Aria hadn't taken well to sea life at first - the motion of the ship rolling on the waves had done nothing for his health and he'd been rather poorly. They'd been at sea a while now and he'd become used to it.

He'd spent a lot of time with Morgan during the day when he could, but he'd been sure to retire to his own room each evening.

This evening he'd settled himself against the ships railing to watch the sun set on the horizon and then spotted a pod of dolphins. He'd never seen the sea mammals in the flesh before, he'd heard about them, but this was his first sight. He was enchanted by them and completely lost track of time as he watched them weaving and and leaping about the waves made in the ship's wake.

"Frequently," Andrew answered. "You might want to sip that gently. It's got gin in it." He brought out a tray of crudites for them with a dip made of olive oil and balsamic vinegar and spices. He'd prepared it knowing that Andrew was a vegetarian.

"Oops, thank you for the warning," Aria laughed. "Oh Andrew, these look lovely. You're so wonderful."

Aria picked at the food a little, feeling quite hungry. "How long do you think it will be before we reach New York?"

"Thank you, sir," Andrew said. "I've been working on procuring more vegan recipes that I can cook for you. I have a Cassoulet on the stove and I've come up with a chocolate cake that I think you'll like, sir. It contains no eggs or dairy."

"Thank you, Andrew," Morgan smiled. His valet was quite caring. "We should make landfall in New York three or four more days." He took a sip of his own drink.

"Goodness, you're much too kind to me , Andrew. Thank you."

Aria sighed contently, feeling so happy and relaxed. He looked at Morgan and smiled. "Three days... I will have to make the most of having you to myself then, I suppose."

Andrew smiled, "You're most welcome." He went back to the kitchen.

Morgan set down his drink and moved over to Aria. "May I kiss you?"

Aria nodded, smiling. "Yes, please, I'd like you to."

He leaned forward, kissing Aria on the lips. At first the kiss was almost chaste. Then he deepened it.

Aria couldn't remember the last time he'd wanted or enjoyed a kiss so much. He parted his lips a little for Morgan, kissing him back with barely supressed desire.

He slid his arms around Aria, the kisses becoming more passionate. When their lips parted, "I think it would be best if you came to my room."

Aria nodded wordlessly, his cheeks already flushed with want.

He took Aria's hand, lacing his fingers with the younger man's and led him to his room. He reached to unbutton Aria's shirt.

Aria followed him hurriedly, then once in the room he kissed him once more.
The blonde allowed Morgan to unbutton his shirt, his skin felt cold with nerves. He had no reason to be nervous, he'd done this so many times, it had been his living, but he couldn't remember the last time he'd wanted it for himself.

He divested Aria of his shirt, his fingers touching the soft, smooth skin of the younger man's chest. He bent to kiss Aria's neck.

Aria swallowed as Morgan touched him, tilting his head to bare his neck for the kisses.

Aria's hands pulled Morgan closer so he could unfasten the buttons of his shirt and begin to undress him.
"You're as beautiful as I remember...."

"As are you," Morgan whispered. He had been waiting so long to love him. He didn't want to frighten the boy by saying it, however. He slid his fingers through Aria's soft hair.

Aria tilted his head back and closed his eyes at the sensation, relaxing himself, not wanting his nervousness to turn to fear.
He trusted Morgan.

He put an arm around his waist, trailing fingers up his spine.

He kissed Aria again, he could feel that he was nervous. Oddly, he was nervous too. Like a bridegroom on his wedding night. He finished taking off his shirt.

Aria slid his hands over Morgan's shoulders and down his torso. His fingers worked to unfasten his trousers as he slowly went to his knees, his actions an odd rerun of their very first encounter.

Morgan shivered at Aria's touch. He stood transfixed as Aria sank to his knees and started to unbutton his pants.

Aria slid the trousers down and kissed along the inside of his bare thigh. He mouthed Morgan's crotch through his underwear, his breath hot.

"Oh... Aria," he moaned at the touch of his breath. He slid his fingers into his lover's soft blond hair.

Aria stopped, feeling uneasy upon his knees on the floor like this. He stood, giving Morgan an apologetic look and hoping he'd understand.
"Might we...?"
He looked pointedly at the bed, biting his lip.

Aria's sudden reticence surprised him at first. He blinked as the younger man stood. "Oh. Of course..." he stripped off his trousers and climbed into the bed.

Aria straddled him, kissing down the length of his body.
"I'm sorry... it seems silly, but...."
He didn't know how to express the way he was feeling. There was something more civilised, more warm in making love on the bed in Aria's mind. Knelt on the hard floor felt dirty and degrading, he associated it subconsciously with the brothel.

Aria felt more relaxed now as he finally licked the length of Morgan's arousal, then took it into his mouth.

"It's not silly..." he gasped as Aria took him into his mouth. "Oh gods..." he dropped his head back onto the pillow and let Aria do with him as he would.
