This is a new story. For those who want me to finish New Family Position, so do I! I have tried several next chapters and keep getting blocked, for that I apologize. I wrote this hoping it would kick start me into action on other stories. Hope you enjoy.
Eric just turned 19 and started his senior year in high school. He had undergone some remarkable changes in the last year, and he was still figuring out how to deal with them. Up until a year ago, he had been sort of a quiet, keep to himself kid. He had friends and even a girlfriend or two, but certainly wasn't considered a popular kid or well known around the school. He was academically gifted, and he had already taken college level courses on his way to his goal of becoming a doctor. He actually had all of his high school credits done and was taking college level courses through a special program. His mom did not want him to rush to college and until recently, he had not been in any hurry.
His world consisted of his mom, Carol, his older sister, Brie, and his school friends. His father had died shortly after his mother was pregnant with him and he never knew him, but his family had been well-taken care of by the financial planning his father done before he died, and his grandparents had always been loving and kind. His father's parents have always been very wealthy, so even though he didn't consider his family "rich" they never went hungry and always had the means for a decent, middle-class life. His mother's parents were local, big operation farmers and had built a pretty impressive legacy of their own.
His family lived in a nice house, though it wasn't extravagant. He and his sister each had their own rooms, and they had a nice pool in the back, again not that unusual for where he lived. His Mom raised the kids well and insisted they be polite, and kind and they genuinely were. Brie was a breath of fresh air in any room she entered, always easy to make friends and pleasant. She was a younger version of her mother with their beautiful black hair and petite but attractive bodies. Brie had been a soccer player and cheerleader in high school, so she was sleek and lean while having a big presence anywhere she went. Brie and Carol were sometimes mistaken as sisters, and they took care of themselves with yoga and regular workouts.
Even though Eric was kind to people and soft-spoken, it was a mistake to think Eric was a pushover, he was very protective of his mother and sister. His grandfathers had insisted he treat them with respect and always instilled in Eric he was the man of the house, even when he was very young. His only temper flares came when he felt his mother and sister were upset or threatened, like when some guys had hassled them at the beach last summer while Eric had gone to get drinks. When he saw the guys chirping at his mother and sister, he had inserted himself without thought. There was some pushing, but the three idiots retreated when they sensed getting with the two hotties, they were hassling weren't worth dealing with Eric.
About a year ago, he started a growth spurt. He went from a pretty average 5' 9" to a muscular 6' 3". He had never been much of an athlete, but he suddenly had muscle, agility and athleticism to go with his dark mop of hair and tanned complexion. There was also a change to his eyes, they had been a sort of hazel but now they had turned to a brilliant blue and sometimes seemed to shine when he concentrated on something.
He played baseball and swam for the school but up until the growth spurt, he had been a pretty average athlete. Now, he seemed to move with a grace that had always eluded him, so he was looking forward to both sports in his senior year. He was starting to get some attention for his attractiveness too. For reasons he couldn't quite understand, people started to act differently around him. People generally seemed to react more positively to him, and girls in school, and even women outside of it, seemed to need to touch him more. He seemed to always get hugs or touches on his arms or back. Nothing overtly sexual, but certainly more intimate than when he was shorter. Even men seemed to give him a little more respect and deferred to him more. Where before he had to move around others and avoid them, people seemed to get out of his way and defer to him anywhere he went.
Eric loved reading and his favorite place in the school was the library. His high school had an unusually large library. A former student, who had hit it big in the financial world endowed a lot of money to building one of the finest high school libraries in the country in addition to enough money to keep adding books. It was better than the city library and maybe even better than the local university's library.
Eric was such a frequent visitor, Mrs. Rachel Williams, the Librarian, allowed him to set himself up in one of the independent study rooms in the back on the upstairs floors. Eric was often tutoring students anyway, so it was a good place to have his "headquarters." All he had to do was return books to shelves every day, which usually only took him a about a half hour and Mrs. Williams let him keep the room. It wasn't like a lot of students spent a lot of time in the other ten rooms they had set aside for independent study. The library had been built before the internet but had been upgraded so students could access a lot of the library online. Eric still preferred the feel of books in his hands.
Eric set up a laptop on the desk and Mrs. Williams let him bring in an old dorm fridge and a large bean bag chair for lounging around. Sometimes, he used it so he could catch a nap in between classes. He could also pull the blinds down if he needed to. He did all his homework and tutoring there. He could even have a friend or two hang out with him in there, as long as it didn't get too loud for Mrs. Williams.
Recently, Eric had found himself going to his little refuge more frequently to nap in between classes, because he seemed to be tired all the time and even feverish lately. During the late summer and into the school year, he was experiencing incidents where he felt warm, and his head was spinning a bit. He felt the need to lay down and when he would awake, he felt better but somehow a little drained even though he napped. He told his mother about it, but she told him it was probably because he was growing so fast. Carol harbored some fears that wasn't what was going on. She was fearful he had inherited something from his father, and she was hoping this would pass. She would always question herself for not doing something more proactive.
Now, on a Friday, several weeks into his senior year, he was beginning to have that feeling of disorientation. He was between classes and was going to go work on the decorations for the Homecoming dance coming up in a couple weeks but decided to head to the headquarters in the library and catch a nap. As he approached the library, the disorientation was getting a little worse and he was glad it was later in the day and the halls were mostly empty, because he felt a little unsteady on his feet.
Mrs. Rachel Williams, the librarian, was 28 and known to be one of the kindest and most helpful faculty members in the school. She was also considered to be the hottest female faculty members, with her blond, shoulder length hair, blue eyes and beautiful face. Fitting of a librarian, she dressed conservatively, and usually kept her hair up in tight bun. She was 5'4" with an athletic figure, kept lean through running, bicycling and frequent trips to the gym for weights or yoga. She had B Cup breasts, but her legs and butt were as fine a feature on any young lady. She liked Eric very much; he was always so polite and helpful. She had an affinity for him because she could relate to being a late bloomer and a bit of a nerd herself when she was growing up. Obviously, she noticed his physical changes, but she had worked at the high school long enough to see kids grow into adults, sometimes seemingly overnight. She hadn't thought of him as anything but the nerdy student she had known the last couple years. She was aware Eric had always had a bit of crush on her, but she knew a lot of the boys at the school crushed on her. It always seemed innocent enough, but she did get a bit of a secret thrill she could still get looks from the students, boys and girls, and many of the faculty as well.
For her, it was such a great stroke of luck to get this job right out of college, the previous librarian having just retired, and she felt she would be perfectly content to work here for a long time. She was married for three years to her high school sweetheart, Thomas (he didn't like to be called Tom). Recently, she was beginning to question whether they were such a good match. Everything had been so perfect dating Thomas through high school and college but now they were in the adult world she was afraid they didn't want the same things out of life. Thomas had studied marketing in college, telling her he had big dreams to be in advertising and sell big products with big celebrities, he just knew he could do what they saw on the internet and Television. After college though, he took a sales job to get his "foot in the door" of a large tech company, but instead of seeking a job more in line with his education, he found he liked the fast pace of sales and had stayed in the job. At first, it seemed to bring him out of his shell and Rachel thought that was good thing, but he had completely seemed to give up his dream to be in marketing, and his personality had started to change. He seemed to be much louder and more boisterous than the boy and man she grew up with. Lately, he seemed to relish business dinners and loud parties much more than doing anything else. She attended some of these events at first, wanting to support him but they often turned into drinking events, and she wasn't fond of his co-workers increasingly lewd behavior, especially to her. Rachel didn't consider herself a prude, but she didn't appreciate the drunken leers or the overt passes of Thomas' sales buddies. They were always the ones that drank too much and would try to put their hands on her in inappropriate ways, sometimes right in front of their wives or girlfriends.
