QT: I Bent The Male Lead

Jason wondered around the city. Nothing much had changed since he had entered the novel, the only thing that was different was his lack of interest in his world. 

Everything seemed dull to him. He had seen real magic, normal was so boring. Everywhere he turned, he saw the crown prince smiling at him. He would hear his melodic voice speaking to him. 

Mostly flirting, but he wasn't accepting what he could get. He had a sad song playing in his headphones. Walking the streets alone with no one beside him made him lonely. 

His eyes searched the crowd to try and find his crown prince. The author had to have used someone real to create the image of the crown prince of Aphidia. The only person he could think of that would meet the description of the male a little bit, would be the waiter. 

He resembled Davion in a lot of ways. He had long hair like the crown prince, he was chill and relaxed the way the prince was before his heart was broken. He knew just what to say, the crown prince never lacked a reply for anything. 

That is why he left the cafe, the man was not helping him feel better. He made him miss his lover. He took a deep breath. His heart was racing, without a direction, it was in chaos. 

Everything he felt were all connected to the book. He couldn't even think about his family to contact them and let them know that he was fine. Find his friends and catch up on what he missed. But he wasn't in the mood for anyone.

The only person that he was interested in seeing is the author of the book. Alperx, the user name of the author was the only thing he had to go on. 

He took out his phone and went to the author's social media page, the last he checked, the author had not updated it in two weeks. But when he scrolled to the top he was surprised to see that their was a post. 

<<Love is the strangest thing ever. Those who find it have a hard time keeping it and those who don't have it, keep searching for it. It is an endless circle>>

He read the post. The author had put up the post for only ten minutes and already it was up to a thousand likes. And the comment section was bursting with fans excitement. 

Hearing from their favorite author after two weeks was like a breath of fresh air to them. Jason couldn't help but read the post over and over again. Funny how he felt like the comment was for him. 

He had found love but couldn't keep it but now that he had lost it, he was looking everywhere for it. Searching every crowd for a sign of the one he loved. Even though he knew well that the person he loved would never be in that crowd. 

The crown prince was all that he could think about. His love for the character could only grow and that made him miss Davion even more. 

It was funny how much the author understood him. It was almost as if the two of them were soulmates. The way every word the stranger wrote touched his heart made him want to believe in the existence of soulmates. 

If he were not in love with someone else, he would actually think that the author was made just for him. His stories suited him perfectly and now even his thoughts were aligned with everything that Jason was going through. 

He locked his phone and returned it to his pocket. He couldn't continue to look at the page, it made him think of the novel and that brought back memories of the prince that made his eyes teary. 

He doubted that the author ever such moments. She could write and know what is going to happen next so she is never surprised. She isn't left broken when she goes on break and stops to update the book.

Only the readers feel the pinch when this happens. The author creates a beautiful world and gets the readers absorbed in it that they look forward to what will happen next only for her to take a break. 

He walked down the block to his apartment. Reaching the door, he found all his stuff outside the door and the door was locked with a note on the door. 

'Since you've refused to pay rent for six whole months, find a new place to stay.'

Jason couldn't believe his luck. He had just gone through a very heartbreaking experience and was barely holding on and now he had become homeless. He folded the note in his hand and dropped to the ground. 

The universe was out to get him. He was helpless to defend himself, he spend most of his earning on the book and encouraging the author that he always skipped out on his bills. 

Of all the times to be kicked out. He had no where to go and lacked the energy to look for one. He couldn't think of anyone that would take him in. 

What he desperately needed at that moment was a drink. A strong drink to help him drown in his misery but he doubted that he had the money to get that. 

He laid his head on the ground and closed his eyes. He imagined that he was holding a glass of alcohol in his hand, he made a toast to the crown prince and gulped the whole thing in one go. 

Tears trickled down his closed eyes. He was really missing his better half, if only for a moment. He wouldn't mind glancing at the man one more time. To tell him all the words that he left unsaid. 

To tell him that he didn't mind if he was angry as long he didn't disappear. Ask Davion to stay by him and never leave him. "I miss you," he whispered. 

He rested his mind.
