Chapter 3- Questions and Answers
After completing her morning chores, she chose to sit in the garden for awhile; she didn't have to work again for another two hours.
As she stared up at the blue sky, and looked at the assortment of flowers, some of which were the same shade as Kai's amazing eyes, she couldn't help wondering about him. What went on around here that would mean he didn't know anything about… well, anything- not even that there were girls.
This was just an abbey, right- a religious place? But why was there blood? Why was Kai hurt? Who did that to him? Who was even capable of doing something like that in the first place? Did he have that knowledge, the knowledge of general facts of life, and it was taken away from him? Or had he never learnt it?
She felt cold all of a sudden, a shiver ran down her spine and she attempted to warm herself up by rubbing her arms.
Not wanting to sit out here any longer; her musings had spoilt her pleasure of the little garden.
Wandering back inside, her legs took her automatically to Kai's room. Peering around the open door, she noticed the bed was empty. He must be away doing whatever he did all day.
She felt disappointed, it would have been nice to see if he was alright, watch him while he slept, even if he did ask awkward questions she didn't know how to answer, or even if she should, but god knows how she wanted to.
Noticing clothes on the floor, she went in to pick them up and put them on the back of a chair. That done, she headed for the door after turning around, when she heard a noise.
Spinning, her eyes widened at what she saw. Kai was standing in the doorway leading to his en suite, towel around his hair which he was drying, obscuring her from his sight. But it didn't hide anything from her eyes. The rest of him was on full display, glistening from his shower, and facing her direction.
"Like what you see?" Kai's voice startled her out of her staring. "Only, you seem to be drooling."
Am not! I thought to myself indignantly. Reaching up, I was mortified when I felt my hand get wet.
"Your turn."
"What?" She asked confused by what Kai had said.
"You've seen mine, now I want to see yours." He grinned, his crimson eyes flashing darker in anticipation.
"No." The girl replied stiffly.
"Hey Kai, are you…"
She spun around at the new voice, only to see some red haired guy she didn't know.
"Wow," he voiced. "What the fuck is that?"
"That is someone who doesn't appreciate being pointed at," she snapped.
"It's a girl," Kai informed him, seemingly proud of his knowledge.
She turned to look at him and experienced a pang of loss when she saw he had wrapped his hair towel around his lower body.
"What's a girl?" The boy cocked his head, turquoise eyes interested.
"I have to explain it again? What's with you guys? Why don't you know anything? Ahh, why don't you fill him in, Kai?"
"Okay", he shrugged, pushing his hair back from his forehead. "Girls are like boys but different. Girls carry babies. Girls and boys have sex."
"Wow! What's sex?" The new boy was now looking eagerly at Kai.
Before he could answer, three other boys appeared at the door.
"Hey guys!" Red waved at them. "Kai's gonna tell me about sex. Boys and girls have it."
The three boys, one big and blond, one tall and with lilac hair, and another shorter boy with darker purple hair, all shuffled in and sat down on the floor by the bed Kai and the girl were sat on, waiting expectantly. The redhead was also on the floor.
Kai gave them a quick rerun on what he had told Tala.
"Yeah, so girls and boys have sex, which makes babies. What happens then?" He asked the only female in the room.
"Then the woman, not the girl, gets pregnant, she illustrated it with her hands. "Over nine months the baby grows inside her…"
"Like a tick!" Exclaimed the short purple haired boy.
"Umm, no, not really. Anyway, this makes the woman's stomach get bigger, until it's really big…"
"Like Seaborg! He's a whale bitbeast," the blond informed her.
"Not quite that big. Anyway, then in the ninth month she gives birth by pushing the baby out."
"Like…"
"I don't want to hear it, I'm sure we all know what you mean." She interrupted the lilac haired boy before he could utter anything more.
"What does a baby look like?" Kai asked.
"Like us but small and sometimes they don't have hair, and they don't have teeth."
"Then how do they eat?" The bluenette asked again.
"The mother feeds her from her body, ummm…" She didn't know quite how to explain it without showing them. Luckily, the boy with red hair was pretty intelligent and worked it out.
"Like a cow!" He gasped, excited. Before the girl knew it, he shoved his face in the place a cow's udders would be.
"I don't see anything!" He wailed.
"Nope. Her udders are up there," Kai said, pointing. "I felt them."
"I want to!" Suddenly, all four boys were fighting to get at the girl.
"Stop it!" She shouted. "I'm not going to let you feel anything, or show you, either," I directed at Kai who shut his mouth on what he was going to say.
"Okay, then." Red said. "What's sex like? What happens in sex?"
"I'm not going to tell you."
"She's going to show me, later." Kai announced.
"Am not. Shouldn't you guys be somewhere, I know I have to work soon."
Reluctantly, everyone but Kai left. "They're a little weird, but…" He shrugged.
"They're so different than you."
"Not really, that's what they're like naturally, when we're in private. We're not meant to show emotions."
After that quiet admission, the girl left.
A/N- okay, I think that went very weird. I hope it wasn't too bad, though. Please let me know.
