[Perhaps the one thing that Alhaitham would refrain from ever admitting would be how surprised he is with how affectionate Kaveh is when kissing, searching for the little things on him as an excuse to press his lips to.

(and yet, and yet)

The Scribe shakes his head gently, eyes fond when they open just enough to look at the elation on his cheeks, on the softness of his eyes as he gasps for another laugh. There are no stars in Kaveh's eyes like literature claims there to be when one finds the truth about their feelings being reciprocated, and yet, here he is, still dazed when he finds them, the shade of red to his irises the most stunning he's seen them.

They did say that all artists tend to be in love.

It's enough for him to be distracted until the heel of Kaveh's palm is unmistakable, rubbing through already tight fabric and making his both his hips and his Adam's apple jolt with the sudden realization, his knee canting sideways to give the architect more room, his mouth opening but no sound coming out.

After a second, he leans in to capture Kaveh's ear between his lips, teasing the lobe between his teeth, the edges of his fingers slowly seeping down the waist of his pajamas.

[The groan he releases could blend with a scoff, probably carries half of its dismissal.]

Noโ€ฆ [He presses his mouth to his ear, tilting away just enough to clear his throat, and attempt at filtering the breaks of his voice.] You've neverโ€”[so much for that. That almost sounds like a wheeze.

He wants to tell him, wants to tell Kaveh that he's never once seen him being selfish or too selfish ever, that was Alhaitham's idiosyncrasy, not his. Kaveh who delivers himself over and over until he's scattered too thin for the sake of kindness and rightness, finding purpose in others but never within himself. Maybe he should tell him to be selfish for once in his life, to do of Alhaitham what he well-pleased, to tell him finally, taunt him into action once more. But Alhaitham feels heated, his mouth fumbles on the number of things he could say, even more so because of the alcohol, his mind quicker than his body, and Kaveh's handโ€”and he's always, always been good with his hands andโ€”

Kaveh does end up having his kiss, with Alhaitham's throat releasing what is almost gravel rolling across flooring as protest for his own lack of eloquence. Even if he wants this, he never really expected that he'd be this quickly affected, so taken into the riptide of their heated whispers, the warmth of Kaveh's eyes; there's a crease between his brows deepening as he nips on his roommate's lower lip. The Scribe has wanted this for years, though he rarely ventured into the possibility of the what ifs and what could be's, for his own sake, for the sake of the (apparently elusive to everyone else) heart thrumming underneath his ribs. It should figure, that his tendency to be relatively unphased would be shattered with the delighted hum of Kaveh's throat when he plays with his ear, with the scrape of his nails on his scalp.

A thought comes to mind, within the syrup sweetness of their bodies pressed together, and it spurs him into action. He's not really being selfish, is he?

His fingers cross the threshold of Kaveh's waistband, and wrap around his erection. It takes a bit of surveying, checking length, girth, the surprising softness of that thin skin, the weight of it in the circle of his digits, but when he does shape his hand into a grip, it's firm, determined, and he begins stroking it straight away.
]

Then I should catch up, too. [He purses his mouth chastely against the corner of Kaveh's mouth.] Right, Senior?

[It's the flutter of his nerves like hummingbird wings under his lungs that makes his breath hitch, almost close to a laugh, his lips twitching against that golden silky hair, and he releases a slow, stuttering exhale when Kaveh finally grabs his length and begins stroking him in kind, a reciprocal motion rather than his own and yet perfect.

Alhaitham knows what he knows, what he doesn't know, he knows that there's an even wider extent of what he doesn't know that he doesn't know, and thisโ€ฆ

โ€ฆ he's not sure where it falls into. He's not sure he wants to categorize it yet.

All he does know, is that Kaveh's weight over him makes him feel grounded, attuned to the present and the material, the palpable, in a way that he's never once been. His warmth seeps into his own, and he wonders if the other hears his heartbeat, with how strongly it seems to beat he hears it in his temples.
]

Should I, ah, call you Light of Kshahrewar, instead? [He's insufferable, still, a slight edge of a smile to his teeth as he groans into the side of his head, above his ear. He squeezes the grip on him just slightly when the architect's palm brushes a spot on his underside, and he presses his thumb to mirror on Kaveh's.] Do you like hearing that?

[It's a marvel, really, the utterance of his name half aghast. The slickness wetting and smearing his palm and fingers, the sweet ache in his skin when enamel sinks deeper into it. Alhaitham keeps his eyes open for all of it, capturing the blush on Kaveh's ear, the stutters of his hand and the heavy breathing raising his shoulders and pressing further against his chest.

The curse. It's yet another wonder, that Alhaitham would cause him to react like this. And not out of anger, not out of shock, but of utter delight and not knowing what to do with it.

His breath hitches once the pace increases, and Alhaitham does gasp, unable to stop his lungs from trying to reach for more air. Enough that his chest pangs softly. He's truly never felt like this before.
] Waitโ€”

[He scoots himself higher, pulls Kaveh into another kiss as he grabs the back of his thigh, pulls him with him as he sets his shoulders on the headboard. It feels cold on his heated back. He's probably flushed. He feels flushed. He doesn't care.

He nudges their lips apart as he finalizes a kiss, and then another, and another.
] I'm not a Sage. [He shakes his head, squeezes the round of the architect's rear before sliding his hand up his back.]

[Had Kaveh started to tell him how much of a Sage he could be, Alhaitham would know how to reply. It's not that he doesn't know that he could be a Sage, that he has the skills, the knowledge, the ethos and the reputation for it. But he doesn't want to, not when Acting as one in the interim was a thankless job, but it was more than what he wanted, and more trouble than he could care for. He knows that Kaveh, himself, would be able to become one, possibly even find some sort of fulfilment with it. But there's also the risk of him spreading himself too thin, like the way he keeps kissing him, moans into him, touching Alhaitham and then promptly moving his hands away to draw his trousers low, away from the Scribe and asking silly little questions.

He doesn't answer, not immediately. He merely cradles Kaveh's jaw and kisses that roughness away from his voice, wanting those darkened eyes to flutter closed. He doesn't even wonder if he's looking the same, if his pupils are blown wide, if his voice sounds thick. Merely lets his tongue do the talking as it leisurely curls on the architect's, traces the edge of his teeth.

(He's a very fast learner.)

Eventually, though, even if dazed, he does draw back and shifts his hips to let those pants be tugged off. He doesn't really know what he prefers, he's never really done this with anyone.
]

I don't knowโ€ฆ I prefer you with no clothes, too. [Drunkenness, perhaps, makes him allow for this, tugging at those pajama pants as well. They're a lot easier to move than his own.]

[Kaveh's skin under his fingers keeps changing its texture, from warm and soft to cool and smooth to something he doesn't have the chance to really parse, and he does let out a noise of complaint, wanting to feel more of that under his fingers, moving in only to be interrupted by a few tugs on his erection that do a wonderful job of getting him to gasp, Kaveh looking like the cat that got the cream, andโ€”

Archons, the breath he draws in makes his teeth snap with how rattling it is at the sight of his roommate leaning over to take him into his mouth, and he needs to cover his mouth even if he goes perfectly still, perfectly quiet as though he's afraid of ruining the moment, ruining the heat of Kaveh's breath on his own skin, the way he brackets himself in the cradle of his hips.

He does reach out, eventually, his fingers stroking his hair away from his eyes, tracing the shell of his ear and down his neck, with a whisper.

[He almost doesn't answer, his core is tight as a vice, his legs sitting very still. The back of Alhaitham's head bumps the headboard of the bed, but he doesn't care, not when he's trying his best not to fist his fingers into the bedsheets, not to roll his hips further into the warmth of Kaveh's mouth.

The humming, doesn't help, and the Scribe swallows down something that could may as well be his heartโ€”that's ridiculous, that's no way humanly impossible.

It's only when Kaveh hums again in questioning that he realizes that he had scrunched his eyes shut, and the view from his angle isโ€”

He's not coming back from this. Kaveh's lips glisten in the low light. His dark eyelashes fan over the highs of his flushed cheeks and they're not coming back from this.

All he can think of is the words he once read when Kaveh's mother sent him books from Fontaine:

'Aprรฉs moi, le dรฉluge.'

He cradles Kaveh's cheek and lets his thumb touch the corner of Kaveh's lips, his own parting with a hiss as he touches along his length being engulfed again. Feels the hollowing of his cheeks as he pulls back. He's mesmerizing. No one should look this beautiful with a dick in their mouth.

The tension easily stretches so thin it's threatening to break.

[Kaveh's lips catch the soft amber light of Kaveh's bedroom, glistening right next to his weeping cock, the plane of his shoulders spread wide to brace himself on the Scribe's thighs. Kaveh looks like a Rishboland Tiger when they curl down to drink from a river. He's as hot as a summer night, Alhaitham realizes, his lungs aching as though his ribs threaten to break.

He wants to take him apart, he says, unaware that Alhaitham is already crumbling down.

His eyes prickle to stop them from fluttering closed with the sensation of heat and pressure and the look of Kaveh's eyelashes casting shadows over his eyes, the red peering right at him and the flush of his cheeks. If Kaveh wants to watch him, then he's going to give him what he wants. Alhaitham reaches, brushes Kaveh's hair back and away from his face, cradling his cheeks gently and skimming his thumb over his skin, tenderly so, as he rolls his hips just an increment into his mouth with a grunt through his teeth.
] Close...

[He had expected Kaveh to pull back with his warning, to perhaps stroke him to the rest of his completion, and not to go forth with thisโ€”fellatio, his mind would remind him of the word later with the strangest case of clarity after a moment of nothing at allโ€”with even more gusto, like an overexcited maestro who would push forward his orchestra with repetitive once more, with feeling. Alhaitham lets out a sharp breath through his teeth, his legs folding to frame Kaveh's shape on his bed, and really, of all things to expect, this was in the very little realm of possibility in the Scribe's calculations.

Except it's Kaveh. He tends to bring those tiny breaches of the unlikely into fruition with an elegant flare of his fingers, a glint in his eye. It's what made him so mesmerizing in the first place.

Though as mesmerizing as it is, Alhaitham can't help the flutter of his eyes at the build-up, the arch of his back and the roll of his hips as the tension in his core stretches so thin it snaps apart, and his eyes do fly open, emptily looking at the ceiling of Kaveh's bedroom, when he does come undone with a soft, almost silent hiss, and a stutter to his hips, his fingers tangled in the golden locks of the architect's hair, and nothing, absolutely nothing in his mind.

[He wants to laugh. For someone who has a reputation of being callous, blunt, unfeeling, and for someone who people automatically assume he has everything under control so they barely never ask, Alhaitham is asked how he is feeling exactly when he can't really put his finger on his own state. His mind is simultaneously blank, reeling with a clarity that he hadn't found even when he took care of himself to ease the tension in his body, to get his libido out of the way when the blonde decided to do something that, for some unfathomable reason, made Alhaitham stir. One time it was the way he tucked his hair behind his ear. Another was when he got a glimpse of his back muscles when arranging the light fixtures to some odd angle because it made the room look "better" somehow. It was the crease between his brows as he thought, the way he snapped his fingers, the way he snapped his teethโ€”

And said blonde is crawling back up his body, putting those thoughts again to a stop. He probably has no idea the power he has.

So instead of answeringโ€”he couldn't, really, give an answer that he wouldn't deem embarrassing for someone like himโ€”he cradles the back of Kaveh's head, pulls him up to a kiss, the warmth he had previously felt and the taste of himself in his mouth just enough of an encouragement to rolling them over and thumbing at the crease of his hip.

[It seems as though they're bound to surprise each other over and over like this, with small whimpers, sharp gasps, arched eyebrows and widened eyes. And it's all so new, the way he watches his thumb skim over hipbone, only to trace on the juncture where Kaveh's thigh meets torso, his fingers kneading tightly as he sighs into the architect's mouth.

And how unsurprising, and beautifully familiar, for Kaveh to not voice his wants and needs and nudge the spotlight to try and shine a light on Alhaitham's.

It's a good thing he's used to this, has perfected this into an art.
] It seems we're at an impasse.

[He tilts his head into the touch of his hair, chasing after more of it.] I don't know what I want, or what I should be doing. So I guess you'll have to tell me. Where do you want me to touch you?
sapio: (R5GSjeh)

[personal profile] sapio 2023-09-19 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[He'll add that to the numerous things he'll have to think about later, the thrill of seeing Kaveh flustered and flushed, cheeks trying to meet the crimson of his eyes, which scrunch closed in well-known, familiar frustration.

Well, not so well-known. Not when there's something equally as carmine begging for attention near Alhaitham's hand.

Instead, though, he settles his weight on an arm, brushes his roommate's hair back so he can take a closer look, and peer deep into those unruly eyes of his.
] Oh? Would I joke at a time like this? You said you wanted me; I want to make sure you get what you want. After all, there are a lot of things I could be doing. [Fingers clasp around the curve of Kaveh's neck, a steady grip, a heavy pet; fingers splaying as much surface as he can in his as he thumbs over his Adam's apple, and then to the grove between his collarbones. He skims the back of his knuckles along the wing of bone toward a shoulder, and then feels and kneads at the flesh of a pec.] Well?
