It was early morning in the darkness of their cell. He was still groggy from sleep but he had felt Sam stir next to him and knew he was waking too. He turned so he could press a kiss to his shoulder, other hand coming to rest on his chest where it stroked patterns into his skin, “It’s my birthday today,” he murmured quietly.
As Samuel feels Hugo’s soft touch, his eyes flicker open, instinctually glancing towards the bars of their cell door, ensuring he cannot see the glow of a patrolling guard’s lantern, before responding.
“Mmm…Birthday boy.” He practically growls, his voice still somewhat gruff from sleep as he carefully turns in their small bunk to face Hugo. As his hand gently eases up his cellmate’s spine, his fingers lightly dance over the jutting curvature of his back bone. In truth they are both overly lean from being undernourished, but to Samuel’s mind that only makes it all the more important the he takes the time with his touch to remind Hugo just how much his body pleases him, no matter what form it takes. It is comfort and it is warmth; it is the body of the man who has come to mean more to him than any other, the man who has become Samuel’s reason for living.
“I’ll take you out to the city for a fine supper and drinks…” He grins, eyes glittering in the dark as his hand slides down Hugo’s back to slip under the waistband of his prison issue pants, allowing Samuel to take pleasure in softly gripping a good handful of Hugo’s warm rear.
Tilting his head he peppers the man’s jaw with soft biting kisses. “…and after we’re finished, I’ll take you to the theatre…” The hand on Hugo’s rear is no longer squeezing but is flat now, used to push his cellmate into him so that in that tender collision, Hugo can feel the hard heat of Samuel, thick against his thigh.
“…when we get back to the guest house, drunk and giddy, we’ll take a hot bath in a huge copper tub and then, dressed only in the flicker of firelight, I’ll bathe every inch of you in bubbles…”
Sam is practically rutting against Hugo now, hands hungrily exploring his taut stomach and chest as he encourages his cellmate’s stark arousal with steady, rhythmic rolls of his hips. Hearing the unmistakable sound of footfalls, he pauses abruptly, frozen in position, only when the volume of those footsteps begins to mercifully recede, does he continue, this time with renewed vigour.
Sensing they may not have much time, he hungrily thrusts his hand down between Hugo’s legs to take an indulgently firm hold of him.
“…and then I’ll take you to bed and under the finest silk sheets I’ll make you scream louder than you ever thought possible.”
Knowing they must stay deadly silent, he quickly claims Hugo’s mouth in a deep kiss, eager to consume his quiet moans before they are aired.
