When they'd first gotten together as lovers, Ryo remembered protesting and telling Dee to get off him because he was too heavy. He'd felt a little trapped at the time, still trying to get used to the intimacy between them. Now though, in the afterglow that followed another passionate encounter, as Dee shifted to roll off him, Ryo tightened his arms around his lover.
"Stay."
"You sure?" Dee raised up on one elbow, peering down into Ryo's face, searching for any evidence of discomfort. "I don't wanna squash ya."
"You're not." Ryo smiled lazily. "I just want to stay like this for a bit."
"That's fine with me, but if I start feelin' too heavy, tell me and I'll roll us over. You can squash me instead."
"We can try that in a bit, just not right now. I like having you close like this."
"You didn't used to."
"I wasn't used to it then, the intimacy, the way you make me feel. It scared me a little, I needed to know I could get away if it all got too much to handle, and I couldn't with you on top of me."
"And now?"
"Now, it's never too much."
