   Summary

   “I’m sorry, please don’t stop, I’ll be better, I promise,” Simon gasps as he shakes his head, gripping Grace’s shirt as his words rattle around his head so harshly they come tumbling out before he can think to stop them. “I’ll be good, I swear.”

   “Hey, hey, shh,” a gentle voice washes over his concern, eroding it away bit by bit as hands cup his face. “I gotcha, I’m right here, Flower, I promise.”

   As gentle lips return to his quivering ones, Simon’s eyes focus back in on the man over him, guiding him back to the present.

   ——

   Or

   Grace guides Simon through riding him for the first time while talking him through it. Slow and gentle as opposed to the quick and rough treatment he had grown used to.
