Started at the Bus Stop Chapter 35
Percy's visit to meet with Clive's teachers took place a week later than initially planned. The teachers and their assistants all wanted to learn what Percy had done, and they couldn't all get together until then. It was only in the second last week of Bryan's exclusion that Adam took him to Clive's school one evening.
Although the Teacher's Assistant had seen Percy before, she had not said anything because she didn't want to look silly if it turned out that he was not the person who had actually helped Clive get to grips with geometry. There were expressions of surprise or shock on most of the teachers' faces when Adam walked in with Percy.
"Ladies, I'd like to introduce you to Percy. This young man has changed Clive's whole approach to his schoolwork, as no doubt most of you have noticed. How he's done it is a mystery to me, but one that I'm very grateful for. I'll leave it to you to see if you can find out what he's done." Adam then introduced the teachers who were present. Adam had had meetings with each of them in their effort to help Clive.
"Welcome, Percy. Please forgive me for the surprise I must have shown when you walked in. I was not expecting someone so young. I had tried to get Clive to understand the mechanics of geometry for some time, and I believe you helped him to grasp it in just one afternoon. How on earth did you do it?" Clive's main teacher asked.
"To be honest, I don't know. I'm not a teacher, but I have been helping my classmates with problems for as long as I've been in school. Mostly maths because somehow it all just clicks with me," Percy said.
"Perhaps if you walk us through what you did, we'll be able to see it," another teacher suggested.
"Okay, I'll give that a try. We were sitting together at Clive's house, and he said he was really having a problem, so I asked him to show me what he was having a problem with. Then I asked him to show me how he was trying to work it out. I saw straight away that he was tackling the problem from the wrong angle. I then showed him how to look at the whole problem first and from that look for the way it can be solved. I helped him a lot with the first problem that afternoon, showing him how the problem told you what answer you were looking for. From there we worked together on what needed to be done to get to the right answer. Once he had grasped the concept of looking at the whole problem first and then by working backwards finding where to start, he was able to tackle the rest of the problems by himself," Percy explained.
The teachers and Percy had quite an extensive discussion and Percy showed them how had had managed to get Clive to think along different lines to the ones that were confusing him and making it hard for him to understand the processes he needed to use to get to the right answers. This even involved one of the teacher's acting as they knew Clive would and getting Percy to take them through almost line by line.
"I have been teaching geometry at an elementary level for years, and this is the first time I've seen this sort of approach. Thank you. I'm sure that once I've had a little time to work at it myself, I'm going to be able to help most of my pupils to gain confidence in their maths, and with geometry in particular. Thank you so much," Clive's main teacher said.
"That same principle will work for things like physics and chemistry too. Thank you. You will never know how many challenged students will benefit from what you have just shown us. Are you thinking of becoming a teacher when you leave school?" Percy was asked.
"I've had a few thoughts about it lately. Really, I guess, since I met Clive and got to know him. But my leaning is still to get involved in something that requires a lot of maths," Percy said. "I intend reading maths of some sort at university, anyway."
On the way home Adam said, "You really opened their eyes, young man. Did you see the shock on their faces when a teenager walked in to show trained people where they were going wrong? At least they were open to learning from you and saw the value in what you said."
"Yeah, they were surprised, but they were kind too. I guess they couldn't deny the change they've seen in Clive."
"No, especially after asking to meet you. By the way, I've already cleared it with your mother—you're having dinner at our house tonight. My thank you for what you've done. All three of them are busy cooking it, or they'd better be," Adam said and chuckled.
"I've had no problems with the food I've had at yours before. I'm sure I'll enjoy it again tonight. Thank you."
"Then it will be your choice how late you stay. If you want to have me run you home so you can stay a few minutes later, just say so. I'll be happy to do that," Adam told Percy.
"I'm sure it won't come to that. No, you can have a beer and relax. I'm fine to walk home when the time comes," Percy assured Adam.
When they arrived at the Chesterton home Percy hardly had time to get his shoes off in the porch before an excited Clive was wrapping his arms around Percy's middle in a joyous hug. "I'm so glad you're staying for supper. Did my teachers learn anything?"
"I'm sure they learned some very good and important stuff from Percy, young man. Now how about you let go of Percy so he can come into the house properly and get comfortable," Adam said. He was grinning with amusement and joy at seeing how Clive interacted with Percy.
"Thank you for that very nice welcome, Clive. It's good to see you too. Come on, let's go and make sure your brother and sister aren't burning the food." Percy also was smiling at Clive's exuberance.
Clive held Percy's hand and led the way through to the kitchen, where both Juliet and William were busy doing the final preparations for the meal.
"Hi, Percy. How did it go?" Juliet asked, giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Hi, Juliet. It went okay, I think. They were very kind to me, so I don't think they were put off by me being a teenager."
"Hello, lover," William said seductively as he pulled Percy into a hug and glued his lips to Percy's. Percy was not aware that Adam had followed him into the kitchen, thinking he had gone through to the lounge. He still had his back to Adam, and as he and William kissed he slid his hand down William's back and then brought it round to the front to give William's package a squeeze. William quickly pulled his hips backwards, and at the same time Adam gave a gentle cough.
Percy turned to see Adam there and turned bright red. "Sorry, Adam. I should have been more circumspect."
"Yes, perhaps it would be better to keep that sort of thing between just the two of you," Adam said. Then he began to laugh. "The look on your face was just priceless. I guess if you're going to be open about your relationship, the others are going to guess that's happening too."
Adam's comments only served to deepen Percy's embarrassment. "Perhaps I should go home now before I spoil a good evening," he suggested.
"You will not go home now. Apart from the fact that there will not be any food waiting for you at your house, leaving us will spoil what is still a good evening," Adam said. "But perhaps I'd best have a quiet talk with you two. Juliet and Clive, please stay here and keep an eye on the dinner while we have a quick chat." Adam led the two older teens out of the room and into the lounge. It was far enough away from the kitchen for them not to be overheard if they spoke softly.
Once they were all sitting down, Adam began. "I'm guessing you two are not keeping your physical relationship completely private from Clive and Juliet. I'm not surprised. I know all three of my children have been investigating and helping each other out for quite some time now, and I believe you've just added Percy into the mix. If you're comfortable with that, I'm okay with it. Just remember that although Juliet is on the pill, that doesn't mean she's a hundred percent protected and neither does using condoms. So, Percy if you're going to have sex with my daughter, I'd rather you wait until she's older. I don't want a teenage pregnancy to ruin her life, or yours for that matter. And William, as she is your sister, I'm trusting that you and Clive will not even try it. There, now you know what I expect."
"Thanks, Adam. I'm glad you're not yelling and shouting at us. I think if my dad had any interest in me, he would hit the roof. But then he's probably never going to know what I do anyway," Percy said.
"I notice you're not denying the chance of having sex with Juliet?" Adam observed.
"That's because I'm still not entirely sure whether I'm gay or bi. I do know that I get a lot more from looking at guys than I do from looking at girls. But a pretty girl does still turn my head," Percy answered.
"Are you always this honest?" Adam asked.
"No, I don't think so. But with you there's no need to hide, and I don't think I could be happy with myself if I tried to deceive you. You've been so good to me; you deserve better than that."
Throughout the first part of the conversation William had sat silent. His eyes grew wide and his mouth dropped open when Adam said he knew his three children had been enjoying some sexual fun. Now, having got over his initial shock, he needed to find out more. "How did you know what we've been doing?" he asked.
"Actually, I've only been guessing until now. When I saw Percy fondle you in front of Clive and Juliet and neither of them looked shocked, I saw that as a sign I was right. The expression on your face when I said I knew about you three helped confirm my suspicions. And your question is the proof positive," Adam said and smiled.
"He's a devious one, this father of yours," Percy said and chuckled. Adam joined him in the chuckle and when William realised what Percy had meant he too began to laugh.
"You really caught me out that time, Dad," William admitted when he stopped laughing. "So, you really are cool with what we're doing?"
"I'm not sure I'd say I'm cool about it. But I'm also something of a realist. If I told you to stop, would you? I doubt it. You're all at that age when the head between your legs does more thinking than the head on your shoulders. All I'm going to ask is that you all be careful, use protection when you need it, and no forcing anyone to do anything they don't want," Adam told them.
While they were eating their meal, Adam shocked Juliet and Clive by revealing that he knew about their antics and gave them the same conditions. Juliet assured her father that she had no intentions of losing her hymen to someone she wasn't sure she would get married to and that she had told the other three that. Adam said he was pleased to hear that and praised her mature outlook.
After dinner they all moved into the lounge and talked for about half an hour while Adam finished the beer he had started during supper and the others had a cool drink. Adam allowed them some drinking, but he would not allow them to have a beer on a school night. Then Adam said he realised as the old man he was cramping their conversation and that they probably had something they were itching to talk about. He said `goodnight' to each of them and took himself off to shower and get ready for bed.
As soon as Adam was out of earshot, Juliet said, "Wow! Dad obviously sees more than we think he does. That was quite a shock, but I think I'm glad he knows."
"Yeah, it was quite a shock for me too. Dad was quite tricky with it too. He got me to admit it without realising that's what I was doing," William said.
"Do you think Dad wants to join us?" Clive asked.
"No!" Juliet said in surprise. "At least I hope not. I hope that he will find someone he wants to get married to, and I doubt he'd want that sort of relationship with his children getting in the way."
"Well I think your dad was really good about it all and very understanding. You guys are so lucky to have such a neat father," Percy said.
"So, tell us about your visit to the school. Were there any dishy teachers who might steal you away from me?" William asked.
"There are no dishes that I know of that could steal my heart from you," Percy said.
"What, not even me?" Juliet teased.
"You are so much more than a dish. I could never think of you as dishy," Percy replied without actually answering her question.
"Did you go commando?" Clive asked, grinning.
"Where on earth did that question come from?" William asked, also grinning.
"Sometimes some of the other guys come to school without underwear on. Maybe Percy wanted to also," Clive said.
"Although I do like going commando sometimes, I wouldn't dare with a situation like that. What if there was a very dishy guy there and I sprung a boner? How would I hide it?" Percy said.
"What do you like about going commando?" Juliet asked.
"Well, there is the risk factor, although that is more controllable. But mostly I like the freedom my goods have. I enjoy feeling the tip of my cock rubbing against the seam of my trousers or shorts. And sometimes when you bend over and then straighten up your ball bag sticks to the skin between your legs and pulls on it gently as you move. That makes me very aware of everything down there and gives me a thrill."
"But what if you're wearing tight jeans or something? Surely it can't swing about then?" Juliet asked.
"No, it's not as nice going commando in tight clothing. But it still is more comfortable than wearing boxers under the tight clothing. I find boxers tend to get twisted, often with your cock or balls tangled up in the twists. That's not very comfortable at all," Percy said.
"But surely if you're wearing baggy trousers and baggy boxers then that's about the same as going commando?" Juliet asked.
"You'd think so, but that extra layer of material is still quite restricting," Percy said.
"So, you like stuff to be able to move around freely more than being held tightly?" Juliet said.
"Yeah. It keeps you more aware of the favourite part of your body," Percy said. "As it swings from side to side and brushes against the coarse material or a seam it's almost enough to give you a boner."
"Mmm, that gives me an idea. I'll have to think about it a bit and then see if I can do it," Juliet said.
"What idea?" Clive asked.
"You'll have to wait and see. Do you go commando sometimes?" Juliet asked.
"Sometimes. It's quite fun," Clive admitted.
"How about you, William?" Juliet asked.
"Not as much as Percy, but then I don't have someone telling me to," William said.
They continued chatting until it was time for Clive to go to bed. Percy said that he should also head for home because he still had some homework to do. William suggested walking with him, but Percy said that he would then have to walk William home and they could end up going back and forth the whole night. All three of the older ones laughed at that reasoning. Clive was already in the bath and Percy had said his goodnight to him.
Juliet gave Percy another peck on the cheek before she left to go and supervise Clive and make sure he didn't spend too long in the bath. That was her excuse to ensure that William and Percy got some private time together before Percy left.
The two talked between nibbling on each other's tongue and lips for about a quarter of an hour before Percy got his shoes on and left. He walked briskly and got home in a few minutes.
Letting himself in, he went first to his mother's study, greeting her when he found her working at her computer. Grace asked him how the visit to the school went and if he had enjoyed his dinner. Percy spent a few minutes telling her that it had all been nice, and then asked if his father was in his study.
"No. Your father rang to say he had some meeting and it was likely to go on for a long time. He said not to wait up for him," Grace said.
"Oh, okay. I'll say goodnight then," Percy said.
"Yes, okay. Goodnight, Son. I love you," Grace said.
"And I love you too, Mum," Percy responded. He bent and kissed Grace on the cheek and then headed for his own room.
