A Friend of a Friend [Nox's Building]

[Hayden]

Hayden laughed. "Being an ass is part of my charm. And there is no worries about tears. I've seen it all honey."

Hayden kicked his feet against the cupboard below his feet. "But Nox can talk to anyone who will listen to him. He has no problem sharing his darkest secrets cause he doesn't give a fuck what anyone else thinks."

He spoke softly because there was no telling what child might be lingering in the shadows in the house. "Nox likes talking to me because I fill a need. He's got the violence and the fucking with Oriena. He needed someone who was just there. He needed a softer physical connection. The loss of his sister did more than lose family. And no he wasn't sleeping with his sister. She was his anchor in the mental world and in the physical world. And he found someone to fill the whole only to fuck it up. And not to mention the monster living in his head rent free. That's not helpful. But anyway, Nox doesn't talk to me cause I'm easy to talk to. Well I am. But there's a lot more to it than that. For both of us."

[Elyse]

Elyse smiled - he was pretty blunt about it. ”I got it,” she said. It was clear they slept together. ”Well, we’ve not slept together, and I still think you’re easy to talk to.”

Elyse turned inward for a bit, digesting what he said, trying to determine if there was an offer in that. She had a need too. And with his reference to Ori and fucking, she assumed that Hayden was a more gentle lover. Not that she had been with Ori - or even met the woman who was technically her boss. She could really use that right now, something gentle. Hell - she didn’t even need sex - just cuddling. Just human contact that was gentle, and she found herself comfortable with that person being Hayden, she also found herself being okay with Hayden rejecting her. But part of her didn’t think he would be receptive, but another part wondered why he would bring it up.

”Im assuming im not getting the same treatment,” she said, meeting his gaze, her voice unashamed. ”Becauae I would be receptive to that.”

She knew she had a need, and it could be met with Hayden. If not , she could find another. She didn’t need a lover, just companionship.

[Hayden]

That wasn't exactly why he was telling her this. He had just wanted her to be aware that she lived with someone who wasn't just a 'friend.' It tends to complicate things if you think your secrets are being told to someone else. Hayden hopped off the counter. "It wasn't intended as an offer. Not because I don't think you are attractive." He moved slowly around the island that separated them carefully watching her before he stopped next to her and took her chin in his and looked down in her eyes. "I don't do love. I am sleeping with others, one of them being your ex-boyfriend and current housemate. And it doesn't have to be about sex."

Hayden leaned down and pressed his lips tentatively against hers. It was soft and tender and slow before he pulled away. "Doesn't need to be soft and tender, can be brutal and rough if that's your thing. I can be whatever you need, however you want. It's not always part of the gig, but I enjoy all aspects of learning about a person."

[Elyse]

Elyse enjoyed the kiss, and it was enough to tell her that she did need something gentle right now. She didn’t know why it had changed, maybe it was because things with Mae had usually been so intense. Not that she didn’t like that, but this seemed right.

”I understand,” she said, referring to his views on love. This wasn’t about love for her. ”I thought I needed angry sex earlier, but now I don’t. I don’t know why it’s changed, but it has. What I need right now, after all the isolation, is to feel close to someone. That’s doesn’t require sex, but,” she looked Hayden in the eyes. ”I want that too - not rough and hard, but gentle.”

Elyse put her hand behind his neck and pulled him in for another gentle kiss on the lips. ”Will you come with me?” she whispered to him, taking one of his hands in hers and beginning to pull him gently towards the stairs that would lead to her room.

[Hayden]

It was ironic. And probably no wonder that Nox and Elyse had hooked up for a time. They were probably what the other needed during that time.

Hayden followed his hand in hers as she led them up to the second floor. He'd been there once before and he couldn't help but laugh as Elyse pushed open the door to the very same room he and Seven had their torrid affair in the night of the house party. He covered his mouth with his hand and cleared his throat. "I'm sorry. I told you about the whole orgy house party. Think I mentioned being with someone..." Hayden chuckled in the middle of his sorta story. "Yeah it was this room. I made sure Nox cleaned the sheets or god I hope he did before he let you move in."

Hayden pushed into the room and pulled Elyse in after him. "I will behave. I promise." Though he was still finding humor in the situation as he sat down on the bed and kicked his shoes off to the far side of the room out of the way and pulled Elyse towards him. "If you need angry sex in the middle say banana." He was till being silly but he was still totally serious. "I mean it. Say it."

[Elyse]

Elyse laughed at the situation. Things could always be awkward when you had sex for the first time. Hayden’s comments, intentional or not, had alleviated a lot of that. She suspected that he had. He seemed good at that.

Elyse sat in his lap as he pulled her closer. ”I understand, and I will,” she said. She understood the concept of safe words - although this seemed more like a backwards safe word.

Elyse smiled as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders. ”For now, nice and gentle though.”

She pressed her lips to his, lightly, smiling into it. This really did feel nice after the time she had spent isolating. She moved her hands slowly and lightly to his shoulders and began to move them down his chest.

[Hayden]

Hayden grinned through the kiss and followed her lead. He didn't exactly mimic what she did but where she went he went. That was the game until she needed otherwise.

His fingers caressed her cheeks, her neck, her jaw and down her arms. Every touch sensual and gentle. His mouth found her neck and he nipped and sucked softly elliciting soft sounds and playing more to make more. Each touch he noted her reaction, it wasn't like a tally or note, but he'd remember everything again. He didn't have a photographic memory but he knew people, retrained that information to use for later.

Every whispered word. Every moan. Every slight twitch told Hayden a story. And he read Elyse like a book. He wasn't great the first time around at anticipating wants and desires, but he knew enough women to know the basics and didn't ever go wrong with the basics.

Time passed with the gentle touches, the mouth and hands lingering above and under clothes. And when that moment came when the sensations were itching too fast, too hard, and they both wanted a little more flesh, Hayden reached around Elyse's hips and pulled her shirt over her head and made fast work to move his mouth lower, to taste her shoulders, kiss the tops of her breasts above her bra.

It would likely go much faster now that clothes were being removed. And details would get blurry but the memories would linger.

[Elyse]

Elyse let him move around her, shivering in pleasure as his hands gently caressed her. A moan escaped her lips as he he nipped at her neck. She allowed him to take the lead, trusting him to meet her needs. She had told him what she wanted, and even now, without words, she was communicating what she wanted, and Hayden was receptive.

He pulled her shirt off and she began working the buttons of his, resisting the urge to speed the process up. Elyse knew she’d speak his word, but she wanted to wait. She wanted it to build, knowing the longer she waited, the more intense it would be. Her breathing quickened as he began to kiss the tops of her breasts. She slid his shirt off. Her hands began to drift, feeling the muscles of his chest and abdomen. She moaned louder, her hips beginning to make slight motions with the rhythm of his kisses.

She smiled as she tilted his head up to look into her eyes before she began to return the favor. She followed his lead, lips and tongue trailing from his jawline to neck and down to his chest. Her hands slipped behind her to remove her bra and then she took his hand in hers, interlacing fingers with his. She moved off of his lap and laid down on the bed, gently guiding him to join her.

[Hayden]

His hands captured in her limited his movement, he wanted out of his clothes they'd become too tight, too restrictive and the grate of the demin against his thighs and groin was not helpful in the least. It wasn't the sort of friction his body wanted. With a knee on either side of her Hayden pushed her hands above her head and kissed her gently, teasingly as he pulled his fingers froms and whispered. "Don't move."

Hayden used his fingers, his mouth and tongue to ellicit any sort of movement from her as he worked his way down her body so he could rid them both of their clothes. He was all for slow and sensual but sometimes, you just had to take what you wanted.

When he reached her waist his tongue dipped into her belly button as he undid the fasteners on her pants. And then moved off the bed in one quick movement removing the last remaining vestiges of clothing from Elyse's body in a expertly practiced move. Thank god it wasn't sticky leather.

He stood at the end of the bed admiring the beautiful woman in all her glory and a thought occurred to him and he wondered if her wolf ever got out during intimate moments. He'd have to ask later he thought as he shed the last of his clothes, let her admire in return before joining her on the bed.

Hayden kissed his way from foot to mouth and then rolling them both over with a quick move. "This is your rodeo sister." He grinned up at her. He was hers for whatever she wanted, however she wanted.

[Elyse]

Need was beginning to build, increased only by anticipation and lust. His tongue sent shivers of pleasure through her body. Gentle was beginning to not cut it, but she waited. It wasn’t time yet. As his tongue dipped into her belly button, she moaned, surprised at how it made her feel. She didn’t resist the removal of her pants, lifting her hips to assist.

She almost gave into her lust as he looked at her. A small playful look at his pants indicating that they needed to go to. She was not disappointed as she looked at him, admiring his strong build. Hayden had told her to be angry, and slowly she began to stoke that as he flipped her on top of him. It still wasn’t time. She took over, and began to move slowly as they joined together. Her movements still light and gentle were accentuated by her gentle kiss to his lips. Their tongues entwined as she gently stroked his hair.

She held back, not out of fear, but to build the anticipation. All her frustrations for the last couple of days began to build up. She stoked it with lust. She knew Hayden would sense it as her hands pressed pressed tighter, her kisses became more passionate, and her breathing and pace quickened. She knew it was time.

Elyse began to plant her kisses on his jaw, until she got to his ear. She had been right. She had needed angry sex, but she had needed to build up to it. ”Banana,” she whispered into his ear. Her hands took his and not so gently she pinned them above his head. He was hers.
