The first time Howard Moon told Vince Noir that he loved him, he was laughed at. Not maliciously, but it still stung him and wounded his pride. He hadn't wanted to die without saying something sweet and meaningful, and Vince had laughed at the sentiment.

The second time Howard told Vince he loved him, he was elated, ecstatic, euphoric. He was certain that Vince loved him, why would he have kissed him like that if he didn't? So tenderly... but Vince had pushed him back again, said that he was wrong; gone wrong.

Howard Moon was nothing if not persistent....

He was beautiful; glimmering and shining in the dark nightclub. A butterfly among the tawdry moths, blindly drawn in by the light. Except that he was still a butterfly. Howard sighed, no wonder his career as a poet, never mind a cream poet, hadn't taken off if he mixed his metaphors like this.

Vince, with his layers of glitter and pretty clothes: armour protecting him from the grubby, ordinary world, tried so desperately to be special. He needed have bothered, he was a still vision in wrinkly boxers and sleep rumpled hair the next morning. All that glittered wasn't gold.



Title: First Time
Pairing: Howard/Vince
Summary: Howard gets some "practice"

Vince's mouth had barely reached Howard's cock before the other man was coming all over his face. Howard was panting heavily and blushing. Vince's pointed tongue snaked out and licked his lips clean.

“Mmm,” he said and climbed up Howard's body, kissing as he went. Hip, belly button, pectoral, his soft mouth caressed each one and he sucked gently at the skin. “That's pretty flattering, Howard,” he chuckled lightly against Howard's chest.

“I'm sorry,” Howard muttered quietly under his breath, “I- I'm not used to-”

“Shh,” Vince kissed his lips chastely, “Practice makes perfect.”

They just kept getting better!

The first one was oddly adorable; sweet but sad.

Loved :)

Thank you!

I originally tried to do the first one as a double drabble, with Howard finally getting it right a third time, but I thought it was better to leave it to the imagination.

[izzytheskittle.livejournal.com]

Oh I agree. Imagination is a very handy thing. But if you ever DID feel like writing it....

[infra-dig.livejournal.com]

Premature ejaculation has never been more endearing.

[beansidhe-baby.livejournal.com]

I love how this comment sounds out of context :)

Thank you!

[imhit.livejournal.com]

These are lovely!

[beansidhe-baby.livejournal.com]

Thanks honey!

[stevrick.livejournal.com]

These are quite nice, I'm gonna go ahead and admit I'm a perv and say that I like the third one the best.

[beansidhe-baby.livejournal.com]

You slag! Lol thank you :)

[el-gardner.livejournal.com]

Aw, these were lovely <3

The first one was kind of sad, in a fluffy kind of a way, if that makes sense...

And aw, bless Howard in the second one, that was really sweet; how he still loved Vince, without all the glitz and glamour.

Have to say though, the third one was my favourite! Something tells me they're both gonna enjoy that practice! ;D

[beansidhe-baby.livejournal.com]

Thank you <3

I wanted to leave the impression that he'd get it right eventually in the first one, I'm not sure how well I managed that.

He is a sweetie, isn't he?

Howard being the perfectionist that the is, I'm sure he'll have it in no time (but that's no reason for them to stop practicing of course :P )

[colour-me-troll.livejournal.com]

Its wrong, but I have an actual thing for premature ejaculation in fics.

These were lovely, all three. The last was, clearly, my favourite.

[beansidhe-baby.livejournal.com]

I do too

Thank you my love :)

[angstmobile.livejournal.com]

I also especially liked the last one, maybe because although I've read a fair few fics which relate to Howard's 'first time', this probably comes closest to how I imagine it would go ^-^. Yes, I'm terrible.

[beansidhe-baby.livejournal.com]

It probably is realistic that he wouldn't last long the first time. You're not terrible, you're lovely! Thanks for reading and commenting.

[crowson75.livejournal.com]

I liked all of these. The last was my favourite.. of course ;) I like fics where sex goes wrong. It's more realistic too for a first time. Real = yum. :D

[beansidhe-baby.livejournal.com]

It does seem to be the favourite alright ;) Bad sex is sort of weirdly cute. Especially when the parties concerned are up (oh Matron!) for trying again.

[gloryiscalling.livejournal.com]

I agree with infra_dig. The third one was really sweet. :]
I like the first one too!
...and the second. <3

the warning on the last one made me giggle
