you and James had gone out to dinner tonight for your anniversary, some nice Italian place in town that he’d been wanting to take you to, but now you were both back in the flat together.
once the door was shut behind you both, James was on you instantly. his hands moved quick, ridding you of your clothes before pressing kisses across your body.
he walked you backwards throughout the flat, making his way into the bedroom and easily getting you down onto the bed.
a breathless laugh fell from your lips at the look in his eyes, a knowing smirk threatening to tug at his lips while he moved to settle between your thighs.
his knees kept your thighs spread, his body acting as a sheild from the dim light pouring in through the still open curtains.
“you’re beautiful”
James whispered, his eyes moving from your face and then down your body, a low hum of approval falling from his lips.
“and you’re all mine”
he let out a low whistle as your hips bucked towards him, a silent plea for him to finally touch you.
and he did.
his left hand moved between your thighs, two of his fingers moving through the wetness that had gathered there, before he drew a slow circle against your clit.
you broke out into a moan at his touch, your hips bucking into his fingers as he started a steady rhythm, eliciting a whole string of moans.
“sound beautiful too”
James told against your lips, his fingers making another draw against your clit, before there was a rap at the front door.
he huffed in frustration, trying to continue his rhythm and ignore it, but the sound persisted.
a sigh fell from his lips, his fingers reluctantly leaving you while he pressed a kiss to your lips and whispered a soft apology.
“i’m sorry, sweetheart.. just, wait for me. okay?”
you nodded at his words, watching as he moved out of the room and towards the front door.
the sound of James talking was muffled, but you had other ideas than listening to their conversation.
carefully, your hand slid down your body and between your thighs, easily picking up the rhythm and pace he had just abandoned.
pleasure was instant throughout your body, a desperate spark igniting in your core while your back arched off of the bed.
your head lulled back into the pillows, chewing on your bottom lip to muffle your moans as pleasure coursed through your body.
James returned after a long minute, his socked feet padding across the carpeted floor before he stopped dead in his tracks.
his eyes roved across your body, watching the desperate draw of your fingers.
“i thought i told you to wait”
you met his eyes with a needy look, your free hand held out to him. he took your hand and moved closer, resuming his previous position between your legs.
the fingers you had on your clit stopped at his closeness, but it seemed to spark him with an idea.
a flicker of mischief twinkled in his eyes as he leaned in to kiss you, the heat from his body adding to the heat bubbling inside you, before James murmured.
“don’t stop on my account, make yourself feel good”
a moan fell from your lips at his request but you nodded, continuing to circle your clit while your head fell back into the pillows.
“why can’t you do it?”
you asked, only for James to chuckle in response.
his lips pressed to yours in another kiss, deeper than his previous kisses, his tongue pushing into your mouth to move against yours and in time with your fingers.
each pass of your fingers stoked the warmth bubbling inside, your hips instinctively rocking into the friction with another moan.
when James finally broke the kiss, he chuckled softly against your lips.
“you started, you need to finish”
the heat in your core spread at his words, sending a tingly feeling up your spine before he continued on.
“know you can do it”
your fingers continued, James’ lips pressing to yours again while your hips shifted, allowing you to push in a finger.
he groaned at the look of pleasure breaking across your face, your eyes screwed shut and your lips parted in a low moan.
“that’s it, good girl”
his lips crashed against yours as you hooked your fingers, causing your hips to jerk up off of the bed while James hummed.
“would feel better if it was your fingers..”
you told, earning a soft chuckle from him, but he made no effort to act on your claim.
James kissed you again and again, each kiss adding to the buzz of pleasure in your gut.
“want you to make yourself cum, and then i’ll fuck you”
any protest died on your tongue in that moment, the pleasure mounting to a fever pitch, and it only seemed to make James’ smirk widen.
he watched as you broke into another moan, your fingers pumping in a rhythmic pace while his right hand moved to your hip, squeezing softly.
your fingers crooked again, rubbing against that one spot while your thumb moved lazily against your clit.
“i know you’re close, let it happen”
his words didn’t receive a reply as you continued, focusing on the pleasure while the coil in your core wound tighter.
each moan that fell from your lips grew breathier and needier, a testament to how close you were getting.
“look how pretty are when you’re about to come”
it only took a couple more pumps of your fingers and a draw of your thumb before you were falling over the edge, your walls spasming around your own fingers.
“there we go, that’s my girl”
he murmured, pressing another kiss to your lips while your orgasm crashed over you. heat flooded throughout your body and a blissful feeling washing over you, leaving you limp beneath him.
the warmth of your peak was instantaneous, a lazy smile gracing your face while James chuckled softly against your lips.
both of you stayed like that for a long minute, your chest heaving with your heavy breaths, before you withdrew your fingers.
James, however, moved to lift your hand to his mouth. his lips closed around your fingers and his eyes twinkled with that same mischief as before, earning a strangled moan from you.
he hummed around your fingers, his tongue weaving over both digits as he sucked them clean.
when he did pull off of your fingers, he let out an appreciative groan.
“what if i want a taste now? a proper taste?”
you shoved at his shoulder, before sliding your hands down his body, quickly unfastening his belt and slipping your hand under his waistband.
your fingers wrapped around him, pumping slowly and earning another groan from him.
no i'm rewatching soa and i'm on s2e12, i don't remember kozik appearing this early?? like i know he's a main/reoccurring character fully in s3, just screamed with joy at seeing him

you and Mattheo hadn’t spoken properly all week, the looming dread of finals putting a damper on your relationship.
so now that your final exam was over, and there just so happened to be a party tonight, you chose to reconcile your ‘fractured’ bond.
it wasn’t as if he hated you all of a sudden, he had always gotten like this when it came to a big test or exam, even if he played the part of not caring for his academics.
he’d pressed a kiss to your temple every morning before getting out of bed, he’d ask his friends to check up on you, hell he’d even left one of his study periods just to be in the flat with you as you studied.
neither of you were the fault, but you wanted to fix the small strain.
the party was tonight and Mattheo was already out with Theo, which left you to get dressed alone and without his wandering hands.
you got dressed with Mattheo in mind, and your plan of trying to reconcile your relationship and intimacy.
his gaze was the first thing you found once you arrived at the party, a small smile grazing your lips as his eyes tracked down your body.
a group of people walked by Mattheo, causing his trained gaze on you to falter, and when they moved, you weren’t in the same spot.
Mattheo’s scoff would’ve been audible if it wasn’t for the music of the party, but you knew him well enough to know he wasn’t enjoying losing you in the crowd.
your gaze continued to follow him even as your friends found you in the crowd, a knowing smirk on their faces as you finally tore your gaze away from Mattheo.
“he asked about you”
one of your friends told, pointing towards Mattheo and Theo, their conversation something you couldn’t decipher, but with the way Mattheo was still looking around the room, it was a hint that it was about you.
“he was wondering when you’d show up, go over to him”
she continued, smiling to herself as your eyes drifted back to Mattheo, watching as he scanned the room looking for you.
but then your friend was continuing, speaking into the rim of her drink.
“i can send him over here, if you’d like? i know he’d want to see you”
her question went unanswered as you continued to eye Mattheo, shamelessly letting yourself admire your boyfriend while he talked to Theo.
he wasn’t wearing anything extravagant, just a plain white t-shirt and a pair of jeans, but he made it look good. or maybe it was just him, you weren’t sure.
but what you were sure about, was that your boyfriend looked really good.
“yeah.. tell him where i am”
you managed after a long minute, your eyes staying firmly planted on him while your friend laughed.
she nudged at your side before making her way through the crowd and towards Mattheo, whispering to him before his eyes were instantly on you again.
a giddy thrill ran through you once he finally found you, his smirk bright while he murmured back to your friend.
he said something to Theo, but then he was making his way through the crowd and towards you.
“mm hi handsome”
you greeted, making Mattheo chuckle while cradling your face in his left hand, allowing him to tilt your head towards him.
the change in angle allowed him to kiss you fiercely, your lips parted in a soft laugh before he whispered against your lips.
“hi yourself, you’re beautiful baby”
Mattheo was kissing you again before you could reply or push him away, not that you wanted to, even if the allure of teasing him was bubbling within.
his thumb made a pass across your cheek as he broke the kiss, though he didn’t stray far. he stayed a hairsbreadth away, the hand that was previously holding his drink now resting firmly on your hip.
he pulled your body against his, earning another laugh from you while your arms moved around his neck.
“you disappeared while i was getting a good look at you”
as if to accentuate his words, the hand on your hip moved to the curve of your ass, earning a gasp and a soft smack to his shoulder.
“Mattheo!”
he only chuckled in response, his lips pressing to yours in another kiss while he grabbed a handful of your ass, unwilling to move his hand away.
kisses like this in public were always Mattheo’s thing, even with your protests and complaints of people seeing.
it was his thing, always had been.
and it had always been his way of showing the world he was yours.
when he broke the kiss, he moved his head to the side of yours, his lips grazing against your ear as he whispered.
“meet me in the bathroom in five minutes”
the innuendo was clear in his words, and the flicker of want it caused in your core didn’t go unnoticed by him.
his smirk widened as he kissed you again, his left hand cradling your face to deepen the embrace before he abruptly pulled back.
you gasped, readying to throw a protest at him, but he was gone before you could muster the words together.
Mattheo made his way through the crowd, everyone parting like the red sea as he made his way out of the party and down the hall.
he cast a final glance back at you, but then he was gone.
a sigh fell from your lips, a mix of disbelief and wanting, while a smile began to pull at your lips.
you took a minute to compose yourself, easily finishing off your drink before you began to trail after Mattheo.
once inside the bathroom, the music from the party dulled down, now a muffled sound while Mattheo closed the distance towards you.
“hey gorgeous”
he greeted, his hands finding your hips again while his lips crashed against yours, kissing you deeply and eliciting a soft moan.
his right arm drew tight around your waist while his left hand reached for the lock on the bathroom door, his lips only returning to yours when the lock clicked.
“here? really?”
Mattheo only nodded, offering a small hum between kisses, while your arms wound around his neck.
another moan slipped from your lips as he moved you to sit on the sink counter, his body slotted between your legs and a hungry glint flickering in his eyes.
“if that’s okay?”
when you nodded, his hands moved quick, bunching up your dress and easily hooking his thumbs into the waistband of your underwear.
he tugged them down slowly, groaning to himself as he bared you to his gaze, before he murmured again.
“i’ll make it up to you, but right now, i need you.. it’s been too long, baby”

you and Angel were sat at the bar together, but your conversation had quickly turned from something innocent and friendly.
his fingers trailed along your inner thigh, teasing along the hem of your skirt before you grabbed at his wrist.
“what, baby?”
he asked with a smirk, making you roll your eyes and push his hand away.
“what’s wrong?”
Angel added, his hand moving to cradle your face while you shook your head, carefully leaning into him and kissing him softly.
the room around you was forgotten at the press of his lips to yours, his right hand still cradling your face while his left moved back to your leg.
it started soft, his palm warm against your knee, but then he was sliding his hand up your leg until it disappeared under your skirt.
a gasp fell from your lips, your eyes screwed shut and Angel’s smirk widening.
“is this okay, hermosa?”
you could only nod in response, no care for anyone else in the room seeing while Angel continued to kiss you.
his body shielded yours from the rest of the room, your spot at the bar had the window behind you, but there was no one else there to see what was happening between you both.
you also knew Angel wouldn’t be trying this if he wasn’t sure of your safety in the act.
he teased his fingers along the hem of your skirt, dipping underneath and up your thigh until they trailed across the centre of your underwear.
a gasp slipped from your lips and your hips rocked towards his hand, causing his smirk to widen as he leaned in to kiss you.
“can i touch you here?”
his question went unanswered for a minute, but when you finally managed to compose yourself, you whispered against his lips.
“please touch me.. just don’t be a tease”
Angel chuckled, amusement twinkling in his eyes as he stole another kiss.
the room around you was bustling with life, but you were only focused on him and the torturous feeling of his fingers against your still clothed core.
carefully, Angel slipped his fingers under the waistband of your underwear. the heat of his palm against you caused another gasp to fall from your lips, more desperate this time while he chuckled to himself.
his middle and ring fingers slid through your folds, easily gathering your wetness on his fingertips before he pressed them to your clit.
he slowly started to draw figure eights into your flesh, using your wetness to ease his motions while you bit down on your bottom lip to muffle your moans.
everything and everyone else in the clubhouse was forgotten as the feeling of Angel’s fingers took over all of your senses, focusing solely on the pleasure he was giving you with every circle of his fingers.
your hips bucked towards his touch, making him chuckle to himself while he caught your lips in another kiss, helping to ease the moans threatening to spill free.
“i’m right here, hermosa”
Angel murmured, his lips pressing more insistently against yours as he easily slipped a finger into you, pumping it in time with his thumb now on your clit.
“oh Angel..”
you mewled against his lips, your lips parted but he shook his head, already leaning back into you to muffle the sounds he usually fought so hard to elicit from your lips.
his fingers worked you in a torturous rhythm, spreading heat and warmth throughout your body at a dizzying rate.
“we shouldn’t..”
you tried, but you cut yourself off with another moan that you had to force back.
Angel was cocky, he always had been, but this was a completely new level. you had been daring with your intimacy before, this however, was treading on a line you were frankly scared to cross.
“i’m right here, i’m not gonna let anything happen to you, baby”
he told, nodding along with you as the words registered in your head, despite the fact he was already slipping in a second finger.
heat bloomed throughout your body, the warmth in your belly continuing to be stoked with every lazily pump of his fingers.
his lips descended on yours again while his free hand cradled your face, tilting your head towards him to allow him to deepen the kiss further.
the wetness between your thighs grew louder with every pump of his fingers, adding to the nerves bubbling inside you of getting caught, but the clubhouse around you both drowned the sound out.
your walls fluttered around his digits as someone moved behind Angel, but he made no attempts at stopping.
“Angel..”
his name fell from your lips in a breathless plea, earning a soft chuckle from him before he was back on you, kissing you again with more hunger.
“no one’s watching”
he muttered into the kiss, his lips barely breaking away from yours long enough for you to try and get in another complaint.
a satisfied grin spread across his face as your walls fluttered around him again, pleasure blossoming across your face.
“that’s it, i’ve got you”
Angel urged, his fingers crooking against that one spot that usually would’ve had you moaning out loud and lewd.
each press and crook of his fingers pushed you closer, your walls unyielding around him as his thumb continued on your clit.
it was as if your body was a perfectly coiled spring, and Angel would be the reason it would bounce into that sea of bliss and pleasure.
“let go, querida”
his thumb made another pass around your clit, working in time with every crook and pump of his fingers.
your thighs squeezed shut around his hand, holding him in place as his fingers moved against that one spot that had you biting into your bottom lip to stifle another moan.
if anyone was watching, they’d for sure know what was happening, and it seemed to add to your peak as you finally hit your crescendo.
everything that had been building you up finally snapped.
your vision started to turn white at the edges while your head fell forwards to rest on Angel’s shoulder, his free hand cradling the back of your head as your orgasm washed through you.
he pumped his fingers again, despite your walls spasming rapidly around them, helping to coax you through your orgasm.
“that’s it, baby”
Angel murmured, using your release to help pump his fingers for a few more lazy thrusts, until he was withdrawing them with a lazy smirk.
you finally sat back after a minute, watching Angel lift his hand to his mouth and close his lips around the soaked digits.
a ringing started in your ears while your cheeks filled with heat, the erotic show so public as if Angel didn’t care if people knew.
his lips parted as he began sucking and licking his fingers clean, only pulling off of them with a wet pop when you shoved at his shoulder.
“mm you taste good”
you rolled your eyes at him, slowly turning back to the bar despite Angel still smirking over at you, a knowing and mischievous glint still in his eyes.
he bought you another drink, allowing you some space as the volume of the clubhouse finally came back to you, engulfing you as it usually did whenever you were around.
but it was BIshop’s voice on the other side of Angel that had your attention.
“your girl okay?”
Angel’s response was a small chuckle and nod, his hand making its way to your thigh even before BIshop left, but when he did finally leave, Angel was back in your space.
a gasp fell from your lips as his breath fanned across your neck and his lips pressed to the curve of your neck, all while his fingers trailed teasingly across the skin of your thigh.
“he was just making sure you’re okay”
you shot him a questioning look but he shook his head, finishing off his drink and standing from the barstool to hold a hand out.
he hummed as you took his hand and let him walk you outside and towards his bike, the loudness of the clubhouse finally muffled.
“..everyone thinks we’re dating, that’s why”
his eyes softened at the look of realisation that crossed your features, but he was breaking into a laugh as you shoved him and exclaimed his name.
“hey, you’re pretty much my girlfriend. and as your boyfriend, i want to take you home..”

you and Tony had gone to drinks after work today with McGee and Ziva, but the night ended early when someone started flirting with you when Tony went to get the next round.
he practically dragged you back to his place and into bed, your protests and teases about his jealousy falling on deaf ears.
Tony moved quickly, getting you naked on the bed beneath him with a haste you only ever seen when he wanted to remind you that you’re his.
“Tony!”
you whined, pushing at his shoulders as he started to pepper kisses down your body until he settled on his stomach between your legs.
“i can’t wait.. i need you to fuck me”
his smirk widened at your words, amusement twinkling in his eyes while you tried pulling him up and into another kiss.
but he done as you asked.
Tony moved between your legs, his hands working open his belt as he shoved down and off his bottoms, before he moved the head of his cock through your wetness.
“someone’s needy”
he teased, positioning himself at your entrance and earning a breathy moan from you in response.
it had been days since you and Tony were last intimate, so the heat and tension had built between you, and stoked Tony’s jealousy.
when Tony started to push in, a breathy moan fell from your lips while your fingers dug into his shoulders.
his body shifted against yours as you adjusted to the feeling of him inside again after your week apart, your walls fluttering around him as he slowly bottomed out.
“oh Tony..”
you whined, head lulled to the side while his lips pressed to yours in another kiss, softer this time despite his burning jealousy.
“i’m right here”
he murmured, humming as your arms moved around his neck to pull him impossibly closer to you.
Tony only started to move once you gave him the go ahead, his thrusts starting slow and steady despite the need burning inside him.
his hips pulled back until only the head of his cock remained inside, earning a breathy gasp from you, before he was pushing back in and continuing his pace.
the hand he had under your knee pulled your leg higher around his hip, allowing him to deepen the angle before another loud moan to fall from your lips.
“you feel so good, baby”
you murmured, your fingers moving into his hair to pull him down and into another kiss before your head lolled back into the pillows, breaking the kiss and causing a groan to leave Tony.
he chuckled softly, already leaning in to kiss you again while your cunt fluttered around him.
Tony continued his thrusts, each moan that fell from your lips adding to his pleasure and the need to claim you.
it was always the same when Tony got jealous.
he’d take you home and fuck you so good that no other man would be on your mind, not that they were, but he always enjoyed the reminder that you were his and his alone.
“i’m right here, baby”
Tony murmured, his voice dropping an octave as another groan falling from his lips.
each snap of his hips was relentless, easily filling the room with the steady sound of skin slapping on skin.
the next groan that fell from Tony’s lips was desperate, as if the sight and sound of you breaking beneath him was all it took.
and in a way, it was.
“you’re mine..”
he grunted, groaning as your walls fluttered again and your arms tightened around his neck, clinging to him like a lifeline.
every thrust he gave pushed you closer and closer, causing your eyes to roll back into your head and your walls to give another sensitive flutter around him.
“that’s it..”
Tony kissed you again, deep and hungry, while his thrusts continued their relentless pace.
the steady rock of his hips had your walls fluttering rapidly around his cock, greedily pulling him in deeper with every thrust.
his body shifted against yours, pushing in deeper and sharper, and causing the head of his cock to hit that one spot that had tingles shooting down your spine.
your eyes screwed shut at the pleasure coursing throughout your body, unable to form any words as another moan tore from your chest.
“cum for me, baby”
he kissed you again and again, his tongue pushing into your mouth to move against yours in time with each thrust he delivered, muffling the next slew of moans to tumble from your lips.
Tony continued to rock into you, his pace unrelenting and the head of his cock hitting that one spot over and over until it all became too much.
his name fell from your lips in a breathless plea, the pleasure becoming too much before you found yourself cresting over the edge.
both of you moaned out at the feeling, your walls rippling around him and your relase soaking his cock.
“oh fuck!”
you moaned, the sudden tightness of your cunt causing Tony’s thrusts to falter, while a blissful and euphoric feeling flooded your body.
he groaned again, his lips pressing to yours in another deep kiss as he tried to focus on the feeling of you around him.
the wetness of your release helped ease his now rhythmless thrusts, your fingers brushing carefully through his hair while your lips pressed to his in a softer kiss.
“come in me. i need you to fill me up”
Tony broke into a groan at your words, his hips rocking forwards one last time before he followed you over the edge.
his forehead dropped to your shoulder while his left hand kept your leg high around his waist, using the last remnants of his stamina to push in hard and deep.
“you’re mine. you’ve always been mine”
he grunted, his face nuzzled into your throat as he found his release in your wet warmth.
you kissed him again as your walls rippled around him, his cock throbbing inside you with one final and shallow thrust, before he spilled himself into you.
another groan left him as his body fell limp against yours, your fingers moving through his hair while Tony lay against you.
both of you stayed like that for a long minute, Tony’s head on your shoulder and his lips pressing a soft kiss to your skin, allowing himself to soften in the sanctuary of your hold.
“you feel better now?”
instead of answering, he only nodded in response, his lips pressing another kiss to your skin before you continued.
“stop your jealous spats, i only want you, you know this Tony”
he lifted his head at your words, a lazy smirk on his face as he slowly leaned into you, kissing you deeply.
his body shifted against yours, more of his weight settling against you as he spoke.
“what’s the harm in making it known you’re mine? making sure you remember..”
