Tomorrow

Chapter 4

The days had passed slowly for Obi-Wan, who was bored as he paced in the bedroom he now shared with Xanatos. The nights had become a tangled confusion of passion and need, of fire that blazed higher every time Xan touched him.

This evening Xan had a meeting and told Obi-Wan he would be running late. The young man lay back on the bed as he considered what the past twelve days had been like. The collar seemed almost natural around his neck now, though the thought of it still chafed.

What bothered Obi-Wan the most was the way he… Dare he admit it? He yearned for Xan’s touch now. He wanted to feel Xan’s tongue gently seek entrance to his mouth, to feel the thrusting domination of his cock. He even wanted the soft sound of Xan’s voice whispering of his devotion in his ear.

With a groan, Obi-Wan rolled over and decided to sleep, hoping that Xan would not invade his dreams as he had invaded his mind…and perhaps his heart as well.

*************************************

Xan had expected that Obi-Wan was in bed when he entered their room. His last meeting had gone on longer than expected and so it was no surprise to see Obi-Wan sprawled out on the bed, sound asleep.

His cream colored flesh seemed radiant against the crimson coverlet. Clad only in a pair of sleep shorts and lying on his stomach, the perfect, masculine lines of Obi-Wan’s back presented a visual feast to Xanatos’ hungry eyes.

How long had he yearned to see just this sight?

It seemed forever that the hunger for Obi-Wan had seeped into his very soul, but Xan knew he could pin-point the moment precisely when the need for the Jedi had been triggered. It had been almost a year ago.

Xan had been conducting a business deal on the planet of Ylis 8. The natives of that planet, though humanoid, were somewhat smaller in stature than the average human. So Qui-Gon Jinn had been conspicuous.

Xan had quickly withdrawn into the shadows of an alley, drawing his cloak up and checking his mental shields. He was always very careful not to broadcast his Force signature; one never knew if a Jedi might be about. They had a nasty habit of showing up where least expected.

He had looked at Qui-Gon once and then his eyes slid of their own volition to the bright Force presence at his side. Obi-Wan had been laughing at something Qui-Gon had said, and the sound of it washed over Xanatos like the warmth of a tropical waterfall. Instantly, he had hardened and every cell of his body had cried out for Obi-Wan.

By the Force! He had grown up into something rare – and precious.

Unconsciously, Xan’s hand had reached out, itching to touch that silken flesh. His blood had thundered in his ears and his heart felt as if it would beat out of his chest.

And just like that, for the first time in his life, Xanatos de Crion had fallen in love.

Now the object of his desire and affection lay vulnerable on his bed. Shedding his clothes hastily as he approached the bed, Xanatos hesitated at the edge, simply drinking in the beauty of the one he loved.

Obi-Wan’s lips were slightly parted and his braid rested on one cheek. One foot hung off the bed and the toes twitched slightly. Almost as if he sensed Xan’s presence, Obi-Wan frowned. But he did not waken.

Xan carefully climbed on the bed and was soon curled around Obi-Wan’s warm, relaxed body. This was one of his favorite times of the day, when Obi-Wan slept and he could simply hold him. But, as always happened, his body reacted to the Jedi’s close proximity. Unable to help himself, Xan stroked his hands down Obi-Wan’s back to the taut buttocks that flexed beneath his touch.

Obi-Wan’s eyes came up slowly and he merely stared sleepily at Xanatos. The fallen Jedi groaned at this lack of protest and moved in for a kiss. The boy’s lips were plaint beneath his, soft and giving. Obi-Wan was strangely docile as Xan gathered him into his arms and rolled them together so that he came to rest on top of Obi-Wan.

Xan caught Obi-Wan’s gaze on his lips and the older man gave a soft chuckle before kissing Obi-Wan once more. Xan thrust his hips subtly against his lover’s and shuddered when there was a hesitant answering movement from the young man beneath him.

Murmuring softly, Xan moved Obi-Wan’s thighs apart and settled himself in the cradle of the younger man’s hips. Xan’s hand lightly skimmed Obi-Wan’s rapidly hardening cock and then cupped his balls. This time it was Obi-Wan who groaned and thrust up into that tender touch.

Xan trailed his hand down, finding the crevice that made his senses reel. He inserted one finger into Obi-Wan’s body and almost bit through his lips when he felt the muscles there relax instantly. Kissing Obi-Wan, Xan placed the weeping head of his cock against Obi-Wan’s entrance. With short, insistent pushes, he worked his cock into Obi-Wan’s body, using the Force to ease the way.

At last, completely sheathed in the hot, welcoming flesh of his lover, Xan began making long, slow strokes that drew a sigh and a shudder from Obi-Wan. Their previous couplings had been almost desperate, a frenzied meeting of flesh against flesh, but this one was infinitely tender and sweet. Soft kisses and caresses, low murmuring words of encouragement and need, all while Xan stroked slowly in and out. Obi-Wan wrapped his legs around Xan’s waist, urging him on even as his hands ran up and down Xan’s sides, exploring the swells and dips of the older man’s body.

Obi-Wan hissed in Xan's ear, "Yes, harder..."

And with a shout, Xan did his best to comply, but still making his strokes slow. Deeper, deeper and still Obi-Wan arched against him, urging him deeper still.

Finally, Obi-Wan gave a gasp and his eyes closed as he threw his head back. Xan felt the rush of hot seed between their bellies. The rapturous look of Obi’s completion and the tightened grip of his body around Xan’s cock dragged the older man over the edge as well. With a grunt, he emptied himself into his lover and then collapsed on top of him.

Both men were nearly asleep when Obi-Wan’s arms came up and wrapped around Xan’s sweaty body. With a final sigh of contentment, Xan fell asleep in Obi-Wan’s embrace.
