A/N: This is an M-rated section of the otherwise T-rated story, "Chipped," and probably won't make much sense if read alone. If you'd like to read the story in the proper order, this section takes place during chapter 9 (right after the second 'o0o' break), but if you want to read these parts of the story, you might as well just read the chapter in its entirety on AO3. A link to the AO3 version of the story can be found on my profile (right bellow the disclaimer and the link to the Reviews Lounge, Too).

Bonus Scene 2: I Just Thought You Should Know

After they had eaten, Charles followed Erik to his room on the pretext of playing chess, but as soon as the door closed behind them, he had Erik pressed against it, kissing him fiercely. If you want to play chess, Charles' voice murmured in his mind, that would be lovely, but I want to do this first.

And then Charles was on his knees and Erik's head hit the metal door at his back with a dull thud. "Charles," he gasped.

Yes? Charles rubbed his cheek cat-like against Erik's thigh then smiled impishly up at him. His hand rested against Erik's other thigh, the heat tantalizing through the fabric of Erik's trousers.

One of Erik's hands found its way to Charles' head, very gently stroking his hair. Wouldn't this be more comfortable on the bed?

Raising one eyebrow and quirking up one side of his lips, Charles conceded, "Perhaps." His breath made the material in front of his mouth warm and slightly damp. "But if you don't mind terribly, I'd like to do it this way." Sliding his hands up to grip Erik's hipbones, he regarded him through his lashes.

Would you be at all offended if we moved to the bed before I return the favour? Erik asked, unsure how he was even still managing coherent thoughts, let alone complicated sentences.

Charles laughed, resting his forehead against Erik's abdomen and shaking his head slightly. Of course not. And you're wonderful. I just thought you should know that.
