[ He watches in tender silence as Alhaitham's expression freezes on his face, as he works through his thoughts for a moment or two longer before he actually succeeds in stopping himselfโ the tension leaves him in the same moment, and Kaveh finds himself smiling as the scribe's head tilts to press a soft kiss against his wrist.
Then Alhaitham lowers himself further, pressing them into a tight embrace, his mouth hard and warm against Kaveh's as he tangles them impossibly closer, their arousals pinned between the both of their bodies. The slight roll of the other's hips brings a sharp moan to Kaveh's lips, and he answers in kind, his breath ragged on his tongue as he tilts his head back from their kiss to blink slowly at the other man.
He wants the other man so much, wants him inside so badly he's practically aching for it. At any other time, he might whine, but with the way Alhaitham is pressed into him, he can't bring himself to complainโ Instead, he shakes his head with a small smile.
They have time. ]
Me neither. [ It's half-whispered, his head tilting to seek Alhaitham's lips with his own once more, mumbling the last of the words between the press of their mouths. ] It's okay to let go.
[ And he lets his hips roll again, not just once this time but over and over, finding a quick rhythm that makes him gasp and moan for each long stroke of his cock against Alhaitham's. ]

[ My mouth, without the otherโs: useless. I long to fill it like a grave.
The words alight in the back of Alhaitham's eyelids, burning through him. Finally, he knows the meaning, he knows exactly what the writer had meant when he presses his lips again and kisses Kaveh like it's water, like it's air. He learns, finally, that the ache he's felt does not dissipate when his longing is reciprocated, it merely sweetens its edges along the line of Alhaitham's lungs, and he'd gladly bleed for it. Kaveh sounds and feels like something sinful and divine all at once underneath him, full-bodied, warm and so alive against him that his hand find the architect's and tangles his fingers through his own.
Alhaitham croons his name between their teeth, his body shifting, his hips gyrating, a leg folding to press closer, harder and he groans and gasps unabashed. He may have saved a god before, but the feverish worship of Kaveh's name is what spills out, it's the only thing he sees.]

[ It's a soft moan that answers each vocalization of his name, Kaveh's mouth too distracted by Alhaitham's, and his brain too clouded with his pleasure to even attempt to find the words. His fingers cling to those that tangle through his, his hips arch and roll, and when the other man folds his leg and brings them closer, the sound he makes is loud, brazen in a way that it would make him color in shame if their friends were still in the house.
Fuckโ he's not going to last long at all; he can already feel the pressure building too quick for him to be happy about
(he doesn't want this to end)
and the fingers of his free hand scrabble at the other's forearm as he sighs into his mouth. ]
Alhโ Alhaitham, Iโ
[ It's as far as he gets before he breaks off with a fresh moan, the heat of his pleasure finding its place over both their abdomens as his orgasm hits, Kaveh sobbing against Alhaitham's mouth as he twitches and shudders under him. ]

[He's lost.
Lost to him, to his sounds, the movement of his hips, the curl of his waist, the parting of his mouth. Alhaitham has lost to his kisses, to the idea that they should have done this properly, and to Kaveh climaxing first. He's lost his own heart to him, his mind to the squeeze of his fingers, his breath to the smell of him as he teeters over the edge and calls out for him.
Swallowing that last cry with a slant of his mouth upon Kaveh's, he holds tight again, unable to let go now that he has him. Alhaitham reaches for him, follows after. He's done this ever since those red eyes peered at him worryingly at the House of Daena. And he will always do it, he can't imagine himself not to. He's the who and the what he's always wanted.
He shivers, loses count of how many breaths he takes. It's quiet but the drumming of their hearts, the tides of their breaths. Alhaitham hasn't felt this peaceful ever.
There's a mess between them but he's not moving. If anything, he only separates long enough to pull a cover over them and tucks Kaveh against him again under the shield of it.]

[ There's nothing more beautiful, Kaveh thinks now and will think again later, than the sound of Alhaitham calling for him, voice cutting through whatever fog has taken the most of his thoughts, ringing in his ears like the sweetest of musics. Each desperate movement of the other's lips is met in kind, and in the same way that has had them going around in circles for years, Kaveh follows Alhaitham, who in turn follows along after him.
Only this time, it's so much nicer.
In the moments after, Kaveh's eyes flutter half-closed, breathing in the scents left all over the roomโ their sweat, the last remnants of the wine on their breaths, the heady musk of sex still clinging to their bodiesโ and he hums his content, gratefully accepting at the same time the way Alhaitham tucks him in closer, pulls the blanket over the both of them. ]
I didn't know it could feel this good, [ he murmurs, and his body is tired but as his mind comes down from its high, it's already wondering how much better the real thing would feel, with him, with them like this. ] You're amazing, Alhaitham.

Uh...
[ Damnit. He's not the wordsmith of the group... ]
Grow?
[ Damnit. He's not the wordsmith of the group... ]
Grow?
Good! For surely, everything will grow! See how that just makes it so much easier?
[She said with a giggle.]
I think you're much better at this than you think.
[She said with a giggle.]
I think you're much better at this than you think.
[Nose burying in those golden locks, Alhaitham breathes in gently, a deep, slow, chest-expanding breath as he takes in Kaveh's scent. His eyes open a mere increment as he watches him snuggle close, murmur all these sweet nothings as he's riding down the tides of their climax. He almost starts shaking his head, but instead, he settles back with his eyes closed, knuckles brushing along the line of the architect's bicep.] Hm? I don't think I heard you.
[ Under any other circumstances, Kaveh would probably be annoyed, maybe get in Alhaitham's face and complain audibly about the request to speak his praise over again. But with how content he is right now, he can only find it in him to smile, to nuzzle his face into the hollow between the other's neck and his shoulder, pressing soft kisses into the skin. ]
I said you're amazing.
[ He pulls back just enough that he can peer up at him with gleaming red eyes. ]

[ He pulls back just enough that he can peer up at him with gleaming red eyes. ]
[He's waiting for a harrumph, for a slight impatient tremble, and Kaveh's hackles slightly raised. He's waiting for a nip, a roll of his eyes, a huff, a slap on his shoulders to tell him he's terrible.
He gets none of that. The genius of this man still manages to surprise him. He tells him he's amazing, and Alhaitham does nothing, thinks nothing, except blink, for half a moment (0.0345 seconds, to be exact) as he peers at the stars peeking through that red canopy and he leans in to steal a kiss from him. But not without ordering a 'shush', his eyebrows slanting into a frown. He doesn't want to hear it again.]

[ Kaveh just stares at her. ]
Wait, so we've gone from singing together to making up songs? Director Hu, you're expecting an awful lot of out me...
[ The good thing, perhaps, is that he hasn't thought about his troubles.
...Because he has so many new ones. ]

[ Kaveh can't help but chuckle into that stolen kiss, fingers contentedly tracing their way over Alhaitham's shoulders, the tops of those muscled arms, the slim line of his strong neck. There may be a hint of a frown on the other's face, but he can't quite help the way he murmurs it again, complete with the gentlest of teasing nips against his lower lip: ]
Really. You're amazing. I'm not just saying it to inflate your ego.
[ He lets one hand stroke down over the other's spine, following the path of the bone and dipping into the small of his back before moving lower to trace idle patterns into the soft, modest swell of his ass. ]
We didn't even actually have sex, and it was better than anything I've ever had before.

[A shiver rakes up his body, ignited by the trail of warmth of Kaveh's hand on his skin. Even underneath the covers, the heat of their flustered bodies encased between them and the fabric, Alhaitham feels raw and still very sensitive. The slant of his eyebrows deepens, a weakened glare into Kaveh's eyes the only thing he says before he kisses him again, deep enough to keep his mouth busy, his hand cradling his cheek and tugging at his ear as though admonishing him for teasing him like this.]
You make it sound like it's a bad thing. There is nothing wrong with that.
[Because c'mon! Let's be dramatic and do something random!!]
[Because c'mon! Let's be dramatic and do something random!!]
[ Kaveh yelps at the tug on his ear, and pulls back from the kiss for a momentโ and doing so reveals to him the flush along Alhaitham's, the heated evidence of his embarrassment. The blonde smiles, and leans back to kiss him once more, fingers taking a hold of the other's ass to tug him closer, a sigh on his lips as he does. He's sensitive too, and the movement brings a soft whine to his lips a moment later as it nudges his cock into his lover's. ]
S-Sorry. [ It's half-mumbled, half-panted into the kiss, his grip softening and his fingers smoothing up to the small of his back once more, as if to give them both a reprieve. ] Got a little carried away.

[Kaveh may find half of Alhaitham's face hidden by the pillow that holds both of their heads, his face scrunched in a blend of aches so pleasurable it may actually sting. He shakes his head, letting out a rattling breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding from how he had gasped before. His eyes open just enough to know where to lean into to capture Kaveh's lips again, and his legs tangle tight until Kaveh could be almost sitting on one of Alhaitham's thighs.] Don't. [He kisses the corner of his mouth.] You can get carried away with me.
[ Alhaitham speaks, and Kaveh shakes his head, a soft and helpless laugh on his lips as he purses them against that soft kiss, a protest even as he accepts the movement and twines his own legs in return, half-seated against the other despite the fact that they're lying tangled together. ]
Don't say that. [ The words come as a whisper, followed by a soft nip of his teeth against Alhaitham's lower lip. ] Because I want toโ
[ How is it, he wonders, that he's still practically aching with need despite the afterglow still settling heavy in his veins? His nerve endings are sensitive and sore, but he wants more. ]

[Reciprocating with a nip of his own on Kaveh's upper lip, Alhaitham sighs and brushes Kaveh's hair away from his face.] So? I don't see why you shouldn't.
[He runs a hand up his side, stroking the skin only, from waist, to the underarm, across his chest. Soft caresses as he leans in for another kiss, though he frowns a bit, revealing that he indeed, is not that experienced in this and therefore should refer to the one person who is.] Isn't it normal?

[ Kaveh chuckles, although it's a tired, almost whiny sound. He can see the hesitation on Alhaitham's face though, and so his own expression softens as he reaches up to brush his fingers along the other's lips. ]
Aren't you sensitive? [ It's a soft murmur. ] It'll hurt if we get carried away so soon.
[ Not that he thinks he would mind, not reallyโ but he doesn't think Alhaitham would enjoy it, somehow. He sighs, and nuzzles his nose into the other man's, his eyes closing. ]
But I want you. I still wantโ mm.

I have no idea where I'm meant to start.
[ Never mind that he made a rhyme just a few moments ago. ]
I'm not much of a wordsmith.

[She said before clearing her throat.]
See, I'll give you an example!
For we need to be ample
As I am giving you a sample!

I am. [He closes his eyes, melting into the Architect, and if the pressing of their bodies together makes him wince as he cradles him close, then he doesn't flinch away, focusing instead on returning the motion of his nose, from one side to the other, then up and down with a low, rumbly hum.] I know. I want you, too.
One step at a time, [to create a plan is surprisingly easy in the afterglow, his mind so much clearer, he could get up and write his best thesis.] For now I want to keep kissing you and keep you here, and we'll take it slow. Does that sound good?

[ Kaveh hums in response, and listens through his own haze to Alhaitham's plan, relieved that apparently the other man does his best thinking in the afterglowโ because he to the contrary is floaty and dreamy and nice and probably couldn't formulate a plan to save his own life.
So he nods, and purses his lips into the other man's once more, pressing lazy kisses against his mouth as his hands drift over his chest. ]
Sounds great. You can keep me here as long as you like.
[ Never mind that this is his bed. As far as he's concerned, he'll stay wrapped up like this forever if he can. ]

[ Never mind that this is his bed. As far as he's concerned, he'll stay wrapped up like this forever if he can. ]
[Carding fingers through long threads and sighing as he kisses back, Alhaitham relaxes in his place on this bed that smells of Kaveh, fragrant and heady and home. His eyes close, softened by the slow to and fro of their lips, suckling on the thin flushed skin, taking a deep breath to nudge his chest further into Kaveh's touch. He tells him that he could keep him there as much as he'd like, but the problem is that Alhaitham is finding solace in the circle of their arms, the warmth of their bodies. He's still kissing, his voice low and raspy, as he smiles subtly.] That's a problem, I may want to stay here longer than you'd like.
[ Kaveh just chuckles, the sound sweet on his tongue. It's true that of the pair of them, Alhaitham is much more likely to lie around in bed for a longer timeโ and he'll almost certainly complain about it when it happens. But right now, the thought of being essentially trapped even past the point where he'd want to get up...
It's nice. More than nice. And later, when the tendrils of anxiety and disbelief undoubtedly creep in, he'll need to remember this, to hold onto Alhaitham's words.
For now, though, he continues to respond to those kisses, to enjoy the feeling of the other's muscles under his fingers, a gentle skimming brush of the tips over one nipple, and then the other. ]
So we'll stay here. That's fine, Haitham.
