The Evening After

Alfarinn continued to lay still in the early evening. He would come to that semi awake stage and decide that he was too comfortable and drift back to sleep again. He supposed a part of his mind knew that things had to be done and that part was warring with the side that said he should sleep just a bit longer and that it would all be there for him to deal with when he woke up.

He wondered vaguely if Thaddeus was already awake and waiting on him. A little mischievous voice said that if he was really needed he could be woken up.. which might or might not be difficult to do...depending on how much Alfarinn was enjoying the attempt.

He smiled and drifted off once more.

Thaddeus shifted his weight to allow for Alfarinn to take hold of his other leg as well, quite enjoying the attention given to it until his companion paused once more. He smiled in relief at Alfarinn's response, though there was certainly amusement at the thought of his lover 'interrupting' his work. He brushed his fingertips over Alfarinn's hands as they ran over his thighs, stretching his fingers to reach until they went out of arm's length, and returned his companion's gaze.

[You understand me all too well.]

It was quite possible, in fact, that Alfarinn understood him better than he did, at least when it came to some things. He would have never imagined being comfortable in a position of such vulnerability, held in such a way that Alfarinn could do absolutely -anything- to him...but just the thought aroused him more.

He managed to raise one eyebrow in surprise at his companion's admission and a fleeting thought of just how similar they were crossed his mind.


"You...oh..."Â?

He could not quite recall what it was he had been trying to say, though he imagined it was nothing of great importance. In any case, the words faded to a whimper of pleasure and desire as Alfarinn took him, and he found he was rather lost in the moment, quite thoroughly pulled from his own thoughts.

Alfarinn sighed inwardly in contentment at hearing Thaddeus's murmur of surprise; these little things were something he enjoyed, something to remember later when they were busy doing other things and there in the back of his mind would be the sound of his lover's startled voice.."You..oh"

He leaned back and looked at Thaddeus.


" Was there something you wanted to say?" Alfarinn did his best to look innocent and leaned his head against one of his companion's thighs for a moment.

With a smile, he leaned back down and slowly wrapped his lips around Thaddeus again, moving in slow even strokes while running his hands along the outside of his companion's thighs, lightly up his sides and then back down the center of his chest.

[ You know I rather enjoy your legs up here but I think we do not have the means here for us both to fully enjoy them in this position. ]
Thaddeus Grey 18 years ago
Thaddeus found himself returning Alfarinn's smile, though his was not without some measure of incredulity. His companion simply looked too endearing, leaning against his thigh and smiling in that not-so-innocent way, for Thaddeus to be anything but gently amused.

"Alfarinn..."Â?

Fortunately it seemed more coherence was not expected, which was likely for the best as Thaddeus could hardly conjure a thought beyond just how incredible his companion could make him feel. His toes curled in pleasure as his companion moved steadily against him, and he sighed at Alfarinn's touch as cool hands moved over his skin.

The mental image Alfarinn's remark brought to mind, however, was enough to make him moan softly in wistful pleasure. Who could have predicted that they would be here, in the Manor, instead of at the apartment? He fleetingly wished for just a bit more stability; though in all honesty he was finding the current state of affairs quite delightful, the thought of a more mutually enjoyable situation was deeply appealing.

[I am definitely saving that thought for a later time.]

He let his eyes slide shut at feel of Alfarinn's mouth around him, simply enjoying the achingly slow and infinitely pleasurable sensations for a moment before adding to that thought.

[Not...much later, though.]

He made a further mental note to be more prepared for spontaneity in the future. It was, after all, difficult to tell where they could end up at the end of any given night.

Alfarinn smiled and added one hand to aid him, the other gliding along the outside of one leg and around one firm cheek. He then slid cool fingers lightly across that inviting opening before moving upwards and cupping Thaddeus gently.

[Hmm, I believe you're right.]

He paused at the thought and focused his attention on exploring Thaddeus with his tongue, pushing firmly along the underside, then sliding along the rim and the tip, playing and teasing for a moment before continuing on.

[ There are places in the apartment that have yet to be "explored." We should do that before moving out. ]

Alfarinn chuckled inwardly recalling the image of the both of them against the door and added, for his partner's benefit, his version of its logical conclusion. He then sent his companion the rather enticing image of him on the edge of one of the counters with Alfarinn's head in the same place that it currently rested, and in the room with the computers, sitting in one of the chairs, Thaddeus in his lap, as they saw how aggressive they could get without turning themselves over.

[That's a few things we've yet to try, I'm sure you can add more.]

He admonished himself to quit teasing Thaddeus despite wanting to prolong the experience. Sighing inwardly, Alfarinn moved at a quicker pace. He soon found the movement to be as enjoyable as the slow exploration and closed his eyes in pleasure, focusing on the emotions as well as the sensation of his companion around him.

Thaddeus bit down on his lower lip as Alfarinn's hand joined his mouth, and did his best to keep his now trembling legs more or less in place. His companion's teasing movements were gradually breaking any sense of control, though he certainly did not mind giving that up. His lips parted in silent pleasure, escaping his own willful teeth, when Alfarinn's exploring hand wandered over sensitive skin, touching him intimately before coming to rest.

He took a sharp breath as Alfarinn sent him an imaginative array of images and committed himself to fulfilling each and every one. His perception of that little hole in the wall he had rented out of necessity had certainly changed significantly, and he wondered if, when the time came, he would be willing to give up the apartment, considering all of the good memories associated with it and the potential for more. The thought of even better things in store for them was encouraging, but he felt they would of course need to fully exhaust the apartment's...facilities...before moving on.

[I imagine I can.] He left expanding on 'the list' when Alfarinn graciously increased his pace, deciding additions could be brought to the table (the kitchen table, perhaps...) at any time.

Reaching out to gently take a strand of hair between his fingers, Thaddeus opened his eyes for a moment and watched as Alfarinn moved that talented mouth and hand around him. His companion's eyes were closed and his own soon followed as he sank back into the bed, assured of Alfarinn's enjoyment both through the bond and by his lover's passionate movements and expression. He was, at this point, quite beyond hearing his own moans and sighs or feeling anything past their shared pleasures, which were building by the moment.

Alfarinn smiled inwardly at the hand that found its way to his hair even amidst distraction. Opening his eyes and watching his companion convinced him that this was a sight that he'd never tire of, the man he loved pressed back into the pillow, sighing and moving in pleasure.

He felt himself lucky to be with someone so well suited to the nature of him and hoped he wasn't the only one who felt that way. Thaddeus's public reserve was charming and Alfarinn found it a delight to have someone in his life that was so intriguing in every aspect, they could attend a show, walk in a garden, go to dinner, or simply spend the evening talking about any number of subjects and he would find Thaddeus an incomparable delight to be around in all them. Equally amazing was being together in private to enjoy more intimate experiences that left him captivated with his lover's ability to be so unrestrained and expressive.

He pondered Thaddeus's additional suggestion and decided, with some amusement, that he needed clarification.

[Now would that be on the kitchen table or bent over it, Thaddeus?]

He'd have smirked if he weren't otherwise occupied, wondering which his companion originally imagined.

Focusing back on his current occupation, Alfarinn moved more firmly against Thaddeus. Listening intently to the sounds of his companion, finding them increasingly arousing and more than a little encouraging, making him think it was a shame they didn't have more time to continue their enjoyment of each other. Alfarinn reminded himself that the danger of this situation would be over soon enough and then they would have all the time in the world for nights devoted to no other necessity than fulfilling their least little whim.
Thaddeus Grey 18 years ago
Thaddeus's eyes opened wide of their own accord at Alfarinn's suggestive question, though he was already considering the options. His cheek pressed against the tabletop, soft hair lightly brushing his arms as Alfarinn leaned over him...or the equally compelling image of his lover lifting him on the table in the midst of a passionate kiss and following after him...

The two mental images warred in his mind, each offering their own unique enticements until Thaddeus was forced to conclude that he simply wanted it all. Likely that was decadent greed of the most blatant kind; he found he was quite alright with that.

[I have to choose?] He tilted his head back, managing a slight smirk that turned to a gasp at Alfarinn's movements. [We may just have to make time for both.]

A shameless thought indeed, but he imagined Alfarinn would somehow manage to live with this particular fault. Knowing his companion both understood him and seemed to share his desires was freeing in more ways than one, he found. It no longer seemed so...presumptuous...to think and even share such imaginings with his lover.

It was with such thoughts in mind that his eyes fell closed and he allowed Alfarinn's firm strokes to bring him to the edge. One hand wrapped itself in the blankets as the other continued to stroke Alfarinn's hair, though he rested it flat, fingers splayed, before ecstasy overtook him at last. His head thrown back, consumed by passion and affection and pleasure and far too breathless to speak, he sent instead, softly even in the midst of such intensity.

[My love.]

He opened his eyes slowly upon returning from the heights of unparalleled bliss, his heart resuming a more normal rate. Smiling, he pushed himself onto his elbows and pulled Alfarinn close before relaxing to enjoy the moment of stillness that followed.


"You are wonderful. Thank you."Â?

Alfarinn 18 years ago
Alfarinn found his partner's question both amusing and reassuring, they were both of like mind on the question, as Alfarinn, himself, would not have wanted to choose either. A better choice might have been what to do first, with the assurance that the other option would soon follow.

[I don't believe I have it in me to make you choose, especially not when I would prefer to do both myself.]

He wrapped his arms back around Thaddeus's legs and worked his mouth gently against his companion as Thaddeus shuddered with pleasure and release. His partner's endearment warmed his heart and Alfarinn was all too ready to hold him close when Thaddeus pulled him to him. Laying his head on his lover's chest a moment, he smiled contentedly.

[Beloved]

Eventually Alfarinn leaned up and watched his companion, who looked relaxed and content and he couldn't help but grin. Stroking his fingers gently through Thaddeus's hair, Alfarinn felt compelled to comment.

[Hmm, it appears I didn't much wake you after all. I might have to try again.]

He smiled at the thought and laid his head back down, nuzzling against his lover's shoulder with a fulfilled sigh.


((OOC: Ah! Forgive us our follies. What were we thinking?!?! ))

Thaddeus rested his cheek on the top of Alfarinn's head and ran his hand lazily up and down the well sculpted back beneath long hair. Chuckling at the comment, he kissed Alfarinn's forehead at the hairline before giving his lover a gentle squeeze.

"You tempt me terribly you know."Â?

He entertained the idea of getting out of bed and starting on the many tasks that would make up their day. Once again, he weighed his options; move and face whatever might be in store for them today, or stay in bed with his love a bit longer.

Fortunately, this decision was quite a bit easier than the previous one. He shifted his weight enough to be able to meet Alfarinn's eyes, smiling softly.


"I could quite happily spend the rest of the night in this bed, with you."Â? He leaned in to kiss smooth lips before continuing. "It is quite fortunate we have eternity to look forward to."Â?

His mind helpfully reminded him that he had a psychopathic vampire looking to cut said eternity short. He reasoned that while he would certainly need to do everything he could to stop that from happening, he was not obligated to spend every waking moment in a state of worry when there were in fact limits on what they could do.

He kissed Alfarinn again.
Alfarinn 18 years ago
Alfarinn smiled,resting comfortably, enjoying the gentle touches. He continued to lay where he was for a few moments more.

"Well, I did warn you about my evil ways."

He looked back up at Thaddeus's echo of his own musings and chuckled softly.

"My thoughts exactly. I look forward to more nights of decadent pleasure, and -you-, Mister Grey, still agreed to dance with me."

Alfarinn leaned forward for another lingering kiss, before pulling himself up and off the bed. Turning back, he held his hand out to Thaddeus.

"Come, do you think we can behave in the shower?"

He personally had his doubts.
Thaddeus Grey 18 years ago
Thaddeus's mouth curved into a smile as he took the offered hand and climbed out of bed. There was, in fact, quite a lot they had to look forward too.

"I have not forgotten our dance."Â?

He opened the bathroom door and turned to Alfarinn, his gentle smile turning to a smirk as he considered the question at hand.

"I would imagine that depends on your definition of...good behavior."Â?

Walking into the bathroom, Thaddeus turned to the wardrobe and pulled out two terrycloth robes along with a pair of towels and washcloths before turning to the shower. He slid open the door and stepped inside, turning to the showerheads on either side of him and adjusting their settings to a comfortable ambient mist before doing the same to the ones in the back corners.

Of course...those settings could be changed.

He raised the showerhead above him up a few more inches for Alfarinn's sake before stepping back to turn on the water and allow steam fill the small area.

Still smiling, he closed the bathroom door.
