Room 614, the Arms Hotel, Sunday morning

[momslilassassin]

It was positively decadent, sleeping on a soft mattress without worrying about mosquitoes, bickering teenagers, annoying co-workers, or potential planetary eradication...

So Ben was sleeping in today. Mmmm. Sleep.

[OOC: For Ender!]

Comments

[endsthegame]

Ender would've considered a smart-ass remark if both his mind and his mouth weren't otherwise occupied right now.

Very occupied.

He slid his mouth all the way down like he'd wanted to, then set a quick rhythm. No frills. Just this.

[momslilassassin]

And Ben had lost all control over what his mouth was doing right now, babbling an incoherent stream of consciousness about all of the things he'd do to Ender (after a nap because they weren't 20 any more) along with how kriffing good this felt right now.

He wouldn't last long at all and was reduced to counting imperfections in the ceiling to make this last longer than the first few motions of Ender's mouth.

[endsthegame]

Oh, Ben.

Ender slid one hand between Ben's legs, running his fingers over places as he pulled his mouth up just a little and swallowed.

Just let go.

(And he'd file that stream of words away for later. Mmm.)

[momslilassassin]

Ben's eyes rolled back and he let go with a low, broken cry.

Kuso.

[endsthegame]

Ender rode it out where he was, his fingers smoothing gently over Ben's stomach.

[momslilassassin]

Ben was pretty sure he blacked out there for a second. "Kriff."

[endsthegame]

Ender pulled away and decided to swallow, for expediency's sake. He just wanted to wallow right now.

He slid up Ben's body and pressed his face into Ben's neck.

[momslilassassin]

"Love you so much it's sickening," Ben whispered, clinging tightly.

[endsthegame]

"I'm more than happy to be sickened by you into perpetuity," Ender sighed.

He wasn't fully there yet, either.

[momslilassassin]

"Good," Ben said, kissing him. "Not lettin' go."

[endsthegame]

Ender kissed him back, sliding his arm around Ben's waist. "Don't have to."

[momslilassassin]

"Hasn't gotten old yet," Ben murmured.

[endsthegame]

Ender smiled. "Well," he said, "We'll check again in another thirty years..."

[momslilassassin]

"And if we're still alive, I'll still love you," Ben said.

[endsthegame]

"Planning to check out on me so early, Skywalker?" Ender teased, kissing him again. "Because I won't let you."

[momslilassassin]

"Good," Ben said, closing his eyes and leaning in. "I'm just all out of brilliant plans for not exploding at the moment..."

[endsthegame]

"We don't even know if Starways Congress will genuinely execute the order," Ender said softly. "And we have Jane on our side, and a generation of scientists and quick thinkers growing up around us."

He kissed Ben again. "Don't despair, love. Languish a little."

[momslilassassin]

Ben kissed him back. "Sorry," he murmured. "Get morbid when my brain finally shuts up."

[endsthegame]

"Of all the tics you had to pick up from me," Ender faux-complained.

The truth was that when Ben worried, he could at least do something about that, which gave him a sense of control. That kept him calm.

[momslilassassin]

Ben snuggled in tighter. "Well, it's that or coming up with creative ways to make the Ribeira kids shut up.."

[endsthegame]

"Those kids are going to save your bacon some day," Ender murmured.

[momslilassassin]

Ben sighed. "I know," he all but whined, "but do they have to be so obnoxious when they do it?"

[endsthegame]

"They're teenagers and early twenty-somethings," Ender said. "Of course they do."

[momslilassassin]

"Kol on his worst day can't muster up half of that sort of obnoxiousness," Ben said into Ender's neck.

[endsthegame]

"I've heard you say otherwise," Ender teased. He pressed kisses along Ben's cheek.
