For Anatoly

[capable_of]

Another morning dawned on Tabula Rasa and Lex was stretched out beside Anatoly, debating whether or not to open his eyes and attempt to get out of bed. Instead, he just moved closer into Anatoly's arms, relishing the feel of waking up like this. He sighed softly and finally took advantage of his favorite part of the morning. A hand reached up and stroked the Russian's stubbled cheek. It was a simple pleasure but a pleasure all the same.

Before he was a woman, this had been enough. But things had changed when he'd been female, mainly, they had finally come together, wholly and completely. And now that he was male again...there was nothing. They'd gone back to how they had been before, but now Lex, well to be blunt, he missed the sex.

He knew he should bring itup, ask Anatoly about it...but for the moment, he just wanted to stroke the sleeping man's cheek and watch half-lidded as he stirred.

Time passed in a pleasant sort of haze, but eventually Anatoly shifted and broke the silence. "We should move," he murmured, lightly stroking Lex's back. "Perhaps get a shower... "

The truth was that he didn't want to move, not for anything in the world. He was content, perfectly content, and he didn't want to destroy the mood by allowing reality to intrude once more.

Lex thought for a moment, then playfully bit at the pulse point in Anatoly's neck before sitting up. With a soft groan, he un-straddled the Russian, gasping softly as his cock finally slid out of him as he settled beside him. Then he fished around on the floor until he found what he was looking for. A discarded shirt, ready for the laundry pile anyway. After a quick and dirty clean up, Lex threw it over his shoulder and pulled Anatoly down to lay beside him, wrapping his arms around his waist and pulling him close. "There...Good enough for now...Don't want to let you go for a moment."

Anatoly gasped softly at the bite, involuntarily jerking his hips forward. He let go reluctantly when Lex sat up, groaning softly at the separation. It seemed like an age until the clean up was finished and he was safely in Lex's arms.

Sleepily, he caressed Lex's cheek then leaned forward to kiss him gently. "I could stay here like this," he murmured, his eyes closing despite his best efforts. "Just with you."

Lex ran lazy fingers up Anatoly's side until they seemed to find their way back to where they had started out the morning: lightly stroking the scruff on the Russian's cheeks. "I have no classes today so unless you have somewhere to be..." He said in a light teasing voice before lightly kissing the tip of his nose. "I think that's a grand idea."

"Nowhere but with you," Anatoly murmured contentedly, shifting so he could rest his head against Lex's chest. He was rapidly losing the battle with consciousness, but he hardly minded at this point. He was pleasantly sated and in the arms of someone he'd grown to care about more than he thought was possible after all he'd gone through.

This morning had been filled with delight full surprises. Not that Lex thought Anatoly would say no to his question...he just hadn't realistically expected results so soon. And such pleasant results at that.

He laid there for a while, just looking down at the head pillowed on his rest as one hand stroked the sleeping man's cheek while the other rand idly through dark brown curls. Finally, Lex too fell victim to exhaustion and dozed off, feeling so happy and content with Anatoly that he still sometimes thought this was only a dream. The best dream he'd ever had.
