[His gaze lowers to Zack's hand over his, resisting the urge to pull his own away. The nightmare is still fresh in his mind, Zack turning, half ripped apart, trying to mindlessly attack him.]
I thought you were a soldier? You're a shrink, too?
[He shakes his head, flashes of how Zack had looked, pressing in closer trying to rip his throat out.] No. Please don't. [His voice is quick and quiet, pulling his hand away to tuck his knees up against his chest and wrap his arms around them.]
I'm fine. I think I might get up for a bit. [If he was in his own place or even his Dominant's, he'd grab a drink right about now. Drinking was one of the only things he found that really helped him stop thinking. He's guessing Zack doesn't have anything.]
Not a shrink, just someone whose had similar issues and helped others with theirs.
[He makes sure to take a step away from Leon and get off the bed himself. He goes to his closet to grab another blanket and holds it up so Leon can see.]
I'm going to make us something to drink, can I put this blanket on you? I want you to stay and don't move too much alright? I'll be in the kitchen if you need me.
[He has a feeling Leon wants to flee and while it might help in the here and now of things it won't if he flees so Zack wants him stayed and comfortable while he makes them both hot chocolate. He has a feeling though that Leon really doesn't want to look at him right now and that hurts a little but he isn't going to say anything on it, Leon's already stressed enough.] Do you like whipped cream?
[Leon gives him a stiff nod, though knowing that Zack isn't a therapist and has just dealt with this sort of thing makes him feel a tiny bit better.]
Something to drink? [For a fleeting moment, Leon is actually hopeful that Zack 'prescribes' to the same treatment to this sort of thing as he does, but he can only think of a few drinks someone would put whipped cream on.
He does wrap the blanket around him, more for Zack than because he thinks it'll help or that he needs it. He'd prefer to come with Zack, but he nods.] Yeah, whipped cream is fine.
[As soon as Zack is out of the room, he gets up and goes into the en suite running the water and splashing a bit over his face before looking at himself in the mirror. He silently tells himself to get his shit together and then heads back to the bed, sitting back down but forgetting the blanket.]
Okay, I'll be right in there if you need me okay? [With that he goes to the kitchen and works as fast as he can to make some instant hot cocoa. He added whipped cream to both and even a few odd looking marshmallows. They are shaped like little penises as that was all he could find in the store. He thinks it might make Leon laugh a little and laughing would be good right now.
As he's making their late night treat he hears movement in the room and then the water running. It seems Leon did move and he sighs but he can't blame the guy. He hasn't made himself or this space a safe space yet for Leon. So he carries the drinks back in and hands one to Leon before putting his own down.]
It's still hot okay? So just need to blow on it first.
[He smiles for a moment, looking at Leon and his uncovered self and so he goes to the bathroom to grab the discarded blanket. He then goes to the other side of the bed and puts the blanket in his lap, fiddling with it a little.]
If you want, you can lean against me again or something. I won't force contact but if you want it I'm right here.
[He only moves to get his own hot cocoa and then he's blowing on his in the silence of the room.]
Would you like to talk about it, or do you want to hear a story?
[The sounds of Zack in the kitchen are strangely reassuring. Just the normal noises of someone making tea or whatever he's doing. It's very normal and ends up being unintentionally grounding. He's sure the more time he puts between himself and the nightmare, the less vivid the images are becoming.
He's definitely had much worse.] What is it?
[He's praying for hot cider but he doesn't think he'll be that lucky. He takes the mug, peering at it.] Hot chocolate?
[His gaze falls to the blanket, not even realizing it had slipped off while he'd been in the bathroom.] Sorry.
[He actually nods, but doesn't immediately move.] I don't want to talk about it. We can talk about something else. [He's not sold on the whole story thing. He does, however, shift slightly until his leg bumps up against Zack's. It's not much, but it already feels like a grounding point.]
It's all I had and I hope it's okay. I can get more things if you want to visit more Leon. Maybe later we can go shopping together for food and stuff you like?
[He's trying and when Leon does move a little closer so their legs touch, Zack doesn't hide his smile but doesn't pull him closer either.] No need to be sorry, you've done nothing wrong at all.
[He takes a sip of his drink, getting a bit of whipped cream on his upper lip that he licks off.] Talk about something else...got it....[He pauses and looks down at the camouflaged marshmallows in the whipped cream.]
Do you like the dick mallows? I thought they were funny so I bought them.
It's fine, Zack. Really. It's actually more than I really need. [Although he does pause to give Zack a confused, questioning glance when Zack says he not only want to go shopping with him but he wants to go shopping for things he wants.] You don't need to keep things stocked for me, Z.
[Leon's lips press tightly together for a moment when Zack tries to reassure him, telling him he hasn't done anything wrong. But it just doesn't feel that way. Having a nightmare, sure, they happen. But he doesn't understand why they haven't stopped, why some people can go through what he had and more and not be the broken mess he's ended up. That feels like his fault. Like he should be stronger. Better.
Zack's question does succeed in getting him out of his own head and he slurps on some of the whipped cream if only to get it out of the way so he can see one of the melty little dicks floating there and snorts softly, cracking a tired smile.] Yeah, they're pretty great.
Is that the only dick-themed food you got? The cereal I have is also dick shaped. [In fact, it seemed like dicks were just the go to shape of a lot of things. Dicks and boobs.]
[Zack's smile does brighten a little at the nickname. Z, it's so simple but he likes it a lot.] I think it'd actually be really fun if we went shopping for groceries together. I never got to back home with anyone, just ate stuff they served in the mess hall or things my mentor would cook me mostly. Besides some fast food I mean.
[He takes another sip and nearly spits it out when he hears about dick cereal] You have cereal like that?!? Oh man now we have to go shopping together. You have to show me it, that sounds so funny!
[He does decide then that he really likes Leon's little laugh. It wasn't too loud but he still picked it up and had his face tint a little pink.] Your smile really suits you Leon. [The words kind of just come out and he goes a little more pink in the face.] I mean not that you don't look good without it either, it just looks nice I think! I just think I'd like to see it more and I'm glad I caused it this time is all!
[Leon gives him a dubious look, but it makes sense once Zack says grocery shopping hadn't really been a thing for him before coming here. It wasn't a mundane chore to him, then but something novel and fun.] Hm. Fine, but we can just find some stuff that you'll want too. You don't need to buy things just for me.
Mmhmm. Honey Nut Dicks.
[It's not even a joke, it's literally what they're called here.
Zack's compliment catches him by surprise and he blinks owlishly at him for a moment before blushing a little himself.] Thanks.
[He looks thoughtful, even frowning slightly, at what Zack says. His smiles had been pretty fleeting since Raccoon City... and the government intervention afterward.] It's a little easier here. [He feels like he's admitting to something, but it's true. As awful as this place could be, it was a different kind of awful from home. But he gives Zack a smirk.] Keep playing your cards right and maybe you'll get a few more.
[He sets the mug down on the bedside table and without saying a word, leans against Zack, nudging just a little at the perfect height for him to put his arm around his shoulders if he wanted, letting out a long exhale as he relaxed. He's not sure he wants to keep talking, or what to talk about, but he wants Zack to know he's done a good job, that this had helped.]
[Zack's laughing so hard he almost missed Leon giving him that smirk and he does fully miss the blush on the other mans face. He's wiping a fake tear from his eye from laughing so hard and puts his cup of cocoa away.]
I hope I do. Your smile's worth it.
[He had wanted to hug Leon then but in a turn of event, the man leans on him and he turns red. He takes the hint and does wrap and arm around Leon, still sitting up and letting him lay against him as much as he wants.]
Hey Leon...mind if I put the tv on mute in here for a bit?
[His voice is softer as he asks. If Leon falls back asleep he wants to stay awake to make sure he can stop the bad dreams before they come and tv will help him stay awake if they sort of cuddle like they are right now.]
[Leon chuckles. It hadn't been too funny when he'd said it himself, but watching Zack laugh so hard he's almost crying is great. He's smiling again, this time because he really can't help it, just smiling to himself.
Once Zack has the laughter out of his system, he does get hit with a wave of sudden exhaustion, the adrenaline from his nightmare having subsided and leaving him drained. He gets comfortable against Zack, immediately feeling the warmth radiating from his body pleasantly against his side, only making him sleepier. The weight of his arm only makes it better.]
Mmhmm. Don't worry about muting it. I fall asleep with the TV on all the time. [The noise helps. People talking. He likes that. Or maybe he's just passed out on his couch so many times at this point that his brain has rewired to want the noise.
Muted or not, he knows he's going to nod off pretty quickly and he barely makes it five minutes into the show before he's back asleep. Somewhere between breathing heavily and lightly snoring, he shifts to put his arm around Zack.]
[Zack's laughter and smiles have always been contagious and it seems Leon isn't immune to them either. Zack's glad for that, he would feel awful if Leon didn't smile more and he's happy to get another beautiful smile out of the man.]
Alright, I'll keep it low and watch over you okay? [He turns the tv on, getting comfortable with Leon at his side and even leans a bit to place a kiss on the top of his head as he focuses on the random show and not at the handsome man in his arms currently.
Zack keeps his promise and stays up, not really getting too tired and focused on the show and Leon's breathing. The snoring is adorable and he keeps trying to focus more on the show. The man doesn't want anything extra with him, he's trying not to get a little attached but it's okay if they are friends right? Holding a friend who needs comfort isn't always romantic, he just has to keep reminding himself that.
With Leon almost hugging him in his sleep, Zack goes a little stiff for a moment, caught off guard but he quickly melts into the touch and just smiles, looking down at the sleeping man in his arms.]
Sweet dreams Leon
[He gives him a little bit of a squeeze before he adjusts the blankets on them more and shifts a bit so he can fully hold the other man, cuddling him like he's wanted to since he woke up from that nightmare.]
[When Leon wakes again, the room is just starting to get light, the TV off. He's lying on his side, still half asleep, warm, pressed close to someone else. He ends up closing his eyes and nodding off again, too comfortable to wake up just yet. But when he stirs again, he can feel it, hard, pressing insistently against his ass. Not quite awake yet, he smirks faintly in the early morning glow, arching slightly to roll his hips back, grinding his ass shamelessly back against Zack.
He's not quite awake enough yet to realize who is pressed up against him, but he sleepily reaches behind him to gently palm him through his pajamas. Part of him likely assumes its Hermes. They're big, the cock heavy in his hand as he teases him.
He makes a quiet noise before shifting, pressing his back more fully against their chest and pulling their arm around him, wanting to feel more snuggly held against them. At this point, he's half hard too but he doesn't want to bother his partner any more, they'll both be ready to wake up eventually.
[ Zack was actually able to keep his promise for almost the entire night that he wouldn't fall asleep on Leon. It was only in the last half hour or so that sleep finally took him. The tv's white noise mixed with Leon's soft breathing and weight against him finally did him in as he had turned to his side and was sort of spooning the other man.
He's been out enough for his own dream and it is the first one since he's come to duplicity that doesn't have him feeling sad. Instead he dreams of Aerith and her flowers in the church. The light shines through the cracks in the roof, illuminating Aerith as if she were a heavenly angel. She smiles at him, a look that looks far too knowing and one he was never really able to read. She points at the door behind her and Zack's attention turns there. It's Leon walking in. The two of them talk and Zack can't help but think Leon seems to fit so well in this broken down holy place that others have forgotten. Aerith leads Leon to the flowers and places one on his head. Zack can't hear what they are talking about but he does see Leon look at him and smile and his heart feels like he skips a beat. It's a bigger smile than he's seen on the man and he starts to walk towards him and Zack waits with open arms. He hugs Leon and in his sleep gives the man a squeeze as well.
With Leon moving closer to him and starting to rub against him, Zack's dream starts to get spicier too. Leon's kissing him again like he did before, those soft lips against his are so much better than he thought any mans lips would ever be against his. He feels amazing and Zack holds him tighter in the embrace of the dream.
He shifted at some point, moreso spooning Leon from behind and with kiss in his dream, Zack's moving his head to nuzzle against Leon's neck. A bit of skin is exposed there and his lips brush against it, leaving the sleepiest of kisses there as he mumbles in his sleep.
The dream turns heavier as Leon starts to rub against him. In his dream Leon is rubbing him through his pants, asking for more, wanting to feel Zack's affections. It has the man practically dry humping Leon in his sleep. His grip keeps him in place as his hard big cock keeps rubbing against Leon's ass and back. ]
[Leon's somewhere between sleeping and wakefulness, dozing but aware. So, when Zack presses his hips forward, he stirs immediately. A bit of shifting is expected, but the first bump or two becomes outright grinding. He's so hard, despite the fabric between them, he slips just right between his cheeks, leaving nothing to the imagination. Leon doesn't help, arching his back to press back against him, rolling his hips to help Zack hump against him. He's hard too by now and slowly becoming more awake.]
Zack. [His voice is soft, barely a breathy whispered exhale. He's got to be awake, too, right? At least that's his assumption.
He moves Zack's hand lower, wanting to be touched as Zack practically fucks him through their clothes. He reaches behind him, cupping the bulge in Zack's pajamas to massage his balls as he works his cock against him.]
[Zack acfually isn't awake and very deeply still in his dream. His thrustinf starts to slow down a little, still hard but slower and much more tired. The hand at Leon's waist does move lower with his help, gently cupping Leon's clothed cock. He's drooling a little in his sleep, the wetness dripping from his mouth onto Leon's neck.
The dream is going fine until he hears his name. It does start to wake him a little but Zack's stuck trying to tell dream from reality. Leon in his dream starts to darken, the sunlight from before no longer shining on him. He says something that Zack can't hear but it hurts all the same. He feels like he might cry.
In his sleep Zack's thrusting starts to stop as he actually whimpers, his grip on Leon tightens as if afraid to let go. He even mumbles once more in his sleep, inbetween the whimpering.]
Jesus, Zack. [He mumbles as Zack rubs and thrusts against his back. He's definitely hard now and Zack's hand feels good but nowhere near good enough. But then he slows and stops, the whole thing has him confused, especially as he tries to figure out what Zack is saying.]
Zack... I'm not going anywhere. [He starts to reassure him but the whimpers strike him as strange and it's only then that it hits him that Zack is the one having a dream now.
He turns in his arms, putting a hand on his shoulder, squeezing to try to wake him.] Zack. Zack, wake up. It's alright, you're just dreaming.
[Zack's dream is in no way as traumatic as Leon's but it still makes him sad. He doesn't want Leon leaving him. He liked the kisses and touches, he wants more too but the man doesn't want him and there is nothing he can do about it. It hurts.
The pressure does start to wake him up and his glowing blue eyes do start to open, watery and looking like he might cry. Leon's the first thing he focuses on when his eyes open and he still thinks it's a dream. It's too similar to it for him to think otherwise.]
Leon, please don't hate me. I like you.
[He really does look like he might start crying and he pulls the man closer and kisses him deeply, better than the previous kiss they shared. He keeps an arm around that waist, and a hand in Leon's short hair as he presses against him, facing each other has their cocks rubbing.]
Hey. [Leon offers as he sees Zack's eyes open. He doesn't exactly smile but his expression softens, obviously glad that he's awake and getting his bearings.]
It's okay. I don't hate you. You were just dreaming. [He tries to reassure him, carding his fingers through Zack's hair.
He's a little surprised when Zack pulls him into a kiss. He definitely doesn't resist, leaning eagerly into the kiss with a soft groan. Pushing closer, he slips his hand up Zack's chest. Their hips flush together, he shifts to ease his leg between Zack's, thigh offering him something to grind against.]
[Leon sort of gives a warning but Zack doesn't head it and instead he leans into the touches and feel of everything. He's still partially asleep and thinking this isn't real anyway. He can indulge in a dream and Leon feels so good. It's better then anything he's ever felt to have Leon in his arms, maybe even nice then Aerith but he doesn't let that thought linger much.]
Leon...
[That hand is warm as it sneaks under his shirt and Zack breaks the kiss to take it off, pulling it over his head and then his lips go to seek Leon's once more, so eager to taste him once more. He's moaning into the kiss, as his cock clearly starts to strain against his loose pants. The outline is pretty visible as he rubs it against Leon's offered thigh, his own wrapped tightly around Leon as the kisses deepen into full on tongue. Leon's sweet, so incredibly sweet to Zack that he feels like he almost can't handle it. He needs more, wants more.]
[To be fair to Zack, despite trying to reassure him, he is also being very, very distracting.
He shifts slightly to let Zack tug his shirt off. Leon had worn his boxer-briefs to bed but nothing else and feeling his skin warm against his own is electric. He parts his lips into the kiss, moaning soft and low against Zack's mouth.
Leon can feel him pushing and grinding up against him, so he snakes his other hand between them, cupping and then practically stroking him through the loose pants. He doesn't tease for long, easily slipping his fingers under the waist band of his pants, loosely wrapping his hand around his shaft to start stroking him, giving Zack more to thrust against.]
Edited (gdi, can you tell I'm on my phone =_=) Date: 2023-11-29 07:25 pm (UTC)
[In what Zack thinks is still a dream, he keeps rubbing and thrusting against Leon to get some kind of pleasurable friction still going between them. He's had wet dreams before and this feels like one of those but even better so it's not like he doesn't think it's possible either. He's going off instincts cause if he was awake he wouldn't know how to react to this at all and would fumble over every touch. Wet dream Zack is much more capable then conscious awake Zack.]
Ah..ngh...
[He moans into the kisses as those lips part and their tongues meet in a heated dance, trying to touch as much as they can of eachother. His hands trail lower down Leon's back, grapping his butt not to squeeze but to keep him in place as he thrusts against the warm hand in his pants and that leg. He's not sweating but his body feels hot and slowly Zack is starting to come through the haze of his sleep but not enough yet to stop. In facnt he moves quicker, so close to an orgasm already.]
[Leon's back arches as Zack runs his hand down his spine, moaning into the kiss when he gives him a squeeze. The thought crosses his mind, wanting to kiss his way down Zack's chest to finish him off with his mouth. But his desire to taste him will have to wait for some other time; Zack is clinging to him far too tightly.
Leon squeezes him each time he thrusts up through his fingers, pumping his length with each one. The kiss feels needy and hungry, especially as Zack's movements speed up and get more frantic. He groans again into the kiss as he sweeps the pad of his thumb over the head of Zack's cock, feeling how slick he is with precum. Pushing his other hand into Zack's hair, he tugs gently, grinding his own hips down against him.]
[This dream feels so realistic, almost too realistic. His eyes are starting to open more as he continues moving, the pleasure building up and the sounds of their bodies together turning Zack on in a way he's never felt before. He's so hard, so close, so needy. A moan leaves his throat and he hardly recognizes it as his own voice as he looks at Leon with sleepy eyes. Their lips keep touching and he lets the dream continue even if he is more awake now. Leon tastes so good and his hands are soft and different against his cock. It twitches in response so close.
Zack thrusts a few more times, the clarity of being awake quickly hitting him but it's already too late. He's about to climax. His eyes widen and he is about to pull away from Leon but the way the man grinds down against him in return, the way that thumb presses against the head of his cock sends him over and he climaxes hard against Leon's hand and his own pants.
He's panting as the fog takes over his thoughts, actually breathing heavy for once and still rubbing against Leon to get him to climax too. His body works more on it's own instincts then on what Zack thinks he should be doing.]
[Leon seems oblivious to the shift in Zack's lucidity, assuming he'd been awake since he started getting extra handsy. He groans softly as he feels Zack orgasm, making a mess in his hand, and he continues to stroke him firmly through it. He dips his head to kiss Zack along his jaw, sprinkling a few light nips in there as his hand slows.]
Good morning to you, too. [He chuckles before working his way back to Zack's mouth, sucking lightly on his lower lip as he grinds against him. Zack's body meets his and he rolls his hips back into Zack's hand that's still resting lightly on his ass. What he'd give for him to squeeze him again, craving his touch.
He's leaking a spot of precum against his boxer-briefs though, hard and getting closer. He's just not sure if grinding against Zack will do it.]

Mmhmm. Don't worry about muting it. I fall asleep with the TV on all the time. [The noise helps. People talking. He likes that. Or maybe he's just passed out on his couch so many times at this point that his brain has rewired to want the noise.
Muted or not, he knows he's going to nod off pretty quickly and he barely makes it five minutes into the show before he's back asleep. Somewhere between breathing heavily and lightly snoring, he shifts to put his arm around Zack.]

Date: 2023-11-22 01:15 pm (UTC)Alright, I'll keep it low and watch over you okay? [He turns the tv on, getting comfortable with Leon at his side and even leans a bit to place a kiss on the top of his head as he focuses on the random show and not at the handsome man in his arms currently.
Zack keeps his promise and stays up, not really getting too tired and focused on the show and Leon's breathing. The snoring is adorable and he keeps trying to focus more on the show. The man doesn't want anything extra with him, he's trying not to get a little attached but it's okay if they are friends right? Holding a friend who needs comfort isn't always romantic, he just has to keep reminding himself that.
With Leon almost hugging him in his sleep, Zack goes a little stiff for a moment, caught off guard but he quickly melts into the touch and just smiles, looking down at the sleeping man in his arms.]
Sweet dreams Leon
[He gives him a little bit of a squeeze before he adjusts the blankets on them more and shifts a bit so he can fully hold the other man, cuddling him like he's wanted to since he woke up from that nightmare.]

Date: 2023-11-24 07:41 am (UTC)He's not quite awake enough yet to realize who is pressed up against him, but he sleepily reaches behind him to gently palm him through his pajamas. Part of him likely assumes its Hermes. They're big, the cock heavy in his hand as he teases him.
He makes a quiet noise before shifting, pressing his back more fully against their chest and pulling their arm around him, wanting to feel more snuggly held against them. At this point, he's half hard too but he doesn't want to bother his partner any more, they'll both be ready to wake up eventually.

Date: 2023-11-24 03:25 pm (UTC)He's been out enough for his own dream and it is the first one since he's come to duplicity that doesn't have him feeling sad. Instead he dreams of Aerith and her flowers in the church. The light shines through the cracks in the roof, illuminating Aerith as if she were a heavenly angel. She smiles at him, a look that looks far too knowing and one he was never really able to read. She points at the door behind her and Zack's attention turns there. It's Leon walking in. The two of them talk and Zack can't help but think Leon seems to fit so well in this broken down holy place that others have forgotten. Aerith leads Leon to the flowers and places one on his head. Zack can't hear what they are talking about but he does see Leon look at him and smile and his heart feels like he skips a beat. It's a bigger smile than he's seen on the man and he starts to walk towards him and Zack waits with open arms. He hugs Leon and in his sleep gives the man a squeeze as well.
With Leon moving closer to him and starting to rub against him, Zack's dream starts to get spicier too. Leon's kissing him again like he did before, those soft lips against his are so much better than he thought any mans lips would ever be against his. He feels amazing and Zack holds him tighter in the embrace of the dream.
He shifted at some point, moreso spooning Leon from behind and with kiss in his dream, Zack's moving his head to nuzzle against Leon's neck. A bit of skin is exposed there and his lips brush against it, leaving the sleepiest of kisses there as he mumbles in his sleep.
The dream turns heavier as Leon starts to rub against him. In his dream Leon is rubbing him through his pants, asking for more, wanting to feel Zack's affections. It has the man practically dry humping Leon in his sleep. His grip keeps him in place as his hard big cock keeps rubbing against Leon's ass and back. ]

Date: 2023-11-24 09:08 pm (UTC)Zack. [His voice is soft, barely a breathy whispered exhale. He's got to be awake, too, right? At least that's his assumption.
He moves Zack's hand lower, wanting to be touched as Zack practically fucks him through their clothes. He reaches behind him, cupping the bulge in Zack's pajamas to massage his balls as he works his cock against him.]

Date: 2023-11-25 09:08 am (UTC)The dream is going fine until he hears his name. It does start to wake him a little but Zack's stuck trying to tell dream from reality. Leon in his dream starts to darken, the sunlight from before no longer shining on him. He says something that Zack can't hear but it hurts all the same. He feels like he might cry.
In his sleep Zack's thrusting starts to stop as he actually whimpers, his grip on Leon tightens as if afraid to let go. He even mumbles once more in his sleep, inbetween the whimpering.]
N-no....stay....le-...
no subject
Date: 2023-11-26 08:45 am (UTC)Zack... I'm not going anywhere. [He starts to reassure him but the whimpers strike him as strange and it's only then that it hits him that Zack is the one having a dream now.
He turns in his arms, putting a hand on his shoulder, squeezing to try to wake him.] Zack. Zack, wake up. It's alright, you're just dreaming.
no subject
Date: 2023-11-26 01:11 pm (UTC)The pressure does start to wake him up and his glowing blue eyes do start to open, watery and looking like he might cry. Leon's the first thing he focuses on when his eyes open and he still thinks it's a dream. It's too similar to it for him to think otherwise.]
Leon, please don't hate me. I like you.
[He really does look like he might start crying and he pulls the man closer and kisses him deeply, better than the previous kiss they shared. He keeps an arm around that waist, and a hand in Leon's short hair as he presses against him, facing each other has their cocks rubbing.]
no subject
Date: 2023-11-27 07:21 am (UTC)It's okay. I don't hate you. You were just dreaming. [He tries to reassure him, carding his fingers through Zack's hair.
He's a little surprised when Zack pulls him into a kiss. He definitely doesn't resist, leaning eagerly into the kiss with a soft groan. Pushing closer, he slips his hand up Zack's chest. Their hips flush together, he shifts to ease his leg between Zack's, thigh offering him something to grind against.]
no subject
Date: 2023-11-27 08:03 pm (UTC)Leon...
[That hand is warm as it sneaks under his shirt and Zack breaks the kiss to take it off, pulling it over his head and then his lips go to seek Leon's once more, so eager to taste him once more. He's moaning into the kiss, as his cock clearly starts to strain against his loose pants. The outline is pretty visible as he rubs it against Leon's offered thigh, his own wrapped tightly around Leon as the kisses deepen into full on tongue. Leon's sweet, so incredibly sweet to Zack that he feels like he almost can't handle it. He needs more, wants more.]
no subject
Date: 2023-11-29 07:23 pm (UTC)He shifts slightly to let Zack tug his shirt off. Leon had worn his boxer-briefs to bed but nothing else and feeling his skin warm against his own is electric. He parts his lips into the kiss, moaning soft and low against Zack's mouth.
Leon can feel him pushing and grinding up against him, so he snakes his other hand between them, cupping and then practically stroking him through the loose pants. He doesn't tease for long, easily slipping his fingers under the waist band of his pants, loosely wrapping his hand around his shaft to start stroking him, giving Zack more to thrust against.]
no subject
Date: 2023-11-29 07:43 pm (UTC)Ah..ngh...
[He moans into the kisses as those lips part and their tongues meet in a heated dance, trying to touch as much as they can of eachother. His hands trail lower down Leon's back, grapping his butt not to squeeze but to keep him in place as he thrusts against the warm hand in his pants and that leg. He's not sweating but his body feels hot and slowly Zack is starting to come through the haze of his sleep but not enough yet to stop. In facnt he moves quicker, so close to an orgasm already.]
no subject
Date: 2023-11-30 07:54 pm (UTC)Leon squeezes him each time he thrusts up through his fingers, pumping his length with each one. The kiss feels needy and hungry, especially as Zack's movements speed up and get more frantic. He groans again into the kiss as he sweeps the pad of his thumb over the head of Zack's cock, feeling how slick he is with precum. Pushing his other hand into Zack's hair, he tugs gently, grinding his own hips down against him.]
no subject
Date: 2023-12-05 02:24 am (UTC)Zack thrusts a few more times, the clarity of being awake quickly hitting him but it's already too late. He's about to climax. His eyes widen and he is about to pull away from Leon but the way the man grinds down against him in return, the way that thumb presses against the head of his cock sends him over and he climaxes hard against Leon's hand and his own pants.
He's panting as the fog takes over his thoughts, actually breathing heavy for once and still rubbing against Leon to get him to climax too. His body works more on it's own instincts then on what Zack thinks he should be doing.]
no subject
Date: 2023-12-07 02:35 am (UTC)Good morning to you, too. [He chuckles before working his way back to Zack's mouth, sucking lightly on his lower lip as he grinds against him. Zack's body meets his and he rolls his hips back into Zack's hand that's still resting lightly on his ass. What he'd give for him to squeeze him again, craving his touch.
He's leaking a spot of precum against his boxer-briefs though, hard and getting closer. He's just not sure if grinding against Zack will do it.]
Z... need you... [He mumbles quietly.]
