It has been a week since that night out. Neither Theo nor Jeremy spoke anything about it. Theo doesn't even remember what happened that night, the only thing he remembered was waking up in his underwear next to Jeremy in his private room. He didn't even wake him up when he realized that moment but escaped his room silently.

The hangover he had waking up that day brought him so much confusion and he couldn't ask Jeremy what might happen as he figured something happened.

My asshole doesn't hurt though?

That's what he keeps overthinking and everything seems fine down there. Maybe he was the one who topped? He's not sure... but why would he engage in something so sexual when he doesn't even identify himself as gay. That's too suspicious.

He knew that was one of the sexual penetration when he heard his friends talking about it. He tried to avoid engaging in that kind of discussion since it might bring him another kind of embarrassment. 

Jeremy didn't talk about it when Theo doesn't even ask about it in the first place. He was just following him wherever he goes and they don't seem to talk very much. Theo's avoiding him and Jeremy noticed that because when he asked the king, he would only get one to two words answer and simply looked away avoiding any of his stares.

For a week, Theo put his attention on their training and the outcome of his speech to the public. He called his mom for that and she told him that everything is under control. When he heard that news, he felt so much relief in his chest that he could set it aside for the moment while putting his all attention to something needs his physical attention.

During the lunch break, Jeremy's eating at a different table while Theo's sitting with Stanley and Yussuf.

"Are we going to be invited on your coronation day?" Stanley asked.

"No," Theo answered directly.

Both felt disappointed when he said that. Theo noticed that and how they fell into silence, he broke it by laughing.

"How are you guys so serious? You're in training to be part of the royal guards. Obviously, you'll be there."

"We won't get front seats?" Yussuf asked.

Theo smirked. "I'm afraid you won't be. That's not my call to make, but I'm sure you'll be there on duty."

"That sucks," Yussuf commented. "Can we just join in the after party... if there's one?"

Theo laughed. "Sure, whatever..."

"You still didn't tell us where you went out last Friday," Stanley questioned. "We were looking for you. We thought you just had to run in the restroom, but then you were one. Your guard was gone, too."

He pointed out Jeremy who was sitting five tables away from them.

"Just somewhere else..."

"Yeah?" Yussuf hummed. "The only place near the pub was the stripping club. Did you guys go there? You said you don't have any sexual experiences. Have you found yours?"
