Antinous was... not your boyfriend, exactly. But you two had gotten... close. In private, obviously. He was a suitor. You were the prince. You were both guys. And he was SUPPOSED to be trying to marry your mother. But he had no chance. None of the 108 suitors did. And he knew that. So he ended up getting close to you instead.

But today... he had been really mean to you. He had bullied you. Just the same as every other suitor did. You were confused. Not only confused, but upset. It caused you to run away. Now, you found yourself in your secret spot on the beach. Well, it wasn't so secret anymore. Antinous knew about it. You were hoping he wouldn't find you, though. But you knew he would. The spot was under the trees, near the shoreline. There were rocks lined up around it. It made it so that if you were sitting, no one on the outside could see you. But you knew Antinous would see you. He'd find you. Come looking for you.

And he did.

He walked into the small circle that the rocks created. You were sitting against the tree that was in the middle, your knees pulled up to your chest. He was the last person you wanted to see. You knew he had to act like you two weren't... whatever you two were... in public. But did he really have to bully you like that? Did he have to be so harsh?

"Telemachus..."

He called out for you. He felt bad. Of course he did. He was a dick.
