PIERRE POVThe sound of cutlery colliding with the plates and the soft chatter of my mom and Gabe’s voice filled the small cozy dining room. It was mom who woke up and decided that it was a good day to eat in this room instead of the usual one, after all, there were about 3 more dining rooms or rooms resembling a dining room that were left unexplored. With me sitting across from the one person I so didn't have the strength to look at, I kept my gaze on my plate the entire time, chasing the broccoli around the plate with two peas that were remaining after I had gobbled my food down. I hated broccoli. I could feel a heated wave pivoting at me from across the table, but I had no courage to look up because I knew I would find the raging storm staring at me. “Your lip is pretty bad, big guy. Need some help with that?” Mom asked from my side, her voice directed at Poseidon. Still, the heated wave didn’t leave me, not even in that split second when his attention was needed elsewhere.“I
PIERRE POVThe moving was done hastily; more because I was running away from the raging storm that was inclined on destroying everything around me and inside.It was very cowardly of me to think that running away from Poseidon would ultimately solve the problem, but it was a temporary best possible solution I’d come up with in just a short time. In no time at all, he would complete his high school years and enroll in college, and the hope of him enrolling in lands far away was almost crippling.My mom -as dramatic as ever- made sure to bawl her eyes red as soon as she dropped me at my new place, causing shocked eyes and glances of disgust my way. And you think she minded? Not her.She held onto me as she cried about how much she’d miss me. I just had to ride the wave and just… let her have her moment. She was my mom, and I loved her. But she was just so overzealous.“Pierre?” I was snapped back from the dusty fractions of memories by the sound of the door opening, and Tony’s head
PIERRE POV“Hellooooo…” I didn’t realize I was still gawking at Sebastian, my mouth somewhere on the floor beneath my feet. His voice came like a wrecking ball, hammering through the thick mist of confusion, erupting a small smile from me.“Of course. Come on in.” Big Mistake.I stepped aside to leave room for him, causing him to come in with his hands in his pockets. I shut the door behind him just like Tony had instructed, then stood against the door and watched him dominating my small space.It was as if all the air had been sucked by him. The loud music crept through the door, his head moving with the beat as his eyes scanned the room.“Quite a nice place you got here.” He intoned, spinning on his heel so he could look at me.“Nothing like the one I used to live in.” What?“You lived in a frat house?” The surprise was evident in my tone because there was no way I could’ve imagined Sebastian to have lived in a frat house.“Shocking right?” He gave me a miniature smile,“Not anymor
PIERRE POV I don’t know what my expectations were aligned with in regard to future happenings that involved Sebastian, Poseidon, Pierre, and nice confinement in a closed room. But they sure as hell were nowhere near the possibility of Poseidon walking into my room, scorn marred on his face, and claiming his position on my bed all without reigning hell. I was left alone fighting with the door to keep the crazies from trying to get a glimpse of what was happening inside my room from the outside, thank heavens for Tony who came to my rescue and was able to shoo all of them out. He was a senior, and his word was final. He was the second most popular guy after the Z4, Lacrosse captain and all. You get the picture.I remained glued at my door once again, in just a span of hours, and right now: my mind thinking of possible means of escape.I’d go join the party and just drown within the throng, hopefully going unnoticed. But I didn’t even want to think what would happen if I stepped foot
POSEIDON POVResentment burned in my throat, leaving my mouth with an acidic taste that seemed to spread all over my being, leaving a bitter trail in its waking. The annoying continuous thumping of bass speakers and drunken squeals, lust-filled teen sex swirling in the air only amplified the burn by a hundred. As soon as Sebastian and I climbed down the stairs, millions of people came flocking around us, blocking the air and pulling all the oxygen away. My chest rose and fell with frantic breathing, the road to the outside of the house seemingly impossibly harder than crossing the Red Sea. Sebastian and I finally arrived outside, and before we could stand face to face, flashing lights and shutters of cameras were all I could hear. Look here, Poseidon, Here Sebastian.Patience started seeping through my fingers, and I knew I was going to injure someone.“I wouldn’t do that if I were you.” Sebastian rattled, his voice resembling a teeth-clenching noise of metal scraping against metal
POSEIDON POV“I want you too,” A dangerous haze permeated the air as soon as the words came tumbling down his tongue. Like a feather, his little sneaky hands found a way into my shirt, ghostly touches kissing my skin as though he was afraid to touch me fully. A deep groan escaped my throat, the intensity of it all gripping my mind in some kind of a vice. There were no words to describe what I was feeling, a mixture of something hot, too hot to even fathom. After living hot trails of goosebumps all over my front, his hands started their journey down the length of my body and settled on my clothed groin. The tension thickened, Beneath the little coy expression, he always put up a front, lay a vixen. Needy, hot as sin, and ready to take what he wanted.I couldn’t be more thankful.All the hatred and anger I came bearing when I stepped into this room disintegrated to dust. There was no way I could keep up with his tongue massaging mine in the way he did, his hands brushing all over my
PIERRE POVThe morning came too soon. Too sooner than I had actually anticipated. I was still drifting away on a fluffy cloud when the distance thumping began, and with every ticking second and steady rhythmic thump, I was slowly pulled back to the land of the living. A good moment passed before sleep fully was washed off the surface of my brain. The thump came downstairs, the music still pouring but not as harsh as it was last night. It was almost pleasant when compared to the savagery of the night before. Still groggy from hours of sleep, I extended my hand to the right, only to be met by cold linens that woke goosebumps all over me. I wasn’t surprised. I couldn’t be. But I did have a flicker of hope that maybe I would see the birth of a new day with him, maybe even sneak a quickie before driving to the estate. With a defeated sigh and a very sore body, I peeled my tired self out of the bed and sat on the bed, gathering my thoughts. My ass fuckin’ burns. I may need some cold wa
PIERRE POVThe so-called friendly match between the duo had to be the opposite of friendly.For the past few months, everything occurring between the two was a contest. I have no idea why they deemed it t themselves to take me as some sort of a trophy or a prize won at the end of the contest. And as much as it vexed me, I had no time to be angry because I was too busy trying to keep them from killing each other. I barely had time to bathe after breakfast, ‘cause I literally flew to the campus with the speed of light. I must have looked like a nutcase whooshing through the gates and heading to the courts, and true to Tony’s words, the entire court was packed. Everywhere I turned to look was a person, cheering. Of course, Poseidon had more fans than Sebastian for a lot of reasons.He was the leader of Z4. 2. He was pretty much more outgoing than Sebastian who preferred to be in the background almost every time. So yeah.I spotted the other guys seating in the front row, snacks surroun
