DREAMING OF THE OLD TIMES
when everything seemed sane

He didn't know the reason for coming here, but he wanted to explore the area outside of the campus, his feet sunk in the wet sand below he dared not go to deep into the water of the lake for he didn't know how to swim. But it would not stop him from having his lonely fun. From his pocket his phone deeped and vibrated he took it from his pocket and opened it to see the text. His friend Ida had texted him from way back home in Britian 'hey xolek texting because i havent talked to you in ages' he frowned, they had been friends for quite some time. But they'd grown apart she'd become popular while he'd become the 'shy kid' and once and awhile the 'trouble maker' or 'class clown'. He deleted his message and continued to walk the lakes shoreline.

Finally he stopped and looked around noticing a tree and huge rock he walked over and stepped onto it, putting his shoes he had held in his hands on the space beside him. The rock was big enough for at least 4 people if they where his size that is, but today the only one to occupy the rock was Xolek. He wondered if someone would walk by and be upset that he'd taken the rock, but after all it was a free country and he was the first one there, so it was only fair that he'd get the rock until he left.

There was not many people on the beach this early on the Sunday morning, the wind was chilling, but yet Xolek was in short sleeves, the low waves crashed into the rock and lipped his feet, everything was so calm here. He looked up at the sky clouds threatened the later day to be raining, but he'd love walking back in the rain. It would give him another excuse to take a shower for a second time. His mind wandered off thinking about home, his new dorm room that was only his for the moment and everything else that was happening in his life thus far.

CRASHINGTIDESCRASHINGTIDES

Lets say today I was just a wondering bee. Walking around and enjoying nature. But since when was I a nature person? It’s not that I don’t care for the environment and litter and stuff, which I do care about, but it’s just not natural for me to go on random strolls to admire the trees, grass and small animals that inhabit the area in which I now reside. I let out a exhale that was stopped short when I ran into a tree. Let’s just say I wasn’t paying much attention to where I was walking because, again, being a naturist. “How ironic?” Tree huggers, naturist, me embracing a tree right now: is all ironic. I laughed. Really loud too. There wasn’t much humor in the small joke but I couldn’t help it. I’ve been on edge ever since the new students have been pouring and all of a sudden prom coming up? I have most of my outfit made and ready to be sashayed in the grand ballroom.

I regained my balance and continued my walk. I spotted a clearing a little way’s off the path and decided to tread it. My mind buzzed. I thought of Sarafina and Dodger. They were recently engaged and well I was a little jealous. Sarafina and I dated for a week or so and well my powers soon kicked in and she found her one. Being a son of Eros can really suck some times. Being with me ensures you find your one right after our break up or soon after. That doesn’t mean that the next guy/girl is the one it just means very soon you’ll find him or her. She was also pregnant by the guy. “Yep they were destined for each other.” I thought aloud. I also thought about my roommates Semper and Sage. Yes I loved those two and I yes I admit I have/had a small crush on Sage but it kind of died off when I let him go to prom with Anastasia who some how developed a hard crush on Sage in a very short period of time. I’ve been here a little longer and my small crush didn’t surface until recent. I even thought about a new kid. Xolek. It was a unique and different name. But his uniqueness didn’t stop there. The kid was incredibly hot. I mean he had snake bites and the gods know I love snake bites. He also had long black hair, like mines and Sage’s. I smiled like a fool. I couldn’t help it after picturing him in my head.

“Man I can turn like this so soon.” Did I mention I just met him? I found my way, after a long, distance-filled walk, to a lake. It was pretty large and it expanded far enough to make it look endless. I wasn’t much of a swimmer but I did enjoy it from time to time and well no one was around so I quickly shed my clothing leaving nothing but my boxer briefs on. I placed my clothes, in a neat pile, under a small bush so no one decided to toss them into the lake as I was out swimming. I wadded into the cold frigid water knowing my body would soon adjust to the water sooner or later. As I began to warm up I thought about someone coming out and seeing him half naked and- “That would be pretty embarrassing.” I said aloud. What was up with me talking to myself? Ehh oh well. I took a small dive beneath the water and opened my eyes in the murky water. I couldn’t see very far but I could tell where I was heading. I swam, swam and swam. Before I could notice how far I had swam I had to come up for a long, and enjoyable, breath. I sucked in air like I had just woken from a dead sleep. My heart was racing like crazy. I opened my eyes and looked out. I was far, very far from where I started. I turned around and looked towards the shore line. There was someone. Standing there dipping their feet into the water. I couldn’t make out who it was so I paddled over.

When I eventually made it over I figured out I recognized the person: recognized him all too well. It was Xo: standing there with his hair and his hot-fullness. I couldn’t help myself when I gasped the words “ Oh mi Dios! Tan jodidamente caliente!” I covered my mouth with my hands. He heard me, I was quite sure of it. Now all I could do now was smile and wave.

DREAMING OF THE OLD TIMES
when everything seemed sane

He thought about the attempt of swimming in the water, him sinking like a rock for he couldn't swim at all.He frowned for a moment before burst out into a short laughter. He wasn't going to attempt to swim here by himself, now how would that turn out? he had tried a few times to swim but all had happened in horrible disasters one he'd met a lifeguard who'd came out to save him, although it wasn't much of a disaster for the two had later become close friends. He grinned at the thought of Zhenson before totally spacing out again. The water was calm. In the distance birds chirped and a goose hawked.

He stood then wadding a little bit deeper into the water, but this time he didn't dare go above his ankle. He'd heard stories of even drowning in shallow water and he definitely wasn't ready for that. He looked towards the sudden splash but it was just a mother and her child skipping rocks into the water. It amused Xolek and he continued to smile and look in their direction the boy turned to look at him and waved. He had light brown short hair and green eyes with pale skin. He looked little like his mother, maybe more like his father. The mother looked over and frowned at Xolek before moving from her spot and taking her child along to.

It was obvious to Xolek that not many liked him, probably the sad aurora that he had, but some people liked him and gave him a chance, that was a good thing for he was sure he'd go crazy if he didn't have anyone to talk to. The sudden sound of someone speaking startled Xolek he stepped back and tripped looking out into the water, there was Francisco in the water waving at him. instead of getting up from the shallow water he frowned and continued to sit there for he knew he'd be totally soaked either way.

He waved back at Francisco "You can swim?" he said entertained he leaned forward in the cold water from where he sat. He always thought it was cool that someone could swim but he sounded like and idiot when they found out he couldn't. He dug his hands into the muddy sand below the water and let the small tide wash it from his hands. the water wasn't as cold as he had imagined it to be.

I laughed. I laughed really hard. Not the fact that he had fallen but the fact he was trying to play it off by laying in the water. I was about to continue laughing when he asked one of the oddest questions. Can I swim? What does it look like? I wanted to scream, but that would have been rude. Instead of what I was going to and wanted to say, I bit my tongue and said. “Well yeah. I am not the best swimmer out there, like Michael Phelps or anything, but I can swim.” I looked at him. Was he afraid of water? Or did he not know how to swim? “Can you swim?” I asked blankly. It was a little odd asking someone if they could swim. But I did. I felt a little rude about laughing at him, I mean this kid could actually have a psychological problem with water or it’s just the fear of drowning or something.
And that’s when I got an idea. A plan to get him to over his ‘fear’ of whatever he was afraid of. “Would….you like to take a small little swim with me?” I said a little too nervous. Lately my hormones have been working up a weird battle within me. For one I was beginning to get all shaky around people. Way too nervous for normal. I was also feeling a shift within me. Like a power, unwanted power, coming into existence. For some reason I latch onto someone way too early into the relationship. Sarafina, I will not say she was a mistake but she was how to put it, an eye opener? I noticed almost right after our breakup. Well yeah we all know about her infamous reuniting with Dodger and their upcoming child. However after that I noticed my power manifesting within me. I kind of now, fully understood my purpose. To match make pretty much was my life’s destiny.

I swam up to the shore line, short distance to the shore line to sit next to Xolek just in case he didn’t want to swim and I could sit there and talk with him. He seemed like a really cool person to be friends with. I liked that. There were many chill people at Richmond, but there weren’t many people who had an, I don’t know, awesome aura. His presence was just like a very good vibe. I sat beside him. “You don’t mind me sitting here do you?”

He laughed to, not one of those laughs when something was funny but when you where nervous because you'd made a complete fool of yourself. When Fransisco had asked if Xolek could swim he frowned and stopped laughing his nervous laugh "I.. um.. I can't swim.. well other then the doggy paddle" he admitted he wasn't good at making up lies so he didn't try he was no Hermes kid. It felt weird being totally soaked with clothes on. He felt like an idiot a complete fool for falling when Fransisco had decided to pop out of the water. He hesitated when Fransisco asked him if he'd like to swim. Someone was actually asking if he wanted to swim with them, he knew it was weird but he saw it as very kind.

He couldn't just say no now that would seem rude and uncalled for in his books "Well if you don't mind me possible drowning then sure" he tried to make his voice so it sounded funny but he didn't think it was working. He wanted to ask Fransisco a few things like well he didn't know but he seemed like the type of person you'd love to have as a friend, he smiled at Fransisco for it was only polite and he couldn't keep his face straight for much longer "Sure I don't mind at all" he said as Fransisco sat beside him.

I stared at Xolec for a second. The guy actually couldn’t swim, not including the pitiful doggy paddle, he just couldn’t do it. I could feel my cheeks tinge a little pink. My hand found the back of my neck and I, being the silly love god-ling, more importantly a gentleman, I apolodgized. “Hey look I’m sorry for, umm, well, laughing at you.” I shook my head. “Yeah I’m real sorry about that.” I smiled a little. Trying to hide his embarrassment and hide whatever else needed to be hid, he started ramabling. “So you say you can’t swim? Well I can.” Well no shit Sherlock, its quite obvious. I thought to myself. “I can try to teach you but…” I trailed off. There was something about it. I didn’t want to swim, I just wanted to sit here.

Then, not knowing what else to say, I said: “Hey do you want to go catch lunch or something? All that swimming made me hungry.” You suck at anything, remotely, close to romantic right now Cisco! I screamed at myself. Why couldn’t this just be o-so easier then it actually was!? Oh well. I smiled, hoping a little, that he accepted the offer and went along with him to go catch something to grub on. We might even be able to see a movie, snuggle, cuddle: kiss. I can tell my smile immensely enlarged because the skin in the middle of my lip began to split a little. “Well I’ll be damned.” I said particularly to no one.

He frowned looking out into the lake again, it really did suck not being able to swim, he'd wanted to learn but there was no use in it, he always was to afraid to swim. He sighed looking back at Fransisco "It's alright.. people are often surprised by it anywho" he grinned before turning his attention to the lake again. it was calm, he actually enjoyed being close to water, and he didn't so much mind sitting in the water right now. He looked at Fransisco when he said he could swim trying to keep back a laugh, he'd definitely noticed awhile ago 'I think I'll skip swimming today" he admitted.

He raised an eyebrow when Fransisco asked him if he'd like to go to lunch, he was hungry, and he did skip breakfast during the morning, and last night he'd been to sick to eat supper, so he was actually hungry "Gosh.. haven't ate since lunch yesterday, I'd like to go for lunch" he said turning to Fransisco and grinning. He watched from the corner of his eyes as people came out of a car, a couple with a child. to cute he had to admit, he turned back to Fransisco as he spoke again, knowing it wasn't something he should reply to.
