"Kurama?"
"H-hai?"
"How do you....how do you do that?" Hiei blushed.
Kurama was lightly panting as he swallowed hard, then took a deep breath. His eyes were closed and he was smiling, perspiration trickling down the sides of his forehead as he lay spread-eagle on the futon. He had just experienced one of the most intensely satisfying orgasms and was trying to make the feeling last a little longer. Hiei, who was lying on his side with his arm under his head for support, was studying his lover's face.
"How do you...come...like that?" the Koorime whispered, reaching over and brushing a few unruly strands of crimson silk away from the satisfied kitsune's brow.
Kurama inhaled slowly through his nostrils and turned his head to look at his curious fire demon. He frowned as he exhaled, Hiei feeling his warm sweet breath float across his chest as Kurama rolled over and snuggled against him. They were both warm and wet from their lovemaking, and Kurama loved the feel of Hiei's body, especially after a particularly passionate session. Kurama kissed Hiei's chest and looked up at his face.
"What do you mean?"
"Well," Hiei began, gently stroking the back of Kurama's head, stopping every once in a while to twirl a few strands between his fingers. Kurama's fiery mane always fascinated the Koorime, the human's hair being so different from his own. "You seemed to be...so...into it, it's almost like you went someplace..."
"I did."
"Hn?" Hiei looked down at his lover's face. Kurama's emerald orbs were gleaming as he looked back with half-lidded eyes.
"I do go someplace. Someplace wonderful..." he exaggerated the last word with a contented sigh as he snuggled in closer so he could hear Hiei's heartbeat.
"What kinda place is it?" Hiei asked softly, trying to imagine what his fox was talking about.
"It's a place I go to sometimes when we're making love, and it's so good, and it feels so nice...." Kurama's voice drifted dreamily off. He gave Hiei a squeeze around the waist and continued. "It's like this place where I feel safe, and warm, and relaxed..." then looking up at Hiei "and you're there, too." He leaned forward and kissed Hiei on the lips and sighed again, feeling himself melt into their embrace. "You're always waiting for me there. And when I come, I feel you hold me in your arms, and I know that you love me."
Hiei looked puzzled. "That doesn't, like, happen every time, though."
"No," Kurama replied, his fingers brushing Hiei's cheek. "Sometimes I just like to fuck you for the fun of it," he said with a wicked grin. "Sometimes I just let my body lead me." He repositioned himself so he was more at eye level with his lover. "And I just enjoy the ride. But other times....like just now....I let myself go to that incredible place where every part of me is feeling you, inside me, on me....Like tonight. I wanted to make love to you right after we came back from our walk. The stars were shining and....you let me hold your hand." Kurama's eyes twinkled as he smiled. "When you do these little things that tell me you love me...that's when I want you so much. I knew I was gonna go to that place." Kurama slid over so his body was lying on top of Hiei's, his chin resting on his hands that were on his lover's chest. "I feel so free when I go there," he continued. "There aren't any boundaries. It's like I don't realize there's anyone else in the entire worlds but you and me and how you're making me feel. It's not like you do something different than what you usually do, either. I love everything you do, koibito. It's how I feel as you're doing it. I've never felt this way about any other lover I've ever had." He gently stroked Hiei's shoulder he looked deeply into those ruby eyes that seemed so full of questions. "I remember the first time I went there. We had just made love for the first time in the Makai and you wondered why I was crying. Do you remember, koibito?"
Hiei nodded as his fingertips lightly brushed some hair away from Kurama's face.
"You asked me if you had hurt me, and I said no," Kurama whispered. "But I couldn't tell you then that I had felt like this. I was afraid I'd scare you away."
"Hn," Hiei chuckled, letting one side of his mouth rise up into a slight smile.
"I couldn't tell you then how much I needed to feel like that with you. We had only been sleeping together for a few weeks, but I knew long before then that I could feel like that." Kurama suddenly looked concerned. "Does it bother you?"
"Hell no," Hiei answered immediately. "It's really...very sexy."
Now it was Kurama's turn to study his partner's face. After a long moment, Kurama asked softly, "what are you trying to ask me, Hiei?"
Hiei blushed as he looked down at Kurama's throat, shoulders, anywhere but in his eyes. The Koorime's lips moved as he tried to form the words he had trouble getting out. Finally, he just blurted out what he wanted to say.
"I never fucked anybody before I met you. And, well, I know that I enjoy what we do, and like, I know I come and everything. And I really love it, and it feels great, but it's...it's just that...well...I've never...at least I don't think I've ever...been....to that place...."
Kurama smiled.
Hiei dared to glance back up. "What are you grinnin' at, fox?"
"Hiei," Kurama whispered, pulling his lover closer, letting their mouths brush against each other. "Just ask me..."
Hiei swallowed hard as he stared into the fathomless pools of green.
"Would you..." Hiei paused. "Would you take me there?" his voice cracked.
"Are you sure you're ready to go?" Kurama asked, rolling on top of the fire demon. "Are you sure you can let yourself go? Are you ready to let yourself be that free....with me?" Kurama's eyes were full of hope and excitement. And quite a bit of lust.
"Hai. As long as you promise you'll be there, waiting for me."
Kurama smiled as he gently kissed Hiei first on the mouth, letting their lips softly touch. He kissed his lover's cheek, then brushed it with his eyelashes, giving him a butterfly kiss.
"Close your eyes and relax, koibito. Let me take you there."
Hiei looked once more into Kurama's eyes for assurance, and when he saw trust, and love, and want, he let himself close his eyes and relax.
Kurama began by lightly kissing Hiei's starburst of white-tipped hair on his forehead. He knew he would have to go slowly in order to let his fire demon experience all the pleasure he wanted him to enjoy. He supported himself on his hands as he leaned forward and began nuzzling Hiei's right ear. Hiei shivered as Kurama's tongue tickled the folds of his ear. He heard his lover sigh as his mouth took hold of the lobe and gently sucked. Kurama never tired of the flavor of Hiei's skin and knew he would enjoy this journey as much as his lover would.
Kurama rolled onto his side, and began to lick his way slowly down Hiei's neck, stopping at the juncture of his shoulder. He kissed and licked Hiei's jugular vein and nibbled a little, causing another round of shivers. Kurama let his hands wander over Hiei's chest, his fingers lightly brushing against the hardening nipples. Hiei's head fell back deeper into the pillow as Kurama moved back over his body, letting their genitals brush against each other. Kurama moaned himself at this wonderfully erotic sensation. He moved his body lower down, capturing Hiei's right nipple between his lips and began alternately sucking and licking the hard pink flesh. He took his hand and cupped the pectoral muscle as he nibbled all around the raised nipple. He felt Hiei's goosebumps rise as he kissed his way over to Hiei's left nipple. Hiei's breathing was beginning to get a little ragged at this intense onslaught, but he kept his eyes closed in an effort to control himself and better experience all that his fox was doing to him.
"Roll over, koibito," Kurama whispered, kissing his way back up Hiei's chest and throat, breathing softly in his ear. Hiei's eyes opened halfway as he lifted his head to kiss Kurama on the nose. He closed his eyes again and rolled over onto his stomach. Kurama gently moved Hiei's arms over his head so his body was prone, with his face to one side. The kitsune straddled the Koorime's legs as he began to massage Hiei's shoulders, squeezing the tense muscles and releasing all the tension. Hiei couldn't help but sigh deeply at this very relaxing kneading of flesh and moaned his enjoyment with a smile. Kurama leaned forward and let his crimson mane tease Hiei's shoulder blades, letting his own hardening shaft rub up and down the crack of Hiei's buttocks. He kissed the back of Hiei's neck, letting his tongue and mouth bring a new round of shivers to the stimulated fire demon. Hiei lifted his head slightly off the pillow in an effort to get closer to his fox's mouth. Kurama gently sucked the skin, leaving small red marks that would fade by dawn. He felt Hiei's body begin to relax as he continued to kiss the back of his neck.
"C'mere," Kurama said softly, lifting himself off of Hiei's legs, gently pulling on Hiei's shoulder, wanting him to return to his back. Hiei rolled back over, never opening his eyes.
The kitsune moaned as he returned to kiss Hiei's mouth passionately, his tongue slipping into the fire demon's mouth, exploring. Hiei deepened the kiss with his own sigh of pleasure as he brought his hands up to hold the back of Kurama's head. After breaking the delightfully long kiss, Kurama continued by kissing and licking Hiei's chin, neck, going farther down the center of his chest. Hiei's hands were still tangled in Kurama's mane as the fox took Hiei's arms and laid them out to the sides.
"Let me do it," Kurama whispered hoarsely as his fingers intertwined with Hiei's. Hiei obeyed and let his arms stay away from his body. "Let me love you."
Kurama traveled farther down his body, teasing Hiei's bellybutton with juicy licks and kisses. The kitsune's hands were massaging Hiei's chest and tummy as Kurama stopped at the dark nest of curls that crowned his erect shaft. Kurama nuzzled the soft hair, inhaling the defining musky scent that was Hiei with a smile. He rested his head on Hiei's hip as he began to gently stroke Hiei's penis. He moved his cheek closer and lovingly rubbed his face against the shaft, blowing warm breath across the head. Hiei shuddered and moaned, grabbing a fistful of sheet on the futon. Kurama looked up at his lover's face and smiled again. Almost there.
Hiei's mind flashed into a multitude of brilliant lights as Kurama's mouth engulfed him. Hiei felt himself floating someplace he didn't recognize as his lover sucked and licked, taking him deeper into his mouth. Kurama's hands traveled up to Hiei's chest and he played with his nipples, all the while swirling his tongue around the tip of Hiei's arousal. Hiei's hips began to rise in time with Kurama's movements up and down his shaft. Kurama nibbled on the corona and glans, letting his tongue dance over the tip of Hiei's penis, then he would take him back into his mouth. Kurama glanced back up at Hiei and saw his lover start to frown.
"Let yourself go, Hiei," Kurama whispered. "Let yourself go."
Kurama brought his hands under his lover's backside and grasped the soft flesh, pressing Hiei's body closer to his hungry mouth. Hiei was shivering and panting, sweat running down the sides of his body as he felt his climax draw near. The fox was relentless in his passion as he brought one hand around to knead the downy covered testicles. He felt them rise closer to Hiei's body and knew it was time. He grasped Hiei's erection and began to suck hard.
Hiei arched his back as he cried out his lover's name, feeling himself explode into Kurama's mouth. Kurama continued to suck as he drank down his lover's semen, feeling some of it trickle down his chin.
Hiei found himself in a place filled with sensations and emotions. He felt as though he was floating in a sea of warmth and security. It was the most wonderful feeling he had ever felt. And then he felt warm, soft hands embracing him. No one judged him, no one abandoned him, no one hurt him there. When he dared to open his eyes he saw Kurama, smiling, waiting for him. And Kurama's form would shift back and forth between the fox and the human; both together as one. Hiei let himself be totally loved.
Hiei opened his eyes with a gasp. He began panting as he blinked in astonishment at the overwhelming experience he just had. He looked down to see Kurama smiling up at him, the fox resting his hands on Hiei's tummy, leaning his chin on them. Kurama's eyes were shining.
Then the most amazing thing happened.
Hiei began to cry.
It started as a soft whimper as he leaned his head back down onto the pillow and closed his eyes tightly. He felt his entire body begin to tremble as he bit his lip in an effort to stop the tears. But it didn't work. He felt himself take huge gasps of air as a tear escaped each eye and rolled down the sides of his face, coalescing into tear gems on the pillow. But he also felt himself start to smile.
Kurama wriggled his way back up his lover's body, his own face full of emotion, as he gently wiped away a tear from Hiei's cheek. He leaned forward and kissed the damp tracks. He slipped the tear gems under the pillow for safe keeping. Kurama's own eyes were filled with tears as he managed to find his voice.
"I guess you got there, ne?" he sniffled, and he tenderly caressed his lover's face.
"Hai," Hiei sighed deeply, his voice ragged. "Hai." Then, looking lovingly into his fox's damp eyes, he smiled broadly. "And you were there. Both of you. I had no idea I could feel this way, kitsune," Hiei whispered, no longer afraid to gaze into his lover's face. "Arigatou." He felt his body calming down and returning to normal.
"Pretty cool place, ne?" Kurama chuckled, letting out a contented sigh. He lay on his back, side by side with his lover as they laced fingers, both staring up at the ceiling. They then turned and stared at each other and began to giggle. Hiei rolled over onto Kurama, pinning his lover in a gentle hold. Hiei studied his fox's face and brushed his lips against his smiling lover's mouth.
"Arigatou," he mouthed silently.
"Anytime," Kurama mouthed back. "Ai shiteru, koibito."
Hiei lowered himself onto his lover's body and felt himself completely relax as slender arms wrapped themselves around him.
"Ai shiteru, fox," Hiei whispered as he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep, safe and secure in his lover's arms.
The End
