It was comforting to be able to give up some of the control they so desperately clung to in life. To trust someone enough to let them take control, to give Denna all of themself, and let her do whatever she wished. And they knew that she trusted them in the same way, which perhaps made it even more intensely beautiful. So much had happened in the few hours they had been reunited, nearly overwhelming in the amount they were feeling, but in the best way possible. Never before had they felt like this with anyone else, and never before had they been comfortable giving so much of themself. It was freeing, to know that they could both explore together, try things they had never imagined, and know that the other would be there the whole way, accepting every little thing that happened. And it had all happened so fast, without searching it out, which perhaps made it even more glorious. They hoped that she felt all they did, the power of it, the freedom, the confidence, and they thought she did, just from the way she had slipped so easily into the role they had offered her. That was just as attractive as any physical motion she could make, to be quite honest.

She might’ve been worried that she wasn’t going to know what to do, but it was clear that she was doing exactly what they liked, given the noises they couldn’t keep from escaping their lips. As she kept moving, relaxing her throat and taking all of them in her mouth, they let out a loud moan, throwing their head back at the sensation, hand pulling her hair unconsciously from the sensation. They could feel the pleasure building up in the pit of their stomach, the tightness growing, and they knew that it wasn’t going to be long before they were pushed over the edge again. It was amazing to think that Denna had been able to do all of this to them, to give them not one but two orgasms in no time at all. It was a testament to how much they wanted her, how much they loved her, that even their body reacted in such a way so easily. She pulled back for a second, and they met her eyes as her hand found their hardness again, stroking as she spoke. And, fuck, if those words weren’t some of the hottest they had ever heard, they didn’t know what else was. All they could do was nod, and lean down and kiss her briefly, sloppy, open mouthed, tasting themself on her tongue, before letting go again.

As soon as she took their length in her mouth again, they knew it was about to be over. They screwed their eyes shut, fingers still tangled in her hair, savoring the feeling of her mouth around them for another long moment, before their eyes snapped open again and they looked down at her. “Fuck, D, I’m close,” they breathed, words shaky. Their hand finally left her hair, as if to say that she should stop now. One of their hands went to their hardness, picking up speed, moving closer and closer to the edge by the second, but their other, moved down to Denna’s collarbone and onward, fingers dancing briefly over her chest. “There, stay there,” they muttered, voice husky, full of pleasure, as they kept going. It only took another few strokes before they were coming with a loud moan that sounded a lot like Denna’s name, finishing over her chest. Their other hand clung to her shoulder, as if they might fall to the floor if they couldn’t keep a hold of her, as they rode out the waves of the orgasm out, breathing heavily.

Never in her life Denna could have imagined how enticing some sounds could be. Touches, words, images even; that was conventional, that was what everyone talked about when it came to turn ons. Sounds, however, was something she was discovering just now. Wasn’t that what she had been doing with Heath all long, though? Exploring the things they liked, but also the ones she did; doing things she had never thought she’d do. Never before she had felt such an intense desire for someone, never before she had dared to send someone a video like she had done with them, or to take control in the way she was doing now. But most importantly, she had never been in love like this, or imagined a future with someone like the one she was imagining with Heath. Even though they weren’t even public yet, she could see herself holding their hand, going to Cerberus with them and kissing their neck softly while they danced, everyone wondered how on Earth someone like her, who brought the spring everywhere she went as her father used to say, had managed to win over a god of shadows like they were. She had no idea. Denna had no clue what Heath had seen in her in the first place; but she was grateful that it had happened. 

The noises that left their mouth as she swirled her tongue against their length were definitely one of the hottest things she had heard in her life. That was what she was learning, the power that something as simple as their sounds had over her. Perhaps she was the one taking control right now, but that didn’t mean that she wasn’t utterly and completely theirs. As her throat relaxed, she grew bolder, quickly leaving her hand aside and take all of them inside her mouth. Their loud moan and their fingers pulling her hair didn’t go unnoticed, and the feeling was so delicious that she had to let a moan escape as well, the vibrations of her voice mixing with the movements of her tongue. Denna wasn’t an expert, but she could tell that they were close even before they spoke. When they finally let go of her hair, she pulled back once again, staying close, waiting for them to tell her where they wanted her. That was exactly what they did. The sight of Heath touching themself, eyes so focused on her, filled with a lust close to hunger, was almost too much to handle. Without even really thinking about it, her fingers moved between her legs, moving in circles over her own wetness, causing soft moans of her own. 

It wasn’t long before they were coming, making a mess of her chest and her breasts. A mess that she didn’t mind the slightest bit. Her hand left her centre, and she scooted a bit closer to reach up and kiss them softly. “I love you, I love you. I can’t stop saying it.” There was a smile swallowed by the kiss she placed on their lips. “I’m going to clean myself up, and after that, we can eat something, maybe take a nap?”, she said, standing up and walking towards the bathroom. It was still raining outside, the skies over Mount Wells grey and gloomy; but inside Heath’s apartment there was an air of bliss all around. It was almost unbelievable it was not even time for dinner yet. Denna came back to the room, still naked, her hair still damp because of the shower, and she felt as if she was glowing. “You know-”, she started, settling down next to them. “I promise it’s not just about the orgasms, but this has been one of the happiest days of my life.”

Somehow they hadn’t realized before this moment just how hot they found it to give up some of the control they were always clinging to. In all honesty, they had never really thought about the fact that they tried so hard to control every part of their life, and that was maybe half of the stress they felt, from the need to always have everything under control. It seemed that because of that, it felt even better to let Denna take control in this situation, put themself at her mercy, beg her to give them what they needed. One of the biggest things being around Denna have given them was the comfort to feel like they didn’t need to put up an act, that they didn’t need to be constantly worrying about every little part of their life, and apparently now was no different, although they doubted either of them could’ve anticipated this was coming. It was like being with her in the privacy of their apartment, being so comfortable with her, they didn’t have to think, they could just do. It just so happened that the thing their mind unconsciously wanted to do in this moment was to give up control, to let their roles be reversed and to just be, without thinking at all about anything other than doing whatever Denna asked, and having that same pleasure form her.

Once they were finished and had their thoughts back in order again, Heath was certain they were going to be shocked at themself, but now it just felt like the most natural thing in the world. Even better, it seemed like Denna was enjoying the reversal as much as they were, her confidence as she moved against them, kissed them, telling them as much. In a way, this whole thing seemed to be about more than the two of them just letting themselves reverse their roles in intimacy, it was about their lives. Part of the reason Heath loved Cerberus so much was because being there gave them the chance to give up on the expectations and just be free, even if they had to hide certain things even there. And they were well aware that so much had changed in Denna’s life that what she had been trying to do for the past months was to have that control that she didn’t feel like she had. And here they both were now, giving each other the chance at what they were both needed, even in a situation so charged. It only helped that it was turning them on even more to see Denna assert her dominance, her words doing as much to them as the feeling of her wetness against them.

They let out a low moan as she sucked at the sensitive skin on their neck, her words sending a shiver of pleasure through their body that made their hips jerk upward involuntarily, desperate for the contact. “You are a merciful goddess, thank you,” they breathed as her lips started traveling down their chest, unable to form any real coherent throughts in that moment, due to the anticipation, the sensation. She didn’t waste any time finally climbing off of their lap, and going down to her knees in front of them, spreading their legs apart to give her access. The teasing of her lips moving down their chest, down their stomach, then her tongue playing along their inner thigh was pure torture in the best way possible, and already they couldn’t take their eyes off of her knowing what was about to happen. Just when they thought they couldn’t wait any longer, she finally wrapped a hand around their hardness, leaning forward to run her tongue all the way from the base to the tip, causing them to throw their head back, eyes closed, and let out a long, obscene moan from the feeling. They didn’t have the chance to think of it, though, before she took them in her mouth finally, slowly starting to move up and down. The sensation drew a loud gasp of pleasure from their lips that turned into a groan of sorts, as one of their hands unconsciously moved to her hair, fingers tangling in the still wet strands. “Denna, you feel so fucking good. Your mouth, fuck,” they muttered, looking back down at her in awe, the sight better than any they’d seen before. They could already tell they weren’t going to last very long, no matter how recently they had already come before. As she quickened her pace, they let out small noises of pleasure along with her movements, completely at her mercy.

Thank you, they said, almost like begging, as if she was a true goddess and they were her dutiful servant. It wasn’t something Denna had never thought she would enjoy, but it turned out the sensation of it was exhilarating. It was also incredibly intense to realise how much Heath trusted her in order to do this, to let her take the reins of the situation and give up control. It was as much as she trusted them, enough to show them this side of her as she discovered herself. Their relationship was going to become something else after this day, and not only because they had told each other that they were in love, or because they had been open in a way they hadn’t with anyone else; but because they weren’t afraid. Neither of them was afraid to explore, to try new things, to discover new sides of themselves next to one another. If they had achieved that level of loyalty, then Denna was absolutely sure they could overcome any difficult that might present itself - including telling people how they felt, and what they were doing. 

That was going to be a talk for another time, though. She knew their Valentine’s Day surprise needed to happen first, the day they were going to ask her to date them. It was only a formality, obviously, since they had already said in so many words that they were serious about each other. However, the fact that Heath was so eager to take this step by step, to savour every moment and to make sure she was okay with everything that was happening, just made her love them even more. No one knew what was going to happen in the future, what hardships they were going to have to face, both together and individually. Nonetheless, right now, as she trailed a path of kisses down their body, feeling their pleasure increase by the second, the sounds coming out of their mouths; Denna felt invincible. It was like nothing she had experienced before, the notion that love could make you stronger, that it could make you believe in yourself. It was a thought out of a proper Victorian romance novel, something she wanted to believe in, but couldn’t bring herself to. At least not until she had fallen for Heath, and her entire life had been turned upside down. 

All her initial fears, about ruining this and being awful at it, were pushed away immediately when she heard their words. They were enjoying it, truly, and even if they were just saying that to make her feel better, the sounds that followed when she quickened her pace couldn’t be fake. She kept moving, relaxing her throat and taking their whole length in, pressing her tongue against them, moaning softly whenever their fingers tangled further in her hair. Denna wasn’t an expert, obviously, but she could realise that they weren’t going to last long, not if she kept doing this. Pulling back briefly, replacing her moving mouth with her hand, she looked up at them for a second. “Let me know. You can come anywhere you want.” It was pretty obvious what she was referring to. This whole thing they were sharing had been thoroughly exciting, but she was certain she wasn’t ready for them to come inside her mouth. Once the warning was issued, she leaned in once more, returning to the quick pace she was keeping before she had stopped.

“I love you, too, more than I’ve got the words to say,” they muttered in reply, smiling into the kiss just as she did. Everything that she said sent a wave of fondness rushing over them, telling them just how amazing and incredible this was for both of them. They felt the same, too, even it was perhaps in a slightly different way when it came to the physical aspects of their relationship. But all of this sort of thing had never been attached to love for them, it was always about a release or a distraction or a bit of fun. This was so much more, and they’d never felt that with anyone else before her. And he knew from what she had told him about her own sexuality just how big it was for her to feel so comfortable with them, to want to be with them because she wanted to be with them, and no other reason. They were so grateful for the opportunity to be that for Denna, even if they had never planned for any of this to happen. “I didn’t think anything like this was possible, either. I never realized what it was like to feel like this with anyone before. And I’m glad I can be that person for you, and I want to keep being that person for you for as long as you’ll let me. Because I’ve never felt quite like this before either,” they said, voice soft, gentle as the way they stroked her hair lightly as she buried her head in their chest, wrapping their arms around her too. It was a tender moment, starkly different from everything else they had shared, but just as meaningful, because they could feel her gratefulness in it. And they hoped that she felt the same from them. When she pulled back again, they looked down at her with a fond, but somewhat mischievous smile on their lips. “Now, give me all the payback you want,” Heath laughed, more than eager to give her the chance to take the lead in her own way.

They were glad to see that she got their point in asking her where she wanted them, not just to answer that question, but to take the horse by the reins. And she did exactly that, slowly pulling the towel off and throwing it on the floor, leaving them both standing there for each other to see in the middle of their room. They couldn’t help the way their eyes trailed down her figure, taking her curves in, but they hardly had the chance, as when she spoke again her voice was commanding. The sort of assertiveness that was in her tone did something to them, seemed to hit their very core, shock them into action, and then were literally ready to fall on the bed to do what she said. But before they could do so, she guided them backward with a firm hand, until their legs hit the mattress and they were forced to sit down on the edge of it. It was hot, hotter than they could’ve even imagined it would be to be commanded by her. Even better, though, she straddled their legs, her lips at their throat, her wetness moving against their hardness ever so slightly, but enough to make them let out a loud gasp, hands immediately going to grip her hips. That in and of itself was nearly enough to make them come on the spot.

Their eyes closed from the feeling, willing themself not to come right then and there knowing what was coming next. Easier said than done, considering now they couldn’t help but think about what it would be like when they finally slept together, what it would be like to feel her wetness cover them, have her sitting there on their lap like this maybe, but taking it a step further. It was something to look forward to for sure, but for now, they were thinking about her mouth, especially as she said their name, shaky and full of desire. Her words brought them back from their thoughts, more struck by the present sensation she was giving them, thinking of what the next step would be. Heath wasn’t sure their voice would be strong enough to form a coherent sentence, but her command was enough to make them want to find the words to describe just that, to make her know just how much they wanted what she had offered them, how desperate they were for her. “Fuck, Denna, I want this so badly, I want you so badly. I want to know what it’ll feel like to have your lips surround me. I want to know what you’ll look between my legs. Please,” they breathed, barely even aware of how close to begging it sounded. Not that they could’ve cared in that moment. All they cared about was Denna, and continuing to feel everything they felt for her.

It was definitely strange to reverse their roles like this. Heath was obviously a controlling person, one could see it by the pristine state of their apartment, by how they had so much domain over their life that they were managing a medical residence and owning a nightclub at the same time. All around town, Heath Arlington had always been an example for excellency, almost as much as Zac represented what one wasn’t supposed to do. If only people could see them as she was seeing them now, completely bending over backwards to fulfil every single one of her desires, at her mercy, begging her for more. Denna was actually glad no one could, obviously, not only because she would be way too embarrassed to show anyone something like this, but also because she enjoyed this side of Heath and the fact that she was able to keep it all to herself. They seemed to be such a public figure in Mount Wells, someone people talked about - tweeted about even - constantly; that it was nice to know them in a way no one did. It was a small miracle that they had been able to keep their relationship a secret until now - though some people like Nina, Rhiannon, Pietro, and Lem knew about it already - and she wanted to enjoy this privacy, this lack of judgement for as long as they could have it. 

Denna couldn’t lie, this also helped with her own self confidence. She didn’t think she would be able to be like this with anyone else, to play the dominant part, to take the situation by the reins and command them to do whatever she liked. It was something new, something she had never thought she would do - when it came to sex or life. However, ever since the first time she had returned from seeing her dad in Spain, she had been trying to take control of her own life. It had worked so far, it had led her to meet Heath and fall in love with them - so why not apply that same passion and assertiveness when it came to sex? It was pretty much like being a journalist; trying to get the story she wanted, to pursue an investigation and demand information. She smiled to herself. Only she could start thinking about work during a moment like this. Their reactions to her change of tone only helped turning her on further, and that gave her security in what she was doing. 

Once again her mouth went to their neck, sucking in at the sensitive skin and tracing her tongue over the red mark she left there. “I’m going to give you exactly what you want, Doctor Arlington.”, she muttered against their throat, voice shaky as she felt their arousal brush against her one more time. “Only because you’ve been very very good to me today, and I happen to be a merciful goddess.” She let out a little breathless chuckle and her lips travelled down to their collarbone, and their chest. Once it was impossible to continue, she finally moved off their lap, getting to her knees and spreading their legs to settle between them. She continued to kiss their chest, their stomach, then tracing her tongue up their inner thigh. The teasing went on for a couple more seconds before she finally took their hardness with one of her hands. First, she licked it from base to top, only to put it entirely inside her mouth afterwards. A little slowly, she started moving. Was she doing all right? Was this going to ruin the whole dominant act she had been putting since this had started? She had no idea, but she pushed those thoughts away as she quickened her pace a bit, waiting for their reaction.

“Believe me, D, if that first one was any indication, I won’t even be able to describe how much I’ll be enjoying all the orgasms you give me, because holy shit. No orgasm I’ve had could hold a candle to that one,” they said with a little laugh, but it was the truth. It was a combination of so many things that had made it so brilliant, they knew. The fact that it was Denna, that they had this unexplainable connection, was the biggest part of it, but it also helped that they had been dreaming of it since before she had left for Italy, and also that they had just confessed their love for each other so recently. How could something that was just based on physical desire even properly compare to having that with someone you loved more than anyone else, someone who understood you, someone you could be wholly honest and yourself with? It couldn’t. And Heath honestly couldn’t even imagine just how brilliant the sex was going to be with her, when that happened. They had a strong feeling they were going to end up locking themselves up in their apartment for at least a day the first time they decided to go for it, just based on how intense everything else had been so far.

When they had turned off the water, they stepped out of the shower, immediately going back to Denna, letting her wrap the towel around both of them, keeping them close, warming and drying them, while being internally hot. Even hotter knowing what she was suggesting they do next. They would have been fine if she decided against it, now or later, but she seemed committed to the idea, her confidence as she promised that it was something she wanted to do because she wanted them, and not because she felt like she had to reciprocate after what they did allowed them to think about just how much they wanted it too. “If it’s what you want, then it’s what I want, too. I didn’t think this night could get any better, but here we are. A bj certainly won’t hurt when it comes to how much I love you,” they muttered, a little laugh in their voice, as her lips started a trail down their jaw, their hands on her hips.

Heath let out a small, involuntary noise as she sucked and bit the sensitive skin of their neck, the feeling and her words nearly enough to make them come right then and there. There was something about the way she called them doctor that was sexier than they every could’ve guessed, her attempt to turn them on even more working brilliantly. “Mm, Doctor Arlington has never sounded quite so sexy. Bedroom, definitely bedroom,” they said, voice a little husky, savoring the feeling of her lips and teeth against their skin. They lingered in the moment for a second before taking one of her hands, and starting out of the bathroom, towel still wrapped partially around both of their shoulders as they went. As soon as they were there, Heath turned back to her and kissed her again, this one a lot less lazy, deeper, open-mouthed, hungry in anticipation of what was to come, as they pulled her closer. When they pulled back from the kiss, they looked down at her, a little smirk on their lips. “I want you to be comfortable, tell me where you want me,” they said, one hand moving up to her cheek to caress gently, a contrast to the kiss they had just shared, but the little glint in their eye was clear.

Denna laughed, and she could feel herself blushing. It was borderline absurd that after everything they had done, this was the remark that was making her blush. “You’re adorable, and I love you so much.”, she said, standing on her toes to kiss them briefly, still smiling when her lips covered theirs. “I never thought loving someone like this so fast was possible, and to feel like this, to feel so confident when I’m with you, to feel safe.” The hand that was not helping them hold the towel went to their cheek, thumb softly caressing their cheekbone and moving down to their bottom lip. “You’re the first person I’ve ever truly wanted to be with. In all my life. Not because you are waiting for me to, or because I should do it, or because that’s what expected of me; but because I genuinely want you. I just- I’ve never felt like this before.” She chuckled briefly, and then wrapped her arms around them for a moment, resting her head on their chest. It was an innocent gesture, especially compared to everything that they had just shared; but it was a meaningful one. It was her way to thank them, for everything they were offering her. She knew it wasn’t easy, that there were a lot of challenges, that they had to keep their relationship a secret for now; but they had trusted her from the very first moment, they had told her their biggest secret instead of just denying it - and she wanted them to know that she trusted them back, that she loved them as much as she said she did. 

“Good.”, she concluded, lips still on their neck as they both agreed. “Because if you’re going to make my legs weak enough so I’m not able to leave, I think I deserve some kind of payback.” As they left the bathroom Denna thought it was strange to feel so free, so confident in her body that she didn’t mind walking around completely naked next to them. She wondered if that was how everyone felt, people who weren’t afraid of other judging them or not finding them enough. In the past she would have never done something like that; but what she had said to Heath moments ago was true; she was safe here, with them. Fortunately the dogs seemed to be sleeping on the couch still, because she would have been embarrassed to do what she was about to do if they were in the bedroom. Their lips on hers only made her more convinced of what was about to happen, and she responded to the kiss in kind. However, their next words took her a bit off guard.

Every time they had been together like this, Heath had been the one to take the lead. It was only logical, they were more experienced and they knew pretty much every step of the way. Now, however, they were asking her to do it. She was the one in charge, and she could either hesitate, or play the part. Denna knew there was no time to back down, not because Heath would have minded, but because she didn’t want to. She blinked a couple of times and slowly took the towel, and threw it on the floor, leaving them both bare in front of each other. “Bed.”, she said, quite proud of how assertive her voice suddenly sounded. “I want you sitting on your bed.” Without really waiting for them to do it, she took a couple of steps forward, guiding them, until they both hit the mattress. Her lips moved to their neck again, but this time her tongue and teeth weren’t as gentle as before. As her mouth worked on their throat, she settled on their lap, straddling them, her own wetness brushing their arousal slightly. “Heath-”, she muttered, voice shaky because of the friction she was creating between them. “tell me how much you want this.”

In all of their life, they couldn’t think of a moment that had been quite as satisfying as that, as feeling her come against their face, and knowing that it was a feeling that only they could really give her, something about their connection making it all feel a thousand times more meaningful and intense than it could with anyone else. And Heath didn’t want anyone else. How could someone compare when they loved Denna as much as they did, and she loved them, their bodies somehow just as perfect for each other as their souls? The moment of silent peace that they both shared was just another reminder of that connection, feeling so close to her as they leaned against her thigh that they barely had the words to describe it. And her voice, that purr of bliss, a little ragged, a little lazy, they felt exactly the same. “You’re still amazing. And I thoroughly plan to keep outdoing myself with every orgasm I give you. So I hope you’re ready,” Heath said with a little laugh.

They took her hand and stood back up, immediately greeted with a kiss, slow and a little messy, just how it should have been in that post-orgasm happy haze. And they responded in kind, tasting her, letting the taste of her tongue mingle with the rest of it, somehow becoming even more delicious knowing what had just been done. It was no surprise that they both started deepening the kiss after only a few seconds, but it was a surprise to them when her hand slipped between their legs, fingers wrapping around their already growing hardness again, starting the movements she already seemed to have perfected again. Heath couldn’t help but let out a little moan that caught between their lips at the feeling. Never before had they become so completely and utterly turned on again after an orgasm, but they couldn’t be completely surprised considering it seemed like Denna was going to be able to pull just about anything out of them, and gladly. It was no surprise that she continued to surprise them, every single thing that she had done, had managed to get them to feel so easily, organically being so unlike what they had felt before. 

When she spoke again, she only proved further just how full of surprises she was. They pulled back from the kiss, so that they could look at her properly, trying to gauge her own thoughts on the suggestion. Of course, what she was offering, to get down on her knees for them was something that they wanted more than anything. Just the thought alone was enough to make their arousal twitch with pleasure. But they didn’t want her to feel like she had to do it just because they had done the same for her. They wanted it all to be on her terms and her own speed without the pressure. In their head, Heath was well aware that Denna wouldn’t have been suggesting something like that if she didn’t want to do it, especially knowing her own complicated feelings when it came to sex, but they had to make sure she knew that there was no obligation, now or ever. So they reached back to turn the water off, partially because she was right, they had been in the shower for way too long already, but mostly so they could talk properly, and looked back at her, one of their hands going to her face, brushing her wet hair back off of her forehead. “You know you don’t have to unless you absolutely want to; I promise I wasn’t expecting you to do any of that. I’m just glad I finally got to taste you,” they said seriously, but with a little smile playing on their lips. “The thought of you on your knees for me, it…fuck, it’s a good thought, but I only want you to do it if you want to do it. I’ll keep loving you even if you don’t give me a blowjob,” they teased lightly, leaning forward to kiss her again despite themself, the urge to keep touching her too great to ignore.

“I am definitely not ready”, Denna replied, a little hazy still. “- but I will be enjoying every single orgasm you choose to give me thoroughly, and I hope you do the same with the ones I give you.” Not that she had the same experience as them in giving orgasms, but she could feel herself learning already and even though her self-esteem wasn’t the best, she was certain that by the end of it all, she was going to be a specialist on what turned Heath on. That was also part of their connection, how frank they could be towards each other, how they weren’t afraid of saying what they like or didn’t like; and most of all, how they were able to laugh about it. Her mother had told her once that one of the most important things when it came to a relationship was laughter. Heath gave her plenty of that. They were witty, sarcastic, silly when they wanted to, and they had the habit of quoting movies and books like her. It was about much more than sex and desire; it was just what she needed. Perhaps that was the reason she felt so safe, enough to want to take this next step. It wasn’t sex yet, though she was sure that was coming soon, but it was a little closer to that. 

She had done it once before, to her ex boyfriend. The guy had practically begged for months and she had finally gave into the pressure. It had been awful, as expected, so terrible that he hadn’t gotten to come and she had remained absolutely frustrated and disappointed in herself for days, despite him telling her it wasn’t a big deal. After that episode she had never thought she was going to feel secure enough to even want to do something like that again. Heath, however, had helped her feel safe about many things she had never thought she was going to do again - sexy and otherwise. Denna had never imagined she was going to be able to open her heart like this once more either, let alone to the person she was actually investigating. It was almost unbelievable that what had started as a risky game had ended up in a love story fitting for a romance novel.

As they moved to turn the water off, she stepped out of the shower and grabbed one of the towels. She knew what was coming, and even though she was always grateful for the way Heath worried about her and made sure she was convinced of every step they took; this time she wished they would go with it. She was nervous enough about making the move, and she was scared that seeing them doubtful was going to make her backpedal. With a little smile she wrapped both their bodies with the towel and looked up at them, leaning into their touch. “I know you weren’t expecting it, and I know I don’t have to; but I want to. What you did was - wow, but this isn’t some sort of repayment for it. It’s because I want you, so bad; and I’m not ready to do anything else just yet, but I know I’m ready to do this.” Denna had no idea where to start, or if this was going to turn out to be a disaster like the last time; but she didn’t care that much, she really wanted to try. As she kissed them back, her teeth caught their bottom lip, pulling from it before her lips began trailing a path down their jaw and their neck. “I’m glad you believe it’s a good thought.”, she muttered against their skin. “And maybe after a blow job you will love me even more.” She chuckled, and immediately sucked and nibbled at their sensitive skin afterwards. “Now, Doctor Arlington. Do you want to do this here or shall we take this to your bedroom?”

The combination of her taste and the sounds she was making, telling them that everything they were doing was exactly what she wanted to feel, was turning them on even more than they thought possible. It had only been minutes since they had come, and yet they could already feel their arousal growing again. Maybe it was the fact that they had been dying for that sweet release with Denna for what felt like much longer than just a few weeks, but everything she did, every noise she made seemed to go straight to them, sending shivers of pleasure down their spine. They were well aware just how loud she was, how their neighbors were probably getting an ear-full right now even despite the running water, but they couldn’t have cared less in that moment. All they cared about was coaxing Denna closer and closer to the edge, tasting all of her, tongue exploring every inch of her. After all, maybe they would like the change from cello music at four in the morning; at least this time it was still earlier in the night.

It was hard for them to believe that this was only the first time they had done something like this with each other, that this was the first time that Denna was getting eaten out at all, when it felt like it was something that their body had been meant to do with her since the beginning, now that they were finally there on their knees in front of her, face buried between her legs. They couldn’t fathom this feeling any better with anyone else, and it didn’t come as a surprise, all things considered. The strange and deep connection they shared seemed to go beyond the emotional, to the physical as well, to the point where it felt as if their body had been longing for hers, and that now it would never be satisfied with anyone else, which they thought was completely true. It wasn’t even sex and it was by far the hottest thing they had ever experienced before in their life. And it was only the beginning, not just of things between them, but of the night. They were already thinking about cuddling up together in bed after all of this, pressed close together, maybe giving her one more orgasm before they went to sleep for good measure. Then waking up in the morning and doing much of the same. If it was there choice, they would spend the next twenty-four hours doing nothing but this.

As their tongue moved in and out of her, they felt her grip on their hair tighten, their name falling from her lips in what had to be the most attractive sound they had ever experienced before. One of their hands fell from her hips to move to their own growing hardness, stroking in time with their own movements despite themself, as her hips jerked forward against their face and she urged them not to stop. Heath couldn’t have even dreamed of stopping if they had wanted to, in all honesty, and so they moved faster as they felt her nearing her orgasm, pressing into her harder, drinking up her wetness. It only took a few more seconds before she was contracting against them, pushing forward, her moans absolutely obscene. They let her ride out the waves of her orgasm as they kept moving their tongue, slowing only slightly to match the pace, their own hand following suit. When it finally seemed she had had her pleasure, they pulled back slightly, just enough to press a wet kiss to her inner thigh, still leaning against her, taking it all in. “You’re fucking amazing, D, you know that?” they breathed against her thigh, the grin clear in their voice.

Denna couldn’t remember something feeling as intense and good as this, in all her years. She recalled Nina telling her about her own affairs, about how she chose to date a married man just because he was way better at this than any of the people she had had before, and Denna thinking it was a waste of time, that her friend was setting herself up for unnecessary pain. She still believed that, but now she could definitely say she understood better where the other girl was coming from. This feeling, this intensity, it was addictive. It was something she didn’t want to give up now, and that she wasn’t sure she could ever get enough of. It was all because of Heath. She was certain that she wouldn’t have been able to feel this with anyone else but them, and she wouldn’t be in the future either. They knew exactly where to kiss, where to touch, as if their bodies had been perfectly sculpted for each other. Maybe it was that the reason it was so easy for them to drive her over the edge, to make her completely and utterly crazy about them. 

Once again, the thought of going all the way crossed her mind. She wanted them, that much was clear, and if they asked she knew she would have a hard time saying no. However, Denna knew very well Heath wasn’t going to. They weren’t like any other person she had been with; they were respectful, willing to wait, and that only made her desire grow even more. Perhaps she wasn’t ready to go all the way, but she was to give them a little something like they had given her. It was difficult to keep her balance once they softly kissed her inner thigh, the shockwaves of her mindblowing orgasm starting to subside. She stayed in silence for a moment after they talked, eyes closed, smiling, savouring every second of this moment; maybe trying to convince herself that what she was about to do wasn’t completely crazy, or extremely bold. Normally Denna would never do something like this, but things weren’t normal right now, they were perfect, and blissful, and she wanted it. 

“Are you joking?”, she finally asked, voice lazy, a purr almost. “You’ve just given me the best orgasm of my life and I’m the one who’s amazing?” Denna chuckled softly. “Not that I’ve had that many orgasms in my life so you’re mostly competing with yourself.” After that, she tried to take their hand, motioning for them to stand up. Slowly and sloppily, because it was the only way she could actually move right now, she kissed them once more. She could taste herself in their mouth, and under different circumstances she would have thought that to be strange - now it just turned her on even further. As the kiss became more heated, her hand moved between their legs again, repeating what she had been doing only moments before. Denna had always been a fast learner, and she was pleased to find out this was also the case. She hadn’t forgotten what kind of movements they enjoyed. “We should get out of the shower.”, she said against their lips - and then waited a second to add. “And after we do, I want to return the favour. I want to get on my knees for you.”

Heath could’ve told her that he was more than willing to kept McCree there too, that he already seemed so comfortable in their apartment with Pluto that he might as well live there too, they could’ve told her that they would figure out a lie to tell her mom, if they really wanted to make it happen, or better yet, they could be honest, and tell her that they were in love and that they wanted to be together. But that was all a little too honest, a lot less teasing than the whole keeping her here with orgasms joke. As much as he wanted to, in that moment, impulsively ask her right then if she wanted to move in with them, they stopped themself. Things were still too complicated to be thinking that far ahead. They might’ve been moving fast on most other fronts, but that part was something they weren’t going to be able to cross until they had finally started being honest with anyone else. There was only so much lying they could manage, and it was already enough of a struggle just with her spending so much time at their apartment, they couldn’t imagine what it would be like to try to keep them living together a secret. That didn’t stop them from wanting it, though.

For now, they would be glad to have her over as much as possible, as much as she wanted. There was time, after all. They were still learning each other, and figuring out exactly how all of this was working, and at the moment, they had much more important things to worry about, namely coaxing Denna towards another orgasm. Even before they had moved down to her entrance, they could already tell that she was more than enjoying the sensations they were giving her. They had promised they were going to expand her world, and that was a promise they were planning to follow through on. So they let the more serious thoughts float away for the time being and focused on her, on giving her everything that they could. If they had to say, part of the reason they were so skilled when it came to this was because they genuinely enjoyed doing it. There was something that felt even more intimate than sex, in a way, and being able to give someone that intense pleasure, so selflessly, was satisfying in a way not even their own orgasms were when left alone. And it was all even more intense with Denna, of course. They had a feeling if she had asked they would’ve stayed there between her legs, lapping up her wetness for as long as she could imagine.

Her hips pressed forward against their lips, and they were already glad that she seemed to be enjoying this all just as much as they were, and they hadn’t even gotten to their favorite part yet. They wished that they could’ve watched her reactions more closely, seen the way her body was moving, the look on her face as they tasted her, but hearing her moans and words of confirmation was more than enough for them. The sounds coming from her lips were nearly as beautiful as her taste. The feeling of her hand tangling in their hair, giving them permission to do more, made them let out a low moan agains her wetness, the sound muffled between her legs. That was all the permission they needed, along with the promise of her coming again already, the baby only urging them onward, to finally press forward, their tongue finally pushing inside of her as their lips kept moving. If they had thought tasting her before had been a lot, the feeling of her warmth around their tongue, her wetness running over their mouth, face buried between her legs was even more heavenly. At that moment, the only thing they wanted to accomplish in life was to make her come again, it felt like the most important thing in the world, and all of those feelings were put into the movements of their tongue as they started moving their tongue in and out of her, trying to bring her over the edge.

All thought of living together, the reaction people would have if they took that step, and everything else that would happen disappeared as their tongue moved against her. It wasn’t like Denna hadn’t thought about it, or didn’t think it was important, but in that moment all she could think of was Heath, on their knees in front of her, tasting her and blowing her mind exactly like they had said they would. There were no words to describe the way she was feeling, and even if there were, she most likely wouldn’t have been able to be rational enough to say them. Her body was shaking, her eyes closed shut, and the sounds escaping her mouth were so loud she barely recognised her own voice. It was a scandalous image. In a flash of clarity she remembered Heath telling her about how their neighbours often complained about the sound of them playing cello. She wondered if they were able to hear all of this. Maybe tomorrow they would wake up together to an army of angry people that had been completely unable to sleep because she couldn’t control her moans. It was a very real possibility if they kept this up. 

The water ran warm still down both their bodies, and Denna wondered if it was also raining outside like it had before. It was probably getting dark already as well, and she was going to have to come up with an excuse to tell her mom when she asked why on Earth she wasn’t coming home the night before coming from Spain. Returning wasn’t an option now, not when Heath was set on making her legs weak and she loved it so much; not when her mind was filled with thoughts of sleeping together, cuddled up next to the dogs, and waking up that way - perhaps repeating what had just happened in the morning before getting up and having some breakfast. It wasn’t something she did very often, plan ahead like that when it came to romance and sex - but everything was different when Heath was involved. She already knew things with them were going to be like she had never experienced before. 

What was happening now was just an example. As soon as she said those words she could feel their moan between her legs, vibrating, sending another shockwave of pleasure through her body. Even though she couldn’t really see what they were doing, she was aware of every single movement, every shift of their mouth, and it drove her wilder by the second. Admittedly it was a little embarrassing how quickly she was ready for her release again, but she couldn’t help it. This was the first time she was doing something like this, and the whole new multitude of sensations were almost too overwhelming to resist. When they finally pushed their tongue inside her, she felt like she could faint right there and then. Her fingers tangled in their hair tightened their grip as she moaned their name, loudly, and shamelessly. “Please, Heath, don’t stop.” She pretty much breathed out as her hips jerked forward once more. It didn’t take long for their tongue to reach a soft spot inside her, and after that it was a matter of seconds before she was going over the edge, her legs shaking and her moans loud and incomprehensible.

No matter how far they went, and how many times they did anything like this, Heath thought that they were always going to be surprised by just how in sync they both were with each other. It felt like they already were beginning to know her body as well as their own, that they could tell what she was feeling even without words shared between them. Maybe it had to do with how comfortable they both already were with each other, or maybe it had to do with that strange connection they had both agreed they shared, but had no real was to describe other than fantastical words about soulmates and fate. Whatever it was, though, they were glad for it, and they were glad for her. All they wanted was to share everything they felt with her, and to make certain that she was able to feel the same with them, and so far they had both been doing just that. To be able to share so much with someone, to be so honest and real and bare with someone wasn’t something they had experienced before, but they were infinitely grateful that they were able to have that now with her, and that this was only the beginning of them sharing such physical expressions of all of that.

“I can’t wait, either. But first, I need to know what you think of what I’m going to do next. But is it really kidnapping if you want to stay? Because you’re going to want to stay after this,” Heath laughed, even as they kept moving, a lot more focused on her body than the intricacies of what was kidnapping versus what wasn’t. In all honesty, they would’ve gladly had her around always if she wanted. It was an interesting realization, but one that wasn’t too terribly shocking considering they had both confessed their love to each other only a little while ago in the parking lot. Heath was already thinking about her living with them. It wasn’t such a stretch, really. Even before she had taken the trip to see her dad, she had been spending more time at their apartment than not. But that felt like such a big thing to ask of someone, especially when they were still in the process of making their relationship official. It wasn’t a thing to think about just now, though, as they had much more pressing issues on their mind, namely how to make Denna explode with pleasure, using their mouth alone. They had said that they were going to blow her mind and expand her world, and they thoroughly planned on doing just that for her now. This was her first experience with something like this, after all, and they were determined to make it the best that they could; and they knew very well just how good they were when it came to this. Already, they were starting to feel turned on again, even as they kneeled in front of her and got ready to open her eyes to a whole new world of sensation.

Very gently, they moved downward, finally pressing a kiss to the sweet spot above her opening. They couldn’t help but let out a little moan against her as they finally felt her against their lips, and without hesitating any longer, they moved to her opening, tongue beginning to tease without pushing in, gladly tasting all of her wetness, hands tightening on her hips as they could feel their own arousal growing again already. She somehow tasted even better than they had been imagining––and they had been imagining doing just this for weeks. Like the nectar of the gods, really, and they weren’t just exaggerating because they were so utterly and wholly enraptured by her and her taste. They were fairly certain that they could do this for hours and it still wouldn’t be long enough to be tasting her. For now, this was fantastic, though, and they hoped that they were already giving her something that she had never experienced before, even though they were only just beginning. They pulled back only for a second so that they could look up and see her reaction to the sensation. “You taste so fucking good, babe,” they breathed, unable to keep themself from grinning like an idiot. They pressed a quick kiss against her inner thigh, before going back to work, tongue slowing teasing around her wet entrance, lips moving along with it.

“Uhm- I’m not entirely sure about that. What am I going to tell my mum? And if I stay here we also need a place for McCree because I’m not leaving him al-” Her words had started jokingly but now they were suddenly cut off by a loud moan when she felt their lips above her entrance. She knew this was most likely going to blow her mind. Heath had proven time and time again that they were really talented when it came to turning her on, and according to what they had told her, this was their speciality. Well they also seemed to be right about that because they hadn’t even started and she was already at their mercy. Did she want to stay there? Her first reply would be yes if they asked; but she couldn’t deny the complications of the situation they were in. They were in love with each other, and there was no doubt they were going to start officially dating after Valentine’s Day - or at least that was what Heath had implied; but still barely anyone knew about them. Most of the people who did know - except for Nina, Logan, and Amadeus that she was aware of - had reacted poorly too. There was also the Zac situation. Denna still wasn’t sure how their friend was going to react to the news, but she was convinced whatever it was, it wasn’t going to be positive. 

Thinking about living together with all that mess surrounding them was a little bit ridiculous, and a whole lot insane. And yet here she was, imagining what it would be like to wake up next to them every morning; to be able to kiss them before going to school, to wait for them at night while she wrote her pile of assignments and they came back from their rounds at the hospital; to have both McCree and Pluto together, probably sleeping in bed next to them both. It was too soon though, and she knew that, even if her mind refused to think rationally right now. Not that she could blame it. Denna didn’t believe anyone could be thinking straight in this situation, not when Heath’s lips were teasing her like that and she could feel electric waves washing over her body every time their tongue moved in a slightly different way.

She felt her hips slightly moving forward, looking for more of what they were offering, almost desperately. Her back was arched, her lips parted, and her eyes closed. She couldn’t even feel the water splashing her face, running down her naked body; all she could sense was them, and every little thing they did between her legs. When they pulled back, she almost whined in protest. “That’s- oh my god Heath. That feels so good.” She bit down her bottom lip so hard that it was a surprise she hadn’t hurt it. She was about to say something else, when they went back taste her and all words were replaced by incoherent moans that became louder and louder as their lips and their tongue explored further. One of her hands went to their hair, fingers tangling between dark locks. She didn’t push forward, didn’t put any pressure, but it was an encouragement, some sort of permission and beg for them to move their mouth where she wanted it to be, where she needed it to be. “Baby, please, keep doing that. Fuck- I can’t believe you’re going to make me come again.”

If asked to think of a moment where they had felt more connected to someone else, more completely and utterly free and understood, they would have come up completely blank of anything besides right now. There were so many different levels to what they were feeling as they finally came, their orgasm overlapping with hers, making it all even more intense. It wasn’t something they had experienced before, and they were certain that even if the timing had ever lined up so perfectly with anyone else, it wouldn’t have been nearly as meaningful. The sensation was more than worth the wait, all of the meditating they had been doing to keep themself under control, and even better knowing that it was happening together with her, because of her. Their mind felt a lot like a pile of sludge with the only real thought being Denna, but they already knew that this was something they wanted to feel over and over again with her for as long as she would have them. That strange and otherworldly connection that they shared only seemed to make it all that much more intense, that much more unlike anything they would be able to experience with anyone else. And Heath didn’t want anyone else. Why would they, when they had her, when they loved her more than they could properly express?

They let themself stay in that spot for a long moment as Denna’s hand smoothed over their hair, something so sensual even about that movement. Their breath was still heavy, and their legs were just as weak as they were sure Denna’s felt at the moment, but even now, so soon after such an explosive feeling, they already wanted more. It felt a lot like being a teenager again, discovering their body, and what felt good. Then again, wasn’t that what they were doing right now? Denna was younger than them, less experienced, but even so they were both discovering what felt good with each other, what they liked best from each other. It didn’t matter who or what had come before, because they were here together now, and this was just the start. They were surprised to hear that it was her first handjob, a split second of worry in the middle of the otherwise mindless bliss, hoping that they hadn’t pushed her too far, that this hadn’t been too much for her too soon. But that thought quickly vanished as her giggle continued, easy to see just how blissfully free she felt too. “You’re already a pro. But maybe I’m biased,” they muttered, a laugh in their voice, too, as they leaned forward to press a kiss to her jaw.

The kiss that followed quickly grew more and more heated, their own desire already starting to build again, as they kissed her back with the same hunger she gave them. When she pulled back, they couldn’t keep the smirk off of their lips, even as they replied. “I love you, too… Maybe that’s my grand plan, though, D, did you think of that? Maybe the whole reason I’m trying to make your legs weak is so you have to stay here forever,” they hummed, between kisses, before slowly starting a trail down her neck. They lingered for a moment, their hands going to her hips, before starting to travel down, pausing to pay attention to the soft skin of her breasts, and then slowly getting down on their knees in front of her as the water rushed over their skin. The kisses followed across her stomach, hands still gripping her hips. “How do you like the view?” they teased gently, looking up at her with a raised eyebrow. They only paused for a second before very tentatively starting a line of kisses downward.

Growing up mostly without a father, especially during her teenage years where she had started discovering herself, had made her bond with her mother even stronger. This meant that both of them were usually extremely open with each other. Denna had never lied to her mum, never until these last couple of months, that was - when she had started going out more, trying perhaps to fit in with a new crew she wasn’t really meant to, started selling cheat sheets on the side, and now dating someone she wasn’t supposed to. However, before all this, her mother and herself used to have a policy of complete honesty. That included sex. Her mum had always told her that it wasn’t uncommon for people to pressure their partners when it came to sleeping together. That she was most likely going to find herself in that situation at some point, and that she needed to know how to handle it. It was, obviously, a sad reality; but one she needed to be ready for. Her mother had been right. More than once she had found herself being pressured, especially after finding out she was perhaps less prone to being sexual than other people. Even though she trusted Heath, and she had grown to love them so quickly, one of her main fears was that they were going to try and rush things. They were older after all, and more experienced, and it was only logical to want more in the heat of the moment. 

Nonetheless, it wasn’t happening. Every step of the way they had been looking after her, making sure she was absolutely sure about what they were doing, even telling her time and time again that she could back down any time she wanted. It was almost too good to be true, and she would have believed it to be a trap, to have some sort of catch, if she hadn’t been so madly in love with the person in front of her; so terribly sure that whatever they were saying to her was the complete truth - because she was doing the exact same with them. Their lips on her jaw made her close her eyes and hum in pleasure. “I believe you’re definitely biased, yes, but I’m not going to complain. And if I’m even remotely good at it, it’s because you’re teaching me H. Don’t sell yourself short.” Her lips curved into a little smirk. “I can’t wait for you to show me what else you like.” 

Their next words made her smile, but her soft laugh was cut off by a soft moan as their lips carved a trail down her neck. Once again, the heat sent an electric shiver down her body. “That’s called kidnapping darling, and I’m pretty sure it’s not legal.”, she said between short moans now. Though if she had to be completely honest, she could stay like that forever. As pathetic as it sounded, she could do whatever they said as long as they kept kissing her like that, moving down her body, their tongue exploring her breasts once more only to travel down her stomach as they went on their knees. Denna knew what was coming next and she could feel herself getting aroused once again before they had even started. “Oh my god- Heath.”, she pretty much purred as her hands covered theirs on her hips. If she had the ability to be rational right now, she would be nervous. It was the first time she was going to do this, and there were a lot of things in her mind that could go wrong. However, rationality had abandoned her a long time ago and the only thing she needed was for them to keep going.

They could tell that she was becoming more comfortable with touching them, that she was starting to feel bolder, and the effect was maddening. It was impossible to understand how she somehow seemed able to bring them more pleasure than they had ever experienced before just from this alone. But they thought they knew part of it. It was because it was her. Their love for her, their overwhelming desire for all of her, body, mind and soul, made everything that much more intense, in the most satisfying way possible. Nothing else could compare to this, given the connection that they shared that went beyond even physical intimacy. Everything they did together was magnified tenfold because of the emotions they shared for each other. 

They could tell from her own movements that she wanted the same thing as them; she wanted to bring them just as much pleasure as they wanted to bring her. Something else they had never really experienced before when it came to sex; usually it always seemed to be about getting off, a selfish act, really, especially since before Denna it had always been more of a form of stress relief than anything with deeper feelings behind it. Not that they were in nearly the same position as Zac or Pietro, or even Lem, but they had been closed off, not wanting to give themself like they did now with Denna. It made all of this even more intimate. Perhaps even better was the knowledge that this wasn’t the end. There was going to be even more to explore together even just now in the shower, and once they were both exhausted, they would stay with each other, they would cuddle up in their bed with their dogs and fall asleep in each others’ arms. Heath would be able to wake up in the morning and kiss her and tell her they loved her, and then maybe eat her for breakfast. That thought sent a rush of pleasure through their body that was only magnified because of everything happening now.

The sounds she made as their mouth teased her chest, hand still working between her legs, was already nearly enough to make them come when combined with the feeling of her hand working up and down their length, but as soon as her other hand reached up and tangled in their hair, a moan of both their name and baby in the same breath, they knew it was over. Their fingers only had time for another few movements before Denna was coming, her warmth contracting around their fingers as they kept moving to ride the waves out, fingers pulling their hair, hips pressing forward so that she pressed against their hardness even as she still held them. That feeling was more than enough to push them over the edge, exploding against her thigh, the pleasure wracking their body, more intense than any they had ever felt before. The sound that they let out as their own orgasm followed hers was loud and obscene, something that sounded a lot like her name, even as they buried their face in the crook of her neck, eyes screwed closed from the intense pleasure. They were certain they had never felt anything like it, no pleasure they had experienced before coming even close to what it was to finally be able to come with her, because  of her. 

After what felt like a small, pleasurable eternity, they finally managed to regain some of their composure. “God, and that was only a handjob,” Heath finally muttered, a little breathless laugh in their voice. They leaned down to kiss her, this time slow and sensual, just as intimately. When they pulled back slightly, they were smirking. “I hope you realize I’m not done with you yet.”

It didn’t take them long to come after she had. Denna could already anticipate it was going to happen, as her walls and her body still pulsated with pleasure around her fingers. What she couldn’t have predicted was the intensity of it, and how emotional it was going to feel. For a second she felt like she could cry of happiness. The sensation of both of them reaching their climax together was almost too much. The way they held her, how they buried their face in her neck, and the sound they made when it happened were both so arousing and mesmerising. She never thought, not in a million years, that she would be able to provoke such a reaction. She had never seen herself as a sensual person; and she was definitely not a sexual one. With Heath things were different, though. She experienced a desire that she hadn’t ever before, with anyone else; and something in the back of her mind told her that there wasn’t anyone else in the world she could feel this way about. 

Why? She had no idea. Time and time again she had thought about it, and they had even discussed it in the car ride. What was that strange connection that brought them together? Soulmates? Fate? Denna didn’t know; and right now while Heath still clang onto her body, water running down both of them as they recovered themselves from their orgasms, she didn’t really find it in herself to care. 

The hand that had been pulling their hair was now smoothing the damp strands as they breathed heavily, leaning onto her. The other one, that had stopped moving up and down their length one they had come, was now soothingly caressing their back. It was a funny sight probably, giving how much taller they were compared to her. Finally they pulled back slightly, and she realised that she was still trying to catch her breath, her body shivering occasionally due to the intense pleasure she had just experienced. Their words caused a giggle to fall from her mouth. “Not only a handjob, but my first one ever.” She let out another laugh. She just couldn’t control them now. Everything felt lighter, and it seemed like she was floating. It was pretty much how it had been in the car, but it was intensified now. Everything that had just happened was much more intense than before, and Denna knew this was just the beginning. There was so much more they had to explore about each other, and for the first time in her life she wanted it, she truly wanted more.

“I love you so much.”, she whispered before they closed the space between them and kissed her. It didn’t take long for her teeth to trap their bottom lip gently, and suddenly the kiss had turned deep, passionate, and sensual. It was ridiculous how quickly she was burning with desire for them again. She had just come, she was still trying to recover, and yet the need for them only grew as their mouths moved against each other with renewed hunger. When they pulled back, Denna could have sworn that little smirk on their lips was going to be the end of her. Their next words though were also a close contender. “You’re not?” Her voice turned seductive, or at least as seductive as she could be. “You’re not playing fair, Heathcliff, how am I supposed to leave this place if you’re trying so hard to make my legs weak?”

They could feel her smiling against their lips as they kept kissing, as her fingers kept exploring their body, touching them unlike anyone else had ever touched them before. It felt as if their eyes had suddenly been opened after having been blinded for so long without even realizing it. Like every touch that they had had before this was a candle in comparison to the sun that was Denna’s touch. They knew that part of it had to do with the inexplicable connection that they shared, the one that made them so certain already that they were in love with her, that they needed her with them, or else they weren’t going to feel like they could truly be themself. But it was also so much more. The emotional connection made physical, each touch a tangible expression of what they felt for each other. They had never had anything like it before. Yes, they had been attracted to other people, yes, they had wanted to sleep with other people before, but nothing had ever been anything like this. They had never loved anyone before, never felt as if the universe was guiding them to them with a magnetic and inevitable pull, and a terribly satisfying one at that. All they wanted was to be hers, and for her to be theirs, and here they were, getting just that.

There were parts of it that they didn’t want to think about yet, of course. What it meant that they were now together, that soon it would be very official, and it would be more and more difficult to keep it from everyone else. There was only so long that they could hide, and in all honestly Heath didn’t want to hide, no matter what the consequences were. But they were terrified nonetheless of what it would mean to tell everyone that this was what was happening between them. If Lem had been any indication, they didn’t even want to think of what Zac’s reaction would be. Luckily, though, they had no time to think of it now. Now they were more than content to stay in this private world where only they existed, just as they planned on staying in this little world at least until Valentine’s day, when they had the chance to show Denna just how much they loved her in a slightly different way––although they had a feeling this would follow the grand romantic gestures, knowing how they both were. For now, they were focused on the feeling of Denna’s body, the way her hips moved forward to meet their hand as their fingers kept working inside of her, the sounds of her whines as they sped up slightly.

It only added to everything that they were feeling as she followed their lead on their own arousal, moving a little faster, giving them a little more pressure. It was wild how intensely pleasurable something so simple felt. They could feel themself moving closer and closer to the edge, but they held back, wanting more time, wanting to keep feeling her, even as they kept moving their hand as well. They let out moans that could have only been considered obscene as her lips trailed down their neck, to their chest, licking the droplets of water off of their bare skin in the most tantalizing way. Before they managed much more, though, she spoke again, even as she pressed forward, their hardness brushing against her thigh, so close to her, and they had to let out a low curse, taking their hand off hers, so that they could move to her chest, even as they felt the tightness growing in the pit of their own stomach. How could they say no to a request like that, anyway? So their fingers sped up inside of her, in and out, caressing the softness inside of her, trying to coax just what she wanted out of her. It was their turn to trail their kisses downward, until their lips found one of her nipples, as their hand moved against her, lightly teasing with their tongue, teeth. “Come for me, Denna. Come for me, and I’ll come for you,” they said, against her skin, voice low and husky, a little ragged and completely obscene.

Heath had told her many times before, especially during her time in Spain, how much the sounds she made when she was turned on excited them. However, she couldn’t have possibly understood what they meant until now, as she was was listening to their moans every time her lips touched their skin, combined with the feeling of her hand moving up and down their length. It was exquisite. As a journalist, she considered herself a pretty good writer; but there were no words coming to her mind to describe the feeling she was having. Not that she had the time or the willpower to actually come up with words right now, when she was so close to come for the second time - and something told her this was not going to be the last. They shouldn’t be so in need of each other. They had been apart for a couple of days, yes, but they had spent the entire time talking to each other - sending pictures and texts to each other. Then of course the car situation had happened, so why on Earth did she craved them so much? It was as if she was never going to get enough of them. It wasn’t even about something sexual anymore. Of course she loved this, she adored the way they touched her, knowing exactly what to do, where her soft spots were; but she loved the intimacy even more. The fact that after all of this she was going to be able to cuddle up together, bodies pressed against each other, and close her eyes and feel safe. 

That was a feeling she also craved, especially after spending time with her father and his family; the safety that someone in her life didn’t want to abandon her, that someone loved her, and cared about her, and that not every person was just waiting for the right moment to leave. 

Denna didn’t know if it was her imagination, but she could sense Heath’s moving closer and closer to the edge with every movement of her hand - and so her fingers became bolder. Tentatively at first, then more confident, she sped up a little bit, hearing the sounds still coming from their lips, paying attention to what seemed to coax more pleasure out of them. She needed them to feel as good as she was. When she had asked them to come for her, that hadn’t been just words. It seemed to be working, because when her thigh brushed their hardness someone clicked on them and suddenly their hand was on her chest, playing with the sensitive areas there. That feeling was of course intensified by their fingers, that stubbornly moved in and out of her, hitting just the right place bringing her closer and closer to what she desired so much. 

In the end she wasn’t completely sure what did it. Maybe it was what they said, every word mixed with the sound of sharp breaths and moans, the promise of them actually coming together for the first time. Or perhaps it was their mouth, so expertly travelling down to her chest, their tongue teasing the soft skin of her nipple, making it hard, only for their teeth to continue the job. She let out a high pitched moan and the hand that wasn’t too occupied moving between their legs moved up to tangle in their hair. “Fuck, Heath, baby that feels so good.” Both her sounds and the way her body was reacting to them, moving forward, her inner thigh brushing against them, teasing as her own fingers moved up and down; were pretty much uncontrollable now. “Yes, just like that-”, was all she managed to say before she finally felt the sweet explosion of pleasure coming from the pit of her stomach, causing her body to shake slightly, and her toes to curl. As she came, her moans became somehow louder and her fingers tangled in their hair even harder, pulling from it as her back arched from the shockwaves of her orgasm.

Maybe they were getting a little eager, but it was so hard not to given how much they were feeling. It was amazing just how completely magnetic everything felt, as if they couldn’t possibly stop touching her, pressing closer, wet skin on wet skin. It wasn’t something that they ever could have guessed would happen, any of it. The I love yous, what had happened in the car on the way there, the strangely immediate connection they had shared from the start. And this felt a lot like exploring another aspect of it; more than just the emotional but the physical. They had a need for her unlike any need they had ever felt for anyone else, and they were certain that she felt the same, as if only this was true satisfaction. They had gotten a glimpse during their movie night, but this was so much more, their bare skin touching, sharing everything with each other, being honest and open both emotionally and physically. It was a lot but in the most beautiful way possible, and it was only encouraging them onward. They wanted to feel that pleasure with her, and in that moment they couldn’t have cared less what anyone else might’ve thought about the two of them together.

They had to let out a low moan as she uttered their name and baby in the same sentence, the very sound making them want to get down on their knees already and show her just how much they appreciated her, get her to call them baby over and over again as they tasted her. There was no need to rush any of it, though, especially with her assertion that she was so close to coming again already. It was impossible to stop now when she was saying things like that, just urging them onward. Their mind was so full of her it was difficult to think of anything else, but there was one thought in their mind; just how completely and utterly new this all was to them, despite how many times they had been with other people. Nothing had ever been anything like this. Never had they quite enjoyed anyone else on this level, never before had they felt so wholly connected and understood, able to understand, someone else, and they were certain that there was no one else in the world besides Denna that they could feel these things for. It just made it all even more intense in the best way possible, every single move and touch magnified by a thousand. They wanted her to feel everything, and they wanted to feel it all with her.

But they could tell there was something else going through her mind at that moment, as she pulled back a little, meeting their eyes, even as they kept their own fingers at work. They could feel see hesitation in her eyes, and for a split second they were worried that they had pushed her too far, that this was too much for now, when they had already experienced so many firsts in the past few hours. Their worries were calmed almost immediately, though as she went on, interrupted by a moan their fingers coaxed out of her, unable to stop feeling her. And her words were somehow almost hotter than feelings her against their harness for the first time. The combination of the feeling of her hand moving up and down their length, and the words she said were nearly enough to make them come right there on the spot. Luckily, all of their meditation and deep breathing was paying off, in that they were able to hold off the urge, instead only letting out a low moan in response, even as their fingers kept working inside of her. “Fuck, I want to come for you so badly, D, you already feel so good,” Heath breathed, aware somewhere in the back of their mind how ridiculous they sounded, but not caring in the slightest. They paused for a second, their own motions slowing a little, as their other hand went to hers, covering it, then slowing starting to guide her hand up and down them, moving her fingers how they liked it, adding more pressure. Even just that made their breathing quicken, the heat building in the pit of their stomach. “Like that, yeah,” they all but moaned, unable to stop themself from closing their eyes temporarily, overcome with the sensation of her hand on them.

With one hand, Denna clang on borderline desperately to them, arm around their neck first, then fingers exploring every bit of their body she could reach. She felt needy, and maybe that was because she was needy. It was an urge she had never felt before with anyone else, and she could only conclude it was due to how deep their emotional connection went. She had had a relationship in the past, and even though she had been in love with her boyfriend back then - the truth was that she had only had sex because it was the logical thing to do, the next step that couldn’t really be avoided. However, this was completely different. She wanted this, urgently. Her lips curved into a little smile between their kisses when she remembered that they were actually dating now. That detail had of course remained overshadowed by her sudden declaration of love at the parking lot, but she hadn’t forgotten about it. She didn’t want to mention it too much though, since she knew Heath was waiting for Valentine’s day and their surprise to make it official. 

The thought of it alone was slightly terrifying. Not just the fact that being formally dating meant they were going to have to go public eventually, but the surprise they had planned itself made her a little anxious. It was going to be mindblowing, Denna was sure of it; but what if she wasn’t up to the challenge? She knew Heath enough to know that they were keen on grand gestures - and she wasn’t good at those. Hell, when they had mentioned they were planning on actually buying the lighthouse she liked so much she had completely panicked. Her head spinning sent a shiver down her spine and she made a mental note of think of all that later. It wasn’t really important now, not when her bottom lip was suddenly trapped between their teeth and their fingers were working inside of her, making her feel so many delicious sensations. Her words seemed to only encourage them forward and their movements became even more intense for a moment, to the point where she had to stop kissing them for a moment just to moan. The sounds coming out from her mouth were unbelievable even to herself - the sort of breathy whines that could be qualified as utterly obscene, especially considering the way her hips jerked forward every time their fingers moved in and out of her. 

Just when she thought she was about to fall over the edge, Heath’s fingers slowed down, taking away her much needed release. She couldn’t even complain though, because they kept moving - keeping her just there, about to reach what she wanted what not really. Fortunately their other hand came to her rescue when she asked for help and guided her up and down them. Now their own moans were the ones that made her feel more confident about what she was doing, and she picked up the pace - adding a little more pressure just how they were showing her. “Your fingers- they feel so good inside me.”, her words were mixed with her moans, and she kissed them hungrily, her lips then making her way down their neck, then their collarbone and finally their chest - catching a drop of water with her tongue and licking upward. Her fingers never stopped moving, and she pressed up her body even closer to theirs, so now their arousal was also brushing her inner thigh, so close to her core that was still pulsing in pleasure because of what their hand was doing. “Heath- please, go faster.” Denna all but begged. “Make me come, please.”

The kiss felt even more intense than anything they had shared before somehow, the heat of their bodies pressing together, every inch of skin possible touching, the water running over their bodies only adding to it all. It was easy for them to realize in that moment that they had never wanted anyone else in the same way they wanted Denna. Their feelings had a lot to do with it, yes, but it went beyond that even, those emotions translating into they physical need, too. Now they were suddenly aware of how hard it had been to go even a days without being able to touch her, and now that she was here in their arms they didn’t want to ever let her go again. And yet, even just being able to feel their bare skin pressed against hers, to kiss her without abandon, was enough in that moment. They wanted more, yes, but they were so lucky to have even this, that they felt satisfied, as if they had been parched, and she was their first taste of water in days. This was only the start, and there was so much time for everything else. If this was any indication, every single step was going to be so mind-blowingly satisfying with Denna, that it was worth the wait. And even more worth it to make sure she was certain of everything they were deciding to do.

The way she looked at them, eyes full of so many different emotions, made a grin slide over their lips as they paused for a brief second from the almost desperate kisses. It was surreal to think where this had all started, that only a few weeks ago the thought of doing any of this with her would have been laughable, but they were so grateful that it had led here, that they were able to tell each other that they loved each other, that they could be so open and honest and vulnerable, and know that they would both find it so attractive. Her hands wandering over their body only encouraged them onward as they gently teased her, just as the soft moans she was letting out did so. Already they could feel how wet she was, the water running down her body only adding to it all, making her feel that more delicious as their fingers explored. Her his jerked forward, sending a shiver of their own pleasure through their body at the contact, as her nails dug into their back, urging them onward. There was a time and place for teasing, and they were much too impatient at the moment for that. So Heath easily slide not one but two fingers inside her, moving slowly but insistently, coaxing her pleasure from her. Her warmth surrounding their fingers made them let out a low moan, encouraged them to pressed closer to her again, covering her body with their own heat, lips pulled together again.

Still, they were surprised when her own hand landed on their inner thigh, tracing tantalizing patterns over their skin as they took a sharp breath in. This was new territory between them, and they were well aware how new this was for Denna, so they did their best to keep their breathing steady as the anticipation built, the sensation sending shivers through them. As she pulled back from the kiss, a questioning look on their face, they could’ve guess what was coming. They couldn’t have guessed, though, how much such a simple touch was going to effect them. Heath couldn’t help the gasp that escaped their lips as her fingers tentatively brushed against their hardness, eyes closing for a brief second. In all honesty, they were a little surprised that they didn’t come on the spot just from the feeling of her fingers, however soft, considering how long it felt they had been waiting for her to touch them, how much they had been thinking of it, and how turned on they had been since they picked her up at the airport. Their own fingers stilled in her for a second as they looked back at her, the desire likely clear on their face. With their other hand, they reached between them and covered her hand withe theirs, before gently guiding her slightly over their hardness, encouraging her. They had to let out another long breath, eyes fluttering closed again, as they felt her. “God, I’ve been dying for you to touch me,” they breathed.

Who could have imagined a month ago that she would be in this situation now? Not her, obviously, not even in her wildest dreams. Out of every possible outcome she had analysed when she decided to start investigating Heath, falling for them was most definitely not on the list - and yet here she was. Though what they were doing now was about more than the love they felt for each other, it was about their somehow incredibly deep connection and uncontrollable chemistry that she couldn’t quite explain. And she didn’t care to, at least not right now. It was as if her mind had gone blank and all her fears and insecurities had disappeared completely. Long gone were the words that Rhiannon and Willem had said to her before going to Spain, the disapproving looks and all the warnings. At this moment she couldn’t care less about all of it, and the only thing inside her brain was Heath, and the things they were doing to her, how their lips moved against hers making each kiss even more passionate and how their hand teased a soft spot between her legs. She had even almost forgotten about the water running down their bodies, even though it was there, ever present, its sound partially covering up her whimpers every time their fingertips pressed on the sensitive skin inside her. 

When their two fingers slid inside her, Denna’s loud moan got caught by their kiss, and her hips immediately moved forward once more, almost desperate for the contact. If her brain had been functioning properly, she would have been worried about how needy she was, but the only thing that seemed to matter right now were their touches, and how every time their hand moved the heat inside her increased, building up to the familiar sensation in the pit of her stomach. “Heath, baby-”, she whispered against their lips the moment they pulled back for a second and the most delicious sound escaped their mouth. “you’re going to make me come again”: In all honesty, it was probably a bit embarrassing how easy it was for them to make her feel that way. It had taken less than half an hour before they had made a mess of her in the car, and it was taking even less now. Apparently Heath hadn’t lied when they had told her they enjoyed pleasuring her more than anything else, which didn’t surprise her at all, given the fact that ever since they had started seeing each other, they had been completely honest. 

Still, Denna felt something she hadn’t really felt before with anyone else. She wanted to pleasure them, too. She was eager to touch them, to see what kind of effect she could have on them, to hear them moaning her name the same way she was doing with theirs now. Her lips curved into a little smile when their free hand guided her towards their hardness, but it didn’t last long before another moan interrupted it. Nonetheless, her touch was relentless and a little clumsily, she moved her hand up and down their length. She had done this only once before, and she felt awkward all of a sudden, unsure if she was doing it right - so once again she pulled back, blinking a couple times and trying to keep her voice steady for a moment, despite the shocks of pleasure their fingers were sending down her body. “Can you-”, a gasp cut off her words as they hit a soft spot. “Can you show me how you like it? I want to know. I want you to come for me too.”

They knew that this experience was utterly new to Denna, and for a brief second as they took her in, they hoped again that they were able to make everything she wanted as comfortable and as fantastic as possible. Because this wasn’t like anything they had done before either, no matter how many other people they had slept with, no matter how many showers they had shared with anyone else––which wasn’t a very high number, granted. This was different, they loved her. Already, they had shared things with her that they had never shared with anyone else. And this felt a lot like just confirming everything they had already said to each other physically. It was of course about the desire they had for each other, that need to feel and see each other so completely, to share everything, but it went beyond that. The smile that she gave them as she looked back at them just confirmed all of that. It also made them even more confident that they would be able to give her everything that she wanted. All they wanted to do was to take care of her, to show her how much they loved her, and this was just the beginning. This was them learning how to do just that with each other, and they couldn’t believe how incredibly lucky they were to be in such a position with her, even after so little time.

They would never get over the sounds that she managed to make, the glorious, uninhibited noised that came from her lips when they touched her, just as beautiful as her naked form, as they ran their fingers over her, exploring her body. Still, Heath was a little surprised when she reached out and started doing the same. They knew that this was probably nerve-wracking for her, to be doing any of this, but they could still see the want clear on her face, and her fingers were gentle but eager, exploring them just as they had explored her. They leaned into her touches, unable to keep the moan from leaving their lips as her hands came to a stop, almost pulling them closer. When she spoke, they knew she meant it just as much as they had. And it made them feel more than they could really describe. Luckily, they didn’t have to, as she closed the space between them, and brought her lips to theirs. The kiss turned more urgent quickly, open mouthed and full of desire, as they pressed their bodies against each other, desperate for more already. And the way she said their name, the words she said when she pulled back slightly. “Fuck, Denna, I want all of that,” they breathed against her lips, eyes fluttering closed at the implication of the words, as well as the feeling of their hardness pressing against her bare skin. They were fairly certain that it wouldn’t take much for them to be pushed over the edge, the very thought of her touching them, them showing her how, nearly enough to do it considering the feelings they were already being given. But they wanted to give her everything she asked for, and every single item on the laundry list was just as appealing as the last.

It was a lot like hearing those words propelled their body into action, one hand almost immediately moving over her stomach, downward slowly. They wanted to take their time with all of this, they truly did, but at the same time the need to touch her, to give her exactly what she was asking for, was too great not to start now. They wanted all of those things, too, so, so much. They wanted to feel all of her, to taste her sweetness, to feel somehow even closer than they had already managed to feel. And the desire for her to touch them was indescribable, really, especially after how utterly turned on they had been during the car ride back here. For a second they considered getting down on their knees in front of her already, gently spreading her legs and finally tasting her in the way they had been dying to for weeks, but they still knew that some build up would only make it all the more pleasurable for both of them. So instead, their hand snaked downward, gently teasing between her legs, this time not constrained by clothing or underwear. Heath couldn’t help the small moan that escaped their lips as their fingers gently started massaging, glancing down between them briefly to take in the full sight. “I don’t know how it’s possible, but you feel even more fantastic than you did in the car somehow,” they muttered, very aware that their own breathing was speeding up, their own arousal growing.

Her heart felt like it was about to explode because it was beating so fast. As she kissed them, perhaps more deeply than she had ever kissed them before, she realise how close they were. She could feel every inch of their body pressed against hers, even their hardness, that seemed to grow every time their lips touched again and again. Her mind wandered to the possibilities for a second. It would be so easy to just breathe, let go, and tell them she was ready, that she wanted to have sex with them. All she had to do was say the word and they could be inside her just like that. She wasn’t scared, she knew they were going to make her feel great, like they always did. Still, there was something in the back of her mind that wasn’t quite prepared to take that step yet. She didn’t know exactly what, but it had always been there. Was it fear? Maybe. Was it her own insecurities lurking from the darkness of her mind? More likely - but she didn’t want to think about that just yet. After all, she had talked to Heath about this multiple times and they had promised time and again and they were going to be patient, and they didn’t need to sleep with her just yet. They had been nothing but respectful, every step of the way, making sure that she was completely convinced of what they were both doing. That was much more than she had gotten from any other person she had been in a similar situation with before. 

The water was running freely and they were both completely soaked by now. Denna kissed them again, as if their lips were somehow magnetic to her. Her hands where everywhere. She wanted to explore their entire form, she wanted to memorise it, as if that action alone was what allowed her to really know them, to feel with her fingertips what no one else before her had felt. Under different circumstances she would be wondering what other people had been lucky enough to touch them this way, and if they had touched them better than she was right now, if their hands had been more skillful. Right now, however, that was nowhere near her mind. The passion of their movements and her desire had taken over her brain, and her self doubt had been long left behind. She pushed a strand of hair that was stuck to their forehead back, pulling back for a second to do it and looking up at them with divine reverence. Then their hand moved down her stomach and she inhaled sharply. 

Your fingers feel fantastic, too. She wanted to say. I feel fantastic. I want you to touch me so bad. I want to feel your fingers inside me. Any clever or arousing reply was enough; but she wasn’t able to do that. All that escaped her mouth when they started teasing between her legs was a soft moan, as she bit down her bottom lip and her hips jerked forward, begging for them to keep going. Her nails dug into the skin of their back, pleasantly taken off guard by the pleasure the rest of her body was feeling. Their movements didn’t stop, and her own heat started building - her own warm wetness mixing with the water running. It was her turn now to act. Her hands slowly descended down their torso and reached the inside of their thighs. She stayed there for a moment, feeling them, tracing invisible up and down patterns on their wet skin. Denna wasn’t really sure how to proceed, she didn’t fully know if they wanted her to touch them yet. Maybe they wanted to wait, maybe now was too soon. She pulled back slightly from their kiss once more and offered them a wondering look as her fingers brushed their hardness tentatively.

They had to think about just how unexpected all of this was. When she had taken them to the lighthouse that night, they had felt something inexplicable, but they never would have guessed that only a few weeks later this was where they would be together, having already told each other that they loved each other, now seeing each other naked for the first time, this magnetic spark between them that was unlike anything else they had felt with someone before. All of it so thoroughly unexpected, but so beautiful and welcome. They felt like home when they were with her, able to touch her. There was no need to act or be what everyone expected them to be; they didn’t have to lie and play pretend, they could just be themself. Maybe it was sad that that was such a new thing for them, that they could count on one hand the amount of people they felt like that around, and none of them quite in this way, but to them it just made what they felt for Denna even more meaningful and important. Being able to be honest with someone, to feel comfortable sharing what they felt, no need to hide anything they thought, it was freeing. And that’s what they felt as they took her in. The chance to give someone everything, good and bad, and to be accepted, to get the same in return, was something they hadn’t expected from Denna, but something they were infinitely glad to have.

Her reaction as their hand brushed over her chest was intoxicating, and in that moment they wanted nothing more than to draw that sound out of her again, to keep touching her, exploring her body, to see what other noises they could bring forth. They could see just how much that simple touch had affected her, and that in turn affected them, sending a wave of pleasure through their body. When they finally rid themself of the rest of their clothing, standing utterly exposed to her, her blush was clear, but so was the desire in her eyes, the way she parted her lips slightly making them want to do things with those lips. And the feeling of their pleasure pressing against her skin as they kissed her again, only served to speed their breathing up, already making them want more. There was plenty of time, though, and they hadn’t even made it into the shower yet. As she pulled back, they let out a low laugh, a little rough already from the desire fueling their every move. Now Heath didn’t waste anymore time stepping into the shower, letting the water run over them, wet their hair, giving her a chance to undress the rest of the way without them staring, because they knew they were going to stare, no matter how hard they tried not to.

Only a few seconds later, though, they felt her arms around their middle. “I love you, too, Denna,” they said, the grin clear in their voice as she wrapped her arms around them from behind, pressing against them. The feeling of their skin pressed close together was better than anything they could describe. Their hands automatically covered hers for a moment, keeping her there, savoring the feeling for a long moment. But the heat was only building in their stomach, and they couldn’t wait any longer to see her. So they turned around finally, so that they could take all of her in. The sight they were greeted with was somehow even more beautiful than they could have imagined, and they had to admit that they had imagined it many times before now already. Her pristine pale skin, the heat giving it a pink glow, every curve of her body somehow more perfect than they thought possible. And all they wanted to do was explore all of that, and let her explore all of them. This wasn’t just showing each other their bodies. It was more than that, and they were certain she felt the same way. This was laying themselves bare, body and soul, for each other to see. “You’re so beautiful, every inch of you,” they muttered, moving closer to her as the water ran over their body. They let their fingers trails from her collarbone, down her chest, over her waist, hips, the top of her thighs, savoring the feeling of her.

If Heath looked sort of like a model in normal clothes, and definitely like a Greek God when naked, seeing them in the shower, as the water ran down their hair and torso and continued its way towards other places had to be some kind of a vision. Denna just couldn’t keep her eyes off them wondering how on Earth she got to be so lucky. She could practically hear the gossip inside her head. How convenient was that she had made one of the richest people in town fallen for her and one of the most gorgeous ones too. It was more than that, though. In fact, it wasn’t like that at all. She couldn’t care less about their wealth, and even though they were indeed the epitome of handsome, she didn’t even truly care about their looks at that moment. She felt as if she was seeing through them, directly into their soul, and that was the most beautiful part of them - no matter what they thought. And the way they said her name, together with those four words she just couldn’t get tired of hearing. There was such tenderness in their voice, such sincerity, she couldn’t believe she had once doubted their feelings when they were able make them sound like that. She smiled, of course, a tender gesture that didn’t need any words. What would she say, anyway? That they loved them beyond words? That she couldn’t explain how deeply her feelings went? Perhaps some day, but now it wasn’t the time. 

Denna stepped into the shower once she let go of her embrace and let the water wash over her as well. It felt perfect, just as everything did right now. She could feel the way they were looking at her but contrary to what she had initially thought, their gaze didn’t intimidate her; she found that it actually fuelled her desire even more if that was possible. She wanted them to keep looking at her, she wanted them to touch her, she just wanted more. Her mind of course wandered off to the moment that had transpired in the car and she could feel her arousal becoming stronger. It was insane, they hadn’t even put their hands on her body and she was already melting. She took a step towards them, unsure of what to do now. The water was making her hair stick to her eyes so she just pushed it all back. She felt nervous, there was no denying that. She had never done something like this before. But she was excited as well. When she had told Heath she wanted to learn, that hadn’t been a lie. She wasn’t a virgin, but she was really inexperienced; and she wanted to be better at it, she wanted them to show her what they liked, how to pleasure them - and she was eager to discover all of it. 

Their words were unexpected, and so was their touch. This time she closed her eyes and the gasp that fell from her lips sounded more like a soft moan, covered by the sound of the water running. You really think so?, she wanted to say, but of course they did. How could they not when they were touching her with so much adoration and softness? This time she let her hands wander as well, both of them, travelling down their body. She started on their arms, then their torso, their chest, following the drops of water down to their hips and finally their backside. She felt strange touching them like that, so intimately, so eagerly - but the more her hands came in contact with their wet skin the more of them she wanted. “You’re beautiful too.”, she whispered in return, finally eliminating all space between their bodies and kissing them. Her movements started slow, but it wasn’t long before they became faster, urgent, as her heart started racing and the heat in the pit of her stomach grew every time she felt them pressing harder and harder against her. “Heath-”, she said softly, barely pulling back, “I want you to touch me, I want you to taste me like you said you would. And I want you to show me how to touch you. Please. I want you so much.”

Her little laugh, musical and mesmerizing, especially in a moment like this, was a good sign in their mind. They were half expecting her to change her mind now that things were getting a lot more real, even closer to being faced with everything, no barriers between them, but they were glad to see she seemed as comfortable as someone can be when stripping down like they both were now, only a little bit after admitting that they were in love with each other. Maybe that was why there was so much anticipation they were feeling, as they went onward, which was a funny thought, considering this wasn’t even going to end in sex. But this was different than anything else they had experienced, even just seeing each other naked felt like an enormous step, considering everything they had shared with each other already. And it felt more meaningful, too, with Denna that it had with anyone else. There it was again, that unexplainable, intense connection they shared that they had no logical way of explaining, but didn’t want to explain, considering how amazing it felt. 

They were very aware of the reaction all of this was causing, especially as they finally unzipped their pants, and stepped out of them, tossing them aside, now even more obvious considering their preference for boxer briefs. Luckily, Denna didn’t seem to be deterred. Quite the contrary, they could see the desire in her eyes as she looked back at them, taking all of them in, and they were certain the same look was reflected in their own eyes. When she stepped closer, their hand automatically went to her hips, just above her underwear, thoughts straying away, that familiar heat in their stomach certainly not caused by the hot water running nearby. Her hand trailing down their chest sent a pleasant chill through their body, that was counterbalanced by the way the room was steaming up so quickly now. When her fingers stopped just at the waistband of their underwear, the teasing clear in her eyes, they couldn’t help but take in a breath, already anticipating what it would be like for her to touch them like they had been dreaming of.

For a split second, Heath was disappointed when she pulled back, until they realized what she was doing, quickly unfastening her bra, and letting it fall to the floor to join her dress. They were staring, they knew they were staring, but they couldn’t bring themself to care, really, considering just how beautiful she was like this. Luckily, her words, teasing, but full of obvious desire, brought them out of their trance, made them laugh a little as she stepped closer. They hesitated for a second, before reaching up and brushing the back of hand lightly over the top of her chest, admiring. And then she was pressing closer to them, skin on skin feeling like something miraculous, the kiss she pressed to their lips just proving to them that there were divine things in this world. But there was a more pressing matter, and the whole point of this had been the shower after all. “I think that’s a great idea,” they muttered, pulling back a little. This time, they didn’t hesitate before completely ridding themself of their clothes, now put on display completely. Oddly enough, or maybe not oddly at all considering it was Denna, they wanted her to see them, to really know them at their most vulnerable, and this was certainly one of those moments in the best way possible. Heath couldn’t help but lean down to kiss her, before making any move toward the shower, putting all of their feelings into that kiss. “Hope you’re okay with me showering naked,” they teased, barely pulling back from the kiss.

There was a moment of silence when she tried to guess the best she could what was going through their mind. They were staring at her, a mesmerised expression painted on their features. That was a good sign, wasn’t it? If they had been disappointed, she was sure she would have realised. After all, Heath was very good at hiding things, but they had always been extremely transparent with her. She liked that, she loved being that only exception. It only showed how much they really loved her, no matter the doubts that clouded her mind from time to time. Denna had many friends, many people that cared for her and valued her. However, Heath was the first person who seemed like they were willing to put her first, to open up completely, to trust her blindly - both good and bad. Perhaps it was selfish to crave that connection so much. It was a feeling that consumed her, and it wasn’t going away any time soon. She had always put the needs of others on top of her own, but now she wanted this for herself, and she realised she didn’t really care what other people said, whether they disapproved or not. It was only fair that she responded in kind - giving them her full trust, loving them as much and they did. 

Denna wasn’t someone who did things in halves. Yes, she was doubtful sometimes, and she struggled with her own insecurities; but that didn’t mean she didn’t feel intensely. As much clichè as it might have sounded, once she gave her heart to someone, she gave it completely. Maybe that was the reason it was so easy to break. This wasn’t the time to think of that, though. There was a possibility that Heath would break her heart, obviously - she was realistic enough to realise not every relationship lasted forever, and she actually had a very vivid example at home. Nonetheless, part of deciding to trust someone was giving them a chance, and letting go, and that was exactly what she was doing now. The back of their hand brushed her exposed chest, and she couldn’t help but gasp loudly. It was a soft touch, almost nonexistent, and yet she felt like her whole skin had just set on fire. For a moment she was tempted to take that same hand and keep it there, encouraging them to explore every inch of her, but the shower was waiting, and they had the whole night to do that. 

They pulled away from their next kiss and she actually felt dizzy, intoxicated, and wanting even more. And then, they were naked. It was so fast she didn’t even register what was happening. Her cheeks flushed completely red, and her lips parted slightly. That was Heath, not the doctor resident, not the Arlington heir, not the owner of a secret nightclub; just Heath - and they were hers. They were seeing each other naked for the first time, and surely there were many more to come, but this somehow felt special - as if their bodies weren’t the only things uncovered, but their souls as well. Before she could say anything, they were pulling her in again, and she wasted no time and deepened the kiss. She could feel their arousal pressing against her, free, eager; and that only drove her more wild. It was her turn to pull back now. “I’m pretty sure that’s how you’re supposed to do it, actually.” She smiled, and as they walked towards the shower, she got rid of the rest of her underwear as well. And there she was, just like they had been moments ago, completely naked - body and soul. As they entered the shower, she followed and hugged them from behind, resting her head on their back for a moment. “I love you.”

Normally, all of this anticipation would have been driving them wild, making them want to do everything fast, shed clothes as quickly as possible so that they could feel her skin pressing against theirs, fulfilling that need in the pit of their stomach. But not now. They wanted to savor this moment. From the time they had first seen her again at the airport, things had been building up, and now was not the time to start rushing things. Even without the promise of sex, they had a feeling that whatever happened in the shower was going to be the most satisfying thing they had ever experienced, and they wanted to savor every second of it. Knowing how she felt about them, the confession they had shared, and the certainty they both agreed they felt about this inexplicable connection they had, just made everything a thousand times more intense, and it made them want to feel it all with her. They wondered now, how they had gotten by for so long without her, without being able to feel so much joy and happiness and peace and real desire. Because nothing else they had ever experienced before held a candle to the fire that they felt now in their stomach. Part of it had to be the love, that genuine feeling they shared so unexpectedly and so quickly, but there was something else there too, even deeper than that somehow. And it made every little touch even more meaningful.

They let her guide their hands to the sleeves of her dress, slowly sliding the dress off, trying and failing to keep their breathing steady as they were met with the sight of Denna in her underwear. This was a big moment, no matter what way they looked at it. Yes, they had already shared so much, they had sent each other pictures, they had fingered her in the car, but this was different than that. Even then, they hadn’t been laying themselves out for each other to see in this way, with the implication of the intimacy to come. This was both of them showing themselves to the other, vulnerable and bare and full of desire, full of love. Heath had seen so many other people naked before; every time they had hooked up with someone else, there had never even been a moment of pause before they both stripped down, no questions asked, no deep breaths. The way their heart was beating faster against their chest told them that this was infinitely different, if their own admission of love only moments earlier wasn’t already enough to guarantee that this was completely other than anything they had shared with someone before. This wasn’t just a means to an end, this was about the honesty they had already shared, about being comfortable enough with each other to give everything. It wasn’t about any sort of sexual desire, although they had that for her in spades, it was about something so much more intimate.

And as her dress hit the floor, they couldn’t help but let their eyes wander over her body, admiring already, even with so much still between them. Already, they felt like they were truly seeing her, and they wanted to give her the same. Before they had a chance to say anything, or to make a move to take anything else off, her hands were on either side of their face, and she was pulling them into a kiss. This kiss was immediately hungrier than any before, their tongue pushing forward to taste her, a moan already building up in the back of their throat as their hands moved down her sides, one hand moving to the small of her back, just above her underwear, to pull her closer to them. “Now I’m overdressed,” Heath said pulling back just barely, a little laugh in their voice. They kissed her again briefly, before they let go of her, all so that they could start to unbutton and unzip their jeans, maybe a little slower than they normally would have, to make certain, still, that this was what she wanted, giving her a chance to stop them if she changed her mind. But they felt confident she wouldn’t. This moment was about sharing themselves with each other, as much as they both wanted, and they could feel, by their strange and intense connection, that she wanted to see them just as much as they wanted to see her. 

She remember talking to Nina, Logan, Amadeus and many of her friends about this. They all said the same thing - once the clothes were off, everything was easier. However, she didn’t feel the same way right now. Nothing seemed easy, and at the same time if felt like the most natural thing in the world. She didn’t want the moment to go by fast, to just get it over with; she wanted to enjoy it, despite her fear, even though she was terribly afraid that she wouldn’t be enough, that her lack of experience was going to bore them; still she wanted to make the most of every second. Denna chuckled slightly at their comment, and let them unzip their pants. Perhaps the right - or the sexiest - thing would have been to help; but she didn’t feel that brave just yet. They had a lot of time to learn from each other, she would have future moments to experiment and try to be bolder - now she just stayed there, watching them with a smile as they got rid of their clothes. 

The vapor was starting to making both them and the walls sweat, and she marvelled for a second in the way the hot water clang onto their skin, giving them almost a glow. The trousers were out of the way soon enough, and she found herself unable to avoid looking at them, and the very obvious reaction this whole thing was provoking. Once again, she had thought the situation would have intimidated her, perhaps caused her to back down and leave. It was a surprise to realise that she didn’t feel like that at all, quite the contrary. The prospect of touching them, of pressing her skin against theirs, of pleasuring them the same way they had done with her excited her; more than she could have believed. The mere thought sent shivers down her spine, and she could feel the tickle in the pit of her stomach, a sensation that had become familiar whenever she shared this kind of moments with Heath. She took a step closer to them, leaving the discarded dress behind. One of her hands moved to their shoulder, travelling down their chest slowly, softly, as if she was exploring and memorising every bit of their naked form. Her fingers stopped right where their underwear began, but she kept them there for a moment longer, looking at them in the eye, teasing them, and also reassuring them silently that yes, this was definitely what she wanted. 

With a little smirk her hands now went to her back, as she quickly unclasped her bra. Inhaling deeply she let it fall to the floor like she had done with her dress. Her first instinct was, of course, covering herself. Nonetheless, she resisted the urge, and instead took a second step forward, her breasts almost brushing their torso. “Well, now we’re even. See? The exact same amount of clothes.” In spite of her joking tone, her voice was soft and unintentionally low. She wondered if Heath could sense how aroused she was as she spoke to them. There was no way they couldn’t, her attitude right now was obvious, way too transparent. Denna had never been the most talented at hiding her emotions, and it was something she needed to work on as a journalist - but with them it seemed that was going to be impossible, and she didn’t mind one little bit. Standing on her toes, and pressing her body against theirs a little closer while doing so, her lips kissed theirs briefly until she finally gave the shower and the running water a side glance. “Should we get in?”
