Saturn lay on his stomach on his queen sized bed, facing the pillows and his tiny boyfriend. Marley stood there, quietly looking into the giant manâs eyes. He searched the giant blues, a sense of wonder in those tiny pupils. Saturn was huge. Or was Marley just too small? It was an interesting thought. For Marleyâs entire life, he was kept from the giant species, his mother in particular had a problem with giants and didnât think her human son should have relationships with giants. Whatever would she say if she knew what he was doing? When he was applying for college, he somehow got into the most prestigious school in the country. He was 19 years old, extremely excited, and so ready to go out into the world! The only issue: the school was multi species. That meant that he would have to study around giants as well as humans. Which meant that his mother would definitely not approve of his school choice. Alas, after a lot of begging and pleading, he was sent off on his own to find his way through the world once his mom realized that he would go regardless of what she felt. This school was an opportunity of a life time, and what harm could being around giants cause? He told her he would be good and stick to other humans in his program. That was until he met Saturn. Tall, buff, and extremely handsome, he was a breath of fresh air that made him feel so rebellious. So what if his mom would never approve of such a friendship? Let alone⌠a relationship⌠I mean, come on. He was a guy, and he was a giant, and his mother didnât approve of either of those scenarios. Itâs not like he felt that she would abandon him or anything, but she had made it clear that he was to marry a human woman and give her all the grandchildren one day to carry on the family line, to make her and the rest of the family proud. While Marley was thinking these thoughts, Saturn gave him a soft smirk.
âAre you feeling ok? I know your nervous, is there anything I can do to make you feel more at ease darling?â Saturn asked, tilting his massive head in question. Marvin was feeling conflicted to say the least. Him and Saturn were dating, yes, but it was the first time that he felt somewhat uncomfortable and worried about how things were. The first meeting, the handholding, the smiles they shared⌠nothing was as intense as this, sitting alone on a bed while talking late into the night. It felt so good to let out his feelings for Saturn and it was like nothing he had ever felt before. At the exact same time, he had never been alone and intimate with a giant. It wasnât his first time seeing a giant when he left his city, no, but he had never even thought about becoming close with a giant. Why would he? He had human friends, human only cities, he did not expect to fall so hard for a giant man. His heart wanted Saturn with such longing. Marvin cleared his throat, feeling awkward and like he was giving off the wrong vibe.
âIâm sorry if I seem that way. I donât think itâs you, itâs just that, I had never been around giants before you. And itâs like a whole new experience, trying to be ok with feeling so vulnerable, not that itâs a bad thing⌠oh gosh, Iâm rambling! What I mean to say SaturnâŚâ Marvin fumbled with his words. Saturn was always so patient with him. In the 4 months they had known each other, he had felt more seen and heard than any other time in his life. Saturn was so full of wild energy that made him feel so alive.
Saturn thought for a moment, before speaking.
âI can understand where youâre coming from. When I was growing up, I had few experiences with humans. This is something Iâm learning too.â
On the walk to Saturnâs dorm room, He was ok with being carried and having dinner with the giant. After they had eaten, Saturn asked Marley if they could cuddle, which was a first for the both of them. He had nervously said yes, which led them to their current situation on Saturnâs bed. He wasnât going to mess this up for either of them! Marley wanted this. Even if his body was scared of feeling so small, his mind knew that there was nothing to fear around Saturn. He wasnât stupid, giants were extremely powerful beings and Saturn could kill him in an instant, yet he knew that he could trust the humongous man that had shown him such care. When he talked to Saturn, the large eyes never left his own, and he never ever touched him without his permission. He was so grateful that they had taken things slow, because it was kinda scary being small. After a moment or two, Saturn asked,
âCan I⌠touch you? I promise to be gentle, I would never hurt you Marley. I promise.â
Saturn spoke with such sincereness. From the heart. It dripped with honesty, a voice like honey, so sweet and deep. He nodded. It felt right to say yes to Saturn. After a short consideration, Saturn lifted his left hand and ever so slowly reached out to Marley, staring into his eyes to make sure he was ok with this. Marley stared at his massive hand coming towards him. This part was normal and he was used to being carried by Saturn by now. It was when his hand wrapped around his shoulders, around his face, when he suddenly felt overwhelmed with emotion. All his life, his mother had been so wrong. Giants were amazing. Saturn was amazing. The long heavy fingers gave him a slight squeeze, pressing against his body with a warm pressure. The skin was so comfortable against his, never hurting, only making him feel safe. Against his will, a tear dropped down Marleyâs face. He grabbed onto Saturnâs finger and leaned into it. He thought that Saturn would question why he was crying, but he simply brushed the tear away with his thumb, making Marley feel incredibly understood.
âMy adorable little Marley. I will protect you.â He said, leaning down and placing a kiss on Marleyâs cheek. His face blushed bright red and Saturn chuckled at his tiny boyfriend. Marley may have been physically tiny compared to Saturn, but he was the first person to show him such love and respect.
