( he enjoys the act. sliding his dick in deep until the first breathless hitch of denial. sometimes he forces sasuke to endure it longer, and sometimes he's quick to withdraw. sasuke grips his wrist and he covers his hand briefly with the second of his own, skirting his hand up sasuke's arm to his shoulder. cradling him as much as one can be cradled in this matter while still being ruthlessly used.

it isn't until he's close that he eases back entirely, leaving sasuke a mess of drool and precome and tears that cy bends to wipe from his cheeks with tender hands. then, meeting sasuke's eyes directly, he kisses his forehead with aching tenderness. )

You're perfect.

( it's simple, as his loving excoriations tend to go. but no less meant for all that. cy reaches to undo the gag and then tosses it aside, thumbs rubbing gently at the marks where straps have dented skin. he nudges sasuke's thighs apart and then lowers himself to his knees between them, setting himself a bit lower than sasuke — but clearly no impediment to the fact he leans in and tugs him into an embrace as best they can with the burgeoning life between them. )

I love you beyond time.

( a stroke of sasuke's damp hair, fingers feathering near his scalp. )

I'll never lie to you, betray you, or put you in danger. I swear I'll never hurt you in a way you haven't asked for and can't stand. Will you marry me?

( the real reason he took the gag off, lbr. turnabout is fair play. )
