Elijah didn’t even hesitate to agree once he felt Noah pressed to his back. He also didn’t care if Noah decided not to behave. In some ways, he didn’t want him to, and in others, he was exhausted and was worried he was going to fall sound asleep. He allowed Noah to guide him to the bed. He was about to tell him he usually slept naked, but Noah pulled on the tie of the bathrobe and let it fall to the floor. He then reached down and popped the button on his pants and let those fall to the floor.

Elijah never left anything on the floor. He always had a neat and picked up room, but the small act of leaving his clothes on the floor sent a thrill through him that he couldn’t explain. He knew he should be more vested in the case, but he honestly didn’t know what else to contribute until the detectives asked for it, so it seemed like the fitting place to be right now was here in the bedroom. Whether or not he got any sleep was another question.

Elijah heard a rustle of clothing behind him, and with his eyes half closed from fatigue, he didn’t bother to turn around and look, knowing Noah was also naked but he didn’t care. His brain registered on some vague level that he didn’t think this was how one-night stands went, but he didn’t really care. He had never done the normal thing anyway.

He shivered when Noah stepped up behind him again, and he couldn’t help the swell of his arousal when he felt Noah’s dick press against his ass between them. He would have gladly bent over the bed or the couch for him, but Noah kissed his shoulders and the back of his neck softly, and let his hands run up and down his stomach and chest, all over his torso. He’d never been given a massage in such a way, and he let his head fall back on Noah’s chest as they stood there, holding each other. He wanted to turn around and feel their skin slide across one another’s as they rubbed against each other that way, but Noah began to push him gently towards the bed, and he went willingly, desperately wanting to lay down.

“Lay down on your stomach,” Noah told him, and he obliged. He felt the soft fluff of the mattress and pillows under him, and he was trying so hard to fight sleep. He felt Noah’s strong hands on his back, and he realized that battle was lost as he began to knead and rub. He hadn’t expected to receive a back rub, but the intimacy made him feel safe, like even if he decided not to go further with Noah, he would stop if he wanted him to. Elijah didn’t want him to though, he just didn’t know how to tell him that.

It was a good five minutes, or maybe ten, when Elijah continued to doze off and on, but Noah didn’t stop the massage. He was aware of his hands moving to his ass and the backs of his thighs, and he couldn’t help the reaction that followed, as he felt Noah’s fingertips brush against his sac between his legs. He felt his spine arch and his ass rise in the air, a silent plea for him to continue as he squirmed against the mattress at the discomfort of having his erection pinned between himself and the bed. He wanted to roll over, but then he felt Noah’s tongue sliding along his spine. Then he felt his lips nip on one of his ass cheeks, and he practically jumped off the bed.

“Noah!” He could feel Noah’s body bent behind him, and he tried to sit up to turn over, but Noah moved his mouth to the other cheek and nipped and kissed it. Elijah groaned into the pillow, feeling like the rest of his muscles were pudding where Noah had massaged the kinks out of them. His dick, however, was throbbing and hot, and he wanted Noah to rub that too. The thrill raced down his spine the more Noah teased him, remaining in control of the pace of what was happening. He looked back once to see Noah had his own cock in his palm, and he was gently stroking it up and down. And didn’t that just cause his balls to tighten and the tip of his own dick to throb.

Noah finally permitted him to turn over when he had bent over and darted his tongue out to lick his sack. Elijah screamed into the pillow, and he couldn’t help the reaction as he jumped up and flipped himself over on the bed. Noah was still squeezing his own erection between his palms and panting, but when Elijah tried to bend his head to replace his hand with his own mouth, Noah placed his palm on his shoulder and pushed him back into the pillows.

“I may bend the rules a bit, but I told you, I am not going to have just a one-night stand with you.”

“But—”

Noah shook his head, and Elijah didn’t protest. He wanted Noah inside him, and he was more than willing to give him that. Noah was sticking to his promise, even as he lowered his own head between Elijah’s legs and captured his dick in between his lips. The heat and the wet suction made Elijah’s head fall back on the pillows as he moaned. At least he was really willing to bend the rules and not torture them both too much. Elijah wasn’t sure which was hotter, the feel of Noah’s mouth on his dick as it slid up and down the length of him, or the fact that he was denying them both contact with himself. Elijah wanted that just as much as he wanted to come, and Noah seemed to sense this, because he purposefully kept himself just out of reach, and he made sure his dick didn’t come in contact with Elijah’s bed as he sucked him.

Elijah reached down and cupped the back of Noah’s head as he struggled to maintain control, but the more he felt the building pressure, the faster Noah sucked and licked the tip of him. It wasn’t long before his hips were thrusting up to meet Noah’s mouth, and he latched on to the tip of him as Elijah started to come.

When he was finished, he lay panting and gazing up at Noah, whose face was a grimace as he tried to maintain control of himself. He wasn’t holding his dick in his palm anymore, and Elijah took the opportunity to reach out and cup him in his hand. Noah let his head drop as he continued to groan as he stroked the soft skin up and down. He reached up with his other hand and tugged on his arm, urging him to lay down on top of him.

“I said I wasn’t going to…” But Elijah lifted his hips so his dick and Noah’s rubbed together. Noah didn’t hesitate to put both arms on either side of Elijah’s shoulders and let his lower half slide skin to skin between them. Elijah kissed his neck and nipped his earlobe as he felt the warm spurts hit his belly as Noah started to come. Noah dropped his own face into the pillow as he rocked back and forth, and Elijah held him, stroking his back until he rolled off.

He didn’t have the energy to get up and clean himself off and he let his eyes close as he rolled toward Noah and rested his head on his chest. Noah’s arms instinctively went around him as he drifted off to sleep. He wasn’t sure how long it took Noah to fall asleep, but when he woke the next morning, he was happy to find Noah still in bed with him, holding him. Elijah felt like, for the first time in a long time, he could let himself feel for another person. He had almost been afraid that if he did anything with Noah, even the teasing and petting they had done the night before, it would be enough for Noah, and he would leave to go find someone else to satisfy him. But it seemed, for now, that Noah was sticking around, because Elijah realized his hold on him was so tight, so possessive, that he couldn’t move anywhere.
