I'm fine if I can fool myself tonight

Jacen closed his eyes, still awake, but out of it; unaware of what was going on.
Ariana stayed at the table, looking around to see if Jacen had just slipped passed her and was still in the club.

Mason turned so that Vic could reach Dante to drug him.

Peter carried him inside and to hia room.
zane but hia lip nervously.

vic quickly drugged Dante.

Jacen wrapped his arms around Peter's neck as he picked him up and leaned against him mostly out of habit from when Frankie or Artemis had carried him before. "Where are we going...?" He mumbled, his eyes still half closed.
Ariana frowned when she didn't see Jacen and went out to the parking lot to see if Peter was still around.

Mason held Dante to stop him falling as it took effect.

"To our room baby so you can rest." Peter said softly.

Dante leaned against Mason blinking slowly.

Jacen nodded, wrapping his arms a little tighter around Peter's neck.

Mason carefully sat him down and kneeled in front of him.

Peter carefully set him down.

Dante blinked again as he looked at Mason, having been given a stronger drug.

Jacen made a whining sound like a scared child would, not letting go of Peter when he realised he didn't recognise the place.

"Are you alright Chris?" Mason asked.

"Baby whats wrong?" Peter asked worriedly.

"Yeah... Boss.... W-What happened....?" Dante asked softly.

"Where...where are we?" Jacen asked nervously, starting to panic.

"We had to send another assassin in to rescue you." Mason said. "The people we're against had captured you and were messing with your mind..."

"Our room baby...." Peter said, smirking on the inside.

"M-Messing how?" Dante asked worriedly.

"But..." Jacen started, looking scared as he looked around the room. He let go of Peter and moved to sit leaning against the pillows, hugging his knees to his chest as he panicked.

"They were trying to make you think we were the ones you're against."

"Baby calm down." Peter said, getting a shot ready for Jacen.

Dante bit his lip. "Did i hurt anyone?"

"What's that for...?" Jacen asked nervously when he saw it.

Mason shook his head. "No, but our other assassin was hurt while saving you..."

"To help you calm down.... Remember the doctor said to use it?"

"Is he ok?" Dante asked.

Jacen went quiet for a minute as he thought about it. "N-No..." He said, though through the dizziness he remembered being told by a doctor that he was sick.

"He'll be fine, it was just his shoulder."

Peter carefully gave him the shot.

Dante nodded, "So what now?"

Jacen pulled a face as Peter gave him the shot before looking confused and making a nervous sound again before the drug started working.

"Just rest for now." Mason said.

"You feeling better baby?" Peter asked softly.

Dante nodded and laid down on his bed.

"A...a little..." Jacen mumbled, slowly moving closer to Peter, still looking a little confused.

Mason smiled and went back to his office, having left both rooms unlocked this time, now that both Dante and Jasper were drugged.

Peter kissed the top of his head.

Dante fell asleep.

Julian wake at a knock on the door.

Jacen gave a small smile and curled up, leaning against Peter.

After a couple of minutes, Seth let himself in, having knocked so he didn't scare them by just suddenly coming in.

Peter smiled, inside grinning.

"Hey dad..... Where is papa?"

Jacen slowly lifted his head, looking up at Peter.

"I couldn't bring him," Seth frowned. "Ted knows you're gone...he doesn't know I took time off work yet though, so me being out's normal."

Peter kissed his forehead.

Julian bit his lip, "Is papa ok?" He asked worriedly.

Jacen smiled, wrapping his arms bck around Peter's neck.

Seth nodded. "He's fine."
