“Jesus, Teddy,” he whispered and then cleared his throat to try to get his voice to sound more normal.
“I’m pretty new to this,” Theo murmured, and he took a step forward, eyes flashing with desire, “But I figure you probably need to be naked, too, right?”
Breathless, Eric nodded, and Theo reached out and hooked his fingers into the hem of Eric’s t-shirt. His fingertips scraped over Eric’s sensitive skin, skating over his nipples, as Theo drew the shirt off and then they were both naked, both achingly hard, both very ready for each other.
For a moment, they just let each other really look. They had been intimate before, but it had always been pretty rushed. Not a lot of time taken just to explore each other.
“Do you know …” Eric took a deep breath. Why was it so hard to talk about this? It had always been so simple, at least the few times he had let himself hook up with guys. It was a conversation that he had before the meeting even took place, and it was different doing it in person. “Do you want to top or bottom, Teddy?”
Well, at least he got to see the other man blush after he put the question so bluntly. It was so adorable, the wash of color over those amazing high cheekbones, making Eric desperate to both ravish him and to hug him tightly and never let him go.
“I, uh …” Theo took a deep breath, visibly trying to pull himself together. “When I pictured doing it, I was always topping. I’d try either, though.”
Eric nodded because somehow that fit. Though,it was news to him that Theo had thought about this at all. He was intrigued and would have to ask more about that. Later. When he could think around his hard, throbbing dick.
There was no question that he wouldn’t give Theo what he wanted. Just as Eric had told Theo, he was a virgin with guys that way, he’d never let himself be taken like that, but wasn’t that somehow perfect? His first time at the same time that it was Theo’s?
“Okay.” Eric swallowed down the nerves. He could trust Theo. He knew that Theo would want to make it as good for him as possible. He just needed to be led through it. So he stretched up a little on his tiptoes and pressed a kiss to Theo’s lips, then took him by the hand and led him toward the bedroom.
Had any of the men, any of the people, Eric had taken into his bed felt as nervous as he felt? Had they felt acutely aware of their own bodies? As open, as vulnerable?
Taking a deep breath, Eric laid himself down on the bed, then remembered something important. He rolled onto his side and fumbled in the drawer beside the bed, pulling out a bottle of lube and a box of condoms.
With that done, Eric rolled over onto his back and beckoned Theo over to him. “Come kiss me,” he invited. Once Theo got caught up in it, he knew that the other man wouldn’t be nearly as scared as he was now. The same went for Eric, actually. Once the tension built, then he very much hoped that neither of them would even be able to hold back.
Theo was on him in a second, like he had just been waiting for the invitation, and Eric couldn’t help but groan softly as he felt the hot, silky slide of Theo’s skin against him. Then Theo was kissing him, plunging his tongue into Eric’s mouth, and Eric realized something very quickly.
Theo hadn’t been holding back out of nerves. Or not fully, anyway. The dominance in that kiss, the sheer possessive claiming, made it very clear to Eric that Theo had simply been waiting for permission to do what he wanted. Once he got it, it was like …
… Well, it was a lot like he wasn’t going to have to teach Theo about how this worked nearly as much as either of them had assumed.
Eric let himself get lost in that kiss, their tongues meeting, slipping, tangling together, and he must have really been focused on that because he didn’t even notice when Theo grabbed the lube. He just felt the younger man’s strong legs press between his, then felt the cold caress of a slick finger over the virginal entrance to his body.
“Oh fuck, Teddy,” Eric moaned, and he spread his legs wide, as wide as they would go, and pushed his hips toward that teasing finger. Arching his body, he struggled to get it inside of him, and when he felt the slippery tip of that one finger breach him, he moaned and looked into Theo’s eyes, eager and willing and wanting Theo to know that.
He didn’t want anything to stop this.
“Oh my God, Eric, your face,” Theo murmured, as he eased that one finger inside of him, sending shivers through Eric’s body. It was uncomfortable, a little, but Theo was using so much lube, and he was so gentle that it didn’t hurt. Even when Theo started to slip another finger in, he took it easily enough. “You look so hot right now.”
Eric groaned softly, not sure if he should be angry about that if Theo was making fun of him. But then he saw the glow of admiration in those lovely eyes, and he decided he didn’t even care if he was being teased. It was gentle, and Theo had said that he was hot, so he was going to take it as a win.
Slowly, slowly, Eric opened up to the pressure of Theo’s fingers, and then it started to feel good, little shivers of pleasure around the discomfort of being stretched. Then came the moment where Theo’s questing fingertips brushed over Eric’s prostate, and he gasped and had to grimly hold on to his sanity even as his balls drew up tight, lava pumping through his veins as he trembled on the brink of release.
This wasn’t how he wanted to come. He knew he could. There could be no doubt about that. And he didn’t even doubt that he could go again pretty soon after. But he was aching deep inside of himself to be filled up in a way that even those long fingers couldn’t do.
“Now,” Eric moaned, clenching his muscles around Theo, desperate for that feeling of being filled. “Now, baby, fuck me.”
He’d had dreams about this, and he’d fantasized about it until he shot off all over his hand time after time. But this was so much better, so much more real and vivid and intense. This was everything he’d wanted, and part of him wanted to seal the deal, to have Theo inside of him, before something happened to stop it.
Luckily for him, it seemed that Theo was just as eager for it to happen. Eric reached over for a condom and carefully tore open the crinkly, shiny foil packet. With trembling hands, he unrolled the sheath onto Theo’s beautiful cock, and it felt a little strange to be doing this to another man’s cock instead of his own, but also perfect.
He had it in place soon enough, and then he pushed his legs wide open. He wanted to do this looking into Theo’s eyes, face to face. He wanted to see every last bit of pleasure that he was giving Theo as they looked at each other, wanted to watch that gorgeous face as their bodies merged for the first time.
“Ready?” Theo eased on top of him, his long, hot body laid out on top of Eric’s, his knees and hips resting between his open legs. The head of his cock rested against Eric’s entrance, and Eric took a deep, deep breath, knowing that he was going to need to relax to take this man inside of himself.
“Yeah, Teddy, I’m ready,” Eric admitted, and he was very glad, suddenly, that he’d chosen this position. When he met Theo’s eyes, when he saw the love there, he wasn’t afraid anymore, and it was much easier to draw the air into his lungs and through his whole body.
“I love you,” Theo whispered, and then he pushed his hips forward, just a little bit. The head of his cock slid inside Eric, who kept his gaze on Theo and focused on him. He had never trusted anyone else before to do this to him, and he was glad now that he hadn’t.
