Ethan was breathless, his head spinning as he tried his best to come down from what was probably the best orgasm he had ever had in his entire life. His focus was on bringing Alex over the edge—continuing to fuck him through his own orgasm and through Alex’s own. He couldn’t help but groan as he felt the sticky hot spunk explode over his hand and chest, but it was truly the hottest thing. He probably looked like a mess, but he didn’t even care. When Ethan finally heard Alex speak, he couldn’t help but laugh, his free hand tracing circles against the small of his back. “Yeah? I think you killed me too. Whew. That... was something.” He grinned, pressing a soft kiss to Alex’s cheek. “Perfect welcome home gift.”

Ethan nodded his head when Alex said that he wanted him to come. He was glad to hear it, because he honestly wasn’t sure how much more he could take. He was practically panting as Alex continued to grind down against him, begging for Ethan to just let go. “Fuck, love when you beg for me.” As Ethan spoke, he decided he wanted to do more to help Alex’s pleasure—obviously riding him felt good, but the other’s cock was ignored. Ethan felt a little bad for being selfish. Giving his ass another gentle smack, he brought his hand back around, his fingers wrapping around his lover’s length as he begun to steadily jerk him off in time with his hips. “I’m gonna fill you,” Ethan murmured darkly, biting back a groan as he listened to Alex’s whine. “I’m gonna blow deep inside you, babe. You’ll be begging for more.” Ethan was trying his best to keep talking, but the pleasure building in his core, combined with the movements of his hand around Alex, was making it difficult for him to concentrate. He’d never been so turned on in his life. Warmth rapidly pooling in his stomach, Ethan did his best to brace himself. “Fuck. Fuck, I’m gonna nut. Alex—fuck!” Ethan practically screamed as he came, seeing stars as spilled into Alex. He continued to jerk Alex off in between frantic pants, his free hand falling to Alex’s hip as he pulled the other down against him, his hips thrusting hard up against Alex as he continued to fuck into him through his orgasm, desperate to see Alex through till the very end.

The thing about Alex that Ethan loved most was that he gave as good as he got. Ethan could say the dirtiest things and Alex always knew what to say in return. It drove Ethan up the wall. “Yeah? I love making you feel good, babe. It’s my favorite thing.” He couldn’t help but grin, his tatted hand giving Alex’s ass a quick swat. “I dunno, I think your tight ass is pretty good at taking my cock. It’s just out of practice. We have plenty of time to fix that.” He couldn’t help but bite down on his bottom lip as he watched in awe as Alex started to jerk himself off, doing his best to rock his hips slowly with each little motion. “Is that what you want? You want my load inside you?” Ethan asked, his cock twitching from the words pouring out Alex’s mouth. Fucking hell. It was beyond hot. He was definitely closer than he thought. When Alex leaned in for another kiss, Ethan pulled the other into a feral kiss, his grip on the other’s waist tightening as Alex began to ride him hard and fast. “Fuck yes,” Ethan moaned loudly, feeling the warmth begin to rapidly pool in his stomach. “Babe. Shit. I’m sorry, but I’m getting close.”

When Alex told him to lay back, Ethan gave a brief shrug of his shoulders before flashing his usual grin. “Sure thing, handsome.” Rolling off of top of Alex, he let himself sprawl out against their mattress. He was so fucking happy to be back in their bed. He was mind was running at a mile a minute, but he tried his best to focus as Alex straddled his hips. He let out a genuine moan as Alex guided his length back into his hole, his breath heavy as he felt Alex’s hands raking up his chest. You’re so fucking sexy. Ethan was practically panting, his hair askew from their lovemaking, but that familiar grin crawled back on his face. He could feel Alex’s fingers tracing down his treasure trail, every touch sending shivers to his core. “I fuckin’ love when you ride me,” Ethan murmured, his calloused hands tracing firmly over Alex’s hips. He gave the other’s hips a rough squeeze, pulling Alex down against him. “Especially raw like this. You feel amazing. Fuck. You ride my dick like a champ. Don’t you, baby? And you love it, yeah? You love riding my cock. Showing me who’s in charge.” Even in a time like this, Ethan couldn’t help but talk dirty. He loved it. “Fuck. Keep doin’ that. Just like that, Lex. God, you feel so fucking awesome. I already know you’re going to make me blow the biggest load.” Ethan could already feel a light tingling in his stomach, but he wasn’t even close to being done with Alex yet.

Ethan was completely focused on the task at hand, continuing to pound into Alex. The whole time he was egged on by delicious gasps pouring out of his mouth. Look at me. When Alex asked him to do so, Ethan nodded his head, breaking his gaze away from where their two bodies met to look into Alex’s eyes. He could feel the small bead of sweat starting to form on his forehead, but he didn’t care, a cheesy smile breaking onto his face when Alex said those three simple words. A long time ago, they had scared him. But now Ethan was just glad to hear them, and to know that Alex was as in love with him as he had been the day he’d left for his tour. “I love you too. I love you so fucking much, you don’t even know.” His tatted hand combed up his side, cupping Alex’s cheek, his thumb grazing against the skin. “I love being with you, I love that you’re mine. I love that I’m the only person who gets to be inside of you. I love that I’m the only person who can make you feel like this."

Ethan didn’t have time to react when Alex reached up to kiss him again, leaning down over Alex as returned the kiss with equal need, sliding his tongue into his mouth as he dared to deepen the kiss. He grunted lightly into the kiss as Alex tugged at his hair, loving when Alex got physical with him. He’d heard those two simple words, over and over—that was all Ethan needed to hear. His hands falling down to grip his hips, Ethan flexed his own hips, pulling almost completely from Alex before pressing back deeply into him. “God, you’re so fucking tight,” Ethan murmured, practically panting. He dared to repeat the action, his knees digging into the mattress as he started to fuck Alex, his thrust faster and harder than the one before it. “Fuck. Just like that. You like that, Alex?”

“As much time as you need.” Ethan murmured, tilting down to meet Alex’s lips when the other leaned in to kiss him. He kissed Alex softly and sweetly, and it helped distract him from the warmth that was rapidly pooling in his stomach. He was overly sensitive and he wasn’t sure if he’d have the stamina he usually had with his boyfriend, but fuck if he wasn’t going to try. As he stilled his hips to focus on the kiss he was sharing with Alex, he couldn’t help but moan softly as Alex squeezed his ass, his hips bucking as Alex pulled him in deeper into him. He groaned as he felt himself finally bottom out, rolling his hips slowly as he began to press into Alex slow and hard. “Fuck... you feel amazing, babe. I’ve missed this so much.”

Ethan nodded his head when Alex explained that sometimes things just happened. That was totally true. He bit his bottom lip as Alex continued to stroke him, but he could tell that the other was having a hard time focusing, which was okay—cause Ethan was having a hard time too. When Alex said he was ready to try, Ethan let out a sharp breath, happy to hear it. Wresting his fingers slowly from Alex, Ethan used his free hand to spread a generous amount of lube along his length. “Alright, ready?”Ethan slowly guided himself up to Alex’s entrance, pressing into him with a muffled grunt. “Fuck,” Ethan hissed, overwhelmed by the sensation—it was familiar, but it had been so long as it almost felt entirely new. Flexing his hips against Alex, he allowed him to press into Alex slowly, not wanting to overwhelm his partner. His hands trailed up his side before settling on his shoulders as he leaned over the other, taking in the sight of Alex like this. He’d missed this so much. “You good?” Ethan asked, pressing a soft kiss to his neck.

“No need to worry. You know I’d never hurt you.” Ethan whispered, doing his best to slow down his pace. Even if every single fiber in his body was screaming at him to go faster, he did want to try and take his time with this. He’d missed Alex so much, and he wanted nothing more than to just be with him. He couldn’t help but hiss a little as Alex continued to stroke him. He was overly sensitive and practically shivered with every single little touch. His eyes were focused on Alex. He loved that he could make the other feel like this, continuing to probe his fingers against the sensitive bundle of nerves inside of Alex. “I know what you mean. It feels so different, now I’m not used to doing this... but it feels fucking amazing. I love you.”

“Mm, true. I can’t imagine sharing you either, babe.” Ethan nodded when Alex told him to be careful. He supposed he was in a bit of a rush, but only because he wanted to be inside of Alex right now.They could take they’re time once they got into the motion of things. He did think it was cute that Alex had told him to be careful, but his mind was frazzled when he felt Alex’s hand grasping his dick, sending shivers up his spine. “Fuck,” Ethan breathed out, his free hand running up Alex’s bare chest. “No one’s touched me in months.” Ethan didn’t count his own hand, since that was a completely different feeling, and nothing felt as good as Alex’s hand.

“That the spot?” Ethan asked, hearing a familiar moan out of his boyfriend’s mouth. It practically made his dick twitch with how beautiful Alex sounded. He angled his fingers to probe at the sensitive spot. He wanted Alex badly at this point, but he was doing his best to slow down and prep his lover, knowing it’d been some time since they’d done this. As he continued to work his fingers deeper into Alex, Ethan leaned down to press lazy kisses along Alex’s neck. “You okay?”

alexandermertens:

“Well yess, unless you want to watch it with me. We could talk dirty about Mr Schuester and all the hot things I want him to teach to my body.” He might be talking about other guys but they both knew that only Ethan really mattered to him. They knew each others body and knew what turned the other on. No way he would give that up for a stupid one night stand with some hot guy. Ethan his wandering hands were making it difficult for him to focus on his job, which was teasing his boyfriend and making him hot and bothered. “I’m starving for your attention.” he replied huskily and when their eyes connected, he knew that Ethan was thinking the same dirty things as him.

They rolled over so Ethan was on top and he knew that now his boyfriend was in charge and it was going to get hot. He let the man tug off his shirt before he rested his hands on the other man’s shoulders. “I’m really interested in your shampoo though.” he quickly added before their lips touched in a heated kiss and he had no choice but to give in to his body’s needs. “I don’t think i’ve ever been this horny and we’ve barely did anything.” He told Ethan as they pulled away briefly from the kiss. “I want you naked.”

When Alex said he wanted him naked, Ethan didn’t waste any time, shifting slightly to peeling out of his boxer briefs. “So, you’re into Mr. Schue, huh? I’ve seen some pics of that guy in nothin’ but some tight ass briefs. He’s a grade A daddy. I definitely wouldn’t mind gettin’ a lesson or two from him. With you there too, obvs.” Ethan grinned as he looked back down at his boyfriend, who was starting to look alittle flustered himself. “We need to get you naked too.”

Ethan didn’t waste any time pulling off Alex’s briefs, letting out a heavy sigh as he pressed himself flush against the other. It’d been along time since he’d had skin on skin contact with Alex, and it was fucking intoxicating. “I’ve missed this. Fuck. I’ve missed it so much.” As he reached into the bedside table for exactly what they needed, Ethan put a little space between them as he applied a generous amount of lube to Alex’s entrance before coating his fingers as well. He bit at his bottom lip nervously before plunging his first digit into the tight heat of Alex’s hole, hissing at the contact as he pressed into Alex, searching for his prostate. “Fuck, fuck, fuck.” Ethan breathed out, trying to remain calm, but he knew it was going to drive him crazy when his dick was involved. He continued to work his finger into Alex, slowly adding in a second digit as he pressed against the taut muscle. “I just wanna feel you like this babe. Nothin’ in between us.”

“No, honestly you can leave more often so I can continue watching my my tv shows.” Alex teased him with a big smile on his face. He wouldn’t want Ethan out of his right now he had him back in his arms. “I totally ship Kurt and Blaine and Blaine is as cute as a button. I bet he has a huge cock.” Alex continued talking. He knew Ethan wanted to get down to business, which was exactly why he continued talking about the show. it was his way of teasing the man until he got impatient enough and would take matter in his own hands. “Hmmm you would want that don’t you? I can promise you we will be fucking like bunnies the next couple of days. Can you imagine that I forgot how it feels like to have you inside of me.? I feel like my balls have shrunk back into my body like little grapes turning into raisins.” He told Ethan and leaned in to kiss the man, but as soon as he felt Ethan get too into the kiss, he pulled away. “mm your hair feels so soft, are you using a different shampoo?”

“Oh, I see how it is. I get in the way of all your binge watching... is that was it is?” Ethan asked as his boyfriend teased him, daring to let his tatted hand dip down to his ass, giving it a playful squeeze as he listened to Alex talk about his show. It was actually kind of cute how into his show he was. “They’re cute.... cute as us?” He couldn’t help but chuckle. “And a big cock, too, huh? Geez, baby. You really are starved for attention, aren’t you?” He knew that Alex was just trying to get him revved up,and frankly—it was working

“Course I want that.” Ethan grinned when Alex mentioned they’d be fucking like bunnies. “Yeah? You’ve missed me, baby?” Ethan couldn’t help but feel flush when Alex spoke. It’d been so long since he’d been inside the other. “We should fix that.” He relished when their lips reconnected, but couldn’t help but whine when Alex pulled away, letting out a heavy sigh when Alex ran his fingers through his hair. “Maybe I am,” Ethan murmured, tugging Alex down against him before rolling them over so that he was on top of his boyfriend. “But c’mon, I know you’re not interested in my shampoo,” He murmured as he tugged Alex’s shirt off of him before reconnecting their lips in a heated kiss.

“I didn’t want to believe I was bisexual until I met you. Of all the guys I’ve been with, you’re the only one who is able to make me happy. I’ve never even felt this way with a girl. This is real and it’s so scary cause you have my heart and if you decide to walk away with it I’m fucked.” he said and couldn’t help but laugh at the last part. Being away from him only made him realize even more that what they had was special. It was the kind of love you would kill for. Never had he craved someone’s arms the way he craved Ethan’s.

With his boyfriend underneath him, Alex felt powerful. He knew that it wouldn’t take much to turn Ethan on, hell he was turned on himself. They hadn’t had sex in a couple of months and his body wanted to be touched. He leaned in and brought his mouth to his ear. “I’m wide awake.” he softly song the lyric of a Katy Perry song. He couldn’t help but chuckle as he pulled away. “Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me, infect me with your love and fill me with your poison.” he softly sang before he burst out in laughter. “I’m sorry, I’ve been watching a lot of glee. The first time I watched it, I thought it sucked but now I’m completely hooked.I just watched the episode with the spanish teacher played by Ricky Martin. That man is so hot, he can inject me with his love whenever he wants.”

“It makes me so fucking happy to know that I make you happy.” Ethan replied, a fat grin creeping onto his face when Alex started laughing. Not that what he had said was funny, but he couldn’t help but smile when he heard his boyfriend laugh. “No worries. I’ve got your heart... but you’ve got mine too, so I’m not going too far, okay?” He smiled softly as he looked up at his boyfriend. God, Alex was so fucking beautiful.He was in love with this boy and he was entirely his.

Ethan’s breathing became a little sharper with Alex on top of him. This was a familiar position: he could remember all the awesome times that he had Alex on top of him like this. But Jesus if Alex wasn’t making it hard to focus. They hadn’t been together like this in months, and Alex was close—but not close enough. “Yeah?” Ethan murmured, immediately rolling his eyes playfully as he heard Alex begin to sing Katy Perry into his ears. “Glee? God damn babe, I’m so sorry I ever left.” He ran his hands lovingly along Alex’s sides before settling on his hips, his brows quirking as he listened to him speak. “Ricky Martin is pretty hot, but y’know... I’m here and I’d totally be down to inject you with my love too.” Ethan knew it was a corny joke, but he didn’t care.

Their lips didn’t leave each other until they both felt satisfied enough to part. This was everything he had been wanting for the last couple of weeks. He just wanted to be in his boyfriends arms and kiss him. Alex his eyes locked with Ethan’s as he talked to him. He could see that he was nervous to say those words. He knew it wasn’t easy for Ethan to to express his feelings out loud. He was more a man of action not words. Alex appreciated every word that left his mouth at that moment because he knew they were true. This was exactly how he felt. “I love you too and hearing you say this means a lot to me.” he told his boyfriend with a smile. He pressed their lips together once more, his hand moving so his fingers could run through his hair.

Resting his head on the pillow they were sharing, Alex his eyes ran over Ethan’s shoulder, arm and back up to his chest. There was more chest hair on it since the last time he had seen him and it made him chuckle. His fingers briefly touched the hair and he looked back up at him. “It feels like I’m seeing you for the first time. I have to say that I have a very hot boyfriend. “ he told him and leaned in to kiss him again, his hand resting on his chest. He used that hand to push him down on the mattress and followed him so he could hover on top of his body. “You’re not tired right?”

“Yeah?” Ethan murmured, relaxing into Alex’s touch as he felt the other’s fingers running through his hair. Alex had been so patient with him—he had never forced Ethan to say anything before he was ready. But when he did say it, it was worth it. But Ethan couldn’t imagine anyone else with Alex’s patience—Alex was perfect and he was his. It was hard to absorb, being there with him, but it was also very nice. He couldn’t help but relax as he felt Alex’s hand grazing up his chest. Ethan didn’t have the perfect body, but god damn if Alex didn’t worship him like he had one. Having his hands on him felt like fire, but he loved every second.

“The first time, huh? I can see that,” Ethan murmured, playing along with Alex. “You have a hot boyfriend? I dunno. I think I’m the one with the hot boyfriend.” He flashed his signature grin as their lips met in another kiss, and Ethan dared to deepen it. He had missed this terribly—being intimate with his boyfriend. No matter what kind of sex they had—fast or slow, romantic or fucking, they always had explosive chemistry. He could feel Alex’s hand upon his chest, pushing him flat against the mattress as the other hovered over him. Ethan could already feel a stirring in his briefs, and he couldn’t help but bite his lip when Alex asked if he was tired. He couldn’t help but laugh. “Nah, baby. With you, I’m wide awake.”

alexandermertens:

Moving in with Ethan was definitely the best decision he had ever made. He always thought that living together with someone would be terrible. You couldn’t go to bed whenever you wanted or you couldn’t stay up late cause it means they would annoy for having the tv on. You couldn’t eat when you felt like eating, you had to clean up after that person. It were all things that he had been scared of. Scared that he couldn’t just be himself anymore. But living with Ethan was anything but that, sometimes he felt like they were one person. They was no fighting,no moaning or groaning. They worked together like a perfectly oiled clock. 

Of course he hadn’t been able to enjoy his time with Ethan that much, after two months and a half the boy left for tour to promote his new album. a long tout filled with small and intimate shows. It was kinda like a tour to make up for lost time with his fans. Alex went to a few shows himself to see and support his boyfriend. They explored Las Vegas and Los Angeles together, which was really exciting for Alex since he had never really been outside Denver. The short times seeing his boyfriend and the endless phone calls and texts helped them pull through the hard time together. It hadn’t been easy but it also hadn’t been super hard for him. He trusted Ethan with his whole heart, he knew the man was away to follow his dream and make people happy with his music. Something he was extremely proud of.

With Ethan being away he spent most of his time watching his tv shows on netflix or reading the books he liked to order from Amazon every month. It wasn’t the most exciting life but this was just how he liked to spent his time. His sister and her boyfriend came all the way from Belgium to visit him so he spent some time with them and was forced to hear about how lucky he was to be dating a musician. He knew they were looking at the money part of things, but to Alex that wasn’t important at all. He would love Ethan just as much if he had a regular job and an average paycheck.

That night Alex went to bed around 11. He had a long day at work and felt like calling it a night early so he would be up and ready for Ethan who was coming home. In his head he was already planning the day. He would clean up a little in the morning and go grocery shopping so he could make Ethan’s favorite food and then he was pretty sure they would just end up making love all night. He was craving the man’s touch and kiss so hard, he really couldn’t wait to have him back in his arms again.

He felt strong arms wrap around his body and a voice whispering in his ear. Slowly opening his eyes, he moved his head so he could look back and see what was going on. “Ethan?” he asked a little confused. He wasn’t supposed to be home yet. Seeing his boyfriends sexy smile, he quickly turned around in his arms and started smiling himself. “Oh my god I was not expecting you.” He said with a chuckle, his eyes searching for his and his hand resting on his cheek as he leaned in and closed the gap between them. He breathed out heavily, his body relaxing visibly at the feeling of their lips pressed together. “I’ve missed you so much.” he whispered against his lips, his arms sneaking around him and holding him close.

“I know,” Ethan whispered, his grin growing wider as Alex twisted around to face here. Here Alex was—right in front of him, in the flesh. “I wanted to surprise you.” Ethan nuzzled Alex’s hand as he felt his boyfriend cup his cheek, his face flushing as Alex leaned in to close the gap between to press their lips together. It had been too long since their last kiss, but the seconds their lips touched it as if they had never been apart. Ethan smiled into the kiss, feeling his boyfriend visibly relax as the other’s arms snaked around him to pull him in tight.

Ethan continued to kiss Alex for several minutes before he finally dared to break away, his nose nuzzling against the other males. “I’ve missed you too, babe.” Ethan breathed out, his voice a husky tenor. “I’ve missed you so much. Being on tour away from you—fuck. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I’m glad I got to get out there and play my new music and see my fans... but it doesn’t make up for how much I missed you. Missed seeing you, talking to you, having you in my bed... just missing you.” Ethan knew he was talking fast—he couldn’t help it. He’d never been the greatest with words. He could write a love song, no problem: saying it took some actual guts, but it was definitely something he was working on. “I love you, Lex.” Ethan replied with a sappy smile, his hand rubbing the small of his back as he pulled Alex in for another kiss.

I’m Home — Alex & Ethan

Ethan let out a belated sigh as he stepped out of the elevator onto his floor, bags in hand. He really didn’t care if it was 2:30 in the morning and he was jet-lagged as hell—it was fucking nice to be home. He would’ve gotten home tomorrow regardless, but Ethan had decided to spring for a sooner flight in order to surprise Alex. It’d been months since he’d been inside Mile High Apartments, but it felt like he’d never left. Being on tour had been amazing—exhilarating, even. But Ethan had definitely missed being home at Denver with his friends and family. But most of all, he had missed his boyfriend. He missed Alex. Taking his paces down the hall, Ethan mentally counted the apartment numbers until he found the one that belonged to him—and Alex, too. They had finally gotten their own place together back in January, but Ethan had went off on tour—his first in quite some time—only a few months later. It’d been hard being apart from Alex. They had been sustained only by constant contact by phone and a few surprise trips when he’d brought Alex out to where he was on the road.

But despite that, they’d survived the time apart. It hadn’t been easy, especially at first, but Ethan thought Alex had handled himself very well, especially for someone who had never dated someone with a schedule like Ethan’s, with such large bouts of downtime followed by extensive time apart. But here they were. Alex was the one and only thing on Ethan’s mind. It’d been his first tour where he’d found himself in a relationship... a real, serious relationship. It had been different, but it was definitely in a good way. Ethan had learned a lot, but he was so glad to be home. Because honestly? He was in love with Alex. He had been in love with him before he had left for the tour, even if he hadn’t been able to say it loud. He had been in love with him the first time he said it, over the phone before one of his shows Ethan had gotten anxious about. He’d been in love with him the first time he’d said it to his face, when he’d flown Alex out to see him in Japan after almost two months apart. And he loved him now that he was home. Ethan loved Alex now more now than ever. They had made the right choice to get together, and they had made the right choice to move in together, too. It was uncharted ground for Ethan, but he wouldn’t want to experience it with anyone else. This was the man he could see himself spending the rest of his life with.

His hands were shaky as he placed his key into the door to unlock it. Ethan was so fucking nervous, but in a good way. Opening up the door, he let out a soft sigh as he walked over the threshold into the living room—looking (almost) the way it had when Ethan left, he couldn’t help but smile softly. The apartment was still and dark in the midst of the night. Ethan had told Alex that he’d be home tomorrow, so it was really no surprise that he was in bed. Ethan did his best to shut the door behind him without making a sound, leaving his bags in the living room. He’d deal with that later. He wanted to see man he’d been apart from all this time. Creeping down the hallway, he made the familiar turn towards their bedroom. Slipping off his Converse, he shimmied out his skinny jeans as he tiptoed towards the bed they hadn’t shared together in months. A small smile crept onto Ethan’s face when he saw Alex’s sleeping form, and he knew that he was finally home. This was where he needed to be. As he climbed into bed, Ethan eased himself under the covers, hoping that his stealth had paid off and he hadn’t woken Alex up. Snuggling up against Alex, Ethan looped his arms around him as he pressed a loving kiss to his neck.

“Babe? I caught an earlier flight. It’s me... I’m home.”
