Chapter 4: Side Story #1

It was another ordinary night in Percy's 600+ years of life. Percy was lying on the couch in his basement room when he heard a sound resonating throughout the mansion. It was an odd sound that Percy had never heard before, it sounded like something was ringing, or chiming. He made his way up the stairs towards the sound, and realized that it was actually the doorbell. After living in his family mansion for tons of years, that was the first time he heard the doorbell ring. Percy was curious as to who it could have been, that was visiting, so he raised his hand towards the lock, intending to open the door when he remembered Grover's many warnings to NOT open the door. AT ALL. But Percy was curious, and besides, he could defend himself if whoever or whatever it was, decided to attack him. So he slowly opened the door, and saw a person in a long black coat. Percy was wondering who he was, when the guy put on a nice and friendly smile, and extended his hand towards him, and said, "Hi, I'm Luke. Nice to meet you."

Percy was a little stunned. He didn't know how to react. This was the first time since his parents' disappearance, that he was interacting with another person other than Grover and his helpers around the house. Besides, on a closer look, this guy was pretty good looking. He had short-cropped sandy blond hair that really complemented his face, and his startling sky blue eyes. Despite having a thick long scar over on the right side of his face, that extended from right under his eye to his jaw, he still looked pretty handsome. Percy wondered how he got it, since he seemed like a vampire, and they could heal.

Then, he realized that he didn't reply the guy and that the guy still had his hand out. And, he realized that he didn't know the guy. What use was just giving his name? Anyone could just give a name any old how. So, Percy asked while returning the handshake, "Who are you exactly?". At that moment, Grover came and started nagging at him again, for opening the door. That led to the visitor, a.k.a. Luke, explaining his reason for being there, and oh boy, who would have thought? That the news would be so shocking?

"My name is Luke, and I am from the Castellan Family. I'm here to take care of and accompany the young master of the house as a request from his parents."

Percy could not believe it. Request from his parents? They have been missing for a VERY long time. He needed to know more, so he allowed Luke to enter, to further discuss the matter. Luke presented him with a letter from his father to Luke's father. It was his father's handwriting, Percy was sure of it, as he had seen many of his father's written letters when he visited his father's study. The information on it was fairly disturbing, and thought invoking, but what was even more disturbing, was the incomplete letter, as the postscript was missing. It was odd. Why show him an incomplete letter? What information couldn't be disclosed to him at this point? He REALLY wanted to know. He always felt that his parents' disappearance was a weird incident, he had ALWAYS wanted to know more. And finally, that letter brought him a little, and really, it really was A LITTLE light, and yet the whole thing was still veiled and shrouded in mystery. He wanted to know, he wanted to know everything, what happened to his parents? Where were they? The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He felt abandoned, but above all, he felt lonely. Grover and his helpers in the house were great companions, but nobody could ever replace one's parents.

That night, as he thought about the day's events while heading towards the second floor bathroom(Percy has always bathed there, despite sleeping and spending most of his day in the basement room). He started his bath, and like usual, it was really relaxing, the heat on his skin was really soothing and calming. Suddenly, he felt a presence on his left, so he turned, and saw Luke. They made small chit chat, and Percy was really happy that Luke joined him in the baths, because it made him less lonely. After all, the bathroom was really big, that when one was alone in there, it felt a little foreboding. Percy observed Luke when he made his way to the showers. Luke had a really great body, he was muscular yet slim. His muscles were really toned, and he had a BIG...

Percy felt his face heat up, probably due to embarrassment, he thought. He quickly took a glance upwards at Luke's face, luckily Luke was rinsing his hair and didn't notice. Percy took a quick glance down again, and as quickly, he looked away. He couldn't believe he was admiring another person's body, especially his private part, and not to mention it was a guy. His face still felt hot, and he wondered if maybe he had been in the bath for too long. But, he was taking the same amount of time for a shower as usual, so it shouldn't feel hot that soon. What a weird feeling...

When Percy had stated his uncertainty of going to school to Luke, and Luke suddenly held his shoulders and assured him with a smile, "Don't worry, this is why I am here, to help you. But seeing as how you are able to talk so well with me right now, I wouldn't worry too much." Percy felt really happy and assured. As he looked into Luke's eyes, he saw sincerity and something he could not name, and he felt his heart skip a beat. He felt really hot, and slightly embarrassed, to which he did not understand the reason for, so he quickly finished his bath, said his greetings to Luke, and exited the bathing area. He squatted at the corridor of the bathroom, and fanned his face. He didn't understand what was happening to his body, was he having a fever? How did he suddenly get sick? Else, why would he have heart palpitations and sweaty palms?

At that moment, he heard a slight sound. It came from inside the bathroom, which meant, Luke. He thought maybe Luke accidentally slipped or something or felt some sort of pain? So he made his way to the end of the corridor so he could see what was happening when he froze. He saw Luke's side profile and saw that Luke's penis was slightly raised, and it definitely looked BIGGER than when he saw it while in his bath. He was shocked, he didn't know what to do so he hid behind the wall of the corridor, peeping at what Luke was doing. Percy felt stupid and guilty, for peeping at the first friend he made since forever, but he couldn't help his curiosity or keep his eyes away. He squatted low and made no sound.

Luke was moving his arms beneath the water, and Percy didn't know what Luke was doing, but he was moaning and grunting. After a while, Luke began to pant, Percy could physically see his chest heave, and suddenly, after Luke gave a "Mmph" sound, everything just kind of halted. Luke's hands, sounds he made, and even his heaving chest moved less. Percy stood up to leave seeing as he couldn't comprehend what Luke was doing anyway, but as he stood, he saw Luke looking at his hand, and there was this sticky fluid-like thing on it, despite it being washed away by the tub water. Percy was dumbfounded, he felt like asking Luke right then, but then there was this compelling atmosphere that made him decide against it.

That night, Percy couldn't fall asleep. In his brain, images of Luke's muscled body kept appearing, and Percy felt really really hot. Especially when he thought back to how Luke's penis was slightly raised and bigger. He felt his cheeks heat up, and his body as well, it was like the cells in his body were burning. It was really weird, and such a suffocating experience. It gradually lessened and stopped when he thought about his life from then on. His life in school and the new people that he was going to meet. His eyelids started to close and his consciousness started to fade. The last thought he had before his consciousness totally faded, was of Luke's smile when he assured Percy that Percy would do fine.

/BREAK/

The next morning, when Luke entered the dining room, Percy was contemplating on whether a not to ask him about the bathroom incident.


Author's note: Now we all know why Percy had a weird look on his face when Luke looked at him the next morning when they had breakfast. :'D
