Exquisite aroma from fine cuisine penetrated Julius' nose. A string quartet orchestra melodiously entertained the diverse guests as they cheered and socialized with one another. Although separated by a caste system, this was the event of the year, everyone who was anyone was invited to attend the annual banquet.
Julius looked around meticulously taking in all of the ambiance. His eyes caught sight of a very bountiful long table and quickly made his way to it.
At his young age of 18, Julius was a mischievous young man. Severely protected by his mother, Julius seldomly partook in social events.
Dressed in his finest suede clothing trimmed in lace, Julius was hypnotically attractive. His brown wavy hair swayed back and forth while his blue eyes twinkled, and his peachy tinted lips curled at the sight of delicious pastry. Julius was hypnotized by the sounds and the sights of the festivities leading him to loose himself.
Tracing his strong delicate hand along the table cloth, Julius made his way to the big chocolate cookies. He gently picked up the dessert and placed it in his mouth and closed it savoring the delicacy.
"Mmm." Julius moaned tasting the flavored cookie, he opened his eyes and looked around embarrassed hopeful no one had witnessed his dessert orgasm.
Unbeknownst to Julius, he was the focus of a young spectator that had arrived earlier and had been quietly following Julius' every move. Julius discreetly took another cookie and ate it. His moaning was received with a chuckle which Julius heard. Julius opened his eyes wide and with full embarrassment he sought out his audience. He looked all around until his gaze fell upon a gilded mirror which reflected the image of a masterpiece incarnate.
Breathless and completely taken aback by the young man's beauty, Julius laid his gaze on a curly hair blonde, green eyes, ethereal man. Dressed in top tier fine clothing, the young man had his right hand in his pant pocket and he was slowly advancing towards Julius.
Julius unwavering his gaze off the mirrored image, meticulously took in every detail he could see. Rosy cheeks, white teeth, strong built, seductive swag and an elegant presence is what hypnotized Julius from his first gaze.
"Thump." Julius heard his heart pound and then his world went silent. Standing behind him, he could feel the young man's presence. Julius felt his body slightly pressed against the table while the young man reached for a chocolate cookie for himself.
Still looking at the mirror, Julius made eye contact with him. For an endless minute they locked eyes, Julius could see the attractive young man studying his face. The mysterious stranger placed the cookie in his mouth and bit into it. "Mm." He moaned sending Julius a teasing smile. Julius looked down boyishly bashful when he heard the young man speak. "Definitely sinful." He said huskily but before Julius could turn around, a young woman took the young man's hand and pulled him towards her.
"Vomeo! Dance with me!" The young lady giggled.
Julius followed the young man's silhouette until he reached the dance floor. Slowly, Julius turned around and began to walk towards the dance floor. Cautious of not being obvious, Julius stole discreet glances tracking Vomeo's every move.
Dancing to the modern day waltz, Vomeo searched for the object of his affection. Instantly laying his eyes upon Julius, Vomeo was hooked.
"That young man over there, Bella, who is he? I fear I have not met his acquaintance." Vomeo asked distracted with Julius' masculine movements. Bella looked at the direction Vomeo was looking at and frowned.
"Do you speak of the gorgeous hottie that can't take his eyes off you, darling?" Bella asked looking at Julius who knew he was discovered.
"Yes. I suppose so." Vomeo responded gazing at the direction Julius was standing and looking aloof.
"That is a dream dear cousin. Don't dream. He is off limits." Bella said seeing Vomeo grin. "Vomeo, I am serious, he is off limits." Bella said sternly whisking Vomeo away from the dance floor. Julius followed the couple out until he no longer could see them.
In a blink of an eye, Julius was distracted when he heard his cousin speaking to him.
"Julius! Is this not wonderful! This is grand! And you finally got to enjoy the perks of it!" Tibel said admiring the scene.
"Yes cousin! It is quite the event! However, I shall ask you about young people, when will I meet my peers? I long for companionship and fellowship. Isn't this the purpose for me attending the banquet?" Julius asked his older cousin.
"Soon Julius." Tibel responded looking around like he was scanning the room. After a brief moment of satisfaction, Tibel walked Julius to the dance floor and introduced him to his peers.
Julius enjoyed his time living his lavish life.
Even though he was socially full, Julius could not shake the thought, more like the need, to meet the mysterious young man he had seen before. He searched everywhere but did not see the beautiful man. Julius located the young woman who had been with the young man, she was coming from the back of the banquet hall. Instinctively Julius made his way to the back, his heart began to pound fast, his hands went wet and his throat dry. Julius took a deep breath as he stood in front of the double panel glass doors, he placed his hands on the doors and pushed them opened.
To his dismay, the balcony in front of him was empty.
Julius walked to the balcony to take in the crisp air, the smells and noises within the venue were beginning to overwhelm him. He noticed the biggest moon he had ever seen in front of him, he smiled and made his way to the edge of the terrace and reclined against it. Looking up, reaching his hand towards the night sky trying to grasp the moon, Julius began to speak. "What wonderment lays before me but a star as bright as the sun dressed in starry illumination staring back at me. A perfection, a beauty, is that not so?"
"There is no other fine beauty but the one I see before me." Julius heard a baritone voice say. Julius turns around and meets Vomeo's sparkling eyes.
"Have my eyes perished and gone to heaven for I see an angel next to me." Julius coquetted discreetly.
"If you are in heaven then I am equally in paradise for who is before me can only exist in utopia." Vomeo returned the flirtation.
Slowly, coming towards Julius, Vomeo lifted Julius' hand and raised it to his lips gently pecking a tender kiss. "I am Vomeo, and you are?" Vomeo inquired as he gazed into Julius' entrancing mirrored lenses.
"Lovely to make your acquaintance Vomeo, I am.." Julius was saying when he was interrupted.
"Take your hands of him at once!" Vomeo heard an older man say as he walked hurriedly towards Julius. "Never lay your filthy hands on him!" Tibel warned slapping Vomeo's hand brusquely away.
"Cousin!" Julius gasped at the horror of ill mannerism his cousin demonstrated.
