Zevran had been behaving. This in itself was enough of a marvel. The fact that behaving in this case meant keeping his hands to himself and accepting whatever little crumbs of affection Alistair felt ready to give was...mind-boggling, truly.
But he could read the uncertainty in every line of Alistair's body, and he was remarkably patient despite his own claims to the contrary. So he kept his hands to himself, he didn't push, and he was patient.
...yet that didn't mean he intended to allow Alistair to ignore that spark between them. And now that some time had passed, it seemed the other man needed a reminder. A very pointed, very attractive, very naked reminder.
Which is why, when Alistair stepped into the bathing room at his usual time, it was already hot with steam. As if by pure accident, Zevran was standing from the large round bathing pool the moment Alistair stepped inside--back to him, dark lines of his tattoo swirling down his back, his flank, drawing the eye just as the rivulets of water sluicing along dusky skin drew the eye.
His hair was loose and damp, clinging to his (bare) shoulders. His (bare) ass, if Zevran did so say himself, was perfect. In fact, he would make a strong argument that all of him was perfect. He was betting on Alistair thinking the same.
Zevran looked over his shoulder as the door swung shut behind Alistair, knowing his muscles played beautifully beneath his skin. "Alistair," he murmured. Just that.

I wish you to bite along my shoulders, my back, as your fingers spread me open for your cock. Oh, how you will feel as you push inside me, fuck me, take me, claim me, hands holding my hips steady as you slide deeper and deeper--"

"Zev- Zevran I'm going to... Please-" He wasn't sure what he was asking for, though this never, ever stopping might be nice.

Date: 2015-09-07 02:11 am (UTC)From:He was a wild thing, giving up his usual graceful control, allowing Alistair to see him raw and shuddering and vulnerable. More than anything he wanted to Alistair to know he trusted him that much. "Love you, please."

Date: 2015-09-07 02:43 am (UTC)From:He pressed firmly enough to let the tip breach him, careful, slow. "Fuck, Zevran. You're so-- you're amazing." He sounded wrecked, his face hoarse and shaking. "Tell me if it's wrong." Without anything to ease the way other than the water they were in he didn't try for thrusting, or friction, wasn't sure he'd know exactly what to do if he did try.
But he pressed deeper, past the second knuckle and because he wasn't a fool, and had heard things particularly working with mercenaries, he crooked it, hoping hoping that he'd find that spot they talked about.

He turned his head, catching the elf's earlobe in his teeth again, breath coming harder as he settled back into rhythm. He sucked slowly off the earlobe, watching Zevran's face, his own starting to twist as he drew close again.

When Zevran had stilled he eased the hand from his ass, and stroked over his hip, as Alistair watched him, almost wary. If hope could be wary. Which, in Alistair's case... yes.

Date: 2015-09-11 03:57 am (UTC)From:His arms slid around Zevran, pulling him tight up against his chest, burrowing his face against his ear, in the damp strands of his hair. "And it works out nicely, because you are the only person in Thedas - or wherever - that I do trust."

He rubbed the heel of his hand into his chest. "I was worried I'd eaten something strange that weirdly agreed with me."
He caught the corner of Zevran's jaw with his palm, and leaned down to kiss him without reservation, ardor and tenderness in the press of his lips, the slick glide of his tongue.
