original fiction

[rivers_bend]

This woke me up this morning and made me late for work. Triple drabble, not G rated.



Alabaster column The cliché nearly slides off my tongue before I replace the whisper with your taste. Salt, something clean, and deeper, heat, pulsing not stone against my lips. I feel your want pressing back, responding to my mouth as your body quivers with stillness, awaiting permission to move.

Using my teeth, I draw your heat to the surface, denying any comparison of your skin to mineral. Cabbage roses bloom under my attentions, hot house flowers with throats open, a living tapestry, art from desire.

You neither lean nor sway towards me, yet I feel you reaching out, meeting my touch, drawing me in. Behind your back your arms sketch a graceful oval. I trace with a finger tip the line where cuffs would rest if either of us had less faith in your abilities. That curve where wrist becomes thumb, and bone pads out to muscle. Your ribs jump, catching on jagged breath, and I see your fingers stiffen, but you don’t so much as clutch more tightly where they intertwine.

I kneel and you gasp. Ignoring you, I allow my tongue to follow the line drawn by my finger. To trace it further and dip into the V between your knuckles. It’s barely there, but I feel your finger brush against my cheek. “Don’t move,” I whisper into your cupped palm as I pull away. You grow rigid with strain as I push you beyond want into need.

I stand before you, watching. Your eyes are steady on mine as they plead for more. My own need catches in my throat, boils up, weakens me. I give you what you need because I need it more, my mouth demanding on yours, demanding into yours, “touch me.” Words, muffled but understood, release you to claim me as your reward.

munhanana. sorry that was fantasic. feel all lusty and full of good/badness.
Thank u for being late for work and sharing that with us!

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

You are very welcome. It was hard to feel too bad cos the night girls were more than 10 mins late to relieve us last night. I was only 4 mins late, so they got the better end of the deal I think.

*swoons*

If I smoked, I'd be lighting up right now.

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

Then I'm glad you don't smoke, cos I'd feel horribly guilty to be contributing to tar build up ;)

Thank you, glad you like!

[dontkickmycane.livejournal.com]

Ahhhh. So, so, very, very, Um. Yeah. I'm not sure writing would be the first thing on my mind if I woke up with that in my head...:-P

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

*giggles*

um yeah. It wasn't actually hot in my head. it was just words. More poetry than plot. :)

[dontkickmycane.livejournal.com]

Ah, well then, it gained something in the translation.

[tigertrapped.livejournal.com]

Wonderful! Lyricism clad in poetry with a hardcore of kink beneath. I especially liked, hot house flowers with throats open, a living tapestry, art from desire. Beautiful. Oh, and hot!

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

That was my favourite bit too.

How happy does that comment make me? Just what I was going for :D

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

Words fail me. (In a good way.)

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

similar to my reaction to your icon... *fans self*

also, thank you. :)

[vanillafluffy.livejournal.com]

Thank you to the first comment, you're welcome to the second.

[fallen-arazil.livejournal.com]

kinky! I have a thing for stories with no names ... it gives them an almost surreal feeling if you can make it work ... which you did! I like the running comparison to marble, as well. very well done *applauds*

This appealed to me in that it started out m/m in my head and then sort of became f/f and I realised that really it could be any pairing someone wanted to make it. all purpose :D

[acidic-flower.livejournal.com]

BZUH.

:is dead:

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

I shall take that as a compliment :)

[pimpgeektag.livejournal.com]

... See icon.

Seriously.

RIP me.

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

killing off my flist will never do, then who will read my stories?

Glad you liked. I assume that's dead in a good way?

[pimpgeektag.livejournal.com]

Yes indeed. Dead in a very good way. I really adore your lyrical style.

*dies of happy*

I am petting people's words all the time and to have someone do it to me is just... Thank you! :D

[the-dystopian.livejournal.com]

...Oh. So mesmerizing and magical. I love the shapes in this -- the "graceful oval" of the lover's arms, the "V between your knuckles." The shapes give this a tangible feel and yet at the same time an artistic, almost painterly quality -- do you know what I mean? (Or perhaps I'm just being overwhelmed and silly!)

The best phrase I can come up with this is: "calligraphy of the body." Yes. That's what this story's like.

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

You give wonderful comment :D

Calligraphy of the body is exceedingly happy making.

I feel like my weakest point as a writer is description and so I am overjoyed that this has a painterly quality.

and now I am being overwhelmed.

Thank you, and come by any time, read, comment, write more fiction...

[skyblue-reverie.livejournal.com]

Oh, this is beautiful. So poetic. I love this:

Bondage without physical bonds is so hot, and you describe it in such a gorgeous way.

And it's interesting how you never specify a gender, so it really could be any pairing, as you point out. Yet somehow it feels so feminine to me. I don't know if I can pinpoint why, exactly, but it does. Which is lovely!

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

bondless bondage is my hottest hot button. I am very happy to share it. :)

Thank you for loving that line. *hugs you*

*closes mouth and wipes drool off keyboard*

I dunno where that came from and I kinda wanna know what else happens.. but whoa.. you are now also in the league with the_dystopian cause i kept reading the stories and now your story just totally killed me. I'm gone now.. thank you for pleasantly killing my mind!
^___________^
*dies a happy blushy death*

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much! to be remotely considered any where near the same league with the_dystopian is a HUGE honour.

I'm so glad you liked it! Thank you for coming along and reading!

[pipry23.livejournal.com]

I replace the whisper with your taste.

HOW DO YOU COME UP WITH THESE COMBINATIONS OF WORDS.

Cabbage roses bloom under my attentions, hot house flowers with throats open, a living tapestry, art from desire.


Dude, seriously. Wtf. How are you not making teh big moneys. That's so fucking beautiful and hot. It's got this old-fashioned, charming quality of a fucking..Bronte or something but still manages to keep me fixed on now. Mmmph.

I give you what you need because I need it more

Oh. Lovely. *pets*

fleh. You knock my socks off so hard, lady. *GOES BACK FOR MORE*

[rivers-bend.livejournal.com]

I kind of dreamed this one. the words of it. I'm not sure. but I woke up and the whole alabaster bit was there.

I am making some moneys. I got $50 (or will get if they ever sort out publishing it) for the blindfold one and $100 for This one (http://rivers-bend.livejournal.com/87725.html#cutid1). but lots of moneys would be excellent.

[pipry23.livejournal.com]

Uh you need to lend me your brain if you have dreams like this. Although I do have dreams about Jensen and mechanical buffalos. (and Jelloh! but not on the same night LMAO. and not porny. The jensen one was porny.)

That's so awesome that you've gotten money for your writing!!! You deserve billions. KEEP WRITING FOREVER. I wrote a novel last year, and published it through a website, although it's not available yet..and I don't get any of the money. *shakes head*

My next goal is to read the fic you got $100 for :) I'm behind on my flist/comments/everything right now.
