Chapter 8
Octavius finished off his cigar and glanced at his wristwatch.
12:43 in the afternoon.
His thoughts drifted back to Zachary sleeping on that uncomfortable couch and he remembered he had yet to prepare the young man his own room. If the youth continued to sleep on that couch he would start to develop back pains and that is the last thing the 17 year old boy should have to worry about at this point.
A small smile graced the man's face as an idea formed in his brilliant mind and he pushed himself up out of his chair and headed towards his lab. The moment he walked in his tentacles went to work going through a few different drawers and small cabinets and prepared a small syringe and filled it one fourth of the way full with a mild sedative.
He plucked the small needle from his tentacle's claw with his hand and walked through the various small 'halls' and into his small living room. Zachary was still sleeping peacefully on his back and Otto quietly approached the sleeping youth. Steadily as possible he kneeled down and carefully pushed the remains of the boy's sleeve up onto his shoulder. Waiting a moment he watched for any sign the teenager might stir and was relieved when there was none. Carefully to not wake the young man he injected the sedative into the spot where his shoulder joined the base of his neck.
The boy flinched in his sleep but did not wake and thanks to the sedative now running through his blood stream he would not wake until he was woke by Octavius himself. Otto did this so the boy would not waken as he was leaving and returning to the warehouse over and over again.
He disposed of the now contaminated syringe and quietly left the warehouse.
He spent the next few hours trying to steal light pieces of furniture without being seen by the general public. He made many trips to and from the warehouse and made sure to only steal from stores that were not to far away from the actual hideout.
After about his third time of returning to the hideout he stopped and remembered that Zachary had been in town longer than just the time with him, therefore must have brought and left some of his belongings somewhere.
He had kneeled down next to the teen a second time and had to very carefully search through the young man's pockets. It had been very awkward but it had paid off because along with a wallet and half of a pencil he had found the card and room key to a motel.
He made a quick stop there and had been surprised by how little belongings the boy had brought with him. Just a backpack that had been stuffed as full as possible. He had just shrugged it off and made exactly two more stops before returning back to the hideout one last time.
He then spent the next forty-five minutes setting thing up and by the time he was done he was tired but very pleased by the results.
He then stopped in his office for another dearly needed cigar and a short rest. After he had relaxed and regained his strength (not to mention a quick stop to the lavatory) he then again returned to the place where Zachary was drifting in yet another sedative induced sleep.
He couldn't help but to pause and watch the youth sleep for a moment longer, but then forced himself forward and shook the boy.
A low groan was then heard and two bleary sleep filled eyes looked up at him. As always the black bangs were present and in their customary place in the boy's eyes. Only this time those eyes looked a little more…how do you say…drugged than usual.
"What.. izz it?"
Otto couldn't help but snicker at the younger man's annoyed and sleepy tone.
"Get up. I have a surprise for you."
The teenager visibly woke up at the word 'surprise' and rushed to stand up. The drug was still affecting him slightly though, and he stumbled. Otto pulled the boy up and wrapped his human arm around the boy's waist to keep his steady. But instead of releasing him when he was balanced, he kept his hold on the teen's waist so he was pulled up against the older man's side.
Keeping the said arm in place he half lead half pulled the young man with him and though slightly uncomfortable by the close contact, Zachary was still a little tired and let himself lean on the other man.
When they reached the destination, Otto flipped the light switch inside the dark room.
He grinned when he heard the younger man gasp and actually felt the intake of breath against his own body.
It was a fair sized room and pushed up against one wall was a black futon put into bed position. Two pillows with charcoal gray covers and matching blanket were set up. On another wall was a large gray painted chest of drawers and a matching desk and small bookcase were up against the opposite walls.
Next to the chest of drawers was a plain full-length mirror that was hung on the wall and a backpack was sitting on the floor next to the bed. It was fairly plain but that had been done purposely so it would be able to be decorated by the new owner of the room.
"Thank you."
Zachary's voice came out full of surprise and obvious shock.
Otto just chuckled and squeezed the young man's waist.
"Your welcome. Now, you're tired. Why don't you go to bed?"
Zachary just nodded and staggered forward. Octavius had paused before releasing the teenager's waist and watched the young man climb into his new bed and promptly pass out.
Chuckling he took one last look at the young man and turned off the light. He quietly shut the door and headed towards his own room. It had been a long day and he was quite tired himself.
