What about some Rami angst. Maybe it’s his first time with Ben and he’s really insecure about himself but Ben lets him know how much he loves him by being soft and gentle with him.
Ben leans in, tilting his head, smiling faintly as he kisses Rami. Rami makes a quiet noise and lifts his hands to Ben’s shoulders, holding onto him as their mouths move together. Ben grasps onto Rami’s hips, fingers pushing up under the hem of his black sweater, and then he gently tugs.
Rami makes another noise, but he lets Ben guide him onto his lap. Rami moves his hands to Ben’s face, cupping his cheeks as they keep kissing.
“Let me,” Ben murmurs, pulling back a bit, grabbing onto the fabric of Rami’s sweater.
“Okay,” Rami says, sitting back, blinking a couple times, lifting his arms up for Ben to tug his sweater over his head, dropping it down onto the sofa.
Ben’s eyes move up and down over Rami’s chest, and then he slowly smiles, looking back up to meet his eyes. “God, you’re fit,” Ben says, and Rami smiles faintly, but looks down. “Mm,” Ben murmurs, leaning back in to gently press his lips over Rami’s collarbone, hands moving up over Rami’s bare back, feeling the shift of his muscles beneath his skin. Ben nuzzles against him, and briefly rests his forehead against Rami’s chest.
“Are you okay?” Rami asks, pushing his fingers through Ben’s hair, and Ben tilts his head, looking up at him, smiling and nodding.
“I just want to make it good,” Ben says. “And you’re so…I just need to collect my thoughts for a second.”
“Oh,” Rami says, “I— you don’t have to worry about that.”
“Of course I do,” Ben says. “It’s our first time, it should be special.” He smiles and glances around his living room, then looks back at Rami. “This isn’t the most romantic spot in my flat.”
“I don’t mind,” Rami says. “I— it’s nicer than some places people have taken me.”
Ben’s smile fades a bit. “Oh,” he says softly. “Well, uh…would you like to go to my bedroom?” he asks. Rami nods, and is just about to move to climb off Ben’s lap, but Ben just wraps his arms around him and then stands up.
“Oh my god,” Rami says, locking his ankles behind Ben’s back. “You…wow.”
“Okay?” Ben asks, sliding one of his hands under Rami’s ass, holding tight to him, and Rami just smiles and nods. He glances behind them as Ben walks down them down the hall to his bedroom, and then Rami looks back at Ben, pulling him into a kiss. Ben stops walking for a moment, pressing Rami back agains the wall by his bedroom door, and then he pulls back, and steps into his room. He walks over to his bed, and leans down, gently pressing Rami onto the mattress.
“God, Ben,” Rami says, arching up beneath him, pulling Ben down on top of him, pulling him into a kiss. “You don’t have to be so…”
“Nice?” Ben offers, and Rami reddens a bit, and shrugs. “Of course I do,” he says. He leans in, his mouth by Rami’’s ear. “I love you, you know,” he whispers.
Rami closes his eyes, biting back a grin. “I love you too,” he whispers back, and Ben pulls back with a smile on his face.
“Good,” Ben says, “I’m happy to hear it.” He shifts on top of Rami, reaching out to cup his face in his hands, trailing his fingers over his cheek. “You deserve it, you know,” he says softly, kissing Rami’s shoulder.
“Oh, I—” Rami shifts a bit under Ben, but then Ben leans in to press a kiss to his lips.
“Let me show you that, okay?” Ben asks, and Rami watches him as Ben pushes himself up, tugging off his own shirt.
“Okay,” Rami says softly, and he reaches out, wrapping his arms around Ben to pull him back on top of him.
