Finally! The buildup before the fall~


Alfred felt a shiver go through his whole body "…Oh…baby…stick it in please…please" he begged breathily.

Ivan grabbed the lube off of the little table he had left it on and poured some on his cock, smearing the slick with his free hand "How do you want me?" he asked.

"…Ah…deep and rough please…" he wiggled as he heard the noise of lube on his lover's cock and shivered with the promise that the slick sound held.

He smirked as he felt Alfred shift and lifted him to slot his flesh against the twitching hole and slid in until Alfred was fully seated in his lap. He pressed the tanned blond down as he ground up before lowering his head to Alfred's chest "These haven't gotten any attention…" he whispered against one of the little nubs before taking it in his mouth as he rocked into Alfred's shifting hips.

Alfred gripped his hair, screaming low in pleasure. His breath hard and uneven "Baby…please…" he whispered.

Ivan bucked at the tight grip and pulled away only to press Alfred to the bed so he could thrust properly and give him the rough lovemaking that they both needed.

Alfred arched, screaming "MORE! OH BABY! YES!" he ranked his nails down the pale, broad back.

The ashen blond groaned and ground against Alfred with the sharp accent of pain and upped the pace and force.

Alfred knew how to get his lover hornier "…Harder my love" he growled in Russian

The doctor's eyes widened, he had forgotten about that little trait of Alfred's and it caused his cock to throb readily as he held Alfred tightly and vigorously thrust.

Alfred screamed more, nails in his back "AH AH AH BABY AH THERE OH BABY AH CLOSE!"

Ivan was pleased to hear the passionate screams as his own end was hurtling closer as well and he pressed on and latched onto Alfred's neck firmly.

Alfred let out a small squeak and gripped his hair "Ah…come on…ah…I'm right there…" he was about to let go.

He pulled back from his neck with a smirk, tempted to slow down and tease them both but the sharp tug that forced him closer tossed that idea aside. He grabbed Alfred's thighs and spread them further, trying to get deeper with each thrust, and nibbled the edge of his love's jaw.

Alfred screamed and released, shaking and clinging to his darling "…I love you…"

"I love you too" Ivan muttered in return, brushing his lips along the shell of his ear as he slowed his hips to a smooth roll to enjoy the tightness until he filled the hot tunnel. Ivan groaned and joined their lips as they both relaxed.

Alfred smiled, rubbing his head gently "…Your warmth makes my belly feel better" he whispered

"I'm glad" Ivan said with a smile as he wrapped his arms around Alfred and rolling slightly to rest on their sides "you make all of me feel better."

Alfred giggled "Cheesy man" he smooched all over his face before snuggling into his neck. His hand rubbing the strong muscle on his arm "…I'm scared of tomorrow Vanya…the court case."

He laughed as Alfred scattered kisses across his face and had the urge to tickle him again until the shorter man settled in his neck. He trailed a hand along his side soothingly and nodded "I am too but once it's done, he will be out of our lives and we will be free to have a family safely."

Alfred snuggled closer "…Just…protect me tomorrow…I know they will show that video…I don't want to hear it…I…don't want to see it…" he whispered, happy this day had finally come but still scared.

"I will, I hope that they won't show it to the court and only to the jury but…no matter what, I will protect you as well as I possibly can" Ivan tried to reassure and comfort his worried love.

He snuggled him close, kissing his neck "…Thank you…hopefully it goes by fast…" he yawned.

"I hope so, there should be no doubt in anyone's mind that he deserves the worst that they can sentence, especially with everyone else that he has affected as well…" Ivan ran his fingers through the sunny blond strands "and afterward we can do whatever you like to take our minds off of it."

"…Can we go to the beach?" he looked up at his lover, eyes loving at his protector.

"That sounds wonderful, though the water will be too cold this time of year" Ivan smiled a bit "but it is still a new area and we can spend the night there and look around."

"Good…" he snuggled close "hmm good night my love…" he whispered, kissing his neck

"Goodnight love" Ivan kissed Alfred's temple and closed his eyes for a moment before something occurred to him "do you want me to make breakfast tomorrow?" he asked, unsure if the smell would make Alfred sick again.

"I'll cook it…we will trade days…tomorrow is my turn…" he relaxed, Ivan was so warm. It was putting him to sleep so quickly.

"I should be catering to you" Ivan mumbled before yawning, he knew he should be planning their vacation and wedding but the allure of warmth and everything that was Alfred was too tempting to tear himself away.

Alfred was out, lightly breathing.
Zeus, thinking Ivan was asleep, hopped on the bed and snuggled up behind Alfred. Gently nudging his back before he went still. Alfred placed a hand on Ivan's chest, lightly feeling his heart in his sleep.

Ivan listened for a response, opening his eyes and glancing down when he received none and found his little love already dozing off. He smiled and, after Zeus snuck in and settled down, closed his eyes and went to rest from the long day.

Alfred only slept for a few hours. Between the belly pain and the worry of tomorrow he was up. He got up at six to cook. Zeus followed him, relaxing by his owner. "…Ivan loves bacon…" he smiled at Zeus, getting breakfast ready.

The Russian stretched in his sleep and tried to curl an arm around Alfred but frowned slightly when he couldn't feel anything; a quick shift and snatch of a pillow settled him back down quickly enough and he dozed off again.

Alfred finished an hour later, coming into the room. "…Vanya…" he whispered, hand on his slightly larger belly. "…Two people wish for you to wake up…" he sat on the bed, kissing Ivan's nose.

Ivan stirred with the touch and released the captive pillow as he stretched again, opening his eyes with a slow smile "Good morning Alik" he said sleepily.

"…Hmm good morning Vanya…the little one tells me to tell daddy it's time to eat…" he leaned over, pressing his lips against Ivan's.

He reciprocated the kiss happily and sat up once they had parted "I had planned to make you breakfast, you beat me to it" he laughed "but I certainly am hungry." He gave Alfred another soft kiss "Thank you for making it" and rested his hand on the little belly "and thank you for passing the message" he chuckled.

Alfred giggled, standing "…She is getting bigger…" he lifted his shirt "…those pills are making me gain some weight…" he stretched.

The Russian knelt down and gave the slowly growing bump a kiss "That's fantastic" he answered with a little nuzzle "especially with how thin you are."

Alfred smiled, nodding "…I'm finally gaining weight" he rubbed Ivan's head "…hmm she likes daddy's kisses…instant pain reliever."

His smile spread at the positive response and the affectionate rub "Then I will just have to smother you with kisses" he said as he pulled Alfred into a soft and loving kiss.

Alfred wrapped his arms around Ivan, kissing him deeply. He had a smile on his face, hugging him close.

Ivan lifted Alfred mid-kiss and carried him to the kitchen, sitting him down on the center island with a smile "As much as I would love to dive into you we can't ignore the little one's demands for food."

"…This is true…and…"
Charles came around the corner.
"…Charles stopped by…" he got off the counter, going to make Ivan a plate.
"Hey Ivan" he held his hand out to shake it.

Ivan blushed lightly at the unexpected company and shook the man's hand as he wished desperately he had at least grabbed a pair of boxers before walking out with Alfred.

Alfred handed Ivan boxers, standing in front of him "…Now Charles…sit down…I'll make you a plate…" he looked at Ivan "he is here to make sure we don't run…"

He slipped on the provided cloth with a mumbled "Thanks" and furrowed his brows as Alfred explained. He turned his gaze to the policeman "As I said, we will be there on time."

"…" he put his hands up "…your husband already explained…the court sent me… Alfred is a runner so they made me…"
Alfred rolled his eyes, making plates. He held them out to Charles and Ivan.

"Thank you" he said as he took the plate handed to him "Alfred certainly has good reasons to avoid the trial but I know we are required to attend since he is the key victim in what that man is guilty of."

"…They are showing the video during the judging…to everyone." Charles didn't wanted to tell them but he knew that they had the right to know and prepare themselves mentally.
Alfred started, his hand resting on his belly "…Th-they can't…that…may trigger me…or…ah…" he shook a bit.

Ivan tensed and wrapped a protective arm around Alfred "They can't do that. The only people who need to see it are the judge and jury. There is no reason to put the audience, and especially Alfred, through that traumatic tape" he growled firmly.

Charles put his hands up again "That is why they sent me. If Alfred knew he wouldn't go. The court is small…not random people other than the jury. Arthur's parents and some of his family…Alfred has no living family…due to his father murdering them years ago…"
Alfred held his head, shaking. He couldn't do it…he…the pain of that…what those men did…but…Arthur would be in jail… "…I'll do it…" he sniffed.
Charles looked at Alfred "Al…"
"If it puts him in jail…and I can grow old with Ivan and my child…then I can relive it one more time…"

"They can't force you to watch it" Ivan said softly "we can step out for that part and return when it's over. I will not allow anyone to put you through that again" he stood and wrapped his arms around Alfred, knowing that his recent clinging may be unwanted but it was the only thing Ivan could think to do; wrap himself around Alfred and protect him from the world. "Once it is over, everything will be over and we will be free to live however we want."

Alfred nodded, hugging him close. He snuggled into his chest "…Just one more court date…then we are free…" he whispered more so to himself.
Charles sighed "Come eat Al…don't stress yourself and the baby out…Ivan and I won't let anything happen to you" he smiled.

Ivan sent a thankful smile over his shoulder before kissing the top of Alfred's head "Let's eat before she gets mad alright love, then we can go to the beach and relax."

Alfred smiled, nodding. He rubbed his little bump as he sat down next to where Ivan was sitting with his own plate. He began to eat.
Charles smiled "…Good…don't want to make her mad haha I learned that with my niece."

"Do you have any tips for soon-to-be parents?" Ivan asked as he returned to his own plate, knowing that neither himself nor Alfred had much, if any, experience with raising kids and it wouldn't hurt to ask.

"…It's more so…you get it when you have one…mother and father instinct…but I mean…spoil them but be ready to discipline…" he nodded

Ivan nodded "She will certainly be spoiled but when she gets older hopefully there won't be a problem with teaching her."

"…That's all there is to know" he smiled.
Alfred finished his food and stood, kissing Ivan's cheek with a smile as he shook his hips a bit to the kitchen. He took his morning pills and began to clean the dishes.
Charles raised an eyebrow "He okay?"

"I believe so, I think it's stress but after everything is over I can take care of him properly" he answered, glancing over and watching Alfred. He finished his own plate and joined Alfred in the kitchen to help clean up.

Alfred smiled at Ivan "…I can clean those" he gently took what Ivan cleaned and dried them off for him so Ivan was the one washing and Alfred was drying.

Ivan smiled "Thank you love" he said as he continued with the other dishes and pans "do you want to shower once we are done?" he asked.

"…Sounds great…if you don't mind showering with a fatty…" he teased, not meaning it. He liked that he was gaining weight. He almost felt better.

He chuckled "The moment I do anything but love you is the moment I get killed on the spot for thinking anything bad about an angel."

Alfred blushed "…You are a hopeless romantic" he winked. "Come shower with me…" he pulled him by his boxers.

"Only for you" he answered honestly with a loving smile as he was led back to the bedroom but the stretchy fabric. "We will be there on time" he called out, hoping that the man wouldn't feel the need to escort them to the court and they could shower peacefully.

Charles chuckled "Yeah, yeah…don't tire Alfred out with that thing in your pants" he called, leaving.
Alfred pushed Ivan's pants down "…Hmm ignore him" he kissed Ivan's lips.

Ivan blushed as he was reminded that the man had seen every piece of him. He returned the kiss as he heard the door close but his blush stayed bold.

"…Why are you blushing my love? I've already seen you" he whispered, smiling more.

"Yes but since you came into my life it's like I'm more comfortable naked than clothed and I think nothing of walking out of the bedroom wearing nothing…" Ivan answered softly with a little shake of his head in disbelief.

"…Hmm I like it though… Just have to kick people out" he winked, rubbing his naked chest.

Ivan chuckled "I can agree to that…" he ran his hands down Alfred's back, feeling the curve and the dip above his ass and his smile widened before his fingers slipped under the hem of the loose pants and dropped them down.

"…Well…" he smirked "now I'm naked…what a predicament…" he giggled.

"…It's a great opportunity that we must take advantage of" Ivan retaliated and picked Alfred up before setting him in the shower and jumping in with him. He mindlessly turned the water on and yelped at the icy water that automatically raced out. Ivan stepped to the back, guiding Alfred with him to wait for the water to warm up.

Alfred laughed "Hmmm water is a bit cold there my Russian…us Americans don't like that" he giggled.

He laughed lightly "Even we don't like it that cold but…while we wait for it to warm…" he trailed off and joined their lips in a firm but easy kiss as he held his hips.

Alfred wrapped his arms around his neck, gently pulling his hair as his lips moved with his lover's "Ah…" he whispered.

"I like that you pull my hair" he whispered against his lips with a gentle smirk; his hands unconsciously pressing into the softened hips comfortably, happy with what little weight Alfred had been able to gain so far.

"…I like that you like it…" he whispered against Ivan's lips, burying his fingers in the loose locks.

"You are the first to use it to guide me" he whispered with a smirk "it's the perfect encouragement when paired with those passionate noises you make" he teased, pressing Alfred closer and lowering his head to nibble along his jaw.

"…Lower big boy…" he pulled his hair, making him go lower to his neck. "…I like when you mark me" he shivered, sliding a leg up to his thigh.

"I love marking you, showing the world that we are together and how proudly you wear my mark" Ivan purred against his neck, scattering love bites and re-mapping the most sensitive spots.

Alfred shivered, panting "Careful big boy…" he shivered "…I'll want that dick before we leave."

"Careful…you'll get my hopes up…but we're on a time limit" he smiled against his neck before sucking firmly as he slid his leg further between Alfred's.

Alfred shivered, spread his legs for his lover. He pulled himself up, wrapping his legs around Ivan "…I'm still wet from last night…" he whispered. He pulled Ivan's half hard cock, sliding down on it. "Ah…hmm time to wake up" he whispered, waiting for Ivan to get fully hard in him "Ah damn" he pulled his hair hard, fingers pleasantly wrapped in the loose, damp strands.

Ivan exhaled roughly, not expecting Alfred to take him so quickly. He laughed breathily "I'm certainly awake now, no doubts about that" he started to thrust lightly but the gentleness didn't last long with Alfred's return grinding and the rough tugging of his hair.

Alfred whimpered, spreading his legs "…Ahh please baby!" he pulled his hair more as he bounced a bit to meet his thrust.

The Russian pressed a hand against the back of the shower and another on Alfred's thigh to support him and thrust roughly, wet slaps accenting each meeting of their hips.

Alfred arched, drooling a bit "Ah…close my love…so sensitive…" he grunted.

"Come, I'm not far…" he panted out, voice husky as he felt himself throb, desire pulsing desperately as he tried to pull Alfred over the edge before Ivan found his own end.

Alfred pulled his hair more as be let out a loud screaming "AH!" he pulled himself closer as he released on Ivan's stomach.

The pull and splash of heat across his stomach was all the push Ivan needed to groan loudly and fill Alfred to dripping "I love you…" he panted out, kissing Alfred's shoulder lightly.

Alfred hugged his sweet husband close "I love you so much…" he whispered, smiling. "…You are my strength…I will not be scared at the court today…" he whispered, smiling into Ivan's shoulder.

Ivan smiled "And you are my strength" he answered, wrapping the arm not supporting them around Alfred "and I will protect you as much as I can."

"…I'm not afraid of him anymore…" he smiled, kissing the large shoulder "…but he will fear me…"

"I hope you wait on what you're planning, it will be hard to hide anything from the court" he chuckled.

Alfred smiled "…Just preparing in case he shows his ass."

"He always is" Ivan smirked "but there's no harm in being prepared" he agreed.

Alfred nodded, smiling "Yes, I'll have my act good then wait for him to fuck up."

"And I will be right there with you doing what I can to protect you and ruin him…though if it comes to physical contact, leave it to me. We can't have him touching you with his track record of abuse" he laid a protective hand on Alfred's belly.

"Yes" he smiled, snuggling into his neck.

"Good" Ivan smiled and kissed Alfred shoulder before pulling away "now we actually need to get clean and head out if we want to get there on time" he chuckled.

"…Hmm let's go" he kissed his cheek, standing slowly after pulling Ivan out of him.

Ivan hummed, eyes lowering for a moment at the sensation before they each lathered up and started to wash each other.

Alfred finished cleaning and smiled "Feel clean my love?" he giggled.

He nodded with a smile and tugged Alfred under the spray with him as they rinsed off the white suds "How about you?" he asked with a subtle smirk, grabbing his ass and giving it a little squeeze "all clean?"

"Hmmm not when you grab my butt like that…" he winked, kissing his chest. "We should get dressed my love."

Ivan chuckled "I know, I know but I would much rather stay here and tease you" he brushed their noses together and shut off the water "but we can play once we get to the beach" he said and handed Alfred a towel to dry off.

Alfred took it and gently cleaned himself "…Hmm break in the hotel bed?" he dried his hair

"The bed, the wall, the door…" Ivan trailed off with a smirk as he grabbed some clothes and started to dress.

"…Well I can't wait for tonight…" the blond purred, grabbing his own clothes.

"I might just get too excited and run off with you mid-way through the trial" he played, though there was a part of him that wished he really could.

"Don't tease" he smiled as he pulled on his shirt as he finished getting ready. "Well, I am as ready as I will be" he purred

"I'm sorry love" he said with a soft smile as he finished dressing. He grabbed his keys and Alfred's hand "There are a million things I would rather be doing with you but we can save it for after court."

Alfred smiled and nodded. He left with Ivan and was taken to the courthouse. Alfred had to sit at the table next to Arthur with Charles and Ivan.
"Turning daddy in?" he smirked at Alfred.
Alfred smiled and looked at Arthur "Why would I put Ivan in jail?"
Arthur growled as Charles snickered "…Watch it bitch."
Alfred gave a dark smirked "I'm not scared of you Arthur…if you start stuff…we will be in jail together…and I'll have fun killing you" he spat, hand on his belly.

"Careful" Ivan warned firmly, though there was a slight smirk that took the edge of it off "we still have a wedding to plan" he said wrapping his arm around Alfred and pulling him closer.

Alfred smiled, snuggling closer to Ivan "Sorry my love…" he blushed.
The judge came in and sat down. Listening first to Arthur's lawyer then Charles.
Alfred was called to the stand. He shook a bit but walked up there, sitting. They asked him to detail his rapes and beatings…the losses of children. Alfred's face fell when they started to show the video, Arthur smirking wide while people gasped in horror. Alfred shook more.
"Was any of this staged Mr. Jones? Or did you instigate it?" Arthur's lawyer asked as the video played in the background, screams and protests plainly audible to all in the tense room.
Alfred was tearing up "I…I didn't want to have sex with them…I…it was rape."
The lawyer nodded "Did you not sleep in the house and bed with Mr. Kirkland that night?"
Charles stood "Objection."
The judge put his hand up
"…I had nowhere to go." He looked down "I…was in too much pain."
The lawyer rolled his eyes "…You have an extensive record of sexual partners Mr. Jones. Why are we to believe these individuals were not?"
Alfred started in horror "I was raped and have had several miscarriages thanks to that monster." Tears fell and his voice started to crack as he explained.
"…Seems you are getting emotional Mr. Jones." He narrowed his eyes "Isn't true you slept with your doctor as well? Mr. Braginsky?"
Alfred nodded "My fiancé…" he corrected.
"And this adds to the list of individuals…"
Alfred growled "How about you mind your own fucking business of what I do in my bedroom."
The lawyer shifted "…I think there is not enough to say that Mr. Arthur is not innocent…unlike you Mr. Jones…who has just as extensive a parent list as a victim list. How many people have you murdered?"
Alfred's eye twitched "…"
Charles stood "Sir these are unrelated questions, Mr. Jones is not the one on trial for his prior crimes" a barely audible groan interrupted his train of thought "and will you turn that damn video off?! Kirkland is rubbing himself to it."

Ivan was stunned once the questions started, not only the details that he wasn't aware of but with the reactions, disbelief, and accusation coming from the defense. He tried to pull Alfred away when the video started but they were stopped by a barrage of more questions and Ivan sat down again until he too came up and they mentioned that their relationship started while he was Alfred's doctor. He was about to speak up about it when Arthur's current activity was brought to his attention and he grimaced when he heard the raspy breath the ashen blond had just started to notice.
The attention seemed to spur Arthur on for a moment before the tension broke and his lawyer snapped at him and they finally ended the video about halfway though.
Ivan stood and grabbed Alfred's lawyer's attention with a firm grip on his shoulder "May I explain Alfred's behaviour at the institution as his doctor?" he asked, knowing it was more the judge's decision but he figured that the man could word his request better.

The lawyer nodded "I call Ivan to the stand."
Alfred was helped down by Charles who gave him some water and a gentle back rub to calm him while Ivan was talking.
"…Now Mr. Braginsky, can you tell me about Mr. Jones' behavior in the facility?"
Alfred shook, looking at Ivan. He wanted to go home.
