CHAPTER ONE!
The young prep sat on the balcony of Harrington House, drinking fine red tea from the porcelain cup.
He was accompanied for tea time with his red-haired bodyguard as they discussed the new spring issue of the Aquaberry catalogue, and about boxing matches and other little things that made them happy.
Derby rang his silver bell. "Avery!" He called. The dark brown haired prep had rushed to the balcony, teapot in hand.
"More tea for Bif and I, please?" Derby requested.
Avery's cheeks lit rose as he poured tea into both cups. "Oh, yes...anything for you, Derby..." He drawled with a bow, while giving Bif a cold glare.
Avery Ottling was at low standard in his clique. It may have been the fact that he was not inbred, or maybe because his family was wealthy, but not as wealthy as the others.
But Avery had one goal in mind. He was a closeted bisexual, and he was totally, absolutely, and completely in love with Derby Harrington, and will do absolutely anything to win that Harrington heart.
He loved Derby in every way—he had a schoolboy crush on him, pictured him as the perfect boyfriend, being the perfect husband, and at many times, lusted uncontrollably over Derby.
"Avery," Derby called out to him. Oh, how I just love the way he says my name... he thought in his head.
"Y-yes, Derby?"
"Please tell Justin later to quit hanging around with the jocks. It is really quite a nuisance. And please also inform him that his egg jokes are getting quite tiresome," Derby said as he sipped his tea.
"I understand, Derby. I will certainly get right to it. If there's anything else you need, please tell me. It will certainly be done." Avery was ordered around by Derby a lot, and he liked it. He wanted to be Derby's obedient dog.
"Alright, Avery. Dismissed."
Avery bowed again and went to go see if anyone else needed help too. He was still considerate to everybody else, and loved helping people. Derby was just his top priority.
He wanted Derby to love him—even if it was just for pretend...he wouldn't mind, he could at least pretend that Derby actually loved him.
But for real love, Avery wouldn't ask for anything else.
Nobody knew about Avery's love for Derby, not even his best friends Bryce, Parker or Gord.
Perhaps Derby did.
Avery also disliked Miss Pinky Gauthier for a while because she was supposed to marry Derby when they were older, but then she apparently went slumming with Jimmy Hopkins and now she's in love with him, so now Avery's got 'nothing to worry about with her.'
Avery's only problem was Bif Taylor. Bif was Derby's best friend and bodyguard, and was second in command. Avery didn't want Bif so close to Derby all the time. He didn't like it. He wanted to be the one Derby trusted and hung out with all the time.
Bif Taylor had to be taken down. He was a threat.
Avery blushed and wondered if Derby ever thought of him in that way. He presumed definitely not, but there was a spark of hope.
Avery had spotted Justin later speaking to Dan Wilson in the basketball court. "Excuse me, Justin. Please come with me for a quick second?"
"Oh, uh, sure?" Justin said, surprised as he followed Avery.
"Derby said he doesn't want you to hang out with the jocks anymore because it is a nuisance to him," Avery said with a serious tone.
"But...I've made positive relationships with them," Justin said.
"Listen, Derby said no. And when Derby says no, he means no. So if you deny Derby's orders, you can forget about your October Yacht, because that boat is going to sink, Justin. I tell you, it will." Avery threatened with fire in his eyes, walking away. He then turned around again, throwing an egg at him he had in his bag. "And your stupid egg jokes need to stop." Was his final saying until he reported back to Derby.
"Good job, Avery," Derby said. "Is there something you would like as a reward?"
Avery shook his head. "Derby...I don't need any reward from you...just having you as our leader is all enough for me," he drawled desperately.
Derby smiled. "You're a good kid, Avery," he said, patting him on the head as Avery looked up and reddened deeply. "The others should learn a thing or two from you." Derby walked away into the next room.
Avery was helpless against his leader. Derby was his everything...and he wanted to be his everything too.
