A/N: Hey guys, so this is literally just a continuation of Wrinkle in Time, but you don't really need to know what happened in the last one (reeeeaaaally short synopsis: Dante met Nero after DMC3 and then they went through DMC1 together) other than there's an established relationship between Dante and Nero in this fic. Also this was going to be up last week but I thought I'd give you guys a longer chapter this time instead of two short ones, shutting up and getting on with it.

Nero stretched leisurely, it had been a slow night last night, and the hunters had retired early, well they had gone to the bedroom early, that didn't necessarily mean that they had gone to sleep… the partial devil looked over at his partner, who was sprawled on his back breathing loudly through his open mouth. Nero smiled, thinking back on the past couple years. Frankly he couldn't be happier, he had a man he loved (not that he would've thought that would've happened a few years ago) and a job that made him feel like he was truly at home in his own skin. Dante let out a small snort and shuffled slightly and Nero had to hide his laughter in the back of his throat. He remembered what it was like coming back from the mission that had changed so much. That fateful few days on Mallet Island had brought them a new business partner, had brought himself and Dante even closer together and convinced Lady all the more that the two of them were walking natural disasters. It wasn't like they had meant the blow up half the island! He remembered only vaguely the lecture that she had given them the next morning, what he remembered much, much better was what had come just previous of that…

-Time Slip-

Dante awoke with a groan, he barely remembered getting into bed after the mission… and what a mission it had been, the feel of a cushy bed underneath him was just shy of heaven, and the feel of another body snuggled into his own rocked it up another couple steps. He looked down at Nero's sleeping face on his bare chest, the partial devil was still wearing all his clothes as the red hunter hadn't the energy to pull them off last night. He'd barely gotten his friend into bed as it was… Well there was no time like the present to fix that problem… he slipped the other hunter onto his back and slithered down his body, unbuckling his pants like a horny ghost and slid them off in one fell swoop. Or that's what he had planned to do until they got caught on the partial devil's boots that he was in fact still wearing at the time and Nero slipped down the bed a good several inches and grunted, face scrunching up and he lifted mismatched hands to rub at his eyes.

"Dante…?" he mumbled, wondering why his legs were so cold all of a sudden. He looked down to see Dante grumbling and picking at the buckles keeping his boots on his feet. The younger hunter was so confused as to why he was still wearing boots in the first place, how on earth had he fallen asleep with them on…? He thought back to the previous days and the absolutely exhausting mission that they had just accomplished, that'd be a pretty good reason to fall asleep with them on… he sat up and deftly opened the buckles and shucked them off himself. Dante just looked at him sheepishly.

"I was trying to wake you up in a really pleasant way… I may have failed slightly on my mission." Nero just grinned and pulled his many shirts over his head all at once, tossing them to the floor with a flop and grabbed the other man's shoulder, pulling them both onto their backs.

"I think it was plenty nice enough, now how about we do something about this little problem that we both seem to have huh?" the partial devil rubbed their hips together, loving the way his lover's eyes rolled back in his head

"That…" Dante started to kiss around his neck "sounds like an excellent idea." He thrust a little harder and the two of them winced at the dry feeling

"Lube." Nero grunted, groping among the pillows

"Yeah, no shit, what'd you do, rub sand on your dick?" Nero smirked, setting the tube next to himself and thrusting roughly against his partner's hips, ignoring the discomfort.

"Yeah, can't you feel it?" he grated a little harder and Dante growled a little, hiking Nero's excitement up with it as he growled back. He squeezed a liberal amount of the slippery concoction over his glowing hand and reached down between their bodies, loving the sensation of the leathery flesh squeezing the two of them together.

"Ah fuck…" Dante sighed "It's been too long since we did this." Nero rolled his eyes but sighed all the same when he saw Dante squeeze a little more lube onto his fingers before reaching behind himself

"It's only been like three days." He said, the half devil nodded, working himself open for his lover and baring his teeth when he hit himself at just the right angle.

"Like I said, too long." He reiterated before settling himself just above Nero's twitching member. It did seem like it had been an awfully long time since they had last done this… he thought, he knew it hadn't, hell they'd done a few quickies in the castle itself but still, it felt like too long since they had done it well and in a real bed. He gasped as Dante sank down on top of him, still tight and squeezing him in a molten, intimate embrace. Nero waited as patiently as he could for Dante to sink down all the way and when he had he thrust just a little, testing the waters. When the half devil just growled happily Nero took that as the okay and thrust as best as he could at their angle.

He quickly had enough of Dante's slow pace though… and flipped the two of them over, thrusting harshly into that heat, claiming it as his own.

"Mine…" he growled and Dante arched his back, clearly he must've done something right… he growled again, feeling his demonic blood surging through his chest like a wildfire. The sight of Dante, chest bent up, fangs bared and dick in hand was too much for Nero. He let it all go with a yell, thrusting unevenly and feeling Dante follow after him just a moment later.

A/N: So yeah… how's that for a first chapter? There's gonna be a lot of this in this fic I think, it's been a while since I've written really good smut…

Till next time,
