative for the statesmanship award coming up, though he was talented, but he didn't deserve it.

He walked towards his bike which he had parked at the spaces created for the employees of Gin's artist. Just beside his bike was Louis black shiny car. He eyed it for a moment, it just begged for his keys.

Well, he kinda deserves it

Looking around the park space, he spotted no one, he brought out his apartment keys from his chest pocket quickly, bringing it to the car, he couldn't resist

Dick!!

Quickly he ran away, jumping on his bike and riding away while laughing to himself.

    Derek eyes were trained on Evans lips, he stared like though, hypnotized. Evans froze as he wondered if Derek would kiss him, he kept on staring at Evans lips like he was admiring a piece of art, a piece of art whose image he forever wanted imprinted in his head.Just when Evans thought Derek wouldn't go through with it, but just then, Derek lips slowly descended on his, he did nothing at first, like in fear Evans might move away, then like a switch was turned on, he claimed the lips.Evans eyes fluttered close as he brought his arms up, wrapping them around Derek, going on his knees, he moved around and straddled Derek. Their tongues fought for dominance but Evans gave up quickly at the feeling of the fireworks Derek's mouth created in his head. Derek pulled back, breathing heavily."I am sorry, I couldn't help myself Evans. I won't do this, if you don't want me to," He said while staring deep at the green orbs of Evans

    Evans had literally forced the clothes on Derek as he begged him to follow him over to Simon's for dinner"You won't go on a date with me, but you do this?" Derek asked as they walked out of the house."You never asked me out on a date Derek." Evans informed him."So, if I asked you out, would you say yes?" Derek asked, giving Evans a side glance."Meh!" Evans shrugged, he looked away from Derek so be wouldn't see the smile that crept on his face."Meh?" Derek stopped walking but Evans didn't, he kept on walking towards Derek's car. "What does 'Meh' mean?"~~~~~~~"Evans!" Simon called as he opened the door, wrapping his tiny hands around Evans as he hugged him.

    "I suspected, that face of his is so—so..." Derek faded, trying to find a word to describe Eric."Handsome?" Evans offered, Derek shook his head. Evans grandma has excused herself to go use the bathroom and Evans had decided to use the opportunity and tell Derek his findings."I wasn't going for that," Derek mumbled. "Did you get anything else?" He asked."No, they didn't really say much. He handed it over to Andrew and they both departed." Evans told him."Hey, do you know what I just realized?" Derek said with a smile on his face as he looked at Evans."What?""Well, you thought Andrew had magical hands, but turns out Andrew might just have murder hands. You also saw the doctor as a cutie, turns out he is also working for 'The Boss'. Who else do you think is handsome, he might just be our murderer." Evans shot him a look and smacked the back of his head.&nb

    "Ok, I think this is it," Derek said as he parked his car looking at the apartment beside it. Evans glanced at the one storey building, it was all brown and white, and looked like any normal house, Evans had to admit he was surprised, for a cocaine gang, he expected a house that speaks for a 'cocaine gang'.They got out of the car and walked towards the front door. Evans remembering something stopped walking, Derek noticing this, stopped also and turned around. "What's wrong?"He looked round the area they were in. "Did you bring a gun?" He said, his voice so low Derek couldn't even grab the words."I didn't catch that.""I said," Evans started, his voice a little higher this time. "Did you bring a gun? We're not entering there without a gun."Derek chuckled, "Yes Evans, I brought a gun." He said mimicking Evans tiny voice. Evans shot him a look and smacked his head, making Derek wince. They a

    Silence reign as Derek and his mother found themselves in a staring contest, you could feel the tension in the air. Evans glanced at Greta, question in his eyes, but all she did was shrug."What are you doing here?" Derek finally spoke, his voice one that Evans hadn't heard before, they sounded so cold and unfriendly that even his mother flinched a little from it."I—I came to see my son," She said the last two words slowly, like she was afraid from the reaction she would get from it."Well, your son doesn't want to see you, so I suggest you kindly leave, thank you." He proceeded to walk past her, but she reached out to grab him by the elbow quickly."Derek please, I'm sorry," She begged, the tears welling up in her eyes."I'm not in the mood for this mother," He said not looking at her, dragging his hand from her hold, he walked away leaving her.She stood there, the tears running down her fa
