Chapter 2- Puberty

Silas was now 150 years old just starting to grow muscles and his wings. Silas woke up and stood in front of a mirror and nodded with appreciation. Looking back at him was a teenager just starting his journey into adulthood standing at 5"8' with hair resembling his fathers short and silky, but instead of looking like a beautiful night full of stars it's more like overwhelming darkness.

Like staring at it for to long you would be lost to the void. His face matches him perfectly with sharp features, where even statues made of marble would be jealous. His eyes the color of gold are sharp and soft, similar to a predator watching your every move without doing anything. Even his body is growing to match his face perfectly and his angel wings just starting to grow where pure white with black tips.

Silas looks like a perfect young adult ready to face the heavens.

After a while Silas finally decides to stop admiring himself and go downstairs to get something to eat to start his day. Making it down the stairs he sees his parent already up and enjoying each others company by flirting non-stop.

Silas walks towards them with and gives them each a hug and good morning. Talus, and Farah give him a good morning and his mother starts to makes him breakfast. Silas thanks his Mom and sits down next his father. After a while of comfortable silence Talus starts talking. "So Silas how's the start of your advance lessons going?"

Silas closes his eyes and puts on a thoughtful expression. "Hmmm... It's really different than my beginning lessons 40 years ago. Everyone still gives me the same amount of attention but the girls and even some of the guys are looking at me differently than before. It's a weird feeling. It's like they both have fire in their eyes, and they blush whenever I try to talk to them." Silas then opens his eyes and looks at his parents for their opinion.

Farah starts blushing a little matching her face now matching her red hair. Talus smiles at the reaction of his wife. "So it's that time huh." Talus whispered to himself. He then looked towards Silas with a look of resolution "So... I guess it's time to have that kind of talk." Silas looks his father in the eyes and see how serious they are, he straightens up and lets his father continue.

Farah quickly sits next to Talus ready to face this with him. "Ok. Silas since you're entering the puberty age for angels it's time for you to know some things."

Silas nods, giving his full attention. "When a angel gets to a curtain age they experience an increase in their emotions. So that means when they reach this age of puberty every emotion they experience is a lot harder to control... That also includes Lust. Which is what we think your peers are showing you."

Silas thinks back to this morning when he was checking himself out, now that he truly thought about it he has been doing it a lot more recently.

Talus waited a for a bit to let this information sink in. "Silas, it usually isn't a problem for angels when they go though puberty because as angels we can only really feel positive emotions. Like happiness, joy, kindness, and hope. Of course as beings with intelligence we feel all kinds of emotions including the negative ones like hate, sadness, depression, and lastly Lust. Most of these are are fine because it helps us grow. And kind of rare to feel unless it overwhelms our instincts."

After Talus finished Silas was finally beginning to understand what his father was saying. "So that means the looks I'm now being given are apart of the negative side of emotions?" Talus and Farah nod their heads slowly.

"That also means these feeling I've been having are totally normal?" Talus put his hand on Silas's shoulder.

"Yeah, it's normal so anytime you have to talk about these feeling you can come to me and your mother."

Silas thanks his parents and gets up to leave for his lessons. He gives them each a hug and tells them to have a good day. Then Silas leaves and heads towards the Chapel thinking about what he just learned.

He quietly thought to himself as he walked. "I guess that was the sex talk huh? Well whatever I guess, I learned quite a bit about what's happening to my emotions."

He made it to the Chapel where a bunch of young angels are already hanging out. Silas walks over to a male and female angel having a heated conversation. "Morning, Regis, and Amare. I see you guys are still going at each other" Silas said with a laugh.

Regis and Amare both stop to look at the new comer. "Well. Well. Well. Isn't it Silas the man of the hour who was thiiiiiiiis close to showing up late." Regis said with a mocking tone.

Amare continued. "I think someone should get off their high Pegasus and make sure not to show up late." Silas was shocked on how quickly they stopped quarreling to turn on him.

Silas left out a little huff.

Then they all burst out laughing, "Man you guys sure are getting good at ganging up on me." Silas said with tears watering his eyes. He looked at Regis who was really short compared to all the other male angels standing as high as 5"6'. With a face that doesn't lean toward either gender mostly androgynous, and bright blonde hair that goes past his shoulders tied in a ponytail. And sharp green eyes filled with tears at laughing to hard.

Silas then looked at Amare who was the daughter of Cupid, with long pink hair flowing all the way to the ground and a figure the put her a close second to Silas in the beauty department. She has soft features all over her body with dark pink eyes that seem that they can charm you if you look to long. And with a bust that proves she's the daughter of Cupid.

Silas was glad that he has these two friends because they both don't really care about his beauty like everyone else. After laughing at feels like forever the church bells ring and they all head inside looking like the best of friends.
