A week had passed since the end of Hector's missions, true to his words-the others didn't bother him to do anything at all except maybe a few questions and he did have explain why he was wearing an Afghan soldier's uniform when he got back. That was fun to do but the basis of it was that he needed a way to get close without being detected. Best option: look like one of their own. He switched uniforms with an Afghan soldier-who went on to distract other guards and Hector got in, captured the target, and that was it. It just took awhile because Hector was got hurt and the prisoner escaped once, all that aside, it was over now. All of Nightwave was excited, a lot of soldiers were because Nightwave wasn't the only one going home. They were all packed and heading towards the airfield to get on the plane that would take them back to Berk, it was exciting. Shortest tour yet being only six and a half months. It was only middle of September, they were supposed to go home in November but all Hector's hard work got them home earlier.

However, it wouldn't be so easy being back home either. Aside from Mandy, Danielle, Carmen, and Reina-no one knew Hector and Tallon were married and had been since March. They'd promised to have another small remarriage ceremony when they got home but it wouldn't be instant. Hector and Tallon still had to consummate their marriage, it wasn't really a have to thing but they wanted to. It was a marriage tradition to spend the wedding night with your lover. This wasn't something they could do being deployed but once they got home on the other hand-they had all the privacy in the word because the guys knew to stay clear of the apartment. Of course when they got back to Berk, Hector would have to see his parents and sister, also the president to wrap a few things up. When that was done, it would be just him and Tallon for a few days so they could enjoy being home and one another.

"Alright soldiers, let's load up and get the fuck outta here!" Hector told them with a smile, everyone loaded on the plane and got seated. He took platoon roll call then let the pilots know they were ready to leave. Not more than fifteen minutes later, they were high in the sky and headed back to Berk. The only thing that sucked is that they were leaving Afghanistan at 2am. They'd be stopping in Romania for an hour and thirty minutes, then again in Germany for forty-five minutes before reaching Berk at 7:20am after all the layovers and time changes.

"Finally going home," Tallon said as he kissed Hector's cheek.

"I can hardly wait," Hector replied with a smile as the two of them shared a short kiss then held hands and relaxed in their seats for the duration of the flight.

(Berk; 8am)

There had been one or two delays getting back into Berk, there was a mix up with planes and they refueled the wrong one with took some extra time but regardless they were finally back on their home island. Filing off took some time but they all lined up near baggage claim so Hector could talk to them like he did after every tour-tried to address them and tell them all what a good job they did.

"Shortest tour yet, am I right?" Hector smiled looking to the lined up platoons of Nightwave. The soldiers cheered clapping, "But hey, here we are. Back on home soil, I'll keep it short because I'm sure you all wanna disperse and get to your families. I just want to thank all of you for all you did when we were there. I know it wasn't easy, some of the craziest shit we've ever been through but...I want you to know how much I appreciate you all standing together when things went down. You stood up for one another, protected each other, and never gave up. You are all family to me, and I cherish every one of the friendships I have with each of you. And I'm so grateful to you all for standing by me over the last few weeks-that was a time when I really needed people to lean on and...you all in some way or another gave me just that. So thank you. Few quick things: one, we still have drill the second weekend of every month so I expect to see you all bright and early in October for that. Two, there will be an award, medal, and promotion ceremony in two weeks held at Berk Hall-orders from the president. That is a Class A wear event. That being said, enjoy the tour being over and go enjoy being with your families once again. Dismissed!"

They saluted him then broke off to be with their families, Hector took a deep breath as Tallon came beside him and held his hand as they walked to Spencer, Val, Heather, May, and Simon. Darius and Skylar were walking with Tallon and Hector. Here came the tears of absolute joy they were home safe and sound. Val wrapped her arms around him tightly and he cringed a bit-his arm was still sore from when he'd been grazed during the missions.

"Easy, Mom..." Hector stated as he hugged her back.

"Sorry, baby. I'm just so glad you're home. Both my boys are, and my nephew." Val said softly as she hugged Darius, Skylar, and even Tallon. Hector hugged his sister, father, aunt, and uncle, there were hugs all around. Hector and Tallon were keeping their hands together and no one noticed the rings yet and if anyone asked-they were going to say they were promised rings or something, they'd make the announcement when they got more settled in of being home and not at war.

"I'm glad your all home safe. We were all going to go out for a late breakfast, up to joining?" Spencer asked with a smile.

"If we hadn't been flying since 2am, Dad, I'd love too but I'm still on Afghanistan time where right now it's 12pm...I'm exhausted and just want to get some sleep. Still recovering," Hector said lightly.

"Of course, son. We understand. Maybe we see you later tonight?" Val asked with hopeful eyes.

"We'll try and if not, we'll come see you tomorrow okay?" Hector smiled. Val nodded as they all left the airport after getting their bags. Spencer had driven Hector's truck over for him so Hector and Tallon were heading straight home to sleep. "See you around," Hector waved to them as he and Tallon left in the truck, Tallon was going to drive since Hector was barely able to keep his eyes open.

(Furysen Apartment)

They were so happy to be home again, in their apartment. They had stopped to do a little shopping because when they left they had sent all the food to his parents house so it wouldn't go bad while they were away. They just grabbed thing for a few days, they'd do a bigger shopping trip after they recovered from being out of war again. Today would be eating, unpacking, and sleeping. The days following would be them catching up with everyone, recovering. Tallon got the key in the door and they walked in with their bags, and then going back out to the truck for groceries which consisted of: milk, eggs, bread, butter, few canned foods, and frozen meals, pasta. Things they could just make quick meals with for a few days.

"Gods, it's good to be home..." Hector sighed out as he placed the five bags he was carrying on the counter top.

"I second that. Let's get this stuff put away and then unpack," Tallon suggested. Hector nodded as they began putting away the food, and small supplies they'd gotten for the apartment. This didn't take the two of them more then ten minutes to finish, then they started unpacking their bags and getting out of their uniforms-getting into something comfortable, they really didn't have plans to go anywhere else until tomorrow. Tallon had called the post office, and informed them that mail could resume coming to the apartment again. It was set up as a forwarding system: their mail that went to the apartment such as bills or notifications would go to wherever they were stationed on deployment. They didn't get a lot of paper mail, Hector setup online banking and bill pay to make things easier but they did still get some things by mail.

When everything was set, they locked the door to the apartment, drew the shades and curtains so no one would come bother them. They made their way to their bedroom and both laid down with a sigh of content and joy. Finally home and in their bed again, the one they could share unlike the barracks where they slept on bunk beds. They still wanted to consummate their marriage but right now they were honestly just too ired to go through with it. Also, Tallon was worried if Hector was ready or not because of the fact of what Hector went through while captured-nearly being raped and actually had been touched inappropriately, even if it was only for a second, it still happened and he did get defensive when the world molestation was used around him so Tallon wasn't sure if Hector was ready to be intimate.

Tallon had been noticing that Hector was a little more conservative when it came to being dressed. He wasn't going around shirtless anymore, he got himself fully dressed in the shower stall, he even shaved in there. It's like he was ashamed to be seen by anyone because of what happened. Tallon wanted to ask him about it but at the same time-he didn't want to upset him either. For now, they were just going to relax and get back on schedule with being in the civilian life again. Hector laid in Tallon's arms and snuggled up to him.

"I love you," Hector said gently.

"I love you too," Tallon replied softly, Hector lifted his head a bit and kissed his husband deeply, Tallon returned it-then became surprised when Hector deepened it and moved in closer while holding on to Tallon's shirt tightly. After about three minutes of making out, Tallon broke it and looked at him. There was a little light coming in since it was only about 9:30 in the morning, Tallon stared into his husbands eyes for a few seconds.

"Why'd you...stop?" Hector asked him.

"You...wanted to keep going? I thought you were tired and wanted to sleep?" Tallon questioned slightly.

"I want you more than I want sleep," Hector blushed a bit. Tallon blinked some, he didn't expect that answer at all. Hector wanted him? In that way?

"You don't...want to wait a little while?" Tallon as Hector shook his head, "And you're...sure you're ready?" Hector nodded to him.

"We've waited long enough. I want you. Make love to me, Tallon," Hector stared into his eyes. Tallon was shocked but how could he say no? Tallon wanted him too, now he smiled lovingly and kissed Hector deeply-who melted right into it. "You're...sure we locked the door this time?" Hector asked, breaking it quickly.

"Locked, dead bolted, and chained. I made sure my love," Tallon chuckled a bit-recalling that the last time they didn't, they had unexpected visitors walking in on them during a very intimate moment. Now he and Tallon were about to make love for the first time-they really didn't want to be interrupted during that.

(Lemon Warning!)

(Start)

The kissing resumed instantly after Hector was reassured that the door was locked and they wouldn't be bothered. The kisses started simple and gradually changed to deep, loving, passionate ones. Tallon had moved slightly and was over Hector now while they were stuck in a very intense make out session, tongues battling one another for dominance that Tallon won after five minutes or so. Tallon's kisses moved along his jawline softly and then to his husband's neck, this made Hector moan out slightly at the feeling. Tallon's kisses always drove him wild, it was a good portion of the reason they didn't make out while deployed-because Hector wouldn't be able to control himself and want Tallon to take him or at least them sneak away in order to get off. It was likely the only downside the the military for them: that they couldn't do anything sexual, or intimate while on a military base or deployment.

Hector loved the little nips at his neck, he was already getting hard and Tallon could feel it since he was laying on top of his husband. Tallon decided to sit back on his knees and pull Hector up with him so he could get his shirt off of him, and then his own. After both shirts were off, Hector was gently pushed back down on the bed with Tallon over him and the kissing continued. Hector's arms wrapped around his husband's neck pulling him down more, Tallon moved on to the side a bit so he could reached down and rub his hand over Hector's hardening length through his pants.

"Mm, Tal..." Hector moaned softly.

Tallon now unbuttoned Hector's pants, then pulled the zipper down as he slipped his hand in under the elastic waist band of Hector's boxers and stroked him lightly, it only elicited more moans from his husband. Tallon kissed his lover again, then kissed down Hector's bare chest gently and Hector laid his head back while running his fingers through Tallon's short hair with a smile on his face. Tallon smiled as he pulled Hector's pants and boxers down, then off his legs so they were out of the way in a pile on the floor next to the shirts, he moved between Hector's legs and kissed the tip of his length softly before bringing it into his mouth and sucking on him, swirling his tongue around it. Hector moaned out at the feeling, his eyes closing and breathing beginning to pick up. Tallon continued to suck on him, before bringing his hand around the hardened length and stroking him at the same time.

"Gods...Tal...that feels...amazing," Hector panted out. Tallon kept this up about fifteen minutes, he stayed a steady pace so Hector wouldn't cum too quickly, this was the first time they were ever having sex so he wanted it to last as long as possible-but they were both tired from the trip, it seemed intimacy ran stronger than exhaustion. Hector's grip on Tallon's hair increased and Tallon knew his husband was getting closer to climaxing. "Babe...don't stop..." he asked gently. Tallon didn't, he continued until Hector gasped a bit and gripped the bed sheets-Tallon smiled and didn't stop until he felt Hector released in his mouth. Hector's chest rose and fell fast after cumming, his eyes were closed still as Tallon licked him clean and pulled off.

Hector finally looked at him as he forced himself to sit up with a smile and got on his knees while kissing Tallon again while getting Tallon's pants and boxers off, Hector reached for Tallon's erect length and began to stroke him back and forth-this made Tallon moan of course. Hector bent forward some and began to lick his length before sucking on it, Tallon had his hands on Hector's head rocking his hips a bit to move with Hector's motions. "Hec...fuck," Tallon tilted his head back with his eyes closed while his husband sucked him off. At some point, they adjusted themselves so that way Tallon was laying on his back and Hector sucking and stroking him-this only got him closer faster. "Gods yes," he moaned out as Hector started to move faster which made Tallon pant slightly. "Hec...I'm gonna cum," Tallon groaned but Hector kept going until his lover came fast within his mouth, Hector smiled and swallowed it before moving back up and kissing him deeply.

Both of them were panting hard, each having cum one time already and they planned to keep going. Right now was just a small break so they could get ready for the next part. "I love you," Hector said between kisses.

"I love you more," Tallon replied as he wrapped his leg around Hector's and flipped him so he was on his back again. Hector giggled a bit as Tallon's kisses began to assault his neck, Hector's moaning increased again. "Ready to keep going?" Tallon asked after licking his earlobe.

"Yes," Hector told him. Tallon kissed his lips again then moved farther down and slid Hector's legs up to his chest and gave his rear end a kiss, Hector's blush intensified-they'd never gone this far before. It usually stopped after they both got off, this time they were going all the way.

"Get the lube out of the drawer babe," Tallon told him, Hector nodded as he turned to the side slightly and pulled the drawer open, then got the small bottle of lube-he handed it to Tallon then closed the drawer and laid flat on his back again while Tallon popped open the lid and put a little in his hand to rub on Hector's rear, then used the rest on his fingers. "I'm gonna finger you first, okay? Let me know if it starts to hurt too much,"

"I will," Hector told him with a smile. Tallon adjusted himself on his knees and put just his index finger as the entrance of Hector's rear and pushed in slowly. Tallon kept his eyes on Hector's face-he didn't want to hurt him. Granted, he knew it would at first but regardless he didn't want Hector to stay in pain. Hector cringed a bit, his eyes closing from the new intrusion feeling. Tallon slowed down more, he felt Hector tightening which would only make it hurt more.

"Deep breaths, Love...try to relax," Tallon offered. Hector nodded once as he tried to control his breathing and relax his body. Once he did this, it wasn't so bad. Tallon pulled his finger out slightly then pushed back in with two, Hector didn't cringe as much this time which was definitely a good thing. Tallon got his fingers in and began to bring them back and forth slowly.

"Ah!...Tal..." Hector moaned out, breathing heavily.

"Does it hurt?" Tallon asked him gently.

"No...it's okay...keep going, baby. I like it..." Hector told him as Tallon smiled and began to pump his fingers a little faster and hard. "Gods!" Hector yelled out in pleasure, Tallon used his free hand to stroke Hector's length again, this only made the moans louder. Tallon noticed that Hector's cell phone lit up with an incoming call, he chuckled a bit.

"Your brother is calling," Tallon pointed out.

"Don't...care..." Hector moaned as he took his phone and turned it off, then did the same with Tallon's so they couldn't be bothered. Tallon continued to finger Hector with two fingers for about ten minutes, the stroking was getting him close again so Tallon stopped that after five.

"How do you want to do this?" Tallon asked him while slowing his fingering down, this was a reference to them actually having intercourse. There was really no Dom or Sub between them, they did everything equal when it came to pleasuring the other. If Tallon did something to Hector, usually Hector would do it back to Tallon but they'd never been this far before. "We keeping it equal where we do the same things to one another, or do you want me to just stay in control?"

Hector's eyes met his husband's and smiled while placing his hands on Tallon's shoulders gently, "I did tell you to make love to me...so why don't you show much just how much you love me-and that's an order, Lieutenant Furysen," Hector challenged him calmly. Tallon smiled as he leaned in and kissed him deeply.

"Well I won't challenge a direct order then, General Furysen," Tallon whispered as Hector giggled a bit when Tallon reached for the lube again and got more on Hector's rear, and then along his length. "I'll go slow but if you need me to stop a few seconds, tell me?" Hector nodded to him as he held his legs up some, Tallon held his length and placed the head Hector's rear entrance and began to push in slow. Hector cringed and tensed up, he winced gripping the bed tightly in his hand. Gods it hurt so much even with Tallon going slow. Hector could feel the his rear expanding the more Tallon pushed inside him. Hector took a few deep breaths as he tried to relax himself, Tallon felt him loosen a bit and continued to push in. When Tallon was in all the way he leaned down a bit and kissed him gently. "Are you okay? Does it hurt, babe?"

"A-a..little.." Hector replied, "but I'm okay...just go slow," he added a bit shyly.

"Of course," Tallon told him as he began to move his hips back and forth slowly for his husband. Hector winced the first minute or so but then Tallon noticed the sound of pain turning into sounds of pleasure which mean it wasn't hurting anymore, Tallon decided to test the waters and move a bit faster into him-sure enough, Hector moaned out louder. "Does it feel good?"

"Gods...yes..." Hector panted out as his arms moved to Tallon's now and smiled. He loved how it felt, he'd honestly never felt anything better than this. It was new and interesting-he knew for sure he really liked it. Tallon relaxed some now, glad he wasn't hurting his husband-that would kill the entire morning for them. "Mm...Tal! Faster...please go faster," Tallon was happy to oblige him, he began to rock his hips faster and Hector's moans became louder.

"Ssh...we still have neighbors..." Tallon reminded.

"Who...are all...working because it's a weekday..." Hector replied through the heavy breathing. Tallon chuckled a bit as he moved harder along with the increase in speed, Hector didn't seem to mind at all. He started asking for it harder and faster not more than five minutes later. "It feels so good baby! I love you..."

"I love you too!" Tallon moaned with him. They continued this position for about ten minutes and then switched to Hector riding Tallon, that one really got Hector moaning and begging for more from his husband. In this position, Tallon was able to let Hector do most of the actual work while he stroked his lover's length to add to the pleasure. After some time doing that, they moved on to a side by side. This one allowed Hector and Tallon to make out and Tallon to keep playing with Hector's length. The last one they did was with Hector on his hands and knees, this give Tallon full access to go hard and fast as Hector asked for it. They'd been going at it a few hours now-both surprised they were holding out as long as they were in fact but it was 12:30pm and they were reaching their breaking points.

"Tal...I'm gonna cum..." Hector moaned out while Tallon was stroking him fast. They were back in the position they started in. Hector on his back with his legs up against his chest while Tallon had the perfect angle to pound into him if Hector asked him to-which he had a few times so far. They started this at 9:30am, they'd been going three hours straight almost.

"Me too. Do you...want me to finish inside of you...or no?" Tallon grunted a bit.

"It's...up to you. It won't bother me...either way. Gods! Tal...I can't..." Hector arched a bit. Tallon continued his thrusts into his husband, and stroking his cock. It wasn't more than thirty seconds later that Hector came hard, his landing on his stomach as Tallon finished within Hector's rear. Both of them panted hard riding out their orgasms until they were done. Tallon slowly pulled out of Hector and fell beside him as they tried to catch their breath.

(End)

It took almost ten minutes for them to come down from the pleasure high they were feeling, Tallon sat up and got them something to clean off with-Hector went first cleaning his stomach, and then Tallon cleaning his length. They tossed the towel to the laundry basket and pulled on their boxers before cuddling up to one another under the blankets.

"So, was it worth the wait babe?" Tallon asked him softly.

"Definitely worth the wait...and now...I'm so freaking tired," Hector yawned with a smile. Tallon chuckled and kissed his forehead lightly.

"Sleep now, my love." Tallon told him, Hector nodded as he closed his eyes and snuggled close-it didn't take him more than ten minutes to knock out. Tallon laid awake for awhile, just thinking about Hector and everything he had right now. Good career, amazing friends, and his beloved husband. What could be better? They finally got to make love and it was every bit of incredibly they'd dreamed about it being. Their marriage was consummated-six months after the wedding but never the less, they finally consummated it. Now he just wanted to hold his husband and sleep the rest of the day away. They'd likely wake up in a few hours for dinner and then go back to sleep in order to catch up on it. Tallon smiled, he loved Hector with his everything and everything they'd been through was worth it to have what they did right now.
