Nick chuckled softly. “You were expecting someone else?”
Gabe felt his cheeks heat with embarrassment at being caught daydreaming, again. The dream might not have been real, but its effect on Gabe’s body definitely was. His cock had hardened behind his jeans, and he was eternally thankful for the coat he held in front of him that hid the evidence of his desire.
“Sorry, I was….”
“You were daydreaming again, weren’t you?” Nick smiled and shook his head. “I love your active mind, sweetheart, but you need to be careful. You didn’t even notice me approaching. At first I thought something was wrong when you didn’t even look at me, until I recognized that faraway look you get in your eyes. I don’t know what I’d do if something happened to you. Please, for me, be careful?”
Gabe nodded. “I know. I’m sorry, Nick. I’ll be better, I promise. It’s just, you were making love to me and―well, it was you, but it wasn’t you―and we were on a ship. And―”
“So you were dreaming about making love to me? How about we make those dreams a reality?”
Gabe nodded enthusiastically. “I’ve waited so long. And you’ve waited. And I prepared myself, and―”
Nick steered Gabe toward the baggage claim area. Gabe supposed they were getting a few stares, but he couldn’t bring himself to care.
“Go back a second. You said something about preparing yourself?”
Gabe twisted his fingers together and looked at his feet. “Yeah. I… um… being my first time and all, I wanted to make sure―” He stretched up and placed his lips against Nick’s ear. “Certain things would fit.”
Nick froze and looked down at Gabe. “Are you telling me you’ve been using―”
Gabe slapped a hand over Nick’s mouth before he could say the word out loud in the middle of the baggage claim area. He nodded and watched Nick’s eyes darken with need. Nick grabbed at the last remaining suitcase circling the carousel. He grasped Gabe’s hand and pulled him toward the skywalk leading to the parking garage.
Gabe quickly walked in Nick’s wake. He managed to get his coat partway on before they made it across the glassed walkway into the late afternoon air. Gabe dug the keys to his mom’s Chevy Equinox out of his pocket and took the lead in their dash. He clicked the key fob when they neared the vehicle and the liftgate rose, beckoning them to the privacy and security of the tinted windows. Nick threw his suitcase into the cargo area and then slammed the rear door closed while Gabe made his way over to the driver’s side door. As soon as they sealed themselves into the interior, Nick practically dragged Gabe across the large center console. Gabe ended up straddling Nick’s lap.
Gabe was so hungry. He pushed into Nick’s kiss, crushing their lips together, urgent for more. Nick’s hands found their way beneath Gabe’s sweater and tweaked one of his nipples. Gabe was practically sprawled across Nick’s lap. The darkened interior of the car protected them from the elements and curious gazes of anyone passing by. Nick’s hand undid the button of Gabe’s jeans and slid the zipper down till Gabe’s briefs were exposed.
One large hand speared into Gabe’s underwear and grasped his cock. With a smothered cry Gabe arched his back and pulled away from their kiss. He buried his face in Nick’s chest as he moaned. His mind was blinded by desire, need, and the pleasure that raged through him at the possessive touch. “Nick,” Gabe groaned, rubbing his crotch into Nick’s hand. Gabe felt warm lips on his neck, a sweet little nibble to his earlobe nearly sent him flying. The hand at his crotch squeezed and kneaded and stroked; lifting his hips, Gabe forgot everything but Nick’s touch.
Nick froze. “What the―”
Gabe’s eyes flew open when he realized that Nick’s other hand had slid down the back of his jeans and encountered the plug Gabe had been using to stretch himself for his lover.
“Oh my God! All this time? You’ve been….”
Gabe moaned as the plug jostled inside him. The tip bumped his prostate, and a spurt of precum escaped from the tip of Gabe’s cock.
“Please, Nick. I need….”
“Okay, baby. I’ll take care of you, and then we’ll talk about this little surprise of yours.”
Nick’s hand manipulated the plug. He tugged the evil pleasure device out a fraction only to push it back in. His other hand wrapped around Gabe’s cock and resumed its earlier movements. Within mere minutes, Gabe was crying out, shaking and falling apart in Nick’s arms. Lights flashed behind his eyes, and Gabe’s head lolled against Nick’s shoulder. Gabe felt Nick’s hard cock pressing against his hip. He tried to move so that he could return the favor, but Nick held him immobile.
“I’ll be fine. I can wait until we get to the resort. I warn you, though, once I unleash this monster for the night, there’s no going back. I made sure that our room had a hot tub to soak in because I plan on making you walk funny by morning.”
They managed to get Gabe cleaned up with a stash of baby wipes his mom kept in the glove box. Gabe scooted over to the driver’s seat, but winced as he landed hard and the plug jostled deep inside him. Apparently post orgasmic sensitivity and hard silicone were not the most pleasant of bedfellows.
“You okay, sweetheart?”
“Yeah, just on unfamiliar ground. So where to, Jeeves?”
“Schweitzer village. I’ll tell you where we’re staying when we get there.”
Gabe bounced in his seat a little. And this time, moaned in pleasure. He’d always wanted to stay in the quaint little European-flavored ski village. It seemed like Nick really was going to make his dream come true.
Chapter 9
GABE stood beside the gas fireplace in their suite, looking at the blanket of white covering the mountain outside their window. Now that he and Nick were here, checked in and settled, Gabe realized that he was actually pretty nervous. He wasn’t worried that Nick would hurt him or anything, but what if his performance didn’t live up to Nick’s expectations? Maybe he was overthinking things. Nick and he had never had trouble with compatibility when it came to exploring the sexual side of their relationship. Then again, this was the big show, and Gabe figured he had the right to a few butterflies in his stomach.
A sound to his left made Gabe look over his shoulder, and he saw Nick come out of their bedroom, where he’d taken their suitcases. Nick walked up behind him and pulled Gabe back against his chest. Gabe closed his eyes to savor the sensation of Nick surrounding him once again. The last two weeks had been difficult. The anticipation of this time together mixed with the stress of final exams, and then nerves as Gabe watched Nick on the television half a world away. Now as he stood within the shelter of Nick’s arms, all the bad went away, and Gabe simply felt peace.
“It’s beautiful out there,” Nick said softly.
Gabe nodded, not wanting the sound of his voice to shatter the tranquility of the moment.
Nick nuzzled Gabe’s temple. “It’s beautiful in here too,” he whispered. Nick turned Gabe around, but kept him within the circle of his arms.
Nick’s head dipped and their lips met in a lingering kiss. Gabe’s arms went around Nick’s neck. Warmth from Nick’s embrace infused his body. Their mouths sipped from each other. Soft tongues slid together, welcoming each other home. Their tryst in the car had been all about blowing off the steam, but this… this was Nick and Gabe simply being together. Being them.
Nick backed off from the kiss and leaned his forehead against Gabe’s. “My sweet prince. I love you.”
Their noses slid beside each other, maintaining their connection. Gabe’s spirit soared with Nick’s admission.
“I love you too, my shining knight.” His hands buried themselves in Nick’s hair, and his body arched up against Nick’s as Gabe sealed the vow with a kiss.
They walked hand in hand into the bedroom. The double-sided fireplace emitted a warm orange glow in the darkened space. The light from the flames highlighted Nick’s sculpted features. The room was filled with the large four-poster log bed. They undressed each other slowly. Nick�
�s hands caressed Gabe’s chest. His thumbs brushed across Gabe’s nipples, and the touch caused the buds to harden.
Nick’s touch slid down the sides of Gabe’s torso and then circled around his back to grasp the globes of his ass. The large palms cupped Gabe’s cheeks, lifting their bodies together. Despite the familiarity of their naked forms rubbing together, the sensation still made Gabe moan. When the tips of Nick’s fingers tapped the plug, his moan became a cry of need. Until Gabe began using the toy to prepare himself, he’d never really indulged in ass play while getting off. He’d always craved it, but wouldn’t bring himself to cross that line for fear of giving in to his body’s demands and forgoing his desire for a special person to share in this moment.
Once he’d taken that final leap and told Nick he was ready, Gabe had practically run to the first adult shop he could find. He’d jacked off so many times the first several days of wearing the plug that he’d nearly convinced himself he would dry out into a husk of his former self. Now that the shock of the awareness had passed, Gabe craved the sensation of something filling him.
How would it feel to actually have Nick inside him? To have living flesh fill him to the brim and thrust deep to Gabe’s core. Nick turned their bodies and the backs of Gabe’s legs touched the edge of the thick mattress. Gabe sat and scooted till his head rested on the cloudlike pillows. The fire behind the glass had nothing on the flames burning in Nick’s eyes as he settled on top of Gabe, bracing his weight on one forearm while his hips rested against Gabe’s. Their cocks brushed together, and both men moaned. Nick’s tongue licked at Gabe’s lips before sliding between them. The fingers of his free hand caressed Gabe’s hip and then slid up Gabe’s body to tease the hard nipple.
They’d lain together like this before when rubbing off, but tonight was different. Tonight it was as if the very air around them went silent with the reverence of the moment. Gabe craved Nick’s kisses, being pinned beneath Nick’s weight.
Gabe arched back into the pillow as Nick rained tiny kisses down his throat. Nick’s mouth ghosted over Gabe’s collarbone and then slid lower to torment Gabe’s nipples. Gabe’s breath stuttered in his chest for a moment. Every pant of air against his chest felt as if hot desert air blew across his skin.
“Yes,” Gabe sighed.
Nick moved lower and nuzzled against the flat plane of Gabe’s stomach. He bypassed Gabe’s cock even as the hard column danced, reaching for Nick’s attention. Nick’s hands smoothed along the inside of Gabe’s thighs, spreading them wide and pushing them up with his palms. Nick laved Gabe’s balls and the patch of skin beneath the orbs.
Gabe keened and clutched his knees, holding himself open, begging for more of Nick’s touches. The finger of one of Nick’s hands traced the skin around the base of the plug, while the other hand encircled Gabe’s cock.
“God yes. Yes,” Gabe pleaded.
Nick grasped the edge of the plug held securely within Gabe’s body. He pulled gently, but Gabe’s body didn’t want to let the toy go. Nick tried again and the plug shifted inside Gabe, causing him to moan.
Nick shifted the plug again while stroking Gabe’s cock. “That’s it, sweetheart. God, you’re beautiful like this. I can’t believe you did this for us. So sexy to see your need for me this way.”
Nick slowly freed the plug from Gabe’s body. The ring of Gabe’s hole stretched as the wide base backed out. When the toy left Gabe’s body he felt an emptiness that hungered for some other form of possession.
Gabe opened his eyes and found Nick staring at the entrance to his body. His face was tight with lust. The hand on Gabe’s cock fell away, and he wanted to beg for its return until Nick’s head dipped and warm wet heat glided around Gabe’s hole. Nick’s tongue snaked inside the stretched opening and licked. The slick appendage laved Gabe from balls to hole. Gabe inhaled and exhaled slowly, savoring every touch and craving the next.
“Hand me the lube under the pillow, sweetheart.”
Gabe blinked for a second and tried to process the meaning behind Nick’s words. His brain had difficulty following conscious thought. He slid his hand up beneath the pillow underneath his head, but didn’t feel anything other than soft sheets. Gabe tried the other one, and almost cheered when he encountered the plastic bottle. Gabe retrieved the prize and then held it out for Nick.
He heard the snap of the cap, and a moment later slick two fingers slid across the patch of skin beneath Gabe’s balls and inside his opening. It was the first time he’d experienced the touch of human skin inside him, other than when he’d prepared himself. He threw his head back, and a guttural cry escaped this throat. It was so much and yet not enough. The fingers didn’t fill him the way he’d come to crave. He was about to beg Nick for his cock when those talented digits twisted deep inside, nailing Gabe’s gland.
“Oh, Jesus, yes.” Gabe bore down on Nick’s hand, demanding more of the ecstasy-inspiring touch.
Nick’s fingers slicked up Gabe’s channel and then withdrew, once again leaving Gabe empty and aching. Gabe opened his eyes a fraction and watched Nick slick up his cock. There was no need for condoms. They were constantly tested for everything under the sun as part of the competitions, and each had been faithful from the moment they decided to enter a relationship. Gabe trusted Nick and he knew that trust was returned.
Nick rose up between Gabe’s legs till they were face to face. Gabe arched his hips till he felt the head of Nick’s cock settle against his prepared opening. They took a moment to stare at each other in silence. Their eyes stayed on each other as Nick slowly pushed inward. Despite the use of the plug there was still some pressure as Nick’s cock breached Gabe’s body. The ring gave way and the head popped through. The bite of pain stole Gabe’s breath and Nick’s nostrils flared. Pressure built inside him as Nick slowly eased his way in deeper.
“Relax, sweetheart.”
Gabe concentrated on releasing the tension in his body. He couldn’t believe that Nick was finally inside him. It hurt. It hurt more than Gabe had anticipated. Nick’s features were taut with concentration as he filled Gabe one inch at a time. Nick was so much bigger than the toy that it felt as though his possession would never cease.
“Nick,” Gabe panted. “So big, so much.”
Nick moaned. “So tight, so hot.”
With one last surge, Nick slid the remaining inches inside Gabe. Intense pleasure gripped Gabe, mingling with the last vestiges of pain. Nick held himself still for several moments. Beads of sweat dripped down his temples, and Gabe ran his hands over the tight muscles bunched beneath the smooth skin of Nick’s back. Nick circled his hips as Gabe’s muscles relinquished their viselike hold on the cock filling him.
“Tell me when, sweetheart.”
Gabe knew Nick’s effort not to start slamming inside him was a testament to his love. “Ready. Please. I’m yours.”
“Mine,” Nick whispered.
Nick withdrew a little. The drag of his cock sliding through Gabe’s tissues as he left Gabe’s body almost made him cry out in denial until Nick thrust back inside, and a wave of pleasure crashed over Gabe. Nick had managed to find the right angle for the head of his cock to brush against Gabe’s prostate with the first thrust, and Gabe cried out as bolts of lightning traveled up his spine.
“There! Oh God, Nick. There, please there.”
“You feel so amazing around my cock. Better than I ever imagined it could be.”
Nick moved in and out. Over and over. Again and again at a languorous tempo. Gabe arched up into each thrust as those wonderful waves of pleasure ebbed and flowed over his body. Nick moaned above him, and Gabe’s heart filled at the sound of his lover’s pleasure.
Nick’s tempo increased until the bed rocked beneath them. His lean hips snapped, and Nick’s cock pushed Gabe closer to the edge with every thrust. Gabe gave up the fight to keep his eyes open and gave himself over to Nick’s possession. His lungs burned as though he’d swam the length of the pool underwater. The heat of his body was greater than e
ven the coolest water could quench. Every pump of Nick’s hips filled the cells of Gabe’s being with love and pleasure.
Gabe’s cock bounced against the flat of his stomach, leaving silky kisses of fluid on the smooth skin. He reached for the throbbing organ, desperate for something to ease the ache. Nick kept reciting Gabe’s name over and over as their bodies came together. Gabe stroked his cock in rhythm to Nick’s thrusts. The fingers of his other hand dug into the wide muscled shoulders of his lover. His balls drew up; his body tightened as if it were a longbow and Nick had drawn the string. His ass clamped down and starbursts exploded behind his eyes. Unbridled ecstasy raced through Gabe’s bloodstream to every organ and beyond, electrifying the smallest capillaries in the furthest tip of his toes.
He came so hard his balls ached, and the air rushed from his lungs. The contracted muscles of his body quivered as nerve synapses exploded throughout his body. The climax lasted forever as Nick continued to fuck him, driving that beautiful cock across his prostate over and over until Nick stilled deep inside Gabe, shouted out his name, and a blast of heat filled Gabe to his very soul.
GABE stood at the top of the ski run, looking out over the vista of his home state. He closed his eyes and inhaled the fresh scent of evergreens, mountain air, and snow. He loved San Francisco, but Dorothy definitely had the right idea when she clicked those ruby slippers together.
The snow-covered slope glimmered under the sunshine, and Gabe watched as starbursts reflected off the powdery surface. Hilltops and valleys undulated as far as the eye could see. Dark green of the trees mixed with fresh snowfall from the night before. Off in the distance lay Lake Pend Oreille. The placid body of water was deceptive in its tranquility. Reaching depths of nearly twelve hundred feet in some places and stretching sixty-five miles to the south, it could easily kill an uneducated, recreational outdoorsman.
“You know, I’ve seen a lot of places since I started traveling with the national team, but this is stunning. Thank you for bringing me here.”
