It was time to go back to Tairo.
Mitras couldn't wait anymore.
Fayt decided to run the dungeon a few more times, it was great xp for the group and he wanted to get a leg up. Then he would post about the dungeon in the forums.
It's been almost two months in game. He was dying to see Bjarke, but when would he have the opportunity to level like he would have now? And to level his skills.
What was more important?
That's when he decided to come back. He didn't start playing to be the best, or be the strongest. He still only had one tame. Most tamers would have the second one already.
He wanted to play the game, have fun in it, not win it. And part of it is to be with Bjarke.
-I'm sorry everyone, but I'm going back to Tairo.
-That's okay, but don't forget to go see the HQ. It's pretty cute now!
-Yeah and the workshop, you gotta make sure everything's there. Otto was the one who asked for the things but who knows, maybe you want something extra.
-O-ok, I'll be sure to go there!
The trek back to Tairo was fast, he didn't realise it but he was almost running back.
It was when he got to the gate that he realised it, because he started running.
Almost jumping Mitras goes to Bjarke.
-Damn…
Mitras says nothing, just mushes Axis between him and Bjarke. This is until Axis finally sets itself free.
-I missed you.
Without answering Bjarke yet he puts his hands under his armor and just lets his hands feel the warmth of Bjarke skin.
-H-hey, I'm working.
-J-just a little…
-Haah you.
They stay close to each other for a while. All the while some players are murmuring to each other and some females and male characters seem to be taking screenshots.
-I think that's him.
-Do you think he is Expert already?
-I want to know his skills, maybe I can copy it.
Mitras breathes deeply into Bjarke's neck.
-We'll see each other at night right?
He has never been so upfront.
-Of course Mi.
And Bjarke's smile has never been bigger.
With one deep, hungry kiss, they depart.
-I'm happy for you, but you do know you're working right?
-Yeah yeah senior you're just jealous cause you're with no one.
-W-what?! How dare you, these newbies nowadays, no respect. Let me tell you I'm a very desirable man ok!
-Ha ha ha ha ha
Happier, Mitras went to HQ to finally see it now that's ready. He prepared the key every guild member had and entered the building.
It was… Very professional. As Grant was one of the professionals that did a lot of the furniture, everything was made of wood. The first floor had a very open place so people could enter, talk, sit and just pass the time. There was a bar.
One of the doors led to the workshop, a place with various workbenches and wares, his spinner was here. There were stairs down to the forge where most of the blacksmithing happened.
The second floor were various meeting rooms and finally he found his room on the third floor. It had a bed, table and a chest, there was a lot of space to put more things. The bed was big he wasn't sure why, it was only him sleeping here.
All in all it was great. He even saw the little detail Otto put like the crochets on the windows and the little handmade lamps around the rooms. There were a lot of plants too, every room had at least a few.
Mitras threw his backpack beside his bed and threw himself and Axis on the bed.
-This is ours…
Axis as if understanding started walking all around it, on the floors, the walls, the ceiling, like it wanted to take everything.
-I know Rolling Beetles like to be underground, so I'll get a big vase with earth so you can burrow yourself in. And thank you in the mines. I don't know how did you find her, but you were amazing.
The bed was so big, maybe he should call Bjarke here with him, but he loved how close they were at the barracks bed.
Blushes.
Gotta do something, or he will think stupid things.
One skill he really needs to level is Mana Manipulation, so for these days he's going to take it easy and level that.
So he started.
Breathe in, breathe out. Calming down. Imagining the mana ants. Letting them enter his body.
This continued the whole day. He wanted to really level it.
The ants were more numerous now and felt more real. Mitras thinks this means the have more mana in each of them.
The colony was also getting bigger, it was almost getting to his center and if what the media he read and watched was right, that's is when things would get interesting.
Would he create a centerpiece? Like an inner heart or something like that? Would all skills that get to Expert have some equivalent? What will happen to dance? Or Axis’ Carapace.
Questions and questions, but he will get answers soon. He just needed to focus a little bit and then he'll also be able to teach Mana Manipulation for Bjarke and Axis.
After the session of meditation he went to the baths.
At night he met Bjarke in the barracks.
-Mi?
-Yeah?
-So I talked with the captain, I got a free day tomorrow.
-R-really?
-Wanna go on a date?
A date? He never had one!
-Yes!
-Great!
He almost couldn't sleep. Bjarke was fully asleep and here he was thinking about what they would do. Would it be weird? Would they hold hands? Will they kiss in public? They already did that, but it was at the town gate, not the middle of the town.
Mitras looked at Bjarke, his dark hair had grown, it's still short, but not a buzz cut anymore. It was soft and full, like you could lose your hand in it. He couldn't let a beard grow, so he was clean there. He could imagine his caramel eyes looking longingly at him.
Snuggling closer, sleep finally found itself in his racing mind.
-Mi? Mi? Wake up, it's lunchtime.
A soft laugh entered Mitras ears as he slowly woke up.
-Hmm?
-Gods you're a devil you know that.
-What?
-Let's have lunch. Then we can go around town.
-Ok…
Wait, lunch?
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
-Oh no!
Mitras woke up immediately.
-I messed up the date!
-Of course not, I wanted to sleep the morning too.
Bjarke was awake, sitting on the bed, his hands on Mitras legs.
-Come on, you can take a shower at the barracks bath, then we'll go on a date. Ok?
He kissed him on the cheek, mirth basically exploding from his voice.
-O-ok.
Bjarke was in his civilian clothes, which was the common clothes you can buy easily.
Mitras took a shower and got ready. Bjarke was in his room waiting and when Mitras showed up, he raised his hand.
-Let's?
Blushing, Mitras held his hand.
He never paid much attention to town, but now he did. They would walk around the plaza and the main streets, looking for a place to have lunch.
He was so happy, holding hands, walking together, hearing about the work as a guard. About the people he met and the training he still did.
They talked a little too about his… Plane.
-In my… Plane, I live alone. I have a small house I inherited and I just stay there. My life was pretty boring actually.
-What about your parents?
-They died in an accident. I got some money from the govern-kingdom, you know, because I was young. I don't spend much so I put it in a bank so it would increase in value. After years doing that, now I get a stipend every month so I can live ok.
-That sounds… Lonely.
-I'm used to it.
Bjarke tightened his hold.
-Well, not anymore, now I-I miss y-you.
-I miss you too.
He held Mitras head and kissed his lips.
They ended up eating late at a restaurant near the port. It was a simple one, but the fish was delicious.
Bjarke took Mitras to one end of the port, where there were no boats or ships and started undressing.
-W-what are you doing?
-It's okay, it's pretty empty here, I used to come here to take a swim when I could between training. Come on!
Leaving only his underwear on, he jumped in the sea.
-Come on Mi, the water is great!
What to do? What to do? Looking over his shoulder, left and right. Seeing no one… He did it. It was Bjarke, he was safe. He was happy.
He undressed and jumped as well.
The afternoon was spent in laughter and kisses and throwing water at each other. And mainly together, hugging, caressing, touching.
It was… The best of times. He was so happy to have entered the game. Best choice.
When the night started to fall, they left the water. They sat on a pier nearby trembling together.
-Are you happy?
-Happiest.
They laughed and Bjarked hugged Mitras waist bringing him close.
-I-I have a place we can go.
-Really, where?
-It's close actually…
Putting their clothes on they went out once again. To HQ.
-Wow! This is yours?
-I-It's my guild's HQ. I have a room here.
They took a shower in the HQ bathroom one at a time. It was when Bjarke entered the room drying himself that Mitras started to think about what he had done.
He brought a boy home.
He knows they slept together before, but, but, this was different, it was his room. They were alone. Bjarke was shirtless. His handsome body all for him to see. To touch. To feel.
Oh my gods Oh my gods, what to do? What to do?
Bjarke climbed up the bed.
-Are you okay?
-Y-yes.
-Come lay down then.
-O-ok
They lied down looking at each other.
Bjarke started. He brought his hand to Mitras’ waist and pulled him. The kiss was like no other. It was sweet, but there was a need in it. You could feel it in the strength he put in his pull.
-May I?
-Y-yes.
He took Mitras’ shirt off. Kissing his mouth, his chin, his neck, his neckline, the middle of his chest and then he went to a place Mitras’ didn't even know was so sensitive.
-Ah ~
A moan escaped his mouth.
He wasn't sure what was happening, but he could feel Bjarke's tongue moving frenetically. The more it moved the more he couldn't hold his voice.
Bjarke started moving again, this time he was clearly undressing himself and Mitras. Soon it was just the two of them, no clothes in between. He worked hard with his mouth, moving from the left one to the right one.
His hand squeezing Mitras’ behind.
Mitras on the other hand, could only moan and hold Bjarke's hair with one hand and scratch his back with the other.
Bjarke stopped and kissed Mitras in the mouth, pulling his body, closing the gap between them. Both of them were hard, Bjarke's dripping with excitement.
He got some of it on his fingers and moved them again to Mitras behind.
This time Mitras could hold the moan, but he held Bjarke's hair so tight he thought he got some strands off.
-Moan for me love.
That was enough. The sultry voice opened the gates. Moan and thrusts began to come from Mitras. He wanted more, more than just his fingers.
Bjarke never stopped, mouth in the front, hand in the back, and the other hand, he started pleasuring himself.
Slick wet sounds came off them besides Mitras moans.
Soon.
Soon it would end.
Ah how he wanted more.
It came with force. Drawing strokes on both bodies.
For a few seconds there were nothing but heavy breaths. But Bjarked grunted.
-Oh love.
And down he went kissing and licking Mitras body, and then, taking him in his mouth. His hand went back to his soft place behind.
Mitras saw white.
The exposure to so much, back and front was too much. He could only use his nails on Bjarke's back to show how much his body felt.
Before another release came. Bjarke raised himself up, putting both of Mitras legs on his shoulder.
He started slow, but Mitras could feel, he was thick, very thick. He held on Bjarke's neck and let him in.
The smacking was hot, sweaty and fast. Each time made Mitras full and made him want to keep being full.
Bjarkes eyes were clouded, drops falling from his chin. His chest shining with sweat.
He has never been so manly as he is now.
Mitras went for a kiss.
It didn't take long. Mitras was first, then with a grunt and a bit, it was Bjarke.
They stayed interlocked. Breathing hard, feeling each beating heart.
Bjarke held Mitras hand over his head, looking at his eyes.
He pulled out.
Mitras moaned.
-Oh love, you make me crazy, you know that?
His laugh was sexy, viril.
Mitras crossed his legs, bringing Bjarke's body smashing into his.
-Good.
Sleep soon came to both of them.
In the morning both woke up together, the afterglow clearly obvious. Bjarke with the most loving eyes he had ever had and Mitras the reddest he ever was.
-I need to go to work.
-Mmhmm.
But both stayed glued to each other.
Today would be the first day Bjarke got late to work. And his senior got more grumpy the more he looked at his face.
-Clearly something good happened.
-The best.
-Urgh…
Mitras stayed in his room, he needed to calm down after everything, but he couldn't and the only thought he had was.
-I want more
Is that okay? Could he have it?
He couldn't believe he wanted it so much.
Why couldn't Bjarke exist in real?
He couldn't stay in bed the whole day, he wouldn't let it. So eventually he started getting his things together, clothes and backpack, Axis…. Oh my god Axis saw it all!
The will to go back to bed increased, but he punched through it and left HQ.
-Mitras?
-O-otto? Hi.
-Hi what a coincidence, I was actually coming to talk to you.
-M-me?
-Yeah, I have a request, would you mind listening?
-Of course not! I'd help you with anything.
-That is sweet honey, let's go to my store then, or do you prefer it here?
-It can be there. Let's go.
