Chapter Eight

Arthur dreamed about Alfred that night. In his dream he could see, but yet he still could see him. He was a vague form in the distance and every time Arthur tried to focus on him or call out to him he seemed to get more and more distant. But Arthur could hear his voice in his ears, telling him all the things he wanted to do to him. Lips brushing butterfly kisses over his neck and shoulder. Fingernails scraped down his chest and his pelvis rocked against Arthur's backside. His tail would move to the side and Alfred would growl and tell him how sexy he was. His hands would mold his ass while teeth would nip and bite the juncture of his shoulder.

Arthur awoke trembling, his sex rock hard and aching painfully. He was thankful, at least, that he had not come in his sleep. It was disgusting enough having to wear the same pair of pants day after day without adding an extra squishy and sticky sensation to them. He stripped and took a shower. The nice thing about everyone being blind was that as long as he kept his breathing under control, nobody was the wiser. He stood under the hot water, thinking of honey and the taste of the American's kiss as he stroked himself. He knew it was wrong but if he didn't get some kind of release he was going to go insane. He stroked himself to a slow and exquisite climax. He had expected to feel shame or guilt, but after it was done he only felt relief. The orgasm had been to long coming, no pun intended.

Arthur was ready when Toris came for him later on. He stood complacently as his wrists were bound. This time, however, Arthur's heart was pounding more then usual. He could no longer deny that he wanted to see the American, to be with him. Toris was silent as they walked through the halls until they reached the lift. The moment the doors closed he said "He's never done this before, you'know."

"Done what?" Arthur asked, shaking himself from his thoughts of what the American had planned for that night's seduction.

"Taken an interest in a prisoner like this," he explained "he never really paid much attention before."

Arthur pursed his lips. He had never stopped to think about whether or not seducing a prisoner was a normal pastime or game for the American. "Never?"

"Never. Captain America is a rather solitary man."

"Really? Seems like a man who enjoys company and lots of it to me."

Toris chuckled "He is just a very open and happy person." His voice dropped down low "Even during the war on earth he always managed to make us laugh. We hated and loved him for it."

"The war on earth?"

"The Resources War."

"Oh, yes." Arthur nodded "He was part of the rebellion I take it?"

"Part of it? He was one of the leaders."

Arthur was shocked "What?"

"Yes. He was one of our generals. Fought to the bitter end. He probably would have still fought if we hadn't dragged him out of there. He was the hero after all, and heros do not give up?"

"Wasn't the rebellion unsuccessful?'

Toris laughed bitterly "I suppose that is all the history books care about, who won." He sighed "They never write about the acts of bravery or the innocent bloodshed that comes along with battle."

Arthur was quite for a moment, knowing Toris was absolutely right. "You said he was a hero?"

"Yes. He saved many peoples lives. I even remember one time he ran into a burning building just to save some women's little girl. I think it was about that time everyone started to respect him... even though we all think he's a little crazy." Toris laughed.

"You all respect him and trust him?"

"Oh yes." Toris answered simply.

The new information sent Arthur's mind for a loop. "Why are you telling me this?"

"Because I'm happy to see him so happy. I've known him eight years and I have never seen him act like he might have an interest in someone." To say Arthur was surprised would have been an understatement. Absolutely stunned was more like it. The man could seduce like a pro!

"He-he's happy?"

From his tone Arthur knew Toris was smiling "Oh yes. I've never seen him look at anybody or talk about anybody the way he talks about you."

Arthur gulped and tried to control the blush that he knew was coming to his face "There... has never been anyone else?'

"Captain visits the whorehouses like everyone else. Well except for Roderich, but that's because he has Elizaveta Oh, and Ludwig stays behind too because he has Feliciano." Toris chuckled "When we arrive everyone goes their separate ways, weather it's to the male or female licensed companions is their own business." It wasn't said with derision or disgust, only respectful amusement. "But anything more than a quick roll? No. Captain America has never brought anyone to his room that I know of. Though I'm sure he has had many offers."

It had never occurred to Arthur that Alfred's interest in him was more than just lust. Arthur tried to calm his beating heart. Just because that might be true it didn't mean the American... what? Cared for him? Love him? Arthur's chest ached at even the thought of the word love.

The lift stopped. The air that washed over Arthur as the doors opened seemed different then it had before. It smelled cleaner. Toris fell silent as he led Arthur the rest of the way. Arthur thought about Vash's words, and Toris'. He thought about what loyalty meant to pirates.
