Tonight's Lover

His breath was ragged as he thrust into the pliant body beneath him.

He gasped.

He moaned.

His steady thrusts turned haphazard as he lost himself before a burst of white flashed before his eyes as he came.

With a strangled grunt he collapsed onto the body below. Well-toned chests met with a sweaty slap as he inhaled the other's scent for a moment before he took notice of the life within the forest beginning to stir again upon the conclusion of his coupling. Pulling out his eyes quickly scanned the surrounding landscape. Brows drawing together he realized that dawn was fast approaching.

He stood soundly and quickly dressed himself before he turned and left not uttering a single word of his departure.

"See ya 'round," a soft voice said, mildly annoyed.

He did not turn around to acknowledge the other and kept walking at a steady, confident pace.

Only when he felt a whirl of youki burst out of nowhere from behind him did his steady pace turn into an airborne glide.

He'd almost made it far enough away to not catch the gruffer tone the voice now held as the other ended their encounter with one simple word that summed up their... affiliation:

"Asshole".
