—– @sparkhe said : ❛ good morning . kiss my muse the morning after .
he cannot quite recall the last moment essek had felt truly safe and secure ; enough so to fall asleep in the presence of the man who had stolen his heart so completely . safe enough to fall into his bed and let him gingerly undress him and ravish him until essek could no longer recall any of the stresses from the past week . all he knew now was the heavenly mattress ( a far-cry from the futon inside his safehouse ) , the soft and warm sheets , and the feeling of gilmore's body pressed against his own .
he does not realize he had fallen asleep instead of a trance until he awoke the next morning . the morning sunlight began to stream through the crack in the curtains and gently tracing the floor , the faint light rousing essek from a deep slumber . he comes back to his body and shifts , relishing in the delicious ache in his thighs and hips , the sting of love bites dotting his collarbones , and the presence of a warm body pressed to his back . an arm around his slender waist squeezes and tucks him closer ; a tilt of his head and the blinking of his eyes , to see gilmore watching him with a tenderness that makes essek's heart ache .
heart in his throat , he shifts until he has rolled onto his back , body tilted and turned towards gilmore , a drowsy yet content smile curled in his lips . he watches his lover carefully , eyes surveying the contours of his face , though relaxed all the while . without thought , he succumbs to the first impulse he felt from the moment they locked eyes - he leans in and seals their lips together sweetly , reaching out to grasp gilmore's bare shoulder for balance . and he remains for as long as they both have air to breathe , panting softly as they pull away just enough that their lips brushed against one another still . it is all essek can do to keep himself from laughing too hard ; only a sweet , breathy chuckle airs between them .
" good morning . "
LOUD & DEAFENING SILENCE - accepting !
