The Apprentice Assassin (Complete but editing) MxM

"You want me to what?" Alex cried out in shock as Thomas began rifling through the large wall of exotic spices. "I refuse to do such a dirty thing!"

"Then your food will never be good!" Thomas replied, ignoring the red dust that had started to coat his fingers as he lifted up a small white jar and examined it. "If you want your food to taste good, you need to put some salt in it!" He frowned at the jar then quickly put it down as his towel began to slip. Readjusting it carefully as to keep the stone from falling from his side, he looked over at Alex. "I don't care if you use salt for your alchemy. Salt goes in food too!"

"The hell it does!" Alex retorted with a huff as he began to pace around the spacious kitchen. Thomas paused, growling as his search for the white mineral was paused again by his slipping towel.

"Can I please get back into my suit? This stupid towel keeps slipping, and I have no intention of being naked in your presence again!" Thomas growled as he readjusted the towel again. Looking around the kitchen, Thomas was annoyed with how massive it was. It all seemed so luxurious, the hand-carved rock stove with massive shelves stocked full of exotic looking foods. Alex stopped next to the massive larder and looked Thomas over slowly, looking down at his towel with a glint in his eyes.

"Maybe later, but not right now. I like that towel exactly where it is." Alex explained as he let out a little chuckle and resumed his pacing. "The sexy, yet stupid stranger in only a bath towel wandering around in my home is much more alluring than a hard-shelled man with no personality!"

"Alluring?" Thomas questioned as his cheeks began to burn. "You can't possibly be thinking of trying to seduce me at your age-" He paused as he noticed Alex had paused again and was ogling him once more. "Are you really checking me out, you're checking me out, that's gross, please stop."

"You should take it as a compliment. Not many people know I exist, and those that do don't know a thing about me! But don't get your panties in a bunch. It's not like I can really do anything about my primal desire. As you so politely pointed out, I'm a bit out of the age group for sex. Just because I can't get it up though doesn't mean I can't enjoy the view!"

"You perverted old man!" Thomas growled as he turned around and continued his search for salt, his cheeks began to burn hotter. "Now where the hell do you keep your salt? If you ever want your food to taste good, you need to have salt!" A deep feeling of unease began to form in the pit of his stomach as silence answered him. Discomfort broke his focus as he continued to feel Alex's eyes on his body. "Take a picture, it will last longer!" He exclaimed, standing up straight and turning around to glare at him. As he turned, his towel slid from it's loosely held position and dropped to the ground. The rock slid away, and the room became solid rock. All he could see was stone around him as he dropped to his knees.

"Looking good," Alex whistled out as Thomas frantically reached for the towel and covered himself once more. "I mean I already saw what I'll be getting one of these days when I pulled you from your armor, but if that wasn't a nice reminder I don't know what is!"

"Shut up!" Thomas commanded as he began to look for the disk that was now invisible to him. "You're just creepy, you know that?" He stated as his cheeks burned hotter than they ever had before. "You say I have to stay here, but refuse to let me have my clothing back. Giving me only a towel to try and cover myself, while you wear a whole robe, talk about creepy! If I find you have cameras around here somewhere, I'll kill you! I don't care if there are landmines out there!"

"Would it be better if I took my robe off?" Alex questioned from inside the rock as he watched Thomas frantically search for the stone. "I mean it would only be fair for me to be mostly naked too right? I mean my balls may swing around, but-"
