and they lived.... (closed; james)
Grimhilde Manor is in the middle of freaking nowhere.
Luckily, in the place of the carriage that brought James and Davin to the ball is now James' BMW. Davin doesn't give it much thought, and just helps James into the passenger seat. He's hurt pretty bad but not in any way that Davin can't fix. He cups his cheek, the one that isn't scraped up and raw, and leans in to press a trembling kiss to his forehead. "I'll get us outta here, okay? It's gonna be okay."
He shuts the door and goes over to the driver's seat. Davin's entire body aches, and his head is throbbing, but he'll be fine. It's all going to be fine. At least, he hopes it will.
The keys are sitting in the ignition and Davin starts up the car, spitting gravel as he flips it around and heads away from the manor. James has his head back against the seat, eyes closed, and Davin keeps glancing at him worriedly as he drives. He doesn't really know how James is going to react to what he just saw. It was a huge burst of magic, in which Davin killed something, but Davin's hand was forced. He didn't want to do it; he had to if he wanted to save them. His hands are still shaking, and his heart is pounding away in his chest. Maybe he'd go into shock, if he wasn't so wholly focused on getting them somewhere safe.
Davin's shop is on the way to James' house, so he pulls into the parking lot and looks over at James' quizzical expression. Davin swallows hard and unbuckles his seat belt, tossing the door open. "I just need t'grab somethin'. I'll be right back."
There's a small wooden box in a locked drawer in Davin's office that holds a few vials of his healing potion, just in case, and he rushes in to grab it. He runs back out to the car and sets it on the console before pointing the car towards James' house. Once they're at the cottage he puts the car in park, grabbing the box before going around to open James' door. He hooks James' good arm over his shoulders and helps him up, leading him up to the front door and unlocking it. Davin helps him over to the sofa and sits him down, taking a few steps back and biting his lip.
"I - " Davin swallows hard, eyes shining, and he has no idea what to say. He's just so fucking scared and upset, and he wraps his arms around himself as he looks helplessly at James.

no subject
He isn't sure if he was the one to bring Davin back, but maybe he was. Maybe it proves how much they care about each other. All of this has made him realize that in many ways.
no subject
Davin relaxes against James when he's kissed, eyes sliding shut as he wraps an arm around his neck. They swap short, sweet kisses for awhile, and Davin is grinning when he finally pulls away. "I'm me now, an' I'm all yours."
He slides off of James' lap and stands up, taking his hand and tugging him to his feet to lead him towards the stairs. "We're goin' t'your room and lockin' the door. I could sleep for like a week an' we have lost time t'make up for."
Of course, Davin knows that in reality, they won't be able to just stay in bed. They'll have to eat, and James will have to go into work. Davin will have to check on the shop. They'll both get busy, and things will go back to normal. But for now, just for tonight, he just wants to be with James.
They get into James' room and Davin shuts the door before pressing himself against James again, looking up at him and placing his hand on the side of his neck. "I thought I was gonna lose ya there for a second. I'm just - I'm really glad you're okay. I'm kinda fond of ya, y'know."
no subject
"I happen to like you as well," he says with a laugh. He more than likes Davin. It's become rather obvious that his feelings for Davin are very intense and serious. "Well. I'm not gonna lie. I thought I was a goner for a second there too." But they both know Davin managed to protect them both from the dragon. Thank goodness.
no subject
"This suit may be a goner, though." Davin smiles and starts to take James' suit jacket off of him, and his expression grows more troubled. There's blood on the fabric and it's scuffed and torn from where he was thrown to the ground, and Davin's fingers tremble a little as he gets it off and tosses it aside. He works open the buttons on James' shirt while watching his face, and then gently pushes it off of his shoulders. Davin isn't aiming for anything in particular. He just wants them to be comfortable and preferably touching and that will just be easier without torn, blood-stained clothing.
"Couldn't undress Prince James like this," Davin teases, laughing and giving James another soft kiss as he unbuckles his belt and pulls it slowly out of the loops. All he wants to do is take care of James and make him happy, keep him safe. If he's ever in danger again, it'll be too soon.
Davin removes his own torn button down and then toes out of his shoes, bending over to get his socks off and flop onto James' big, plush bed in his slacks. He manages to roll over and prop himself up on his elbows, giving James a tired but happy smile. "Get over here, your majesty."
no subject
He kicks away his own shoes and socks, and then he follows Davin over to the bed and sits on the edge looking over beside him. "I should've known that name was going to stick," he says, as he lays down beside Davin with his head on the pillow.
no subject
He lifts his head to rest his chin on James' chest, smiling fondly up at him and watching his face. James saw what Davin was really capable of with his magic tonight, and he didn't freak out. He didn't push Davin away. That feels like a huge weight from his shoulders and he arches up to give him another long, lingering kiss.

James kisses him back enthusiastically and it's hard not to get lost in it. A pleasant shudder runs through Davin and he licks into James' mouth with a soft, happy noise. Kissing James is truly one of Davin's favorite things. It's like the whole world narrows down to this, to them, and Davin can just give himself to it and be safe. Not to mention how fun it is.
He stretches out on top of James and relaxes, sliding his hand down James' arm to find his hand and tangle their fingers together, squeezing tight as he pulls back enough to breathe and kisses James' jaw instead. "I still dreamed of doin' this with ya, even in the spell. I never stopped wantin' you."
no subject
"You weren't the only one." Even thought Davin didn't have his memories, for James it was difficult to separate his emotions from the person in front of him, who looked and talked like Davin, who still stirred such deep emotions inside of him. He wanted to hold and kiss him, but he couldn't when he didn't know who he really was. But now, making up for lost time definitely seems like the right idea.
He uses his other hand to slide his hands into Davin's hair as he kisses against his neck and jaw. They don't have to be in a hurry. Except it's been a long time. He feels his cock hardening between his legs, and all that would make him happy is for Davin to be closer now.
no subject
After everything they've been through, they're still here. They still have each other, and Davin just wants. His own cock stirs in his slacks as he slides his hand down James' chest and stomach, curving around his hip before reaching down to cup his dick through his underwear. Davin kisses him again, and this one is deep and lingering. His eyes fall shut as he works James through the thin fabric, and then he pulls away, breathing hard as he gets up on his hands and knees to pull James' underwear down over his hips.
"You're so damn gorgeous," he says quietly, slipping out of his own underwear and rocking forward to lay on top of James again, lining their hips up and going in for another kiss.
no subject
Lifting his hips from the mattress to help Davin remove his underwear, James can feel his breath increase at the movement, and he reaches out when Davin stands up, clutching his hip, pulling him closer once his clothes are removed too. His hips settle over his, and it's a ridiculously good feeling that makes him ache for even more.
He moves his hands back to Davin's waist guiding their cocks together, and as perfect as that feels he wants to be inside of him too. "That feels good," he tells him.
no subject
He relaxes when James is on top of him, blanketing him, because Davin always feels safe like this. With James' weight on top of him, pressing him down into the bed, and with all of James' attention, Davin feels so incredibly lucky.
Davin spreads his legs so James can fall between them, and he slides one hand down the middle of his back while his other hand goes up to touch the soft hair at the back of his neck. He looks up at James, eyes bright as he smiles softly, mouth falling open on a quiet moan. "Tell me what you want?"
no subject
"I want you," he answers without a second thought. He has missed having Davin this way. And now that he has him he wants all of him. He wants to feel him, to be inside him.
no subject
Davin gasps again and tips his head back, arching up and reaching blindly for the nightstand, but he doesn't quite reach. "James, please. Wanna be closer, need ya inside me."
no subject
Davin responds to his touch, gasping and arching his body, and something about it just makes James' skin tingle, knowing that he can make someone feel so good. He likes that he never has to worry about being something more or something greater. They can joke all they want about princes and fairytales, but he doesn't think Davin means it. He likes James just for being himself.
He sees Davin reach for the drawer and miss, so he quickly lifts up on his knees and opens it, gathering lube and a condom. There's no begging needed, he wants this just as much, and he rips open the foil and rolls the condom of his cock, his entire body feeling tight with need. Dripping the cool gel over his fingers he slips one finger inside of Davin, wanting to be inside him in the worst way. "Okay. Just tell me when," he says in a breath pressing his finger deeper, not wanting to rush, but hoping when is very soon.
no subject
It's all moving so fast, but that's what Davin wants. There's this sense of urgency, the need to be as close to James as possible, so he doesn't even mind that they're going from zero to sixty. He lets out a soft moan when James' finger slides inside of him, and he takes a deep breath to try and relax. It's been a little while, thanks to the spell, but Davin doesn't want to wait.
He looks up at James' face while he fingers him open, clutching at his shoulders with his legs spread wide. James hits that spot inside of Davin that makes him jerk up and gasp, and he's grinning as he nods.
"Yeah, I'm ready," Davin pants out, rocking his hips up and pulling James closer. "C'mon."
no subject
Tight heat surrounds him, and Davin feels impossibly good even before James begins to move. He puts his hands along Davin's hips, digging his fingers in as their bodies move together. "God," he breathes out. This is what he wants, has wanted for days when Davin had forgotten him.
no subject
"Fuck, ya feel so good." James is holding him to the bed and Davin hopes the way his fingers dig into his hips leave bruises behind, marks that he can look at and remember how this feels. His legs go around James' waist and he rocks up to meet his thrusts, hooking one arm around James' shoulders to pull him close enough to kiss.
no subject
Everything is going fast, and he can feel his body tight and pressure-filled, but he uses his hand to stroke Davin's cock as he moves inside of him, still wanting him to feel good.
no subject
"James, fuck. James." He comes with James' name on his lips, arching up with a cry as he shoots across James' fingers. He's panting, trembling all over, but he does his best to keep meeting James' thrusts, clenching down around his cock and cupping his cheek. "C'mon, babe. I wanna feel it."
no subject
Soon he feels empty, soft waves of pleasure still rolling through him as he loosens his hard grip against Davin's hip. He smiles a little, his chest still heaving as he tries to catch his breath. "You're incredible."
no subject
"I'd say we make one hell of a team," he replies fondly, finding James' hand and threading their fingers together. He watches him for a long moment and then looks at the mess they made of the bed before laughing again. "Mm, I think we should go take a bath in that big fancy tub o' yours. Take advantage of havin' indoor plumbing back."
no subject
"I'm not gonna say no to that,' he says taking a second before turning so he can let his legs off the side of the bed. "Come on. We'll shower. And have something to eat." He's gotten a little of his energy back, and he realizes it's been awhile since he's had food. Normal food too.
