Sometimes there's honor in distractions...

Elijah groaned at the roll of her hips against him, pressing up against her again. She was warm and wet against him and the only thing in the world he wanted was to bury himself inside of her. Her nails only heightened that, sending shivers over his skin.

Damon watched them both and shifted closer, kneeling next to them. His fingers lifted Rebekah's hair out of the way as he pressed a kiss to the shell of her ear, nibbling a bit before murmuring, "An excellent idea. Do we want to tease him a bit, or should you shift just a bit..." His fingers found the inside of her knee and trailed upward toward her core, the backs of his nails dragging along Elijah's side in turn. "And start this off with a bang?"

"Nor do I," Elijah admitted, letting his fingers ghost over Damon's arm, down to tease across Rebekah's stomach.

Damon's fingers mirrored his, little touches to Elijah, then along her ribs, tracing her curves, enjoying the nearness of them both, the easy feeling following release, not having to question anything.

"I'm glad I got the bigger bed, then." He brushed a kiss over her skin, tasting the remnants of salt and blood.

Rebekah shivered as their fingers danced across her skin, seeming to be everywhere at once so she couldn't tell whose touch it was sliding over her. She had missed the ease of being with someone, basking in the after glow of sex and now she was getting it two-fold.

"Mmm, I'm beginning to think everyone should have a very big bed like this." She nodded, her fingers sliding over Damon's as they brushed over her stomach. "I'll have to talk to the hotel about changing my bed."

Though she wasn't sure how her room mate would feel about her inviting two vampires in.

[manof-myword.livejournal.com]

Elijah laughed. "You just might," he agreed. "My bed, sadly, is out of the question, for the moment."

He didn't know how Ric would feel about him inviting Rebekah in, though he had made no promise not to like he had with Klaus. She was his baby sister. She could visit if she wanted--she hadn't hurt Ric or Jenna. Damon came and went pretty much as he pleased, already.

But he honestly didn't know how his roommate would react if the part of the room that Damon came and went from was his bedroom.

Damon seemed to have a similar thought and chuckled. "As potentially sitcom-style amusing as that could be...you're probably right."

"Well, then I suppose we'll have to keep using your bed." She smirked over at Damon.

Honestly, she really didn't care much hough she could imagine there were a few people who would have something to say about their particular arrangement but she would simply ignore them.

Damon grinned at her, flashed a smile over at Elijah.

"I'm not complaining about that proposition..."

Elijah smiled a little back, brushing another little kiss over her skin. For the first time since Lexi left, the smiles felt real. This didn't automatically make everything right, but there was a cathartic release in it that left him feeling sated and warm and connected in a way he really had needed more than he had words for.

"I should hope not." She smirked in response.

Then she leaned in to brush her mouth along Elijah's cheek, drifting to the spot behind his ear so she could give him a soft nuzzle.

"You should try getting some rest, Elijah." She pulled back enough to look at him again.

[manof-myword.livejournal.com]

Elijah cast her a little amused look, leaning into her touch and settling more against her, letting his eyes closed.

"Why am I the one who needs the rest?" He did. Desperately.

Damon did, too, really, but he was fighting it.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

"Because you're old." Rebekah replied cheekily, brushing her fingers through his hair soothingly.

[manof-myword.livejournal.com]

Elijah arched an eyebrow at her, before snorting in laughter. "Brat."

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Rebekah didn't find it nearly as insulting when he said it and so she laughed after pressing a kiss to his shoulder. "And you love me for it."

[manof-myword.livejournal.com]

"I do," he murmured, pressing a kiss to her temple. "Very much so."

Damon smiled a little, watching them, feeling a tiny pang.

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Rebekah seemed to sense the pang that Damon felt as she reached to slide her hand over his, her fingers linking with his own.

Damon smiled at her, lifting her hand to press a soft kiss to her skin. Pleased by the contact, he gave Elijah a little smile, as well.

"Sleep if you need to..."

[itconsumesher.livejournal.com]

Rebekah gave Damon's fingers a gentle squeeze even while nodding in agreement.

"We'll be here when you wake up."

[manof-myword.livejournal.com]

Sleep was something Elijah had done a lot of these past couple of months--it had been his only escape, and sometimes the dreams were good. Tonight, he didn't really feel the need for escape, but for the first time since Lexi left, he thought maybe he could sleep truly peacefully, curled up and tangled with people he cared about, who cared about him.

He gave them both a smile, holding Rebekah a little closer, sinking into the pillows with a sigh.

Damon shifted away just to grab the covers to pull up over them for the extra coziness. He leaned down to kiss Rebekah one more time, then slipped around them to catch Elijah between them, not wanting him to feel alone on either side. He settled again, resnagging Rebekah's hand over Elijah as he settled.

Turning her head slightly to look at Damon, she flashed him a smile, leaning up to return the kiss before she fell back to snuggle down beside Elijah. Tucking her arm under Elijah's, she linked her fingers around Damon's once more while nuzzling her brother softly again.

At the moment she felt rather content and safe, probably for the first time in a long time, and so she was sure she would sleep too. At least for awhile.

Damon watched them both as they snuggled down, and smiled a little at the sight they presented. Two of the most dangerous people in the village, the most deadly predators, and snuggled together like that, sated and sleepy...you'd never guess it.

He sighed a little, pleased at what he'd managed to accomplish for the night, but the beating followed by the healing and sex and everything else was taking a toll on him, too, and he finally let himself drift off a bit.
