Let me find you in the Light

I don't know where this came from or quite how to describe it, other than a picture of Jared is the inspiration. It's not going anywhere and doesn't mean anything. Late nights occasionally do this to me. I guess you'd call it an experiment, a short trip up the Nile when the world was a younger place. Sometimes sensuality is its own reward.



Let me find you in the Light

One curl falls along the flare of a perfect cheekbone. Your eyes, speckled with a thousand shades of gray and green and brown, look back at me from the pillowed bed. I see the tender swell of lips part on a prayer that’s never uttered. My name hovers behind the pearls of your teeth, lays flat on your tongue. Jensen. I hear it hanging heavy in the air between us.

Fold me in your mouth, I breathe into the porches of your ear. Let me fill all your empty spaces in liquid salt, my Jared.

You turn and spread yourself, an ancient surrender. The loose undulation of a shadow slinks across your collarbone and settles in the hollow there. My tongue longs to lick its secret sweetness from your skin.

Light filters through the wind-sharp air and comes to earth in a benediction, folding itself into the cleft of stone, the curve of sand hills outside our window. Blue haze rests at the base of the lowest dunes and around the slim line of your hips. I part my fingers across your throat, the flesh smooth and unlined. Drink the taste of ripeness, sweet as figs, from the cup of your mouth with eager sips.

The Egyptian sun lifts and day blooms around us, a day meant for marching across the desert, outlines of our shapes following beside us as we tread the undulating sand. I on my horse, you in your battered boots, your lips parched, dreaming of an oasis and a cool glimpse of dazzling blue among the wavering palms.

We move together in an age old dance. Below, the streets fill with a rising clamor, the city waking. I touch my fingertips to the line of your thigh, the lean angle of your hips. The muscles of your belly ripple as I dabble at the wellspring of your need. Your head, thrust back amongst the cushions, rolls from side to side. You bite your lips to blood red. A curtain of darkness falls across your eyes, hiding you from me. I slip closer, my manhood eager for you.

Captain, you whisper as I enter, your hands spreading you open, showing me the way through the ring of dusky muscle into blinding light. I shift onto my knees, hold you in the cage of my thighs. Find your deepest, most hidden place and beat off my passion within its heated grip. Beads of sweat fall from my forehead, run down the lines of my chest where your palms restlessly stroke me to torment.

My insides liquify, and the balls between my legs fill my shaft with spend. I am the throb of my release inside your muscled channel. The day, the hour focused to a point of velvet and fire and a pressure that robs my vision from me. I am the gush of you spilling in my guiding hand.

In passions aftermath, your lithe body folds itself around me, the length aromatic of the ocean’s fecundity. I wrap my fingers in your sweat damp hair and lick the fever from your mouth.

Goddamn Napoleon, you whisper in the shell my ear.

I roll lazily so I can see your face again, the melted heat within your eyes caressing my skin.

Every cat has its day. And so shall he, I answer. It is his purpose here, and we must follow where he leads us. But we will still manage to carve a slice of sweetness for ourselves, my Jared, in between the pages of history. Now I must put on my officer's britches, and you your cap and boots. Go forth to conquer Egypt vastness and wrest away her treasures with fire and sword. Can you doubt it?

The fierceness of your kiss is my reply, and master surrenders to the blandishments of slave. You feed me slices of dripping orange, tossing the peeled skin onto the floor, and suck the juices from the smiling curve of my lips.

I don't think I can comment sensibly on this. You've pretty much wasted me for the rest of the day... Sometimes when I read your stuf it just casts echoes of other writing through my brain like deju vu... And I don't mean like plagiarism, I mean the style, the quality. Instantly I got Hamlet "the porches of your ears" and the tone of the rest of the piece just reminded me of The Song of Solomon - a poem of pure sensuality to a lover. I love Egypt, and just the mention of the light there had me back, standing on the Cairo sands, looking at the Sphinx, her wasted face the result of target practice by Naploleon's soldiers. History, passion,uniforms... There isn't a kink of mine you didn't hit there, babe. *Stares at picture of Jared* I hope you get inspired more often! ;-)

I love our Willie and sometimes I like to give a tip of the hat to his wonderful language. "Porches..." is one of my favorites, so don't be surprised to see me using it in other fics as well. It's such an amazing image!

You've been to Egypt? I am so incredibly jealous. Since I was a little kid, I've been fascinated by the history and the stark beauty of it. Those enigmatic statues with their never-changing faces. Then there's always Ozymandis.

I'm so thrilled I could hit a few of your kinks. I once wrote...well, got about halfway through an Egyptian fic, but then my inspiration took a walk and it was never finished. Maybe someday I'll try to adapt it to SPN.

Hamlet has some of the best lines ever written in the English language, so quote away!

And yeah, I've been to Egypt. While back now. Mostly Cairo and its environs. It's an amazing place. It's truly a culture shock - the poverty is immense, and yet the people are so hospitable. It's a country of contrasts - driving along the banks of the Nile, watching children living in mud huts coming out to draw their water from the river; dining in the opulence of The Mena House, staying in the Cairo suburb of Maadi, full of rich professionals and bordered by an ancient cemetary of above-ground tombs, now inhabited by the living - clothes lines of colourful cottons hung between crypts was startling. It was a life lesson. And so was sailing the Nile in a felluca, and riding an Arabian horse over the sands in the shadow of the pyramids. And Ozymandius, King of Kings... Almost pretty enough to be Jensen, lol. Oh yeah, and those pyramid things... ;-)

Oh God. You absolutely entrance me with your descriptions. It sounds like all my daydreams rolled into one. Fellucas on the Nile, riding a horse across the sand in the shadow of the pyramids. "...clothes lines of colourful cottons hung between crypts..." That part just knocks me out. Was Rudolph Valentino lurking in the shadows in his turban and billowing pants, bare chest heaving with passion?

*sigh* You should write something with that as a background. Not Valentino, but Egypt. It would be awesome.

Mr Smith

My favourite part? There was this HUGE advert on the main road into Cairo, we'd pass it every day, looming over the cars, a semi-naked man advertising the after-shave "Concrete, for Men!"

I'd love to write something Egyptian... My best mate is an archaelogist (Medieval) but she's studied Egyptian history and we both love it. My favourite place we went was Saqqara... The Step-Pyramids of Saqqara. Tell me that doesn't sound like a 50's adventure novel, lol!

Concrete Men! It sounds like the title of a porn movie. :D

Lord! The Step-Pyramids of Saqqara is a great title. You really have to write it. Your best mate sounds like someone I would love. Medieval England and Ancient Egypt are the stuff of my dreams. What a great collaborator she'd be for you. Jensen as Howard Carter discovering Tut with his brash young assistant, Jared. Or, you know, something similar.

Damn. I used to have a bunch of Egyptian icons, but they're gone in favor of the boys. This will have to do.

Awwww. Thanks okay, sweetheart. I'm as "slow as the molasses in January" so it will take me a bit to get another chapter up. I know it will be super whenever its done.

And your birthday is a time for celebration. *throws leftover confetti*

You bite your lips to blood red. It reads like poetry, like it should be whispered and revered. Beautiful.

I don't think I have anything coherent to say about this.

Oh, God!

*throws back head and howls*

So pretty that I think you killed me dead.

That was really lovely, my friend. You have such a natural rhythm and grace with prose that I envy. Really lush and lazy and warm, just like the desert. It's a perfect pairing of setting and action that works seamlessly to paint a lush portrait.

Very, very well done.

I really appreciate your kind words. This isn't everybodies cup of tea, and I know it. But sometimes I write things only I like and am afraid to post them (Jensen enthralled by his lover). This time it felt like I had to and I'm glad I did.

Thank you!

I wish I spoke English fluently to be able to appreciate the rhythm and poetry of your language even better. As it is, I just have to say that your story is beautiful.

Your written English is excellent. I could never do half so well in another language. I take this as a huge compliment. Thank you, dear.

I know you say this was inspired by a picture of Jared... but that background picture of Jensen just keeps robbing me of my senses!

Very nicely written!

I can't deny there was a bit of Jensen in there too. It's together they stop my heart. Thank you for your comment. When it comes to this fic, feedback is very special to me.

Stunning.

That is the only word I can think of to describe this.

I read it twice. The first time wasn't enough.

Thank you doesn't seem enough to say. I find myself lost in your icon. He's such a gorgeous man. No wonder Jensen can't get enough of him.

I'm definitely coming round to that way of thinking, i'm a Jensen girl at heart but it just seemed fitting to use my Pretty Jared icon! So to balance out the gorgeousness here's a pretty Jensen icon;o)

I love them both equally. This season has been murder on a DeanSam girl. But the JensenJared girl is all happy.

*rummages for purty Jensen*
