The Obdurate Avidity
Chapter 31
-TurtleBoy-
Gathering my thoughts and pressing them to the back of my mind as best that I could manage, I made my way down the stairs toward the kitchen where I could hear my mom already scurrying about; busying herself with tiny chores to pass the mornings quietness.
The atmosphere made me feel uneasy; the dream was so real, so vivid that I felt I couldn’t trust any difference in the conscious world. I watched as my mother gently flowed across the kitchen floor while she placed all the dishes from the previous day back to their appropriate places. She saw me enter the room and smiled the most comforting smile I had ever seen her direct towards me. I wish I could say I felt relieved, but everything still felt strange to me. I conjured a grin in her direction so that she didn’t feel something was wrong and sat down at the table to watch her go about the morning.
“Morning sunshine…. Didn’t sleep so well last night?” She asked softly while she reached into the pantry and pulled out a box of cereal.
“I guess, just a little restless. I’ll be fine.” I knew she could tell something was bothering me, it was a mother’s job to know these things, but she left it be, which was good; I didn’t feel like getting into that kind of conversation. God only knows what would happen to me if someone besides James knew what went on inside me head.
“So… What are you gonna get James for his Birthday?” She asked as she huddled a large cup of coffee in her hands and calmly sat down at the table with me. She paused and breathed in the fresh aroma of her coffee, taking a long slow sip and sighing with refreshment.
“Oh crap! What day is it today? Is it his birthday already?” Panic surged into my head, how could I forget such an important day?
“Wow, calm down hehe; it isn’t for another week. I just figured I’d get you thinking about it now, last minute shopping is always the worst.” Her giggle wasn’t of any relief, I had still forgotten about James birthday. What kind of person does that?
“Thank god,” I started, “My heads been all distracted lately, I was afraid I had forgotten about it.
“Don’t worry, it’s been a busy summer, besides it’s a mother’s job to remind their family about things like that. Nothing impressive, I have a day planner where I jot down all that stuff… its not like I would have remembered otherwise.” She turned her head towards the kitchen window allowing her expression to go blank and her eyes to seemingly glaze over. It reminded me of last night’s dream and caused a sudden chill to cross down my spine.
“You alright Ma?” I asked in concern.
“Oh, yea I’m fine. There’s just been so much going on lately that I can’t turn my head off… guess it’s affecting my sleep.”
“Guess we’re all feeling a little drained lately. Are we still going on that vacation? Sounds to me like we need it.”
“We sure are, it’s just we haven’t decided where yet. Edmonton seems a little busy, Mrs. McDowell suggested a cabin just outside of Banff up in the mountains. I dunno, I think that could be fun, but a bit of city life would be as well….” She trailed off in thought as I watched her eyes glaze over once again.
“Why don’t we do both? A few days at the cabin and a few days in Edmonton? I’m sure we could squeeze in both… Well, depending on how long Dad and Mr. McDowell can get off of work.” I poured myself a giant bowl of Count Chocula and greedily drowned it with milk, “When are they going to be finished that house?”
“Oh… I’m not sure, they’re doing a fantastic job so far. Your Dad says they are a few days ahead of schedule… Hmmm, I think we should consider your split vacation idea that sounds perfect.”
“Of course it does, it was my idea.” I replied with a smug chocolaty grin.
“I really don’t know how you can eat those things in the morning, they seem like more of an ice cream topping rather than a breakfast cereal.” She squinted her eyes attempting to show disgust, but didn’t pull it off quite well even though she tried to hide it a smile broke through her cheeks and destroyed all hope.
“Ice Cream! That’s a great idea!” I smiled deviously and jumped up from my seat.
“Adrian NO!” Mom yelled humorously, “It’s too early!”
Turning to her with a smile I slowly tip toed towards the freezer, “Awe… Come on, just this once?” I begged with no intention of actually obeying.
“No! You’ll get a stomach ache… Or you’ll give me a stomach ache watching you eat that garbage so early.” She said sternly.
“Thanks Mom.” I grinned, turning to the freezer door and swung it open. I quickly fished out the pail of ice cream, hearing the legs of my mom’s chair squeal against the floor as she jumped from her seat, “ADRIAN! PUT THAT BACK!” She screamed through laughter.
I whipped my head towards her to watch her approach, she was moving quickly. My heart skipped a beat with excitement as I whipped the pail backwards, still in my hand and ran towards the living room, “ADRIAN, GET BACK HER!”
“Huh?!” I giggled, “Get back HER? Speech much?” I teased and swung around the corner into the front hallway.
“Shut up you!” She giggled, grabbing the frame of the doorway with both hands and jolting her head back and forth while she decided which way to go.
“What are you two doing?” We heard coming from back in the kitchen.
I peered around the corner with a smile, “Morning Dad. Nothing, Mom’s just lost her marbles again.” I giggled mischievously.
“Actually…” She started, and snatched the ice cream from my grasp, “It’s chocolate.” She finished smugly and marched herself back towards the kitchen, “Morning Hun.” She smiled, leaning in and tippy-toeing to give Dad a morning kiss.
“Morning.” He smiled, “So uh… we having ice cream for breakfast?” His expression looked confused and delighted all at once.
Raising an eyebrow, Mom tapped the side of Dad’s head, “Absolutely not.” She passed him by and returned the ice cream to its rightful place in the freezer.
“Well… great, you’ve just destroyed my morning.” Giggled Dad, as he turned and poured himself some coffee.
With a bit of sarcastic disappointment, I sat back down at the table to finish off breakfast, “So, what’s everyone doing today?”
“Uh…” Started Dad, “I’m heading down the street to coordinate the build with Alexander… That’s James Dad. And ummm… What are you lot up to? Am I missing something?”
“Nope,” I replied, “Just a bit of morning conversation. I’ll probably just hang with James.”
“When did you want to go to town?” Mom asked me.
“Town? For what?” I replied with confusion.
“For James birthday present…”
“Oh yea, ummm…. Crap, I don’t know what to get him.”
“Well give it some thought and we’ll go on Friday.” She suggested while pouring herself another cup of coffee.
“Sounds good.” I then shoveled the last few scoops of breakfast into my mouth and excused myself from the table.
After a quick shower, I bounced down the stairs to give James a call and see if he was up for some company. I picked up the phone and began to dial his number, it was at that moment a sudden sharp pain surged up the back of my neck and ricocheted throughout my head causing me to drop the phone. I slapped my palms to my forehead while gasping in pain I fell to my knees; flashes of strange images crammed themselves one after another at a speed that wouldn’t allow me to register its messages. I could hear a high pitched buzzing noise followed by the smell of rotting flesh, which was the exact moment everything stopped without reason.
The door bell rang with an echo, with a deep breath I turned my head and climbed back to my feet. A shadowy figure could be seen through the curtains that covered the window next to the door, my head still feeling foggy and my heart still uneasy; I slowly walked towards the door and swung it open.
“Hi” Greeted a chipper familiar voice, I squinted my eyes into focus and waited for them to adjust to the morning light of the outdoors.
“Oh, Hi Kevin. Uh… what’s up?” I stared at him dumbly, kind of thrown off by his arrival and weirded out by my sudden seizure thingy.
“Nothing much, thought I’d come and see what you were up to.” He gave his head a strange soft tilt and blinked a few times in a row which caused his brown eyes to glisten with the light. His pale skin was partially sun burnt and his clothes looked wrinkled as if he had slept in them over night.
“Oh, uh… Alright, I was just gonna see what James was up to… Ummmm, you wanna come in?” I offered, trying not to be rude but wishing he’d just go away for a while; I really wanted to see James.
“Yea sure. I just saw James and his Mom head off in their car. Kinda sucks, I was gonna see if you guys wanted to come play down by the creek again today.” Kevin explained with a half grin as he stepped inside the front entrance and removed his shoes.
“Oh, weird.” I thought out loud, “He usually tells me if he’s going anywhere. Oh well, whatcha wanna do?”
“Dunno, uh… Got any games? I haven’t been able to play in ages, think I’m going through some kind of withdrawal.” He giggled while pushing back his hair with his fingers and stretching out his forehead.
“You look tired, what’s the matter? Can’t sleep out here?” I asked with only half concern, half not knowing what else to say.
“Yea, that Motel is really getting to me. It’s so cramped in there with all my brothers and sisters right next to me all the time. I can’t wait till they finish our new place.” Kevin explained, while leaning casually against the wall next to the stairs.
“I can only imagine… I got a few XBOX games upstairs… Uh, you want a drink or something?” I offered.
“Yea sure, got coke?” He replied, taking a step to towards the stairs and reaching out for the banister.
“I think so, hold up I’ll check.” I turned and ran into the kitchen, my head was still feeling strange, kind of dizzy but not… It’s hard to explain, you have the sensation of spinning but not enough to throw you off balance. It wouldn’t have bothered me so much, but it was lingering and becoming annoying. “Yea, we got Coke!” I yelled in Kevin’s direction, while grabbing an orange soda as well and returning towards the stairs.
Kevin seemed to have grown impatient and was already half way up the stairs when I had returned; I quickly followed in behind him, only partially paying attention. Just as I turned my head towards Kevin, who was nearing the top of the stairs, a sudden scent of something distractingly beautiful filled my lungs and caused my eyes to close while I tilted my face upwards. A warm and soft substance gently rubbed up against my cheek while I turned my nose against it and breathed its intoxicating smell deeply into my nostrils. Suddenly everything stopped and I heard Kevin’s voice raise with surprise while my cheekbone bounced forward into this object in front of me and through the back of my head into the wall. I opened my eyes with confusion written across my face to see Kevin turning his head with a strange smile on his face while I gathered my senses and forced them back to normality.
“What are you doing?” He giggled with a slightly reddened face.
“Uh… What?” I replied, staring back at him… and then at his back side which was pointed directly towards my face. It was at that exact moment when I realized what I had done…
“Did you just sniff my ass?” He chuckled.
“Umm, god I hope not….” I replied honestly, or at least I hope it was honestly.
“Haha…. Ummm, anyway…. Where’s your room? There seems to be a few doors up here.” He asked, apparently trying to move along from that hugely awkward moment.
“It’s the door at the end there, right next to the huge window.” I explained, trying to cool my reddened face.
“Wow Dude, you got an awesome place! I hope my house is as great as yours.” Kevin added, while trotting down the hall towards my bedroom.
What had I done? Seriously… What was I thinking? Well I obviously wasn’t thinking, but still, does my subconscious really want to destroy my relationship with James that badly? “Hey Dude… Hello?” Kevin waved his hand passed my eyes several times, “Where are yea man? You feeling alright?” He asked with a humorous concern.
“Oh, yea sorry. Guess I haven’t been sleeping that great lately either.” I replied, trying to focus my attentions on the here and now.
“It’s cool, I know the feeling. So uh… What game do you wanna play? I’m stuck between Bloody Roar and Roadkill.” Explained Kevin while holding the two games in either hand.
“Choice is all yours Kev.” I smiled and sat down on the bed to await his decision.
“Fat lot of help you are! Hmmm…. Bloody Roar I guess, you up for a game?” He dropped the other game back on the pile of games and opened the case to Bloody Roar.
“Uh, yea sure. Haven’t played it in a while, so I’ll probably suck at it.” I warned him while reaching for a controller.
“It’s cool, I don’t think I’ve ever played this one. So you should still have the advantage on me.”
He popped in the disc, grabbing down at the remaining controller and sat down next to me on the bed. I watched the screen as the XBOX start screen popped up and made its usual boot-up previews. The problem was, I could still feel my nostrils flaring at that new scent beside me. It was weird; you’d think I’d have noticed it before… It was amazing, it wasn’t James on any level and therefore couldn’t compete, but it was definitely distracting.
As I had suspected, I sucked. No matter which character I chose, Kevin always ended up winning. The sad part was, none of the matches even came close; I just couldn’t get my head in the game… Or at least that’s what I decided was the reason anyway. Of course I did find it hard to believe that Kevin had never played the game before, he learned and memorized all the moves within the first round of using a character. It just wasn’t fair, I used to be good at video games! Maybe my head just isn’t into them like they used to be.
“Another round?” Kevin grinned at me, right after he smashed my head into the ground with a sad grapple that he had fluked on me while I wasn’t paying attention…
“Yea sure, but you’re not aloud to be that bug anymore! I don’t seem to stand a chance.” I couldn’t help but giggle at myself, it was so pathetic.
“Deal, Guess I’ll just have to be the tiger guy…” He selected Shen Long the tiger and giggled when I picked Alice the rabbit.
“Shut up! This girl has potential, I can see it!” I giggled back.
“Yea right, the only potential she has is that you haven’t played her yet.” He teased, while scratching his knees simultaneously.
He was wearing track pants today, it was weird, he had previously struck me as more of a baggy jean kinda guy. The black track pants that he was wearing seemed thin and light, almost like how an old pair of sweat pants get after they’ve been washed too many times. Maybe it was an old detergent from the pants that he was wearing which was causing my senses to go all messed up on me… The game started and I appeared to be doing quite well, I had gotten the first couple of shots and had managed to get his health down by fifty percent, and my beast meter nearly filled! Of course it was a short lived victory; he recovered from my initial attack and slaughtered me as if I were already dead.
“Damn it!” I screamed with sarcasm and dropped the controller to the floor in pretend anger, “I just can’t win!”
“Awe, don’t be angry. Not everyone can rock as well as me.” He said in modesty…
“Don’t let it get to your head, in real life I’d win for sure!” I teased.
“Oh yea? I doubt that, I’ve definitely got more muscle than you.” Kevin flexed his pale skinny arms, trying to compare them to mine. Admittedly the muscles were a bit better toned than my own, but I was sure I had the advantage…
“It’s not the size of the muscle, it’s all in how you use it.” I teased and gave his shoulder a back handed slap.
“Ohhh, I see, now you need me to prove it huh!” Kevin then jumped onto his knees on top of the mattress, “Come on Adrian, bring it on!” He bounced himself from side to side, waving his fists in circles before me, just like you’d the three stooges would do.
“Wow… I have to admit… You’re a pretty scary guy.” I chuckled and eased away from his bouncing.
“What’s the matter, chicken? Afraid I’m gonna hurt yea huh.” He teased and nudged my shoulder with his forearm.
“Actually, I’m more afraid that I’m gonna have to make my bed again.” I giggled, looking down at the sheets below us bunching up in a mess.
“Haha. Believe me, that’s the least of your problems sir!” All of a sudden my head was covered in shadow as Kevin yelled with a roar, I looked back at him to see his scrawny body flailing in the air towards me. Everything told me to move, I could have done so, but I didn’t. I turned myself toward him and raised my hands the sides of his arms and held him back.
“You just about done?” I smiled up at him, watching as he swung and twisted his limbs to free himself from my grasp.
“Nope! Let me go! I’ll show you whose champ!” He screamed with certainty.
“Alright.” I said quickly, letting him go and rolling to the other side of the bed as he bounced off the mattress.
“Oooo, fast are yea!” He grinned at his failed impression of yoda.
“Dude you suck, give it up.” I tried to warn, but it was obviously travelling through deaf ears. Kevin plunged himself into my chest as if he were diving into the deep end of a pool… only side ways… I grabbed his arms and twisted myself overtop of his back and rolled onto the other side of him.
“Shit! You’re like a bloody chimp! Sit still so I can squash you!” He than kicked his right leg into the air and swung it around my hip trying to lock my body where I lay and keep me still, he then prodded his fingers into my ribs attempting to tickle me or something. I didn’t know what else to do, so I just maneuvered my fingers into his armpits and began to return the tickling. Of course I really hoped my tickling was a bit more tickle like than his pointy fingers that were scratching against my sides.
Fortunately I was successful, he began to twitch and spasm with laughter; apparently he was incredibly ticklish. His movements caused his hold on me to be released as his legs kicked and swung in the air his hands attempted to remove mine from his body. This just forced me to travel down his sides and along his back, which seemed to be even more ticklish than my initial target, rendering him useless to retort. His whole body jerked and shuffled while he bounced in laughter on the bed beside me. I could feel my heart racing as my movement continued to affect Kevin so dramatically, his giggling was oddly cute, nothing like the strange eerie boy I had once taken him to be. He could actually be normal after all, guess all my thinking destroys my trust in others sometimes; must be one of those occupational hazards or something.
His movements were causing that scent of his, to lift into my nostrils and settle into my lungs. While he tossed and jumped his white T-shirt also lifted revealing his lower back and tight stomach, this seemed to be a perfect opportunity to really drive him nuts! I grabbed the exposed skin of his sides and tickled him with extreme assault on his nerves; his body seemed to go into shock as his entire self jumped into the air and twisted his body onto his side. My left hand grabbed a hold of his outer mid thigh and a squeezed my fingers deep into the muscle repeatedly. Kevin’s body scampered in retreat and he slid downward toward the other end of the bed, my fingers however didn’t travel with him. Continuing my attack on him I savagely scurried my fingers into his body in whatever direction they cared to find, this turned out to be in the back of his upper thigh, right below the center of his backside. Without thought, I forced my fingers between his legs wrapping around from behind tickling his upper inner thigh. This seemed to take the bucket, Kevin dug his heels into the mattress and lifted himself with a quick thrust of his hips high into the air; a loud scream of laughter escaped him and bounced off of the walls of my room. My right hand pressed against his lower stomach and pushed him back down again, with the excitement of my new discovery, I drove both of my hands into either side of Kevin’s inner thighs right below the pelvis, this caused Kevin’s body to buckle and seize and his laughter was even causing me to laugh. I could feel his hands against my own as he attempted to remove my hold on him. His face was beat red and his eyes were wide and filled with exhausted tears.
He pulled on my hands as hard as he could, but it was obviously no use, he had no hope to gain control of the situation. I stared at him as he struggled, his scent only heightening the pleasure of the moment, his exposed stomach and heavy breathing only intensified my interest in pursuing and prolonging the torturous moment. The waist of his pants hugging at his sides hanging lower than they had moments ago, I could see the waistband of his Gap underwear and the start of the fabric below which was in a red and white horizontally striped pattern with a subtle lump only inches below which could be only one thing. His hands attempting to remove my own from their grip, he pulled upward, managing to slide my right hand up just a little. I fell short of breath as my fingers gently slid against the side of Kevin’s midsection; feeling my control loose itself I aloud him to move my hand some more, the feel of the fabric against the softness of what was below it began to take control of my thoughts. I had to try for more, it was intoxicating and erotic; it was wrong but exciting all at once.
While the distraction of his success in moving the first hand was still in his head, I began to bounce my left hand randomly over his body, tickling his lower stomach than his thigh, his hip than off to his side. His hand would bounce and snatch towards my hand, but with every attempt he only grabbed the air. He began to roll from side to side with every movement that I would influence; my left hand bouncing all over him, now against his hip and tickling at top speed, he rolled himself onto his back and forgetting about my other hand. Now I was free to do as I please the control of both hands was a great advantage! One hand would be against the side of his stomach as the other at his mid thigh. He’d grab for an arm and I’d move it elsewhere, one hand at his inner thigh, the other squeezing against his lower buttock, when he would turn, I would move; one hand at his armpit, the other hand just below prodding against his perineum. When I did this his eyes shot open and his leg muscles tightened, whipping his hands to where my hand was I reached my other hand and pressed it into his lower stomach and tickled in a circular motion just below the waistband of his underwear.
His pants were slowly sliding further down his hips, revealing more and more of his underpants to my eyes. It was at that moment I noticed he was no longer laughing, when I looked he was still smiling, only this smile seemed different; his face was red and his breathing was calm but partially labored. His hands were no longer attempting to force away my grip; instead he just held my wrists limply. I looked deep into his eyes and his returning gaze looked right through me. His loosened grip slowed my tickling, which was now closer to massaging; I could feel my heart beating hard against my chest and I could hear his beating at a similar pace. My thumb rested between his pelvis and his thigh, directly beside the center of his midsection. My throat grew dry and I tried to swallow, his fingers were lightly trailing themselves against the back of my hand sending shivers across my body. My grip on him loosened and my thumb moved inward and gently caressed against the side of his groin; back and forth I repeated this, while my other hand slowly gliding across his lower abdomen. The feel of the cotton fabric excited me; his right hand gently slid over top of my own and applied a gentle pressure.
The waist line of his track pants now barely sat over top of his midsection, the fingers of my right hand massaged carefully above; my left thumb pressing lightly into his scrotum, feeling the softness of what was below and the subtle roundness of his hanging testicle. With out thinking, I moved my fingers and gently covered him with the palm of my left hand and gently massaged into him. I couldn’t control the emotions that had taken over, they were too strong, and I wasn’t completely sure if I even wanted to take control.
I looked up at Kevin’s face, his lips partially parted and his face flush and relaxed. His eyes glistening down on me, as a noticeable firmness became slowly noticeable below my fingers. Carefully I slid my hands to his sides and gently slid his pants downward to reveal his red and white briefs. I lowered my face into him and breathed his scent in deeply; hugging my arms around his legs and sliding his pants even lower. He expressed no objection to my actions so I continued. Gliding my forehead against his lower belly, feeling the waistband of his gap briefs tickling my eyebrows, I again pressed my nose deep into his center and parted my lips against the fabric nibbling gently at his scrotum, pinching the skin softly with my lips slowly devouring more and more of his groin. Pulling my head back, I wrapped my right hand over his midsection and carefully massaged into him.
He was obviously just entering puberty, as his testicles were still quite small and his penis at half mass felt to be maybe a little over three inches long. This for some reason excited be even more and I pressed my thumb and finger around the shaft of the boys growing penis; feeling it slowly swell and harden caused me to lean my head downward, where I began to kiss along the leg of his briefs breathing in every chance that I could. Kevin’s right hand was travelling through my hair, while his left slid down his belly and underneath the waistband of his GAP briefs. I took this as a hint and slid my hands up his legs and over his pelvis until my fingers wrapped around the white waistband of his underwear. Softly pulling them downward to join his pants at his ankles, I paused as his groin became fully revealed and took him inside my mouth. A gasp escaped Kevin’s throat as a shiver quickly followed. My hands ran up from his hips to his shoulders and back down again; I could feel his body grow warmer by the second. Feeling his excitement grow, I slid my arms underneath him, taking hold of his smooth mounds of flesh and squeezed passionately. Allowing my thumbs to slip into the crevice of his backside and gently massaging his center I flipped him onto his stomach and fell on top of him.
A tingling sensation travelled across my body and a sudden sheen of sweat glazed my skin, hearing his gentle whimpering as my hands travelled against his body I felt his hands reaching at me, attempting to pull me closer to him. I obliged his request and leaned inward, pressing myself into him. His head turned to me and his lips met against my neck, as if it were needed, he sucked down hard on my skin travelling slowly up my jaw line.
Struggling to remove my clothes I fumbled off of him briefly and removed my pants, Kevin’s face turned to me with disappointment until he realized what I was doing. Only a moment later I rolled my self back over top of him, now flesh to flesh we shared each others warmth and need; wrapping my arms around him I maneuvered myself so that my begging erection was pressed firmly against his entrance. He moaned heavily through his lips which were still pressed against my neck, I could feel his teeth gently pushing against my skin. My head became dizzy and disorientated and the room began to blur and spin, a faint voice circled the room; a familiar voice.
“You Must.” It cried out, “You Must!”
My stomach felt queasy, but my heart still yearned for more. I circled my hips and thrust my groin forward, feeling myself enter the boy, quickly, almost savagely. Kevin cried out in pain and bit down on my shoulder, in a panic I drew back and attempted to stop what I was doing, but Kevin pulled me back down to him and continued to kiss my neck and shoulders. I shuddered uncontrollably and lowered myself back onto him, feeling the warmth consume my excitement, a smile struck over my face. The words still circling the room, “You must! ~ ~ You Must!! YOU MUST!” becoming louder and louder with every word. Pushing deep into Kevin I whipped my head down hard into his shoulder against the end of his neck, as if done on purpose, I felt my teeth shred into his skin and the taste of blood poured down my throat. Kevin screamed in pain, but continued kissing my neck. My throat craved more and my stomach begged of greed, Kevin in a whimpering moan pressed his teeth down hard into my shoulder and mimicked what I had done to him, the pain only added to the excitement, I could feel myself growing near an end. My heart was racing and my senses seemed to be bordering madness. My hand slid underneath Kevin’s hip and I took hold of his erection, feeling its inviting warmth in my fingers; with a sudden jolt followed by continuous spasm’s I shot every ounce of fluid I could have possibly been holding into him. As the feeling subsided and my shoulder began to sting, I felt myself collapse over top of him. The room had slowed and the voice had quieted to a mere whisper. All that could be heard were the heavy breaths of our recovery.
Kevin began to move around below me, he shifted himself and rolled me off of him. He smiled at me with red stained lips and wiped the side of my cheek. “Thanks.” He said, as he rolled over the side of the bed and sat up to gather his clothes.
“Thanks?” I said in confusion. It wasn’t quite what I had expected him to say, not that I was sure of what he would have said, but I don’t think that was it.
“Ummm, you were great?” He giggled, looking at me with a devious smirk.
“Heh… Okay, soo… that’s it? You’re leaving?” I asked, still confused and beginning to feel dirty and defeated.
“Yea… I gotta go check on my sibbies. I was supposed to bring them to the creek remember?” He explained, while standing upright so that he could pull up his briefs.
“Uh.. Okay, ummm… Are we still cool? Or ummm,” I seemed to be at a shortage of words…
“What? Of course we are.” He giggled at me as if I were being stupid, “So long as we can do that again sometime anyway.”
I stared up at him and his strange smile, “I uh, I don’t know if we should…” I started.
“Don’t worry, I wont tell James. He’ll never know, honest.” His words threw me off guard, I wasn’t sure how to respond to that.
“James? What do you mean?” I asked trying to sound like I was clueless.
“You’re not fooling anyone Adrian, its obvious you two are together. Don’t worry, he’ll never know. I wouldn’t do that to you.” He giggled and walked towards the door.
“We are?” I whispered through a dry throat.
“I said don’t…” Kevin paused, “Ouch…” He brought his hand to his side, “Don’t worr… AHHH!” Kevin grabbed both of his sides and dropped down to the floor.
“Holy shit! Kev, You alright?” I screamed, throwing myself towards him on the floor.
“OH GOD! IT’S.. It BURNS!!” Tears formed in his eyes as his veins began to bulge and swell across his entire body. Ripples and bumps shot across his skin with out mercy, “GOD!”
“Holy SHIT! Hold on, I’ll get my Mom, or… I’ll call a doctor!” I scampered to my feet and reached for the door handle.
“NO! Adrian WAIT! I… I think its stopping…. I’m gonna be fine… Just don’t leave me…” He lifted his head and looked into my eyes. My stomach swallowed my heart and almost threw it up, Kevin’s eyes weren’t his anymore, not like they were… They were red; blood red.

Chapter 31
-TurtleBoy-
Gathering my thoughts and pressing them to the back of my mind as best that I could manage, I made my way down the stairs toward the kitchen where I could hear my mom already scurrying about; busying herself with tiny chores to pass the mornings quietness.
The atmosphere made me feel uneasy; the dream was so real, so vivid that I felt I couldn’t trust any difference in the conscious world. I watched as my mother gently flowed across the kitchen floor while she placed all the dishes from the previous day back to their appropriate places. She saw me enter the room and smiled the most comforting smile I had ever seen her direct towards me. I wish I could say I felt relieved, but everything still felt strange to me. I conjured a grin in her direction so that she didn’t feel something was wrong and sat down at the table to watch her go about the morning.
“Morning sunshine…. Didn’t sleep so well last night?” She asked softly while she reached into the pantry and pulled out a box of cereal.
“I guess, just a little restless. I’ll be fine.” I knew she could tell something was bothering me, it was a mother’s job to know these things, but she left it be, which was good; I didn’t feel like getting into that kind of conversation. God only knows what would happen to me if someone besides James knew what went on inside me head.
“So… What are you gonna get James for his Birthday?” She asked as she huddled a large cup of coffee in her hands and calmly sat down at the table with me. She paused and breathed in the fresh aroma of her coffee, taking a long slow sip and sighing with refreshment.
“Oh crap! What day is it today? Is it his birthday already?” Panic surged into my head, how could I forget such an important day?
“Wow, calm down hehe; it isn’t for another week. I just figured I’d get you thinking about it now, last minute shopping is always the worst.” Her giggle wasn’t of any relief, I had still forgotten about James birthday. What kind of person does that?
“Thank god,” I started, “My heads been all distracted lately, I was afraid I had forgotten about it.
“Don’t worry, it’s been a busy summer, besides it’s a mother’s job to remind their family about things like that. Nothing impressive, I have a day planner where I jot down all that stuff… its not like I would have remembered otherwise.” She turned her head towards the kitchen window allowing her expression to go blank and her eyes to seemingly glaze over. It reminded me of last night’s dream and caused a sudden chill to cross down my spine.
“You alright Ma?” I asked in concern.
“Oh, yea I’m fine. There’s just been so much going on lately that I can’t turn my head off… guess it’s affecting my sleep.”
“Guess we’re all feeling a little drained lately. Are we still going on that vacation? Sounds to me like we need it.”
“We sure are, it’s just we haven’t decided where yet. Edmonton seems a little busy, Mrs. McDowell suggested a cabin just outside of Banff up in the mountains. I dunno, I think that could be fun, but a bit of city life would be as well….” She trailed off in thought as I watched her eyes glaze over once again.
“Why don’t we do both? A few days at the cabin and a few days in Edmonton? I’m sure we could squeeze in both… Well, depending on how long Dad and Mr. McDowell can get off of work.” I poured myself a giant bowl of Count Chocula and greedily drowned it with milk, “When are they going to be finished that house?”
“Oh… I’m not sure, they’re doing a fantastic job so far. Your Dad says they are a few days ahead of schedule… Hmmm, I think we should consider your split vacation idea that sounds perfect.”
“Of course it does, it was my idea.” I replied with a smug chocolaty grin.
“I really don’t know how you can eat those things in the morning, they seem like more of an ice cream topping rather than a breakfast cereal.” She squinted her eyes attempting to show disgust, but didn’t pull it off quite well even though she tried to hide it a smile broke through her cheeks and destroyed all hope.
“Ice Cream! That’s a great idea!” I smiled deviously and jumped up from my seat.
“Adrian NO!” Mom yelled humorously, “It’s too early!”
Turning to her with a smile I slowly tip toed towards the freezer, “Awe… Come on, just this once?” I begged with no intention of actually obeying.
“No! You’ll get a stomach ache… Or you’ll give me a stomach ache watching you eat that garbage so early.” She said sternly.
“Thanks Mom.” I grinned, turning to the freezer door and swung it open. I quickly fished out the pail of ice cream, hearing the legs of my mom’s chair squeal against the floor as she jumped from her seat, “ADRIAN! PUT THAT BACK!” She screamed through laughter.
I whipped my head towards her to watch her approach, she was moving quickly. My heart skipped a beat with excitement as I whipped the pail backwards, still in my hand and ran towards the living room, “ADRIAN, GET BACK HER!”
“Huh?!” I giggled, “Get back HER? Speech much?” I teased and swung around the corner into the front hallway.
“Shut up you!” She giggled, grabbing the frame of the doorway with both hands and jolting her head back and forth while she decided which way to go.
“What are you two doing?” We heard coming from back in the kitchen.
I peered around the corner with a smile, “Morning Dad. Nothing, Mom’s just lost her marbles again.” I giggled mischievously.
“Actually…” She started, and snatched the ice cream from my grasp, “It’s chocolate.” She finished smugly and marched herself back towards the kitchen, “Morning Hun.” She smiled, leaning in and tippy-toeing to give Dad a morning kiss.
“Morning.” He smiled, “So uh… we having ice cream for breakfast?” His expression looked confused and delighted all at once.
Raising an eyebrow, Mom tapped the side of Dad’s head, “Absolutely not.” She passed him by and returned the ice cream to its rightful place in the freezer.
“Well… great, you’ve just destroyed my morning.” Giggled Dad, as he turned and poured himself some coffee.
With a bit of sarcastic disappointment, I sat back down at the table to finish off breakfast, “So, what’s everyone doing today?”
“Uh…” Started Dad, “I’m heading down the street to coordinate the build with Alexander… That’s James Dad. And ummm… What are you lot up to? Am I missing something?”
“Nope,” I replied, “Just a bit of morning conversation. I’ll probably just hang with James.”
“When did you want to go to town?” Mom asked me.
“Town? For what?” I replied with confusion.
“For James birthday present…”
“Oh yea, ummm…. Crap, I don’t know what to get him.”
“Well give it some thought and we’ll go on Friday.” She suggested while pouring herself another cup of coffee.
“Sounds good.” I then shoveled the last few scoops of breakfast into my mouth and excused myself from the table.
After a quick shower, I bounced down the stairs to give James a call and see if he was up for some company. I picked up the phone and began to dial his number, it was at that moment a sudden sharp pain surged up the back of my neck and ricocheted throughout my head causing me to drop the phone. I slapped my palms to my forehead while gasping in pain I fell to my knees; flashes of strange images crammed themselves one after another at a speed that wouldn’t allow me to register its messages. I could hear a high pitched buzzing noise followed by the smell of rotting flesh, which was the exact moment everything stopped without reason.
The door bell rang with an echo, with a deep breath I turned my head and climbed back to my feet. A shadowy figure could be seen through the curtains that covered the window next to the door, my head still feeling foggy and my heart still uneasy; I slowly walked towards the door and swung it open.
“Hi” Greeted a chipper familiar voice, I squinted my eyes into focus and waited for them to adjust to the morning light of the outdoors.
“Oh, Hi Kevin. Uh… what’s up?” I stared at him dumbly, kind of thrown off by his arrival and weirded out by my sudden seizure thingy.
“Nothing much, thought I’d come and see what you were up to.” He gave his head a strange soft tilt and blinked a few times in a row which caused his brown eyes to glisten with the light. His pale skin was partially sun burnt and his clothes looked wrinkled as if he had slept in them over night.
“Oh, uh… Alright, I was just gonna see what James was up to… Ummmm, you wanna come in?” I offered, trying not to be rude but wishing he’d just go away for a while; I really wanted to see James.
“Yea sure. I just saw James and his Mom head off in their car. Kinda sucks, I was gonna see if you guys wanted to come play down by the creek again today.” Kevin explained with a half grin as he stepped inside the front entrance and removed his shoes.
“Oh, weird.” I thought out loud, “He usually tells me if he’s going anywhere. Oh well, whatcha wanna do?”
“Dunno, uh… Got any games? I haven’t been able to play in ages, think I’m going through some kind of withdrawal.” He giggled while pushing back his hair with his fingers and stretching out his forehead.
“You look tired, what’s the matter? Can’t sleep out here?” I asked with only half concern, half not knowing what else to say.
“Yea, that Motel is really getting to me. It’s so cramped in there with all my brothers and sisters right next to me all the time. I can’t wait till they finish our new place.” Kevin explained, while leaning casually against the wall next to the stairs.
“I can only imagine… I got a few XBOX games upstairs… Uh, you want a drink or something?” I offered.
“Yea sure, got coke?” He replied, taking a step to towards the stairs and reaching out for the banister.
“I think so, hold up I’ll check.” I turned and ran into the kitchen, my head was still feeling strange, kind of dizzy but not… It’s hard to explain, you have the sensation of spinning but not enough to throw you off balance. It wouldn’t have bothered me so much, but it was lingering and becoming annoying. “Yea, we got Coke!” I yelled in Kevin’s direction, while grabbing an orange soda as well and returning towards the stairs.
Kevin seemed to have grown impatient and was already half way up the stairs when I had returned; I quickly followed in behind him, only partially paying attention. Just as I turned my head towards Kevin, who was nearing the top of the stairs, a sudden scent of something distractingly beautiful filled my lungs and caused my eyes to close while I tilted my face upwards. A warm and soft substance gently rubbed up against my cheek while I turned my nose against it and breathed its intoxicating smell deeply into my nostrils. Suddenly everything stopped and I heard Kevin’s voice raise with surprise while my cheekbone bounced forward into this object in front of me and through the back of my head into the wall. I opened my eyes with confusion written across my face to see Kevin turning his head with a strange smile on his face while I gathered my senses and forced them back to normality.
“What are you doing?” He giggled with a slightly reddened face.
“Uh… What?” I replied, staring back at him… and then at his back side which was pointed directly towards my face. It was at that exact moment when I realized what I had done…
“Did you just sniff my ass?” He chuckled.
“Umm, god I hope not….” I replied honestly, or at least I hope it was honestly.
“Haha…. Ummm, anyway…. Where’s your room? There seems to be a few doors up here.” He asked, apparently trying to move along from that hugely awkward moment.
“It’s the door at the end there, right next to the huge window.” I explained, trying to cool my reddened face.
“Wow Dude, you got an awesome place! I hope my house is as great as yours.” Kevin added, while trotting down the hall towards my bedroom.
What had I done? Seriously… What was I thinking? Well I obviously wasn’t thinking, but still, does my subconscious really want to destroy my relationship with James that badly? “Hey Dude… Hello?” Kevin waved his hand passed my eyes several times, “Where are yea man? You feeling alright?” He asked with a humorous concern.
“Oh, yea sorry. Guess I haven’t been sleeping that great lately either.” I replied, trying to focus my attentions on the here and now.
“It’s cool, I know the feeling. So uh… What game do you wanna play? I’m stuck between Bloody Roar and Roadkill.” Explained Kevin while holding the two games in either hand.
“Choice is all yours Kev.” I smiled and sat down on the bed to await his decision.
“Fat lot of help you are! Hmmm…. Bloody Roar I guess, you up for a game?” He dropped the other game back on the pile of games and opened the case to Bloody Roar.
“Uh, yea sure. Haven’t played it in a while, so I’ll probably suck at it.” I warned him while reaching for a controller.
“It’s cool, I don’t think I’ve ever played this one. So you should still have the advantage on me.”
He popped in the disc, grabbing down at the remaining controller and sat down next to me on the bed. I watched the screen as the XBOX start screen popped up and made its usual boot-up previews. The problem was, I could still feel my nostrils flaring at that new scent beside me. It was weird; you’d think I’d have noticed it before… It was amazing, it wasn’t James on any level and therefore couldn’t compete, but it was definitely distracting.
As I had suspected, I sucked. No matter which character I chose, Kevin always ended up winning. The sad part was, none of the matches even came close; I just couldn’t get my head in the game… Or at least that’s what I decided was the reason anyway. Of course I did find it hard to believe that Kevin had never played the game before, he learned and memorized all the moves within the first round of using a character. It just wasn’t fair, I used to be good at video games! Maybe my head just isn’t into them like they used to be.
“Another round?” Kevin grinned at me, right after he smashed my head into the ground with a sad grapple that he had fluked on me while I wasn’t paying attention…
“Yea sure, but you’re not aloud to be that bug anymore! I don’t seem to stand a chance.” I couldn’t help but giggle at myself, it was so pathetic.
“Deal, Guess I’ll just have to be the tiger guy…” He selected Shen Long the tiger and giggled when I picked Alice the rabbit.
“Shut up! This girl has potential, I can see it!” I giggled back.
“Yea right, the only potential she has is that you haven’t played her yet.” He teased, while scratching his knees simultaneously.
He was wearing track pants today, it was weird, he had previously struck me as more of a baggy jean kinda guy. The black track pants that he was wearing seemed thin and light, almost like how an old pair of sweat pants get after they’ve been washed too many times. Maybe it was an old detergent from the pants that he was wearing which was causing my senses to go all messed up on me… The game started and I appeared to be doing quite well, I had gotten the first couple of shots and had managed to get his health down by fifty percent, and my beast meter nearly filled! Of course it was a short lived victory; he recovered from my initial attack and slaughtered me as if I were already dead.
“Damn it!” I screamed with sarcasm and dropped the controller to the floor in pretend anger, “I just can’t win!”
“Awe, don’t be angry. Not everyone can rock as well as me.” He said in modesty…
“Don’t let it get to your head, in real life I’d win for sure!” I teased.
“Oh yea? I doubt that, I’ve definitely got more muscle than you.” Kevin flexed his pale skinny arms, trying to compare them to mine. Admittedly the muscles were a bit better toned than my own, but I was sure I had the advantage…
“It’s not the size of the muscle, it’s all in how you use it.” I teased and gave his shoulder a back handed slap.
“Ohhh, I see, now you need me to prove it huh!” Kevin then jumped onto his knees on top of the mattress, “Come on Adrian, bring it on!” He bounced himself from side to side, waving his fists in circles before me, just like you’d the three stooges would do.
“Wow… I have to admit… You’re a pretty scary guy.” I chuckled and eased away from his bouncing.
“What’s the matter, chicken? Afraid I’m gonna hurt yea huh.” He teased and nudged my shoulder with his forearm.
“Actually, I’m more afraid that I’m gonna have to make my bed again.” I giggled, looking down at the sheets below us bunching up in a mess.
“Haha. Believe me, that’s the least of your problems sir!” All of a sudden my head was covered in shadow as Kevin yelled with a roar, I looked back at him to see his scrawny body flailing in the air towards me. Everything told me to move, I could have done so, but I didn’t. I turned myself toward him and raised my hands the sides of his arms and held him back.
“You just about done?” I smiled up at him, watching as he swung and twisted his limbs to free himself from my grasp.
“Nope! Let me go! I’ll show you whose champ!” He screamed with certainty.
“Alright.” I said quickly, letting him go and rolling to the other side of the bed as he bounced off the mattress.
“Oooo, fast are yea!” He grinned at his failed impression of yoda.
“Dude you suck, give it up.” I tried to warn, but it was obviously travelling through deaf ears. Kevin plunged himself into my chest as if he were diving into the deep end of a pool… only side ways… I grabbed his arms and twisted myself overtop of his back and rolled onto the other side of him.
“Shit! You’re like a bloody chimp! Sit still so I can squash you!” He than kicked his right leg into the air and swung it around my hip trying to lock my body where I lay and keep me still, he then prodded his fingers into my ribs attempting to tickle me or something. I didn’t know what else to do, so I just maneuvered my fingers into his armpits and began to return the tickling. Of course I really hoped my tickling was a bit more tickle like than his pointy fingers that were scratching against my sides.
Fortunately I was successful, he began to twitch and spasm with laughter; apparently he was incredibly ticklish. His movements caused his hold on me to be released as his legs kicked and swung in the air his hands attempted to remove mine from his body. This just forced me to travel down his sides and along his back, which seemed to be even more ticklish than my initial target, rendering him useless to retort. His whole body jerked and shuffled while he bounced in laughter on the bed beside me. I could feel my heart racing as my movement continued to affect Kevin so dramatically, his giggling was oddly cute, nothing like the strange eerie boy I had once taken him to be. He could actually be normal after all, guess all my thinking destroys my trust in others sometimes; must be one of those occupational hazards or something.
His movements were causing that scent of his, to lift into my nostrils and settle into my lungs. While he tossed and jumped his white T-shirt also lifted revealing his lower back and tight stomach, this seemed to be a perfect opportunity to really drive him nuts! I grabbed the exposed skin of his sides and tickled him with extreme assault on his nerves; his body seemed to go into shock as his entire self jumped into the air and twisted his body onto his side. My left hand grabbed a hold of his outer mid thigh and a squeezed my fingers deep into the muscle repeatedly. Kevin’s body scampered in retreat and he slid downward toward the other end of the bed, my fingers however didn’t travel with him. Continuing my attack on him I savagely scurried my fingers into his body in whatever direction they cared to find, this turned out to be in the back of his upper thigh, right below the center of his backside. Without thought, I forced my fingers between his legs wrapping around from behind tickling his upper inner thigh. This seemed to take the bucket, Kevin dug his heels into the mattress and lifted himself with a quick thrust of his hips high into the air; a loud scream of laughter escaped him and bounced off of the walls of my room. My right hand pressed against his lower stomach and pushed him back down again, with the excitement of my new discovery, I drove both of my hands into either side of Kevin’s inner thighs right below the pelvis, this caused Kevin’s body to buckle and seize and his laughter was even causing me to laugh. I could feel his hands against my own as he attempted to remove my hold on him. His face was beat red and his eyes were wide and filled with exhausted tears.
He pulled on my hands as hard as he could, but it was obviously no use, he had no hope to gain control of the situation. I stared at him as he struggled, his scent only heightening the pleasure of the moment, his exposed stomach and heavy breathing only intensified my interest in pursuing and prolonging the torturous moment. The waist of his pants hugging at his sides hanging lower than they had moments ago, I could see the waistband of his Gap underwear and the start of the fabric below which was in a red and white horizontally striped pattern with a subtle lump only inches below which could be only one thing. His hands attempting to remove my own from their grip, he pulled upward, managing to slide my right hand up just a little. I fell short of breath as my fingers gently slid against the side of Kevin’s midsection; feeling my control loose itself I aloud him to move my hand some more, the feel of the fabric against the softness of what was below it began to take control of my thoughts. I had to try for more, it was intoxicating and erotic; it was wrong but exciting all at once.
While the distraction of his success in moving the first hand was still in his head, I began to bounce my left hand randomly over his body, tickling his lower stomach than his thigh, his hip than off to his side. His hand would bounce and snatch towards my hand, but with every attempt he only grabbed the air. He began to roll from side to side with every movement that I would influence; my left hand bouncing all over him, now against his hip and tickling at top speed, he rolled himself onto his back and forgetting about my other hand. Now I was free to do as I please the control of both hands was a great advantage! One hand would be against the side of his stomach as the other at his mid thigh. He’d grab for an arm and I’d move it elsewhere, one hand at his inner thigh, the other squeezing against his lower buttock, when he would turn, I would move; one hand at his armpit, the other hand just below prodding against his perineum. When I did this his eyes shot open and his leg muscles tightened, whipping his hands to where my hand was I reached my other hand and pressed it into his lower stomach and tickled in a circular motion just below the waistband of his underwear.
His pants were slowly sliding further down his hips, revealing more and more of his underpants to my eyes. It was at that moment I noticed he was no longer laughing, when I looked he was still smiling, only this smile seemed different; his face was red and his breathing was calm but partially labored. His hands were no longer attempting to force away my grip; instead he just held my wrists limply. I looked deep into his eyes and his returning gaze looked right through me. His loosened grip slowed my tickling, which was now closer to massaging; I could feel my heart beating hard against my chest and I could hear his beating at a similar pace. My thumb rested between his pelvis and his thigh, directly beside the center of his midsection. My throat grew dry and I tried to swallow, his fingers were lightly trailing themselves against the back of my hand sending shivers across my body. My grip on him loosened and my thumb moved inward and gently caressed against the side of his groin; back and forth I repeated this, while my other hand slowly gliding across his lower abdomen. The feel of the cotton fabric excited me; his right hand gently slid over top of my own and applied a gentle pressure.
The waist line of his track pants now barely sat over top of his midsection, the fingers of my right hand massaged carefully above; my left thumb pressing lightly into his scrotum, feeling the softness of what was below and the subtle roundness of his hanging testicle. With out thinking, I moved my fingers and gently covered him with the palm of my left hand and gently massaged into him. I couldn’t control the emotions that had taken over, they were too strong, and I wasn’t completely sure if I even wanted to take control.
I looked up at Kevin’s face, his lips partially parted and his face flush and relaxed. His eyes glistening down on me, as a noticeable firmness became slowly noticeable below my fingers. Carefully I slid my hands to his sides and gently slid his pants downward to reveal his red and white briefs. I lowered my face into him and breathed his scent in deeply; hugging my arms around his legs and sliding his pants even lower. He expressed no objection to my actions so I continued. Gliding my forehead against his lower belly, feeling the waistband of his gap briefs tickling my eyebrows, I again pressed my nose deep into his center and parted my lips against the fabric nibbling gently at his scrotum, pinching the skin softly with my lips slowly devouring more and more of his groin. Pulling my head back, I wrapped my right hand over his midsection and carefully massaged into him.
He was obviously just entering puberty, as his testicles were still quite small and his penis at half mass felt to be maybe a little over three inches long. This for some reason excited be even more and I pressed my thumb and finger around the shaft of the boys growing penis; feeling it slowly swell and harden caused me to lean my head downward, where I began to kiss along the leg of his briefs breathing in every chance that I could. Kevin’s right hand was travelling through my hair, while his left slid down his belly and underneath the waistband of his GAP briefs. I took this as a hint and slid my hands up his legs and over his pelvis until my fingers wrapped around the white waistband of his underwear. Softly pulling them downward to join his pants at his ankles, I paused as his groin became fully revealed and took him inside my mouth. A gasp escaped Kevin’s throat as a shiver quickly followed. My hands ran up from his hips to his shoulders and back down again; I could feel his body grow warmer by the second. Feeling his excitement grow, I slid my arms underneath him, taking hold of his smooth mounds of flesh and squeezed passionately. Allowing my thumbs to slip into the crevice of his backside and gently massaging his center I flipped him onto his stomach and fell on top of him.
A tingling sensation travelled across my body and a sudden sheen of sweat glazed my skin, hearing his gentle whimpering as my hands travelled against his body I felt his hands reaching at me, attempting to pull me closer to him. I obliged his request and leaned inward, pressing myself into him. His head turned to me and his lips met against my neck, as if it were needed, he sucked down hard on my skin travelling slowly up my jaw line.
Struggling to remove my clothes I fumbled off of him briefly and removed my pants, Kevin’s face turned to me with disappointment until he realized what I was doing. Only a moment later I rolled my self back over top of him, now flesh to flesh we shared each others warmth and need; wrapping my arms around him I maneuvered myself so that my begging erection was pressed firmly against his entrance. He moaned heavily through his lips which were still pressed against my neck, I could feel his teeth gently pushing against my skin. My head became dizzy and disorientated and the room began to blur and spin, a faint voice circled the room; a familiar voice.
“You Must.” It cried out, “You Must!”
My stomach felt queasy, but my heart still yearned for more. I circled my hips and thrust my groin forward, feeling myself enter the boy, quickly, almost savagely. Kevin cried out in pain and bit down on my shoulder, in a panic I drew back and attempted to stop what I was doing, but Kevin pulled me back down to him and continued to kiss my neck and shoulders. I shuddered uncontrollably and lowered myself back onto him, feeling the warmth consume my excitement, a smile struck over my face. The words still circling the room, “You must! ~ ~ You Must!! YOU MUST!” becoming louder and louder with every word. Pushing deep into Kevin I whipped my head down hard into his shoulder against the end of his neck, as if done on purpose, I felt my teeth shred into his skin and the taste of blood poured down my throat. Kevin screamed in pain, but continued kissing my neck. My throat craved more and my stomach begged of greed, Kevin in a whimpering moan pressed his teeth down hard into my shoulder and mimicked what I had done to him, the pain only added to the excitement, I could feel myself growing near an end. My heart was racing and my senses seemed to be bordering madness. My hand slid underneath Kevin’s hip and I took hold of his erection, feeling its inviting warmth in my fingers; with a sudden jolt followed by continuous spasm’s I shot every ounce of fluid I could have possibly been holding into him. As the feeling subsided and my shoulder began to sting, I felt myself collapse over top of him. The room had slowed and the voice had quieted to a mere whisper. All that could be heard were the heavy breaths of our recovery.
Kevin began to move around below me, he shifted himself and rolled me off of him. He smiled at me with red stained lips and wiped the side of my cheek. “Thanks.” He said, as he rolled over the side of the bed and sat up to gather his clothes.
“Thanks?” I said in confusion. It wasn’t quite what I had expected him to say, not that I was sure of what he would have said, but I don’t think that was it.
“Ummm, you were great?” He giggled, looking at me with a devious smirk.
“Heh… Okay, soo… that’s it? You’re leaving?” I asked, still confused and beginning to feel dirty and defeated.
“Yea… I gotta go check on my sibbies. I was supposed to bring them to the creek remember?” He explained, while standing upright so that he could pull up his briefs.
“Uh.. Okay, ummm… Are we still cool? Or ummm,” I seemed to be at a shortage of words…
“What? Of course we are.” He giggled at me as if I were being stupid, “So long as we can do that again sometime anyway.”
I stared up at him and his strange smile, “I uh, I don’t know if we should…” I started.
“Don’t worry, I wont tell James. He’ll never know, honest.” His words threw me off guard, I wasn’t sure how to respond to that.
“James? What do you mean?” I asked trying to sound like I was clueless.
“You’re not fooling anyone Adrian, its obvious you two are together. Don’t worry, he’ll never know. I wouldn’t do that to you.” He giggled and walked towards the door.
“We are?” I whispered through a dry throat.
“I said don’t…” Kevin paused, “Ouch…” He brought his hand to his side, “Don’t worr… AHHH!” Kevin grabbed both of his sides and dropped down to the floor.
“Holy shit! Kev, You alright?” I screamed, throwing myself towards him on the floor.
“OH GOD! IT’S.. It BURNS!!” Tears formed in his eyes as his veins began to bulge and swell across his entire body. Ripples and bumps shot across his skin with out mercy, “GOD!”
“Holy SHIT! Hold on, I’ll get my Mom, or… I’ll call a doctor!” I scampered to my feet and reached for the door handle.
“NO! Adrian WAIT! I… I think its stopping…. I’m gonna be fine… Just don’t leave me…” He lifted his head and looked into my eyes. My stomach swallowed my heart and almost threw it up, Kevin’s eyes weren’t his anymore, not like they were… They were red; blood red.
