The house was dark when Ariel and Regulus came back in. Lights shut out, not a single noise, Ariel's parents must have been asleep in their bedroom. They quietly went up to Ariel's own room, not sharing a single word as they did.

"It feels better when we're inside," sighed the blond boy once the door was closed. He lit up the lamp on the bedside table, got rid of his cape to place it back in his closet then turned around to face Regulus who hadn't moved ever since he entered the room.

"I'm too cold, I won't remove it," he told him with seriousness, looking straight at him.

The boy chuckled, and realized his body looked frozen under the cape. He grinned while fixing him and walked up to him. He slide behind him. Regulus didn't move an inch. He angled his head, just a little to place it in the crook of Regulus' neck, moving his raven curls out of the place at the same time. The boy let sweet kisses drop on his skin, one, two, a dozen, it was like he couldn't stop himself. The other boy definitely felt warmer under his affection. He closed his eyes, let his head fall to the side, giving space to Ariel's hungry lips, and just enjoyed the moment.

"Is it helping?" sighed the blond boy against Regulus' reddish, sensitive, almost sore skin, where laid a few love bites.

"Hm. A little," answered the other boy, just as quietly.

"We could snuggle under the sheets if you want to..." he murmured again, bringing his body closer until his chest was pressed against his back. He let his arms circle his waist going to untie the cape on the front. Regulus felt Ariel's incredible warmth spread through him, it felt so satisfying, he was craving his warmth and it wasn't because of the cold anymore.

"We could, yes..." replied the raven-haired male once his cape had been removed. He turned around to face Ariel and gazed straight in his eyes. The blond boy let the cloth fall to the floor, not caring the slightest bit. The moment they stared at each other felt so short before they started kissing. Why both kissed so eagerly, hungrily even, was a total mystery at the moment, they just shared it. Regulus let his arms wrap around Ariel's neck when his own arms brought him closer into his hold. They were so close he thought they would melt into each other. And he loved that. He couldn't help wanting to feel his body even closer. When their tongues started playing together, his hands started caressing his hair with rushed movements. It felt suddenly like an explosion of passion and desire blooming between them.

They didn't know how at some point they found themselves lying on the bed, as if it was planned in the first place. Ardor hadn't left, and was even increasing with each second of this heated kiss. Regulus' body had warmed up a lot in the meantime. He just felt too hot now.

"I feel hot," were Regulus' first words once they had detached from each other. Ariel looked up from where he had been hiding in the crook of his neck to catch up his breath. He smirked a little at his words.

"You feel hot now?" His hand slide under his white shirt without hesitation and he realized that his soft skin was in fact burning. Keeping his calm, he added, "You're not cold at all anymore."

As he was about to remove his hand, Regulus went to place his own on top of it, keeping it stuck to his skin, loving the feeling of his palm on his flesh. He stared at Ariel, seriousness in his grey eyes and the blond boy stared back.

"Don't remove it," he murmured, pressing his hand to his body, where he wanted to feel it.

Ariel felt it by his tone of voice, by the force in his hold, even by the look in his eyes. He knew what he wanted. Regulus was almost seventeen. He was boy, and a teenage boy. Ariel was also a teenage boy. And he knew what teenage boys were like.

"Regulus..." he murmured somehow disapprovingly, breaking eye contact with him, almost like he couldn't face him.

"You know I want it."

"I know..." he answered, resigned. "But I want to wait, to make it special and such..."

"We waited already. It felt so long Ariel. And I think we already have something special," honestly said the boy.

Ariel looked up at him, and his face still looked as serious. He realized once again how much he could unveil himself, his feelings when they were being this intimate. And it made his heart beat faster. The corner of his lips turned up into a little grin as he averted his eyes again. And it urged Regulus to continue.

"Ariel," he started, and the blond boy looked back up again. "I know you want it too. Your kisses have always been wild, but you don't kiss me like that every day."

A light chuckle he couldn't hold back left the older boy's mouth. "Am I that obvious?"

"As much as I am."

He hummed at his words as he fixed him. His hand started moving then, up and down his side. He drew his face closer, his blue irises now sliding down to Regulus' pink lips and he offered him a surprisingly chaste kiss, before his lips started moving slowly, with his actions full of sensuality.

"I can't really resist you, can I..." he whispered as he bit down on his bottom lip. His eyes admired Regulus' face for a second. He had his eyes closed, his usually pale cheeks had turned crimson and his parted lips seemed to be screaming for more. And so he let his own lids close before getting a taste of his mouth again.

Ariel was a very sexual boy, no doubt. He had never been able to completely hide his attraction towards Regulus. And it was a great satisfaction to finally let his fantasies become true, let his lust show itself. And he secretly wanted Regulus to know about his deepest feelings.

The young boy agreed to every one of his touches as he had been craving them for so long. He trusted Ariel. Much more than anyone else. In his embrace he felt safe, protected, fulfilled, he could only accept to have more.

"Your body feels even hotter now, it's crazy," murmured Ariel in a hushed tone as his devouring lips were tasting the milky skin of his hip.

"You make me feel hot..." replied the boy, his voice not much louder. He was more focused on his actions than his words. It felt like he was already in another world.

Ariel smiled fondly and delicately kissed his skin. "Hm, it's so sweet.."

As desire grew between them, even turning the atmosphere of the room sultry, steaming, they finally started feeling each other closer.

Regulus had dreamed to have Ariel's hands all over him but had never thought it would be so good. He was touching him in the most delicate ways, he discovered his body and got to know it even better than Regulus himself. The boy felt things he had never felt before. Every foreign sensation Ariel was offering him was getting addictive. He accepted every gesture and couldn't help but ask for more every time. And Ariel was fulfilling every one of his requests with so much passion. Making Regulus happy was making him happy.

When the time came, Regulus accepted it. He never complained. Ariel tried to kiss his imaginable sufferance away, trying to show how much he actually cared about him. He looked so fragile in his hold. He kissed his tears away as he whispered love words, something he had never done.

'You're so beautiful...' 'It feels amazing...' 'Don't hold back, I like it...' And he thought every single thing he told him.

At some point, the younger boy started feeling more at ease. He realized how good it felt to be held like this. He felt all warm inside. Ariel was holding him with so much care and delicacy, he almost hadn't expected such gentleness. However, it wouldn't prevent him from kissing the boy roughly, swallowing his lascivious sounds when he could, even though he secretly enjoyed them.

Everything felt so much better when Ariel would caress Regulus' body. He loved his body and he tried to show him how much he did. His touch was addictive, and the blond boy adored hearing him voice it. In the heat of the moment Regulus also murmured some words that felt too natural Ariel almost didn't realize how meaningful they were.

"I love you Ariel..." spoke his husky voice between sounds of pure bliss. It was at the same moment that the pleasure accumulated in them started overflowing through their bodies.

Ariel held him so close and Regulus finally felt like they were melting against each other. The blond boy couldn't help voicing out his pleasure as well. Everything felt too perfect, much better than he had imagined it. He thought he would never be able to let him go.

They showed themselves in their rawest form and both could feel a whole new step had been taken in their relationship, a stronger link was uniting them now. Regulus knew he hadn't only given his body but also his heart to Ariel that night. And he had no regret. More than ever, he felt his.
