Summary: Donny di Angelo never cared about fighting or becoming a hero. Quite the opposite of Sander Rodriguez, who was the greatest Greek hero of their generation. Together with his beloved cousin Nico Zhang and his best friend Thea Chase, Donny faces the hardest quest possible. The one for confidence and love. His biggest support though are his parents and siblings. Being a teenage demigod was hard, being the son of the greatest hero ever was even harder.

Chasing Fireflies

The Next Generation of Heroes

6. The Thing With the Spanking

/diary|entry\

Okay, now I'm using you to get some more self-esteem. I'm totally nervous. When I visited my cousin Nico yesterday, she told me to learn how to relax. She said I should... uh... masturbate. Like... touching myself! How can she suggest such dirty things?!

The first thing I did was asking two very good friends for advice. Google and Wikipedia. And it seems Nico was right. Masturbating seems to really help relaxing. Not sure about that. And – that is really embarrassing – I'm sixteen and an unkissed virgin. I've never even touched myself. I know how it works, I guess, but... I'm unsure about how this is going to be...

I don't know what I'm going to like or what would... uh... turn me on? I mean, all I know about sex, I learned in a very embarrassing Sex Ed class given to us by aunt Piper. But I do know that there are more things to sex than just... well, what we learned there. I'm just not sure what.

But those porn look weird. I don't know if I really want to watch that...

/entry|end\

Donny sat on the black-sheets, chewing his pen nervously while staring from his diary over to the laptop. He was hiding in the Hades cabin since it was practically his too and his cousins weren't due for another week or two with their visit. He could not watch such films in the Poseidon cabin! If his siblings would see... Good gods, that would be his death! So here he was, with the stolen laptop of Daedalus. He just hoped his best friend wouldn't mind.

"Donny? Have you seen my laptop?", called a voice from behind.

Okay, it seemed that she did mind that. Blushing slightly, he hastily closed the laptop and stared at her like a deer in the headlights. His blush darkened even more as he saw who stood right next to her. Sander. Well, of course. If you're looking for something that got stolen, ask the grandson of the god of thieves for help. Sander and Thea exchanged a weird look and closed the door. Donny gulped hard as the two walked up to him, just to sit on either side of him.

"Okay, what is up with you?", asked the son of Clarisse in a sharp tone of voice. "First you disappear to the Romans without much warning, then you're getting weirdly flustered when you saw Trick and Shadow together and now you're borrowing Thea's laptop without asking."

Not stealing, he would never call anything Donny did something bad. The young Sea Prince blushed and tried to avert his eyes, looking all the innocent kitten that had eaten the goldfish.

"Why didn't you ask? You know I'd give it to you anyway", hummed Thea a bit hurt.

"Because you would have asked why I needed it", muttered Donny and blushed darkly.

"Why...? Why do you need it?", asked Thea now very curious.

"Oh. I see", snickered Sander wickedly.

Donny's eyes widened. When had the trickster stolen the laptop from his grasp?! Sander was staring at the open tabs highly amused, clicking through the different websites with interest.

"Well? What is it?", huffed Thea confused.

"He found that folder of your favorites that is labeled as 'yaoi goodness' and he has been... reading, watching and researching it obviously. Wikipedia is helpful, eh?", snickered Sander and winked.

"Why have you been going through my favorites?", grunted Thea with one raised eyebrow.

"Because Nico said I'm too tense and that I should try masturbating and I don't really... So I thought I'd try watching porn. But then you had those links to this site with the stories and I started reading and now I'm hugely confused and the films didn't help any! Neither did Wikipedia!"

He gave a pitiful whine and collapsed on the bed, trying to hide his face in the pillows. This exact situation was what he had tried to avoid. But now he was sitting between his laughing friends.

"No need to be embarrassed, Don", smiled Sander softly and ruffled his hair. "What's so confusing? Maybe we can help you through that. We do have a little more experience with sex than you."

"The... The things Thea is reading are so... I don't understand them", sighed Donny and sat up.

"What about them?", wanted Thea to know and tilted her head.

"Why is one always so... so... I don't know! That he enjoys being insulted and hurt, I don't get that! And why is he agreeing to calling his boyfriend 'master', that's stupid! Shouldn't they like be in a relationship and love each other? But one is always the possession of the other! Why should anyone want that?! And why do the... uh... passive ones always enjoy being... being... hit on their bare behinds in those stories?! Is that how sex works?! Why should anyone want that?!", exclaimed Donny frustrated and and hid his face between his hands. "That's horrible!"
"You are the cutest thing on this planet", laughed Sander and wrapped one arm around Donny's shoulders to pull him close and ruffle his hair. "Sometimes I just want to lock you up in a room and never let you out so the world outside can't corrupt you."

"Yes, yes, Donny is adorable, nothing new there", huffed Thea and rolled her eyes, pushing herself into Donny's view. "So you're confused by BDSM, yes?"

The younger teenager blushed brightly and nodded hastily. Sander was still laughing slightly, until the half-Italian glared up at him. The seriousness in those sea-green eyes shut him up.

"Okay", coughed Chrysander and tried to regain a straight face. "Let me try to explain that to you, mh? The thing is that... It's not that the sub – the passive one – is the possession of the other, like he doesn't mean anything to his dom. The relationship between them is based on trust. It's not about cruelty or brutality, the pain delivered is a pleasurable one. If it's too much, the sub can use a safeword to end that game at any moment. That's what brings the trust into this. The sub needs to know that he can trust his dom completely with his wants and desires, with his body. And it only works if that trust is established. Because then the sub can let go completely. That's the fun of the game, it's what the subs like about this. That they can relax completely, give up control. They have someone who takes care of them completely and like nothing else. Bondage and punishments are just parts of this game to ensure it, so to say. Bondage means for the sub to give up even more control and, well, punishments serve for when the sub doesn't obey. But that's also only a game. Like I said, if the sub really doesn't like it, he can always use the safeword."

"A... game of trust?", muttered Donny confused, but a tiny bit intrigued. "But... the insults...?"

"Are not really meant as insults", chuckled Sander and gestured a bit. "You see, when the dom calls his sub a slut or something like that, it's not meant as an insult, but a bit more of a... compliment... Wait up, let me finish! They don't really mean a slut that goes around, sleeping with anyone, but just that they're completely willing for their dom... Because it shows just how ready the sub is to submit to his partner. Like, I don't call you a slut because you grind against every guy who looks your way, but because you're eager and amazing in bed. Well, uh, I mean... not you, but, you get it, right?"

Thea rolled her eyes again and laughed slightly as both boys blushed furiously. "How about we watch something to prove those theses?"

"You mean you guys want to sit together and watch porn?", huffed Donny wide-eyed.

"Well, they're my favorites", shrugged Thea and clicked through her folder. "I mean, I always enjoy watching a cute uke getting spanked by his seme. Flustered uke are the cutest things ever."

"Uh...? What?", blinked the son of Perseus confused and stared questioningly up at Sander.

"Uke, sub, passive partner, it all refers to the one spreading their legs. Or bending over, whatever you prefer", grinned the brunette amused. "And the seme, the dom or master or active part is the other, the one with their cock up the other's ass."

"San! Language!", yelped Donny, his ears turning red.

"You're so innocent, Disney Princess", grinned Sander and pulled the other boy closer.

"Ah! That one is perfect!", exclaimed Thea and laid back too, wrapping her arms around Donny's waist to cuddle up to the boy. "It's about two couples, the seme are twins. And then the uke notice that their partners switch from time to time and they get wasted in frustration, which leads to hot sex because one of the uke is a total slut and the other is always stubborn to submit. In the end-"

"Yeah, right. Ruin the end, Chase", grunted Sander and hit her upside the head.

"Why... Why do you know so much about this? And why are you okay with us watching such things together now?", asked Donny and turned wide, curious eyes onto Sander.

"I'm bisexual", shrugged Sander, a cheeky and broad grin forming on his lips. "I don't care if I have a girl or a guy laying under me. As long as they're cute and have a nice ass. I do have a thing for nice asses. It's why I know about 'this' so much. I've never denied a cutey that wanted a spanking."

"R... Really?", blinked Donny wide-eyed and surprised. "But... Why?"

"Because it's really hot when you have your lover squirming on your lap and a sweet ass turning dark red with every slap", smirked Sander and licked his lips.

"So... That's really good?", frowned Donny skeptically.

"Very good", purred Sander very convincingly and shifted slightly, though then he grew serious again and stared into Donny's eyes. "You're getting curious. No need to blush. But you have to promise me one thing, Donny. You really have to promise, okay?"

"What?", asked the young Sea Prince slowly.

"Don't try it out with the first guy that comes around. Only if you're really sure that you trust the guy, you hear me? I don't want you to get hurt, Donny. You need someone you trust completely, someone good, yeah?", asked Sander softly and intensely, waiting until Donny nodded hastily. "Good. Can we watch the movie now? I'm getting horny even before the porn started!"

Donny gulped nervously and nodded slowly. His blush darkened a bit as Sander pulled him some closer until he had his head resting on the brunette boy's stomach, his arms folded beneath him so he could feel the hard muscles beneath the orange shirt. Thea was laying half on Sander and half on Donny, her chin on the young Sea Prince's shoulder as she pressed the play-botton.

The son of Percy and Nico didn't get all too much from the movie. Because he could still feel the six-pack of his crush and the way he was laying, his eyes always got dragged to the slowly building tent in Sander's jeans. All the while, he got to listen to the thing he liked most. Sander's water. Every body with moving water had a certain song to it, like the song captured in sea-shells. And every song was different. The one Donny liked most was Sander's though. It was wild and had a faster going rhythm than most others, like a battle about to happen. But the harsh tones were interrupted by cheerful patterns every once in a while. The cheekiness of the trickster within him interrupting his strict fighter genes. Two so different songs, and yet they fit perfectly. Sea-green eyes stared in amazement at the huge tent in the dark jeans. That tent was really... interesting.

"That is fucking hot", groaned Sander, his hand still nestled into Donny's hair.

Sea-green eyes blinked and turned to pay some attention to the movie. There were four people, two brunette identical twins, an exotic boy who laid beside them and watched how the twins pulled out of the fourth one, laying in their arms with both their cocks within the pretty boy. The twins slowly pulled out of their lover and collapsed on the bed.

"You didn't let him come", commented the one laying next to them and wrapped his arms around the submissive's waist.

"We know", smirked both brothers, each laying down behind one of their lovers.

"Why not?", whimpered the submissive with teary eyes, tugging at his still cuffed hands.

"Because Valentine's is not over yet and we're not finished with your for today, slut", growled one of the twins and bit the back of the sub's neck to leave a mark of his own. "You're only allowed to come once you've pleased us thoroughly. You know the rules."

"I—I know", sighed the sub and averted his eyes, cuddling closer to the exotic young man next to him. "Sorry, masters."

"I really like this", grinned the other twin stupidly, kissing the exotic one's shoulders. "We three are so going to fuck our poor slut completely dumb."

Donny blushed furiously. So that was how it ended. The more dominant sub had fucked the other sub and then watched how the more submissive one got doubled? And if he looked at the actor that had just been taken by three guys, he looked quite pleased... Must have been a really good actor, or getting spanked, fucked, doubled and yet being denied to come was truly pleasant. Yeah, he certainly was a good actor. Just seeing how red-spanked his cheeks were and how the cum dripped out of the young actor... Donny blushed furiously. That couldn't be good or pleasant.

"Okay, either we're going to have a threesome now or I'll bide my good bye and take care of the aftermaths of that movie", joked Sander and pushed Donny off slowly. "I have classes to teach later on so that hard-on needs to be taken care of."

"Yeah, right", laughed Thea amused and stared after him. "Have fun, Sander!"

She giggled slightly and her giggling grew into a full-blown laugh as she saw her best friend's erection. Donny huffed and blushed brightly, trying to cover it with the blankets. Though then she suddenly jumped off the bed and grinned wickedly.

"What are you up to?", huffed Donny and blinked suspiciously.

"I have a present for you! It was supposed to be your birthday present, but seeing as your birthday is still a couple of months off and you look like you could use it now, I'm going to get it!"

Wide, sea-green eyes stared after her. The young prince sighed and shifted some, a bit uncomfortable due to the hard state of his member. His blush brightened. He hadn't even watched much of that stupid porn! All he had done was... Oh, right, staring at Sander. The blush deepened even more. He heaved a sigh, wondering what his best friend wanted. It only took Thea a couple of minutes before she came back, giggling like a maniac. She pushed a package into his hands and he frowned. Curiosity got the best out of him and he ripped the package open. The content made him blush the darkest red ever. A long, hard object and a bottle.

"A dildo and lube. Have fun, Donny. I'll just go and close the door behind me", hummed Thea.

She grinned mischievously and left, doing as she had said. Donny stared at the dildo in utter disbelief. But he still needed to test Nico's theory, right? He glanced at the door. When their cousins weren't here, his siblings never came to the Hades cabin. And everyone else avoided it anyway. Sander was busy with his own erection and Thea wouldn't bother him again either since she was planning for him to masturbate. And now he actually needed to somehow get rid of his problem. So... why not trying it? Blushing furiously, he pulled his shirts up over his head and opened his pants to push them down. He sighed relieved as his erection was freed. Closing his eyes, he leaned back against the soft pillows and took the dildo and lube out of the package.

Relaxing. He needed to relax. Opening the bottle, he poured a good amount of the cold lubrication onto his hands, yelping at the temperature. He rubbed his hands together to warm it a bit before he touched his member and started to stroke the length, gasping at the interesting feeling. He gripped tighter, moving his hand up and down, caressing the head. That was nice. Good. Really good. Biting his lips in embarrassment, he spread his legs and let his free hand wander down to his puckered hole. Biting down on his lower lip even harder, he started to circle the sensitive area and moaned in surprise at how intense it felt. His cock twitched at the touch and he immediately wanted more. Tightening his grip on his member, he slid one finger very slowly inside, then adding another one and a third, craving more and more. As three fingers still weren't enough, he huffed annoyed and pulled them out again to grab his new dildo (a cool swirling mix of blue and black) and inserted it in one swift go. Donny threw his head back and moaned. Now that was good. Jerking harshly, he thrust and pulled out just to thrust harder again. It was good, but something was missing.

Motivation. He had no real motivation behind the rhythmic movement. His eyes were tightly closed as he let his mind wander to more pleasurable places.

"I don't care if I have a girl or a guy laying under me. As long as they're cute and have a nice ass. I do have a thing for nice asses. It's why I know about 'this' so much. I've never denied a cutey that wanted a spanking. Because it's really hot when you have your lover squirming on your lap and a sweet ass turning dark red with every slap."

A wanton moan escaped Donny's lips. So Sander didn't care if boy or girl, he only cared about butts. That suddenly remembered him of something San had said the other day though... Had... Had Sander meant that? That Donny had a nice ass? Did San really like it or had he only said it to make Donny feel better? And if he really, really meant it... would he want Donny squirming on his lap too? Donny felt something in his stomach knotting and his member twitching again at that. Was it that? The odd feeling when Sander had slapped his behind so playfully? Because his body had liked that? Donny tried to test that theory, concentrating hard on the feeling of Sander's hand slapping his ass. It had been a bit of a hard slap though. He tried his best to recall it.

"Sa—an", moaned Donny as his body seemed to tighten just for the knot to break.

An overwhelming sensation broke all barriers, it was as if all his thoughts and feelings were swamped out of his body, leaving him panting and his body pulsing. He needed a couple of minutes before he could move again. The first thing he did was lifting his hand curiously. It was covered in a sticky, milky substance. Looking left and right – as if he expected anyone to suddenly pop up next to him – he opened his mouth and slowly licked on his hand. He shuddered at the salty taste. Because he was Poseidon's grandson? Or did it always taste like that? It wasn't really pleasant so why should anyone willingly swallow it? Sander's certainly tasted better.

Oh gods, what was he thinking about?! His cheeks flushed again.

Blinking again, he looked down at his hand. Oh, okay, maybe it wasn't that bad after all. Without noticing, he had licked it all clean. For a second he contemplated if he should remove the dildo. But he really liked the feeling of something within him, so he decided to keep it in for the moment. Stretching over the bed, he grabbed his diary and pen again, grateful his friends hadn't noticed that. It would have been even more embarrassing to explain to them that he was writing diary.

/diary|entry\

I just masturbated. Aaand... I really liked it. Thea bought me a dildo and lube. Which in itself disturbs me very much. But now that I used them, I'm grateful to her.

I wouldn't have thought that it could feel good to have something within my ass, but it somehow did.

The most embarrassing thing about this however is that I... uh... I was thinking about, well, Sander had said that he enjoys spanking his lovers and I remembered how he had said that I have a nice butt and how he had slapped it and I know he only said it to make me feel better after I had been all down and I know the slap was playful, but it made me wonder if he would like to spank me too. And the moment I had an orgasm – must have been that because it was really intense and overly awesome – I had been thinking of how his hand had come down on my butt.

Now I'm really freaked out. But also kind of relieved, which sort of freaks me out even more. I mean, I'm relieved because I guess that I would probably maybe enjoy what he enjoys most too. Not that I really know, I mean I have never been spanked and I still can't really picture that it is much fun. But I kind of had liked how he had slapped me, but mostly because it was praising and a bit like a compliment. But then again, hadn't San said something like that? That this whole pain-thing was part of the game and a good thing? What if it really was? Even though it was so... ridiculous?

I think I would try it. But only with Sander. Well, he had said that this needs trust. And I trust him completely, after mom and dad he is the one I trust most, he has saved me often enough.
