Hi again!
So, I`ve made some changes to this chapter during the last couple of days:
First of all, I`m sorry to say that the end of it is pretty sad; the actual scene was originally planned to come in chapter 23, but after making some other changes I decided to use it in this one.
Secondly; my original plan for this chapter was to open it with Sulley and Randall waking up "the morning after", and then just briefly explain what had happened between them during the night. It was supposed to have been "a little awkward, a little embarrassing, but overall a good experience for both". Cute.
Then I changed my mind. I decided to just "go for it" and have some fun – Sulley and Randall`s first time is a thing worth describing, I couldn`t just leave it! Forgive me.
While writing parts of the first scene I was PM-ing with Agentwhite, who had some good ideas – I was allowed to use them, so thank you very much, my dear;)
A great thanks to thatdoodlebug as well, for making my story such a lovely drawing! I love it:) You`re awesome!
Okay, that`s all I have to say for now, I think… I hope you will enjoy the new chapter, here it comes. This is going to be awkward… *hides face*
Chapter 22: First Time
They were both sure they wanted it.
Soft hands brushed against purple scales. A tail caressed blue fur. The kisses were passionate and the breathing was getting heavier.
Sulley and Randall both appeared to be very eager, and the insecurity they were feeling didn`t even show anymore; until they made it into the bedroom and sat down on the mattress. That was the moment both monsters realized that this was actually happening. The moment both remembered that they were actually quite shy. And the moment both started wondering exactly what they were going to do here.
"…can we turn off the light..?"
Sulley, who didn`t feel like seeing, or showing, everything just yet, spoke in a rather thin voice for a monster of his size. And while the scaly one turned the lamps off, the blue one hid beneath the covers;
"…it`s a little cold in here..!"
Coming from the furriest monster in town, that excuse didn`t make much sense to Randall. But however, since he wasn`t too keen on full exposure just yet himself, he simply grinned awkwardly and climbed onto the bed himself, pulling the covers all the way up to his chin;
"…brrrr…you`re right..!"
He wanted to punch himself; he was pathetic.
For a short moment, they lay wordlessly side by side in the dark. The atmosphere was awkward to say the least.
Eventually, Randall was the one to make things happen; the scaly monster realized that at some point one of them had to make the first move, and it could might as well be him. He reached out and took Sullivan`s hand in his own, giving it a soft squeeze; then he leaned over and kissed the other monster again – gentle at first, then slightly more aggressively.
Sulley kissed him back in the same manner, and Randall moaned – he was already feeling quite aroused, but the beating of his heart came from a high level of anxiety as well; this was nerve racking.
They fumbled around beneath the covers for a little while. The room was too dark for seeing, so they were using other senses instead; insecure hands felt their way, testing, trying to find out what felt good. Lips touched lips. Ears discovered new sounds.
"…what do you want me to do..?"
Sulley whispered anxiously between the kisses, and Randall couldn`t tell whether the shaky voice came from arousal or nerves - and when the purple one spoke himself, he discovered that his own voice didn`t sound much better;
"I…I don`t know..!"
"…do you want me to stop..?" Sulley let go of Randall and moved a few inches backwards, afraid of pushing him.
"No! No, I want you…it`s just…new, that`s all…don`t worry…"
Randall leaned closer and tried to kiss the other one again, to assure him everything was alright. Unfortunately, the room was so dark he accidentally kissed Sullivan`s cheek instead of his lips, causing his own mouth to fill up with hair. It led to some serious coughing from the scaly one, and at one point Sulley thought he was choking; he grabbed hold of his friend to rescue him, and started patting what he thought was his back rather violently.
Still coughing, Randall broke away from Sullivan`s grip and started feeling his way with all four of his arms, trying to reach the light-switch by the side of the bed;
"That`s it..! I want to do it in the dark too, but I don`t plan to risk my health…"
He turned on the lamp on the night-stand, and the weak bulb illuminated the room just enough for Sulley to realize that he had been punching Randall`s stomach instead of back;
"I-I`m sorry..! Are you okay?"
"Yeah…" The lizard was still a little short of breath as he continued;
"…are you..?"
"Sure..!"
After a short break to catch his breath, Randall slithered back into Sullivan`s arms, determined to finish what they had started; and this time he didn`t miss his mouth.
While kissing passionately, the furry monster began to run his hands up and down the other`s body; until he touched something - something unfamiliar, which felt very different from the scales. The feeling caused Sulley to withdraw straight away and Randall to inhale sharply; his hands closed harder around the fur, as he pulled the other monster closer again;
"…d-don`t…don`t stop..!"
The blue monster felt as if his heart was on its way up his throat as he reached back down to touch whatever awaited him beneath the sheets. What he discovered took him by surprise, and for a moment he just stared at his partner`s face, silently questioning what he was supposed to do next, until he eventually managed to formulate a question;
"I, ummm…do…do I…" He bit his own lip;
"…do I…touch both..?"
"Do whatever you want..!" Randall tried his best to sound normal, but he looked a bit more nervous than earlier.
"But I`m asking you what you want..! Do you want me to touch them both?"
Randall pulled an awkward grimace that was meant to come out as a smile;
"…yes…please…"
More fumbling, kissing and awkward touching followed. Sulley touched Randall, eyes tightly shut, and the lizard closed his own emerald ones as well and touched the blue monster back. It went on for a long time; it was as if both of them were trying to delay what was yet to come, out of pure nervousness. The covers were still pulled all the way up.
Eventually, Sulley realized that this time, it was probably his turn to make a move. He opened his eyes, only to see that Randall`s were still shut, and whispered;
"H-how…do you want to do this..?"
"What do you want, Sullivan..?"
"I…want you to be pleased..! What do you like..?"
Randall looked terrified, and showed no signs of responding to the question. He did open his eyes, though.
"Randall..! What do you like..?"
"I-I…Can`t you just do…something..?"
The purple monster was breathing quite heavily now, and was still hiding beneath the covers. Sulley didn`t do much better, and as he continued, his voice shook;
"…w-we don`t have to d-do this if you don`t want to..!"
Once again, the worry; Randall closed his eyes, opened them again, and as he started talking again, his voice was back to normal;
"Damn it Sullivan, quit worrying! I`ve told you I want it!" He drew a deep breath;
"…now, get on top of me! If you want…" He added the last sentence rather awkwardly, and pulled the most anxious smile Sulley had ever seen before in his life.
Despite the tension, the blue monster was happy that Randall had finally told him what to do, and he slowly moved himself over on top of the lizard-monster, being very careful not to crush him with his weight. That would have been the only thing missing right now; the image of the two of them rushing off to hospital almost made him laugh.
Having Sullivan on top caused Randall to freeze for a moment, and the blue one kissed him again to "wake him up". Then he let out another "are you sure", which caused the purple one to send him an ugly stare;
"Don`t..! I want it!"
"Okay..!" Sulley smiled defensively.
Then nothing happened. They simply remained in the same positions for a little while. Randall noticed that Sullivan looked puzzled, and when he started to lift the covers, the purple one asked him what was wrong.
"Where do I…" Sulley started, still with an insecure smile. Finding suitable words was difficult.
Luckily, Randall was able to figure out the rest himself;
"…enter..?"
"Yeah..?"
Being surprisingly calm, the lizard led the other one`s hand downwards to show him. And as he did, he accidentally caught a glimpse of something – something that instantly increased his heartbeat and breathing; and his level of nervousness.
"Here..?"
Sullivan`s touch caused his breathing to go even faster.
"…y-yeah…"
Randall tried to calm down his own pulse, but couldn`t help but being a little freaked out; this situation was one thing, the size of what he had just spotted was something else. However, he was still pretty determined he wanted this to happen;
"…yeah…there…"
Sulley kissed him again; this was it. What they were both waiting for was only seconds away now. Randall felt how his breathing was going out of control. His heart was beating in a range he had never experienced before. His vision started to blur. His head started to spin. His breathing went up yet another level.
Then everything went black.
"I`m sorry…"
Randall looked at Sulley through tired, heavy-lidded eyes.
They were lying side by side with the covers pulled all the way up again, and Sulley was stroking the other monster`s arm beneath the sheets;
"It`s okay…don`t think about it…it…happens..!"
Randall blushed. He wanted to sink down into the mattress and die;
"…I seriously doubt that fainting is a normal reaction, Sullivan…"
"Randall – it`s fine…" Sulley kept on stroking his arm;
"…you don`t have to think about it…there`ll be other chances…"
"There will..?" Randall sent him a questioning glare.
"Of course there will..! This experience hasn`t scared you from doing this again, has it..?"
"Well…I must admit, I don`t wanna do exactly this again…"
Sulley kissed him; "You know what I mean..!"
Randall returned the kiss, happy that Sullivan even wanted to see him again after what had just happened;
"Yeah…I know… Remember to bring some cold water to wake me up with next time…"
Sulley chuckled;
"I thought you said you weren`t funny..? But seriously Randall, next time will be better, I`m sure…at least it can`t be worse -"
"Can we not talk about tonight for a little while..?"
The larger monster pulled him closer to his chest;
"Sure."
They both closed their eyes and for the first time in the past couple of hours, Randall felt relaxed. He cuddled himself up against the soft fur and let out a relived sigh;
"Sullivan..?"
"Yeah..?"
"I`m glad you`re here…"
"So am I, Randall…"
A little pause followed.
"Can you stay tonight..?"
"I`d love to…"
No more words passed between them, but none were needed. They were lying close together, and before they even knew, they were both sound asleep.
Waking up in someone`s arms was a new experience Sulley and Randall both treasured. It was the morning after their first attempt at making love, and despite the fact that it had been quite embarrassing, this morning was perfect.
The only slightly awkward moment was when Rex came running through the door to wake his uncle up, and discovered that a third monster was present. However, the little one didn`t seem to give it much thought; he was happy to see his "best fwiend" as well, and climbed onto the bed to give away hugs and forgot all about asking questions – and when Sulley told him that "his uncle had suffered from some bad coughing last night, and that he simply had stayed to look after him", Rex smiled and asked if Ulley was a doctor. Then he had spent a long time telling the adults about a time he had seen a doctor who had pinched his finger with a needle and then given him a lollipop which he had later dropped on the floor and then Sophie had made him pancakes and then he was happy. Then he had asked if they could have pancakes for breakfast, before finally asking Ulley if he could move in and live with them.
While they were all in the bed, the phone in the kitchen started ringing and Randall looked irritated;
"Sullivan, will you get that? I`m sure it`s for you…"
"Why would it be for me? It`s your apartment..!"
"…who the he -" Randall suddenly remembered that Rex was present;
"…heck would be calling me..? All my friends are here with me right now! It`s probably Wazowski wondering where you are, can you go answer it please?"
"…fine…"
Sulley got out of bed and hurried into the kitchen to answer the phone. Randall was left with Rex, who wasn`t done talking yet;
"…Ulley`s ma best fweind! And you`we ma best uncle! When the doctow pinch ma fingew, thewe was blood..! I`m bwave. Unca Wandall, have you evew seen a doctow? Is not scawy. Just the needles..! I`m scawed of needles, but I`m mowe scawed of cwocodiles, and -"
Randall closed his eyes again, paying only half attention to what Rex was going on about; he was still a little tired, and his head felt heavy – which wasn`t strange at all, come to the fact that he had fainted last night.
He didn`t know for how long he was lying next to a babbling Rex with his eyes closed, but eventually it was Sullivan who touched his shoulder to wake him up;
"Randall".
"What..?" He opened his eyes, and as he did, he noticed the clock on the night-stand;
"Oh, work..! Right, we need to get ready!"
"No..! We…we`re not going to work today..!"
"Why, we have to! It`s my first real day, and you`re CEO – we have to go!"
"Randall -" Sulley sat down beside him, and the lizard suddenly noticed the tone he was talking in; there was something about the way he had said his name. Something was wrong.
"…we have to go to the hospital..!"
Randall froze immediately and was about to ask what was going on, when Sulley held up his hand and took a look at Rex, before adding, just loud enough for Randall to hear;
"Get him out first..!"
"Rex..?" Randall`s voice was a little shaky, and he hurried to say what he had to say before panicking;
"…can you help me make breakfast today..? I think we`ll have…cake..! You know the one in the fridge? Can you go get it?"
Rex nodded, but he looked a little upset; he had realized that something wasn`t right with the grown-ups.
"It`s okay, Rex..!" Randall gave his nephew a pat on the shoulder, and Rex got up and headed for the kitchen.
The purple monster started questioning Sulley the very moment Rex left the room, but the big monster placed a finger on his lips and started whispering;
"Look Randall, I don`t know exactly what`s happened, but…the doctor called, and…Sophie`s…not doing so good…"
"What does that mean?"
"I don`t know, to be honest…he just said…that you and Rex should head over there – as quick as possible…"
Randall fell silent for a little moment. His eyes widened;
"…why…why did he say that..?"
"I don`t know…"
Sulley bit his lip; deep inside, he did know. And he knew Randall did, too. More silence followed, and then Rex came back with the cake. Randall lifted him back up in the bed, and tried his best to smile;
"…Rex…would you like to visit mum today..?"
"Yeah!"
The little monster`s smile stretched all the way across his face, and the sight of it caused Randall to blink away some tears he could feel gathering;
"…great..! Sullivan..?" He swallowed;
"…are you coming with us..?"
Sulley, who was also struggling to hold back some tears, looked from Randall to Rex and then back at Randall again; and the purple one`s facial expression made it very easy to make a decision.
"Of course I am...!"
*removes hands from face veeeery slowly to face you all again*
Okay… That was chapter 22, the hardest one to write so far!
I need opinions! Reviews, PMs, tumblr-asks…you name it. On everything, but especially (yeah, you guessed it) the sex-scene. If you can even call it that. God, I hope no one`s mad.
The next chapter will be sad. I`m so sorry, but it will. I don`t know exactly when it will be ready, but I guess by the middle of next week (Tuesday or Wednesday). I hope I`ll see you then:) There are only three more chapters and an epilogue to come now.
BTW, I finally got my MU-DVD on Tuesday! Yay! There`s NO bonus material on it (can you believe it?), but I`m still enjoying it very much. Randy should have gotten more screen-time, though…
Take care until next time:)
