“Edward, please take my hand.”
The soft fabric of the sheets in Stede’s bed was touching his naked skin and Edward pushed one of the blankets aside so he could grab Stede’s hand. His lover’s skin felt warm and soft under his touch and when Stede softly moaned his name, Ed laced their fingers together.
“You feel so good, Ed,” Stede whispered, and the way he arched his back, pressing up against Ed made both of them moan in unison. Their bodies were moving together in a slow yet intense rhythm, almost like the waves of the sea outside that were lapping at the ship’s walls. Even though the rest of the Revenge’s crew was still celebrating Calypso’s birthday, Ed was completely focused on the beautiful man in his arms. He wasn’t even noticing the sounds coming from the fireworks the others were starting for the party. Stede was all that Ed was feeling, needing, and wanting. More than just their bodies, their minds and hearts were one, and the way Stede moved against him was proof that they both were completely lost in their longing for each other.
This felt so different from everything Ed had ever experienced. Sex had never meant much to him besides feeling good, but with Stede, it was so much more. Their relationship was so much more. Edward just wanted to lose himself in Stede and their love forever.
