1860s Great Britain
"Logan! Get up now! The guests for the company ball will be here in less than 2 hours!" Logan's mother pulled apart the long velvet curtains letting the sunlight spill into the room.
"Oh mother you worry too much. I don't even see why we're having this absurd ball at our estate."
"Because you ungrateful twit, your father and I need grandchildren soon so we can rest in peace that our work is passed on for at least another generation or two. So get up and get changed. Now!"
"Yeah too bad she doesn't know I have no interest in petty ladies with only titles and etiquette. That'd be the day."
Logan lazily sat up in his bed and rubbed the crust from his eyes. "This is so stupid." Of course Logan knew how to dance it's just he wasn't interested in the type of people for the next hour Logan prepared himself for the coming ball and all the while complaining. After he was dressed with half an hour to go his maid and best friend Eloise came into his lavish room.
"Good morning Master Mitchell, you look good today." Eloise had a certain finesse to her. She was roughly around the same age as Logan and had long dark brown hair that was tied up in a bun but you wouldn't ever know it because Mistress Mitchell required that every slave had their hair up in a bonnet and wear the uniform she herself approved. Eloise is a chocolate skinned slave who was mostly thin and had the best personality also a close friend of Logan's.
"Oh Eloise quit with the formalities it's just you in and me in here. Sit with me for a bit." Logan sat down on his lounge couch in front of his King sized bed and motioned for her to sit next to him.
"Logan if your mother finds me not working I'll be punished and maybe even put out into the streets for this."
"My mother isn't that crazy or at least I don't think she is. Well anyway what do you think of this ball we're throwing here." She had a look of honesty on her face. "Well, me knowing that you don't find women attractive makes this entire ball seem like an entire waste. But maybe a man among the crowd will be just like you and sweep you off your feet."
"Yeah maybe."
Logan's mother yelled up the stairs. "Eloise! I need you down here with the other workers to welcome the guests! Now!"
"Well I guess I'll talk to you later tonight. Good day Master Mitchell."
"Good day Eloise." Eloise scuttled out of the room and closed the door behind herself.
"Guess I'll head down now too." Logan said with contempt in his voice.
After 6 grueling hours of dancing with would be mistresses and other rich ladies Logan thought his luck would never turn until Logan saw a nice looking gentleman sitting across from him on the other side of the ballroom. Logan felt his breath catch in his breath by the sight of him.
"I can't breathe oh god Eloise get over here now but where are you? Oh there she is"
In a loud whisper Logan called to Eloise. "Eloise! Come here now!" Eloise saw Logan's distressed look and scurried right over. "Hello Master Mitchell, here's a drink for you and what did you require of me?"
"Th-th-eres um an uh um pleasing to the eyes man over there and he seems interested in me. What do I do?" Logan couldn't possibly look up to the mysterious man but he saw Eloise slowly and carefully looked at the gentleman. "Well?" said Logan "What do you think?" Eloise let a small smile spread across her lips "Calm down Logan and take a sip of your drink first you look like you're about to fall apart." He drank the entire cup without question in one gulp. "That did help now who is that?"
"You don't know who that is?"
"No? Who? Who could it be?" Logan asked with curiosity.
"That is-
"Eloise! Get back to serving or I'll have you put out!" Yelled Mistress Mitchell.
"Im sorry Logan. Right away Mistress!" and with that she scurried off to go serve the food to the guests.
"My luck couldn't have gotten worse"
But he was wrong; the mystery man walked up to Logan and sat down in the armchair next to him.
Oh god what do I do? Say something stupid!
Logan looked over at the handsome gentleman and swallowed a dry and hard swallow "Hi I I'm Logan Mitchell. Um well are you having a nice time here and what may I call you?" The mystery man took a while to answer and just gazed into Logan's eyes and likewise. "Well are we just going to stare at each other or are you going to answer me?"
"Well it's nice to make your acquaintance Mr. Mitchell" They both shake each other's hand warmly and it takes all of Logan's strength not to gasp out of the love he is feeling in the moment. "My name is James Diamond and no, I really wasn't having much fun here, mainly because these people aren't exactly my type."
"Does he mean what I think he means? I sure hope so."
In a whispered voice "What do you mean James?"
"Well to be honest with you I don't prefer women I prefer handsome young men." Both of their eyes met. "Such as you."
Logan's heart beat quickly doubled no tripled! Someone just like him is sitting right next to him and is interested in him too! What could get better than this!
A huge smile was starting to spread across Logan's face "Li-like me? Really? You mean you like me like you really like me?"
"Uh well you see no."
Bam. Logan was crushed, destroyed, and has fallen from the height of his happiness. The smile now gone, "What? But you just said."
"You didn't let me finish. I like-like you Logan from the moment I first saw you I fell in love with you."
"Really? That's good because I feel like I've made a connection with you too." The two lovers started to lean closer to eachother but then before another word or action could be done the large clock in the ballroom stroke midnight telling everyone that the party was coming to an end and that everyone say their farewells.
James stood and looked at a bewildered Logan and grabbed him by the hand "Goodnight Logan and sleep well." He took Logan's hand into his rather large one and gave it a sweet kiss. "You can talk to Eloise if you wish to see me again and I would very much like that."
"Me too, and farewell to you Mr. Diamond." Logan sat still as he watched his lover depart as well as all the other guests and finally all the other servants coming out to clean up the mess in the house. He sat in pure happiness and wonderment until he saw that his mother was gone and that Eloise was coming up next to him.
"So did you like him Master Mitchell?" Eloise said as she sat down next to him. "Yeah, I did like him a lot maybe even more than a lot El. You said you knew him too? So who is he?"
"Well you see the Diamond family owns and produces exactly what their last name is, Diamonds. Their business is called 'Diamond International'. They are all extremely rich it's strange that someone like him would come here and by chance meet you. Now let's get you up to bed its late." They both walked upstairs.
Wow I can't believe someone so rich and handsome would like me! This is just so perfect!
Logan slipped off his shirt and trousers and slipped right into his warm bed. "Well goodnight Eloise and see you in the morning."
"No Logan you won't. Well not consciously anyway."
She smiled at him sadly and with reluctance "Goodnight Master Mitchell and always remember that im your friend."
"Oh good night Eloise."
Gosh I slept good last night. I wonder where James laid his head down tonight?
Logan started to move his legs in his bed.
Gosh these sheets need changing they aren't very comfortable.
"Eloise! Get me my clothes please!"
Gosh what's taking her so long? Hey what's going on?
Logan opened his eyes to only see pitch black and that he was in a very confined space. "What the hell? Eloise! Help me! Mother! Father! Someone help me!" But no one answered him. "Hello what's going on?! Where am I?! Where is anyone?"
Logan was in a laid down position and tried to sit up but hit his head on something hard. "Fuck!" He tried moving his legs and arms but to find that they too were constricted in a small space. "What the hell is going? Eloise!"
Logan started to search the small space with his hands and legs to find something maybe even a lighter, a knob, or some way to get out. He found a small string just above his head and he started to yank on it and very faintly heard a bell ringing above him. "I better not be where I think I am." Now Logan can hear some people yelling from above.
"What the hell is going on?" He heard faintly from above "Who-down-were goi—you out!"
As loud as he possibly could "HELP ME! IM STUCK HURRY! WHERE AM I?! Then a bright and blinding white light hit Logan's eyes causing him to be temporarily blind. "What the hell." Logan said as he sat up.
After a few moments of rubbing his eyes they finally refocused only to see that he was in a graveyard and more importantly in a coffin, not his warm bed. "Wha-
Logan didn't finish his sentence because he fainted from the confusion and shock but before he went all the way the last thing he saw was emerald green eyes looking into his.
