Shannon and Felix - Morning after

[shannonteverius]

Sunlight filtered into the bedroom, dancing over the sleeping blond in the bed and making his golden hair shine. The scene was picturesque, like a fairy tale before the spell of sleep was broken. Even the sleeper was resistant to the pull of morning but eventually he stretched and admitted defeat. His body felt rested and he smiled, enjoying the feeling.

A few delicious aches in his movements brought his thoughts back to the previous evening and he remembered the stranger, Thomas, and what they had done together. Never in his life would he have imagined being in a bed with two men. It had been novel and fun but it was so unlike him. Felix seemed to have enjoyed it though.

Thoughts of his lover made Shannon reach out, searching for the man who should be sleeping beside him but the space was empty, the sheets cool. With a start his eyes flew open and he searched the room for Felix, finally exhaling when he saw him sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Good morning," he said.

Felix sank, boneless, into the embrace of the their bed, his arms still draped loosely around Shannon's shoulders while he caught his breath. The flood of warmth and relaxation cleared his mind completely, and all he could feel was the welcome, familiar presence of his lover against his side. It was strange, and faintly disorienting for its novelty, but the sensation he'd felt before -- of the two of them growing closer in some way -- rose up stronger than ever within him.

"I'm certainly not," Felix murmured when he had breath to speak again. He didn't know how long this would last, but he wanted to soak it up for as long as he could.

"Oh good," Shannon said and he settled in beside Felix. Then he sighed. "This is why one should always have servants. What are we going to do about breakfast?"

Felix wanted to say that the domestics could go fuck themselves if they thought they would be allowed to see himself and Shannon like this, but he was thankfully feeling too languid to summon the words. Dropping his head close to Shannon's shoulder, he murmured, "I don't care. Find my phone. Order something. If the delivery boy is shocked by us, tip him extra."

"Felix!" Shannon laughed, playfully, tapping Felix on the shoulder. "How scandalous."

[harrowgate]

Felix managed to roll to his side, eyes closed, his cheek just barely touching Shannon's shoulder. He desperately needed to clean himself up. "If you order, I'll put on my dressing gown and answer the door. You needn't place a foot on the floor, darling, I promise," he murmured lazily.

"As long as you hurry back to bed with me, I may be able to accept that," Shannon said. "But I think a washcloth is in order first, don't you?"

[harrowgate]

But Felix did not want to leave the bed, not yet. He did not want to surrender this feeling, this warmth, this private world where he and Shannon were bonded together in the face of anything. Everything.

Not even a new blossom in their relationship was enough to banish his and Shannon's standards of cleanliness, however. Stifling a sigh, Felix pushed himself up on his elbow, kissing Shannon's shoulder lightly as he went. "Don't go anywhere."

[shannonteverius]

"That will not be a problem," Shannon said. He stretched and then settled right back into the delicious warmth of the bed. He had no intention of going anywhere.
