Symbiota Sapiens - 16. Chapter 16

No...that can't be right. This was before.

But the way she pressed her body against me, her hips moving so eagerly, sliding up and down my
length. That's what she wanted, right? Or without the young forever t. And then the runner came...

And there he is, I'm busy running my tongue up the side of her throat but I feel the shift in balance
as his hard body leans into us. I feel the heat coming from his skin and his hands brush against
me, too, as he reaches around to explore her stomach and breasts.

I look up and oddly it's Julian there. The young version, staring back at me intensely, as he perversely
grinds his pelvis - not hard at this age - into the girls ass. Locking eyes with me. And for some reason
I can't look anywhere but into eyes that are wise beyond the youthful face.

"She's just a girl, Jer. She doesn't mean anything, does she? Just a hole to fuck. Look at her face."

With his permission I am able to look at her face but...it's not there. Nothing. No matter how I try
I can't see her face.

"What is this? What did you do to her?" I demand.

"Me? This is your dream. I'm disconnected from you right now, remember?"

"Oh. You." It's the Kid, invading my dreams.

"This is all you. All your memory. Amazing detail, huh. Right down to the texture of skin. But you
don't remember her face do you? Yeah. Like I said. Just a hole to fuck."

"I would have remembered. Stuff happened." I protested.

"Oh yeah. This."

Suddenly Julian was growing, aging before my eyes until he was as he is now. Eighteen. Strong,
confident.

Rock hard, griding into my hand. And now he's making no pretense at pawing the woman between
us. Reaching around to slide his hands up the sides of my torso. Pulling me towards him, making
me grind into the girl.

"You want the hole, don't you? You've just got to have a stupid hole to fuck! So fine, here's your hole
you bastard! But don't you forget it's me you're doing it with! I'm the one touching you, kissing you,
loving you!"

The girls clothes disappeared and at Julian's urging I was quickly sliding between her legs, pushing
into the wet warmth between them while Julian leant forward to invade my mouth with his tongue.

Then suddenly it changed. The faceless girl suddenly surged upwards, knocking Julian and me both
away from her as her wrathful features suddenly surfaced from the fuzzy gloom that had obscured it.

I stepped towards Julian to protect him, but then she was Elena, radiating power and anger as she
raised one hand, and an unseen force blocked me from reaching him.

"YOU were to PUT HIM ASIDE! HOW DARE YOU DEFY your DUTY! You would throw away the fate
of the world FOR A MORTAL!?" She bellowed, her telepathic blast pounding into my head with spikes
of pain.

"I never asked for your damn duty!" I screamed back at her, and was knocked over by a blast of
energy.

"YOU WERE PRIVELEGED TO RECEIVE THE GIFT. THE FIRST SUCH GIFT IN DECADES. THEREline IS A PRICE. IT IS HIM."

Julian was raised into the air as if by an invisible hand on his neck, struggling weakly.

"PATHETIC!"

"Leave him alone!" I begged. "Please. I love him! I don't care if he's mortal, he's my brother and I love him!"

"HOW STUPID OF YOU TO INVOLVE HIM IN THIS, THEN." Elena lectured. "DID YOU THINK HE WOULDline SURVIVE THIS GAME AS HE IS? LOOK, HE IS ALREADY A CASUALTY."

And then she was suddenly gone and I was left sprawled on the floor as Julian's clothes were suddenly torn
from him and he looked down at me in utter terror.

"Jeremey, something's happening inside me! Please, do something! I can feel something happening!"

I jumped to my feet and lunged towards him but he was out of my reach.

And then a long, metallic tentacle came from nowhere and started creeping around his ankle and up his bare
leg.

"No, Jeremey make him stop! Make him stop!"

"I can't!" I screamed back, lunging for the tentacle but it kept writhing out of my reach as it continued to climb
up Julian. I watched in horror as it curled around his waist and Julian cried out as it squeezed him harshly.

"Fight it Julian! There's got to be a way to make it stop!"

"I can't! It's too strong!" He screamed back and then I saw his eyes go wide as the tip of the horrid thing slid
insinuatingly into the crack of his butt. He shook his head and opened his mouth in a soundless 'No' and then
he was screaming as it penetrated him from behind.

My 'No' was not soundless. I raged incoherently as I lunged at the tentacle, swinging my arms wildly trying to
catch it as it swayed around my clumsy assaults. Above me Julian sobbed and writhed as the tentacle raped
him and stole his innocence, plundering his body.

"LEAVE HIM ALONE YOU SICK FUCK! LEAVE HIM ALONE IT'S ME YOU WANT!" I raged and somehow my
fist made contact with the tentacle. It shuddered, and I pounded it again, grabbing on with my other hand and
slamming into it again and again, bashing my head against it, tearing at it with my fingers and teeth and suddenly
Julian fell on top of me and the tentacle disappeared.

I wrapped my whole body around Julian protectively, cuddling him as his shoulder shook with silent wracking pain.
I held him tight, determined never to have him out of my reach again and used my hands and lips to sooth him
as best I could.

Julian cried quietly and then was silent, looking up at me with glittering eyes. I tried to smile at him.

"Don't go away Jer."

"I shouldn't have gotten you into all this."

"I'm involved. Since I was born. I'm your brother. And I love you."

"I know."

Julian looked up at me sadly.

"I love you too."

His lip trembled, and his hand crept around the back of my neck to bury fingers in my hair.

I leaned forward and placed a sweet kiss on his lips.

"I do love you."

"Then...you'll have to make sacrifices." He whispered back harshly.

I recoiled and saw an evil smile crossing his face. Not like Julian at all. More like...who?

"What?"

This time he spoke and I recognized the voice as the godfather figure.

"I have him now. He's mine. Now you'll have to give me what I want."

"No!"

"Suit yourself."

Julian pushed me away roughly, staggering to his feet. I watched as he jerkily walked away from me like
a badly controlled puppet.

"Let me know if you ever want to see him again."

"NO!" I got to my feet and ran towards him. I tackled him but he seemed somehow smaller as I brought him
to the ground. I looked down. It was the younger version of Julian again.

"You should have loved him when you had the chance. You could have chosen him." The AI said sadly.

"What?"

"Too late now. He's gone. I tried to help."

"Help? What are you on about you fucking computer! Where's Julian?"

i0 ::He's in the other room. Are you okay?::

Huh?

My eyes sprang open and the covers dropped to my lap as I sat up in the bed.

::You were dreaming. Apently your incapacitation is finished now.:: The AI informed me.

"Julian?" I called out. Julian's head appeared through the bathroom doorway.

"Jeremey? Cool you're awake. How was it?"

"I had weird dreams." I looked at my hands in my lap. They were shaking.

"Oh. You mean you slept that whole time?" Julian looked both disappointed and relieved.

"Not the whole time. Just...i afteri0 . i Youi0 know."

"After...OH!" Julian turned red and disappeared back into the bathroom.

"Julian?" I called uncertainly.

"Yeah, Jer?"

"Um. About yesterday."

There was a cessation of all movement in the bathroom, but not a word in response.

"Uh. I don't know how to. I mean. Shit."

I jumped out of the bed and walked to the bathroom. Julian was standing there in a towel,
holding onto the edges of the sink with a white-knuckled death grip. His eyes remained
closed as he waited for what I'd say.

I stepped forward and cupped his cheeks with my hands. He opened his eyes in surprise
at the sudden contact, saw my face and quickly squeezed them shut again. I brought
my thumb around to caress the side of his face and saw a tear leak from under one eyelid.

"Julian."

He started shaking and I leaned forward to press my lips against first one, then the other
closed eye.

"Shhh. It's okay bro. I do love you. I'm not sure about...about...i thati0 way. But...there's i somethingi0 ,
okay? And not just being your big bro. I think we're past that at least."

He opened his eyes and his mouth curved into a smile.

"You mean...brothers don't usually sleep together? Or...um...give each other blowjobs?"

"Well...i Ii0 sure as hell never did that with any brother besides you." I informed him.

"Better not have." He grinned cockily at me.

"So. Look. I'm really just not sure about that other stuff right now. What you did last night,
well...it was amazing. And...confusing. And...I just don't know. I guess I've been confused
about you for a while now. So...let's just...give it time?"

"We've got all the time in the world, Jer" he said quietly. "I've waited...a long time just for...for
i anythingi0 from you. I never dreamed I'd actually get it. I think I can wait some more."

"Thanks. Just. I think now I want to...to..." I stopped, looking at his soft pink mouth. He didn't
move a muscle. I leaned forward imperceptibly and his eyes sank closed. I pressed my lips
to his.

Soft.

I let our lips rub against each other for a moment, enjoying the sensation. I could feel his soft
breath against my face.

"Julian?" I didn't really know if I should...

But of course. Julian answered my unspoken question by tipping his head back to give me access,
pushing forward to restore the contact.

I went with it. Tried nibbling his upper lip for a while, sucked the tender bit of flesh between my teeth
and tugged it a bit.

"Mmm. Yes." He moaned against my mouth and his arms wound around my neck. I suddenly
realized I was naked and he was nearly naked as I wrapped my arms around him and chewed
on his lips. The feeling of him against me was all hard angles and tight muscles, coiled and
powerful and strangely vulnerable and yielding as I squeezed him gently. His lips eager and
aggressive as he offered them up and nibbled at my own in turn.

I broke the contact with a gasp, stepping hurriedly back from him to catch my breath.

"Wow." I breathed hoarsely.

"Wow." Echoed from the doorway. Rom was standing there, his mouth gaping open as he ogled
us both.

I suddenly became aware of two facts. I was naked, and my hardon was sticking out rudely from
my body.

"Could you give us a minute, Rom? i Rom?i0 " Julian asked, sounding annoyed.

"What?" Rom jumped as if struck. "Oh! Yeah. Sorry." He backed out of the doorway, a dazed
look on his face.

"He's trouble." I glared at where he'd been.

"Rom? He's fine."

"I don't like him looking at you. And, i helli0 , I certainly don't like him touching you! I heard what he
tried last night!" I turned towards the door to find Rom and explain what I'd thought of that when
Julian grabbed my arm.

"Uh, Jer."

"What?" I swung around, and my erection hit the side of the sink cabinet. Julian looked down
meaningfully. I looked at the offending member.

"You're naked, remember?"

"Oh. Yeah."

"And hard."

"Yeah." I looked at him nervously.

"Well, I won't push my luck." He said, giving me a cute grin. "I'm glad you liked it though. I've
been wanting to do that with you since I knew what kissing was."
