It wasn't obvious that Elliot was naïve, he kept it hidden well. Over the years he had learned a thing or two about the in goings and out going of sex, thanks to various over view classes of sexual education. However they mainly consisted of how to treat women, and what a man done with them. It was fairly simple, but the whole concept left the man wondering. What happens when two women and two men are in love and want to have sex?

The noble never had the courage to ask his older brothers. For the fact the age gap between them, had always been a problem. They were all off courting woman before he even reached puberty. Now that he was coming of age, his hormones wandered quite a bit. Tempted he scoured the school's library to find something that would help his curiosity. Alas he found nothing, only romantic novels that contained men and women together. Was the world so against the new found thought, or was it that it had never been done.

Then he heard it, the muttering between a couple in the café. He was only in there to get a small set of pastries before he went back to the orphanage. They were gossiping and he was stuck in the queue behind them. They were discussing some on from their street. They kept saying how the man only had male company. They went on and on about it, and how terrible it was. How they couldn't believe that he was found out to be a mandrake. Once the scion had gotten his good he rushed back home and consulted his dictionary to try and find out what the word meant. Yet all he could find was that it was a type of root, and nothing more. Come dinner time Vanessa had asked him.

"So how was your trip to town?"

"It wasn't that bad, although two women was prattling on in front of me in a queue. Something about a mandrake."

As soon as he said the last word, the whole dinner table went silent. His sister and brothers had a stunned expression across his face. Was it something he said, after all no one had told him what it was, how was he meant to know.

"I apologize, if I said something wrong?"

"Elliot my dear son, never mention that term. You should no better then to bring those sort of people at the dinner table." His father muttered out and went back to what was left of his dinner.

Now this had made the young boy's mind boggle more. What was a mandrake, and who were those sort of people? He had so many questions and no one to ask. It was infuriating, at the fact the list of things he did know were being out weighted by the things he did know. Still he continued his meal in silence and went to his room afterwards wondering what on earth it all meant.

Shortly after going to the orphanage, he had struck up his friendship with Leo. At all the protesting of his family, he wouldn't be swayed. He wanted the man as his servant, to be his master of all things. Which turned out for the better. Since making the bond between them known to people he soon moved out into a private dormitory with Leo at the Latowidge school. Now the two of them shared a small area, which was mainly comprised of one room that had two beds in it and a long writing desk. Along with two bookcases, two dressers and one wardrobe. Along side that they had their own private bathroom. Seeing how the most of the other students didn't like Leo's sort being around them. Elliot insisted that one be put in for them.

The relation between the two of them soon caught the eye between a few people. Which had caused a few fights on Elliot's side. At the end of one particular one the boy had shouted.

"You're both a pair of mandrakes, you know that. Disgusting lot, shouldn't be even allowed in this place."

Elliot was just dragged away by Leo at this point, but there it was again. That word mandrake? What on earth did it mean, and what ever it was apparently Leo and himself were both it. He looked across to his friend and sighed.

"I'm sorry…." He muttered out, looking down at his feet as they walked back to their shared room.

"It okay, I'm used to this by now. You must really learn to control you temper its quite unbecoming of you."

That stung, the beige haired boy knew he shouldn't get into fights. It was unbecoming of him, yet he also had a very short fuse when it came to a lot of things. And Leo had been on the receiving end of that, although Leo gave back as good as Elliot dished out.

Getting back into their room Leo walked over to the pile of books that laid to the side of the very full book case and sat down on one of the chairs to read. That's when Elliot got the courage to finally ask someone. He thought at least Leo should know what this was all about, after all one he was a commoner. Two he had book smarts and seemed to have a knowledge over everything. Three he trusted the man, they were equals so it wouldn't look bad to ask him. Since neither of them would judge.

"Leo, can I ask you what does mandrake mean?" The scion mumbled out sitting on his bed, to take off his shoes and jacket.

"A mandrake? Oh you mean the insult that boy called you?"

"Yes that….I've heard it before, but I have no idea what it means."

"Surely you jest Elliot. Everyone knows what one of those sort are."

Elliot stayed silent, at the question. So Leo was judging him, and apparently it was all common knowledge to know what one was. Had he lived a sheltered life, the maids and servants back home had ran around him doing everything for him. He was made to study his lessons and training and only that. He couldn't learn or read anything that wasn't out of place back then. Still he had to be honest even if it would result in teasing.

He had to know.

"I'm afraid not, you were right when you called me a prince. I've probably no knowledge on a lot of common sense things."

Leo just folded a page then shut his book, the clap echoing in the room. Then the raven haired male turned to him, with a straight face for a change. Almost concerned, for the boy. He just brushed some of the hair away from his glasses and began to speak.

"A mandrake Elliot, is a term for gay male. And before you ask it, a gay male is a man that enjoys the company of other men. A man that sleeps with another man and so forth. The term rent-boy is again, the same sort of thing. It's a male prostitute that gives pleasure to other men for money. Whether it be anally or orally."

Elliot's jaw dropped, his mind was trying to process the information as fast as it could. That little speech had just answered his first question and a few that he had in the past. However it opened up so many other questions like how did men pleasure other men. Yes Leo had said either anally or oral, but how did that work? And what was oral, he knew the term was for the mouth. However he saw the smile appear on his valet's face. Which only meant he was blushing brighter then any rose could.

"My, my you really didn't know did you Elliot."

"No…I told you I didn't, but how does that….and where do you even being too?"

He knew he was talking gibberish, he could feel it as the words slipped off his tongue. He could also feel other parts of his body twitch slightly at the sound of all this. Which probably didn't help his demeanour, he just turned away to his personal dresser to look for something else to change into. Since it was getting late anyway. He may as well change for bed.

"So many questions eh Elli. I'll be happy to answer any more you think of. I assure you I know all about the in goings and out goings of male pleasure."

Elliot could feel the words go in to the back of his neck like daggers. And his temper began to flare, he had to call him Elli didn't he? The noble hated the nickname, everyone back home called him it. And all it did was bring back bad memories. It made him feel like a child, yet he was apparently when it came to this sort of nature. He really didn't have any idea.

"I told you never to call me that Leo. And answer my questions, how do you know I have any more? I might of just been curious to know if you knew what it was. It was all a bare faced lie, just to see if you knew. Happy?"

"Oh, but I can tell you have more Elli. Just from you experssion, and your body language now. You thinking about how it all works….you want to know everything."

The scion gulped, Leo could read him like an open book. And it was all true, he did want to know everything. Now that he knew a little bit, he wanted to know what other things men could do. He wanted to see what it was all like. It was like an passion of his that he had for years, a passion that was now unlocked for him to see.

"Leo…..do you think. You could tell me more?"

He mumbled out feeling all ashamed and defeated, with out even arguing really. He didn't know if Leo would take his request. Technically he had too for the fact the boy was Elliot's personal servant. There fore he had an obligation to full fill the request. Then again Leo picked and chose which request he did.

"There is a lot with the mandrake genre you do realise this Elliot?"

"I know….but I want to know. It's been something I've wanted to find out for a while now. No one ever talked to me about it. I think its looked down on society, that about all I know."

"Well that is true, a lot of the upper classes think down on it. Yet the commoners can vary depending on who they are. As for more knowledge I'd be happy to tell you all I know. Is there anything in particular that you wish to know?"

"Thank you…..erm I don't know where to begin with all this….since I know oral means mouth. How do you go about that."

"Well oral, as you put means mouth. So quite simple you take the erect arbor vitae, or plug tail as some people call it. And you place you lips over the tip and slowly take it into you mouth. While breathing through your nose, you try to relax yourself, so you don't initiate the gag reflex, since depending on the size some of them can touch the back of your throat. Then you suck on it slowly moving you head up and down, thus giving pleasure to the receiver of the action. An easy way to practice this is to suck on a banana that way you can practice your technique."

If his face was flushed the first time. This time it was dead, how on earth did this child know all of this. Was it because of the orphanage, or because he was a commoner. Yet he sounded like he had on hand knowledge of the act. And talking about it had all gone to his brain and in turn, turned on his hormones. He could feel the twitch in his erection. The tent was more then obvious, thankfully the scion had his back to the boy.

Still his he took his pants off or suddenly disappeared to the bathroom. Then Leo would know what he was up too. Then a thought came to him, a way to kill two birds with one stone he thought.

"Leo, it sounds like you have on hand knowledge of all this."

"That's because I do. I have no shame in saying it either Elliot, I'm proud to be gay. After all being an orphan one has to learn theses things to stay alive and make a living. That was till the orphanage took me in."

"Ah….I see. I'm sorry, I know you don't like talking about your past."

"It's quite alright, you asked for information, and I'm happy to give you it Elli. Although what do you plan to do know with the information? Hmmm? Are you going to find yourself a banana from the dinning hall now."

With that last comment the boy turned around and snapped at his friend. Although it was a bad move, because now he was standing up Leo had a clear view of the tent in his school trousers. He blushed once more and made an effort to hide it. Which only brought on a laugh from his friend.

"Well you caused it"

The noble had snapped out at the laughing. It wasn't a funny matter, after all. He had only touched himself a few times in the past. He had almost stopped all together when he had gotten a shared room with Leo. Afraid that he may wake the noirette up, with some ungodly noise or moan.

Leo just smiled and got up from his chair and walked up to his master. Standing right into his personal space and glanced up at him.

"Do you want me to take care of that?"

He uttered out, smiling growing wider as the blush on his companion's face grew even darker. He'd be more then happy to service his master. After all, it meant that he had one up on the man. Since he was now his teacher of sorts. He could always ask for it in return another time. And it wasn't like Elliot had caught his eye over the time they had spent together. He'd seen him shirtless once or twice. The noble did look good. Strong shoulders, thin waist with small defining muscle across the abdomen. Leo wanted to know if the lower part of Elliot was just a dishy.

"Take care of it….Leo….you can't. Its not proper. I…I can deal with myself."

"Are you sure, I would take it as a request. A servant is always here to serve his master."

"Leo…."

The man was stunned to see his friend so forward for a change. When they had lessons he was always so withdrawn from the world. He loved to be alone most of the time, was this something that had been lurking in the shadows. Now that seemed like a world away, his valet approached even closer he even dared to place his hands on the noble's hips. This was something that you rarely saw a glimpse of that it had to be true, not that8 it wouldn't be nice having it happen between the two. However it could break their friendship as it stood, Elliot wasn't wanting to take that gamble. He needed some proof that it wouldn't all just crumble.

"I….Leo…..before you go ahead with what ever it is your planning. I want you to do something else first."

"Oh so the prince wants to give in finally. Very well, what is it you want Elli?"

"Don't call me that….please….not like this. And I want….I want a kiss."

His friend just stood there hands still firmly on the scion's hips. Was he going to do it or not, Elliot's brain kept repeating over and over. Then those hands began to move, one went around to the small of his back. The other trailed up across his chest and cupped the side of his face. It was all so weird and unusual, yet it felt so enjoyable. He didn't know if it was teenaged hormones or if something inside of him wanted all this.

Maybe it was because it was so forbidden, that nobody ever mention it. That's why it was so exciting, so fun to have.

The noirette just smiled as he stroked the side of his master's face with his thumb. Tilting his head up he softly pressed his lips against the others. And left them there to linger. Elliot eyes went wide as he felt it, all the sparks that were running straight to his brain then down to throbbing member in his pants. He didn't know if he should press back. He'd read all about a man and woman, this should be the same in principle.

So he dared to take the plunge. Shakily his hand brushed the side of Leo's face as he pressed deeper into the kiss. Going off what he had read, he snuck his tongue out and brushed it against Leo's. The result wasn't what he had expected. Leo took the invite and forced his own tongue back, and now he had his friend's tongue invading his mouth. Licking the edges of his teeth, and the sparks didn't end they kept going on stronger.

He felt Leo push him backwards into on of the dressers. The noble quickly realized what was going on the fact that Leo sill intended on relieving his need. Yet Elliot was to entrapped by the kiss to even notice his lungs were screaming for air. Thankfully Leo did, he pulled away his cheeks slightly pink and panting.

The young male just watched as his valet move his hands once more. With quick precision he made light work of the belt that was blocking his path and quickly freed what Elliot had been trying to hide.

"Leo…you don't really have to do this. I mean I can just….."

"Oh do shut you babbling Elliot, its not good for a noble to babble on. And in any case this should prove I'm move then happy to do it."

He grumbled out taking the beige haired boy's hand and firmly pressing it against his crotch. Elliot would of fainted if his body wasn't so struck with curiosity. Had he caused that, the noble flexed his fingers just a little bit. Which earned his a small groan from the raven haired male. He removed his hand and finished the job that Leo had started. He undid the final few buttons on his school trousers and slipped his erection from the slit in his long johns. Letting out a small sigh as it felt so much better then being stuck in layers of fabric.

"Leo…if you do this, then I'll help you out in return. We're equals remember?"

"Oh I do Elliot, but for now I think you need a bit of practice before doing this, though there will be something you can do for me afterwards."

He let out a wicked smile as he lowered himself to his knees. Taking the throbbing length in the palm of his hand. Giving it few slow strokes Leo saw the head send out a few droplets of pre-cum, it was on the end of the flare tip shining so proud. He was going to enjoy this. Kissing the tip he sucked in the tiny drops and licked his lips. That salt taste, was something he hadn't tasted in a good few years.

It was bitter, with a sharp tang to the end of it. Leo couldn't contain himself anymore, he knew that Elliot probably wouldn't last long, still he was going to enjoy it as much as he could. Wrapping his lips around the hardness he quickly set himself to work, going at a very slow pace taking all of Elliot in. The small head of soft beige curls tickled his nose, but it didn't distract him. Not one bit, the smell of musk was so strong, it poured off the man. Running his tongue against the large vein on the underside earned him a muffled gasp. He glanced up to see Elliot holding a hand to his mouth and a hand on the dresser.

Oh it was such a shame, thought he'd have the noble moaning for him in due time. This was just the beginning of things to come. Leo had missed this, having a man in front of him. Even if he wasn't proud of what he done, he loved every second of it. He'd only slept with on other rent boy during his time, and that was with him being the more assertive. Every other time, it had always been just a cock to suck.

He slipped one of his nimble hands into the slit of the long johns and teased the scion's testicles feeling the velvet sacks with thin cold fingers. Elliot's body was burning hot compared to himself. Then again he never allowed to show his pleasure. Yet as the noble had said they were equals, so Leo could for once. Letting out a guttural moan with was one subdued by the fact his mouth was he felt his own need throb for attention.

However he knew the task at hand came first. So he started to pick up the pace no longer in the mood for teasing Elliot. It was all about pleasure, and feeling damn good about it. Scrapping his teeth harshly against the sensitive skin, as he reached the tip he dove his tongue in the slit swirling circles over it again and again.

Elliot let his head hang as he gripped the dresser with all him might. This felt like nothing he had even felt before. Not even when he had gripped his own need and relieved himself. This was just too much, he soon found himself seeing white spots as he bit down on his hand to stop the scream coming out. That was the best orgasm he had ever had. And that was all done with Leo's mouth? He felt like he was floating on air, completely spent. Like nothing could ever bring him down.

Leo on the other hand had enjoyed it, he drank down the thick white liquid quite vigorously sucking on it to get every last drop out of the man. He missed that taste, it coated his mouth and throat, it was like pure nectar to him. And now he had a continuous supply of it. And a willing subject to try a lot more things, he was interested in.

Realising the now flaccid dick, he made no attempt to tuck it back in. After all he knew Elliot would more then likely take them off to change,. But not before he had his fun. It was now his turn to get off, and it hurt something bad now.

"Now then, time for your first lesson. Although I'd get rid of the clothes, their such a pain to have on."

He muttered out quickly removing his own blazer, waistcoat and shirt. Leaving him with only his pants on which he quickly got out of and laid in clear view on Elliot's bed waiting for him. The noble tried to make sense of what he was being told, he was just so stunned, he was still feeling euphoric. Though he done what he was told, which wasn't hard since his trousers were in a pool around his ankles. Stepping out of the last of his clothes he joined Leo on his bed and looked at the raven haired male. Baffled to what to do next.

"Since your fairly knew to all this it seems. We'll start you off easy, I'm sure you know what tossing off is. Well that's what your going to do for me."

The valet stated out looking at the young man, like it was the most normal thing in the world to say. He tried to get his head around the whole thing. Bless Elliot he really wasn't in his comfort zone, yet he was a determined man. Once he had a goal to reach he done it, and this goal was to learn all he could about this whole business of being with a man.

Biting his lip slightly his hands shaking of their own accord. Whether it was out of fear, or interest he didn't know. Yet he started of somewhere safe, he laid his hand on the curve of Leo's hip and felt the smooth skin under his palm. It was soft and it looked so creamy, Leo was quite different from him, with his long hair and lithe body he was a stark contrast to the noble.

Sliding his finger tips with a feather light touch to them he went across the hip bones and down to the top of the groin where a small bush of thick black curls crowned the top of a rather thin and long length. He spent a minute or two to gather his nerves playing the soft curls before, bringing his fingers around Leo's dick. Going off what he liked when he was jacking himself off, he gave the length a firm squeeze and kept a solid grip as he slowly moved his hand up and down.

It was strange thing, it was a normal habit of any teenaged boy. Yet doing it to another male seemed so taboo, still there couldn't be that much wrong with doing this. Could there? He just kept the movements firm and sharp. Not that he wasn't enjoying it himself but the action made his valet pant, and his whole body began to flush. The tip was leaking quite heavily so Elliot gathered it with his palm to ease the friction in his movements and leant his own body closer to noirette.

He just thought to do it as if it was his own. That's all it was, till Leo pulled another trick on him. He was gazing down at what he was doing just listening to the little wanton noises that came out of his friends mouth. Along with a few profanities, Leo really did have such a dirty mouth. Then again he was a servant, he could get away with it. When the beige haired male sped up his pumping the noriette was quick to grab his face and crush there lips together.

He stopped the ministrations, so caught up in this, his second kiss. Till Leo mumbled against his lips asking why'd he stopped? His brain suddenly made the connection and he returned to wanking the other man off. Switching between hard and fast strokes, with soft light twists with slower jerks. The moans poured out as he felt his mouth being invaded for the second time. This time he fought back, trying to hold his own against a more experienced man.

The grip Leo kept on Elliot grew more intense as he felt that familiar coil settle in the bottom of his pit. He didn't have time to warn Elliot or anything he just arched his back and came all over Elliot's fingers. That had been good, tonight he'd probably sleep well. No nightmares or anything, he'd have thoughts of all the things he could teach Elliot. And all the cock he wanted from now on.

Elliot looked down at his hand while Leo was in his own bliss. Detaching himself from the softening length, he inspected the white semen on his fingers. Most of the time he had just washed it off, though Leo had drank his down. Taking it to his nose, he sniffed at it and it didn't smelt that bad, just a strong smell of musk really. Daring to push all boundaries, he licked his index finger with the tip of his tongue. And shook his head at the taste, it was terribly bitter and salty. Did his taste like this too?

Leo glanced over at his master once his breathing had calmed down. And watched the scion inspect the sperm on his finger tips. He let out a small chuckle when his master shook his head, it wasn't to everyone's taste, but he would teach Elliot to like it. Reaching out the raven haired male took the hand and liked it clean making sure there wasn't a drop let. Then he enraptured Elliot once more for a slower kiss, letting the novice explore the mixture of taste. Between his own saliva and his semen, maybe that might warm him up to the taste, if not the whole idea…
