terror of asteria

Chapter three: a romantic journey

after a few days of resting at ernests house the three decided to go search for ambrosia who got lost during the goat herd attack, david was given a new and sharper polearm and carlos was given a brand new katana that ernest didnt use. 

"tomorrow u need to be rested if u want to find ambrosia". you should all sleep. said ernest as he washed the dishes that they all ate from "yea,we should really get to sleep its getting late" said carlos as he yawned, david and isabella get up from the table and they go to the hammocks, but carlos remains in the kitchen a bit more with ernest. "soo this guy david, you got feelings for him?" ernest asked carlos as he dried his hands with a towel. carlos's face flushed red and his eyes widened, "i-um wel- uh-" carlos tried to get  something out of his mouth but words wouldnt come out, only stupid stutters. 

the next morning arrived and everyone woke up, ernest prepared food and provisions for everyone and sent them on their way. 30 minutes after leaving ernests house they came across a hotspring in the bamboo forest, "you guys wanna get in?? we all need some relaxation after what we went trough" said isabella as she put her backpack down, "eugh but were gonna have to be naked to get in there, i dont wanna see you bitches naked" david said with a chuckle. "ohhh but i really just wanna sit down and relax for a minute tho" said carlos as he took his shirt off. "you know what? whatever its not gonna be the end of the world anyway" david took his clothes off and he walked to the hotspring, he put a leg in and then he finally submerged into the hot water, carlos and isabella did the same and they got in carefully not to slip on the wet rocks.

"woah this sure feels good.." carlos said with his eyes closed as he went in deeper and deeper in the hotspring, david couldnt  help but stare at his big pecs and strong arms, the way the water drops trinkeled down  on his body made it more hot all together. carlos has an athletic body, and hes tall. isabella got out after a few minutes cause she was getting dizzy from all the heat and went to sleep in a tree, carlos kept glancing at davids small waist and the freckles on his chest, he was getting turned on by that. 

"hey david?" carlos asked while getting closer to david who was resting his head on his head on a stone with his hair halfway into the water. david turned around to look at carlos and tied his hair in a messy bun, "yea?" he said with a groggy tone, carlos hearing davids sleepy voice and seeing him with his messy bun was a mind disaster for him. he couldnt fathom how such beauty was right infront of him "so i uhm...i- i like you..in a romantic way and i was wondering if u were feeling the same way" carlos said while fidgeting with his fingers the whole time, his face was a mess. as david heard this he didnt know what to say, its almost like they forgot the makeout sessions from when the world was normal. "carlos...i really dont know what to s-' before he could finish his sentence carlos grabbed davids waist and pulled him into a kiss. 

in that moment all sorts of flashbacks were going trough davids head from that cursed night with the king, he got scared and used his light magic to lift carlos in the air and throw him into a tree.

-IM SO SORRY OMG. david yelled as he quickly grabbed his clothes from the ground and quickly put them on, isabella woke up and quickly got down from the tree."what happpened??" isabella asked as she ran to carlos on the ground. "I-i dont know i didnt mean to do it he just-" david stuttered while walking to carlos, "what did you do to him david??" isabella yelled at david while holding carlos.

after a few minutes carlos opened his eyes to see isabella and david argue with each other in the distance. he put his hand forward and used his telekinesis to throw a small stone at isabella, "OW WHAT THE FUCK!!" she yelled while looking in the direction from where the stone was thrown only to see carlos awake, "hey he woke up" she said to david, they help carlos get up from the ground and david hands him his clothes. after some minutes of talking carlos touches davids shoulder and signals him to come with him "i didnt mean to come like that onto you david, i just couldnt resist it anymore...im sorry please forgive me" carlos said while looking into davids eyes. "its alright i guess.." david said. they stood there for a few seconds and then david walked away, leaving carlos alone, he started crying and collapsed to his knees.
