Felix

[shannonteverius]

Shannon had had a wonderful day. Any reluctance for attending the African festival had been easily swayed by trying new things and, best of all, walking around in public while openly holding Felix's hand.

He was smiling as they arrived home and could still feel a faint tingle on his tongue from one of their more adventurous food indulgences. As the door closed behind them, he turned, taking hold of Felix's collar, and pulled him down for a kiss. The sensation and strange flavors mingled deliciously with the familiar taste of his lover.

"Join me in the shower?" he asked when their lips parted.

Felix moaned helplessly, a much less controlled and contained sound than he typically allowed himself in bed. This side of Shannon, so generous and so curious, both tempted him and left him breathless, panting and flushed with a heat that filled up his heart and tangled his tongue.

"Darling..." He choked back a reassurance that Shannon didn't have to, letting himself surrender the choice to Shannon. "If you continue... I'll..."

[shannonteverius]

Shannon heard Felix's warning and knew he had a choice to make. He was sure it wouldn't taste terrible but...could he do it?

Shannon's gaze flicked up to Felix's face. His lover had fallen apart spectacularly, and it was all because of him. He wanted to see more of it and knew the best way to do so would be go stay where he was. Inhaling deeply through his nose he turned his attention back to his task.

Powers, let him not fail at this.

[harrowgate]

It was all the warning he could manage before Felix utterly lost the ability to form coherent speech. His hands found Shannon's shoulders, cool and perfect as alabaster, and clung to him longingly as his pleasure swelled and crested. A sharp gasp warned of his climax only a moment before his back arched and he shuddered a sweet groan of pleasure. His cock spilled in a hot rush, a heavy blend of salt and sweet, each trembling wave summoning a weaker moan of pleasure.

Panting, he dropped back into the sheets and pillows, breathless after such a swift and sudden, and deeply satisfying orgasm.

The rush of Felix's release was more than Shannon had prepared himself for. He half choked as the flood filled his mouth and continued down his unprotected throat. He sat up, coughing, but kept his lips tightly closed, unwilling to let liquid dribble down his chin like an infant. When he felt like he wouldn't suffocate, he swallowed and took a deep breath to fill his lungs with air. His hand was still loosely wrapped around Felix's member and both were wet with come. A part of him felt embarrassed that he hadn't been able to end his task successfully, but he had swallowed some of it. Less than a year ago he would never had imagined doing that, for anyone.

Gently, he let go of Felix and rose from the bed. In the bathroom he washed his hands and rinsed his mouth with water. He dampened a towel for Felix and returned to the bedroom. Shannon smiled at the sight of his lover completely disheveled among the bedclothes. Felix looked boneless and beautiful. Shannon was sad he hadn't paid closer attention while Felix had come. Perhaps another time. Maybe.

He slid onto the bed pressing his body close to Felix's side. "I believe I deserve some token of appreciation for my efforts," he said, his voice lightly teasing. More than deserve, Shannon wanted some acknowledgement that Felix's state of bliss really was of Shannon's doing and he hadn't failed.

Felix had barely caught his breath when Shannon returned. For a few moments, too drained and breathless to do anything but lie where his lover had left him, Felix had wondered if Shannon had departed so quietly out of disgust or distaste. Only when he returned, warm and smiling and golden as the sun, was Felix reassured.

He melted against Shannon, reaching for him, aching to be wound up again in his arms. Sheets whispered against his skin as he half turned and drew Shannon to him, his mouth turned up to be kissed, his eyes sultry and longing. "Oh, my darling," Felix breathed, "I was just going to ask why you aren't inside me already. Please, darling..."

[shannonteverius]

Felix had never asked like that before. Shannon was awed by the request, and his heart ached because of it. He sealed Felix's mouth with his own and poured into the kiss his desire and his need to possess the man he held in his arms. When he slid between Felix's legs it was like a dream. They moved together in a familiar dance that seemed all the more beautiful for its harmony. Shannon's breath left in a rush when he slid into the heat of Felix's body, but he never stopped kissing his lover. Limbs entwined, they clung to each other until panting breath made oxygen necessary, and Shannon's hips ran of their own accord to orgasm. Shannon came with a soft groan and collapsed in a rush of bliss and weakness, yet he still held Felix close.

Shannon's passion, his mouth, the driving heat of his body... it was all exactly what Felix had wanted. Knowing that Shannon desired him still, found pleasure in him and his body still, was exactly what Felix needed. This new experience had been a process of discovery and trust for both of them, but when Shannon claimed him again, Felix knew that nothing had changed. Nothing vital. Nothing important.

Except... perhaps after Shannon dropped against him, and Felix shivered with a pleasure that had nothing to do with orgasm and everything to do with the man in his arms, one thing had changed. An aching warmth had taken root in his chest, quite unlike anything Felix had felt in more years than he could remember. He closed his eyes, his hands that had clutched Shannon's back as they made love softening, fingers slipping to stroke Shannon's hair. Whatever this feeling was, it tempted him to the core, more addicting than any drug Felix had known.

They lay for a while together, enjoying the simple pleasure of each other's company. Eventually, Shannon remembered the towel he had brought to clean Felix up with. It was lost somewhere on the bed and useless.

"We're going to need another shower," he whispered. His eyes were closed, his face buried against Felix's neck. He made no indication that this position would be changing any time soon.

[harrowgate]

"I don't want to," Felix answered drowsily, no matter that they were beginning to glue together over long lingering minutes. His legs were still loosely draped around Shannon's hips, his body open and vulnerable. Trusting. "I don't intend to let you go."

[shannonteverius]

The words warmed Shannon to his core, and he smiled. "Ever?" he asked.

[harrowgate]

Felix could hear the smile on Shannon's lips, even if he could not see it. He touched a kiss to the top of the blond head tucked against his neck. "Not ever, if that's your wish," he murmured softly, as if almost afraid of his own honesty.

[shannonteverius]

"It is," Shannon said, softly, but there was confidence in the words.

[harrowgate]

Felix's arms tightened around Shannon for a long moment, before his body relaxed and settled more comfortably, in case basking eventually became sleep. But he did not release Shannon, not as long as Shannon stayed in his arms.
