Ask Can You Feel The Love Tonight

[Ezra Thorne]

Dash’s silent query was answered from the way Ezra stared at him, completely transfixed by the display. He followed every sway of the hip, the meticulously slow unbuttoning and that teasing glimpse at his carefully selected underwear. Any train of thought came crashing as Dash strutted over as if he were walking for one of Billie Bonheur’s fashion premiers. Heat rushed throughout his entire body when his boyfriend grabbed his shoulders and gyrated to the beat. Ezra’s gaze lowered hungrily to drink in his man’s perfect chest, abs, hip bones and.. His chin was tilted up by Dash, his face slightly flushed and his ears bright red.

His brain turned to further mush as Dash turned around and continued the dance as he took his pants off. Dash would hear the sharp intake of breath as he lowered the pants and revealed his perfect rear barely contained in the flimsy undergarment. Ezra moved to touch him, wanting nothing more than to grasp him and taste him, but he stuck to the unspoken rules of a strip tease and kept his hands firmly to himself.

Ezra’s pants felt uncomfortably tight as Dash broke away to finish the dance. Dash had him hooked through the finale, left in nothing but the tie as a nod to the song. Ezra was stuck sitting stunned in silence, standing comically at attention, and trying to get his brain to start working again.

He wanted nothing more than to have Dash right then and there, desire surging through him. However, he also wanted to take his time with his boyfriend. They always had to make do with stolen moments or rushing through whenever Leon wasn’t around. They had uninterrupted time together and he would make the most of it.

Ezra stripped down without fanfare, also down to nothing but a tie. He glanced down at himself, grinned, and then shrugged at Dash as if to say, ‘Well, you did this’.

He grabbed Dash by the tie around his neck, playfully tugging him out towards the pool. The air was slightly cool, but the pool was heated since Ezra Thorne despised the cold. Without warning he reached down and abruptly scooped Dash up in his arms, holding him bridal style briefly before he fell backwards into the pool to take them both down.

When they came up again, Ezra nudged Dash back against the edge of the infinity pool overlooking the oceans. The stars were bright above them, and there was no sound but the gentle swell of waves. He gazed at his boyfriend, his arms on the edge of the pool on both sides of him. Their bodies were close together, but Ezra’s eyes remained locked with Dash’s.

He had desire coursing through him, and Dash’s tease was very fresh on his mind. But as he gazed at him, heard the ocean, thought about their evening, he felt a rush of emotions as well. Emotions didn’t come easy for him, but somehow Dash had managed to chip away at that block of ice. Ezra smiled at his boyfriend, an almost shy smile on his face, “I’m…so thankful I got lost on Kashyyyk that day,” His gaze lowered, his ears once again red and this time for very different reasons. Ezra didn't say things like this and he was jumping over several hurdles as he worked out the words, “You mean everything to me, baby.”

Dash felt a little exposed, standing there in nothing but a tie and the final pose of his performance. But Ez did not leave him hanging.

His boyfriend whipped what remained of his own clothes off in no time, but the speed did not make it any less enjoyable for Dash. Ezra had come a long way from the scrawny beanpole of the early days, with his fitness regime and Jedi training translating into an athletically muscled frame he had grown into in more ways than one. He would have won any wrestle without the Force hands down and even with it, there was a raw power and energy in Ezra that Dash had seen at work. They were equals in so many ways.

A tingle raced up Dash's spine as his boyfriend drew close, those silver eyes already flashing with some new plot, Dash just knew it. Ez pulled on his tie and led him out onto the terrace. Being pulled along by his tie, the two of them butt naked and barely restraining their basic urges had to be one of the most erotic moments of Dash's life. When Ez scooped him up off his feet like a dainty bride, it was the icing on an already delicious cake.

They fell in to the pool together and came up like two water spirits bound together by nature. Dash almost could not bear for them to be separated for an instant as they drifted toward the edge of the pool, holding Ez close and getting lost in the magic of his touch.

Dash knew either one of them could have jumped on the other then and there, but they more often had the time for that than this. Just being. With no thought of what next or when it might need to end. Strangely, Ez looked like he might agree, an uncharacteristic shy smile on his little face.

"It's mad" Dash replied "given everything that happened, but I am too". He thought about Kashyyyk more than he cared to admit. "You were a dick to me from the beginning, and I was the same to you. But I think we both knew on some level we could not put each other down".

He reached up and straightened Ezra's wet fringe, stroking his cheek on the way back down. "and you're my world too baby, but thanks for saying it. I know you don't find it easy". He nearly reached for the quarter-Sephi's ear, but he did not want to push him overboard just yet. "You can tell me anything you know Ez, anything, and however it comes out. You always let me be me and I will always love you for you". Dash knew the real Ezra and wanted his boyfriend to know it.

"You're a good person Ez, the best". It sounded like a platitude or maybe the wine talking, but Ezra put up so many defences Dash did not think were necessary. "and you look like a dream even when you're wet" he added, playing with the floating fabric of their ties "Though I am sorry about the tie. I bet yours was limited edition"

[Ezra Thorne]

Ezra laughed quietly at the memory of how they had been when they met. In truth, Ezra was still no different with strangers. He kept his icy edge at all times, but for all the ways Dash was the king of ice, he managed to melt through several layers of it to get to Ezra. The Thorne's hair was matted to his face, drops of water trailing from his broad shoulders towards the newly defined chest underneath. He savored Dash’s touch and his ears almost reflexively twitched as they expected a brush, but his boyfriend stopped short of it.

He didn’t say anything when Dash spoke of Ezra telling him everything. Could he? Was he a good person? Ezra thought immediately back to the times he saw the cold, red visor or when he woke up suddenly dreaming about his own eyes becoming yellow. Did Dash tell him everything? Ezra knew Dash was spending a lot of time with that Holocron and it still left him feeling uneasy. But he knew broaching those topics now would ruin the moment, and he wasn’t prepared for that just yet.

“It’s limited edition, but you wear it better,” Ezra admitted with a smile as he glanced down at the tie on Dash. There was something irresistible about that look that made it tougher to reel himself in , “Come on, you didn’t come all this way to just look at me,” He spun Dash around so he could gaze out towards the skies and the ocean. While Ezra could stand on this end of the pool, Dash would likely need to rest his arms on the edge and float. The part Sephi leaned in to hold him tightly from behind, resting his chin against Dash’s shoulder as he gazed out towards the moon that hung low over the waves, “So Mr. performing arts,” He said with a grin as he planted feathery soft kisses along Dash’s damp shoulder, his breath hot against the cool skin, “Do I get to request to have you sing for me?” He asked.

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

Dash could tell Ez was unconvinced about just how amazing he was, the Thorne was more modest than everyone else thought. He did not say a thing about any of the mushy stuff, only quipping about the tie. "Oh do I?" Dash smiled, feigning a blush and trying in vain to straighten the tie in the water "I guess I better keep it then". It would not be the first thing he had 'borrowed' from Ezra's extensive wardrobe, nor would it be the last.

He let his boyfriend spin him around, even if he would have happily gazed at him all night. The endless ocean stretching out to the horizon only added to the serenity of the evening. It made Dash feel like they really were a thousand miles from everything, untouchable by events or even time itself. Maybe the sun would never come up and they would never have to be separated again. Ezra leaned in, softly kissing his shoulder. It made Dash's heart flutter a little higher.

When his boyfriend asked him to sing, he almost said no out of hand. The Rhinnalian was less modest than Ezra in truth, but his boyfriend was no ordinary audience. Dash still felt a pressure to impress and not make a fool of himself around Ez. But dancing had worked out well enough and he felt safe and comfortable in his man's arms.

He giggled briefly, half out of nervousness and half out of resignation. Gently, eyes looking up at the stars, he started to sing.

"Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow"

Dash's chest rose and fell in Ezra's arms as he breathed deep, his whispered singing soon gathering pace.

"Lean on me
When you're not strong..."

Dash sang what he felt, sending each note of the song out into the evening air carrying the strength of their bond. He nuzzled back against Ezra with every rendition of the chorus, pushing against the lip of the pool. He wanted his boyfriend to know he could lean on the Rhinnalian forever and always.

He got so lost in the moment that he barely noticed the wisps of Force energy radiating from his fingers. As he sang of clasping hands and problems shared, two delicate spindles began to rise from the lip of the pool either side of them, ornate pillars of ice sprouting like new flowers. As he sang of loads to bear, the spindles reached toward one another, joining together in a perfect arch above them, framing the ocean view.

"...somebody to lean on...."

As Dash trailed off, he became properly aware of his handiwork above them. He had never built something out of ice before, much less by singing. Glancing around, he was relieved to see the pool itself had not frozen, in fact the water did not even feel any colder.

"So, before you tell me I can't sing for shit Mr special ears, you should know that at least does not normally happen"

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

Ezra held Dash tightly as he began to sing. He had heard this song before, but it was something else hearing his boyfriend singing it to him. There was a rush of elation and warmth, and he decided he wanted to hear Dash sing far more often. He closed his eyes and leaned into him as Dash sang the chorus, nuzzling against the crook of his neck. If Ezra could stop time here he would, and just have it be the two of them overlooking the ocean, their warm bodies pressed against one another, the stars stretched out above them.

His sensitive ears picked up some noise and he glanced over to see intricate pillars of ice forming. His eyes widened, but he said nothing to interrupt the song. Did Dash even realize this was happening? He half expected the water to get frigid, preparing for the unpleasant shift. But it never came. So he simply held his boyfriend and watched the beautiful display. Ice truly was an extension of Dash and an expression of him in so many ways. He didn’t even have to think about it for it to manifest. Ezra was relaxed and content, lost in the tones of Dash’s voice, mesmerized by the powerful command of the element.

Ezra turned Dash around to face him again when he spoke, smiling at the blond, “I like how you sing,” He told him, the smile turning a bit more smug as he added, “And I know I’m a lot of firsts for you,” He said before he leaned in to kiss Dash tenderly. He pressed himself closer against Dash, allowing the Rhinnalian to wrap his legs around him if he pleased. Ezra drew back from the prolonged kiss, “The night is ours. What do you want to do?” They had free rein of the resort, access to anywhere on the planet, and time to waste.

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

If Dash feared Ezra might be freaked out by the random ice structure, he had only to remember the other outbursts his boyfriend had seen. He traced the breadth of his boyfriend's chest as they pressed close, remembering the burns from their ship's cabin encounter. Firsts indeed.

The singing had been more risky in reality, but Ez did seem to enjoy it. He was not very good at lying about such things, even to make people feel better, so Dash took his praise at face value. "Well I am a bit rusty these days, but thanks baby". Their lips met as Ez leant in for a kiss, joining them even closer, pressed together in the water.

Dash had half a mind to lift himself up and wrap his legs around that muscled waist, or reach down where Ez's designer swimwear would have been. But he knew that would have them locked in the fire of passion in no time, followed by several hours of near comatose sleeping. They would get to that for sure, if he had anything to say about it, but the night was still young and they so rarely had this time.

He pondered Ezra's question, looking over his shoulder down at the beach below. A few other guests at the resort were congregating at a casual beach bar on the sand, drinking cocktails beneath glowing lights hung between the palms. The faint sound of rhythmic, beating music began to drift upwards, emanating from a couple of local musicians.

"Well, we did dinner" Dash said smiling "what about a few more drinks before we turn in?" he tilted his head towards the bar down on the beach. They could dress casual this time and did not have to go down for long. But the Rhinnalian was intrigued; Ez seemed to be in the mood for dancing, maybe they could have some more firsts tonight.

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

“Around other people?” Ezra asked as he followed Dash’s line of sight. The displeasure was clear on his face. Ezra didn’t like people. He wanted nothing more than to disappear into their room and have Dash all to himself. In the end, he kicked off the edge of the pool, taking Dash with him to float back to the edge. Ezra climbed out and dried himself off, walking back into the suite to rinse off and change. He wore something casual, still throwing on a chrono and some sandals. And of course a few spritz of an expensive cologne.

The Thorne wasn’t thrilled about being around other people, especially on an ISC planet where others would likely recognize him. He hoped that everyone was simply too drunk and focused on beach fun to pay attention to him. To reduce the chances of annoying women waltzing up to him, he loosely hooked a finger with Dash’s as they walked down the beach.

There was a bonfire near the bar and some easy tunes playing. A few drunk guests were already happily dancing away, the music resounding against the backdrop of the sound of waves. Ezra stopped at the bar and got a coconut thrust into his hand with a straw through it. He shrugged and took a sip, his icy gaze panning over the scene.

“I can’t believe you grew up on a planet without beaches,” Ezra said as he sipped from his colada, “Sounds depressing.”

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

"You love people" Dash said jokingly "but don't worry, looks like they're having their own fun". Dash did not underestimate the pressure and scrutiny Ezra felt in public settings - he had even felt a fraction of it himself nowadays - but he did not think the beach would be a biggie. A few tipsy couples in an elite, arguably romantic, beach bar would likely be too busy to get hung up on Ez's celebrity status.

Dash followed Ez out the pool to get dressed. He almost had second thoughts as they passed the bed, his boyfriend's wet body perfectly captured in the low lighting, but he somehow reined himself in. They had definitely learnt a little more self-restraint since Thorne Manor.

While they were heading down to the beach, Dash had no intention of toning down the heat. He opted for cute two-piece and left the shirt open as they headed down to the beach, hooking fingers with Ez who looked perfect and refined as usual.

When the bartender shoved a coconut in each of their hands, Dash had to confess to some confusion. He was loosely aware of the fruit itself from movies, but putting a drink in it? He was about to mention it when he noticed Ez sipping his own nonchalantly. Well if it was good enough for a Thorne...

"Look, I know Rhinnal didn't exactly sell itself to you" Dash chided over his cocktail "but it's just very different. Swap the beaches for glaciers, the sailing for snowboarding, the sandcastles for snowmen. We had just as much fun, ask Ty". He took another sip, finding it hard to visualise those childhood memories in such a different environment. "I do like that you can wear less in the heat though" he added. It had always been tough to look sexy on a night out back home, even in the best Rhinnalian wool.

"Do you have a favourite cocktail?" he asked, sipping his coconut concoction "I bet you've tried them all, like everywhere. Is it something they only make on the third moon of Naboo with spice from an endangered plant?".

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

Ezra listened as Dash began by saying Rhinnal didn’t sell itself, but…and then proceeded to list a number of unpleasant things that only validated Ezra’s perception of the ice planet. He knew better than to criticize his boyfriend’s chilly home, so he occupied himself by taking another long sip of his drink, “Ty hasn’t been on speaking terms since his team fell out of the championships,” Ezra snickered, pure glee dancing in his eyes. The two were very aggressively into their sports and following their teams, especially since they had legendary rivalries.

He shrugged vaguely at the cocktail question, “Don’t care much for alcohol,” He admitted. It was something he often didn’t profess out loud, but it was one of those habits that carried over from a household of super healthy eaters. Ezra didn’t share the sentiment with his friends in case they nagged him about being a teetotaler. He simply didn’t care too much for drinking, though he was a big caf fanatic, “But I will say that the spicy Outer Rim drinks are way better than the tame shit back in the Core Worlds,” He spent a lot of time on Coruscant because of school and the cuisine he was exposed to was surprisingly bland compared to Outer Rim planets.

Ezra finished his coconut and put it aside, glancing over to the bonfire. He glanced over at his boyfriend, surprised this was the first time he was asking him this, “Do you want to dance?”

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

Dash heard what Ez said about Ty and some championships, but it made no more sense to him than the last time. He was genuinely chuffed that the two of them got on - it made up for dad and Lan being too busy to meet Ez properly - but he could not make any sense of their shared interests. Ty even messaged him more than he ever had, asking him to pass on jibes to Ezra he neither knew or understood.

The Rhinnalian was not entirely surprised at Ezra's answer once he had thought about it. "Hmmm, you are so.....you." was all he ended up saying "I should apologise now for the few nights you might be carrying me home then". His boyfriend was definitely right about Outer Rim fun over Core World routine, but Dash could generally manage to get drunk anywhere. He liked a drink and a party and as much as he pretended his slight frame really could not take that much.

He was sipping the last of his cocktail when Ezra asked him if he wanted to dance. Dash actually laughed, safe in the knowledge he was experiencing a daydream. When he realised it was real, he felt like a high-schooler all over again.

"Yeah, of course" he replied "if you do?". He looked up at Ez with hesitant, hopeful blue eyes. He had loosely planned on building up to the suggestion, so his boyfriend had caught him totally off guard. He slowly kicked his sandals off just in case, feeling loose and limber at the feel of the sand.

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

Ezra’s brows furrowed when Dash told him he was so him, “What does that mean?” He asked, unsure whether to be offended or not. His boyfriend didn’t help matters by outright laughing at his offer of a dance. Ezra was about to redact said offer, his ears turning red, when Dash changed his mind. He didn’t say anything about whether or not he wanted to, but he simply walked with Dash towards the bonfire after kicking off his own sandals.

The others were happily jumping and circling around the fire in whatever dance they chose. Others danced more intimately. Ezra had a buzz going, but he wasn’t exactly sloshed. His Sephi traits meant even light drinking pushed him over the edge and he had no desire to puke up his guts in front of a crowd.

As the lazy reggae rhythms played, Ezra swayed lightly from side to side. Unless Dash initiated something, he would be content doing the generic side to side rocking and just vibing routine. He did grasp Dash’s hand, playfully raising his arm to twirl the other teen. Ezra was content with all this, the fire accenting the contours of his face and the brilliant silver of his eyes. He smiled down at his boyfriend, tenderness in his gaze and posture.

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

Ezra padding over to the bonfire was answer enough and Dash followed him excitedly. The Rhinnalian was amazed Ez was still open to dancing down here, in front of others, but he was glad all the same. He knew he was doubly lucky his boyfriend had not run a mile at the misplaced laugh and chided himself for letting tipsiness get the better of him. The wine from dinner was still in his system.

Dash settled into a casual sidestep back and forth, moving his body in time with the beat. Most of the other couples were absorbed in each other and the gathering around the fire subconsciously made room for them. Ez reached out out to twirl him and Dash embraced it, spinning deftly on the sand, his open shirt riding up. He stepped out to the side still holding his boyfriend's hand, their arms extended between them. Ezra looked a million credits, a tropical prince beautifully captured in the firelight.

As they came back together, Dash pulled in close, swaying side to side again but this time inches apart. He mirrored Ezra's moves, but in reverse, complimenting his style and leaning in and out over his shoulder. The danced like two stars bound in each other's orbit. The Rhinnalian drank in those deep warm silvers, the hard-won smile and the sensual scent of the cologne. "You is all you need to be" he said softly, in answer to the earlier question. "I love you".

He reached up and put a hand on Ez's neck, the other settling on the Thorne's waist as they danced even closer. They were in time now, moving as one as they stared into each other's eyes. Dash could have stayed in that moment all night, until his swaying legs finally gave way from exhaustion.

But certain fires could only be contained for so long. He touched his forehead with his boyfriend's, reaching up with his free hand to undo a couple of the buttons on Ezra's shirt. "I want this to go on forever" he said, barely a whisper as he looked up at Ez, his blue eyes full of passion and promise. "Promise me it will". Part of him meant the night, however impossible that was, but in truth he meant their love and the overwhelming adoration blazing in his chest.

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

Ezra could hardly take his eyes off Dash, the flames accenting the contours of his muscled chest just right. He was in pure bliss, listening to the lazy tunes and swaying with his man under the stars. Even he couldn’t be grumpy or moody right now, moving with Dash to the rhythm. His feet dug into the soft sand, and he felt the warmth of the bonfire.

Dash professed his love and Ezra looked a bit surprised, followed by a smile and a twitch of his ears. He was still not entirely used to those words, and they melted him every time. Whenever he said them back, Dash also gave his ‘I know’, so he didn’t bother this time. Ezra instead raised their entwined hands and kissed Dash’s knuckles affectionately.

When Dash spoke again, Ezra paused briefly. He glanced down where Dash unbuttoned his shirt, giving the other teen a smirk, “Is that some sort of half-assed marriage proposal?” He quipped in typical Ezra fashion. He nudged Dash towards himself before the other teen could pout, pressing their lips together.

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

Ezra looked back at him unflinching, warmth greater than the fire radiating from those silver eyes. There was an exotic quality to the way his boyfriend could be silent when most people would babble or think aloud. Only statues were supposed to be so pensive, but, to Dash, Ezra often looked carved from stone.

The quip was delivered with a smirk but the M word was a big one to drop out. Dash had little time to think about as their lips met, silencing anything he might have said. He kissed Ezra back long and deep, pulling a little on his boyfriend's neck, his other hand tugging on his half open shirt.

The touch and feel of his man made it easy to replay their story. It hit Dash that it had nearly been a year and he almost bit Ez's lip at the realisation. Had it really been that long?

He undid the last button on Ezra's shirt, their bodies now touching again as they ground together. Dash tried to put the M word out of his mind - there had been whispers around his knighting ceremony - but he had never let himself race that far ahead.

Finally, he came up for air, and had to say something. "I don't do anything half-assed" he said, reaching around to grab Ezra's rear for effect. "But I notice you didn't promise". He threw his head back, tongue between his teeth in obviously feigned disappointment. He kept his hands firmly on those muscled cheeks, even as he glanced around.

The musicians were playing a new set and some of the patrons were starting to slip away. Dash's gaze fell on the seafront, the waves lapping the shore down beyond the lights of the bar. "Wanna go down there?" he suggested, nodding his head towards the sandy shore hidden in darkness.

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

Unlike Dash, Ezra didn’t have any internal spiral on marriage. The thought was as far from his mind as possible, his focus always on the present. He focused on the kiss and the taste of Dash’s lips. They both tasted like their sugary drinks and it only made it that much better. His shirt was entirely unbuttoned and their chests pressed together. One of Ezra’s hands slid down to grip at Dash’s waist under the layer of his shirt.

Dash drew back and Ezra looked content and almost dazed, an almost surprised look on his face when his boyfriend shamelessly groped him in public. His face grew hot and his ears pink. The kiss had been bold for Ezra and now he had his shirt undone and he was getting handsy with Dash. That drink definitely lowered some inhibitions..

“Okay okay I promise,” Ezra didn’t even know what that meant. He didn’t deal with super romantic dialogue and could barely cough up admitting when he missed Dash after they were apart. His gaze flicked over to where Dash suggested going. He had an internal dilemma- How was he supposed to do the deed with Dash out on a semi-public beach when that’s where his mind was after all the teasing and undressing? But then he looked over at Dash and all the sap that was oozing from him. His eyes were full of love and affection and all things romantic. Ezra should have just had Dash in that damn pool.

“Yeah, baby, let’s go,” Ezra said, not a single thread of his internal line of thoughts manifesting on his face. His unwavering poker face was the stuff of legends, passed down through generations of Thustran royalty he would never know. Their fingers entwined again and they walked along the beach to where it was dark except for the moonlight above the inky black waves.

Ezra kept walking to dip his toes into the incoming waves, the temperate waters almost warm. It would be perfect for a swim. He looked over at Dash, snaking his arm around his waist to pull him closer to him as they both looked over the horizon, “I promise,” He said again very quietly, his tone entirely different this time.

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

Ez went along with the beach plan surprisingly and they sneaked off down towards the sea front, leaving the music and the lights of the bar behind.

The dipped their toes in the lapping waves, standing statuesque together looking out over the moonlit waves. Ezra slinked an arm around Dash and his boyfriend’s reassuring touch made the Rhinnalian feel all warm and fuzzy. He felt so content and serene and simultaneously on fire.

When Ez promised they were forever, properly this time, Dash was overcome.

“Me too” he said, rounding on Ezra and gently pushing him back from the water. “I want you baby, right now”. His gestures were quite insistent and he did his best to pull his boyfriend down onto the sand. He had done this in snow, but a beach was a new one. But they were hidden by the night and he was in the grip of passion and more than a few drinks by now, the animal magnetism he felt with Ez driving him. Dash was in the mood for new things all round.

“That ass feels as good as it looks. I think you’re going to give it me”.

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

Ezra was still staring at the moon when Dash tugged him close. He glanced over and he knew that look. He had seen it in his boyfriend’s eyes many times before. When Dash declared he wanted to do it right here, Ezra looked around briefly. He wasn’t as impulsive by nature, and he grew up with the galaxy constantly spying on him, “Baby, here?” He protested, finding the thought of being caught by drunk resort guests that had the same idea entirely unsavory.

When Dash spoke next, Ezra’s eyes widened and his ears turned red. He had only brought it up once before, but had always been too on the fence to actually explore it. This was the first time Dash mentioned it and Ezra couldn’t deny the surge of exhilaration that coursed through him. As romantic as the beach was, Ezra refused to explore something so personal out in the open. Ezra was stubborn as a bantha about some things, and this was no different.

“Come on, we can get more drinks on the way,” He said as he grabbed Dash by the hand and practically dragged him back towards their suite.

It took almost no time to get back to their room, and Ezra found himself in the luxurious master bedroom that opened up to a massive balcony overlooking the ocean. The sounds of the waves and the smell of the salty air made it feel as if they were back on the beach.

Their clothes were casually strewn about and Ezra stared up at his boyfriend while on his back on the bed, marveling at the way the moonlight cast shadows just right against every angle. He tugged the Rhinnalian down, their lips meeting as he embraced Dash and felt that familiar, slightly cool skin against his. He was nervous and his heart thundered against his chest, but he knew he wanted this. He knew he wanted this only with Dash.

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

Ezra would not go along with sex on the beach.

Whatever his views on the cocktail, Dash could tell he would not be persuaded by the reality right here on the sand. It was a bit risqué admittedly, but all the same Dash might have tried to push him down if they were back in their early days. But Ez’s gym routine meant he was no longer a scrawny beanpole. He was now as physically immovable as he was emotionally. Why did Dash always choose the difficult ones.

He gave Ezra a naughty smile, enjoying his boyfriends’s apprehension and pink ears as he let himself be dragged across the sand and back up to their suite.

Their clothes were off in no time and Dash leapt onto the bed, barely noticing his little archway by the pool had melted into two collapsing pillars while they had been away.

He embraced his boyfriend, their lips locking in the well woven dance they both loved so much. “I won’t lie” he breathed, kissing Ez’s neck “this bed beats sand for sure”. Dash ran his hands over his man’s body, resting on his muscled thighs

“Tonight’s been amazing baby, I wanna do something new for you too”. His blue eyes flashed suggestively, his hands roving once again. “Is Mr Thorne game?”.

@Sreeya

 

[Ezra Thorne]

They had been here many times before, and it was still just as tantalizing. It was a bit different now because he was venturing into new territory, and there was anticipation and desire all mixed into one. He got lost in the kiss and their tangled bodies, his urges very prominently manifesting at this point. He could still clearly hear the sounds of the waves, a rush coursing through him as Dash’s hands traveled along his thighs.

When Dash spoke, Ezra looked up almost nervously, but he wanted this. He was used to tossing Dash around and taking charge in many ways. This time he felt at his boyfriend’s mercy even more than when Dash froze his hands. He exhaled softly as Dash kissed along his neck, his eyes closing briefly before he met his boyfriend again.

“I want it,” Ezra said simply, his own hand trailing down the front of Dash’s chest and sliding even lower to tease and please. At the same time, his ears seemingly twitched of their own accord, still red from all the flirting at the beach, “Just uh…be gentle..” Now it was his face that turned red, and he was hilariously out of his element. He felt like an inexperienced fool, but technically this was his first time. The rush to have Dash like this overcame any anxieties. He just focused on his gorgeous, muscled boyfriend and being entirely at his mercy.

@Alhon

 

[Dash Pavan]

It made Dash melt to see Ezra nervous or uncertain. He was all hard steel most of the time, with most people, physically strong with a confidence to match. To glimpse him with his walls down, anxious and unsure how to act, was to see him at his most adorable.

The Rhinnalian knew this was new ground for his boyfriend, like much of their bedroom antics. It was always important to him for Ez to be happy and comfortable, but even more so in these moments. Dash might be burning with passion right now, but he could rein it in for Ezra. Love gave you that kind of control.

“Gently it is” he replied softly, meeting those silver eyes with his own. “Though something tells me you’ll pick this up quick, like everything else”.

Ezra’s hand had done its work below and Dash was ready to go. He intended to keep his word though and silently pulled a small tub from his pack with the Force. Ez was hopefully too high on the thrill to notice Dash had brought such an aid along, anticipating this moment. But then, it was date night after all.

He reached down with a hand to the one spot on Ezra’s body left to conquer, the cool, relaxing gel on his fingertips no doubt sending a shiver through his boyfriend’s body. Dash arched up and went exploring between those muscled thighs, excited to go even deeper with his man. This night really was a dream.
