Despite all the emails I've gotten, I've only had three votes, one for Zack, one for Matt, and one for Benj (in the opposite order), and that's not making it easy to decide which one to go with~ As always - donate to Nifty to keep the archive running! In the last chapter, Xander ran away and met David, a young man who shares his last name, whose great-grandfather is one of the richest men in the country. A couple of days later, Xander rides home with David's great-grandfather, and when he gets home, he's acting completely different than before. Finn still cannot figure out what it is about Xander's journals that bother him, though I've given some pretty subtle hints about it, though they're unavailable to Finn or any of the NLXK cast. Try figuring out what it is, and if you think you know what it is, message me! ~~Chapter Nine – Nightmare From the Past~~ [Xander] "Today will be a good day," it won't be. "I'm stupid," very stupid. "I'm ugly," extremely ugly, that's really why David didn't force me to have sex with him. "And I woke up this morning," since that's required. And it IS a negative. I don't like that I woke up. But I'm not going to kill myself. I'm too stupid to do it right, so why bother trying? "I..." is there anything positive about me at all? "I..." I can't really think of anything. "I'm ambidextrous," though my handwriting sucks regardless of which hand I use. "I'm, um...," yeah, can't think of a second thing. But he made me promise that I'd do at least three things. "I can't think of anything else. Um...does liking dogs count as a positive thing? Let's go with I like dogs, and they like me, for number two. Except Jack, who hates me. He tried to bite my hand off. That's only two. I like fruit. That's a positive thing, fruit's healthy." I can't even think of positive things about myself to say. I wonder if David knows that he's asking me to do an impossible task with that. At least I'm allowed to do things dealing with me are positive, such as me liking fruit. I like eating healthy foods, which means that that's a positive thing I can use, even though it's not a positive thing about me. After I finish doing that, I go back to brushing my teeth, then make sure they're clean. They are. I never get cavities, I'm careful to make sure I take care of my teeth, even when I run. Then I realize something. "I've got good teeth," I say. "That's a positive thing. They're strong and healthy and white and clean. But I've got a horrible smile." I try smiling at the mirror, watching my reflection. I look stupid when I smile, so I stop, then go and get dressed. Today's the fourth day after my return, and they're making me go to school starting today. No one at school knows I ran away, as far as they're aware, I was sick, and my running away was kept private, on the down-low, as I think they say. I think. I'm not sure. I'm too stupid to know if I'm using that term properly. I go downstairs, where one of the maids is preparing breakfast. Mr. Scott's sitting at the kitchen table, reading the newspaper. "Good morning, Xander," he greets me as I take my seat. "Good morning, Mr. Scott." "They're giving you fifteen days to makeup the homework you missed," he says. "If you need help, let us know. If you feel you need a tutor at any point, just tell us, okay?" "I understand, sir." I grab a couple of pancakes and set them on my plate, then start eating. These are better than any I've ever had before. I like them. I could probably add that I get to eat delicious food every day to my list, but I don't think David would like that. When it's time for me to leave for school, I start to get nervous. Really, really nervous. I go up to the room to grab my backpack, and freak out. What if no one likes me there? It's a rich-kid school. I saw it before I ran away, they took me there for a tour. It has several buildings and its own Olympic-sized indoor pool, and there's lots of marble and dark, polished wood and expensive desks and seats and gourmet chefs. Everyone there is rich and stuck-up and they're not going to like me. They're going to hate me, they probably already do, even though they've never ever met me. Rich people hate poor people and orphans. The Scotts only took me in out of pity, they don't really want me. They're going to send me back to the orphanage when they see that I don't fit in at the school. Today's a Monday. I got back last week, but I'm only starting at the school today. I'm scared, and I dive onto the bed and under the blankets, pulling my knees up to my chest and wrapping myself in the blanket like a cocoon so that no one will see me crying. Why do I have to be so weak? [Luke] I wake up hard as a rock and in serious need of a pee, so I get up and go to my bathroom to relieve myself. That taken care of, I start to leave my bathroom, stopping when I catch my reflection in the mirror. I fix my light brown hair so my bedhead's gone, then smile at myself. I am so glad I was allowed to use invisible braces to fix my teeth. They're so white, and they're perfect, just like my body. I walk into my room and grab a pair of shorts, then make my way to the workout room and lift some weights for a little while. I have a naturally fit body, but it doesn't hurt to tone these muscles a little bit more. After I work up a sweat, I make my way back up to my room and take a shower, slowly starting to jack off my cut, three-inch tool that hasn't gone down since I woke up. Of course it hasn't. Today is the day that Xander's supposed to return after being sick, and just thinking about him makes me hard. I smile to myself when I think about seeing him at school. I don't believe for one moment that he was sick. He's so shy, he's probably been having a hard time getting out of the house. I love that sexy boy, and he's going to be mine, whether he knows it or not. I know he's attracted to me, I can see it on his face every time he looks my way. I know we started off on the wrong foot, for whatever reason, and that he likes Finn, but I also know that Finn slapped him, and Xander no longer likes him. By the end of today, I will have talked Xander into hanging out with me on Saturday, and when he does, I'll seduce him. By the time he leaves, he'll be mine. Picturing what hides underneath those clothes, everything left to my imagination, I climax quickly, shooting a couple of small, weak loads against my stomach. Instead of just rinsing it off, I wipe it off my stomach, the reason I aimed it there, and lick it off my hands. A little salty. I can't wait for it to be full cum, not just the kind we make in the beginning of puberty. I also plan on tasting Xander's by the end of us hanging out on Saturday. I finish my shower and dry off, flicking my towel around my neck as I leave my bathroom. Just as I do, my computer pops up with a Skype call. I answer it to find my near-identical fraternal twin brother Greyson on the other side. I have two brothers. One's an older brother from Mom's first husband, who she divorced before marrying my father, and the second with her husband, and that's Greyson, my fraternal twin brother, though she divorced Dad when we were little. She looks committed this time, and in plenty of love. Left off on bad terms with her first husband, who she gave custody of her first son to, and on good terms with Dad, who has custody of Greyson. "Good morning, Greyson," I greet him with a smile. "What brings this early-morning Skype call? Want to admire your totally sexy brother who's way fitter than you'll ever be?" "You wish," he snorts, interrupting me. "I heard from a certain friend that you can't stop talking about someone who's going to be starting school with you today. And put on some clothes, you're naked and getting hard." "So his name's Xander!" I throw myself into my chair, ignoring his comment about me being naked. He can deal with it, he's just jealous of my looks. "He's got brown hair and these amazing blue-gray eyes that are, like a perfect blend of the two, but also have this little touch of green in them, and they're so amazing and look like jewels. He's an orphan, and the Scotts adopted him over the summer, and he's supposedly been sick since the school year started, but I think he's really just been nervous about school because he's used to the orphanage and hasn't been to a school for civilized people before, just public schools, and is intimidated by our money, and his eyebrows are this super super blond color, which I think is really weird but looks totally sexy on him, and he should just get over himself and open up and date me, because why not? So while he's at school today, I'm setting up a date for us on Saturday, and I'm totally gonna lay him while we're hanging, but he's gotta loosen up, no one's going to like a wimp like that, but he's so freaking cute, Greyson! You should totally see him! I-" "Should probably stop now," Greyson laughs. "Go get dressed, before you forget and end up late for school." I get up and start getting dressed. I don't care if my outfit isn't perfectly picked, because whatever I wear is perfect. We talk some more, though Greyson keeps interrupting me, and I find it annoying. He's just like everyone but Xander and Parker, the only people who never interrupt me, but in no time, I can finally end the call, telling him I need to go eat breakfast. I do, then brush my teeth. Twenty minutes after the Skype call is over, I'm at school, waiting out front with Parker for Xander to show up. He still hasn't shown up when the first bell rings, so we head to class. Xander and I have the same homeroom teacher, and he doesn't show up to class. Probably got nerves again today. I'd really like for him to be here, I have to hang out with my asshole of an older brother after school, and I'd really like to have the date set up before then, to at least go into this parent-mandated session that I really don't want to be in (who are they kidding? We're never going to to get along). At the end of the day, I leave school to find my brother leaning against his beatup old pickup truck, which looks out of place among all the cars here, but I know he likes it because he can use the bed of it for sex outside of town. Or in town. I get into the passenger seat, and when he gets in, I speak up. "I need to go somewhere." "I don't care," he starts his truck. "We're required to hang out, but I'm not required to take you where you want to go. I'm the one with the vehicle. We go where I want. Understand that." "Understand this," I grab his hand when he goes to turn on his radio with the intent of blasting rock music, like he always does. He glares at me in the silence of the truck. "We're going to where I want to go, or I get out of this truck, and when I'm asked why, I'll tell Mom that you kicked me out again." Last time, he really did kick me out, and he got into huge trouble with Mom and his dad. Unfortunately for him, he's been in trouble a few times, and so his dad will believe me if I lie, and he hates that. He asks me where I want to go, and I direct him to the Scotts' house. We don't even get to ask to see Xander before we do. He's approaching the gate from the other side, sticking to the other side of the road with his gaze fixed on the truck, a slight frown on his face. Yeah, he definitely doesn't look sick. "Hey, Xander!" I bounce out of the truck, my brother getting out as well. As soon as Xander sees my brother, he freaks out. I mean literally freaks out. He starts screaming, then drops to the ground, curling up into a ball and holding his head between his knees. "I'M STORRY!" He yells. "I DIDN'T TELL! PLEASE DON'T HURT ME! DON'T RAPE ME! I DIDN'T TELL! I'M SORRY!" He keeps yelling, but all I can focus on is what he said. 'don't rape me'. Not 'don't beat me', like I hear he's fond of yelling when he thinks he's in trouble, but 'don't rape me'. I know that Kevin has a thing for younger boys, and I remember that his dad took in a foster kid some years ago, one who ran away after. I'd heard rumors that Xander was a chronic runaway, so it's possible he had run away back then, too.. "What is he talking about?" I turn to my brother, feeling anger rising in me. He shakes his head, shrugging, as if he doesn't know, but I can see in his eyes that he knows what Xander's screaming about. "What the fuck did you do to Xander, Kevin?" [Finn] Xander ended up not going to school today, according to Karma. We didn't go on our morning routine, though I heard he went for the run himself and exercised by himself. I didn't think he'd continue it at all, since I was the one who introduced him to it, and then hurt him. According to Karma, Xander had gone upstairs to grab his backpack when it was time to go to school, and they found him shaking and crying under his blanket, curled up in the fetal position. Nerves, most likely. He was probably freaking out about what everyone at the school was going to think of him. He's been gone for almost three weeks, and he's an orphan, and they're all rich kids. It's only natural he'd feel nervous, and with Xander, I didn't have a doubt in my mind that something like this would happen. At least he got to escape Luke and his annoying mouth. That kid just never shuts up, and he kept popping over, trying to see how Xander was doing. I don't think he thought for one moment Xander was actually sick. Especially since I dug up the fact that he has an older brother, and that older brother is the Kevin from Xander's journals. Kevin's probably been putting him up to befriending Xander. After school lets out, the Student Council meets for a few minutes, then Karma goes her way to hang out with friends, and I head over to our godparents' house, to see how Xander's doing. When I get there, I'm not prepared for the sight that awaits me. A couple of police cars are at the gate to their drive, lights on. Xander's curled up on the ground. His social worker's present as well, trying to calm the hysterical kid down. Several security guards are separating them from others. Mrs. Scott's also trying to calm Xander down, but he's kicking and screaming whenever she tries to touch him, and she looks offended and upset, probably feeling like a failure again, since Xander won't let her comfort him. Back turned to Xander is Luke, who's glaring at his older brother, who's being pushed into a cop car, cuffs on his back. I send Karma a quick message. Me (to Karma): Get over to the Scotts'. Now. Karma: Why? Me (to Karma): You're going to be called soon enough. Just get over here. She doesn't respond, and I know she's on her way. If I tell her she's going to be called after telling her to go somewhere, she always receives a call from our parents asking her to come there. It's always for something important. "What's going on?" I approach, intending to go to Xander, but get stopped by an officer. How did Luke end up here with his brother? And how did anyone end up finding out that Xander's been raped by him? They had to have, that's the only way they'd be arresting Kevin. "Go home, son," the officer says to me. "Those are my godparents," I say. "Aunt Linda!" She looks over at me, then tells the officer to let me in. I walk over to her and ask her what's going on. "Xander snuck out for a walk," she says. "Well, he left a note saying he was going for a walk to calm down. He ran into Luke and Kevin, and when he saw Kevin, he started freaking out, and we can't calm him down." "He was begging Kevin not to rape him," Luke's suddenly by me. "Saying that he didn't tell anyone. Xander's seriously freaked out by it. I asked them to get Kevin's ass in a car so he'd at least be mostly out of sight of Xander. Hopefully, they'll get him out of here soon, so Xander can calm down. It's not right, him freaking out like this. I always hated him, and now I want to kill him. He's lucky I called the police instead." So Luke called the police after Xander started begging not to be raped. Did he have any actual proof, or did they just arrest him because of that? "Unfortunately," Mrs. Scott says. "The case probably won't go anywhere, and he'll probably try suing us for a false arrest. Xander just panicked, for some reason." "Yeah," Luke says. "Kevin claimed to not rape him, but-" "He lied," I say, and everyone looks at me. Well, everyone except Xander, who's still screaming and begging not to be beaten. "He's raped Xander before, and not once, either." "What are you talking about?" The officer asks me, and I take a deep breath. "Xander," I say. "Has these journals. He's recorded being raped in them a number of times. One of them gives the name 'Kevin' has his foster-brother for one of his rapists, and he's only had one 'Kevin' as a foster-brother, and that's Kevin Jackson, the same Kevin you just threw into that car. Before you ask, no, I don't know where his journals are. After he found out I knew where they were, he moved them, and all attempts to track him to them have failed. One thing he knows how to do without fail is lose a tail, and a tracker isn't working anymore, he always searches before leaving." There was one designed as a pin that I stuck to his runbag, and when it stopped working, I stopped by to find it sitting in his trash, smashed. Not the pin, but the bug. The pin was scratched up and in the trash, too. Xander's not as stupid as he thinks he is. "Someone who knows of a crime," the officer begins. "And doesn't report it-" "Someone who finds out," I say. "By basically stalking someone and breaching their privacy, as well as making copies of keys to pick locks to be able to open the chest the journals are contained within might not want to share that information. Besides, Xander made me swear that I wouldn't tell." That's not a lie, which means Xander won't be stuck in a spot if asked. The first time we did the morning run, the day after I left him the other journals, he made me promise not to. He was panicking, probably scared of what would happen if someone found out. He's probably scared of one of his past rapists coming back and hurting him. "Xander," Karma's suddenly here, kneeling down beside him. "Get your ass up now. He can't hurt you, and he won't hurt you ever again, so stop your whining and get your ass up." "Don't hurt me," Xander whines. Oh, boy...there's going to be so much fun at his therapy appointment on Thursday. He's never actually talked in them before, just sits there and stares at his lap, from what I've heard. His shrink's goings to try to get him to open up about the rapes, and I've got a feeling that just trying to suggest it, even without flat-out saying it, will set him off. [Luke] As soon as Karma goes off on him for even thinking that any of us would hurt him, Xander slowly gets up, and looks at me nervously. "I swear," I hold my hands up. "I had no clue, Xander. I wanna be your friend just 'cause you seem cool. If you're willing to take a risk and see if I'm really different from my brother, we can hang out this weekend. My place, so that if you decide you don't like me, your room's untouched by my presence. We wouldn't be alone, if you don't want that. I can invite Parker over, and someone else, too, if you want. If you don't want to go my place, then we could go to the mall or something." "No-" Xander starts to say something. "I think that's a good idea," his social worker interrupts him, and Xander looks at him, frightened. "Luke is clearly furious with his brother over what was done to you, and from the way he reacted, he's protective of you. That's after you told him you're not attracted to him, too. I think you should give him a chance, Xander." Xander's whole resistance to hanging out with me deflates as soon as his social worker speaks up, and he reluctantly agrees to hang out with me on Saturday. Eventually, I'm able to go home, and as soon as I do, I'm texting Parker. Me (to Parker): Found out what happened to Xander showing up at school today! Parker: I asked Jenna out. We're going on a date Saturday. Me (to Parker): He got super-anxious about going to school with us and freaked out this morning, apparently. Me (to Parker): Also, Xander's apparently been raped, that's why he's so weird. I didn't catch everything, but I heard that he's been raped a lot. Finn apparently knew it, but Xander made him swear to keep it a secret because he was scared. Also, it turns out that my brother was one of his rapists. Asshole's been arrested. Parker: Hopefully that leads to others getting arrested, since you sound like there's more. Me (to Parker): Yeah, but Finn won't say who, and no one expects Xander to speak up, so they're doubtful unless Kevin admits to it, which probably won't happen. But at least one ass is gone. Me (to Parker): Wait. You've got a date with Jenna? Parker: LOL! Took you long enough! I wish, she's way outta my league. I just knew you were gonna tell me anyway. Xander: Wat tyem ar yu wenting tu hange owt on saterday? Me (to Xander): Huh? Xander: Wat tyem ar yu wenting tu hange owt on saterday? Me (to Xander): Your spelling is horrible. How about four in the afternoon? Me (to Parker): Xander's got shit spelling. He just sent me a text, and I couldn't understand it at first. At least he's sexy. Parker: Go jack off. Me (to Parker): Will do! I drop my phone on my bed, strip off my clothes, and admire myself in the mirror. I'm well-built for someone almost thirteen, thanks to working out like I do. I start jacking off as I think about Saturday, sitting on my bed to watch myself. Saturday, while we're hanging out here, I'm going to get him naked. Once he's naked, I'm going to talk him into jacking off. He wants to jack off with me, he just doesn't know he does. I'm about to climax when my phone goes off, startling me and breaking my concentration. "Dammit," I look at my phone. "What do you want, Xander? That was a good jack, and you ruined it." Xander: Siks tu ate. Eeting at the howse. Dont trust yu. "You will," I smile after translating his text. "I know you like me, and I really want to be your boyfriend. You're sexy, so you're forgiven for interrupting me. Please don't freak out on me on Saturday." It's only after I shoot my load onto my chest and stomach that I realize something. I was picturing Xander the entire time, with his blue-gray eyes that have the perfect touch of green to them, his brown hair and super-blond eyebrows and eyelashes, and I didn't even realize it. When Xander got up earlier, he messed with his hair a little bit, probably trying to fix the tangled mess he's got, and I noticed his roots. They're the same blond as his eyebrows. He's not a natural brunette, he's a natural blond, and it's super blond, too. Why does he dye his hair? ~~END OF CHAPTER NINE~~ Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoyed it! The three nominees for the next story to start getting uploaded, as they'll make an appearance at one point or another in Xander's life, are: Zack, the first King I ever wrote, whose story starts off two years before NLXK, and moves to a new town after his father and brother were killed in car accident he survived. Incredibly shy, and is 'pestered' by a popular kid who wants to be his friend. Age at beginning: fourteen. Matt, the fourth King and whose story starts a year before NLXK, has plenty of social anxiety and self-doubt, keeping to himself as he's raised by his older brother. When a new kid moves to town, Matt's forced to face his fears. Age at beginning: eleven and a half. Benj, the ninth King and whose story starts around the same time as NLXK, is an orphan taken into a new home with his middle twin, after being separated years before from their youngest brother. Shortly after moving in, he and his brother discover that the older boys manipulate and use and humiliate the younger boys. Age at beginning: twelve, almost thirteen. Feedback is always appreciated, and I try to reply to every email! Comments, questions, and suggestions are always welcome, especially as I'm always changing events and adding things on, and I can use ideas for both this story and the others. Hope you enjoyed this, and stay tuned for Chapter Nine!
