Room 322, Tuesday Afternoon

[not_every_mage]

After Bob's class, Anders hurried back to his room and was pleased to find he had it to himself. He exiled Lachlan to roam the halls -- exploration was good for cats, wasn't it? -- and then hurriedly straightened his side, which mostly entailed shoving dirty clothes under the bed and stacking his books and papers so they looked almost organized. He debated over the door for a moment, finally deciding to leave it halfway open.

And then he drew a ragged breath and flopped onto his bed, trying to look like he was perfectly calm and composed. He didn't entirely succeed. He was emotional at the best of times, and the sex pollen had him what felt like permanently off-balance. Though the promise of a visit from Nathan might help with that ... at least for a while.

Nathan didn't move away but he did stop kissing for a second because he couldn't hold back a quiet snicker.

"Are you all right?" he wondered. "Walking isn't really going well this week, is it?"

[not_every_mage]

"Not when I'm trying to do three other things at the same time it's not," Anders agreed easily enough, and sat down on the bed. "I'm fine. But maybe I should stop walking for a while just to make sure."

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh," he replied, standing over Anders so he could run both hand through his hair. "It just surprised me."

[not_every_mage]

"Hmm?" Anders said, shutting his eyes and sounding even more distracted. "Oh, don't worry. I probably would have laughed if it were you."

He all but purred as Nathan touched his hair. He hadn't taken out the bit of leather he tied it back with yet; he tried to angle his head to encourage Nathan to do that for him.

"You want me to take it down?" he guessed, working his fingers back towards the tie. "I can do that."

And he'd do it carefully, not wanting to catch hair in the tie and cause pain.

[not_every_mage]

"I like the way you do it," Anders explained, letting out a long, slow breath. He kept his head still to make things easier on Nathan. "Thank you."

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"I don't know if I could ever have my hair this long," he murmured as he took the tie out and let Anders' hair down. He sighed at the touch and let his fingers skim through it and then down to the back of his neck.

[not_every_mage]

"Sure you could," Anders said, tilting his head back to see Nathan's face. "All you have to do is not cut it for a while."

He reached out his hands, idly stroking at the sides of Nathan's hips.

"I think it'd annoy me," Nathan told him, shrugging. "It'd tickle. And if I sleep outside, it's more hair to get mud or snow or something else in. Not really conducive to moving quickly and staying clean."

[not_every_mage]

"That's why I always tie it back," Anders told him, with a little shrug -- fond as he was of his hair, the style wasn't for everyone. "Makes it much easier to deal with. Besides, sometimes somebody nice is willing to play with it and that makes up for a lot."

He was wondering if they were really going to talk about hairstyling now, but managed to be patient. It wasn't like he had anywhere else to be.

"You're just full of sweet words today," Nathan returned with a smile. He pulled his hand away from Anders' hair and gave his shoulders a little push. "Lay back."

[not_every_mage]

Anders grinned as he followed that particular order, turning to get his head on the pillow. "Do you have me where you want me now?"

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"I think so," Nathan murmured, reaching to shuck his shirt off before he joined Anders on the bed. He stayed off to one side to give himself a more comfortable angle to lean down and kiss the other boy's chest.

[not_every_mage]

Anders wriggled a bit under the kisses, reaching his hands up and toward Nathan to trace them over whatever bare skin he could reach.

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"Does that tickle?" Nathan asked, flicking his tongue out briefly, testing that out before trailing kisses down his stomach.

[not_every_mage]

"Only in the best way," Anders said, sounding spellbound. His fingers moved up to tease at Nathan's nipple. ".... do that thing with your tongue again."

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"What thing with my tongue?" And then he did it but he lingered this time and smiled against Anders' skin. "That thing?"

[not_every_mage]

"Mmmmmph." From the rock of Anders' hips at the contact, that noise was a yes. A rather enthusiastic yes. One of his hands flailed, clenched at the sheet.

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"And I'll I'm touching is your chest," Nathan noted, moving lower down to his stomach now. He flicked his tongue out again, drawing a few shapes there.

[not_every_mage]

"It's sensitive," Anders said, and it might have sounded defensive if he wasn't so breathlessly happy. "And I figured you weren't going to stop there."

His fingers twined through Nathan's hair as he spoke.

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"Well, I can if you really want me to," Nathan teased, pulling up just enough that he wasn't touching Anders but he was breathing against him.

[not_every_mage]

Anders shook his head. "You could, but please don't," he said, trying very hard not to wiggle again at the switch from tongue to breath and mostly succeeding.

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"You sure?" he asked, continuing to tease by just barely touching his tongue to Anders' skin now. "I wouldn't want to overwhelm you."

[not_every_mage]

"You're already doing that," Anders laughed between rapid breaths. His hand skimmed down over the line of Nathan's spine as best as he could. "Also, you're a fucking tease."

His use of language there possibly could have been more precise.

[halfbad.livejournal.com]

"Language," Nathan said and breathed out right near Anders' waist, smiling as he did. "Such language."

He moved his head and actually nipped Anders' hip and then licked it slowly.
