When Adam awoke, he couldn't be sure what time it was. His muscles wouldn't move and it was pitch black around him, so he felt it safe to assume after a moment of calculating that he had woken up at the wrong time. He stretched out a leg and sighed, resituating himself just slightly, or as much as he could with the arms curled around him. …How exactly did you get here? He thought as he looked down at an arm around his waist, feeling the tight grip that Lawrence had pulled him into. He was breathing somewhat heavy, his head resting nuzzled up against the back of Adam's shoulder as he slept. Adam wondered at what kind of dream he must've been having…but then he got the idea.

Lawrence was in a deep sleep, but even still it was evident the signs of his body's resltessness. Adam was especially shocked to feel what he could only assume to be Lawrence's clear arousal against the back of his leg, the idea of which suddenly making him wide awake. Some dream! Adam chuckled to himself nervously, swallowing hard as he stiffened a little—in more places than one. This was new. He clenched his eyes shut and tried to get back to sleep, refusing to torment himself by lying here conscious. There wasn't anything he could—or should—do about that right now. He could deal with it in the morning…somehow. Or…maybe he'd just be able to forget about it by then.

Of course, that didn't work. The more he tried to sleep, the more Lawrence's body was all he could focus on, and the way it was pressed so close against his own. The warmth of Lawrence's breath on his shoulder and the feel of his hands on his middle were only adding to the problem, reminding Adam of where those hands had been just a few days ago…Oh hell. Suddenly that picture was stuck in his head, and the memory of those feelings was sending shock waves straight to his groin. Tightening his fists in frustration, he tried to close his eyes again, only to be met with those familiar, arousing images that he knew would never leave him. Lawrence's body on top of his, the shiver that he couldn't help when he felt lips against his neck, the soft throbbing of his cock under Lawrence's hand. It was almost too much just to think about it.

Adam moved barely to try and resituate his now straining erection, at which Lawrence responded by shifting one arm a short ways up his body to his ribcage. Adam bristled under the friction, concentrating on where that arm settled. He paused for a long while as he looked down at it, biting his lip. Testingly, he pushed himself back against Lawrence's body, gently letting his leg apply some pressure to the most …restless part of his companion. He felt a groan rumble in Lawrence's chest, sending out a vibration that crawled down Adam's back and settled between his legs. That broke him.

Adam put a hand on Lawrence's arm, easing it away so that he could raise up as he turned over and placed a palm up against his shoulder. "Come on, man…" he murmured as he pushed Lawrence over onto his back, crawling up over him. "We gotta…fuck, I don't know…do something here…" he bowed his head down onto his chest and reached down to undo Lawrence's pants, almost unthinking as though he'd done this a dozen times before. Lawrence sighed below him, confused and oblivious in his unconscious world as hands tugged down his pants. Adam didn't get much further than that, as he was at a loss. He didn't know what to do from this point, he'd never been with a man before…Reaching up, he apprehensively kissed him, surprisingly getting a rather hasty reaction as Lawrence kissed back and began blindly fumbling one arm to fall at Adam's side.

Adam put more passion into his kiss, rubbing his hand against the side of Lawrence's head as he methodically rocked his hips once along his lover's. Lawrence's chest rose in what seemed like a gasp of some sort, his legs moving a little to accommodate the body on his. Adam slowly repeated the action in a tenative fashion, biting back on a gasp of his own as he felt a hot spark of dizzy intoxication claw at his consciousness. His body seemed to know what to do better than he did. Lawrence let out a choked moan as his hands suddenly found Adam's waist, a sign that suggested he had woken up. A moment later he felt Lawrence rise up to meet his rythmatic rocking eagerly, releasing a husky growl that made Adam instinctively push down harder against him.

They were both into it headlong now, Lawrence really only half awake, but his body preforming without effort. Adam couldn't stop the chorus of moans that came tumbling out of his chest, his vision blurry and his nerves tingling pleasurably in a growing torrent. He was having a difficult time trying to kiss back as Lawrence ravaged him with kisses of his own and a nip here and there against more sensitive skin, his hands roaming various parts of the other's body, but it all felt so good that nothing really mattered. Adam paid careful attention to when Lawrence bucked up against him, trying to focus his movements towards the areas that received severe reactions. He desperately wanted to relieve his partner, but he didn't know how much longer he himself would last.

He quickly felt Lawrence tense up, his fingers digging into Adam's side as his back arched and he cried out sharply. This was followed by a tighter grip and a louder cry, making Adam gasp out. He somehow reveled in this. The idea of giving Lawrence a much needed climax inspired in him an odd feeling of power, and he clenched his jaw tightly as he felt himself peaking as well. His mind fizzled and blackened as he let out a grateful moan, cumming with a grimace into a daze. He was practically tremoring as he came down off his high, panting slow and deep.

He collapsed onto Lawrence, resting his head down on his chest and feeling his body slump. It was as though all of his muscles had turned into a liquid that was slowly melting away from his bones, leaving him useless and motionless. He managed to keep his eyes open as Lawrence put his arms on him, one hand rubbing his side that had been slightly clawed at and the other stroking over his head. "…Adam…whoah…" he croaked, obviously awake by now.

"Mm." He replied, closing his eyes.

"…What was that?" Lawrence continued.

Adam sighed softly, raising his head to look up at him. "…Sorry, I-I…I think I have another pair of boxers you could borrow…" he muttered.

Lawrence laughed quietly and pushed his head back down onto his chest, gently running his fingers through his hair. "No, I meant…better than any alarm clock."

"…Looked like you needed it…" Adam offered tiredly, letting his eyes close again as he felt the tender touches.

"…For a long time." He admitted, feeling the short strands of Adam's hair fondly between his fingers.

"Should've asked me to do something sooner…I…I would've done it, you know." Adam replied, unable to help but think that he hadn't really done much for Lawrence in comparison with what had been done for him. "Any time."

"Hm…" Lawrence smiled sighed again, voice heavy and lilted with exhaustion. "…Good to know."

Adam responded with an equally exhausted grumble, resting comfortably against the warmth of another body for what seemed like the first time in years.
