Yugi had imagined this so many times and his imagination had never done it justice. He had pictured it, used his own hands even to do some pale imitation of what he imagined Atem's touch would feel like. And yes, he'd even pleasured himself after he became sexually frustrated, only to then feel guilt about it after.
But that was before they confessed to one another and he felt it was wrong to fantasize to that degree about his partner who was no longer there. Only to do it again and of course feel the same guilt. It seemed like a never ending loop. He felt even more guilt in the weeks it took to finally come back here to him. He knew how it felt to kiss his partner then and had "new material" to use in his fantasies.
But his own hands couldn't even begin to compare to Atem's and his brain hadn't been able to recreate the feeling of the Pharaoh's lips on his in a way that was even close to reality. The soft, warm pressure of their kiss.. The short and sharp sting of the nip to his lower lip that had him warming even further and had his breath catching in his throat before he returned the kisses given to him.
All the while, the hand he'd put at the back of Atem's neck trailed back over to his shoulder, while the other went to take the place of the first. He was slowly losing his inhibitions about touching at least in safe places the more his desire grew and found he couldn't keep still even from the most simple touch.
That simple, barely there pressure from Atem's hand on his stomach had his abdomen muscles softly clenching. The feather light trail of nails spiked his breathing once again as goosebumps rose. He knew he was a virgin, but he didn't know he'd be this sensitive to his partner's touch for the first time. Especially not after he'd been pleasuring himself while imagining it was the Pharaoh touching him.
But hadn't he even admitted to himself that his own touch didn't compare? Even when the kiss broke and he regained his sense of sight with his eyes opening to half lids, his skin warmed and tingled in a trail from where he was touched. All the way up until the other man reached his chest and he managed to bite his lip to keep a moan from fully spilling free.
Even then though, it may be muffled, but he only managed to make it sound somewhere between a whine and a whimper as his body arched eagerly into his partner's touch. The involuntary reactions would have been more embarrassing if the warmth inside wasn't beginning to burn hotter. As it were, he was still shy enough to muffle himself. But between the hot claiming marks, kisses, caresses and seeing the irises staring back at him, darkened with answering lust who could blame him?
And that was another thing. Atem, a man who had once been Pharaoh. The one who was now a literal God, was looking at him that way. Wanting him. But then, he was more so his partner and his soulmate than he was either of those things wasn't he? His Godhood hadn't stopped Yugi from kissing him and confessing his love last time. Why should it stop him now? Not that it would of course, but it was still amazing to think that an actual God desired him this much.
"I.. I'm barely getting used to this.." he admitted through breaths that were indeed panting by now. "Don't tease me, At--emmm~"
Of course, right in the middle of what he was trying to say, that skilled hand had found his nipple. And the attention it was given had it hardening in no time as the hikari arched his back into it, his teeth biting hard into his lip.
It seemed only some parts of him were being honest about what he truly wanted though. His legs that had been laying comfortably on the bed a moment before, rose and settled loosely around his partner. Only for him to realize what he'd done and lower them again, his cheeks flushing from pink to red. That didn't keep his hands from tightening on the other man's shoulders though in attempt to bring him closer.
And just when he was getting used to the gentle teasing on his nipple, Atem asked him about whether or not he fantasized. And just before Yugi could feel embarrassed, the pinch came that had him arching his back again. His teeth didn't have a chance to bite down this time. His mouth popped open and the moans he was holding back spilled out.
"Yeeesss~" It seemed that such a move also worked as a truth talisman as well as a brain fogger. He answered without thinking, forgot why he shouldn't reveal that truth even. "E-Even m-more after ahhh ourrr kissesss.."
Could he really hope to hide anything from, Atem though? If he was asking, he probably already knew anyway. Not that he could hide anymore, his member was already half erect in his pants by now, making the material slightly tight and constricting on already sensitive skin.
