You wake to the thin buzz of your phone skittering across the nightstand. Morning light cuts a pale stripe across the sheets and your face is still pressed into the cool side of the pillow when you squint at the screen.
Ken: i hate practice already
Ken: don’t care. i hate it. tell me i’m doing good
Ken: that was too fast. again
You: you’re doing good, ken
You rub sleep out of your eyes and grin.
You: you’re perfect. now stretch before you pull something
Ken: bossy. stay home. i want you there when i get back
You toss the phone onto the comforter and roll onto your back, the smile lingering. He’s not really mad. He’s in that mood he gets when he’s been locked in mirrors too long: dramatic on the surface, needy underneath. A little baby-girl sulk that only unwinds when he hears your voice tell him exactly what he already knows.
By the time coffee is brewing, another vibration lands against your palm.
Ken: did three run-throughs. legs: dead. choreographer: evil
You: or maybe you’re being a brat
Ken: wow. hurtful. say i’m clean on the last eight or i’m quitting the industry
You: you were clean. sharp. hot.
Ken: better. send a kiss for luck
You hold your phone up and send a quick kissy selfie, hair messy, mug half in frame. His heart pops up on the screen almost immediately.
Ken: keep the bed warm and the mouth sweeter
You set the phone down because your face is a little too warm for someone who’s been awake for twelve minutes.
The day moves in little pockets of him: laundry, emails, dishes, all threaded with his pings. Between loads, he reappears.
Ken: we’re changing formations. i’m center more. say you’re proud
You: i’m proud of you, ken
Ken: again, but talk to me like i’m right there
You: i’m proud of you. i see you. you look so good when you work like this
Ken: keep that in your mouth for later
You laugh at the counter and nearly drop a plate.
At lunch, you sit cross-legged with a bowl in your lap and watch his newest practice clip with the volume low. He’s a streak of sweat and intention in the mirror, cutting through the eight counts like he’s carving air into something that only he can own. When the camera passes close, his eyes land on his own reflection with a look you recognize—a hard little line of focus that always makes your chest pull tight.
He must feel your gaze from across the city because a new message flashes.
Ken: not enough. say you couldn’t look away
You: i couldn’t look away
Ken: good. keep watching me when i get home
The afternoon stretches and softens. You change the sheets, open a window, let a faint breeze lift the curtains. You tidy his nightstand because he pretends he likes the clutter but always sleeps easier when it’s clear: the chain dish centered, lip balm, a capped pen, the folded receipt he swore he needed for something. You pull the duvet smooth and stand back, just to let the image click into place in your head—the door, the thud of his bag, the way his shoulders drop when he sees you.
Near five, your phone hums again. The preview shows a mirror selfie: Ken’s shirt is damp and clinging, hair pushed off his forehead. He’s not smiling; he’s pouting on purpose. The kind of pout he only lets out with you.
You: shower. water. electrolytes. me
Ken: say you’ll let me in before the key even turns
You: i’ll have it cracked open
Ken: good. and you’ll tell me i was perfect the second i cross it
You: the second you cross it
You leave the door unlatched like you promised. The apartment is golden and quiet by the time the sky starts to turn. You put your phone on the kitchen island, screen up. Every soft sound feels louder—water filling a glass, the whisper of the curtain, your own breath steadying because you know what he’s like when he’s wound tight with work and praise and the friction of wanting to be seen.
When the lock clicks, it’s almost a relief. You don’t go to meet him at the entry; you wait where the light is warmest, leaning a hip against the counter with the glass already in your hand.
His sneakers thud, then skid off in a messy tangle. The strap of his bag scrapes the wall and drops. And then he’s there, filling the doorway—shirt stuck to him, jaw working, eyes sweeping the room like he’s checking for one thing and one thing only.
He takes it but doesn’t lift it. He just stares at you over the rim, the bratty sulk still alive in the set of his mouth.
Something loosens in the line of his shoulders. He drinks, throat working, then sets the glass down with a muted clink he doesn’t look away from you to place. The kitchen’s small sounds fold in around the heavy way he breaths.
“Again,” he says, stepping into your space, the heat of him rising off his skin.
“You were perfect,” you repeat, and this time your voice is lower because he is closer, and he’s still not touching, and that feels deliberate.
He reaches out and finds your waistband like he’s been tuning himself to that move all day. Two fingers hook and pull, not enough to move you, just enough to claim.
“Did you keep it warm?” he asks, eyes dragging down your body and back up with lazy hunger.
“Did you think about me?” His tone is careless, teasing, but the question sits heavy between you.
“Where?” The word lands like a fingertip between your ribs.
His mouth twitches. The sulk fractures around the edges, letting the real thing shine through. He leans in, breath skimming your cheek. You can smell the studio on him still—cleaner and sweat and something stubbornly his.
“Say you’re proud,” he murmurs.
“Again.” It’s gentler now, a request wearing the voice of a demand because he likes the echo.
He presses his forehead to yours for a second and inhales like he needs the air from your lungs to finish the day. Your hands lift to the damp heat of his back, and he shivers once under your palms—an involuntary release, the kind he never lets the mirrors catch.
“Bedroom,” he says, not bothering to disguise how quickly the word leaves him.
He doesn’t drag you; he walks you, close enough that you keep tripping over his feet and laughing under your breath while his hand never leaves your waist. The hallway feels shorter than usual. The bed, freshly made, looks like a dare.
He notices the cleared nightstand and the centered little dish. The corner of his mouth tips, half a thank-you, half a promise to mess it all up again just because he can.
“Turn around,” he says, voice low but not yet rough, something softer threading the edges. When you do, his hands settle on your hips, warm and heavy, anchoring you there at the foot of the bed like he’s deciding how long he wants to make you wait. He’s not teasing you to be cruel; he’s teasing himself, too—dragging out the moment where everything flips.
Your phone buzzes on the dresser with one last message, sent from inches away just because he knows how the sound lands in your gut.
You glance at the screen, then at him over your shoulder. “You earned me.”
“Why?” His thumbs press into the curve of your hips, not hard, just a promise of pressure.
“Because you’re perfect,” you say, heat sliding through your voice. “Because you worked for it. Because I watched you and couldn’t look away.”
He exhales through his nose, long and satisfied, and some hidden knot in him finally slips free. He kisses the hinge of your jaw—quick, claiming—then straightens, palms skimming down your sides like he’s mapping what’s his.
“Good,” he says, and now the word is different. The sulk is gone. What’s left is focus sharpening into intent. “You’re going to keep talking like that.”
Your breath hitches. “Yes.”
“And you’re going to keep your eyes on me when I tell you to.” His tone drops, a subtle click into place. “You’re going to be good for me.”
You nod, already soft in the middle just from the way he’s looking at you.
He leans past you and folds the duvet back with one hand, neat as a ritual. The room is quiet enough to hear the fabric whisper and the small sound your body makes answering his attention. He notices—of course he does. His mouth curves, satisfied.
“Get on the bed,” he says, and the way he says it tells you the day is finally over, that everything he held tight in mirrors and marked floors is loosening now, here, on your skin.
You crawl onto the mattress and settle on your back, heartbeat a steady drum that seems to pull him closer. He comes over you in a slow, sure climb—knee to mattress, palm to sheet beside your head, the weight of him settling like he’s righted his world.
He kisses you, just once, deep and warm and possessive enough to make your toes curl. When he pulls back, you’re breathless, and he’s smiling that small, devastating smile he only gives you when the day has finally bent to his will.
“Good,” he repeats, thumb stroking the corner of your mouth. “Now keep your voice sweet.”
He kisses you again, slower this time, letting the day slide off his shoulders into your mouth. The sulk is still there in the set of his lips, in the way he lingers like he wants to be spoiled with touch and words before anything else. His nose drags your cheek. He breathes you in.
“Say it one more time,” he whispers, thumb stroking the corner of your mouth. “Make it sweet.”
A small, satisfied sound slips from him. “Good.”
His hands move—patient at first, not rough, mapping you like he’s been thinking about this exact path all day. He lifts your shirt slowly, watching your face as he bares your skin inch by inch, heat blooming wherever his palms pass. He kisses your sternum, the soft inside of your arm, your shoulder, like he’s collecting you. When his mouth closes over your nipple, his tongue flicks, measured, and the praise you gave him vibrates between your teeth and the pillow.
“Use your voice,” he says against your skin, not letting up. “You know what I want to hear.”
“You’re good,” you breathe, back arching. “You’re so good.”
He smiles against you—there it is, that baby-girl bratty curve—then bites down just enough to make your breath hitch. “Better.”
His mouth trails lower. He nudges your hips and you lift for him, and this time there’s no half-measure. He drags your bottoms and underwear down in one rough pull and drops them where they fall, gaze locked on you like the neat nightstand, the folded duvet, the entire apartment were arranged as an offering for this moment. His hands spread you open, thumbs pressing gently, and he goes still for a beat, eyes dark, like he’s letting himself have the view.
“Been thinking about this all day,” he says, voice gone low. “Open for me.”
You do. He bends, kisses the inside of your knee, then the seam of your thigh, easing himself into it. The first lick is slow, deliberate, heat and patience. He’s not filthy yet; he’s savoring—flat tongue, firm pressure, everything measured to draw out the drop in your belly. His hands anchor your thighs, wide and steady. When your breath stutters, he hums against you like he’s pleased with himself.
“Eyes on me,” he reminds you without looking up.
You force your gaze down; he meets it, and the smug, spoiled satisfaction there makes your stomach flip. The next stroke is harder. Then harder. The patience frays, the sulk melting into focus. He rolls your clit under his tongue, unhurried but consuming, and when your hips twitch up for more, his grip tightens, keeping you where he wants you.
“Good,” he says, breath hot against you. “Keep them on me.”
Two fingers slide inside on the next pass—slow at first, then knuckle-deep, curling until your lungs forget how to work. He finds the spot and presses, steady, rhythm building the way he builds choreography—clean, precise, no wasted motion. Your heels climb the sheets. Your hands find his hair. He lets you pull, just enough.
“Tell me why I’m here,” he says, voice roughening as his pace quickens. “Go on.”
“Because you were perfect.” The words shake. “Because you earned me.”
“You were perfect. You earned me.”
He smiles against you, then loses the last of his patience. The restraint snaps. His tongue turns greedy, unapologetic, a steady drag that turns to a hard suck, then a merciless thrash. His fingers pump harder, curling with purpose, and the praise tumbles out of you in ragged pieces—good, so good, perfect—and each one rips another sound out of him.
“Beg,” he orders, mouth slick against you.
“Please,” you gasp, already shaking. “Please let me come. Please, Ken.”
“Because you’re perfect. You’re so—so perfect—”
That’s all he needed to hear. He bites lightly, sucks hard, fingers drilling, and the pressure inside you detonates. Your orgasm hits fast and mean; you cry out, body bowing off the mattress as he holds you open and devours every tremor. He doesn’t back off. He licks you down, relentless, until you’re panting, too sensitive, fingers scrabbling at his shoulders.
Only then does he slow. He kisses the inside of your thigh, a warm, wet stamp of ownership, and crawls up your body. The kiss he gives you is filthy, softened only by the way he cradles the back of your head while he shares the taste of you.
“That’s one,” he says against your mouth, tone gone darker. “We’re not close to done.”
His mouth finds your ear. “Hands up.”
You lift your arms; he collects your wrists in one palm and pins them to the pillow. The shift is complete now—no pout, no softness left in his voice. He’s calm, in control, humming with the satisfaction of being exactly where he wants to be.
“Tell me what you want,” he says, stroking your ribs with his free hand like he’s petting a skittish thing even while he’s caging it.
“You,” you whisper. “I want you.”
A dangerous little smile. “There she is.”
He stands long enough to tear his clothes off—no theatrics, just urgency—then comes back over you, all heat and hard muscle. He fists himself once, slow, like he’s letting you look on purpose. The head drags through your slick and your body jumps.
“You think about this while I was gone?” he asks, filthy starting to bloom at the edges of his words. “Think about how deep I’d put it?”
“I thought about your cock inside me.”
He nudges in—not slamming, not yet—just enough for the stretch to burn a sweet line through you. He watches your face as he sinks deeper, deeper, slow enough that you feel every inch, until his hips kiss yours and you’re clutching the sheets like rope.
“Eyes on me,” he says again, hand at your jaw, holding you there while he pulls back and drives in, harder. The next thrust is sharp. The one after that is downright cruel. “Keep talking.”
“You’re good,” you gasp. “You’re perfect.”
He laughs, breathless, like your praise tastes even better than your mouth. The rhythm he sets is brutal in its control—deep strokes that bottom out, each one placed like a mark he refuses to miss. The headboard ticks a warning against the wall. Your wrists strain under his hold; he tightens his grip and leans in, chest sliding against yours, heat burning everywhere you touch.
“Tell me no one fucks you like I do,” he says, filthy now, voice gone shredded silk.
“No one,” you choke. “No one but you.”
His free hand slides down, palm firm at your throat—not squeezing, just there, reminding—then lower to your chest, your stomach, finally your clit. He circles once, mean and light, just enough to make your eyes fly wide. He smiles like he’s got you on strings.
“Gonna come for me again?” His thumb barely brushes. “Be good. Do it while I’m inside you.”
“Please,” you beg, already there. “Please—”
“I’m proud of you,” you blurt, the words ripping out of you. “You were perfect. You’re perfect. Please—”
He groans, broken open by that, and his control cracks. The thrusts turn punishing, thumb pressing down, and you shatter—violent, bright, clenching around him so hard he swears and drives through it, chasing the way you milk him. Your vision whites. Your voice goes high and wrecked with his name.
He doesn’t let go. Not of your wrists, not of your praise. He rides you, relentless, until he feels you start to come down—and then he slows, breath sawing, trembling with the effort of holding himself back.
“Turn over,” he pants, releasing your wrists. “Now.”
You roll onto your stomach; he drags you up onto your knees and folds you at the edge of the bed, chest down, hips high. His palm smooths down your spine, possessive, then grabs your hips and yanks you back. He slides in again in one ruthless stroke, a groan punched out of him at the heat of you.
“Look at you.” His voice is wrecked and thrilled. “Taking me like you were made for it.”
He sets a new pace—short, savage thrusts that grind you into the mattress, his hand splayed on your lower back to keep you right where he wants you. The filth in him has bloomed fully now.
“Say it,” he grits. “Say I’m the best you’ve ever had.”
“You are,” you cry, almost incoherent. “You are—”
“You’re the best—fuck—Ken, you’re the best—”
“That’s right.” He leans over your back, hand sliding under you to toy with your clit again, faster now. “Give it to me. Be good and give it.”
You come so hard you go silent—mouth open, no sound, body clamping around him in waves that drag a ragged curse out of his throat. He drives through it, pace faltering, almost losing it—then he grinds to a stop, buried deep, breathing like he’s been running.
“Up,” he orders, voice low, frayed. He pulls out and flips you onto your back, hauling you to the very edge by your knees. He looks down at you—wrecked, glassy-eyed—and his mouth curves, dark and fond all at once. “One more. You’re gonna give me one more, and you’re going to tell me exactly how good I am while I take it.”
He hooks your legs over his forearms and folds you nearly in half, lining up and sliding back in, deeper than before. The angle steals your breath; he knows it and uses it, rolling his hips to grind exactly where you’re tender and desperate. His eyes never leave your face.
“Talk,” he says, thrust by thrust. “Say it.”
“You’re perfect,” you whimper, then louder when he lifts his brows. “You’re perfect.”
“You’re so good—so fucking good—no one else—just you—”
“You earned me, you earned this, I’m yours—please don’t stop—”
He breaks on a laugh that sounds like a groan and a prayer in the same breath. The last of his control burns off. He hammers into you, filthy now, unforgiving, chasing your words like they’re oxygen. When your head tips back, he catches your jaw and brings your eyes to his.
“Stay with me,” he says, voice a rasp. “Look at me when you come.”
You nod, tears pricking from the intensity. He presses his forehead to yours, breath mingling with yours, and drives you over the edge one last time. You splinter with your gaze caught in his, the sound that leaves you raw and desperate. He curses, thrusts hard, and finally lets himself go—buried deep, heat spilling, a broken sound vibrates against your mouth as he kisses you through it.
Silence folds in around the harsh rhythm of your breathing. He stays inside, heavy and hot, holding your legs where they are until the tremors quiet. Then his grip loosens. He slides your thighs down and gathers you in, turning you onto your side without leaving your body, chest to your back, one arm locked across your middle.
“Say it,” he whispers into your hair, softer now, a spent kind of greedy.
He hums, satisfied to the bone. His mouth finds your shoulder—one last kiss, lazy and claiming. His hand trails low, palm resting over your belly like he’s anchoring himself to the praise still lingering in the air.
“Good girl,” he says, voice gone warm again. “You keep talking like that, and I’ll keep ruining you.”
You huff a breath that could be a laugh if you weren’t so thoroughly wrung out. “Promise?”
His answering smile curves against your skin. “That’s the plan.”
You feel him there—sated, smug, a little sulky even in victory because he already wants the next time—and you know the rest of the night is going to be quiet in the best way. His hand stays heavy at your waist. His breath evens at your neck. And every time your muscles flutter around him, even the smallest aftershock, he makes a pleased, low sound like he’s tallying up proof.
“Perfect,” he says one last time, the word soft and proud. “Say it again in the morning.”
