Prince and his Knight.

[longwinded]

As a young Prince, John was granted to have one Knight around him at all times. The top of the newest class, the strongest in the Kingdom. That was what John wanted, and he would have no less. That was how he met Dave, a stunning young man who....didn't say very much, but was certainly worthy of fighting by his Lord's side. The age difference wasn't too stunning. John a mere seventeen and Dave in his mid twenties, it wasn't long before they became friends. It wasn't like this was a shocker to John, he and Dave had many things in common and sometimes the line between being a Lord and a Knight and just being two regular best friends was extremely blurred.

"Dave!" John calls out to his Knight. It seems that something is deeply troubling him.

It's the start of a new chapter in young John's life. Rumors of him being married off to the Princess in the neighboring Kingdom were running high and it was something that was giving him quite a hard time. It was his loyal Knight Dave that got most of the whining about this. He was a quiet and patient fellow, one that would actually listen to him when he needed to speak.

He doesn't even wait for Dave to acknowledge that he's been called. "We are going out for a little while, could you prepare the horses?" Which usually meant a conversation in the woods was about to happen. John needed to blow off steam.

Wow is right, those are two hands firmly grasping the most wonderful butt in the entire Kingdom. Like who gives a guy a butt like this. John found no reason for Dave to be embarrassed, but having him right there was kind of nice. They seemed so close right now, physically of course.

"Are you quit alright, Dave?" Another squeeze to that fine butt.

[rememberstime]

Dave isn't sure whether to nod or shake his head. Honestly, he isn't sure if he's alright. He's flustered and confused and conflicted. He guesses maybe he isn't quite alright, but he doesn't give a response. Because he doesn't know which is how he feels. He's stuck in some limbo right between alright and not alright.

[longwinded]

He turns his head and places a kiss on Dave's temple, as if to try and give him the extra reassurance that this was okay. "Dave." Another kiss to his temple. "It is okay if you wish to place your arms around me. You look as if you may grip the tree with iron force!" Which wouldn't be good, not at all. John is still completely oblivious to Dave's internal struggle, unfortunately.

[rememberstime]

Dave kind of just shakes his head. No, no no. Touching you. That's totally out of the question. He already did it once. He can't do it again. John doesn't realize just how many walls he's going to have to break down for Dave to probably get comfortable about this. Just. The social barrier is pretty damn ingrained in someone like Dave who's always been at the bottom in his mind.

[longwinded]

He wishes his knight would think better of himself. Even John knew that Dave was someone in a high rank in a good Kingdom and John really didnt think of himself as much higher than Dave. But it was apparent that the other was going to have to be eased into this. This wasnt going to come overnight and John was going to have to be patient. But what if he didnt desire to be patient?

He put his hand under Dave's chin and lifts his face so that they are looking at one another eye to eye before he presses their lips together again. Unfortunately Dave will have to deal with John's impatience. He wants him now.

[rememberstime]

Well, John had all the power he wanted to get Dave to do what he wanted. He'd eventually give in to give John what he wished for even if the other didn't care to ease him into it.

Dave furrowed his brow as John leaned in to kiss him again. He knew the other wouldn't back down at this point. He could stall, but he couldn't stop John. John was like a hurricane. He couldn't be stopped and it was always chaotic to try. There was a moment of peace, but the storm would always pick up again.

[longwinded]

John was abusing the power to get what he wanted. The unsaid loyalty was strong here, and Dave hadn't moved. So John assumes that Dave has already given in and he just needed a gentle person to move him closer to fully accepting the situation.

Which John was willing to do, while ultimately making Dave somewhat uncomfortable in the end. He moved his lips against Dave's coaxing him into doing the same all the while pulling their bodies closer together. It was the instinct he he just wanted to be really close when this was happening.

It is really unfortunate in the end that John is ending up conveying his feelings in the wrong way. He knows that he has true blue feelings for Dave. He's just putting them out in a selfish and not so genuine way.

[rememberstime]

Dave does give in. He kisses back, but there's an obvious reluctance. It was awkward to just stand there and get kissed, and he was sure this was what John wanted back from him. It made his stomach twist into uncomfortable knots, but the entire situation had been like that since John started his advances.

John was young and sometimes he could be dumb. Dave is very sure that this will pass. He doesn't think John will actually pursue him at the magnitude he said he would.

[longwinded]

The kiss is nice, but of course John being John he will always want more out of a situation than is completely necessary. His hand makes its way into Dave's hair and he runs his teeth along the others lip.

The point was that no matter how hard Dave tried to convince himself that John's feelings would go away, they wouldn't. John would do everything in his power to impress Dave and woo him. Speaking of pushing too far, the hand in Dave's hair grips and handful and he uses it to pull gently in the effort still to get Dave to part his lips.

[rememberstime]

Dave feels his legs buckle a bit and he can't help but shudder when John pulls his hair. Even if it were gentle, the feeling that goes through his body is something else. He parts his lips, but only if to take a sharp intake of breath.

So much for resisting him.

[longwinded]

John catches Dave's lips while they're open. He is pretty inexperienced so really the only thing he knows how to do here is give open mouthed kisses. His hands don't stop giving constant grip to the other's hair either.

John has finally found a point where he can at least get Dave to cooperate. He ain't letting it go.

[rememberstime]

Dave actually makes an audible whimper, face flushed bright red as he keeps himself braced against the tree. Honestly, if the tree weren't there, he might actually be on the ground.

Things you didn't want your sire to know: what hair pulling does to you.

[longwinded]

Dave being on the ground might actually be a little more helpful than their current situation. John would probably sit on his lap if that became the case any time soon. For now he's going to move to kissing Dave's jaw, using his hair ti guide his head where ever he so pleased.

He is so very glad that he is now fully informed on what hair pulling does to his knight.

[rememberstime]

His hands move to press against John's chest. There's not much strength behind it though, like Dave isn't sure whether to actually push him away or not. He looks so damn flustered and he seems to get more and more embarrassed whenever John tugs at his hair.

His body was on fire and he was praying to god that John doesn't pick up how his body was reacting to this all.

[longwinded]

John isn't hearing any opposing to continuing this little train of action. He dares to even go further. One hand in Dave's hair and the other hand dropping to hold onto his hip.

John hasn't picked up on anything. But. He still wants Dave to feel good regardless, so him being a little dense might actually cause poor Dave to have a sensory overload.

[rememberstime]

He lightly pushes at the other, trying to put space between them. He can't keep going with this, it's too much for him. Being in such an intimate situation with anyone was pretty overwhelming in itself. With John? It's way too much.

He needs space. John needs to give him space.

[longwinded]

John sense the urgency, and he's disappointed to have to pull away. After all the work he did to rile him up and everything. He stops everything but pulling on his hair. His hands were still in his hair, tugging every so often.

"Is something the matter?"

[rememberstime]

Dave's hands were shaking a bit and he just pushes against John's chest again. He looks obviously completely overwhelmed at the moment. Like John shouldn't even have to ask to know that maybe he's pushing Dave a little too much at the moment.

He's demanding for a lot from him and he isn't quite ready to give that much.

[longwinded]

Then he'll have to take a gentler approach to the situation. He doesn't do any more, he just brings Dave closer into a hug. John knows how selfish he is to want to do this, but his desires are making this so much harder.

He mumbles a sorry.

[rememberstime]

Dave looks mostly apologetic despite it. Like he feels bad for not being able to fulfill whatever John wishes. He's still a loyal knight to John and failing in any way still was a blow to his conscious.

Even if he knew well enough that he could not go through with what John wanted.

[longwinded]

He wishes Dave didn't look so apologetic. John knows this is his own fault. He's trying to comfort Dave now. He can probably apologize a thousand times. He'll apologize a thousand more. He fucked up really good.

Dave probably doesn't trust him right now.

[rememberstime]

John is dumb if he thinks that. Dave has been his loyal knight for so long. John doing stupid shit won't change that.

He would really appreciate it if he could...not be stuck against a tree though. That would be pretty nice.

[longwinded]

John is dumb about a lot of things. He holds an attraction to his knight and he is convinced that he just fucked up whatever chance he had to express that. He just wants to hold on a little longer...so if Dave doesn't really tell or signal to John what he wants.

He really can't move.

[rememberstime]

Dave shifts from foot to foot before he...

"...Milord..?" Can you like...stop pinning him to this tree? Seriously. Please?

[longwinded]

"Ah, sorry sorry. Forgive me." He moves finally, man John way to go you done fucked up. How badly did you have to fuck up for your own night to sound fucking terrified of you.

Nevermind the fact...Dave. Oh. Did he just? "What was that?" He did, didn't he!
