#elexlysander

"L-Lys ..." she whispered and was interrupted by a shake of his head, since he didn't want to disturb her. She gently took one of his hands in hers and intertwined their fingers together. "Today was a beautiful day" Elex spoke up again at last. "The tour of the farm was fun and the children looked so happy. It was nice to walk with you in amoris .... Just like the old days. I guess I really could have done without Amber, though." She could hear him laughing softly behind her and had to smile herself at her comment. "But that neither you nor Castiel told me about your meetings, however, is still making me angry. You've certainly been exchanging ideas behind my back." "No, he always looked out for you on my behalf when he could. And maybe sent a photo or two." "WHAT?" She tried to turn around in shock to see if it was meant as a joke, but Lysander held her in place. "Nothing embarrassing, really! But he's just seen you for the last two years unlike me." He was right about that, of course. His best friend would take her to concerts every now and then when he was in the area, and out of that grew a friendship of his own over time. With him, she could let out her frustration after a beer or two, if a meeting failed again. But Castiel could easily be in another place the next day, Lysander could not. "I hadn't thought of that, sorry." Instead of an answer, she felt him shake his head again and give her a kiss on the shoulder. "I... really enjoyed the time with you today. Here at the farm, talking in the car, and in amoris. It felt so easy, like old and new puzzle pieces of our lives were coming together. When you told me that you were taking over the farm, I thought at first that it would not suit you. That it would cut the wings of your freedom. But instead I saw that here you can fully express yourself and yet you are not completely out of the world. And I... like being here, with you."

Lysander buried himself in the crook of her neck, which he gently covered with kisses. "It's so nice to finally have you here..." With his free hand, he slowly stroked her belly and under her top, making her suck in her breath slowly. Fingertips carefully traced their way under her breast, exploring every inch of her once familiar body. His mouth, meanwhile, traveled along the crook of her neck toward her ear. Elex leaned against him, enjoying his every touch. For the past two days, they had kissed and touched fleetingly, but it felt as if there was an unspoken boundary between them. His hand wrapped around her breast, which he slowly but firmly embraced. When she squeezed his hand in hers, it seemed to unsettle Lysander, so he pulled away. "We should sleep before the sun rises again soon." His voice sounded uncertain, almost frightened by what had just happened. "Lysander?" Elex straightened up and knelt between his legs. Knowing he couldn't avoid her like that, he just nodded in response. Her arms wrapped around his neck before she seriously sought eye contact with him. "Why have we been sneaking around each other since yesterday, as if any intimate touch is taboo? I feel like no matter who makes the first move, you're still going to vehemently push me away at some point." She could see from his face, that he felt caught.

That this whole situation was strange for both of them was something she was aware of, and not the reason she asked for an explanation. "This... has nothing to do with you, believe me. I didn't mean to hurt you in any way, but now I think I've done just the opposite. I'm sorry..." He sighed before continuing. "I've had a hard time putting this all together. You just got here and we're getting to know each other again in a way. So sometimes it just felt wrong to treat you the way I used to, to touch you, to kiss you. Not because I didn't want to, but because bit by bit I am falling in love with the Elex now. And that's the one I didn't want to make feel like I was only interested in her body." Elex pulled him by the back of his neck in her direction to give him a light head butt. At the same time, during his monologue, her heart had leapt several times with happiness and affection towards him. Playfully contrite and with her eyes closed, she set to reply. "You are an idiot ... You know? I should actually be mad at you right now for worrying too much. But I also know that you did all this out of consideration for me, and I love you for that again." Slowly, a smile returned to both of their faces. Lysander looked up and straight into her eyes, which told him that she too felt a yearning. "I can assure you that I definitely did not have only innocent thoughts." Meanwhile, his arms ran over her thighs. Elex understood his gesture and repositioned herself, sitting down on his lap. As they did so, they both maintained eye contact to assure themselves that the other agreed. "Actually, I had a lot of thoughts like that.... That first night when we were in the kitchen. The next morning, when you were still sleepily snuggled against me. When you were feeding the chickens in your old ripped shirt and shorts. And your outfit today was definitely the most challenging .... ". At the last comment, he tightened his grip and pulled her lower body to him; his voice was now just a whisper. "I hope you realize what you're unleashing in me." Elex hands clasped his face and brushed aside a strand of his hair. A wide smile flitted across her face, spreading to Lysander. "Words should be followed by actions. " With that, she had erased the last remnant of reserve that had slowed him down.

Their lips found each other for a long kiss, which he used to stroke her back and hold her tightly against him. This was reality. Not a dream born out of his longing. Elex's hands, now running across the back of his neck, confirmed this. Detaching himself from her for a moment, he lifted her top, whereupon she raised her arms and looked at him expectantly. Piece by piece, he freed her from the silky fabric to look at her naked torso. With that, he also revealed that there was more hidden beneath the moon tattoo in her cleavage. From her breastbone, vines decorated her lower chest with intricate ornaments. Elex watched as he traced along with his fingers between her breasts, taking in this change. While one hand caressed her breast, the other clasped her cheek to engage her in another kiss. Lysander took his time to savor the moment to the fullest, kissing her slowly and deeply. he registered how the tension of the last time fell off him and instead a pleasant certainty spread. He wanted her, now. Just as there had always been only her in his heart. Two years had not changed that; on the contrary.

Elex dragged him along with her as she fell backwards from his lap onto the bed. Now kneeling over her, his hands began to roam over her torso. Starting at her hip, his fingertips stroked up to her breasts, which he gently massaged. As he turned his attention to her nipples, she sucked in a deep breath and wrapped her arms around him. Strands of white hair fell on her pale body as his fingers were followed by lips that caressed her. In response, she squeezed him tighter and couldn't suppress a sigh. Spurred on by this, he let his tongue circle over this her nipple before moving further up to her neck. Elex impatiently pulled him further up to lose himself in a passionate kiss. He let her guide him so that his bare chest touched hers. She realized how much she had missed this familiar intimacy and wrapped her arms around him even tighter. Lysander let go of her for a moment to look at her and grab her waist as he pressed himself against her. Under his watchful gaze, she raised her own hips and began to claw into his back. A guttural moan echoed through the room before Lysander buried himself in the crook of her neck. He breathed heavily as his hands continued to press their bodies together. Knowing she was sensitive there, his teeth trailed along her ear, playfully biting her earlobe as he pressed against her again. In a frantic movement, he straightened up and grasped the waistband of her shorts to remove that troublesome fabric between them. She barely realized that he had pulled down her slip as well when she felt her legs spread and his mouth placed itself between them. She resisted the reflex to put her hand in front of her mouth when his tongue hit her most sensitive spot. Instead, she let her lust run wild and buried her hands in the covers. Lysander enjoyed seeing his girlfriend at his mercy and knowing at the same time that she wanted more. Her body rose up to meet him on its own and shuddered briefly as two fingers sank into her. "L-Lys..." he heard her gasp as she writhed back and forth. He had seemingly found a rhythm that matched her desire. Her hands clawed tightly into his hair, literally begging him not to stop. Her gasps were interrupted irregularly by curses and calling his name, until she arched up in a short, violent gasp. Her head felt completely empty at that moment , so that she didn't even notice how her body started to tremble. Lysander straightened up to lie next to her and wrapped his arms around his girlfriend while the waves of orgasm were still washing over her. It was Elex who pulled him close again and kissed him.

She held him by the back of the head and looked at him unwaveringly as her other hand ran over his boxers. Now he twisted his face in arousal, as every touch on her part made his desire shoot up immeasurably. While one hand set about finally undressing him completely, the other took care to completely embrace and run along his length. " Dammit I want you so bad" he murmured before stripping himself of the garment and reached for his nightstand drawer. Elex buried her face in the covers for a moment to process this confession. She loved that bold, direct manner about him as much as she loved his otherwise gentle nature. And also that he'd opened up like that around her. "Me too." Lysander leaned into the pillows with his back and grabbed her hand to guide her in his direction. She placed herself on his lap again, noticing how hard his erection felt against her. Arms wrapped around his neck as she raised up and touched his forehead with hers. The moment as she took him in felt like it was happening in slow motion. Her focus was on his breathing, deep and controlled, which made it clear again that they both couldn't wait to get lost in this feeling. As Elex began to move her hips on him, she felt his hands stroking her body. On her thighs, her back, her chest. Each touch brought their heated bodies even closer together and yet it didn't seem to be enough. The rhythm of their movements increased, ensuring that Lysander now countered the pressure by holding her by the waist. It overwhelmed her at that moment how deep she felt him inside and how much pleasure it gave her. With her head in his neck, she urged him through her own squirming motions to take the lead. A single hard thrust on his part pressed her against him and she buried herself in his back, searching for support. Over and over again, he lifted her hips up, only to press himself fully into her in the next instant. Her hands clawed into him to absorb the intensity of his thrusts. It was almost an agonizing sensation to anticipate their mutual release. As her climax approached, she put her head to his ear. "Lys-ander," her voice faltered as she twitched and clung to him with all her might. All she could think of was finding release with him. I made feel like her going insane to long for that moment. Lysander himself responded to her begging by gripping her body and pressing into her fast and hard. Her body tensed up by the intensity of this sensation and made her hold her breath. He held her tightly against him in the next instant while writhing from his own climax. 

They both stopped for a moment so that their pulses could at least calm down a bit. His hands were still sunken into the skin of her thighs, that couldn’t stop twitching from the intense pleasure he gave her. Lysander was the first to start moving, caressing her back. His heart pounded wildly in his chest as she snuggled against him and closed her eyes. She felt completely at ease and happy to be with him. "On one hand, I just want to jump up and scream out how much I love you. But at the same time, I don't want to let you go either." He admitted with a smile as he stroked through her hair. "You might as well tell me now before you scare the animals outside." "By the time of day or my nudity?" While Elex laughed warmly at the notion, he looked at her dumbfounded. Because to him she was never more beautiful than now with disheveled hair, a sweaty body, but an honest smile on her face. He bumped her nose to meet her gaze before speaking up again. "I love you, Elex." In his voice was no hesitation, but pure warmth. There was thus no reason for her heart to slow down in any way. "And I love you, Lys." As soon as she uttered it, her lips were tenderly taken by his, but there was also no resistance on her part. Playfully, she bit his lower lip and intensified the kiss, whereupon his tongue found hers. Elex, broke away from him gasping. Looking at her with a mixture of curiosity and uncertainty, he continued to hold her close in an embrace. "Is it still worth thinking about sleep?" Lysander cupped her cheeks with his hands and kissed her fleetingly. "Realistically, we should. But ... I don't think we care much about that right now." Her mischievous smile spread wider. "Then give me what I want, or I'll give it to myself." He kissed her again, passionately this time, and dropped her on the bed beneath him. "Anything you want. After all, I haven't had enough of you screaming my name when you're in ecstasy.”

As soon as he had uttered this remark, she had dipped her left hand into the bowl and was running it over his lips. "Then let me taste it, too." Her hands cupped Lysander's cheeks and pulled them down to her. Looking for support from the sudden movement, he grabbed the counter with both hands while his upper body was pressed against his girlfriend. She kissed him timidly on the mouth at first, so that their lips barely touched. At the same time, due to her tight grip, he could neither resist nor kiss her more intimately. After another fleeting touch, she ran her tongue over her lips and looked thoughtfully to the side. "Sweet... And I know for a fact that I'll be blushing bright red when Rosa and Leigh come over for brunch tomorrow. I'll be thinking about this about this while we're eating the leftovers." She turned back to her partner and they exchanged a conspiratorial look. Her teeth dug into her lower lip before she turned to whisper in his ear. "But then, it shall be worth it." Barely uttered, her lips met his again, this time more greedy and demanding. He let her have her way, surrendering to their shared lust. Hands wandered to his neck to grasp it, while she pressed against him at the same time, trying to get away from the counter. In a brief moment when they separated, Lysander grasped her thighs to encourage her to jump up. Immediately she crossed her legs behind him and devoted herself to his lips again. This time it was his lower lip she bit, causing him to suck in a sharp breath. "Into the bedroom, now."

Her commanding tone left no room for discussion, but that was exactly the dominant nature he wanted to provoke from her. The stairs seemed endless to him, mostly because Elex had buried herself in the crook of his neck. As her fingers ran through his hair, his neck was covered in kisses and he pressed her body against himself with each step. Once he reached the top, he let himself fall backwards onto the bed with her. She was now sitting on top of him. Slowly she straightened up and focused her weight on her lower body, pressing against him once again. His hands reached for hers to intertwine them as he defenselessly let her move her hips on him. A low moan escaped him and in turn he arched up to increase the friction. Elex placed his hands around her hips so that he could set the rhythm.

When Josiane died a short time after her husband and Lysander took over his parents' farm, it also meant that the distance between them became even greater and it was hardly worth it for Elex to come over on a weekend. When he realized this, the two made another promise to each other. Earlier, they had exchanged rings to always be reminded of each other and to use it as a protection against flirting attempts if necessary. Lysander gently took his girlfriend's hands in his and stroked her ring before he began to speak. "Promise me that we will always be honest with each other, no matter what. Even if one of us might find someone new." "Lysander, this-" "Please. Let's be realistic. I don't want us to get attached and lie to each other at some point." He looked serious, even though he knew at the time that it would tear his heart apart knowing that distance was the only thing separating the two of them. His jealousy from school days, on the other hand, had given way to a security he had built through the relationship. He knew that Elex never looked at anyone as radiantly as he did and didn't even notice advances from others.But maybe it was better if she didn't have to ride for hours in a train to him and instead jumped into a new adventure, without him.

Elex rang the bell again before reaching for her cell phone and trying to call Lysander. From inside, she could hear his cell phone; he must have forgotten to take it with him in his hurry. "What am I doing now?" she muttered to herself, unconsciously pushing against the front door, which opened in response. Another carelessness that would quickly cost him dearly in the city. Should she just go inside? He knew, after all, that Rosa had brought her here, and would certainly not want his girlfriend to wait in front of the door forever. Still, she felt like a burglar taking the first steps into his apartment. "Lysander, are you there? The door was open...". Again, no response followed her calls. Thereupon, she left her suitcase in the living room and explored the house in search of him. Much had changed since she had once visited here when Lysander's parents were still alive. Everything was comfortably furnished and yet carried his signature. His notebook was always within reach on the coffee table, some of the furniture was definitely antique, and his bed looked as dreamy as he was because of the canopy and the many draped pillows. He had already been organized back then, even if he admitted to having tidied up the one or other time shortly before her visit. But since there was still no trace of the white-haired man, Elex left the house in the direction of the vegetable garden. Between the many individual beds stood a scarecrow, which she looked at with a grin. Had he made it himself? He had already been talented with his hands, so that it could have been created in his childhood. However, it didn't really fit into her imagination to see her boyfriend working here; after all, as a teenager he wanted to get away from the rural life of his parents. Could he manage to take care of everything on his own?

At her feet, she now also noticed a couple of rabbits tending to the weeds. One of them, with black spots on its ears, seemed particularly curious and hopped in her direction. "Do you want to tell me your name?" she asked as she leaned down to the little creature. "I named it Rosa. You'll see what quantities of food it eats..." A deep voice sounded behind her. In a flash she turned around and looked into the shyly smiling face of Lysander. He was standing only a few steps away from her and was finally within reach again. His hair was noticeably longer than the last time they had met and tied into a braid. He didn't seem as skinny as before, mostly due to the farm work. But his melancholic gaze that rested on her was still the same as it had been then. "Do you still remember our first date? Rosa ate so much that day that she upset her stomach." he continued. "And today Bunny Rosa had problems so I couldn't pick you up. I'm really sorry." "Hey, if one of the animals is sick, you should take care of it as soon as possible. I'm not mad with you at all. Rosa and I had a lot of time to talk about old times and updated each other instead." He sighed in relief, as it seemed she'd had an entertaining car ride to say the least, though he would have preferred to be able to greet his girlfriend four hours ago instead of having spent the time at a vet's office. "You're probably pretty hungry from the whole drive, though, aren't you? At least I brought us some food" Lysander replied, holding up a paper bag. As he did so, he took an uncertain step toward her. It was almost as if he didn't dare to approach Elex, to reach out and touch her. The latter meanwhile ignored all her concerns and embraced him vigorously.

The next moment she also felt his hands on her back, pressing her body tightly against his. It felt surreal for both of them to be so close to each other again after all this time. Not to be separated by a screen, but to feel the warmth of the other through genuine contact. Lysander's hands gently cupped her cheeks to lift her head and gently plant a kiss on her forehead. Just as he had always done in the past when she was within reach. For her part, Elex wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned forward until their lips touched. At first it was just a fleeting kiss, but it became passionate and full of desire in no time. Lysander could not resist the temptation to grab her thighs in the meantime to lift her up slightly. All doubts were wiped out in that moment, instead they literally fell over each other, like before, at the beginning of their relationship. Completely out of breath, they disengaged from each other and looked into the other's flushed face. "I... um... That was..." began Elex to stutter."I'm so glad you're here." Lysander replied smiling. His joy was now reflected in her face as well. "Yes..." Their moment was interrupted by a rustle, as little Rosa nibbled on the dropped bag. "We should eat something real instead of each other, don't you think?" Elex face only reddened from his remark, as she was not used to hearing such direct statements from her boyfriend. In one smooth motion, he bent down to the paper bag and placed a hand around her waist to lead her inside. "Have you been waiting long for me?" Lysander pointed to her suitcase as he walked through the living room. The large open space with a white country kitchen that had hosted many guests over the years now looked huge as its new owner stood in it. "No, I was just looking for you in the house and then headed toward the garden." Elex put her bag on one of the kitchen stools and sat down in the seat next to it as he got plates and cutlery ready. "We got some vegetable muffins, spreads, and...the bread!" Cupboard doors were frantically yanked open until he shamefully placed a package of crackers on the kitchen counter. "I'm really sorry to mess up our reunion dinner like this, but this is the only thing I can offer you." "Don't worry so much, I'm sure it will still taste good." She courageously grabbed a slice, coated it with one of the spreads, and took a bite. "Crispy, but delicious." He did the same and agreed. "Would you like wine with that? I don't know your taste, but it's light and fruity." She nodded and pushed her glass in his direction. "Sure, that would go well."

She tried to ignore his remark, although he was right, of course. Back then, they had drunk punch together for the first time on Iris' birthday, or a beer here and there at a party. They realized that opening a bottle of wine seemed much more mature in contrast. "Well then... A toast! A toast to crackers!" As they raised their glasses to toast, they both had to laugh at what turned out to be a very impromptu meal. For most of the rest of the meal, they looked at each other and remained silent. While cleaning up the leftovers, Lysander was the one who spoke up again. "Do you actually think Rosa has changed a lot?" His girlfriend took a sip from her glass before answering. "Her hair is shorter, but she's still as full of energy as ever. Unlike me..." "Are you telling me you're not as full of energy as you used to be?" He sat back down across from her and reached for her hand. "I don't know. I used to stick my nose everywhere and tried to help everyone. Then came university and everything became more anonymous. And more time-consuming. I couldn't go around daydreaming anymore and solving problems." "But I always liked about you that you cared about others... Things have changed for me as well since moving here. Here I am less shy, I no longer need to hide away somewhere to be alone. At first, I was so busy that I fell into bed exhausted at night." He frowned slightly and looked embarrassed before speaking again. "Do you think I've changed too much?" Elex squeezed his hand and gave him a smug smile. "Rosa asked me the same thing today, it's a trick question. If I say no, it makes it seem like you're still the teenager you were back then and haven't changed. If I say yes, then I make you feel like a complete stranger to me. You're not the Lysander I fell in love with anymore, but I love the person you are right now." After this confession, she looked down at the ground, slightly ashamed, as it was only then that she realized what she had just said. Talking about themselves was hard. Visibly struggling for composure, she demanded an answer from him. "And me? Have I changed too?" Lysander took his time with his reply and looked at her for a moment, then he looked out of the window, both dreamily and embarrassed. "Visually, maybe, since I've never seen your natural hair color before. A little more ink on your skin here and there. But you are exactly as I dreamed you'd be." His voice sounded calm and at the same time like an unmistakable remark he had casually made. After another sip of wine, Elex decided to switch to a more serious topic. "This is very abrupt to ask now but... we wanted to be honest with each other when we met someone else."Before she could continue, Lysander interrupted her. "I haven't really had opportunities to meet anyone here. And I didn't really want to." "There wasn't anyone with me, either." He didn't seem to have expected that answer. He had been hoping it, but he also knew that Elex possessed traits that made her an attractive woman. Meanwhile, she just shrugged casually, and added "I just didn't want anyone else.”

This confirmation seemed to have triggered something in him, because he felt the urgent need to be close to her. No sooner had he risen than he put his arms around her back and pulled her off the stool. Their lips met passionately with an urgency as if they wanted to catch up on the time that had passed. The next moment he had her sitting on the counter while Elex stroked the back of his neck with her hands. With her legs spread, she clung to him, causing him to let out a low moan. With quick movements, he pushed the cardigan off her shoulders before his hands tried to bury themselves in her hair. Elex undid her tightly woven braid and shook her head briefly, causing them to separate. Lysander ran a hand along her long blonde hair and looked at her tips, which were still dyed white. This time she initiated the kiss by pulling him strongly toward her. His fingertips, meanwhile, wandered under her blouse; each touch on her bare skin triggered goosebumps on her. He enjoyed caressing her soft body and heard a suppressed sigh when he pressed against her. When the tip of his tongue touched her lips, she gave in to him and surrendered to the shared wave of pleasure. He wanted to rip off every single piece of her clothing so he could have sex with her right there, or carry her up to the bedroom first. Burying himself in her and forgetting everything. But was this perhaps going too fast for her? Was he forcing himself on her? A moment's pause caused doubts to rise in him. Lysander broke away from her lips and lightly poked her nose to look into her dreamy eyes. They were both panting again, so it took him a moment before he spoke up. "One last question. I have the guest room prepared in case you'd rather have your own room." Without taking his eyes off her, he brushed a strand of hair from her face and flashed her a distinct smile. "Personally, I won't hide the fact that I'd like to spend the night with you. But if that's too fast for you, I can understand that, of course." On one hand, Elex was a bit perplexed by the question, but on the other, she knew what she wanted. "I think you made the bed for nothing at all..." Lysander smirked at the remark and gave her a quick kiss. "We really haven't slept in the same bed for a long time." "I've missed that. I've missed you. Because of you, my sleep is so bad when I'm by myself." Her gaze suddenly seemed distant, as if she wasn't present with her thoughts. He took a step back from the counter and pulled her down with him into a hug.

Elex buried her face against his chest and clenched her hands into fists, jokingly punching him. After a few light blows he grabbed her wrists and bent down to her, covering her forehead with kisses. Completely overwhelmed by her emotions, she began to sob. Lysander hugged his girlfriend tightly with the knowledge that there was similar chaos inside him. "I'm so sorry. I-I-... I should be happy and not spoil this moment. But sometimes I just couldn't stand it without you." She was shaking all over and needed his hold to steady herself. "Elex, do you think I felt any different? I cursed every time we failed to meet again. When I couldn't reach you because you were stressed, or our sleeping patterns were too different. When I missed another event in your life." "I wanted to be there for you..." To add emphasis to his statement, Lysander lifted Elex's head and gently wiped the tears from her face. "You were. We were always a part of each other's lives. Physically separated, yet still connected." "I never, ever want to be away for so long again." His girlfriend sounded almost angry with herself now. But he didn't want to be without her for another two years either. "Let's go upstairs. I'd like to fall asleep in your arms.”
