Strawberry Kiss
~*~
At this point Kei was simply frustrated. It should have been a simple thing, really. They had kissed weeks ago, but what should have bloomed into a relationship had somehow stagnated right there. Kei was fully convinced that the problem for him lay within the fact that he was thinking too much. Each time he wanted to grab a hold of Sho and kiss him again, his mind got in the way and made him trip. Was it appropriate right now? Should he move faster, move slower with Sho?
It was grating. And Sho, poor awkward kid that he was, seemed unable to find the approach either. So while it was clear that they both wanted to be together... they weren't.
It drove Kei crazy. The air between them had become decidedly awkward as each was trying to figure out how to initiate something without actually ever getting anywhere. They circled each other, reached out, pulled back, yearned and lusted and wished and never got around to acting on it.
It was well in the middle of the night, but heat still coiled in their apartment. Mallepa was not easy on her citizens currently. As Kei was pouring himself another glass of water, he heard the water in the shower stall being shut off and smiled slightly. Just as he usually took hot showers in the hopes of warming up, Sho had made it a habit of taking quick, cold showers in the unbearably hot summer months to stay comfortable.
It also meant Sho spent a lot of time walking around half naked and rather damp. Tonight, it was just a towel around the hips. He blushed when he noticed Kei looking at him, which prompted the vampire to look down at his glass, frowning slightly. Should he be staring like that? Damn it. It had been ages since he'd been with anyone, and he couldn't remember feeling this awkward. Clearly, he was the responsible one here. Sho was young and inexperienced and precious, and Kei was... well, he was who he was. He needed to keep in mind that he was responsible for Sho, needed to make sure this was right for him. Whatever happened, it needed to happen the right way and at the right time, and it needed to be good for Sho and it couldn't fall apart. They had one shot at being together, and he was the one who needed to make sure it didn't fire back on them. The damage that could be done... And yet every second he spent trying to figure this out was a second he wasn't holding Sho close, wasn't kissing Sho, wasn't making love to Sho...
A groan tore him from his thoughts and made him look up. Sho was peering into the fridge. Kei remembered distinctly that due to the heat, the human had avoided going out during daytime mostly for a couple of days. And food stores were closed at night.
“Nothing left?” he asked, though the answer was rather obvious. His eyes caught on the droplets of water running down Sho's upper body. It was not a sight he could tear himself away from.
Sho snorted and reached for something in the fridge. “Just a couple of strawberries” he murmured. Half of a bright red fruit disappeared between full lips, enough distraction to forget about tracing the path of water with his tongue on naked skin... and altogether worse for his self-restraint.
Sho's lips closed around the strawberry as he bit half of it off. He was quick to lick his lips, but still a few drops of juice escaped and ran down his chin.
The sight was utter sin, and suddenly Kei's mind shut down completely.
Maybe it was what he had needed all along. Just something to prompt him into acting instead of thinking. He could deal with the consequences later, but they didn't matter right now. Right now all that mattered was fastening his lips onto Sho's and moving from there.
There was a surprised noise. The scent and taste of strawberries invaded his senses as their lips met. And just like the first time, for a moment he could to nothing but marvel about how perfect their mouths fit together. Sho's lips were impossibly soft and warm. This time, they didn't pull back in silent marvel and then embarrassment, though. Instead, they lost no time to deepen their kiss, delving into each other's mouths as Kei's arms circled the human's waist to pull them closer together. He could feel Sho's warmth through the thin fabric of his own shirt as much as he could feel both of them react, desire flooding them as they picked up a slow but intense grind with each other, against each other.
Kei's lips slid down as Sho pulled back to catch his breath. Both of them were panting, and the occasional breathless gasp or whimper from Sho made the vampire's lust burn all the brighter. Their eyes locked as he yanked away the towel, leaving his lover bare before his eyes. Tonight, though, he couldn't take the time to appreciate the sight. He just needed to feel, and he knew Sho wanted nothing else right now just as well. There would be time for talk and doing it the right way later on. Right now all that mattered was not to stop.
Kei only got so far as to push his pants down to free his own straining erection when Sho pulled him in forcefully. Their manhoods touched, scorching steel encased in velvet, and they both knew this would not last long. All the more reason to give the simple grind all they had to make the ride as exhilarating as possible. Kei pushed against his lover, holding him by the waist and effectively pinning him against the fridge.
At the back of his mind he realized that this was as perfect as they could have it. Neither of them had been made for rose petals and candle light; all they could do was reach for something and hold onto it was tightly as possible. Warm hands cupped his buttocks and brought their hips hard against each other. Kei's scream of pleasure was lost in the depth of Sho's mouth.
They didn't talk. They could barely make a conscious noise. The sounds echoing through the kitchen were that of urgent kisses, panting, the rattling of the fridge door as the force of their rubbing and grinding pushed Sho against it harder and faster and with increasing urgency.
Sho was the first to throw back his head, eyes squeezed shut and teeth bared in a hiss as he pulled Kei in tight again, erratically thrusting against him even as his cock jerked with the force of release. The vampire was quick to follow, rolling his hips against Sho's even as the human went limp with exhaustion, eyes half closed but glowing as he waited to see the blonde man reach the peak. Kei made sure to keep his eyes open, allowing Sho to see the amount of his lust and love as he grunted and came.
They didn't talk about it afterwards, even though Kei reckoned they should have. They just cleaned up in silence, stole glances and accidental touches and in the end they shared a single, sweet kiss that tasted of strawberries and said all the things that were in their hearts. It was enough for them. Secretly, Kei had simply decided to give in to his urges concerning Sho more often instead of thinking about them too long. Sho, on the other hand, had secretly decided to take tonight's pleasure as the first sign of a tiny little kink and explore the effect strawberries could have on the two of them. Either way, both of them knew that wherever love would take them - they were willing to go.
