You've kept confiding on Zuemy ever since then. It's hard to tell if you've made any progress, on the one hand, she's explained it in simple, logical terms how these things are natural and aren't wrong in the moral sense as long as one doesn't act recklessly upon those desires, if exercised with a willing, consenting partner, there would be no problem. The fact that she pretty much suggested you should go with Lillian for these things bothered you, you didn't want to egg her on any further.
The next thing Zuemy suggested was to try and condition yourself to get turned off by girls' butts, but even this felt too radical a change, you didn't want to be completely disgusted by them, you just wanted to feel nothing, or barely anything, mostly for the sake of keeping your raging hormones in check.
Plus, it'd mean you wouldn't even enjoy Jen's much anymore, and that was a price you were hesitant to pay. Despite that, you eventually ended up accepting and a very reluctant Zuemy put you through the treatment she had devised. However, it all resulted in ultimate failure, much to your chagrin but to her own relief.
"At this point I don't think we can really erase that preference from your brain unless we physically messed with it... which I'm NOT doing by any means" She said, her annoyed huff hid her inner relief.
"Yeah, I agree, I wouldn't want to get lobotomized either" You said, scratching your head.
"You're doing fine. Nobody I know thinks you're a pervert"
"Tell that to my lower body" You said with a defeated tone "Baggy pants aren't really my style and they won't save me forever"
"Well, I could sit on your lap and cover it up for you if it comes to that" Zuemy said with a cheeky grin.
"Zuemy, please" You facepalmed "We both know I can't let the other girls see me like that and you're not helping"
"I think all of our friends are very much aware that you're a guy, a healthy one at that" Zuemy giggled.
"Really, you shouldn't be so ashamed. I mean, you know we have stuff of our own to deal with on a monthly basis and it's not such a big deal either. It can be embarrassing? Yes, but it's still a thing that's part of us being human"
Having these talks with Zuemy brought you some measure of inner peace, and maybe you were starting to feel more comfortable in your body over the years, but even now, you felt like it was something not completely under your control and that needed to change, it has been 3 years already and after this school year finishes, you will only have one more year to finally ask Jen out, and you can't allow yourself to make any stupid mistakes while at it.
One day, you had a conversation with your mom where you kept it vague, and officially it was not about yourself, you were just speaking in general terms as far as you were concerned. It was then that she made a suggestion you'd never considered: the Church, she told you that sometimes, spiritual guidance could help people who need something extra to hold onto, something that ordinary people, or even stuff like science can't quite provide.
Now, your religious situation was odd and you were aware of it. Both of your parents are pretty much agnostic, your dad once summarized his belief by quoting an ancient Roman Emperor that said something to the effect of "If there are gods and they're good, they won't care about how devout you were, but about the virtues you lived by. If they're unjust, they're not worth worshipping anyway. And if there are no gods, then you'll still have lived a virtuous life that will be remembered by your loved ones"
Your mom had been raised following the ancient Aztecs' mythology and pantheon, but she knew it was always more about honoring the traditions from her ancestors, though she joked that having a feathered serpent as their main god was cool, and across all stories she knew, the mighty Quetzalcóatl really loved mankind so it wouldn't be so bad to have such a deity as their patron. Your father came from a more traditionalist Christian background, but once again, it was more about honoring the culture and traditions of post colonial Mexico.
As a result of the latter and because of grandma Regina it was that you've attended Church a few times, part of some traditions like the Holy Week and whatnot. But it hadn't struck you as a legitimate source of guidance and counsel, despite seeing it many times in movies, series and many real life stories.
Considering that the chances of there being any religious groups actively following Quetzalcóatl in this day and age in the US of all places was less than zero, the Church was the only other alternative. So, you decided that you'd give it a shot. Who knows, maybe this will be that extra thing you've been missing that will help you get a proper grip.
You made yourself some breakfast, took a shower and did all other necessary morning tasks before retrieving your phone, now at full charge and headed out. The part of the city where the Church was in was about 40 minutes away by foot, plus you felt like the exercise might help you relax as a pre-emptive way to keep your hormones from messing up your thoughts.
As you headed into one of the more bustling parts of the city...
[Paths]
1) You found the church with no issue. As you walked in, it looked different from how you remembered it though. It looked far more ornate and ancient, more like a church that was taken straight out of a medieval story, with an aura of anachronistic elegance to it. The stained glass windows looked really nice, and displayed some impressive scenes from biblical stories even you were familiar with, like that of the Archangel that fought the red dragon with seven heads and cast it out of Heaven.
Numerous gold crosses adorned the walls, and you could also spot various statues of saints and angels. However, the church seemed to be empty otherwise, even though the door was open. You found it odd. Didn't churches have stuff like Mass early in the mornings? It would be strange for the place to be open with nobody around, specially with all these valuable antiques. You kept looking around in hopes of finding the priest...
------
On the way to the church, you go through a large park, akin to a small forest within the city, not unlike New York's Central Park though not quite as large. The temperature is much cooler here, and the shade of the trees makes for a very pleasant environment. The chirping of many kinds of birds also soothes you a bit.
But then, the wind shifts, as if there's a sudden gale. Not powerful enough to blow you back but definitely noticeable, like the sea breeze at the beach. Then, the sky goes dark and you look up in surprise, seeing that the sun got eclipsed. You raised an eyebrow, you didn't hear anything about there being an eclipse today, plus, it happened far too suddenly...
2) A chill ran up your spine as you sensed that there was something off with all of this, and just then, what can only be described as a gigantic, emerald serpentine dragon with feathered wings emerged from the eclipsed sun. Even from so far away in the sky, you got a sense that it was way larger than even a fictional beast like Godzilla. You looked around, wondering how nobody else was panicking, but you found that other than plants and animals and yourself, there was nobody else.
Unable to explain what your eyes were seeing and to make much logical sense of it, the only thing you could do was turn around and book it out of there. You ran for your life like never before. You definitely weren't going to stick around and be part of its menu, but then again it was so massive that it was probably going to aim for some larger group of people. Your best bet was to run into the more forested area and hide among the trees.
3) Someone grabbed you by the forearm and pulled you into the more forested area. Of course, all the red flags in your brain went off at once, but even with the rush of adrenaline enhancing your strength to fight or flee, you found yourself caught by a bear hug that you couldn't break free from. Your eyes widened.
'Holy crap, this person feels stronger than Jordana!' You thought, worried about such a person existing, and even more so about being their target. Your thoughts are too blurry and hazy to properly take in your surroundings, as you keep trying to wiggle free and to push open the arms imprisoning you. You felt that they were rather muscular and bigger than Ariadne's, another worrying fact.
"You done yet?" A deep, but definitely feminine voice was heard. Definitely one you hadn't heard before. But at least it managed you to snap out of your frantic struggling.
"Listen, I don't have anything valuable and my parents don't really have much money" You said, trying again to break free, but the strength boost from the adrenaline spike faded quickly. It was now that you looked at your captor.
It was a very tall girl, possibly taller than Ariadne and Jordana, or at the very least equal to them. Her skin seemed to be a light brown kinda like yours but even lighter. As you had felt before, her arms were pretty beefy looking, befitting of some sort of soldier most likely. Then, you noticed that she had a large chest comparable to Jen's, somewhat smaller but not much, and you were getting pressed into it.
You looked farther down and found that this girl had massive hips and a butt to match, said butt looked much fattier than everything else you'd seen on her. For some reason it reminded you of Jordana's and that thought made you gulp. You then looked back at her face and saw that she had relatively big, round, black eyes reminiscent of your mom's. They had a stern look that softened quickly.
"W-What did you capture me for?" You asked with what courage you had left.
"I needed to stop you from doing something really stupid... sorry I was so rough" The girl said, letting go of you. You noticed that you had been held at least two inches above the ground. Now the real question was, who the hell was this girl?
The next thing Zuemy suggested was to try and condition yourself to get turned off by girls' butts, but even this felt too radical a change, you didn't want to be completely disgusted by them, you just wanted to feel nothing, or barely anything, mostly for the sake of keeping your raging hormones in check.
