Double Take (4 page)

"I'm always worried I don't spend enough time on schoolwork." Teka sighed. "I suppose I'm paranoid about losing my scholarship."

"Are you planning to become a graduate student?" asked Hasani, sitting down on his bed and gesturing to Teka, who sat next to him. Hasani leaned forward and lit a lantern with a flick of magic, sending a comforting glow through the room.

"Yes, I want my full degree, so I can perform gender reassignment magic back in D'mt."

"No chance of you staying in Kemet then?" asked Hasani.

"Not after I have my degree," said Teka. "But that's years away."

"True." Hasani laughed at himself. "I'm sorry if I seem forward. I hope you know that I'm very interested in you, not just for your body."

"Of course!" said Teka, shocked that Hasani would even think that. "I'm interested in you too, Hasani. I like you a lot."

Hasani bit his lip. He looked beautiful in the lamplight, although a little insecure.

"What's wrong?" asked Teka.

"Oh." Hasani shifted so that his face was more in shadow. "I'm just afraid, I suppose. I've had so many doomed relationships. My last one was—" he took a deep, shaky breath, "—heartbreaking. I thought I'd never recover, or find someone else. But then I met you."

"And instead of talking to me, you asked Maek about me," said Teka with a laugh.

"Oh, she told you." Hasani screwed his eyes shut in embarrassment. "I'm sorry, I was just so intimidated! And of course she only made it worse."

"I'm glad you got over it eventually," Teka teased.

"I'm still not over it," Hasani replied. "Not completely. This feels like a dream."

"It's real." Teka slid a hand over the white linen of the bed to intertwine with Hasani's. "You're not the only one who's intimidated, you know," xe said, staring into Hasani's eyes. It was so easy to look at him. Teka didn't feel shy or rude at all. "I didn't think anyone would like me here. Poor southern scholarship student. I'm surprised you took any interest at all."

"Modesty doesn't suit you," said Hasani with a small smile. "I think you know exactly how amazing you are."

"Well..." Teka smiled, warmth blossoming in xyr chest again. "I am a genius."

"That's more like it," said Hasani, and he leaned forward to capture Teka's lips between his. Teka gave in to the kiss readily, xyr body reacting to Hasani's touch. Hasani's hands roamed over xyr body easily, and Teka liked the way he didn't hold back. Xe wanted Hasani to touch xem. Wanted it so very badly.

Teka reached forward to tug at Hasani's collar, already loose, unwinding the fabric there as quickly as possible and pulling the robe apart. He wasn't wearing anything underneath, and Teka was treated to the sight of his bare chest, smooth and dark and lightly muscled. Xe ran xyr hand down his body, parting his robe as xe did so, and leaned forward to kiss his neck and shoulders.

"Mm." Teka gasped as Hasani's fingers found their way down the front of xyr robe. He pulled the fabric apart and ran his hand down the front of the shirt Teka was wearing underneath. His fingers found the curve of Teka's breast and moved across it, flicking over xyr nipple. A shiver of lust shot through Teka as he did so, and xe could feel warm liquid pooling between xyr legs. "Oh, mm, Hasani... do that again."

Hasani complied, flicking and twisting Teka's nipple until xe was writhing in Hasani's arms. Hasani kissed down xyr shoulder and onto xyr breast, pulling xyr robe the rest of the way open and the shirt underneath over xyr head. Teka's hands went to xyr breasts instinctively as the warm night air hit them, and xyr fingers brushed across xyr already sensitive nipple. Hasani leaned forward and Teka let him slide his hands up over xyr body, and lean forward to catch the other nipple in his mouth. He nipped it with his teeth and then sucked, and Teka felt xyr head fall back as xe moaned, the pleasure and intensity rippling through xem. Xe could feel xyr cock hardening and pulsing, liquid dripping between xyr legs.

"Hasani, I want you..."

Hasani's mouth left xyr nipple and he lifted his head up to look at Teka. "What do you want?"

"I..." Teka gestured to xyr waistband, pulling xyr robe off completely and untying the silk belt of xyr trousers. Hasani followed suit. Teka watched as he stripped, pulling the soft silk of his trousers and undergarments down. His cock bobbed up, long and hard as he crawled back onto the bed. Teka was hard xemself, xe could feel xyr cock against xyr stomach and xe reached down to confirm that xe was nearly soaked.

Hasani leaned forward again to kiss xem with a laugh. "Your hair is blue everywhere," he murmured, grinning and Teka grinned back.

"Of course, I don't do things halfway."

"I can—" Hasani's hand paused as it made its way over xyr cock and lower. "I can see that," he said, swallowing and looking down. "Teka, you have..."

"I do," said Teka, suddenly a little nervous. Hasani had had a male lover in the past. He'd almost definitely never been with someone like Teka before. He seemed to like xyr breasts, but... "Is it alright?"

"I hardly know where to start," said Hasani, his fingers circling Teka's cock again and tugging, before trailing down to slide into xem.

"Wherever you like," whispered Teka, throwing xyr head back and sucking in a breath as Hasani's fingers entered xem, running over xyr sweet spots, and causing xem to ache for more. "I like that..."

Hasani's fingers left Teka and continued to rub over xyr cock as he moved up over xem, leaning to kiss xem deeply. "May I fuck you?" he asked, his cock hard and insistent against Teka's. Xe could feel his hips moving, feel the desire in his tongue as it danced heavy over xyr lips and slid insistently in.

Teka moaned as his tongue pulsed into xyr mouth, wetness dripping between xyr legs as he continued to tug and pleasure xyr cock. "Please, please do."

Hasani pulled back ever so slightly, flicking his thumb over the head of Teka's cock as he regarded xem. "You have a spell on, right?" He asked. "It won't..."

"No, no." Teka shook xyr head. "It doesn't matter, I'm infertile."

"Oh." Hasani's body was still, not in a tense way, but only waiting, tentative. "I'm sorry, I should have known."

"It's alright." Teka didn't want to lose the moment. Xe ran xyr hands down Hasani's back, and arched xemself into him. "Please, Hasani. I want you inside me."

Hasani's body seemed to come back to life, his cock surging hard against xem once again at the words. He grasped Teka's hip with his free hand and slid down, pushing his cock against the sensitive folds. Teka's head tilted back, but Hasani leaned forward to kiss xem again, sliding slowly into xem as his tongue did the same to xyr mouth.

Teka moaned as Hasani filled xem, the sensation of being stretched and filled by Hasani's warm, hot length nearly overwhelming. "Oh, yes," xe whispered. "Please, fuck me."

"Gladly," whispered Hasani with a devilish grin, and then he thrust into xem. Slowly at first, and then building up speed, the pleasure and heat washing through Teka in pulsing waves.

Teka gripped Hasani's shoulders and pulled him closer, desperate to feel him, to have as much of the pleasure as possible. Xe could feel xyr mouth open, moaning "yes" over and over again. Xe fell back onto the bed and Hasani leaned over xem, thrusting deeply between xyr spread legs until xe couldn't feel or think of anything besides the pleasure. A few more thrusts and Teka was lost, xyr body twitching and jerking with pleasure. Finally the spasms stopped, and the haze cleared from xyr eyes.

"Did you come, Hasani?" Teka whispered, blinking as Hasani leaned forward to kiss xem once again. From the hardness of Hasani's cock inside xyr, it was evident that he hadn't. "You can keep going."

"I don't want to hurt you," Hasani whispered, but his body was tense, and Teka knew he was desperately holding back from pounding into xem again.

"You won't," said Teka, sliding a hand down his back. Xyr fingers brushed Hasani's ass, and he gasped. Teka felt his cock jump inside of xem. "Here?"

"Ha." Hasani gave a begrudging smile. "If you like."

"Hmm..." Teka lifted a finger to xyr mouth to wet it and then returned it to Hasani's ass, brushing against his hole. "Keep fucking me," xe ordered, and Hasani complied. His cock felt almost too big for xem after Teka had tightened around him, but it also felt deliciously good, and the moans Teka's fingers were eliciting from him were even better. "Next time I'll fuck you," Teka whispered in his ear between his moans, slipping xyr finger deep into him to find his prostrate and thrusting along with his hips. "You would like that?"

"Y-yes..." shuddered Hasani, and then his words were lost to quick desperate gasps as he thrust shallowly and quickly into Teka, faster and faster until at last he let out a sharp groan and Teka felt his cock let loose into xem, jerking a little as warm liquid spilled into xem.

"Oh." Teka let xemself fall back, splayed on Hasani's bed, and Hasani collapsed on top of xem. "That was amazing."

"You are amazing." Hasani grinned and kissed Teka again, slowly and languorously. Teka almost drifted off as they kissed, lost in a daze.

"Mm, I should go back to my room eventually," xe said after Hasani's weight had become a little uncomfortable. "Is your roommate coming back any time soon?"

Hasani laughed. "No, I think he's off moping somewhere."

"Why's he so upset? Is he jealous?"

"Yeah." Hasani laughed. "Something like that, I guess. Thinks I should be focusing on my schoolwork, not bringing lovers over."

"Lovers..." Teka repeated the word happily, tracing the muscle on Hasani's arm. "I like that."

Hasani kissed xem, sliding his tongue gently into xyr mouth, and laughing when Teka squirmed a little under his weight. "Don't go just yet, alright? I want to spend more time with you."

"You can spend as much time with me as you like," Teka promised him. "Buy me lunch sometime."

"I will." Hasani leaned into xem. "I'm sorry I'm always so busy in the day. My classes take up so much time."

"It's lucky I don't sleep much then," said Teka with a laugh, and Hasani kissed xem again, and kept kissing xem until at last xe got up in a haze of tiredness and stumbled back to xyr room.

*~*~*

Teka was lucky to get to sleep in the next morning, having finished xyr homework the night before, and, after relaying the events of the night previous to a giggling Maek, rushed happily to their lab with her. Hasani was there, looking a little tired himself, but professional as usual, and he spared a small smile for Teka when no one was looking.

After the lab was over, Teka urged Maek to leave without xem. Then xe waited until all the other students were gone, and Hasani was cleaning up a mess left on one of the desks, to sidle up to him and press xyr body to his side.

Hasani turned, a surprised look on his face, and Teka planted a kiss on his mouth before he could protest. Hasani froze for a moment, then sunk into the kiss willingly, a smile playing on his lips as Teka nipped and sucked on them. "What's gotten into you?" he asked with a glorious smile when they broke apart.

"I just like you," said Teka, leaning in to kiss him again, and Hasani pulled xyr close, until their bodies were grinding together under their student robes.

"Shouldn't do this here," Hasani murmured after a moment, and broke away from Teka with difficulty. "We'll get in trouble."

"You're right," sighed Teka, pouting. "What about tonight then?"

"Tonight?"

"Are you busy tonight?"

"No," said Hasani after a moment. "No, probably not. My room is apparently off limits, though." He grimaced.

"Ah, I see. Roommate waging war?"

"Yes, something like that." Hasani shrugged.

"Well, we can go to my room. Maek won't mind, she owes me. Why don't we meet in the library, by the fountain?"

"Alright," Hasani agreed. "What time?"

"I do have schoolwork," admitted Teka. "What about midnight?"

Hasani nodded, and then that mischievous grin crossed his features, and he pulled Teka in for a quick but heated kiss. He tasted different than last time, like liquorice and mint. Teka liked it, and xe managed to draw the kiss out longer than Hasani had intended, until he shoved xem away with a smile, and Teka rushed out of the lab, feeling light-headed.

*~*~*

Hasani was in the courtyard a few minutes before midnight, leaning up against the fountain and playing his ney. He looked the same as he had the first time Teka had found him there, beautiful in the blue moonlight, his eyes dark and warm. He slipped the ney from his lips as Teka approached him, and pulled xem into a passionate kiss. His lips tasted like wood again, and his hands were strong and passionate on xyr hips.

"You're early," Teka laughed when they came up for air, and Hasani looked at xem a little confused.

"What do you mean? I'm always here at this time."

"Never mind," laughed Teka, ignoring xyr confusion in favour of another kiss. Hasani set his ney down on the fountain and lifted his hands to Teka's face, pulling xyr chin up and kissing xem hard and desperate, as if he couldn't get enough of xem. Teka wondered if they'd even manage to make it all the way back to xyr room.

Suddenly an angry shout ran across the courtyard and sharp footsteps drew near. Teka flinched as xe felt Hasani ripped away from xem and thrown to the ground. There was a muffled smack as the new man's fist collided with Hasani's face, and Teka shouted and lunged towards them. But the newcomer was backing away, as if waiting for Hasani to get up. Teka glanced at him, then at Hasani, and then back, xyr brain refusing to process what xe was seeing. The new man was... Hasani?

But Hasani was on the ground, his hand held up to his cheek where the punch had landed, shouting, "What the fuck are you doing?"

"What the fuck are you doing?" his assailant shouted back, lunging towards the Hasani on the ground. He stopped just before he made contact, though, as if afraid to hit him again.

Teka's mind fought to make sense of it. Two... two Hasanis. How could there be two? But Hasani was his family name. Teka had never gotten his given name. "Oh no..." xe whispered, and both men turned to look at xem at the same time.
