[ACE] make you understand.

Ace looked around, pulling his helmet slowly off his head. "Gods, Derek.. Its beautiful." He breathed, climbing off the bike. He set his helmet on the ground, wrapping his arms around Derek's neck, kissing him softly. "Thank you." He smiled.

Derek hugged him close, gently meeting the kiss. "You're welcome kiddo," He murmured affectionately, taking Ace's hand and pulling their lunch out. He walked with Ace towards the edge of the water and sat down. "I figured a lunch date couldn't hurt," He teased.

Ace watched him pull their lunch out, slowly slipping his fingers through the man's. He he smiled as he sat down next to him, putting his drink between his legs to twist the cap off. "This means we get to go swimming after we eat? Or do we have to wait half an hour?" He asked, waiting to be handed his food.

[derek chandler ralston]

Derek shrugged, chuckling. "I never really followed that rule," He taunted, opening the container and separating half the fajitas into the lid, sliding it towards Ace. He kept close, reaching for one of his own and biting into it.

'Yeah, but itd be really embarrassing- Poseidon's son drowning from a stomach cramp." Ace teased. He'd never had one, so he doubted anything would happen. He looked up at Derek, watching him bite into his food. He looked down, picking one of his up. He took a bite, looking out over the waters.

[derek chandler ralston]

Derek laughed. "That would be a sight," He agreed, then smiled crookedly, teeth flashing. "I would save you first, and then laugh though. Don't worry." He reached to ruffle Ace's hair, then absently took his hsnd.

Ace smiled over at him, finishing the rest of his roll. He squeezed Derek's hand. "All done!" He exclaimed, never having been able to eat much to begin with. He pulled himself to his feet, tugging Derek up with him. "I want a small bike. Like a dirt bike." He said, bouncing over to Derek's. "Yours is too big for me to hold up. I can sit on it though." He pulled himself up on the bike.

[derek chandler ralston]

Derek grunted in mock complaint, but allowed Ace to pull him to his feet. He smiled at the bout, listening to what he had to say andnodding before following him towards the bike. He stepped up behind him to hold it up while Ace climbed on, and kissed the back of his head tenderly. "Mm, we'll have to go pricing then and see what we can find, hm?"

[aerin 'ace' colt endsley]

Ace shook his head, leaning back against him. "That's okay. I like riding with you better." He smiled, tilting his head back to look at Derek. He'd never thought he'd find anyone who liked him for him, someone he didn't have to worry about hurting him. And so far, Derek had proved to be nothing but sweet.

[derek chandler ralston]

Derek chuckled. "Yeah?" His hands slid around to Ace's stomach as the boy leaned back. He gazed out across the water, kissing over the back of Ace's neck absently. "The water's beautiful."

[aerin 'ace' colt endsley]

Ace whimpered as Derek got closer to his shoulders, his hands sliding down his arms to slip his fingers between Derek's. He tilted his head to the side, that same lust there was the first time they'd fooled around. He knew Derek wasn't going to use him. "It really is.." He said quietly, his bright blue eyes scanning the scenery.

[derek chandler ralston]

Derek smiled, burying his face in the crook of the boy's neck gently. He kissed tenderly at the freshly revealed skin, playing with Ace's fingers. He had had no intentions of them fooling around out here, had been taking things slow and friendly so Ace wouldn't get frightened, would understand he'd never try and hurt him.

[aerin 'ace' colt endsley]

Ace bit his lip, closing his eyes as he squeezed one of Derek's hands. He liked it just being the two of them, not having to look after Celeste and make sure she didn't do something goofy. He dropped one of his hands to Derek's knee, then slowly started to run his fingers over the inside of his thigh.

[derek chandler ralston]

Derek groaned, chuckling faintly. "That..is a bad idea," He complained, eyes closing. It had been awhile since he'd even had sex, and Ace's touch wasn't helping at all. He rubbed the boy's stomach gently, kissing his shoulder.

[aerin 'ace' colt endsley]

"I don't care.." Ace breathed. He climbed off the bike so he could turn around and climb back on facing Derek. He pulled Derek's face down to his, kissing him softly. He'd never been forward, but this was suddenly different. He moved closer, draping his legs over Derek's.
