This is the version I imagined for Integra's Chapter 2, The Next Morning, with only a few changes made. These chapters were edited with her permission!

Stranded

The next morning

It was the light filtering through the overhead branches that finally woke me. The lull of the ocean had kept me in a dream state longer than usual and if not for the circumstances, I would have gladly closed my eyes. It was still early and as much as I wanted nothing more than to go back to sleep, my body reminded me that I had been in one position far too long. I thought I was beyond feeling the aches and pains in my limbs from the night before but morning reminded me that I could not continue to ignore my screaming muscles. It hurt to even open my eyes but it was the one muscle I could successfully move without causing me to cry out in pain.

The next thing I noticed was I was no longer lying flat on the sand, but half draped over someone. My head was resting on the side of his neck and cheek while my left arm was across his chest. His left arm was circled around my waist and his right hand was resting on my arm but very near my breast. My leg was high around his waist. It was a position I often found myself while at home in bed with Fenris…but from the body type I knew this could only be Anders I was lying comfortably on.

My first thoughts raced to how Fenris would react if he woke and found me bodily lying on another man when I realized that was the least of my problems. Anders may not have been awake but another part of his body was nice and snug against me. I could feel him through his trousers and my body reacted as it normally did upon waking up with Fenris on many occasions. I could feel that I my own undergarments were slick and I only hoped that he would not notice it as well.

I didn't realize I had involuntary dug my fingers into his shoulder in my attempt to move and only got a more intimate feel of the full length of him and was forced to stop. Truthfully I realized just how much I was enjoying the feel of him and could not bring myself to move without letting out the moan I was suppressing. Perhaps in another situation I would have needed no other invitation than to simply act out one's natural urges. I could feel the difference in length and knew that being with him could not be compared to how it was with Fenris and for a moment, my mind wandered to the places my body could not.

He moved slightly and I closed my eyes, hoping that if he was awake, he didn't notice I had been racking my brain for the past several minutes on how to untangle myself without waking him. I felt his heartbeat speed up and knew without a doubt that he was now fully aware of his body's reaction. I felt him look past me, most likely thinking as I had of the man lying on the other side of me and the great possibilities of him causing him bodily harm for the positions we found ourselves in.

I felt his hand stiffen as it realized how close it was to my breast and he moved it away, but not before allowing his fingers to brush me gently, a flip of his thumb across my nipple which had become hard as I became aroused and I felt him swallow the involuntary moan when he finally moved his hand away. He placed his hand under my knee to lift it lightly from his waist, realizing too late just how snug he was to my body. I could feel him get harder and he cursed as he moved me quickly away but not before I felt him rub hard against me and I bit my lip to suppress my own moans.

I heard as he quickly got to his feet and moved away from us and I could only guess that he was now in desperate need to relieve himself. I was tempted to follow him, partly to make sure that he would be safe but also to find relief myself. I could feel just how soaked I now was and knew that if we were alone, I would not hesitate to go to him. My mind wandered to the feel of his muscles. I found that I hadn't minded the feel of his stubble either. I could still feel his fingers brushing the side of my breast and the tanatlizing length of him on my inner thigh.

I sighed and tried to calm my body down while I waited for him to return. I would give him some time to be alone but since we were unaware of our location, I didn't want him wandering off on his own, without a staff to protect himself with.

Maybe now would be a good time to practice that combat magic you've heard so much about, I told myself. If I could just learn how to channel without relying on a staff!

There was still so much I still felt I needed to be comfortable with doing this, but I felt with plenty of practice I knew I could do it. With lots and lots of practice, of course, with…Oh Maker! How was I going to face him now, knowing something so private and intimate!

Think Hawke!

I closed my eyes when I heard him returning. I was still facing him so when he lay down beside me once again, I returned my head back to his shoulder and pretended as if nothing had occurred. I knew I would eventually need to away from him, but for now I couldn't help myself from getting close to him. I knew that once we were all awake things would go back to the way they were but for now I could let my mind wander.

I felt him brush my hair away from my eyes and sigh as he laid his head back down on the sand.
