House

from here

Nyx nipped at his neck, then moved away and stood up again. It didn't take long to shed the rest of his clothes, kicking them aside and leaving them in a heap by the bed.

"Naked enough for you?" he grinned, before climbing back onto his lap.

Nyx lingered there a moment longer, then carefully lifted himself off the other man to lay on the bed beside him.

"Well, that's not where I thought the night was headed," he admitted with a breathless laugh.

[drfeelbad]

House disposed of the condom in a bin by the bed and then lay down on his back beside Nyx. "Same," he said, and looked at him. "That was - look, I don't know if that was some kind of mistake, but it was fucking amazing."

[tempting_the_fates]

"Not a mistake," Nyx said. "A good time is never a mistake."

Rolling onto his side, he smiled as he looked at the other man.

"Don't be a dick and kick me out, invite me to stay tonight."

[drfeelbad]

House smiled back at him. "Please stay the night," he said.

Between the physical activity and the distraction fading now, House's leg was starting to ache and he was doing his best to ignore it.

"I'd love to," Nyx grinned. "Can I use your shower?"

[drfeelbad]

“Sure,” House said, and pointed lazily. “There’s some clean towels over the sink… I think.”

He sat up a little and grabbed the Vicodin bottle on the bedside table.

Nyx leaned over to kiss his cheek, glancing at what he was taking before getting up to go shower.

[drfeelbad]

House shook two pills out of the bottle, swallowed them dry, and then tossed the bottle into the drawer along with the bottle of lube.

He briefly considered joining Nyx in the shower, but worried that might be… too much.

He almost felt as nervous now as he had at the start of all this. Fuck.

He lay back against the pillows and looked up at the ceiling.

When Nyx returned his hair was still slightly damp and slicked back, and he climbed right back into bed without pulling on any clothes. Rolling over, he curled up next to House, slipping an arm around him and tugging a blanket up over them both.

"You alright?" he asked, pressing a kiss to the other man's shoulder. "No regrets, right?"

[drfeelbad]

House slipped an arm around him. "I'm very all right," he assured him. "Just... unexpected."

[tempting_the_fates]

"Good unexpected, I hope," Nyx said as he settled in a bit more and closed his eyes. "It was good for me..."

[drfeelbad]

"Maybe that's the part that's unexpected," House chuckled, and squeezed Nyx a little from where his arm was around him. "And no, no regrets. I will live off of this for a while."

[tempting_the_fates]

Nyx hummed contently, yawning a little and closing his eyes as he got comfortable.

"No regrets," he agreed.

[drfeelbad]

Part of House wanted to ask what happened now, but honestly he didn't entirely care. Plus the Vicodin was kicking in and the ache in his leg was subsiding, which meant he might be able to actually sleep. "Don't hog the blankets," he mumbled as he closed his eyes.

Nyx only laughed, a soft sound that was nearly lost against the other man's shoulder as he settled in and let sleep drag him away.
