Work Text
They’re on Rei’s bed, Eiden’s back propped against the wall and Rei in his lap. He braces his hand and leans in for a sloppy, essence-exchanging kiss while simultaneously grinding his hips down firmly.“God…you are so fucking good at that.” Eiden’s voice is breathy, so desperate and sexy.“Mm.” Rei grins and rests his forehead against Eiden’s. “You say that every time.”Eiden slaps his ass and then reaches up to grab Rei’s hair, yanking backward to expose his neck. He licks the sweat there like a dripping ice lolly.“Fuck,” Rei mutters. “Not into that shit, Eiden.”“Oh?” Eiden’s hand sneaks between them. “Seems like you enjoyed it. Leaking like a faucet here.”“Just…fuck me already.”“Think I’ll let you do all the work today.”No surprise there. That’s probably why he likes this position so much. Granted, it does feel amazing. Rei loves the way he can both be in control and not. They’ve fucked in all kinds of positions, but Eiden often goes for this one. He says it’s because he likes the way Rei looks when he’s riding him. Rei thinks the truth is he’s a tad lazy.And doesn’t he have some right to be? It’s not any kind of secret that one or another of them is in his bedroom almost every night, or he’s in theirs, or he’s with one of the ones who doesn’t live there. How damn much energy does this guy need in order to do that? Even Rei hasn’t ever been that active, and he’s known a lot of men.He leans in to speak right into Eiden’s ear. “Brace yourself.”Eiden’s laugh warps into a moan. “Glad you’re feeling good enough for this.”The words are quiet, and once they’re spoken, Eiden drags Rei into another kiss like he wants to pretend that sentence didn’t happen. He’s a quick learner; he knows enough to keep that shit casual. It’s allowed as long as he doesn’t call attention to it. Not that he’s wrong, but he’s so damn annoying about it.In the end, Eiden doesn’t really make Rei do everything. He’s thrusting up with everything he’s got, while Rei grinds down onto him. It’s fast and brutal and absolutely incredible.“Shit…I’m gonna cum…”“Do it,” Rei growls. “I want it.”“Nnghh…Hahhh…fu-fuck…Aanghh!”Eiden’s head hits the wall, his eyes squeezed shut and his fingers digging into Rei’s hips. His cock pulses as he cums. Rei places his palm flat against the boards and grips Eiden’s chest with the other hand. His mouth drops open, and he chokes out a sound that’s half yell, half groan as he shoots all over Eiden’s stomach.It’s a while before they both stop gasping. It’s always intense between them, but this was some next-level exercise. It’s unfortunate that using so much energy is a bit hard on his body because Rei feels so damn good afterward. It’ll be a bit before he can go again.He climbs out of Eiden’s lap and tosses him a soft cloth. He puts himself back together and throws on a pair of trousers before sitting at his work table. Eiden raises an eyebrow but says nothing until he’s cleaned up.“No post-sex cuddling, huh?”“Shut up.” Rei isn’t heartless; he gives Eiden a tiny smile to let him know he’s only half joking.“Okay, fine. What are you working on?”“Some notes from my last examination of Blade.”Eiden laughs. “He’s a pretty willing subject, and he adores you.”“Can’t fathom why.”Eiden throws a pillow at his head but misses. “You can’t understand why everyone thinks you’re awesome?”“Tch.” Rei ducks his head, knowing he’s flushing—and that Eiden has seen it and is amused by it.Instead of commenting, though, Eiden says, “Toss me some paper and something to write with.”Rei pauses with his pen hovering and looks up. “Uh…why?”Eiden shrugs. “If you’re gonna draw, then so am I.”There’s no harm in that, Rei supposes. He reaches down for one of his empty sketchbooks and tosses it over along with some charcoal. Eiden catches both and settles in, knees up to prop the book.They work quietly like that for some time. It should’ve been easy to concentrate without Eiden being noisy, but instead, it’s distracting. Rei doesn’t know why he’s not saying anything. Eventually, he peeks over.Eiden has a look of total concentration. His tongue is poking out a little, and his gaze is trained on the page. His hand is moving in swift, practiced motions. Rei knows he’s a decent artist, having seen some of his sketches. Now he’s curious about what has Eiden’s attention solely on his work.Something must’ve alerted Eiden that he was being watched because he looks up to meet Rei’s eyes. He still hasn’t gotten dressed, so when he moves the sketchbook, his body is on full display.“You just want to sit there and stare at me?” Eiden grins, letting his legs fall apart.Rei swallows. “No.”“Uh huh.” Eiden’s hand drifts so it’s resting on the juncture between his thigh and his groin.“If you’re horny, go find someone else.”“I don’t think so.” Eiden palms himself. “This is what you wanted, isn’t it? To watch me.”“What makes you think—”“Tch. Don’t deny it.”Eiden moves again, ending the little show. He reaches down and grabs his trousers, pulling something out of the pocket and unfolding it. Rei’s first instinct is to leap up and snatch it out of his hand, but it won’t make any difference. Eiden’s already seen what’s on it.“Where did you get that?” Rei demands.“Maybe you should ask Father about it.”Eiden stalks over to the work table and holds out the crumpled page. Rei doesn’t look; he knows what it is. When he doesn’t reach for it, Eiden sets it on top of his current sketch. Rei is at a loss for words. A torrent of excuses and arguments and rude responses flood his brain, but he can’t even utter one of them.“If you wanted me to be your model, you could’ve asked. I’ve done it before.”Of course he has. The man of a thousand jobs definitely once posed for an artist.“Why would I need you to do that?”Eiden leans over and puts his lips beside Rei’s good ear. “I want you to draw me like one of your gemstone diagrams.”It’s such a ridiculous thing to say, but it’s having the effect Eiden obviously intended. There’s no escape other than to push back, to act like it doesn’t mean anything.“Stop it,” he says, firmly but controlled.“Eh?” Eiden does. He backs off.“That’s not what I want or what I meant.” Rei shoves the drawing out of his way.He fully expects Eiden to either argue with him or walk away. They do this dance regularly. Except this time, that’s not what happens. Instead, Eiden kneels down beside him and gently rests a hand on his leg.“Then what do you want?”A lot of things. He once told Eiden he wanted to observe him—like this or with one of the others, he didn’t care much which. Whether he was fooling himself or genuinely believed he was detached from it, he can’t say. Now, he wants whatever Eiden will let him have. The only expectation is that he be honest.He takes a deep breath and then looks into Eiden’s eyes. There’s only honesty, trust, and concern there. It’s the same expression he has any time one of Rei’s experiments goes sideways.“I-I want—” He swallows against the sudden pressure in his throat. “I want to watch.”“Watch…what, exactly?”“You,” Rei says quietly. “But also…” The warm press of Eiden’s palm on his thigh grounds him. “…with your priest friend.”Eiden’s mouth forms an O, and his eyes open wider. But there’s something else, a slight dilation of his pupils that gives Rei some hope.“Olivine?” Eiden says. “You want to…see us making love?”“Not—not precisely.”Eiden’s concerned look is back, a little puzzled. “Then what?”Rei grips Eiden’s hand. If he were only asking because he was researching, he could pass it off casually. Eiden’s persistence has backed him into this space, and there’s no escape other than to be truthful.“I want to catch you fucking. And…participate.”“Oh. Oh, shit.” Eiden sits back, although he leaves his hand where it is. His expression is thoughtful. “Actually…I think that would work.”Rei’s head whips around to stare at him. “Sorry, what?”“Yeah. Maybe I shouldn’t say this, but you’ve probably picked up on it anyway. I’ve been trying to think of a way to, uh, fulfill something I know he wants.”“It occurred to me he might need that, yes.”Eiden nods. “It’s kind of hard to ask, though. Like, ‘hey, want to watch me fuck a priest’ is probably not a good opener, you know?”“Holy hell, Eiden. That’s not even a good line to use on me, and I literally just asked you for it.”Eiden chuckles. “Okay, you got me there. But besides, who would I have asked? Most of the others probably wouldn’t be into it, and Solaria will freeze over before I invite Kuya.”“Wise decision.”Eiden turns serious again. “We should talk about it. This isn’t something where we can fly by the seats of our pants.”“I’m aware.”“For now, though, what do you want to do?” Eiden moves closer again, using his fingers to tease and slide up Rei’s leg. “Would you like to sketch me?”Rei’s mouth goes dry. “Yes.”He glances down to see Eiden’s already touching himself. Sucking in a breath, he keeps his gaze on the motion, unable to look away. There’s a light pressure on his leg as Eiden uses it as leverage to stand. He leans down.“I like the other drawing,” he murmurs.Then he’s out of Rei’s personal space and back on the bed. He stretches out, mostly on his back but rotated enough that Rei has a good view. Rather than being smug or predatory, Eiden’s smile is serene as he wraps a hand around himself.Rei picks up his charcoal and begins to draw. He tries to capture every line and curve, from Eiden’s elegant limbs to the muscles that have grown in the time they’ve known each other. He sketches Eiden’s lean, flat stomach and his perfect nipples. Then he moves down to recreate Eiden’s gorgeous cock, drawing his hand toward the top with a finger rubbing against the tip. It’s even better than the other illustration.Eiden’s posture is almost exactly how Rei imagined it the first time he tried to capture it on paper. His head is tipped back, tongue out as he gasps and pants with pleasure. He’s obviously close, and Rei is having difficulty focusing on his work. His breath hitches, and he longs to reach down and slip his hand into his trousers so they can cum together. He won’t, though. The sketch needs something it was missing before.Eiden is beautifully loud as he nears climax. Instead of closing his eyes, he turns his gaze toward Rei, and his expression catches him off-guard. Rei had it right before, the curiosity and kindness. But what he missed was the unabashed lust, a look that feels reserved only for him in this moment.Back arched, mouth open, and tongue out, Eiden releases a long, almost desperate moan as he cums. A visible shudder starts in his toes and travels upward, making him shake with every spurt from his cock. It’s so intense that Rei shivers too, feeling as if he could cum merely from observing.Eiden relaxes back onto the bed with a deep, satisfied sigh. Rei looks at the sketch, and while he still feels it doesn’t fully do Eiden justice, it’s far superior to the previous version. It occurs to him that he has only to ask and he can have as many tries as he needs to make it even better.Face still flushed, Eiden stands. He wipes off and approaches Rei’s work table again. Grabbing the chair, he turns it so Rei is facing him and then kneels down between his legs. He opens Rei’s trousers and pulls out his straining erection.Then Eiden’s mouth is on him, hot and wet and absolutely perfect. Rei tangles his fingers in Eiden’s hair, barely resisting the urge to fuck his mouth. He doesn’t hold back on making as much noise as he wants, letting Eiden know how damn good it is. In no time, the heat and pleasure rise until they burst out, filling Eiden’s mouth. He slowly licks Rei clean, his oversensitive cock sending shudders up his spine.Eiden stands and holds out a hand. “Come back to bed with me.”So Rei does, leaving the new sketch on top of his research notes.
