[Orym spends too much time watching the prince. In fairness, it is his job to do exactly that, but it's gone so far beyond just the act of guarding a young noble. Of course it has.
When he'd first been assigned to this position -- the personal guard to Prince Brontë, a promotion really, after he'd managed to be in the right place at the right time to thwart an unexpected assassination attempt against the King and Queen -- he hadn't known much about the younger Prince Wyvernwind, save what he could tell from afar -- that he was beautiful, fair-faced and strong-shouldered, that he always managed to look the part of dutiful and perfect prince.
As he got to know him though, he'd seen more. So much more.
The prince is genuinely kind, not only for show in public. He's gentle and soft spoken, surprisingly down to earth for a young royal who's been sheltered in his kingdom all his life. He's funny too, clever and quick-witted once opened up. It took some time, really, but they've both let their guards down around each other. Orym has to remind himself again and again that he's nothing more than bodyguard, here to keep the Prince safe. Not to keep him company.
But oh he likes his company, has come to look forward to hearing that musical laugh, come to treasure when he's managed to convince Brontë to play or sing for him. There's a warmth in his chest when the Prince confides in him, when he's given glimpses into those surprising insecurities, his hopes and dreams.
It's several months into spending day after day with the Prince that he realizes he's fallen for him. It's foolish. It's utterly foolish and it can never be anything. So he wraps those feelings away and pushes them down as deep as he can.
Today they're in the palace courtyards. The sun shines bright from a sky that is a perfect shade of blue interrupted only by a few white clouds. Orym is rolling his wrist to let his sword dip and then rise, the familiar heft and weight of the blade comfortable in his hand.]
You know, you're good with a blade. I've seen it. But I could probably teach you a few tricks, if you'd be interested.

Date: 2023-06-10 04:59 am (UTC)They'll eventually make it to the lake, probably. Maybe.]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-10 05:03 am (UTC)Then he draws back, just enough space for a breath between them, as he lightly tugs on the waistband of Orym’s trousers. ]
I feel that things are a little uneven here…
no subject
Date: 2023-06-10 05:55 am (UTC)At least until those clever fingers tug at his trousers. Oh.]
You don't have to worry about that. [Orym did, after all, get exactly what he wanted.]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-10 06:00 am (UTC)You’re sure? [ Oh, he absolutely isn’t about to let that stand, but he has an idea for how to take care of that.
So instead of pushing, he simply smiles as he tugs at the ties of the trousers. ] Well, at least let’s take that dip in the lake. That should help you cool off.
no subject
Date: 2023-06-11 07:20 am (UTC)[Another kiss works for Orym though, and he's distracted enough by that kissing that he doesn't worry about how easily Brontë seems to have given in.]
Yeah, lake sounds good.
[Distracted, very very distracted.]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-11 07:30 am (UTC)Well then. [ Carefully rising to his feet, he then holds a hand out to Orym. ] Let’s go then.
no subject
Date: 2023-06-13 06:32 am (UTC)And Orym has no idea what's in store for him at all.]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-13 06:41 am (UTC)He waits for Orym to join him in the water, then glances around until he spots some rocks sitting against the bank.
From here they look to be about the right size… ]
Hey, come with me a second?
[ He doesn’t quite wait for Orym to answer before he starts swimming towards the rocks, but he does glance back to see if he’s following. ]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-18 06:03 am (UTC)It's cool and welcome, and he finds himself over his head before he reaches his prince, but he's a good swimmer so it's not an issue.]
Yeah, of course.
[As if he'd refuse anything that Brontë asked of him. So he swims after the other man, a little curious.]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-18 06:11 am (UTC)Sit up here for a moment?
[ Even with the guard’s height, the stone was low enough that his lower half would still be underneath the surface while seated. ]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-19 05:30 am (UTC)He reaches a hand out towards the other man to beckon him closer.]
Why here?
no subject
Date: 2023-06-19 05:33 am (UTC)You didn’t really think I wouldn’t take care of you, did you?
no subject
Date: 2023-06-20 06:16 am (UTC)Ah... I...
[Well, no he should have known better, shouldn't he have?]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-20 06:33 am (UTC)You’re turn, Orym.
[ Then he steals a quick kiss, before stilling his breath in his chest and ducking underneath the water to press more kisses to Orym’s still hard arousal. ]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-24 05:02 am (UTC)Brontë..!
That's... [Fuck. Fuck fuck. It takes him a moment to realize and remember that his prince doesn't need to breathe when he doesn't want to and he realizes exactly what he's in for and gods he's too turned on for words.]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-24 05:07 am (UTC)Trailing his lips along Orym’s length for another moment, he nuzzles down at the base before slowly moving back up to the head. Then, careful to keep out as much water as he can, he takes the tip into his mouth, running his tongue along the slit. ]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-24 05:39 am (UTC)He braces his hands against the rocks beneath them, head falling back with a groan.]
You're a wicked thing, my Prince.
no subject
Date: 2023-06-24 05:45 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2023-06-28 03:40 am (UTC)The heat of that mouth is so different than the cool water of the lake, and Orym thinks it may drive him actually mad.]
no subject
Date: 2023-06-28 04:19 am (UTC)Still he’s able to move with little difficulty, drawing back until the only the tip remains in his mouth before swallowing him back down again, his hands running along Orym’s thighs in time with the bobbing of his head. ]
no subject
Date: 2023-07-01 04:54 am (UTC)Another groan and he slips his fingers into that hair beneath the surface, a soft warning that he's close, that he's going to come.]
no subject
Date: 2023-07-01 04:59 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2023-07-01 05:31 am (UTC)So he doesn't try to any longer, letting go and losing a cry of Brontë's name as he spills himself into that sinfully talented mouth.]
no subject
Date: 2023-07-01 05:42 am (UTC)When he’s sure that Orym is fully spent, he slowly draws back from the length, swiping his tongue over the slit once last time before letting it fall from his lips completely. Then he rises back up, but only enough for his eyes to break the surface of the water in order to look at Orym in a cheeky sort of manner. ]
