Summary: Sleeping in on a Sunday
Completion: Complete
The bed was still warm, but Ty’s arm only found a pillow and sheets when he rolled over. He frowned slightly and moved his arm around, just in case Alex had shifted closer to the edge of the mattress or something. When he still didn’t feel bare skin, he finally opened his eyes. Blinking at the light coming in from around the curtains, he yawned and glanced at the clock. Damn. It was later than he thought. The morning was practically gone already. No wonder Alex wasn’t still lying in bed.
Of course, Alex also wasn't as sore as Ty was this morning. He shifted slightly and couldn’t help but smile at the familiar soreness in his back and ass. It had been months since he’d felt like this, but it wasn’t like he could forget. His body definitely remembered what it was like to be at the receiving end of Alex’s sexual energy. There’d been like seven months of inactivity to make up for, after all, and Alex hadn’t taken many breaks until they were both too exhausted to have another round. The sex had been amazing, better than ever before because there hadn’t been condoms or walls or anything between them this time.
He had Alex, all of him, and Ty knew it was the same for him with Alex. They’d even made love in the early morning hours, slow and thorough and unlike anything he’d ever experienced before. He knew what it had meant, knew that Alex was in a better place than he had been in the years they’d known each other, and knew what it really meant that Alex was able to get hard and actually maintain an erection again. The past might still be there, but Alex wasn’t letting it control his head anymore. He was getting better, and Ty was so happy for him that he couldn’t really put it into words. He’d just tried to show him.
And Ty was better, too. The fact that he was able to lie in bed and think was actually good. He wasn’t lying here worrying that the reason the bed was empty was because Alex had panicked or hadn’t wanted this now that he could have sex with other people, after all. That old insecurity, well, he wasn’t completely confident about everything and still had his moments, but he was human so he could handle that. The worst of it was gone, though. He had faith in Alex, believed in them and their relationship, and he knew that their love was strong, regardless of how corny that sounded even in his head. Sure, Alex liked to flirt, but he wasn’t going to give them up just to have sex with someone else. Ty knew that, and it was amazing how much that knowledge helped to get rid of the fears and concerns that he’d have felt before regarding their relationship.
Ty smiled into his pillow before he arched his back and stretched. Definitely too sore to get up yet. That was his excuse, at least. Mostly the bed felt warm and comfortable, and he was reluctant to get up and start doing Sunday chores and stuff. That could wait for a little longer.
