Shaky Ground
Chapter 6 Gan Ning woke up startled and found himself lying on warm sheets and covers inside a tent. His wounds had been treated and his body was bandaged at some places. Even though he felt the pain that spread through his body force him to stay and rest, he moved out of the warm mattress and walked hastily outside; one insistent thought pounding into his head. When the warrior left the tent, he saw several looks of astonishment; no one was expecting him to be walking around already. "What are you doing?" Gan Ning turned and saw Lu Meng staring at him. "Where's Ling Tong?" The man arched one eyebrow; there was something in the blond officer's eye—an emotion so strong—that made Lu Meng feel unsure if he should answer. Then he saw the younger man moving towards him, grabbing his shoulders. "Where is he?" "You shouldn't be walking around..." Lu Meng started but he saw the man's piercing gaze and knew that Gan Ning wouldn't give up until he got an answer, so the older man realized there was no other option than saying what the stubborn warrior wanted to know. xxx Gan Ning walked to a tent's direction—as fast as his wounded body let him—and saw an unexpected scene when he entered. Sun Quan was kneeling on the carpet, leaning his body over Ling Tong. "Please, come back to us soon. I... I'll be forever grateful, I will give you a great title and land for you. What will I do if I lose you?" Sun Quan whispered. Gan Ning frowned. I didn't know he had a thing for Ling Tong... It's disturbing. The ex-pirate moved boldly towards the bed. "My lord," he took a deep breath, trying his best to control the sudden pang of jealousy. "I need to talk to him." Sun Quan was startled by the man's presence; he didn't realize he had entered. "Gan Ning... I'm glad you are better! For a moment... I almost thought I had lost both of you. I don't know if I could handle the grief of losing two of my precious officers, not you two." Gan Ning saw the look of relief and admiration in the man's eyes and felt a little guilty for being jealous of him. "Is he alright?" "He's alive." Alive. "Then he will live." He knelt beside Sun Quan and inspected Ling Tong's body. He was lying on the bed with his long hair covering the pillow in a dark curtain and a white robe loosely covering his body warped in bandages. "We're doing our best to keep him alive. He managed to hold on for these days." "Days?" Gan Ning asked in surprise. "Yes. Two days. We made sure there was no way Zhang Liao could reach us and made camp. Thanks to my Gongji, Wei troops have been delayed." Gan Ning didn't realize that two days had passed; he must have been really out of energy for that to happen. "What happened after... after I jumped into the water?" He only remembered staying with Ling Tong until he lost consciousness. "Oh, I was desperate when I saw you jumping and insisted on sending men to go after you. They came back with you two, they said you found Gongji and might have been trying to bring him to the ship." Gan Ning didn't remember it. "My lord, can I ask you if I could be alone with him?" "Of course." He stood up and walked some, before stopping at the tent's entrance. "You really made me proud of you... To be able to do all that to rescue him... It was really noble." "It wasn't nobility that made me go after him." "Whatever it was, I thank you." And Sun Quan left the tent. Gan Ning caressed the brown locks of Ling Tong's hair briefly before kissing his lips. He wished the man could respond to the kiss, but he kept still. It was really disturbing to see him unresponsive, so the ex-pirate bit on his neck, hoping to see a frown on his lover's face. The smell of medicinal herbs was filling his nostrils as he bit a little harder on Ling Tong's neck, hoping to see something, a sign, anything. He wanted so much to see some expression, something that showed that the man was alive, apart from his breathing and heartbeat. Gan Ning wanted him to wake up, so he moved his hands over Ling Tong's torso and tried to tickle him, for a moment thinking he had seen a small frown. He smirked and tickled him more, lying his head on the brunet's chest. "I knew you could take Zhang Liao and survive... that's my boy," he whispered. But that was it; Gan Ning was convinced that he couldn't make Ling Tong wake up at that time, so he stared at him some more before moving to the tent's entrance and whispering a silent good night. xxx Gan Ning woke up with a terrible hunger. In the previous night he had slept as soon as he reached his bed and he didn't remember dreaming about anything. He was feeling quite better after the recovering hours of sleep; the pain in his body had subdued and he felt the needed to move some. He left his tent and headed to the place where he could find some food. When the officer stepped into the place, soldiers greeted him and served him. Even though they were happy to see him, the mood was not so bright due to their retreat. It was very strange... to lose a battle. It was bitter and it made him want to forget everything that happened. What calmed him down a bit was feeling the thick soup warm his body and the taste of the rice balls he was munching so eagerly. It wasn't the best banquet he had in his life, but at that moment, it was almost as if it were. When the young officer sated his stomach some, he saw a man approaching the place and he promptly stood up at the sight. "Old man!" "Heh, see you recovered your appetitte." "Never lost it." "And what about your wounds, think you'll recover soon?" Lu Meng patted the man's back gently and sat. "This is nothing, I'm already better. But what about you, old man, are you okay?" "Again with the old man?" He frowned. "Of course I'm okay, I'm here, right?" Gan Ning looked over the older man's form and didn't think he was in top condition, but then he didn't want to argue. "But I guess you're right," Lu Meng said. "I'm starting to think I'm too old for all this. Maybe it's time to leave the battles to the young, but... I think I still have something to do before I retire." "I'm not really bothered to have you around. I guess we all have to learn with those who are older and lived many many years... Ouch!" He felt his head being hit. "Insolent pirate." Lu Meng then grabbed some food and started to eat. Gan Ning laughed and ate some more. It was good to see that one of his friends was recovering and eating by his side, but then he remembered that he missed someone there too. His eyes searched for the direction of a certain tent and for a long moment, he couldn't stop staring. Lu Meng perceived the gaze and arched one eyebrow. "Are you worried about him?" "Why shouldn't I? He's my... fellow officer." "I heard he woke up briefly today and ate some, then he went back to sleep." "Why haven't you told me before?" Gan Ning got up and hurried to the place where Ling Tong was in, leaving the rest of his food behind. Lu Meng arched even more his eyebrow as he watched the man disappear inside the tent. They got really close over the time... xxx Gan Ning found Ling Tong sleeping and was slightly frustrated. But then the sight of him breathing steadily in his sleep was somehow comforting. He moved closer and sat on the mattress, beside the lying form. His left hand brushed some locks from the sleeping face and he moved his fingers over the pale skin. Are they feeding him well? The other officer wasn't that pale before. He kissed the man's temple and moved his fingers down his torso. Ling Tong had clean bandages around him and Gan Ning tried to find the parts where the skin was uncovered. Then he brushed a spot made sensitive by a wound and he felt the muscles under his fingers contract as Ling Tong woke up and hissed in pain. The dark-haired man opened his eyes slowly and saw a pair of eyes glowing like fire. "Gan Ning..." His throat felt sore from the lack of use. "Here I am." The man smiled. Ling Tong led both hands to Gan Ning's face and traced it, studying nicely sculpted features. He caressed the blond locks with his left hand and traced the lips with his other hand's fingers and thumb. "I... I was dreaming about you." "I always knew you were kinky." Gan Ning grinned. "Not like that... You were... You were..." "What?" He frowned slightly. "Your body was under a tree." "Dead?" "I guess so..." "Did you kill me?" "I don't know, I guess not. I think you were severely wounded because of a battle." "Hmm... It may happen some day. I think it's the most natural way of dying for me. The important thing is that I die without regrets and that I enjoyed life to the fullest until then. I think I have more years to live, more things to see, but if I died now, I wouldn't be sad. I had a lot of fun and had a lot of adventures at land and at sea. And I've found people that were really important to me, that I really care about. I never thought I'd be so attached to something or someone... I guess, I'd die happy as long as... you don't die before I do." "They told me you saved me," Ling Tong said softly. "I didn't save you, I just couldn't leave without you, so I went back to find you." "Thank you." Those words might have sounded a too simple way to show gratitude, but for Gan Ning they meant the world. "Well... then... What else happened in the dream? Did I have a glorious death?" "No... you were just slumped there..." "..." "Well, I don't remember all the details... just when I was going to see what happened you interrupted my dream, molesting me while I'm in this state, have you no shame?" Gan Ning smirked. "No..." He moved his hand lower. "Y'know, I was thinking... how well are you recovering..." He opened the sash of Ling Tong's robe and guided his hand inside his pants. "You..." Then Ling Tong forgot what he was saying when the hand warped around his member and started to stroke him. He felt his organ hardening and cursed under his breath. Then Gan Ning lowered his lover's pants and freed his member. "You know that we're not in our rooms... and anyone can enter at any moment." He saw the movement of Gan Ning's hand under the sheets and there would be no doubt about what he was doing to him if someone caught them. "What? Our lord, old man or the kid? They're all perverts, they'll like it." "I give up on you." Ling Tong felt the delicious grip sliding up and down and he tried to hold back his moans. Well, deciding that the situation couldn't be much worse if someone walked in, Ling Tong lifted himself up a little and cupped Gan Ning's member over his pants. The man groaned at the unexpected action and soon moved closer to help Ling Tong have a better feel of him. Gan Ning felt the fingers wrapping around him, tracing him and then pressing. His mind swirled slightly when he felt Ling Tong freeing his member from his pants and stroking him continuously. Their cocks soon became smeared in pre-cum and they started a silent competition of who would drive the other to their climax first. It was one of the games they played that didn't matter who won or lost. In that occasion, Ling Tong came first, but then, Gan Ning had the upper hand for starting first. His body was still weak and he didn't give much resistance to Gan Ning's action, letting him guide him to his peak the way he pleased. The ex-pirate smiled in his victory and enjoyed the last strokes of Ling Tong's hand for a while before coming in long and profuse waves. "Damn what a mess you've made..." Ling Tong complained when he saw both his and Gan Ning's convicting proof over their bodies, their bandages and the sheets. "You have to clean this up before someone walks in." "Yeah? Do I have to change your clothes?" "I'm telling you to clean this up, not to make it worse, you pervert." "But I'm trying to help here." He took the sheet off and started to slide Ling Tong's thin garment off his body. "Somehow... I think it's not your true intentions." Gan Ning grinned.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
