Miles walked into the Prosecutors building and headed toward the Chief's office. He felt bad about having to leave Phoenix, even if he had given him the okay. He hoped that the Chief had actually meant "brief' when he said it.

The door was ajar when Miles arrived but he still knocked.

"Come in."

Miles walked in, still not knowing what to expect.

"Ah, Mr. Edgeworth. Please have a seat." Miles did so then he continued, "I heard you've been seeing someone."

"Yes, I actually planned to discuss that with you on Monday."

"Oh? Dating is not generally something you must report. I was merely curious. Is there a reason you wish to disclose this information?"

"It's about who I'm dating," Miles admitted.

"Who might that be?"

Miles took a breath. Now was the time. "It's Phoenix Wright."

Surprisingly, he laughed. Miles was taken aback. He wasn't sure what he had expected, but it wasn't that.

"There have been several people who have wondered about your friendship."

That was a surprise. Had there been signs between them that Miles hadn't noticed?

When Miles didn't respond the chief continued, "I appreciate you being forthcoming about this matter, especially since he is a defense attorney; however, I have seen the results from your shared cases, and I'm confident that there is no reason to be concerned."

"I'm relieved to hear you say that." Miles meant it. Apparently he had been more concerned about it than he originally realized. He proceeded, "I suspect this is not the reason you called me for a meeting?"

"No."

Miles waited with baited breath for him to continue.

"You are an excellent prosecutor," He paused.

"Thank you, sir." Compliments felt awkward for Miles, but he wasn't going to tell the chief that.

"I want to promote you to Chief Prosecutor."

Miles was stunned. He had definitely not anticipated that. "What an honor, but what about you, sir?"

"I wanted to leave this job in capable hands so that I could pursue a career in politics. I trust that you will be a phenomenal replacement. We can go over your contract and begin your training this week."

"Thank you, sir!" Miles shook his hand feeling elated.

"I'll let you get back to the rest of your weekend. Congratulations."

Miles rushed home. He couldn't be more excited to tell Phoenix the news.

"That was fast," Phoenix greeted when Miles arrived. "How'd it go?"

"First, I told him about us." Miles was trying really hard not to give away everything immediately. He wanted to savor all of Phoenix's expressions.

"Whoa, really? What was his response?" His eyes sparkled with excitement. This was exactly what Miles had hoped to see.

"He laughed."

"Wait, what?"

Miles chuckled. "Apparently people already wondered about us long before we were together. He also complimented how well we work together."

"That's great news!"

"Indeed but there's more."

"More? Oh, right, what did he call you in for?"

Miles grabbed Phoenix's hands. "He's promoting me! I'm going to be the next chief prosecutor."

Phoenix smiled brightly with genuine enthusiasm. "Wow, Miles! This is fantastic! You did it! I'm so proud of you!"

Miles was elated. Not only had he achieved a dream of his, but he also had someone he loved to share it with. He kissed Phoenix. "Thank you… for everything."

"My pleasure." Phoenix closed the distance between them, pressing his body against Miles's and whispered in his ear. "Or rather, this is my pleasure." Phoenix kissed him and grabbed his ass.

"Insatiable," Miles joked.

"I could say the same about you." Phoenix reached down and cupped his partial erection causing him to moan.

"Honestly, I'm not sure I have the energy."

"Don't worry I'll be doing all the work this time," Phoenix cooed while kissing him along his jaw. "Let me give you a proper congratulations."

Miles shivered at the implication and gave in easily.

Phoenix caught him in a sweet, luxurious kiss. It was a very different style from their last romp. That had been almost aggressive with flying clothes and raw desire. This was romantic and filled with emotion. Miles let Phoenix take the lead this time and found he enjoyed it this way, too.

Once they made it to the bedroom, Phoenix took his time to carefully and lovingly remove every article of clothing from Miles. He was going to return the gesture but Phoenix shooed his hands away. He pushed Miles to sit on the bed and proceeded to give him a strip tease. Miles was stunned but definitely enjoyed the view.

When Phoenix was standing close enough, Miles grabbed him by the hips and pulled him in. He kissed him on the lower abdomen while he grabbed his ass. Phoenix tenderly stroked Miles's hair. It was all extremely sensual.

Phoenix took back the lead, leaning down to kiss Miles. He eased Miles back as he positioned himself between his legs. Phoenix sucked and nibbled lightly on Miles's bottom lip before giving him another soul-connecting kiss. When they parted, Miles caressed his partner's face, memorizing the look of adoration he wore.

Phoenix kissed Miles's neck, then his shoulders. He licked and sucked on each of Miles's nipples, then continued kissing down his body. Miles felt like his nerves were electrified, hyper aware of every touch.

Phoenix paused, grabbing the bottle of lube and used a generous amount on his finger. Miles felt the lightest of pressure on his entrance. He tried to relax the muscles and breath deeply. He couldn't deny that he was a bit nervous. Phoenix's other hand wrapped around Miles's cock and gave him long, slow strokes. Miles pushed lightly to take in Phoenix's finger which pretty easily slipped in.

"How does that feel?" Phoenix crooned.

"Surprisingly good," Miles managed to get out.

Phoenix thrust slightly causing Miles to moan when he felt, what he assumed to be, his prostate. Then, Phoenix pulled his finger out followed by Miles feeling two fingers pressing at his entrance. Miles again tried to push a little to accommodate the fingers. Once again they went in without a lot of effort. Miles could feel the muscles twitching slightly, trying to get used to the stretch.

"You seem to be getting this much faster than I did," Phoenix commented.

"We can compare notes later." He had intended it to be amusing but lusty tones had overpowered the sentence. Regardless, Phoenix still chuckled.

Miles felt Phoenix's fingers moving, trying to stretch him. He shut his eyes trying to concentrate on relaxing the ring of muscles. Wet, warmth enveloped the head of his cock causing his eyes to shoot back open. Phoenix's mouth was on him, tongue swirling over the tip. Miles moaned loudly. It seemed to be a good distraction as Phoenix was able to move his fingers around more easily and soon after, added another lubed finger.

"Are you ready?" Phoenix asked him.

Miles wasn't sure if he was. It was a little much all at once. "Could you give me another moment or two?"

Phoenix reached out and cupped his cheek with his free hand. "Of course. We can even stop if you want."

"No!" Miles responded a little too quickly causing his companion to giggle. "I mean, I just need a chance to adjust."

"I'll give you whatever you need."

Miles felt more behind that statement than just their present situation and it made a shiver run up his spine.

Phoenix started to suck on his dick again while thrusting his fingers. Miles uttered some very surprising whimpers and grunts in response, reveling in the feeling of it all.

"Okay, I think I'm ready," Miles decided.

"Are you sure?"

Miles nodded. With a slight shift, Phoenix positioned himself at his opening. Miles felt the cool moisture from the fresh lube against him. Phoenix pushed into him, firmly but not recklessly. Miles had to bear down to try to accommodate him. He moved slowly and Miles was thankful that he had a little time to adjust.

Miles felt Phoenix's pelvis against his ass and knew that meant he was all the way in. He grabbed for his hand to hold him in place for a moment. He felt very… full. It was pretty indescribable. It wasn't really painful or uncomfortable. It felt good, but it was also intense.

Miles wasn't really sure what to expect next. Phoenix leaned in towards him and slipped his hands under Miles's arms, cupping his shoulders. From the new position, Phoenix rocked his body, pushing in and out in slow controlled thrusts. Miles panted and groaned. Everything was suddenly hitting all the right places. Tingles filled him, starting from around his abdomen and bursting out in pulses. At every thrust, Phoenix would hit that glorious bundle of tissue, and a new wave would overtake him.

He forced his eyes open, not sure when they had slipped shut, and looked up at his lover. His sparkling eyes were filled with passion and love. Miles cupped his cheek, which he leaned into. He was overcome by his feelings for the other man, affection, adoration, and so much more; they filled his heart making it seem like it would explode from all of the emotions.

"Phoenix," he moaned, his own voice sounding foreign to him.

Phoenix managed to lean in and kiss him. If it had been reversed he likely would have given an almost aggressive kiss, but when Phoenix kissed him it was like he was touching his soul. Emotions engulfed him and pressure formed in his belly. Phoenix continued the sensual thrusts and he cried out as his seed poured out between them. The ring of muscles clenched over and over with his orgasm, and Phoenix climaxed soon after.

Miles pulled him close, not minding taking his full weight on top of him. Phoenix nuzzled into his neck and Miles brushed fingertips across his back. Phoenix slipped out of him and rolled them on their sides, reaching for the box of tissues. He cleaned off their abdomens before laying down, facing Miles. Phoenix brushed the bangs out of Miles's face.

"I love you," Phoenix affirmed.

"I love you, too." In that moment he realized the gravity of their declaration.

I'm here for you. I'll care for you. I'll give you everything. I'll love you for all time.

Miles smiled as he looked at his future that was right in front of him.
