A Package Part 2

[Hue]

Sorry for the long delay, lets just say I had some pressing matters that needed my full attention. Anyway I have part two up, and I would like to mention that this is going to be a slow paced, thought out story. There won't be too much action in the beginning. Anyway like I said before this is my first story, so I would like to say sorry for any mistakes or anything I make along the way. I would also like to apologize for the short entry. Like I said I haven't really had any time to work on this. Without further delay here is part two.



I was directed through the house, up a small stair case that spiraled and overlooked the entire living room which was decorated in a style I could care less for. The landing above played home to a pool table and an entertainment center. I gazed in awe over the technology that was housed there. Not only did they have the most up to date gaming systems but they had one of those new 3D, HD flat screen television sets. I looked over to Mrs. Davison, who blushed a deep scarlet.

?It wasn't my idea,? she squeaked while trying to usher me away from the lavish looking area ?my husband insisted on buying so much to keep Ricky entertained.?

The name was like a rifle going off in my heart, I felt the color drain away from my face and I'm sure Mrs. Davison saw it. She pursed her lips and clucked over me like a worried hen. ?Oh Ryan there's no need to worry, why Ricky won't even notice you're here...? and she continued to speak trying to cover for her son's mistakes.

Its hard to think of Ricky as a person, let alone an old friend. But everything had changed so suddenly it sent me into shell shock. It made me retreat into myself further than I had ever been. I placed a barrier around my inner thoughts and feelings. I didn't let anyone it, not even myself. I was Fort Nox, and nothing was allowed in... or out.


Suddenly we stopped moving, I looked up and around, we were in a medium sized room with a queen double bed in the corner and a nice looking armwor on the other side. There also a desk to the far north corner with a fairly nice looking desktop DELL on it.

?This will be your room, its an old guest room and its never used unless one of our laptops break down, then we use the desktop there for office work.? Mrs. Davison looked down at me and smiled. She stood five feet nine inches, while I stood at the small dimension of five seven. ?Do you like it??

I stepped away from her side and explored the room. It looked a lot better than my old room at home. The carpet was a nice fluffy white, better than the molding brown shag I was accustomed to. The walls didn't have water stains, and the ceiling wasn't chipping away. I suddenly found myself on the side of the bed, running a hand through its warm fabric. I turned up to thank Mrs. Davison, but she had already left the room, she was probably still busy and had to get back to work, and as if on que she reentered the room, cellphone in hand.

?Ryan, I have to go okay hun? The office just called I need to go. Remember, this is your home now.? she gave me a reassuring smile and began talking back into the phone. I gave her a small smile myself, to spite the conflicting feelings I was having in my gut. ?Yes, yes just have the paperwork in my office I'm heading out now.? she gave me nod and quickly vanished from my sight.

As I sat in silence I could hear the van kick back on, and the sound of gravel crushing under tires. Once again, I was alone. I didn't feel much like exploring the house, I felt deep down that this wouldn't last. Somehow I knew that Ricky would try to get me out of here, and fast. It was only a matter of time. I fell hard back onto the bed, the soft plush comforted my body. Like everything in this house, the bed was so much better than my old one. It was nothing but a box of springs on the floor. Suddenly the exhaustion of the day began to lay into me. My body felt heavy and my eyelids betrayed me as they slowly began to droop. The last thing I heard before falling asleep was the door to the house closing.


I was in the high school, but the halls were empty. Every locker in the school was open, the contents were gone. The PA system buzzed darkly as my shoes squeaked on the reflective surfaces of the floor tiles. Suddenly every locker in the building slammed shut, and the PA system screeched loudly. The sound was so shocking I found myself on my knees, crumpled into the fetal position. And then... they were around me. Dark creatures with red eyes, they were laughing at me, poking me with clawed hands and feet. And then the pain set in. They began punching me, kicking me anything that could inflict pain. It was horrible... the pain was so intense that I felt my body start to go numb. Then, just as sudden as it happened it stopped. I carefully opened my eyes, too afraid to see what halted the attack. The dark creatures were no longer around me. Instead I saw a glowing light. It pulsed softly around me, bathing me in its warm light. Slowly the school building began to melt away into this light until it was all I could see. I felt safe, protected in the light's embrace. I wanted nothing more than to just lose myself inside this paradise...

?What the hell...??


My dream world was shattered suddenly. The light left my body, and I felt cold. My eyes shot open and was met by a dark room. It was late, that I could tell. The only light that shown into the room was that from the doorway. I had to sit up to see properly what had awoken me from my dream. A silhouette of a man stood there, his body almost filling the doorway completely. I was still groggy from my sleep though and had not begun to grasp where I was or why I was here.

?What are you doing here?? asked a deep frightening voice. Suddenly I felt very awake. My body went rigid with fright and as if by instinct I crawled over to the nearest corner of the bed and drew my legs hard up against my chest. ?How the hell did you get into my house?? the body took a menacing step forward. I closed my eyes hard, and began to tremble. An odd silence broke through the room. It was so quite that I felt like shouting, just to get some noise back into the room. ?Why are you here?? asked the voice again, this time the tone had obviously softened, but there was still a tense form of authority there.

?M-Mrs. Davison b-brought me here.? my own voice was week and shaky. I felt sickened by my own inability to be tough... to be strong. The body in the doorway gave a loud groan of anguish and stomped out of the room slamming the guest room door behind him. I had only one guess as to who that was, and frankly I was surprised that I had not suffered more than just a frightening experience.

I could hear him downstairs now, talking loudly on the phone almost yelling into it. I shudder to think what he would do to me after the phone call. Hopefully, like at high school he would just insult my character and be off on his way. Usually he would let the underlings beat me up. But since there was no one else here... maybe he would... my mind suddenly went numb at the thought. All I could do was sit there on the bed, staring at the darkness in the room. I could hear the conversation had turned for the better, Ricky was no long shouting, that much I could tell. Then came his heavy footfalls. I couldn't tell if he was either mad or that was just how he walked now. The door creaked loudly as it was opened, and there he stood. Ricky must have been home quite some time, he was dressed in a casual at home rest style. He wore a tight wife-beater and a pair of lose flannels. The wife-beater exposed his perfect pectorals and abdominal. I had to look away quickly, just like in a high school setting I was socially not allowed to stare too long at a man. Ricky had closed the gap between us quickly as I looked away, he was standing at the edge of the bed. I could feel his gaze burning into the back of my neck.

?Your not going to look at me?? he asked with a voice that was forced to remain calm.

My body started to shake, just like at school. It was as if my body had built up a system to prepare itself for pain, be that pain physical or mental. ?I-I'm sorry...? those two words, they were the only words I would use when around Ricky. I didn't know what I did... I don't know why this had happened but I had a feeling that it was all because of me.

I could hear the muscles in Ricky's arms tighten. I made the mistake of looking and meeting his gaze. Those eyes... those hard cold eyes stared back at me. It made me want to crawl into a hole and die. ?Is that all you can say, all you want to say?? his booming voice made my skin crawl. My body knew what was going to happen next so I scrunched into a ball and buried my head into my legs.

?I'm sorry.? I said again, this time in a quieter tone.

Ricky gave out a bellow of anguish and I heard something being hit. The sound was so sudden I had to look up and see what happened. Ricky's arm was sticking out of the wall above the bed's headboard. I stared, wide eyed at what had happened. Ricky too stared, but didn't seem surprised by his strength but agitated. Probably because he would have to explain why there was a hole in the wall now. He withdrew his arm from the wall, his fist didn't have a scratch on it. He pulled away from my side and turned to the door. ?Keep out of my way, got it?? he asked with a glare. I nodded dumbly and watched as the young Hercules exited and slam the door behind him. This was going to be a long year.

I am SO glad you got back to this story. There are so many ways this could go. I love stories with these complex relationships. Our antagonist has already grown remarkably and it changed him for the worst. Will there be any more growth? Maybe even by our hero?

Don't worry about it being too long or indirect. That doesn't matter when it's good.

Keep going!

Those poor boys will be so much happier with homosexuality in their lives.

This was wonderful.

[Jack of Blades]

Yay! I'd almost forgotten this story, but when I started reading it it was "Oh, That one! that's a really good one! So glad he carried it on."
Which I am. Very glad. Please do continue. I'm hoping things will start to solve themselves in due course.
