Chapter 36: To teasing and To Showers
He watched as Kol stripped; slowly, and no shame or embarrassment. Somewhere in his head he wondered if he would ever have that much confidence in himself, but most of his thought was on how gorgeous Kol looked.
Kol didn't even look at him, as he took off his boxers and walked into the bathroom. Jeremy knew that the vampire was aware that he had watched, and knew that Kol was still listening to see if he followed him into the shower.
He wanted to, but he was still nervous. Everything they had just down had been with some layers of clothes still on and stripping down bare naked in front of Kol was still something he felt shy about.
He heard the water turn on and the shower door both open and close, he looked towards the door but couldn't get his body to move.
"Jeremy." Elijah's voice was gentle but it still surprised him. As he looked at the door he felt his face burn as he realized they had never even closed the bed room door. He brought his hand up to cover his face. Elijah's hand caught his and he looked at the vampire's face.
The vampire smiled, "There is no need to be embarrassed. You are gorgeous and breathtaking and there is never a need to be embarrassed, when you find yourself lost in another you care for. None of us would expect something from you that you did not want to give. Most importantly," Elijah leaned in and kissed him, "We would not want you to hide yourself away from us." He added once he pulled away. "Now go, shower with Kol, I believe he is getting impatient." Before he left Elijah leaned in close again and gave him another kiss, it was soft but deep and nothing to do with sex or lust. It was a kiss purely of affection and it chased away most of the doubt and nerves Jeremy still had. Then Elijah pulled him away from the wall and gave him a shove towards the bathroom. When he turned around the thank the vampire he was already gone.
As he turned towards the bathroom he kicked his shoes off, his shirt and pants quickly followed. He hesitated outside the door, standing there in just his boxers he tried to push down the last bit of shyness he was feeling.
"Hurry up mate." Kol called from inside that shower, causing him to shake it off and finish stripping. He pushed open the door and was assaulted by hot steam, that only got thicker as he opened the glass door to the shower. The warmth felt relax and he didn't even jump when Kol grabbed his arm and pulled them chest to chest.
"Took you long enough. Everything okay?" Kol asked, looking unsure. Jeremy tried to see why Kol looked nervous, because the cocky vampire never seemed to doubt himself. But as he looked in the originals eyes he saw how Kol was watching him and he understood. Kol was worried that he had done something that Jeremy hadn't like and that was why he had been hesitant to join in him in the shower. So, Jeremy reached up and pulled Kol's head closer and kissed him.
They kept at it until Jeremy had to pull back to get a breath, "I was just being shy." He said.
"And Elijah helped?" Kol asked pushing Jeremy towards the shower wall, with a mischievous glint in his eyes. Jeremy let himself be pushed back, "Well he is better with words then you are," He said with his own smirk. Kol gave an affronted look and pressed his hand on Jeremy's chest, giving the last push until Jeremy's back hit tile.
"Really?" Kol said, "Well then I'll have to show you what I'm better with." And again, they were kissing. This time Jeremy didn't let Kol take control like he had before, he ran his tongue against Kol's lip until the vampire opened his mouth and let him slide his tongue in. Taking a trick from Kol he pressed his tip of his tongue against the top of the vampire's mouth and ran it slowly from the back to the front. He felt Kol's moan and he did it again.
After a few minutes Kol pulled away and smirked at Jeremy. Then the vampire lowered his head and started kissing along, his collar bone. Slowly moving from his neck to his shoulder and then back again. When Kol ran his tongue along the hollow of his neck, Jeremy moaned and reached up to place his hand on Kol's head. He didn't put pressure or grab hold of his hair, just let his fingers run though the vampire's wet hair.
Then Kol was placing kiss down wards starting at the bottom of his throat and then down the center of his chest. He kept going down along his abs and then he flicked his tongue at his navel; which caused him to jump. The vampire just laughed and then took the same path back up Jeremy's body.
This time however Kol got sidetracked along the way, Jeremy had closed his eyes at some point so he cried out when a warm tongue swept over his nipple. His hand tightening on Kol's hair, not that the vampire seemed to mind, as he let out a moan of his own. Then Jeremy felt Kol press his mouth against his sensitive skin around his nipple and suck, again he cried out, this time arching into the vampire.
Before, he had been tittering on the edge of relaxed and enjoying the feeling of Kol's mouth along his chest, but the spike that went through him and Kol's sucked on his nipple was bring him back to aroused.
When Kol bite down and used his teeth to gently pull on the small nub, Jeremy felt the pull in his abdomen and felt himself growing hard again. He moaned and pulled the vampires head away from his abused nipple.
"I thought we were in here to get clean?" He asked, smiling.
"I had a better idea." Kol said leaning in to kiss him.
Jeremy tried not to let himself get carried away again, but there was something about the vampire's mouth that was becoming addicting. "No." He said pushing Kol away.
The vampire gave him a pout.
Jeremy laughed, "We need to get clean, and I have a feeling if we really get going again we aren't going to stop for a while." He pushed Kol far enough away that he could move away from the wall. He looked at the bottles in a few small shelves in the corner and grabbed one that said body wash.
Then he turned around and gave Kol a smile, "But we can still have a little fun." Kol watched him as he opened the bottle and poured some of the soap into his hand. Once his hands where soapy he pressed him against Kol's shoulders. He slowly worked the soap into and along the vampire's shoulders and then down along his chest. He felt Kol relax under his hands and he kept at it.
It was nice to being able to fully touch and appreciate Kol's body. He liked using the soap as a reason to run his hands over every inch of skin and muscle he could find. He had never washed another person before and found it intimate in a way that had nothing to so with sex. Not that he wasn't using the touching as an excuse to tease Kol. He lingered over the vampire's nipples as he washed his chest and pressed in close when he moved behind him to start washing his back.
He blushed his way through washing Kol's butt and the vampire used that to his advantage as he kept pressing his ass into Jeremy's hands, causing them both to getting a little carried away once again.
Only Jeremy pulling his hands away and tisking the vampire got them to move on, not that Kol didn't frown at him for it.
Jeremy got his last bit of teasing in when he reached over Kol's shoulder, pressing close against him, to grabbed the moveable shower head. He smirked a little as Kol pushed back against him, the friction of their actions caused Jeremy to second guess his not sex in the shower idea, but he forced himself to put a little space between them as he rinsed off the soap from Kol's body.
He ended the way he started, standing in front of Kol.
This time the vampire was the one smirking as Kol, grabbed the same bottle of body washed and poured some into his hands. Jeremy gulped as Kol moved in and had to close his eyes when Kol started washing his chest.
If he thought washing Kol had been amazing and intimate it was nothing on how it felt as Kol took his time washing him. He couldn't remember another time when he had felt so relaxed, as Kol worked along his body. The vampire even added pressure along his shoulders working on loosening his knots as he washed him. When Kol was behind him he couldn't stop himself from leaning into the vampire eyes still closed.
Kol chuckled and brought his hand back to his chest playing with the soup there for several minutes. "Mate, I can't clean your back with you pressed against me." Though the vampire made no move to actually move Jeremy.
Jeremy huffed as he forced himself to move away, then he turned towards the wall and leaned against it, placing his head on his arm and his back to Kol. The vampire seemed to move even slowly after that, take forever to wash his shoulders and then back, and to Jeremys surprised the touches lost the teasing and it turned in to something more soothing and comforting.
He was half asleep by the time, Kol rinsed him off and turned the water off.
"Stay." Kol said before he opened the shower door and disappeared. Jeremy shivered at the burst of cold air but he didn't move. Then Kol was back and there was a soft towel being rubbing along his back and legs, then he was told to turn as Kol started drying off his front. He opened his eye's long enough to see Kol had wrapped a towel around his waist not giving Jeremy a chance to dry him off, he frowned a little but closed his eyes when Kol brought the towel up to dry his hair.
Once he was dry, he was forced to open his eyes and actually move. He followed Kol out of the bathroom and into the bedroom, where Kol tossed him a pair of soft pants.
"Kol?" He asked when the vampire didn't hand him anything else.
"Huh?" Kol asked as he started getting dressed in his own pair of pajama pants.
"Boxers? Shirt?" Jeremy asked, started to get a little cold from standing naked in the room.
"What about them?" Kol asked looking at him with his usual smirk.
Jeremy sighed, no way was he going to win this one. So, he just pulled on the pants and tried to ignore any wanted to blush at walking around commando and shirtless in the Mikaelson's house.
He did notice that Kol seemed pleased that he went along with it, which gave him a happy feeling.
Of course, all of his shyness and embarrassment came flooding back, when they walked into the living room and he saw Klaus's smirk. He docked his head, as he remembered that the two of them had been able to hear what him and Kol had been up too. He wasn't sure if they could hear them while they were in the shower but he knew for a fact they had heard them when he was pinned against Kol's bed room wall.
He was staring at the floor trying to figure out the best way to disappear when Klaus started laughing, "Jeremy, love come here." He looked up at the hybrid, who was waiting for him to move, so he did.
When he was close enough, Klaus reached out and pulled him against him. The vampire didn't say anything just leaned up to kiss Jeremy. Jeremy's body melted against the vampire and he felt himself deepen the kiss, even reaching to grab the man's shirt to pulled him closer.
Then Klaus pulled away, just enough to look at him, "Listen to Elijah, there is no reason to be embarrassed."
Then he was kissed again, "Besides, love, we enjoyed hearing the sounds you made."
There were laughs from the other two vampires as he groaned and dropped his head onto Klaus' shoulder, he tried to hide it but he felt himself start to laughing right along with them.
