offered food, smiling around it.
    Jack leaned in and bit off a piece while kissing Lucas on the lips.
    He heard Lucas moan while they both swallowed the shared food. Jack let his finger run through what was left of the soy sauce and felt Lucas’s muscles react to his touch. When he looked up he simply said, “There.” Lucas looked down and saw the word ‘MINE’ written on his stomach. He pulled Jack into another kiss, making the American lie next to him and then rolling both of them over until he was on top of him. “Not yet. I’m not yours until I’ve felt you inside of me.”
    “Do you want that? Do you want me inside of you?” Jack whispered.
    “God, yes! If you want that, too, I mean, I don’t want you to do anything you don’t want!”
    Jack silenced the young man with a passionate kiss, trying to convey that he wanted it too.

    Lucas spread his legs so he was straddling Jack and moved back and forth like he had done just a few hours ago, the first time he had made Jack come.
    Jack felt himself slowly grow hard again; knowing this time the fairly quick succession of their lovemaking would let him last a lot longer.
    It didn’t diminish the passion he felt for Lucas, though, the feeling that he wanted to crawl underneath his lover’s skin and melt into him. He fumbled to untie the towel around Lucas’s waist and felt a pang of disappointment when the young man got up and moved to his suitcase on the other side of the room.
    Jack scooted up until he was half sitting, but his face had obviously been easy to read, because Lucas smiled and explained, “We need a few supplies.”
    The young Brit returned with a handful of condoms and a small bottle of lube. He crawled back to his earlier position and took Jack’s face in his hands. “Don’t worry, I’ll guide you through it,” he murmured before kissing him again.
    Jack let his hands wander over Lucas’s back and cupped his ass, pulling him in closer.
    “Do you want to prepare me?” Lucas asked wantonly, his eyes dark.
    Jack nodded. “If you show me how.”
    “It’s been a while, so I’ll need some time,” Lucas moaned against Jack’s mouth. He moved a little higher, offering his neck for Jack to kiss as he grabbed the lube. “It’s a muscle so you’ll need to gradually tease it while I try to relax. Plenty of lube and one finger at a time.” He grabbed Jack’s hand, “Come here,” and squirted a generous dollop of gel on his fingers.
    Lucas moved a little higher up Jack’s body and wrapped his arms around his lover’s neck. They were deliciously close together, Lucas’s weeping cock between their bellies, when Jack moved his hand around Lucas, trying not to get the lube all over. Considering he had never done this before, his aim was pretty good, but Lucas disentangled one of his arms to guide him, “There.” He had his hand over Jack’s and let his head fall back when Jack breached the entrance with the tip of his finger.

    Lucas moaned, his mouth open and his head back. “A little more…”
    Jack could feel the ring of muscle pushing tightly around his finger, but slowly felt it loosen as he carefully let his slick finger glide in and out.
    Lucas’s movements created some much needed friction for both of them, and Jack sensed his lover becoming more impatient.
    “Add another finger, Jack,” Lucas whispered in his ear.
    Jack realized he loved looking at Lucas’s face when he was like this, shutting out the world, totally oblivious to anything else but his own body and that of his lover. As he inserted another finger, he felt the ring of tightness again, but this time it yielded even more quickly than the first time. Lucas was breathing heavily now, telling Jack to go deeper.
    “One more finger. Oh God, I can’t wait much longer, Jack. I want you deep inside me. Fuck, Jack!”
    With three fingers inside Lucas, Jack could feel him opening up to him. He was still going to be tight, but Jack was starting to become impatient too, his breathing speeding up in anticipation of feeling Lucas’s heat around him.
    Jack was surprised when Lucas moved away from him. The young man looked at Jack with dark, lustful eyes as he grabbed a condom.
    Reacting to the confusion in Jack’s eyes, the Brit leaned in to kiss him.
    “I’m ready for you and I can’t wait any longer,” he explained. He ripped the foil packet open with his teeth and expertly rolled the condom on Jack’s
