Apotheosis/Dione/Backstory/Touch it with your hands

Your hands, which up until now have laid comfortably on top of your legs, now extend towards his crotch, and as he realizes this, he takes a step back. "You're not allowed to touch", he says.

"Why not?"

"It doesn't feel right."

Oh, feelings this, and feelings that. How about how you feel? Your face turns sour and you crawl a little bit closer to him, backing him against the wall. You grab it, quite roughly as well. Your smooth little hand grabs into it with the similar vigor that newborn babies like to grab into their mother's fingers. It feels soft and fleshy, just like you expected, and it's also pleasantly warm. He jerks backwards, but his legs won't move. You continue to touch it, and you feel it even twitch a little. Ever since he took it out, it has also changed a little, slowly and slightly, almost as if it's getting bigger. No, it IS getting bigger. You can even feel it getting harder in your grip. You can tell that the skin is moving, and you pull on it, first towards yourself, and then, towards him. Tight tip of his forehead moves backwards and exposes the pink head hidden inside. Once again, you've discovered something new about these mysterious organs that boys have. Once again, you're even more curious. But at the same time, when you take a look at Theo's face, you can see he's a little uncomfortable. He's blushing, and he's avoiding eye contact with you. "Have you done enough now?" he asks you, meekly. "Please stop."

"I'm still curious…" you say but pull your hand back regardless. "But if you don't want to… I will stop…"

In the instant he becomes free from your grasp, he hastily pulls his underpants up, and then his trousers as well. "Come on, Dione", he says, as he grabs you by your hand, about to lead you somewhere. "We've spent enough time here. Let's get inside before they get angry at us."

• The very next evening.
