Up in Arms

“Handsome, we have plenty of time. Let’s get you back healthy before we tackle such an undertaking,” Reed said, trying again to pull away, but Trevor held fast.

“No, don’t leave. Please stay here with me. I’m okay, I can do it.” Tears threatened to fall, and, dear lord, wasn’t that just the worst thing that could possibly happen at this moment? Reed pulled free of the hold, rising, but Trevor grabbed his hand. “Please, Reed. Let me just have this moment. I know I’m asking a lot, but I just need to know what you feel like.”

“Trevor babe, I don’t want to hurt you, and we will if we continue this. It won’t be too much longer, I promise. We have a lifetime to be together. Until then, there are other ways to relieve some of this pressure.” Reed came closer, but kept distance between them. Trevor never let his hold go, keeping his arms around Reed who tried to pull away.

“You don’t understand. I don’t care about the pain. Reed, my feelings for you are so strong. The entire time I ran through that fucking jungle, I thought of what it was like to make love to you. I thought about the night in the hotel, and it was the thought of being with you again that helped me fight to stay alive. When I was lying in that damn basement room, trying to focus on keeping my weapon ready, it was your face that filled my mind. I smiled at you as the blackness crept in from the sides, taking me under. And fuck, Reed, I knew then, like I know now, I don’t see you staying with me long term. Please, I want to feel you surrounding me now.” Desperation filled Trevor’s voice. Flashes of anger filled Reed’s eyes, but Trevor quickly lifted his hand to Reed’s lips, silencing him.

“No, listen to me, Reed, at some point you’re going to see me for who I am. It’s not the injury. It’s me. I’m boring with very little to offer you. And I just want to have this memory to hang on to. I love you, Reed. I know without question, I’ll love you for the rest of my life. No one will ever replace you, or take your place in my heart. I...I know it hasn’t been long, and I get I’m freaking you out, but it doesn’t change this inside me. Please let me try again. I can handle the pain. I promise. It wasn’t terrible.”

While Trevor confessed his heart, Reed watched him intently, slowly lowering back down alongside his body. Every emotion Trevor could name flashed through Reed’s emerald eyes until he noticed they finally stayed tender and focused only on his face. It took a moment before Reed responded. He ran his fingertips gently over Trevor’s lips and jaw.

“I find I’m somewhat at a loss for words, which is so very rare for me. You touch my heart like no one ever has before. Only time will show you of the truth in my words, but you must know I’m madly in love with you. I have been since I first spoke your name while sitting across from you at the hotel bar. I want nothing more than to be here with you, by your side forever. For your happiness seems to be my only happiness. I love you completely, Trevor,” Reed whispered while rising up to capture their lips together.

The kiss was the most tender of his life. Reed kissed him like their souls were connecting, binding them into one. Trevor thrust his tongue forward, but Reed consumed him, caressing his tongue with a wet velvety stroke before diving and delving into the far reaches of his mouth. Then Reed abruptly tore free, pulling his body up.

“Trevor, sit against the headboard. Let me lift your leg, babe. I’m willing to give in to your demands because my need for you is overriding my common sense...but if you hurt, you need to let me know. We’ll think of other ways to pleasure one another. ” Reed worked quickly, pulling him free of his boxers and stuffing pillows behind his back. Trevor couldn’t seem to keep his hands off Reed, touching anything within his reach, while he positioned him. When Reed seemed satisfied with how he sat, he reached across the bed to where he left the condoms and lubricant. Reed quickly kissed him. Trevor ran his fingertips over and over Reed’s hard abs, and then around to his tight perfect ass, sliding his fingers in to begin carefully massaging Reed’s tight rim. Reed straddled his hips, being very careful of his leg, never putting his full weight on Trevor.

“I don’t want to hurt you, Trevor. You must tell me if I do. I’ll reposition until we work it out. Promise me, sexy, you won’t stay in pain. There are many ways to make this happen for you.” Reed stopped what he was doing until Trevor gave a small nod. The concern and love Trevor saw in Reed’s eyes had him pulling Reed to him for another deep kiss. He rolled his hips forward, pushing his cock against Reed’s, loving the feel of them mingling together. Reed tore from the kiss and rose. He watched Reed slide a condom on his dick before pouring several drops of cold liquid straight onto of his rigid length. The wetness startled him, but the oils warmed quickly when Reed’s hand reached between their bodies, stroking.

“I love you, Trevor. I’ve also dreamed of you being inside me,” Reed whispered into his lips, stroking him back and forth while running his nose along Trevor’s jaw and down across his neck.

“I love hearing you say that.”

Trevor’s eyes rolled in the back of his head as Reed lifted his body, rubbing Trevor’s engorged tip against his opening. Reed slowly worked himself onto Trevor’s hard cock. Trevor tried to watch Reed lower himself, but the sensations were too strong. He dropped his head back on the headboard. He lifted his hands to Reed’s thick dick, gripping it, stroking while rolling his hips forward. This was so much better than he’d ever imagined. He groaned as Reed slowly rocked his hips back and forth, taking Trevor inch by delicious inch until he was buried deep in his body.
