Evaporated thoughts

[aiden]

Aiden shoved his hands deeper in his pockets, he was bored there was no question about it. None of the female slaves could tempt him and he had no idea where Sora had vanished to.
Alary and Emerald had vanished as well, but that was not surprising, everyone had come here for their own reasons and he was no different.

He walked to the very edge of the garden, its flowers really held nothing of interest for him , as he stood there overlooking the courtyard in front of the castle he pondered just grabbing the first female slave he saw and taking her to his room to vent his frustrations out on her body and then forgetting about her.

He was feeling the time here, slip by slowly when he was alone, he sighed loud and slowly, after all he was alone here..hell he could have stayed at home and been alone all he wanted.
Reaching up he rubbed the back of his neck and wondered if he should go back to the tavern and get sh*t faced this evening, it had promising prospects to this lazy day.

[Secret]

Secret's eyes roamed the gardens before her. Her legs shook as she walked through them timidly, scared beyond belief at how she had arrived at this place. Sure she'd wanted an adventure and definitely thought that this place had sounded cool. But being teleported? It was too insane for her to even consider analyzing. The note had explained everything about his palce and although she was a girl who liked the facts, she could still be scared shitless. And she most definitely was.

Something caught her eye and she clutched her purse tightly against her chest and held onto the strap of her school bag which she hadn't even had the time to be rid of. Gulping she quickly jumped around a bush of roses -which were completely amazing, she had to admit- and her eyes widened at the sight before her. There, not five feet infront of her stood a handsome young man. "Damn." she breathed, taking a shaky step forward.

She mustered up some curage and walked towards the male, a bright smile upon her red lips. She stopped and quickly reached into her purse to apply some shiney lip gloss that made her lips look like they'd been coated with glass and she grinned into her pocket mirror in self-satisfaction. She wasn't a knock out but she'd have to do. She really wished she was wearing something nicer than the long sleeved white shirt and tight blue jeans but she couldn't very well return home to change now could she?

"Hi ya, what's going on?"

[Jared Padackles]

Jared was OCD. This place, as clean and orderly as it was, didn't help him. He could control, but being "teleported" someplace like hell knows back he didn't know what to think. So he counted, as he usually did when he got scared or nervous. Up to seven, then five, than seven, than repeat as needed. Somehow, he had managed to find himself in a bloody rosegarden, and he was feeling so lost, insecure and it was eating away at him. He rounded a corner, and nearly dropped to the ground with relief.

"Secret?" He said aloud, disbelif catching in his breath Maybe he was dreaming. He moved forward, taking unsure steps, before he broke into a sprint.

"Scecret, s'at you?" He came closer, and stopped an arms length away.

[aiden]

Aiden had almost concluded getting drunk was the choice of the evening when a female's voice spoke somewhere behind him, "Hi ya, what's going on?"

The girl stood there, looking great, her smile is what held his eyes as he saw her lips shined in the fading sunlight of the day. He had never seemed anyone's lips do that and it made his mouth dry as he turned to face her completely.

"Hi" he told her but before he could say anything else a younger male appeared, he looked unsure until he spotted them and his face lit up so much that Aiden almost took a step back from the girl.

"Secret?" he called out in a low voice, that wavered slightly over the word. "Secret, s'at you?" He asked as he came to a stop a few feet away. Aiden glanced from him to the girl and wondered what secret she held for this male, his eyes moving over her body as any male's would before they returned to her face, he like the other guy waited for her to speak.

[Secret]

Secret smiled brightly at the familiar voice and turned to see Jared directly beside her. "JarBear! Oh my GOD! You came too??!!" She shrieked in happiness before throwing herself at him and hugging him tightly, excitment making her nearly tremble.

Pulling away, secret smiled exquisitely at her friend before turning back to the other man, her eyes widening as she got a better look at him. 'Christ he's tall.' She thought, walking towards him slightly; hand extended.

"Hi. I'm Secret, and this big oaf over here is my friend Jared. Were you invited to this place too? It's soo awesome, I'm like already in love with it. Like seriously, who could make a castle? It's like, just so phenominal."

She smiled brightly and waited for the handsome man infront of her to shake her hand and introduce himself.

[Jared Padackles]

Jared was usually calm in awkward situations.

"Uh, oh god," His voice squeaked. This was not one of those awkward situations. He nodded numbly to Secret's rant, and whimpered, collapsing to the ground and continued to sound like a puppy in distress, tugging lightly on his chocolate locks.

"Oh god, do we even know where we ARE?!" His voice rose each word and he looked up at his female friend with those wid, begging eyes, before looking at the man in front of them, blinking. He blushed furiously at what Secret refered to him as. But, it was better than Sasquatch or Puppy.

"Hey," He squeaked, raising a palm in a sort of wave, before he freaked out and grabbed a hold of Secret's shirt and lightly shook her. "This is not good for my OCD!!" He wailed in a comical whisper. He didn't like leaving places. But it could be handled as long as Secret was there.

[aiden]

Aiden smiled at the pair of them, he was not one to judge but the boy had a funny way about him. Turning towards the girl he smiled warmly at her as she introduced them.
"Hi. I'm Secret, and this big oaf over here is my friend Jared. Were you invited to this place too? It's soo awesome, I'm like already in love with it. Like seriously, who could make a castle? It's like, just so phenominal."

Her hand was held out and Aiden stepped closer and took it, but instead of shaking it he bent over and placed a small dry kiss upon its skin, before letting it go. "Its nice to meet you both, Secret and Jared." he said, nodding to Jared's wave, "I am Aiden, and yes I am a guest as well, its a nice castle. "

He began but Jared intruppted him by saying something about OCD. Aiden glanced around expecting to see this OCD person appear but when no one did, he held his tongue and didn't ask about it. "Did you both just arrive at the castle or have I just missed you in this large place?" he asked, his eyes returning to Secret, with the question.

[Secret]

Secret blushed furiously as he kissed her hand and she had the insane urge to go into fangirl/squee mode. Instead she bit her lip and smiled bashfully. At his question about how they'd gotten there she giggled. "Oh god no. We just got here. Well I know that I just got here like a little under a half an hour ago but I don't know about Jared here. " Secret twirled her hair unconsciously in her shyness and looked down, cocking a brow as she did a double take at her friends current sight.

"Jared, hun, you look like a puppy whose just gotten his bone taken away. You alright, sweetheart?" Secret bent over and rubbed her friends cheek tenderly, smiling reasuringly at him. "You poor thing, you must've gotten dragged her when I was teleported. You gonna be alright or do you need some meds? Advil? Motrin? One of my vegetarian vitamins?"

Secret's bright brown eyes brightened in concern for her friend and she turned to the other man. "Do you think you could help me get him up? I think he's gonna have a panic attack."

[Jared Padackles]

"I got here an hour ago." He murmured, biting a fire of anger back. No one flirted back with his supposed sister unless they went through him first. Letting it slip, he turned to Secret as she spoke about him being a puppy.

"I do not!" He grumbled. "I feel like I'm having a self image crisis, just freakin' worse!" He ducked his head against his chest, listening to the array of medication she listed, before snapping his head up. "What does freakin' veggie pills got to do with my condition!?" He nearly screamed, than looked at Aiden. Than, back to Secret, and fumed.

"I'm not having a panic attack! I swear!" He looked like a young child, but he calmed, and stood up. "I'm just... coping. With--" He didn't finish as he fell back, fainted from the reality of it all. His foot twitched once, but no more. He'd wake sooner or later. No worry.

[aiden]

Aiden stood there unsure what to say, they both talked english but tossed in another language which left him struggling to understand.
When Secret asked him to help Jared he walked over to the boy but stopped when Jared told them or at least it sounded like he said he was ok, before calmly passing out. Aiden came and knelt beside him, checking his pulse before picking Jared up in his arms and standing.

"I do not know where his OCD friend is, but perhaps we should get him inside the castle, its cooler and you can call Mr. Advil? or perhaps Mr. Motrin to come and check him." Aiden told her, starting to walk across the gardens towards the castles door with Jared passed out in his arms.

[Secret]

Secrets jaw nearly dropped. Her gaydar was going wild at the way that the man had had no second thoughts about picking up her fainted friend. She ran up after him, her expression that of confussion. "Did I offend you? I'm so sorry if you got uncomfortable and if you dig guys that's cool with me but I honestly didn't peg you for the gay type; no offense. You're just to... Hunky?" Secret blushed furiously and looked down, studying her sneakers.

"You know, if you just put him on that bench over there," Her hand waved absently at a bench by a bush of roses. "We could talk while we wait for him to wake up. Don't take this as me being mean or anything, but like he gets like this all the time and really all he needs a good little while to sleep it off. He'll wake up sooner or later." Secret smiled brightly at him but felt her heart sink at the thought of this handsome man being into her friend Jared.

"Umm maybe we should just go in. But I'll have you know, Jared doesn't like guys so you don't have a chance. Even if you are cute, he's got a thing for girls so if you're interested in him, you're totally setting yourself up for a heart break."

Secret drooped her head and sighed sadly. 'And here I thought that he was into chicks. Should've known I didn't have a fighting chance with a guy like him.'

[aiden]

Aiden stumbled and swung around to stare at Secret, "What?" he asked her and then shook his head, he glanced at the boy he carried and back at her.
"I am ...what?" he said shaking his head slightly and walking over to put Jared on the bench like she suggested, then he turned and held up his hands.

"I do not ...I am not that way." he told her, a sweat breaking out across the back of his neck. "I am not into men, yes one might have tempted me, but I never did...I like females just fine thank you Secret" he told her, putting his hands on his hips as if he was still surprised she thought him that way.
He turned to glance at Jared, then back to her.

"I picked him up cause he was passed out, people do not pass out regularly here." he explained, paniced that she though him gay, he gave a small chuckle, "I am glad I am not set up for heartache after all." he told her hoping to change her mind, and get off the subject.

[Secret]

Secret's eyes widened and her hand flew to her mouth in surprise. "Oh snap! I am soo sorry! Please don't get pissed off at me or anything It was just-I-where I come from it's just that..." Secret trailed off, shaking her head in disbelief.

She couldn't believe what she had just done. Accusing a guy of being gay back in her time could her a girl's hair yanked out of her skull and face smashed into the ground. She quickly shrugged out of her sweater and placed it over Jared's unconscious form so that he wouldn't getto cold before turning back to the man before her. She shivered at the loss of warmth and the wind seemed to breeze right on through her thin, long sleeved white top. It sported an Old Navy logo on it but that was just about it.

Chewing her lower lip she laughed slightly at Aiden's joke of not being set up for heart break and approached him timidly. "Well I'm glad you aren't going to put the moves on my sweet little Jared here or you might give the poor boy cardiac arrest." She laughed at her joke before remembering Aiden's confusion at medicines and stated simply, "It might make him faint again."

Biting her cheek she shivered. "Sooo... What goes on at this place anyways? Like what could a girl like me do here for fun?" Her big brown eyes looked searchingly up into his and she smiled sweetly at him, glad that he wasn't gay yet still slightly upset at the knowledge that he would never go for a girl like her.

[aiden]

Aiden was still trying to figure out what had snapped but shook it off as he watched her take off her sweater, her shirt under neithe very white and very thin. He smiled when she came to stand near him and asked him what a girl like her could do there to have fun.

He stepped closer to her, looking down at her pretty face and unclasped his cloak, he pulled it off and without asking her, he wrapped it around her shoulders.
"I think you will find many diversions here, and if I may be bold enough to say, I hope I am among them." he told her as he clasped the silver wolf head that held the cloak together.

"There this way the wind will not chill you, since you have given up your warmth for your friend, I have no problem given up mine for a lady." he told her, stepping back and thinking it was cute how his large cloak kind of drowned her small form. " A very pretty lady, I may become jealous of my cloak, for it gets to be closer to you then I." he told her with a smile.

[Secret]

Secret wrapped her arms around herself at the sudden chill. 'Fuck it's cold.' She inwardly groaned and was about to wish Jared to hell and take back her sweater when Aiden stepped closer to her, wrapping his own cloak around her as he spoke in that oh-so sexy voice of his.

"I think you will find many diversions here, and if I may be bold enough to say, I hope I am among them."

Secret blushed furiously, ducking her head down in confusion. She didn't know exactly what he had meant but maybe it had something to do with that letter that had been sent to her. She vaguely recalled something about the word 'Pleasure' written in there but shrugged it off. A guy like Aiden didn't take an interest in a chick like her.

"There this way the wind will not chill you, since you have given up your warmth for your friend, I have no problem given up mine for a lady. A very pretty lady, I may become jealous of my cloak, for it gets to be closer to you then I."

Secret openly gaped at the statement and had to shake her head clean of all the cobwebs. Clearly this man did not just compliment her! ... Did he?

"Maybe we could-sit maybe-err like at the bench?" Secret waved her hand over to a empty bench and although it appeared slightly smaller than the one that Jared now snored upon, Secret was sure that the two of them could fit upon it.

Secret walked over to it and plopped down, looking to Aiden to ask, "So what do you do here? Like I'm not sure why I'm here, all I know is that I am. Do you know like the history of this place or what goes on here? Because I honestly don't know what it is that I do here. Like I'm here, so now what?" All the while she'd been talking, her hands had been moving and guesturing around as she spoke to give exclaimation to certain points.

She pulled the heavy, over sized cloak tighter around her and sighed contentedly at the heat she found herself wrapped up within.

[aiden]

"Maybe we could-sit maybe-err like at the bench?" Secret waved her hand over to a empty bench ,Aiden smiled at her small stumble of words and wondered if he embarrassed her, to him most females expected to be complimented, it was a norm to do so.

Secret walked over to it and plopped down, looking to Aiden to ask, "So what do you do here? Like I'm not sure why I'm here, all I know is that I am. Do you know like the history of this place or what goes on here? Because I honestly don't know what it is that I do here. Like I'm here, so now what?"
Aiden walked over and took a seat beside her, the bench barely left room for either of them once they were seated and he put his arm over the back of the bench behind her to make room.
"This castle is tailored to wards pleasure Secret, as a guest here, you can find a lot of things to keep you entertained. " he told her, unsure just what she wanted to know, his fingers touching her far shoulder as he talked.

"There is a library, music room, slaves for pleasure. Horses to ride, a village if the castle holds no interest, plus other guests Like myself to know better, if that is what you are looking for." he told her, making sure to slip the slave part in the middle so it would get lost in his other words. He turned his eyes to meet hers, "Tell me Secret, what do you do for pleasure?" he asked, a small smile on his lips as he sniffed and wondered why she smelled so different from the other ladies he had encountered so far, her scent smelled almost of flowers, then he realized it was not her...but the rose garden and was a bit disappointed.

[Secret]

Aiden put his arm around the bench and Secret nearly melted. His fingers brushed her shoulder and she squee'd inwardly. 'Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh!!' Secret was screaming girlishly on the inside yet on the outside she was blushing just as furiously as she was screaming. She looked rather childish she had to admit.

"This castle is tailored to wards pleasure Secret, as a guest here, you can find a lot of things to keep you entertained. There is a library, music room, slaves for pleasure. Horses to ride, a village if the castle holds no interest, plus other guests Like myself to know better, if that is what you are looking for."

His eyes bore into hers and Secret gasped unconsciously, suddenly feeling rather vulnerable. The cloak wrapped around her constricted her breathing and she found herself heavy of breath -or at least that's what she blaimed it on.

"Tell me Secret, what do you do for pleasure?"

Secret's eyes buggted nearly out of her skull at the question and she literally fell backwards a bit into his arms, staring up into his eyes, hers wide with shock. "Pleas-pleasure? I uhh I do lots of stuff. I read, write, sing, ummm and I like to talk a lot although sometimes when I start to talk I ramble a bit and peopel tend to get like uber pissed at me but that's alright because if I'm in the mood to talk than I'm not going to care about what someone else cares about and I'll just keep chattering about and--Wait!" Secret's eyes went even wider as something that Aiden had mentioned earlier was spoken of.

"There is a library, music room, slaves for pleasure..."

Gasping Secret sputtered a little before squeaking out, "They have SLAVES here? Like Pleasure Slaves? Like the one's in those old romance novels my gramma's always reading? Holy shit!"

[aiden]

"Pleas-pleasure? I uhh I do lots of stuff. I read, write, sing, ummm and I like to talk a lot although sometimes when I start to talk I ramble a bit and people tend to get like uber pissed at me but that's alright because if I'm in the mood to talk than I'm not going to care about what someone else cares about and I'll just keep chattering about and--Wait!" Secret's eyes went even wider, Aiden had been smiling while she talked, he liked the way she talked without stopping to take a breath, but when her eyes widen he pulled his fingers from where they laid against her shoulder, thinking he had offended her.

Gasping Secret sputtered a little before squeaking out, "They have SLAVES here? Like Pleasure Slaves?Like the one's in those old romance novels my gramma's always reading? Holy shit!" Aiden laughed slightly at her, he reached out and took one of the hands that was always on the move when she talked.

"I do not think there is any thing holy about pleasure slaves Secret." he told her, "But if that is what you seek, I am sure Lord Cashel might be able to find you someone holy to be with." he told her, clearly misunderstanding what she had meant.

"I am surprised if your grandmother is well versed in this kind of thing she has not spoken of it with you. Pleasure slaves are common here, and a good job for those lucky few who can do the job." he told her.

He shifted closer to her and smiled, she was a bit young for him but something about her attracted her. "You are a beauty girl, I am sure any slave would be pleased to warm your bed and body for you." he told her, letting his blue eyes drop to her body, the cloak he had given her concealing most from him.

"I met a very nice slave the other night, Sora. But I only spent a few hours with her talking in the village, she is someone who could explain things better then me about that sort of thing if you wish to learn more." he told her.

[Secret]

Secret wanted to protest as Aiden removed his hand, liking the feel of it's solid warmth upon her shoulder. Yet when he stopped her hand from guesturing and took it within his own, she completely melted, her eyes falling into the beautiful blue pools of liquid which were Aiden.

"I do not think there is any thing holy about pleasure slaves Secret. But if that is what you seek, I am sure Lord Cashel might be able to find you someone holy to be with."

Secret cocked a brow at this, laughing hystarically till tears came to her eyes. What he had next to say nearly had her splitting at the seams.

"I am surprised if your grandmother is well versed in this kind of thing she has not spoken of it with you. Pleasure slaves are common here, and a good job for those lucky few who can do the job."

Secret could just picture her Gramma being well versed in sex, knowing all about it. She nearly fell off the bench as tears rapidly fell from her eyes, her mirth obvious. He shifted closer to her and she instantly stopped her obscene laughter, her eyes going wide as their thighs touched and a jolt of electiricity raced straight through her. 'Oh god, why did you have to make me sit next to such a gorgeous man? You're such a flipping tease...'

"You are a beauty girl, I am sure any slave would be pleased to warm your bed and body for you. I met a very nice slave the other night, Sora. But I only spent a few hours with her talking in the village, she is someone who could explain things better then me about that sort of thing if you wish to learn more." He told her, and Secret furrowed her brows together at this.

"Aiden, I'm not following. First of all, my Gramma wouldn't know a thing about sex, and second, 'holy shit' is like me yelling out in surprise, you know? It's not the best type of language and my Mom would be mad with me for using it but still, it isn't something that could be related to 'pleasure' in any ways at all. Oh! And I don't know what you mean about pleasure slaves and me looking for one. I don't like the idea of controling some random person and just doing the nasty with them. I could get aids - err a bad disease from it. Or even pregnant! And like I'm only seventeen so really, I don't have the brains or money to look after a full family at the moment."

Secret shook her head, a smile upon her rosy lips. "You're hilarious. When I make love with a man, it has to be special, you know? It can't just be for release or fun but more so for a mutual affection between me and him. I want to know he cares about me and him to know that I would do anything for him. It isn't something a girl can easily throw away. Well at least not this girl."

Secret had been so caught up in her chatter that she didn't even notice that she'd unconsciously snuggled up against his chest slightly, soaking in his warmth which radiated off his solid chest. She'd never admit it but she loved the compliments he bestowed upon her, and she purposely avoided thanking him for them because they made her feel kind of awkward and unsure if he was just trying to flatter her or actually being genuine about it.

[aiden]

Aiden was taken back by her sudden burst of laughter, he had no clue what brought it on and sat there like a fool feeling she was truly laughing at him. But as quick as her laughter began it stilled, what changed he didn't know as he watched her while she spoke.

"Aiden, I'm not following. First of all, my Gramma wouldn't know a thing about sex, and second, 'holy shit' is like me yelling out in surprise, you know? It's not the best type of language and my Mom would be mad with me for using it but still, it isn't something that could be related to 'pleasure' in any ways at all. Oh! And I don't know what you mean about pleasure slaves and me looking for one. I don't like the idea of controlling some random person and just doing the nasty with them. I could get aids - err a bad disease from it. Or even pregnant! And like I'm only seventeen so really, I don't have the brains or money to look after a full family at the moment."

Secret shook her head, a smile upon her rosy lips. "You're hilarious. When I make love with a man, it has to be special, you know? It can't just be for release or fun but more so for a mutual affection between me and him. I want to know he cares about me and him to know that I would do anything for him. It isn't something a girl can easily throw away. Well at least not this girl."

Aiden nodded and listened and then stopped breathing! She moved closer as she talked and her head laid against his chest, he was scared she would hear the increase in his heart beat as she spoke of loving a man when she laid with him.

"Um...you seem to know what you want Secret" he told her, wondering is she wanted him to put his arm around her. Taking the chance he did, and held her against him, she was a bit young..he was scared to hurt her if he followed through with what his mind wanted and his body craved from her.

Shifting slightly on the bench he glanced at her friend the snores from him were surprising for such a small guy. "Here one does not use slaves as they might where your from, here the slave does nothing they do not wish to do. Everyone needs comfort and closeness even them, perhaps thats why they are good at their jobs...they wish that closeness even with a stranger." he told her, glancing around and then looking down at her, he slowly lowered his head and inhaled the smell of her hair.

Nothing in this world was more desirable then the smell of a females hair and his body almost jerked at its scent.He was concerned though, his desire for her was strong and being this close he wanted nothing more then to taste her. "Perhaps we should walk around, keep warm till your friend wakes?" he asked, hoping to still these thoughts of her in his head...before he gave in and made them real, knowing she would shove him away if he tried to kiss her, after her speech of wanting more then just a guy.
