Serendipity

Sequence V: Dynamic

It certainly had become a promise.

Both men had hardly managed to re-dress themselves before heading back up to the hotel suite. They almost forgot the food that they had originally gone to get for lunch.

Upon entering the suite, the sound of hairdryers could be heard in the room where both women were. It seemed as if they had finally gotten out of bed and were preparing for the day.

That didn't stop the masculine form of the equation from doing whatever the hell they wanted wherever they wanted.

The kitchen had at least been reached. Plates had been taken out in order to re-heat the food that they had ordered. At least half of their meal had been finished.

Hope sat at the bar, resting comfortably on the cushioned stool. He certainly needed it after the events that had just occurred. Walking had been a pain in the ass, and he refused to let the other man carry him like some damsel in distress.

The food was a good energy boost. Noel already concocted in his mind that they were both going to need that energy to continue in certain activities for the duration of their stay. Whether that was touristic activities or those for their eyes only, that would soon be revealed.

"It figures we would just settle on a pizza."

It hadn't been surprising that two men would end up ordering something so simple. The pepperoni had been a little spicy, but it was a nice touch. Hope started on his second piece just as he saw looked up to see the other man staring at him.

The gaze was always so intense. Even now, he couldn't help but to feel flustered and a little nervous. If anything, he should've felt comfortable given everything that had just happened less than an hour ago. But, he still felt like a boy with a crush-A very intense crush.

As Noel stood on the other side of the bar and still in the middle of the kitchen, he noticed the other man tilt his head to the side a bit.

"You've got something, right there." Hope tried to instruct him to where the slightest bit of sauce had ended up along the right side of Noel's lips and somewhere along his cheek.

"Where? Here?" His fingertips began to trace over said area, but he couldn't seem to be find it exactly.

Very slowly, Hope slid off the chair. A small moment of pain ran through him but he quickly walked it off by moving around the corner and into the kitchen. As he stood in front of Noel, he let his own hand move to rub off the spot from his cheek.

"There."

Hope was about to withdraw, but Noel caught that very hand that had just assisted him before he could. He tugged him back to rest against his chest, just as he stared down at him with a smile appearing on his features.

"Thanks."

Both men stayed in that position for a brief moment before the smaller of the two could sense how those sapphire eyes seemed to be closing in on him. Those lips leaned in, and Hope couldn't help but to let himself tilt up to fall into a chaste kiss.

That gentleness didn't last for very long though.

Noel pressed further into the joining of their lips, and Hope moved his free hand up to grip into the brown locks of the hunter. Their bodies began rubbing against one another again, and unknowingly began to back up against a nearby pillar.

Those gentle moans that Hope had made before began to start up again in the interlocking of their lips, and it only teased Noel into moving his hands southward, letting them grip at the other's hips which were now perfectly aligned for grinding against one another.

The sexual tension was building, and just as they were both getting far too caught up in the moment, that was when the reality hit and they realized they weren't alone.

A door opened nearby; luckily they were on the other side of the pillar so nothing was seen. It sounded like both girls were exiting the room, which gave the men a few moments to pull away and try to straighten themselves out.

They leaned forward against the counter; Hope had to stretch over the counter to reach the plate off the bar nearby. Those sapphire eyes had to resist staring at his perfectly shaped ass and instead focus on calming himself down.

There would be time for that later.

"Uggggh, I am so tired." Alyssa sighed as she entered the kitchen, moving to the fridge to grab a bottle of water. She handed a second bottle to Serah who had taken a seat at the bar.

"Me too. Remind me to never have that drink again. I'm sticking with something simple." The pink-haired woman clearly still had a slight headache as she took a few pills and drank some water.

"Pizza. Yum." The blonde eagerly grabbed a piece just as Serah waved away the idea.

"I think I'm going to skip eating just yet."

"Greasy food isn't necessarily good for you during a hangover anyway." Hope pointed out just as he picked off a single pepperoni and ate it.

"Did I do anything last night?" The young Farron looked over at the other three in the room. Her hands fiddled with her side-ponytail as she looked worried. "I can't really remember much of anything."

Noel looked over at Hope and then back to the woman at the bar. With a shrug, he replied in a simple manner before taking another bite of his pizza.

"Not that I can remember. I just know you can be quite the angry drunk."

A blush of embarrassment crossed her features just as Alyssa was trying not to laugh in response.

"Don't worry Serah; I'm sure we'll find some more hot guys tonight." Just as the blonde finished her slice, she took a sip of water before practically jumping in the air. "Oh speaking of which, tonight we're all dressing up. And by 'up', I mean we're going in our sexiest outfits. Which for you two, that would probably be suits."

Noel raised an eyebrow at the statement, looking back at the woman who was dictating their plans.

"Is that right? Since when do you tell us what to wear?"

"Since you two are going to be the company of two, gorgeous women of course. Well, at least till we reach the club again. Then we're probably just going to go our separate ways."

"Well what should we do until then? You two clearly aren't ready to go dance the night away just yet." Hope had finally calmed the problem that had formed from his close encounter with the other man. He turned and looked over at Alyssa and then to Serah.

"I'm thinking, miniature golf? Then the scenic ride over all of Serendipity?"

The miniature golf had been a good idea for both men, maybe not so much so for the women though. They weren't very skilled at the game, and Serah was getting annoyed every time the ball would miss the target. Alyssa was a bit nonchalant about the entire thing. She seemed more occupied with watching the two men play.

The game wasn't new to Hope, for he had been taken to play it a few times with both of his parents when he was younger. Feeling a bit miffed at how he kept barely missing the hole though, he took to the second to last marker on the field.

"You need to breathe in before you take the swing."

Noel came up from behind of him, letting his own arms run down those smaller ones just as his muscles could be felt flexing slightly from the movement. A blush was on Hope's cheeks but he hid it from view by staring over at the hole he was aiming for.

"Relax your body." The subtle tone of Noel's voice ran softly over the ear that was covered slightly by silver locks. "Breathe in..and swing."

The voiced instructions proved to be quite relaxing, mainly because it was coming from the man whom he was far too infatuated with. Breathing in slowly, he let his arms then moved to swing and hit the green ball down the ramp. As it landed perfectly in the hole a few seconds later, a low chuckle was heard along the side of his ear just before a lick was made at the lower part of his earlobe.

That blush remained even now, and Hope moved from the embrace as he attempted to regain his composure from the shiver that shot through his body before looking over at anyone in the group, even more so at Noel.

Alyssa rolled her eyes as she made her way over to Hope and latched onto his arm much like she had when they had all first met.

"Can we go to the ride now?"

"This was your idea." Noel had propped the club over his right shoulder as he watched the woman remain in that latched on position. Inwardly, he tried to brush it off as much as possible.

"It was fun for the first ten holes, and then it got repetitive." She rolled her blue eyes before moving off of Hope and running to grab Serah's hand. As the two women ran to return their clubs, the men were left to gradually follow after them.

They deposited their clubs back into the proper area before starting to head to the path that led up to the popular attraction. The line was short at this time, probably because people were more occupied gambling away their money and throwing around their money in the strip club.

The ride appeared to have 5 carriages that ran at a time. In sequential order, the description of the ride that was displayed on an overhead screen showed it would run through the entirety of Serendipity and it would last about 10 minutes.

"The ride only seats two. Who wants to ride with who?" Serah questioned the two men just as they approached them in the line.

"Oh well, I'm fine with riding with Hope." Noel answered rather quickly before Alyssa got a chance to intervene. She seemed to be falling into that intent mannerism of keeping the researcher close to her.

"Serah and I will just have more time to scan the area for guys." Alyssa gave a curt smile before turning to the receptionist at the front of the line. She directed them to the first open carriage just before she stopped the other two in line.

"The next carriage will be available in just a moment."

Both women waved at them just as their carriage took off into the night sky. Less than a minute later, a red carriage pulled up, the door swinging open automatically to allow the next two occupants inside.

"Enjoy the scenery of Serendipity."

The carriage only held one bench, forcing both of them to sit directly next to one another. As the door closed after they were safely seated, it lurched forward slowly and moved along the line to lift into the sky.

"I think she wants your attention again."

Golden lights sunk through the windows as they passed over the central area. As they both glanced around, the top and bottom of the carriage had a window placed in both areas, showing every angle possible.

"You know she's just annoying." Hope replied in reference to his assistant that had started being clingy again, h then glanced between the window to his right, then the one below him, and then finally over at the other man.

"I don't care what she is; I don't like her near you."

Noel couldn't hold his dislike back as he noticed those hazel eyes shine with a hint of amusement.

"Oh really? Well how do you think I felt when I saw Serah all over your lap last night?"

"That wasn't something she would've normally done."

"Yeah but she still did. And whenever people are drunk, they do the things they secretly wish they could when they were sober."

"We did things when we were sober Hope. So I think that holds more credibility than a drunken mishap." Noel leaned in to a close proximity than they already were. His hands moved to grab at those delicate hips again just as he saw Hope lean back against the side of the carriage.

"It seems like you can't stop doing those things now either." Inwardly, Hope was thoroughly enjoying the massive amount of attention he kept receiving from the other man. He'd never admit to liking such a thing though. It was part of their dynamic, teasing one another until it reached a heightened intensity that begged for release.

"Is that a problem?" Those instincts began to kick up just as red lights filled the vicinity for a few moments. The carriage was passing over the casino area just as they were zoomed out into a darker area for a few minutes.

"Even if it was, I don't think you'd give me a choice in the matter." Hope ran his hands onto that chest that was so close to him now. His fingertips could trace over the heartbeat that was like a steady rhythm which he loved feeling.

"I always knew you were smart." The reply was sarcastic yet holding a tone of truth just as Noel moved his head in to initiate a slow kiss.

How had they already gotten to this point? Less than 24 hours before they had been awkward as hell around one another and now here they were making-out above the grounds where sin and greed enacted themselves every day. The entire thing was almost like a surreal movie, but it was reality.

All because of that one, rainy day. A hidden desire led to hidden feelings that had yet to be discovered. They were rapidly growing though since that occurrence a week before, and now the two were finally being able to dive head-first into all of those feelings.

The growing frustration, all the uncertainty, it had built up to the point where the emotions had boiled over and still had yet to be satiated. Every time the hunter let himself dominate the man in just a touch or kiss, he knew that he was never going to be fully satisfied. It was almost like an obsession.

"I'm still…in recovery-mode..." Hope had barely managed to breathe out the sentence in between the gripping and hot kisses.

"I know, but you're such a fucking tease." The obscenity slipped out of his mouth, but it still sounded so alluring as it did. Noel broke away from the kiss, fearing he wouldn't be able to stop himself from ravaging the other man if he didn't stop soon.

"And you're not?" The older of the two was still leaned against the side of the carriage as he kept his focus on the man sitting nearby.

Noel rubbed the back of his head while trying not to look too much at the man still leaned up against the wall in such a sensual manner. What was with him and having this man against the wall?

"If that makes you want me to want you, then sure."

It was only because Hope had adapted to understanding such odd sentences that he was able to catch the meaning behind those words the first go-around. Another flash of golden lights filled the carriage as they passed over what appeared to be the last segment of the ride.

The movement of the vehicle began to slow down as they approached the exiting area. When it came to a complete stop, the side door swung open, allowing the occupants to leave.

"That would've been so romantic to go on a guy with." Alyssa was practically swooning as Serah couldn't help but to smile in agreement.

Noel had brushed past the other male in the group, whispering softly to him as he did so.

"It sure was."
