Location: Campsite

Φ With joy in their hearts and defended by the night, the members of the campsite return to their area filled with joy and happiness from the events that have just taken place, ready to sleep away the rest of their day.

Some say, “It has been a long time since we have had fun like that.”

Others say, “But now we have to go back to hell tomorrow.”

“Still we should be thankful to Charles for helping us get today off.”

“I know, I know but I am still stressed.”

“All we can do is simply work and then sleep off the pain until our great escape.”

As most of them have experienced great amounts of excitement today they plan to simply sleep the rest of the day away. But one of them is teeming with excitement as the most interesting part of his day is about to begin. Nero walks with everyone with a giant smile on his face.

It is finally time! If everything goes as planned tonight will be the night I become a man.

You see after the night Nero helped deliver little baby Jupio, Sandra sat him down and explained everything about women a babies he didn’t know before. Which completely fried his brain at the time.

But now it is different, he is full of excitement and vigour, truly a young man. Running towards his hut, he says, “Now it is time for me to become a man!”

“Hello Nero,” He hears as he runs inside the hut.

Looking down, he sees Charles hugging Mariana. So with a blank and murderous stare, he asks, “Hey Charles what are you doing?”

“I just came to finally sleep with all of you guys.”

I laugh, then I grab Charles and run both of us out of the hut. Then I say, “Bye Charles,” And then start to walk myself back to my wife.

As I walk I notice Charles walking behind me, so I turn around, and say, “What are you doing!?”

“Coming to sleep with both my mother and father.”

“DIDN’T SANDRA TELL YOU WE CAN’T DO THAT ANYMORE!”

“No she didn’t,” Charles says lying with the greatest of ease.

“DON’T LIE TO ME!”

Charles puffs, up his cheeks, then says, “I refuse.”

Inside me are two conflicting forces, one that wants to grab his inflated cheeks, and another that wants to snap his neck.

But in the end, inside Nero, the side that wants to snap Charles's neck wins and its rage with a sprinkle of youthful lust makes him say, “I don’t care, so scram or I will bury you.”

Hearing these words, from Nero causes Charles to fall to the ground, and start to cry. But Nero who has been completely devoured by his lust, just shakes his shoulder and moves towards his hut.

But as he tries to walk he notices something is dragging him down, and turning around he sees that Charles is holding on to his leg. So he continues walking while dragging Charles.

In response, Charles tightens his grip and makes Nero scream, “OWWW.”

“That’s what you deserve.”

“Let go of me you brat.”

“No.”

“I said let go!”

As I try to break free Charles lets go which makes me fall right into the ground. Looking back at Charles, I see he is standing up, and then I see him say, “If you’re going to be mean, I will simply go stay with Dónal for the rest of my life.”

Hearing this the part of Nero that is overprotective of Charles battles back against the lust and dominates his body for a moment. “No don’t do that, you idiot.”

“But you said I should go.”

“Just somewhere safe, like Edwards hut.”

“No. Everyone there smells really bad, unlike Mariana.”

Putting my hand on Charles's shoulder, I say, “Wait what does she smell like? Is it nice? How does she feel? DAMN YOU CHARLES I SHOULD BE ENJOYING SLEEPING BESIDE HER RIGHT NOW!”

Confused, Charles says, “That’s what I want to do, all three of us.”

“You see that’s the problem it can’t be all three of us!”

“WHY?”

“Because I said so.”

“Ok then, I am going to Dónal!”

“NO!”

Mariana appearing in the middle of the two boys says, “Calm down you fools, I know I am an angel but you don’t have to fight over me!”

Charles with a confused expression, says, “Aren’t angels supposed to be graceful?”

Hitting Charles on top of his head, Mariana says, “Charles, add that to the list of things never to say to a woman. As number one hundred and forty-one.”

“Ok.”

Smiling, I say, “Mariana please tell Charles that we need to be left alone tonight.”

Suddenly Mariana starts freaking out, then grabs Charles and runs to the hut while saying, “Sleep with us tonight Charles.”

Standing with a face of shock and disappointment I look at them and then say, “GODDAMMIT!”

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Laying with my back against the little thatch bed, I hear Mariana to my right whisper, “Are you ok Nero, you look red.”

“Ye-yes I am do-o-o-o-oing f-f-f-f-f-fine,” I say with my embarrassment and lust dominating my body.

Charles to my right, between me and Mariana says, “Are you sure?”

With all my embarrassment and lust vanishing, I say, “Yep.”

“I see,” Charles says while smiling.

Charles grabs both my arm, and the Marianas, and turning left, he says, “Mother good night.”

“I am not you’re mother.”

Mariana says, “I will be your mother if you want one.”

Turning right, Charles says, “Father good night.”

“Father!? I assure you no man could ever become the greatness that is Mariana Ángela Girasol Ramos Animus.”

“Animus,” I say entranced.

“What does it make you feel good hearing my new name,” Mariana says with a smile.

“Yes.”

Charles holding the both of us, tighter says, “Of course it would because we are the Animus family. So from here on out we will never be apart.”

Seeing Charles and Mariana, I say, “You’re right about that. Now let us go to sleep.”

Charles says, “He has accepted it.”

Mariana then responds, “Nero is everchanging, so it is not a surprise.”

“Hey don’t insult me. Now good night.”

“Good night,” They both say back.

-Break-

During the night all three of them sleep soundly together like angels, well they would if not for the fact that Nero can’t close his eyes and go to sleep.

I CAN’T SLEEP! No matter how much I try to close my eyes, I am still too excited, and sleeping so close to Mariana is bad for me.

Her face, her hair, her lips. I want to kiss them again. Wait, we are married maybe I could get away with going for it.

NO! Almost all of the joy I get from kissing her is the expressions she makes, without those I might as well be kissing a wall. A soft beautiful seductive wall.

Slapping myself, I say, “Bad Nero. A wall is still a wall no matter how heavenly it may look.”

What I need to do is continue to lie down and calm myself. BUT I CAN’T! I have been hyping myself up all day for this and now it is ruined, and that kiss today.

If heaven exists I am sure it was that kiss. I was just touching her lips but then she put her tongue in my mouth and I did the same back and then it was like I felt my mind melt. I almost collapsed a few times.

Looking towards the lower parts of my body, I notice that I have just gotten more excited. No more thinking about such a topic only about peace and quiet, and it is not like I could do anything with the grip Charles has on my arm anyways.

Taking a deep breath in and out, I lay perfectly still and closed my eyes. Let all of the lust and frustration flow out with each breath. I feel it shrink as it all flows out of my body, but then I hear a soft voice say, “Nero are you awake.”

Opening my eyes, I see Mariana hovering over my body, so I close my eyes and say, “Have I become so lustful that I am now even imagining her over me.”

Feeling an impact right in my stomach, I hear her say, “I am right here idiot.”

Opening my eyes and becoming erratic, I try to say a bunch of things but eventually just ask, “How are you even over here, Charles grip while he sleeps is unbreakable.”

Surprised she brings her hand toward him, and says, “If you touch him here he releases he grip.”

After putting two of her fingers on the left side of his neck, Charles completely releases his grip on my arm. Shaking my arm, I say, “I am finally free. If I had known this was possible I wouldn’t have let him break my arm so much over all these years.”

With a proud expression, she says, “Well you should thank me.”

“Thank you very much, my wife.”

Hearing the word wife, both Mariana and Nero start to laugh creepily.

Nero snapping out of it, he says, “But why are you up, Mariana?”

She acts shyly in front of me, then after a moment she cutely says, “Do you want to take a walk outside.”

The expression she makes, and the words that she says make my heart beat so fast I am going to die. With a disgusting smile, I say, “Let’s go then.”

-Break-

As the two walk around the campsite, they both jitter with a blend of nervousness and anticipation. Nero stopping, says, “So Mariana what did you call me out here for.”

Mariana says, “I, well I, well I want to talk about Charles.”

Nero drops to his fours in sadness, then says, “I should have not gotten my hopes up like a fool.”

Mariana starts to freak out, then says, “DON'T BE SAD, I HAVE MORE TO TALK ABOUT!”

“REALLY!” Nero says getting real close to her face.

Pushing him back, she says, “We have to talk about Charles first.”

“So what about him.”

Bowing, she says, “I just want to apologize for standing with him.”

“No need to do that, I probably stressed you out.”

“No, it wasn’t that. it is just that earlier he told me he wanted to stay with all three of us for one last time.”

“Huh, one last time?”

Mariana then tells me what he said.

Φ “You and Nero will be married soon, so I will have to give you two a lot of space and when you guys get married and have babies, I can’t be bothering you.”

“Who said anything about babies Charles, don’t you think you’re getting ahead of yourself there,” I say with my body about to melt.

“Still, I would like to stay with the both of you at least once before I have to leave the both of you to your lonesome.”

Φ Surprized, I say, “I didn’t know he felt that way.”

Laughing, Mariana says, “You forget that for as much as you care for him, he cares for you.”

“You’re right about that.” Then with a smile, I say, “Now onto our other business.”

“Hey didn’t you move on too fast?”

“Maybe, but what am I supposed to do, I fulfilled his request, so I don’t see the issue.”

Mariana starts to freak out for the hundredth time today, so I walk up to her and say, “Mariana.”

“YES NERO!”

“Can we.”

“Can we what?”

“Can we hold hands!”

“Hold hands?” She says confused.

“Yep.”

Hitting me in my stomach, she says, “That’s all!”

“What did you expect me to say, you know as well as I do that Charles is still asleep in our room.”

“STILL, why didn’t you just grab my hand.”

“Because all the pain I felt from when I touched you without you’re permission years ago still lingers.”

Kneeling down beside me, she says, “Sorry about that. And just so you know we are married so you can do certain things without asking.”

“So I can kiss you whenever I want.”

“NO! If I get kissed randomly, I will die of a heart attack.”

“Ok but that is more than enough for me,” he says grabbing my hand and interlocking our fingers.

Holding her hand, I giggle and say, “I am holding my wife’s hand.”

She giggles as well, then says, “Well you better get used to it, since this hand will always be here, and I expect the same.”

“So is there anything you would like to ask from me.”

Mariana looks as if she is thinking, then her face turns red and she looks around, then says, “Could we kiss again?”

“Yes, yes, I absolutely. Try and stop me.” I say bringing my face closer.

We both kiss, until we hear someone say, “Charles!”

This instantly causes us to pull back in embarrassment, and then looking at the source of the voice we see Statilia up and walking.

“You’re awake!?”

“I just got up, and I went to go visit Sandra who informed me of some things.” As she moves over to us, she asks, “Where is the new couple just smooching!?”

“YES,” I say with vigour.

“Nero!” Mariana says back to me, pushing her hands against my face.

Bowing, Statilia says, “Sorry to interrupt you too, but if you could tell me where that bastard Charles is it would please me.”

“Why?”

“Because I just learnt, he was the reason the Beastkin got so hostile and attacked me, so I want revenge.”

“I see well he is in our hut.”

“Nero!” Mariana says shocked.

“Also his body is like iron, but the moment he wakes up he relaxes, so you can strike him then. If you want to stay in our hut until he wakes you can.”

“Thank you,” Statilia says while walking away.

“Hey Nero, wasn’t that kind of mean.”

“Not at all but ignoring that. Now that Statilia is in our hut, we can’t sleep there so we have no other option but to go into her hut, which should be completely empty.”

Mariana pauses for a moment, then says, “I know what you’re up to, and just to let you know all we are going to do is sleep.”

Disheartened, I say, “I know, but at least I could’ve hoped.”

Grabbing my hand, she says, “Now let’s go.”

-Break-

Opening her eyes with her clothes off, Mariana turns her head left where she sees Nero in the same state, and then looks up at the top of the hut and says, “WHAT DID I DO LAST NIGHT!”

“Don’t worry it was amazing.”

“You’re awake.”

“I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t allow my mind to forget such an experience.”

“AHHHHHHHH!”

Getting up, I hug Mariana and then say, “Good morning my wife.”

She says back, “Good morning darling.”

They both giggle as she says this. Then from outside they hear a large shout.

“I guess Statilia just gave Charles his punishment.”

“Ehh, I hope he is ok.”

“Well let’s go look at him,” I say standing up, and reaching out her hand.

Grabbing it, Mariana says, “You got it, darling.”

For the two that moment was precious like many others they had experienced, and they continued to make more special memories together with everyone on the campsite.

And that took them till the day of their plan.
