This came to me and I need to tell you
Sniper!Simon is starting to clicker train Grace with the goal in mind to keep him from working 36 hours a time or just, not taking any care for 12 hours.
He comes up to Grace's lab and Grace is deep into his research, sitting at his desk muttering, thinking. Simon approaches the desk, finds himself a good chair to sit on, takes the clicker into his hand and gives his first command:
āDrop it.ā Grace drops the samples unthinkingly on the table, immediately. Click!
āTurn around.ā Ryland swivels around on his chair, still mostly in thought. Nonetheless, there's a click!
āStand between my legs.ā Simon's voice gets fonder as he sees realisation bloom on Grace's face. He tries to be pissed at being disturbed for a half second but that doesn't last long in the wake of Simons success. The moment Ryland stands between his legs there's another click! and
āDrop to you knees.ā click!
Grace looks beautiful like this. Looking up to him, with a blooming blush on the apples of his cheeks. Hands on his legs, waiting for the next command. Exactly how he trained him to. Simon had planned to wait longer but the way Ryland listened to him is unprecedented. That needs to be rewardedā¦ Click!
āGet my dick.ā Grace nearly chokes on his spit, so deep did he fall into watching Simon's facial expressions. And as he opens his leather pants he nearly chokes again because click!
āHold it.ā he has Simon's dick in his hand already. Ryland looks up with a question in his eyes and click!
āHold me in your mouth, Grace.ā Simon is dizzy with the speed at which blood rushes to his dick. And it doesn't get better when the velvety heat of Ryland's mouth envelops him more and more. He doesn't choke too much but Simons isn't fully hard yet either so there's a click! and
āStay.ā Grace breathes out in a heavy sigh and closes his eyes for a moment.
When he opens them again to look at Simon, he doesn't even register the click! anymore. Tears of exhaustion well up in his eyes and battle their way down his cheeks with tears of relief. After the first well of tears, Rylands expression clears up and he looks at Simon with an awe that deepens into such a loving devotion that Simon nearly looks away.
Something in him gets rearranged quickly and quietly. It was long in the works and Simon isn't surprised at the fact but at the all-encompassing deepness it rings with in his heart.
While Grace enters Subspace and falls deeper and deeper, Simon grapples with the fact that this is his person. His loyalty, his devotion, his care: it all flows between them now.
And he will take care of Grace. It's his honor and his privilege and- Rylands' head is resting on Simons abs in such a way that Simon can feel his breathing change.
Grace has fallen asleep, and not the light kind. He's had to be more stressed in here than Simon anticipatedā¦ now they are in Grace's lab, with Grace kneeling on the floor and cockwarming his favorite bodyguards' cock without knowing when Ryland will wake up again.
Simon wants to be annoyed but he can not hold on to that emotion for long.
Grace trusts him, more than ever before. That clicker training was better than anything else. Before today, Grace was never so shame-freed having sex outside of their bedroom. And he fell asleep on him, trusting him to hold him and the situation afloat.
Simon's dick twitches in Ryland's throat as a tear rolls down his face. He kisses his fingertips and presses them on his Graces forehead.
(later, when Stratt tells Ryland he must go on the ship. There will be hell to raise before he goes alone. As in: alone without Simon. Simon can look very scary when he wants to (which is nearly never btw just to be very clear)
He won't realize it for a long time to come but this. This right here was the moment he decided to be Graces. That he not only fell for him but chose to be his.)
āØš
is that anything idk hhh I'm now emotional again
well i already told you how much i love this but imma say it again: JESUS FUCKING CHRIST THIS IS MAKING ME FERAL.
"is that anything" brother this is EVERYTHING.
i love them so much it hurts actuallyā¦ simon knows exactly what ryland needs and when he need it, he knows him so well. ryland is an open book, sure, but nobody gets him like simon does. nobody takes care of him like simon does.
theyāre so grateful to have each other and simon thanks a god he isnāt sure he still believes in for putting ryland on his path, and prays every night that nothing and no one could take him away.
