When Qui-Gon awoke, he was unsure how much time had passed since he and Obi-Wan had fallen asleep. For a few moments, he lay there watching Obi-Wan as he was lost in dreams. He could sense the pleasant thoughts that Obi-Wan was feeling, and smiled softly.

A wicked grin on his face, an idea formed in Qui-Gon's mind. Careful to not project his thoughts to Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon shifted on the bed next to his Padawan. Qui-Gon bit his lip, still smiling, as he tugged the twisted sheet from Obi-Wan's slender body. In response, Obi-Wan stirred slightly, but remained asleep.

Qui-Gon got up on his hands and knees and leaned over Obi-Wan. His long hair brushed over Obi-Wan's chest bringing a smile to the sleeping Padawan's lips. Qui-Gon smiled in return as he leaned down and brushed his lip across Obi-Wan's bare chest, but it was not yet enough to bring his student from sleep.

Qui-Gon continued to lay soft kisses down the length of Obi-Wan's stomach. As he did so, Qui-Gon looked up the length of Obi-Wan's body, watching the subtle changes on Obi-Wan's sleeping features.

Pausing to dip his tongue into Obi-Wan's navel, Qui-Gon recalled his Padawan's eager response the night before. Sensing that his pupil was about to wake up, Qui-Gon reached out with the Force and calmed him so that he would remain at peace. Obi-Wan sighed heavily and moved slightly as he fell deeper into slumber.

Qui-Gon's calloused hands moved slowly down Obi-Wan's sides causing him to shiver and smile. Qui-Gon laughed softly and moved down to kiss Obi-Wan's muscled thighs. Slowly, he worked his way down to the Apprentice's toes. Taking the big toe into his mouth, Qui-Gon rolled his tongue around it's base. He bit the toe softly with his teeth as he pulled back, and then took the toe again into his mouth.

"Master?" Obi-Wan questioned after breaking through the barrier of sleep.

"Good morning, Obi-Wan," Qui-Gon replied pulling away from the toe.

"You don't have to stop," the young man protested.

Instead of answering him, Qui-Gon moved up the bed to take Obi-Wan's lower lip into his mouth. Obi-Wan took this opportunity to take his Master's upper lip between his teeth. Obi-Wan twisted his fingers through Qui-Gon's long hair. For a moment, he could not keep the image of Qui-Gon's hair burning out of his mind.

When Obi-Wan laughed into the kiss, Qui-Gon pulled back and commented, "Do tell me what's so funny this time." He didn't quite manage to keep the humor from his voice as he added, "Or is your mouth ticklish?"

Fingering the singed hair, Obi-Wan replied, "I just remembered that you are due a hair cut sooner rather than later."

Qui-Gon closed his eyes for a moment. "I had managed to forget about that," he said, pulling Obi-Wan's hands from his hair and securing them above his head on the bed. "Now, if you will cooperate, we might get somewhere."

"Yes, Master," Obi-Wan said with a wry grin, closing his eyes.

Qui-Gon again lowered his mouth to Obi-Wan's, his tongue reaching outward to duel with Obi-Wan's. Breaking from the forceful kiss, Qui-Gon traced a path down the chiseled line of Obi-Wan's chin and planted a line of kisses down the young man's throat.

Obi-Wan sighed as Qui-Gon busied himself with nipping the skin where throat met shoulder. After several moments, Qui-Gon turned his attention to the hollow at the base of Obi-Wan's throat only to quickly move down Obi-Wan's chest.

Releasing his hold on Obi-Wan's arms, Qui-Gon covered each inch of his student's chest with soft kisses. Saving the sensitized nipples for last, he heard Obi-Wan gasp when he sucked the neglected flesh into his mouth. After worrying the left nipple with his teeth and tongue, he moved to the other. Above his head, Obi-Wan's hands clutched the sheets convulsively.

"Why are you always such a tease, Master?" Obi-Wan asked, desperation entering his voice.

Qui-Gon said nothing, but continued to kiss the ripples of Obi-Wan's abdomen. He again dipped his tongue into Obi-Wan's navel, taking pleasure in his student's moans and shivers.

"Master, please," Obi-Wan demanded, raising his head from the pillow to look at his Master.

"If you don't stop making demands, then I will have to start all over again with your ears," Qui-Gon informed him.

Obi-Wan threw his head back against the pillow. Not long after this, Qui-Gon nipped the underside of his shaft and proceeded to lick the area with his warm, moist tongue.

Obi-Wan's back arched at the sensation. Qui-Gon's left hand quickly pinned him to the bed and slowly drifted up Obi-Wan's chest to tease his nipples. Obi-Wan quickly grabbed Qui-Gon's hand into his own and dragged it up to his mouth.

Before Qui-Gon could pull his hand away, the young man had inserted the long, middle finger into his mouth. Qui-Gon quickly discovered that he did not want to rip his hand away from the depths of the Padawan's throat. A tremor went through Qui-Gon's body.

Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz . . .

The alarm clock caused both of them to jump, even though Qui-Gon had been expecting it.

"I suppose," he said, as he pulled away from Obi-Wan's neglected erection, "that this will have to wait until later."

As Qui-Gon walked to the small wardrobe in the corner with a smile spread across his face, Obi-Wan looked after him with shock and disbelief etched into his features.

"Master," he said, scrambling to get out of bed, "you must be joking."

In his rush to get to Qui-Gon, the sheets tangled around his slim body, causing him to trip and fall to the floor. Qui-Gon turned to face him with an amused expression on his face.

"Well, my young Padawan, if you truly like being on the floor so much, then I suppose that next time we will have to try it there."

A confused look spread across Obi-Wan's face; it was quickly replaced by a grin as he recalled a similar fall the previous night.

"I'm sure you'll have fun explaining the ripped tunic sleeve to the Council," he said with a laugh. "It's the only clean one you had left."

Qui-Gon's hands fell from the door handle. "Not a problem," he said. "I'll just wear one of the others on top."

Obi-Wan chuckled, then looked about the room. Half burnt candles were everywhere; their wax coating tables and shelves. Qui-Gon walked to retrieve his clothing that lay in piles around the room. He stopped by the table and attempted to pick up the candle that had hit Obi-Wan in the face. It barely moved.

"The droids aren't going to be too happy about this," his Master said.

The Jedi retrieved his clothing and started getting dressed when he realized that Obi-Wan had not moved.

"Don't you think that you should be getting dressed, Obi-Wan?"

"I can't go like this. I can barely walk with the bruise I got last night. And don't get me started on what you did to me this morning. If I go into the Council chamber like this, Master Yoda will start to lecture me about carnality and lust," Obi-Wan explained.

"A Jedi must not be fearful, Obi-Wan. Besides, you cannot send me in alone like this," he said as he pointed to the black circle around his eye.

Obi-Wan slowly pulled himself up from the floor and began gathering his own clothing.

When they were both dressed -- and as presentable as could be expected -- they started to walk out of the room.

"What about your cloak, Master?" Obi-Wan asked.

"I suppose that today I will have to go without it. It would not be the first time that I have broken the Code."

"You can wear mine," Obi-Wan offered.

"I appreciate your thoughtfulness, Padawan, but your cloak would be about six inches too short on me," he said, ruffling his Apprentice's spiky hair.

Obi-Wan chose not to reply, but made a mental note to get back at Qui-Gon later. Instead, he put on his brown cloak, and fastened it in front. He was thankful that it was so big, perhaps he could hide in its folds. Obi-Wan knew the walk to the Council chamber would be a long and difficult one.

Standing by the door, Qui-Gon turned to look back at Obi-Wan. "Are you quite ready?" he asked with a faint grin.

Taking a step, Obi-Wan sought to focus the Force on his pain, accepting it as a path to healing. "Quite," he replied, crossing the room.

"Then, let's go see what the Council has in store for us today," Qui-Gon said, walking out into the corridor.

Obi-Wan followed his Master out of their chambers. He was careful to walk as normally as possible.

Difficulties, my Padawan? Qui-Gon asked with a hint of humor in his tone.

Obi-Wan straightened his posture as best he could. Why ever would I have difficulties? he replied a moment later.

Able to read his student's scarcely veiled arousal, Qui-Gon smiled. No reason. However, Master Yoda might not agree.

Inwardly, Obi-Wan groaned. It was going to be a long day indeed.

Within moments, they were before the Council.

"Master Qui-Gon," Mace Windu said with a brief nod. The slightest reaction showed on the Master's face as he took in Qui-Gon's blackened eye.

Both Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan bowed out of respect to the Council members. "We trust you are well," Master Windu added.

Qui-Gon nodded, well aware of how brightly the bruise showed on his face. "We were informed that you wished to see us," he said, glancing back toward Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan, meanwhile, was doing his best to maintain his shields so that his predicament was not broadcast to each of the Council members.

Yoda nodded, and replied. "Yes, see you we must. Mission have we for you."

"The Supreme Chancellor has requested we send someone to help negotiate a dispute on Sugrai Eight," Master Windu explained, sparing a long glance at Obi-Wan.

Obi-Wan shifted uncomfortably under the Jedi Master's piercing gaze. "Much distress I sense in you, young Kenobi," Yoda said knowingly.

Obi-Wan opened his mouth to reply, but Qui-Gon instead interrupted him. "Obi-Wan had a . . . rather eventful morning."

"So he must have," Mace Windu replied, causing Obi-Wan's ears to color slightly. Turning his gaze to Qui-Gon, he continued, "You as well seem to bear some rather curious markings."

"Nothing that will not heal in time," Qui-Gon replied, an easy smile in place on his face. "What more can you tell us about this mission?" he asked, hoping to distract attention from both his and Obi-Wan's injuries.

Sensing Qui-Gon's diversion, Yoda nodded. "Unrest developing. Much chaos on Sugrai. Their ambassadors Jedi help requested."

Qui-Gon nodded. "We will leave at once."

Both Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon bowed, turning to leave when Yoda spoke. "One last thing, discuss we must." Both Jedi turned, awaiting Yoda's final instructions. "Before leave you, physical examination necessary, will it be."

Shock registered on Qui-Gon's face, while Obi-Wan's ear's shifted a darker red. "Will that be necessary?" Qui-Gon asked as Obi-Wan groaned inwardly at his Master's questioning the Council.

"Yes it is," Mace Windu said. "The Sugrai system is known for its questionable environment. You must be cleared by a medic droid before leaving. A transport for Sugrai leaves this evening, you will be expected in the medical ward prior to that."

Qui-Gon could feel his Padawan's tension, but replied, "We will do as we're asked, then."

Obi-Wan hid his surprise that his Master gave in so easily, but was relieved to be excused from the Council.

As quickly as was prudent, and his injured tail bone would allow, Obi-Wan left the Council chambers, followed by Qui-Gon. Once they were in the corridor, and the door closed behind them, Obi-Wan commented, "The medical droids will question the injuries, Master."

"Yes, they very well could," Qui-Gon replied.

Obi-Wan shook his head. "And how will you explain your eye?"

Qui-Gon paused in the corridor, and turned to Obi-Wan, "A training exercise gone awry, my Padawan."

"Training exercise, Master?" Obi-Wan asked, humor in his eyes.

Qui-Gon nodded, and began walking. "I would say that you learned something, didn't you Obi-Wan? Nothing is unworthy of doing, as long as something was learned."

Obi-Wan shook his head, stifling a laugh. "Last night's lesson was to avoid candles," he commented, touching his hand to his cheek.

"And boots," Qui-Gon added, sparing a glance at Obi-Wan.

They were nearing their quarters when Obi-Wan observed, "Although I can think of a few uses for the candles."

Obi-Wan walked into the chambers, leaving Qui-Gon standing out in the hallway staring after Obi-Wan. "You will share that with me, Obi-Wan," he said, following the laughing Padawan into the rooms.

Glancing at Qui-Gon over his shoulder, Obi-Wan replied, "You'll find out soon enough, Master. I promise."

The door slid shut behind Qui-Gon as he commented, "Secrets aren't a virtue, Obi-Wan."




Obi-Wan waited for the medic droid uncomfortably on the examination table. He was anxious to get the physical over with. Through a sheet of transparisteel, he could see Qui-Gon sitting on a table identical to his own.

Anxious, Master? Obi-Wan asked, unable to mask his humor.

Qui-Gon glanced at his Padawan, responding Less so than you are, Obi-Wan.

"Jedi Kenobi," a medical droid interrupted, hovering into the room. "I am T6-23. If you would just lie back on the table," the droid explained in its mechanical voice.

Sparing one last glace at his Master, Obi-Wan laid back uncomfortably on the table. The droid ran a scanner down the length of him, and paused saying, "Would you please turn over." Stifling a groan, Obi-Wan did as was requested, while the droid examined his bruised tail bone.

Qui-Gon, meanwhile, was still waiting for a medical droid to arrive, and was in turn trying to watch Obi-Wan's exam. Although he could no longer see his Padawan, he could still sense him through the Force. Tense, Obi-Wan?

Obi-Wan winced when the droid probed the tender area. Sarcasm is not a virtue, Master, he replied.

Touche, Padawan, Qui-Gon responded a moment before a medical droid similar to the one examining Obi-Wan entered the small room.

"Good afternoon, Master Qui-Gon," the droid said, pushing the door closed behind it. "I am T7-14. If you would just lie back on the table."

Even before activating the scanner, the droid said, "You seem to have been injured recently." Turning to pick up a smaller scanner, the droid leaned over Qui-Gon. "What was the nature of the injury?"

As Qui-Gon replied, his tone was as even as he could manage. Obi-Wan sensed his Master's barely concealed embarrassment and grinned. Is anything wrong, Master?

"Please explain the nature of the training accident," the droid pressed, dividing Qui-Gon's attention between it and Obi-Wan.

"I was kicked," he explained cryptically to the droid. Silently, he added, I assure you, Obi-Wan, nothing is wrong that can't be fixed.

I do so look forward to that training exercise, Obi-Wan replied, smiling at Qui-Gon's surprised reaction.

"I have applied a neuropatch to your injured muscles," T6-23 interrupted their mental conversation. "Please turn over and I will commence with the rest of the exam."

Glad to be free of the throbbing pain from his lower back, Obi-Wan turned over on the table. The droid again returned its attention to the scanner. "Have you suffered a burn recently?" the droid inquired, focusing the scanner on Obi-Wan's face.

Taking a deep breath, he replied, "It was nothing serious."

"You should be more careful around wax, Jedi Kenobi."

Obi-Wan's eyes shot open, and he stared at the droid. "How did you know?"

Qui-Gon was forced to stifle a laugh when the droid examining Obi-Wan replied, "It would appear that you have candle wax stuck on the inside of your ear."

Obi-Wan started to raise a hand to his ear, but his arm was pushed down by T6-23. "I will take care of this," the droid said, picking up a slender pair of forceps.

In the next room, T7-14 asked, "I am curious what is causing laughter, Master Qui-Gon." The Jedi, who was fighting an unusual fit of laughter at Obi-Wan's predicament.

"Nothing, T7-14," Qui-Gon said, forcing a straight face. "Please, continue with the examination."

You do seem to keep the droids on the alert, Obi-Wan Qui-Gon projected at his pupil.

Obi-Wan, wincing as the droid finished removing the hardened wax, responded, A reflection of your tutelage, I'm sure.

They were again interrupted when the droid examining Obi-Wan said, "You seem to have an elevated testosterone level."

As Obi-Wan closed his eyes, his cheeks flushing red, Qui-Gon lost what little control he had on his laughter, confusing his medical droid even more.




By the time the examination was over, Obi-Wan was more than happy to leave the medical facilities behind him. He was adjusting his cloak when Qui-Gon appeared in the doorway that led from the exam rooms.

"Are we ready to leave, Master?" Obi-Wan asked, his tone serious.

Qui-Gon began walking down the corridor, Obi-Wan falling into step beside him. "The transport leaves soon, but I must first check with Master Yoda for final instructions."

Obi-Wan nodded, "Should I accompany you to meet with Master Yoda?"

"No," Qui-Gon replied, shaking his head. "Go ahead to the transport. It is the Isarn, it is one of the Republic ships."

"Yes, Master," Obi-Wan said with a nod. His leave taken, he turned and disappeared down a corridor that led past their quarters to the loading area.

Qui-Gon smiled faintly as he watched Obi-Wan hurry off. Turning, he walked down the corridors to Yoda's private meeting chambers. Once there, he pressed the buzzer beside the door and waited.

"Enter," the elder Jedi said.

Qui-Gon walked through the now open door, and moved to stand before Yoda. He bowed before saying, "You asked to speak with me?"

Yoda nodded. "Yes, Qui-Gon. Speak with you, I must."

"Is it about our mission?" Qui-Gon asked.

"Your mission a challenge will it be," Yoda replied. "But persevere you will." Yoda paused, looking up at Qui-Gon, and reaching out with the Force. "Kicked while training were you?" he asked, breaking the silence.

Qui-Gon opened his mouth, replying, "An accident I assure you."

"No doubt have I in that," Yoda said, settling onto a chair. Again reaching out with the Force, Yoda closed his eyes for a moment. "A haircut do you need. And a new cloak, suspect I."

"Master?" Qui-Gon asked, his tone betraying his shock.

Yoda smiled mysteriously. "More careful should you be, Qui-Gon."

Qui-Gon bit off a laugh. "There is wisdom in that."

"Meditate you both should," Yoda said. "Lessons your Padawan needs to learn. Control is but one."

Qui-Gon nodded. "Obi-Wan is a fast learner."

"So seems this true. Still, wary you should be Qui-Gon. Some paths traveled slowly must they be." Yoda paused in his lecture, his faint smile returning. "Or kicked in the eye again will you be."

Qui-Gon smiled slightly. "Yes, Master Yoda."

"Go now, waiting Obi-Wan is," Yoda said, dismissing him. "One thing more," he said just as Qui-Gon was approaching the door. When Qui-Gon turned, Yoda added, "Wary of candles should you be."




The room that was to be shared while on the transport left much to be desired. There were a few large pillows on the floor, but little else.

"I wonder what we did to deserve this?" Qui-Gon stated as he set their solitary bag down in a corner.

"Well, Master. You were saying you wanted to try it on the floor," Obi-Wan replied with a large smile.

Qui-Gon smiled. "Ah, it was you who seemed so determined to be on the floor, my Padawan." He finished looking around the room before saying, "Besides you must have patience, young Padawan. There will be time enough for that later. Master Yoda suggested meditation for us both." Qui-Gon slipped off his boots and Obi-Wan followed his example. "To calm us I believe was his intent."

Obi-Wan's face reddened a little as Qui-Gon sat on one of the large pillows. Obi-Wan moved to their pack. He opened it and pulled out a metal tin. "I don't know about you, Master, but my meditation exercises always seem to work better in candle light," he said, placing the tin down next to Qui-Gon.

"I'm not entirely convinced after last night, Padawan," Qui-Gon replied with a soft chuckle.

Obi-Wan said nothing in his defense. Instead, he lit the candle and relaxed facing Qui-Gon. The young Jedi worked to block everything from his mind including his companion.

By the time he had done this, Qui-Gon was already in a deep trance. Obi-Wan opened his eyes and leaned forward, allowing his lips to mingle with Qui-Gon's.

The elder Jedi's eyes popped open in surprise, but before he could pull away, Obi-Wan's hands held Qui-Gon's face as he moved to a more tantalizing kiss.

I don't think that this is what Master Yoda had in mind . . . Qui-Gon started.

Master Yoda was suggesting that we should calm our lust. I am just trying a different approach.

Qui-Gon was now returning his Apprentice's kisses with passion. Both of them were meanwhile fumbling with tunic ties.

Obi-Wan's was the first to go, revealing his smooth chest. Qui-Gon ran his hands down it's length. Taking pleasure in his student's shivers as his calloused fingers ran over the nipples.

Obi-Wan's tunic was soon joined by Qui-Gon's on the floor. Obi-Wan's hands drifted along Qui-Gon's chest to his back and then down his spine. A small moan escaped Qui-Gon's throat as Obi-Wan's practiced fingers tickled him directly under his waist band.

For a moment, they just clutched each other. Mouth flowing from Obi-Wan's mouth to ear to neck, Qui-Gon leaned against Obi-Wan, pushing him to the floor. Once there, they pushed their hips together, friction causing great arousal in both.

Fortunately, the strings of Obi-Wan's pants were now more cooperative. Qui-Gon finished unlacing the ties and pushed the pants down over Obi-Wan's hips.

Obi-Wan slid his hands inside Qui-Gon's pants. Sliding his hands over his Master's hips, his hands traced a path to clutch his firm buttocks. Qui-Gon groaned into Obi-Wan's mouth, deepening the kiss. Obi-Wan sucked Qui-Gon's lower lip into his mouth, mimicking the motions of his hands below.

In response, Qui-Gon reached between their bodies to grasp Obi-Wan's straining erection. He smiled as Obi-Wan arched into their embrace.

Tearing his mouth away from Obi-Wan's, Qui-Gon ran his tongue along the edge of Obi-Wan's chin. Reaching his ear, he snaked his tongue inside. Rewarded by Obi-Wan's quick intake of breath, Qui-Gon sucked the lobe into his mouth.

Nibbling on the yielding flesh, Qui-Gon whispered, his breath hot on Obi-Wan's ear. "Is this what you had in mind, Padawan?"

Qui-Gon's hand stopped its attention to Obi-Wan's shaft as it traced a path across the student's abdomen. Qui-Gon smiled when he brushed up against a ticklish spot.

Obi-Wan moved his hands to lace them in Qui-Gon's hair. Forcing Qui-Gon's lips back to his own, Obi-Wan groaned into the kiss.

"Something like this," he managed between kissed, before his tongue delved into Qui-Gon's eager mouth.

Qui-Gon ran his hands up Obi-Wan's sides and along his arms. Pulling the Padawan's hands from his hair, he placed them out at his sides. "You have yet to master control, Obi-Wan," Qui-Gon said after breaking the kiss.

Obi-Wan looked at Qui-Gon, disbelief in his eyes. "What do you call this morning, Master?"

Qui-Gon moved down Obi-Wan's body, placing kisses along his collarbone. "A lesson in patience," he said just before sucking a nipple into his mouth and worrying it with his teeth.

Obi-Wan gasped as Qui-Gon pulled back and blew a soft breath across the moist skin. The sensation was a pleasure akin to pain as the skin contracted even more tightly.

Tracing a moist trail across Obi-Wan's chest to the other nipple, Qui-Gon could feel Obi-Wan's racing heart beating just below the surface. Qui-Gon couldn't help but smile at the young man's reaction to his touch.

Slowly, Qui-Gon worked his way down to Obi-Wan's hips. The young man took in a sharp breath when Qui-Gon nibbled all the flesh around his burning cock.

There was a great sigh of relief when Qui-Gon's cool tongue ran its length. As the Jedi Master took Obi-Wan into his mouth the Padawan began thrusting forward. After sometime, Obi-Wan felt the relief that he had been craving all day.

Laying on his back on the floor, Obi-Wan did not forget his Master's need to be sated. Instead, he waited until he felt he could move without falling over in exhaustion.

When he was finally able to turn over, he found Qui-Gon watching him. Although a look of content was spread across his Master's features, Obi-Wan was not going to pass such a perfect opportunity up.

Rising, not bothering to cover his nude form, he moved to the same pack from which he had pulled the candles.

"Here," he said as he approached Qui-Gon, "put this on."

"A blindfold?" Qui-Gon asked in disbelief.

Obi-Wan only nodded, and Qui-Gon obediently took the offered cloth and tied the blindfold around his eyes. Obi-Wan gently eased his Master's head back onto one of the pillows.

Obi-Wan placed tiny kisses around Qui-Gon's mouth. Qui-Gon moved his head to try and find his lover's lips. Obi-Wan quickly dodged his Master's attempts and moved down his chest.

"Now it is your turn for a lesson in patience," Obi-Wan said, pressing a kiss on Qui-Gon's navel. When Qui-Gon groaned, Obi-Wan dipped his tongue into his navel, before returning his attention to the flat plane of Qui-Gon's abdomen.

Obi-Wan slowly kissed a path from Qui-Gon's stomach to his thigh. Obi-Wan smiled when Qui-Gon gasped as he nipped the sensitive flesh on the inside of his thighs.

Raising his head, he lowered his mouth to his Master's weeping erection. Taking just the head into his mouth, Obi-Wan lapped his tongue against the tip. Releasing Qui-Gon's shaft from his mouth, he breathed across the moistened tip. Obi-Wan smiled as Qui-Gon shuddered in response.

Obi-Wan bit his lips to stifle a laugh as he pulled away, Qui-Gon's protesting groan echoing in his ears. "Patience, Master," Obi-Wan said, dropping a kiss onto Qui-Gon's thigh.

Obi-Wan moved his body to his Master's feet. He ran two fingers along the instep of Qui-Gon's right foot. A sound that resembled a giggle tore from Qui-Gon's mouth when Obi-Wan repeated the action, only following the same line with his tongue.

Obi-Wan chuckled as he bent his head to nip each of his Master's toes. Qui-Gon squirmed under him, trying to improve his position. The young Jedi allowed it, he was getting rather anxious as well. Stopping his attention to Qui-Gon's toes, Obi-Wan began to kiss a path up the inside of Qui-Gon's legs.

As Qui-Gon got closer, Obi-Wan breathed across Qui-Gon's erection just before taking the whole shaft into his mouth. He opened himself to it, and then sucked up to the tip. He went down on his Master again writhing, this time letting Qui-Gon set the pace.

Obi-Wan pulled back when he sensed that the Jedi Master was near his peak, and continued to pump the erection with his hand. With his other hand, he massaged Qui-Gon's testicles. It was not long before the sticky whiteness covered Qui-Gon's stomach.

A moment later, Obi-Wan leaned over the gasping Jedi, and licked a long line through the substance. His Master sighed in release, while Obi-Wan lifted some of the ejaculate into his mouth. With his mouth still full, the Padawan leaned over and kissed Qui-Gon.

Beneath the blindfold, Qui-Gon's eyes widened. His surprise passing, he leaned into the kiss. He could taste himself on his lover's tongue. The kiss deepened when Qui-Gon laced his hands through Obi-Wan's soft hair, pulling Obi-Wan down on top of him.

When the kiss ended, Obi-Wan reached up and pulled the blindfold from Qui-Gon's eyes. "Did you enjoy your lesson, Master?" Obi-Wan asked, staring into Qui-Gon's deep blue eyes.

Qui-Gon pulled Obi-Wan's mouth back to his own. After exploring the inside of the Padawan's mouth with his tongue, the kiss ended. "An unforgettable exercise, I must admit," he replied, his gaze not leaving Obi-Wan's. "Although I am surprised you left out the candle."

"It would be foolish to give away all my ideas so quickly, don't you think?" Obi-Wan asked with a drowsy smile. "Besides, the Sugrai system is still several days away." He then slid from Qui-Gon and moved to lay next to him.

A moment later, Qui-Gon turned Obi-Wan so that they were tucked into a spooning position. Leaning over, Qui-Gon kissed Obi-Wan's temple. He pulled a sheet over them, and for a moment, they lay there in silence, listening to the sounds of two hearts beating.

"Sweet dreams, my Padawan," he said, tracing a hand casually over Obi-Wan's side.

Obi-Wan smiled, and settled back into Qui-Gon's embrace. He sighed contentedly, and turned his face sideways. His voice hardly a whisper, he said, "Only of you."

Qui-Gon smiled, letting his fingers trace the softness of Obi-Wan's lips, which were slightly parted with approaching sleep. "I do love you, Obi-Wan," he whispered, his voice so soft the sound barely landed on Obi-Wan's ear.

Obi-Wan, on the very edge of sleep, smiled.
