Not Alone
Item: Letter from unknown source to Demetri Blake
Warnings: NC-17
Open to: narrative, but open if someone wants to find him





Details are late and you have missed your drop. Perhaps you should focus on what you need to rather than spend time at the "theatre". If you do not deliver news at the prementioned location by 1pm Friday, perhaps your distractions will need to be removed. Do not trifle with this; you do know the consequences of your actions.



Demetri crumpled up the note and tossed it over his desk. This was becoming unbearable. He was lying to his family, his friends, and now Nell, maybe even the Bridge Theatre was in danger. He sighed as he stood and went to the window. If only he knew who he was dealing with, he would take care of them himself. But he knew the threats were real. The question was, did he warn those at the theatre... did he tell Harry of the danger. Doing that would likely mean he'd have to tell him why and he couldn't do that.

What scared him most was that he was being followed. Who know how far they reached and exactly how much they DID follow him. Perhaps staying at Blake Estate wouldn't be a terribly bad idea. Christopher could take care of himself, and he dare say so could Lucas, but he would always be there to protect Olivia.

He leaned against the window and glanced out. He needed help to do what he wanted to do but he also just needed help in general. The question remained just who could he trust.

Nell smiled, more than delighted that Harry was willing to wait inside for a change. He followed Demetri, glancing to check that he would be allowed something before he asked.

"I wouldn't mind a small glass of brandy"

Demetri walked over to the cabinet and retrieved two bottles and three glasses of appropriate size. "I just so happen to have a very good bottle of 18 year old Scotch," he said as he poured some for Harry, "and a good bottle of Brandy that I believe Nell will like too," he said, pouring himself some of the Scotch and bringing Harry and Nell their drinks.

He smiled and motioned for them to sit. "Please sit down. If there is anything further I can get you, please don't hesitate to ask." There. Good, casual talking. Nothing bad about that. Company was good and he could deal with the letter and his 'acquaintance at a later time.

"I've heard that you're looking to expand the repetoire of your theatre Mr. Fisher. What sort of plays are you looking to add?"

"Only the Classics, Mr Alexandre. Shakespeare, Marlow. Perhaps later in the year, if the boy's continue to do so well, we'll move onto other plays. There are several young playwrights popular enough in London at the moment, and I've been considering buying a script, if a suitable one comes along." Harry replies as he takes the glass, murmuring a thank you.

"You do not have to worry about entertaining me, Mr Alexandre. Nell is here, after all, at your request." He said, wondering if they had simply been invited because the young man was lacking in company, and not the sort of company the boys usually supplied.

Nell clutched at his glass, taking a small sip from it and watching the two men talking together.

"And I'm going to be the star, aren't I, Harry?" He said, wanting to be included a little in their conversation although he knew he really should stay quite when Harry was discussing business with clients, even if it was only about the plays the boy's performed. "We did a new play for a party in the country. It was very sad. I had to die, shot in a duel."

"It is no bother I assure you." Demetri smiled at them both but Harry was right. They only had a short time together.

"I have no doubt you'll be the star for a long time to come Nell," he said, taking another sip from his drink. "I'm sure your death was glorious as well." He turned attention to Harry. "We will go now I think but please feel free to make yourself comfortable. Anna is in the kitchen should you desire more refreshments, and my library is 2nd door behind you should want to relax in there."

Demetri stood up and smiled at Nell. "Shall we go then?"

"I'm sure that I will manage very well, Mr Alexandre." Harry assures, reaching into his jacket to pull out a thin volume, opening it and unfolding the corner of the page that had kept it marked. He smiled slightly, and nodded to Nell, waiting for both of them to leave the room before turning back to his book. Within a few minutes he would be alone and unwatched, and he would be able to poke about the man's rooms as much as he liked.

Nell finished his drink, setting down the glass and he stood, taking hold of Demetri's arm and smiling at him.
"Yes, I think we should." He said, nodding back to Harry.

After seeing Harry get comfortable, Demetri smiled at Nell as he finished his drink off. He led the young boy through the room to the stairs as they moved up to the 2nd floor.

"I'm glad you were able to come tonight Nell. Though with the shorten time, would you think it bad of me if I said we should skip dinner; save it for next time?" He paused for a moment, thinking of Harry downstairs and feeling somewhat strange about him waiting but the thoughts left almost as fast as they came.

He pushed open the door his room and led Nell inside. It was a big room with a Queen sized bed dominated it. It was coloured in various shades of blue with black and silver trim and accents.

He pulled away from Nell and smiled. "I have a present for you. That's allowed right. I'm don't want to get you into trouble." Demetri moved to his dresser and picked up a small package that was wrapped neatly, containing the dramatic works of William Shakespeare. He took it down and handed it to Nell.

"Not bad of you, no." Nell said, "It's your time and you can decided how we spend it, and there is always next time."

"A present?" He said, holding his hands out eagerly. "Oh, we're allowed them yes." He took the wrapped package and tore it open, trying not to show his surprise. "A book?" He was used to presents that were more frivolous things - jewellery and sweet-treats and scented oils, and then another thought struck him. Suppose Demetri thought him educated and had presented him with a gift befitting that understanding. "Thank you. It's a lovely present." He said, clasping it too him, afraid now Demetri would question him on it when Nell could not even read the title.

"Good I'm glad, and yes of course, always next time. It will be a marvelous dinner, to make up for tonight."

Demetri watched him open the present. Nell seemed excited at first and thanked him in kind but he thought Nell would have been more excited considering what they had planned for the theatre.

And then a thought crossed his mind and he felt more the fool and he frowned. He should have asked or thought more on what would have been appropriate. "Nell," he said softly. "You can't read what it is... can you?"

Nell glanced up, face a mask of shock and he hurried to explain.

"No, sir, but please don't think ill of me for it. I am trying to better myself, sir. Harry has got me lessons with a fine lady who comes to teach me but I've only had one so far. Please don't dislike me because of it." He said, quite distraught over it.

"I understand if you'd rather a different boy." He said, looking down at the book again. What could it be? Poetry? A novella? Had Demetri planned for Nell to read something to him. He knew there were books about the sort of things he did, and that some of the clients of other boys, boys like Robin who'd been educated, liked to have those things read to them as entertainment and to entice them to pleasures later. Had Demetri planned that for tonight and Nell had spoilt it because of his stupidity.

Demetri's face softened as Nell seemed to panic. "Oh no my dear boy. I do not think worse of you for this. It is I who am sorry for making you feel so. It was my own fault for assuming something like this." He reached out and stroked Nell's hair before guiding him over to the bed a sitting down as he motioned for Nell to do the same.

"First as for a different boy, put that thought out of your head. You are bettering yourself and that is commendable. And you will have this as reward when you succeed."

He hated that he'd made Nell so upset. "It's just a silly book of Shakespeare Nell. Please don't be upset. I promise it's alright." Demetri leaned closer to Nell and kissed him softly. "Don't be angry at me for being so thoughtless."

Demetri smiled and kissed Nell again. "I admit that was the idea, plus I thought you'd like to have the other ones that you don't perform too. They're all very good."

Perhaps it was his mother's doing or maybe it was just him on his own, but Demetri really did feel bad. It didn't cross his mind that Nell's feelings didn't matter just because of what he did. Too many had been hurt by Demetri's actions; he didn't relish adding another.

He smiled at Nell. "I'm no where near as good an actor as you but maybe... if you don't mind... maybe I could read them to you. I did a fair some in school and then you'd still be able to hear them."

"I would." Nell said, brushing his hand quickly across his eyes. "Harry said we could help choose what we performed, but I keep getting left behind because some of the other boys - they come from good backgrounds, they know this stuff already- and they just run away with it."

"I'd love for you to read them to me, I'm sure you've a very good actor." Nell said, smiling back warmly and offering the book to Demetri.

Demetri kissed him one last time, and smiled. "I'd like to very much too. And this way, you can know as much as the other boys and won't they be surprised."

He took the book back, almost looking embarrassed. "I don't know. I did fairly well back in the day I wager." Demetri moved back against the headboard and gestured for Nell. "Do you want me to start reading some now? Do you have a favourite?"

Nell crawled up on the bed, settling next to Demetri and curling into his side, looking up at him sweetly.
"No, I don't have a favourite. What would you like to read? Something romantic maybe?"

He grinned as Nell moved up with him and he was pleased the boy was eager for him to read out of the book. "Hmm well let's see. Macbeth is good but long; well have to save that one," Demetri said with a grin. "Something romantic.... A MidSummer Night's Dream or maybe Much Ado about Nothing? That's one of my favourites."

Nell grinned, cuddling closer still. "Your favourite? You ought to read that one then." He said.

Demetri laughed and flipped through to Much Ado About Nothing. "I should tell you what it is about should I? It takes place in the countryside, and the great Duke is set to arrive, bringing home the victorious soldiers. It has masked revels and dances, and is about false accusations of unfaithfulness, vindication and reunion. There are dark moments but it is a comedy and truly quite funny as well as romantic."

Demetri laughed as he glanced at Nell. "Forgive me, I completely started to ramble there. You must tell me when I do such things."

Nell glanced up at him. "You weren't rambling, were you? I thought you were setting the scene." He said, carefully freeing one of the buttons of Demetri's shirt from its hole.

Grinning, he nodded. "Yes of course, that's what I was doing." Demetri continued on and started with Act I. He was also doing his darned not to be distracted as Nell carefully worked at the buttons on his shirt.

But he continued in earnest, filling Nell's head with the story of Messina, of Don Peter's arrival, and of young Claudio and beautiful Hero. With each new character Demetri tried to change the cadence or accent to make it a more rich reading. In the back of his head he reminded himself that they did only have a brief amount of time and that Harry was waiting to retrieve Nell when the time was up.

But he read slow enough that if Nell had questions, he could do so, not that Demetri wanted to take him away from his task of undoing the buttons on his shirt.

Nell listened intently, laughing at some of the voice Demetri attempted, smiling up at him as he continued undressing him, finishing with his shirt and then moving onto his trousers.

He wiggled down the bed a little way, pulling Demetri's cock free and kissing the head. "And then what happened?" He whispered.

Demetri groaned softly but still moved so Nell could removed his trousers, his shirt unbuttoned and opened. How was he supposed to think and remember how to speak when Nell was doing that to him?

"Next? Oh... oh yes next." He bit his lip for a moment and then continued as Benedict confronted Don Peter and Claudio of Hero's 'death', and the Constable's arrest of Barrachio.

Nell smiled, laughing softly. He bent his head, licking up and down the length of Demetri's cock before he took it in his mouth, moaning softly, tongue vibrating against the underside of his cock.
