Leonard had changed the music coming from the comm station from the traditional Christmas songs to soft, low instrumentals, and the cabin's lights had been turned down, allowing the tall, glowing tree to be viewed in its full, illuminated glory. The only other noticeable light was that coming from the crackling flames of the fireplace. While putting the dishes away, Leonard had happened upon an unopened bottle of merlot that had been spent these many years in the wine cooler. David McCoy had been quite the connoisseur, and Leonard was certain this was a wine that should be saved for a very special occasion. He couldn't believe there would ever come a time that would be more special than this evening. He uncorked it and poured out a small amount into one of the wine glasses stored in the rack beneath the cooler. It was grand. Rich and woody, just sweet enough keep it from being too tart, and he swore he tasted the faintest hint of raspberries. 'Here's to you, Dad,' he thought, as he downed the last of the sample. Taking the wine over to the table beside the couch, he was pleased when even Spock and Sarek agreed to share a glass. He handed a glass to both Spock and Jim, who were seated on the couch, and he took the other two to the deep, cushioned window seat set within the bay window, where Sarek was sitting. When everyone was served, Leonard raised his glass. "Here's to fate," he saluted. "Fate, Bones? Isn't that a rather ominous toast?" Jim asked. "Not at all, Jim. Haven't you ever heard that fate is jealous of lovers? If you don't give her the recognition she demands, she'll seek revenge." "Then by all means, let's *not* tempt fate," Jim smiled, as he raised his glass and tuned to give his lover an admiring wink. "Here's to fate, and to us all," Jim added. They all saluted in agreement and took a sip of the wine. Following the impromptu toast, there was a moment of uncomfortable silence that seemed to descend upon the group. This was about the most romantic setting Leonard had ever been in, yet it seemed no one was quite sure just how to handle that. Spock seemed reticent to show his feeling in front of his father, and Jim, Leonard assumed, was still remembering the conversation earlier in the day, and didn't want to do anything to make his friend feel uncomfortable. Surprisingly, it was Sarek who came to the rescue. Leonard was still standing between the table and the bay window when Sarek reached for his hand. Turning so the cushions propped against the wide frame supported his back, he pulled one leg up on the seat. Although the seat was plenty deep enough to sit side-by-side, he urged Leonard to sit between his legs. Scooting himself between Sarek's thighs, he felt strong, warm arms surround him as he leaned back against Sarek's chest. When he turned to smile up at Sarek, out of the corner of his eye, Leonard noticed that his friends had moved to the same end of the couch, and Jim was nestled within Spock's arms, a passionate kiss was being shared between them. There was a level of comfort that had long ago been reached where the two bondmates would often show signs of affection in Leonard's presence. As a matter of fact, Spock was the one who often instigated the romantic touches with his bondmate. He was, indeed, a hot-blooded Vulcan, and Leonard, more often than not, took those opportunities to tease him about being on the proverbial, never-ending honeymoon. When Sarek began tracing his ear with his lips, Leonard decided that father and son were a lot more alike than either one would ever be willing to admit. Leaning his head against Sarek's shoulder, they looked outside where the full moon illuminated the white landscape. "I told you it was beautiful here," Leonard whispered. "You did, indeed," Sarek replied, pulling up the fabric of Leonard's thin T-shirt--all he'd needed since the cabin was being kept so warm--and running his hands down his lover's chest, tweaking the nipples to full arousal, and making it quite clear what it was about the cabin that he found most beautiful. Leonard, who before this time together had never considered himself worthy of such accolades, felt himself flush at the compliment. The scenery outside forgotten, Leonard turned in the arms, slid his hand around Sarek's neck, and captured the sweet, warm mouth. Although the windows were insulated and the inside remained as warm as the air in the cabin, it wasn't long before the outside of the multi-layered glass had started to steam over. The mellow strains of the orchestral music were soon joined by the sounds of soft, sucking kisses, short gasps of air, and whispered names of lovers, coming from two different areas of the cabin. Sarek erection was pressing against Leonard's hip, and every so often his lover would briefly push forward to feed his need for increased pressure. When Sarek slid his hand inside Leonard's lightweight jogging pants and began to fondle his erection, Leonard glanced over Sarek's shoulder, finding himself briefly embarrassed, and wanting to make sure they weren't being observed. What he saw in the soft shadows was Spock's hand combing through Jim's hair, while Jim's head moving steadily up and down on Spock's exposed erection. Had there been an ounce of voyeurism in him, that picture would have brought him over, for sure. Returning his full attention to his lover, he ran his hand under Sarek's shirt and began to tease the extremely sensitive, hardened pips. Taking Sarek's cue, Leonard had forgone any restrictive underwear after their shower, and Sarek eased the flexible waistband down far enough to free Leonard's cock. "You surprise me," Leonard whispered, finding himself extremely aroused at being so exposed. "How so?" Sarek nibbled into his ear. "Being so openly sexual." Leonard thrust his hips toward the fist encasing the head of his cock. "Does it disturb you? I forget that Humans have such parochial attitudes when it comes to sexuality." Leonard grinned. "You mean Vulcan's don't?" "I thought you would have been around Spock long enough to learn that sexuality is considered a natural function between partners, that the denial of such is illogical, and the expression of it, in the appropriate setting, is quite acceptable. This, I believe, is a most appropriate setting." Leonard had always thought Spock being the aggressor, especially in his presence, had just been a wanton characteristic of his friend's human side that had somehow managed to escape. Obviously, that wasn't the case. "Guess I missed the finer point of that lesson," Leonard hissed, as he reached between them and untied the string to Sarek's soft pants and freed his lover's cock, as well. They kissed and massaged each other, each almost reaching the point of no return before being soothed back by their lover time and time again. It was torturous, dizzying, bliss. "Jim," was whispered into the darkness, and the soft, muted, erotic moans of Spock's climax caused a shutter to run through Leonard. He grasped his arms tightly around Sarek's neck and breathed, "Oh, god! I'm gonna cum," as he felt the first contraction in his groin building. Sarek applied pressure to the base of his cock, and eased him back with his mind. //Not yet, my ashaya...but soon...very soon...// his lover soothed. It took a few seconds, but Leonard's imminent need to release abated. It wasn't long before they heard the snapping sounds of Spock and Jim releasing the hidden latches that would convert the couch to a bed. It seemed to signal the time Leonard had waited for all day. He pulled his waistband up over his straining cock, as Sarek retied the string of his trousers. Rising, he held out his hand to Sarek and led him to the farthest corner of the cabin. Before undressing, he remembered to gather the sheets, blankets, and pillows that Jim and Spock would need. He took them to the couch and laid them on the high back as his friends were pushing the foot of the bed into place. When he returned, Sarek had already dispensed with his sweater, shirt, and boots, and was beginning to remove his trousers. This time, Leonard just stood back and watched. To see the man strip down with such abandon was almost an orgasmic experience in itself. Leonard pulled off his T-shirt, stepped out of his slippers, and started to slide his pants down when he realized that they were missing one necessary ingredient for a night of lovemaking. They had not needed it the night before, but he didn't want to wait for one to get the other off before they could be joined, and lube wasn't something he hadn't even remotely considered when he was packing. In the muted light, Sarek moved toward him, pulling him into his arms. "Why have you stopped disrobing?" he whispered. "Umm...I think we're gonna to need something...lubricant. I didn't think to come prepared. I did pack a bottle of oil for the salad, I could get it," Leonard whispered. Sarek reached down and caressed the length of Leonard's cock through the fabric as their lips brushed together, suppressing the gasp that would have escaped from Leonard, otherwise. "I believe that would be wise," he replied through what was certainly a grin. Leonard wished it were light enough in the room to once again see that beautiful face lit with a smile. "I'll be right back," he breathed. Leonard crept to the kitchen area and rummaged through one of the cabinets, searching for the small bottle that he knew he had put in there earlier in the day. The oil wasn't exactly ideal, but it was non-irritating, and it would serve the purpose. "Looking for something, Bones?" he heard Jim ask. Glancing up, cautiously at first, he saw Jim seated on the edge of the converted bed, pulling off his socks. "Sorry, I'll be outta here in just a second," Leonard replied, pushing his hand further into the cabinet. Jim leaned over and took something from the daypack that was lying at the side of the converted couch. "Here," he said, "I think this will work better," he said, tossing something toward the kitchen counter. Leonard reached up and grabbed it as it sailed toward him, the light from the fireplace glinting off the silver cylinder. It was a tube of lubricant. There was certainly no need in trying to deny what he'd been looking for. "Thanks," Leonard grinned sheepishly. Knowing he was blushing from head to toe, he turned it over in his palm. "You didn't bring extra clothes, but you packed a tube of this?" Leonard asked. "Never leave home without it," Jim smiled, as he rose and pulled off his shirt. "But don't you need..." "I always carry extra," Jim stated. Leonard nodded his gratitude before returning to the corner where the bed was located. He could make out the shape of Sarek already lying under the covers. Leonard laid the tube on the table beside the bed, slid out of the pants, and under the thick layer of quilts. Wasting no time, he gathered his lover into his arms and rolled them over so he was lying on top, their erections meeting at the same moment as their mouths. Pushing their hips repeatedly toward each other, they ground their organs between them, their bodies searching for quick release, each pulling back when it threatened. "Did you locate the oil?" Sarek rasped. "Better. Jim gave me some lubricant," Leonard panted, retrieving the tube. Sarek spread his thighs and pulled his knees up. "Prepare me, my Leonard," he whispered. It was almost a plea. Leonard uncapped the tube and spread some of the slick substance on his fingertips. He rubbed his fingers together as it began to warm, and rising to his knees, he located the small, puckered opening and began to push the lubricant into it. As his fingers began to penetrate the ring of muscle, he felt it begin to relax. Leonard pulled his fingers out and came to his knees between Sarek's thighs. He didn't have to ask; he knew Sarek was ready to receive him. With his still-slick fingers, he smoothed the lubricant across the head and around the shaft of his cock. He felt Sarek's urgency to be penetrated, just as his lover could feel his own burning desire to be surrounded. Their bodies hungered to be joined, but even more, their souls seemed to cry out to one another. Leonard positioned himself and slid inside. As he laid down on Sarek and gathered him into his arms, Sarek's fingers found his meld points. "Are you certain?" he whispered before entering Leonard's mind. "Yes," Leonard panted. "I've never been as certain of anything." Without resistance, Sarek's consciousness flowed effortlessly into him, joining them completely. The link that had already started to form between them was unequivocal, and Leonard wondered how he could have been so unaware of it. He was at home, and he was making a home for Sarek within him. They belonged together, they belonged to each other, they were whole. Body and soul expanded until there were no boundaries that existed between the two. Their senses rose to a heightened state of excitability, far beyond what was possible in the corporeal world. It was as if together they could feel the golden aura that surrounded them; hear the essence of their combined spirit; taste the flames that wove endlessly between them. Time had no value, there was no future, no past, as it was no longer linear, but spherical, and it spun around them, encircling them, leaving them with only here and now. The bed they were laying on was a raft, and they were afloat in the universe. Their desires were the very fabric of space, and their love the flux that was holding it together. They burned, and cooled, and burned again, as the waves of pleasure rushed over them, then receded, only to roll across them once more. The very polarity of their existence was being drawn together, and Leonard knew that once they were united, they would forever cease to be two individuals. But at the last moment everything around them stopped. Sarek's soul was no longer inside him, but hovering above him in the vastness of their universe, a perfect parallel to his own. Close, so very close, threads joining them, but separate. Slowly, Leonard once again started to feel self-aware, and it seemed that Sarek was moving away from him. He wanted to reach out for him and pull him back inside, but the threads that joined them kept his arms bound at his sides. He wanted to cry out against the emptiness. //Don't leave me...I will be lost!// his mind shouted. Only when he heard // Do not fret, my ashaya, I am here. I will always be here...// whispered from Sarek's soul to his, did he know that he was not alone. He would never again be alone. He allowed himself to bathe in the warmth of Sarek's presence. As Sarek pulled them back from the meld, Leonard became aware of the weight of his lover on top of him, the sensation of fullness inside of him, and the taste of cinnamon, and copper, and salt, and iron that was blended in the moisture between them. How they ended up this way, he didn't know. It didn't matter. Leonard knew that when he found the ability to speak again, he wanted to discuss what they had experienced, but then realized there were no words to describe it. It was. That was all. Their breathing slowed. Sarek pulled out and Leonard rolled to lie on his chest. What was left between them was strong. //Thee has lied to me, my ashaya.// Leonard heard, as strong hands rubbed up and down his back. //About?// his mind questioned. //I believe this place gets it name less from the natural sources of water, and more from the sound this bed makes during intercourse.// Sarek smiled into his thoughts. Leonard turned his head and pressed his lips against a taunt nipple. There was no need to answer. Sarek knew. Relaxing again on Sarek's chest, Leonard opened his eyes. The fire had grown less intense--obviously they had been making love for several hours--and the only illumination in the room was from the multicolored lights that still glowed from the tree. There were no wrapped boxes underneath, but the precious gifts on this Christmas weren't the kind that could be purchased from any shop. Leonard knew that he could have wished to stay here, wrapped in these arms, forever. He was glad that they had several more days together before having to return to San Francisco, but even knowing that they would eventually have to return couldn't dampen his spirits. Not now that they had found each other. Sure, he knew that in just three weeks they had the training mission coming up, but that would only be a temporary separation. From a distance there could be heard the sound of gentle scraping as the feet of the converted bed abraded rhythmically against the wooden floor, the high back of the couch serving as the only barrier between the sets of lovers. Leonard snuggled against Sarek, and knew he was a very lucky man, indeed. They all were. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Yahoo!
