I have convinced him of my disinterest-now I must convince myself.

It being Tuesday morning, he realized speed was of the essence. The Medical Advisor's recommendations produced a slow, gentle decrease of symptoms-appropriate, perhaps, for lesser men, but St. John was made of steelier stuff. He had every confidence he could endure a full course of the necessary deprivations and treatments in a shortened time period and thus achieve at least partial success by Friday evening. And so, within a quarter hour of his conversation with the Captain, he had requested cool water to be brought up from the well, slipped out of morning dress and begun to take his first cold-water bath

I don't know what rock I've been hiding under that I am just now finding this, but WOW am I so glad I did. And at first I felt guilty because I got to read it all in one sitting while others have been agonizing over every update, but now I, too, have the epic cliffhanger to suffer through so I am going to get my comeuppance ;) I will be on pins and needles with the rest until we get more!!

I ADORE this, anon. Please indulge us with more. There is so much exquisite tension and deliciously oblique licentiousness and pent-up desire and frustration!

<333 This is my happy place forever!

COME THE FUCK ON, ST JOHN! You are not "risking [your] mortal soul for fleeting love and more base affections". We know you have "passion burning and bubbling up out of [you], scarcely controlled during the day and often keeping [you] awake at night", so why don't you and Cpt Aquilaine, "tanned from the tropical sun", stay awake together?

I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO PASSIONATE, REPRESSED, CALVINIST-GUILT-RIDDLED YAY!SEX. \o/ \o/ \o/

I wish I had time to respond to all of you! But for now, thank you to everyone who's reading and commenting, extra thanks to my beta (this one's beta-d!), and please don't hate me. :D

Chapter 8

In which the Rev. St. John is overwhelmed by a Monsoon and a Caress, fails to curb His Tongue, learns that often Second Attempts are better than Firsts, and finds Himself in Sympathy with St. Peter.As if the very heavens themselves mocked St. John, the weather chose that moment to break; blackness closed in around them, the wind began to blow and the skies opened as the first monsoon of summer began its furious assault on Calcutta. The storm was almost willfully intense, as if attempting to make apology for its tardiness, and he could hardly shout over the roar of the pounding rain

St. John barged into his sitting room, pulling the Captain roughly behind and closing the door with a slam that shook the stopper in the brandy-glass. “It could not possibly be worse. You have told a man like Cpl. Fitzpatrick that I was … was having relations with you-you have ruined me! I am a Reverend, and everyone in Calcutta shall now think I am a fornicator and sodomite as well

“Is that what all your talk of young ladies and shepherd boys is about?” Cpt. Aquilaine ran fingers through his wet hair, as if struggling to grasp what they were discussing

So the Captain smiled, lifted St. John's hand to his mouth and slowly slid the glove away, running his lips over the Reverend's skin as he did so, kissing knuckle, then finger, then nail, then tip, then turning the now-bare hand over and tracing the fingers back down to the palm. Such was the expression of ardor on his face that St. John nearly forgot to draw breath

The Captain led him into the bedroom; St. John yet again went still with anxiety. I am sitting on his bed, on his sheets, and next he and I will lie down on this bed and I shall be naked-those are his hands, and soon they shall be touching every part of me-what will I do and how shall I do it? O God. I shall shame myself and he shall laugh at my innocence. Cpt. Aquilaine kissed him more insistently, hands lingering over the sharp bones of St. John's hips before moving forward to the buttons on his smalls. But as he began to push St. John back on to the bed St. John caught himself with his elbows, willing himself not to lie down and the Captain paused, uncertain of his welcome.

“I have not done this before, Marcus,” St. John confessed with a look of pleading and fear. “I do not know what I am to do next. I will not do things well. I am afraid.”

Men are such stupid creatures. I have spent my whole life proud of my purity and chastity, and now that I am about to surrender both I am ashamed for not knowing how.“Why-it is much the same

Cpt. Aquilaine sucked in his breath sharply through clenched teeth and jerked his hand away. St. John felt him shift off, breaking contact, and swing his legs over the side of the bed; he sat there, elbows on his knees and slumped shoulders, staring down at the floorboards. St. John realized what he had just implied. He reached out to clasp the Captain on the arm

When at last he lay back Cpt. Aquilaine followed him down, broad hands skimming the wiry cords of his arms, lips and teeth tugging at an ear-lobe and causing St. John to gasp aloud as thrills of heat shot into the base of his spine. Ever shy of his strangely-exposed body, he curled in a little while the Captain ran fingers lightly down his ribs. He twisted with tension and pleasure under those fingers, even as they simply rested unmoving on the crest of one hip, but as the Captain's hand shifted down even further, tracing a line up his thigh before-o God have mercy-sliding along the tender pale underside of his buttock, he could not help but pull himself violently away

The words sent a different sort of thrill down St. John's spine, but he too had grown unexpectedly weary and felt himself drifting off. “Did we truly go to the symphony tonight? It seems years ago.”

From under the blankets, the Captain chuckled softly. “We did indeed, and yes-it feels very distant. But do not worry that you were precipitous, as you say; that is often the way at first. Sleep a little, and I shall show you what I mean.” He pulled St. John closer so his back was flush against the Captain's chest; St. John needed no further encouragement.

The rain had tapered off for the present and the grandfather clock in the lobby began to chime, waking the Reverend with a start. He sat up and listened intently as it struck one-two-three, without even quite remembering why the time of night was so important. Next to him, one arm still holding him close, the Captain shifted and stirred a little
