Summary
     Sam asks Dean for help masturbating.
     (Dean's twenty one, Sam's seventeen)
"Dean?" Sam walked up beside the Impala, his hands shoved deep into his pockets
and his long hair spilling over his forehead, almost touching his eyes. Dean
pulled himself out from under the hood of the car and straightened up, quirking
a brow at his younger brother. Even though they were four years apart, Sam was
the same height as Dean and he found himself wondering when the kid had grown
so tall. He smiled at Sam and grabbed a rag that lay on the front bumper.
"What's up, kid?" Dean wiped his hands on the rag and leaned against the front
of the Impala, his eyes narrowed slightly as the sun beat down on them. Sam
chewed his bottom lip and brought a hand out of his pocket, his fingers
immediately going to his hair, running through it slowly. Quirking a brow, Dean
slipped the rag into his back pocket and hooked his thumbs into his belt loops.
As he watched Sam fidget - his fingers moving nervously from the back of his
hair to his bangs, pushing them out of his eyes - Dean breathed in deeply and
leaned his hip against the Impala.
"I just, uh, had a question but you're busy so I'll come back later.." Sam's
hand dropped back to his pocket and Dean chuckled softly, shaking his head
before turning to the car. His hands moved from his jeans to the edge of the
hood and he lowered it slowly, letting it fall gently. "Now I'm not busy, so
tell me what's on your mind, Sammy." Dean cracked a smile at Sam and their eyes
met, before the youngest looked down at the ground again.
"Can we go inside and talk about this?" Dean could hear how nervous Sam was and
he nodded slowly, clapping a hand against Sam's shoulder. The feel of Dean's
hand against his shoulder made Sam smile a bit and he looked up, their eyes
meeting once more. Nodding slowly, Sam turned and pulled away from his
brother's touch, listening to the crunch of gravel as Dean followed him. The
two of them walked up the stairs and to the room they shared, Sam walking in
first, followed closely by Dean.
"So what's up, Sam? What's so important that we have to be inside to talk about
it?" Dean teased slightly as he collapsed into a chair in the corner of the
room. He kicked his feet up and laid them on the board at the end of his bed
and watched as Sam sat on the edge of his own. With both hands, Sam pushed his
hair out of his face and backwards, sighing deeply.
"I have a problem with…" Sam struggled to get the words out and he sighed
again, gripping two handfuls of his hair. "Masturbation," he mumbled the word
and felt his cheeks grow hot, his eyes downcast and set on the carpet beneath
his feet. Silence hung in the air and Sam was afraid to look up; terrified to
face Dean, in case the eldest thought it was funny, or wasn't taking him
seriously. When he finally mustered the courage to look up, Sam stared at Dean,
who was leaning forward, his arms resting on his thighs.
"What's the problem? You wait until I'm asleep, in the shower or out somewhere,
and you just stroke it." Dean's forehead furrowed in confusion and he lifted a
hand, brushing the palm of his hand against his stubble. "I mean, it's easy,
Sammy." He laughed softly, studying his brother's eyes quietly before they
dropped. Sighing, Dean stood up and walked over to Sam, sitting on the edge of
his bed; their knees almost touching.
"When I do it, it doesn't feel good, and nothing on the TV, or those books you
have help me… you know, get ready." Sam swallowed hard and nosed the carpet
with the tip of his boot, picking at a hole in his jeans. He didn't have to
look up to know that Dean was staring at him and he sighed, shaking his head.
"Nevermind, it was a stupid question I'm sor—"
"No, it wasn't a stupid question," Dean interrupted as he moved a hand to the
side of Sam's neck, pulling his gaze up. "It's just, kind of surprising, that's
all." When Sam's eyes locked on his own, Dean smiled and dropped his hand,
chewing on his bottom lip. "Tell you what, uh.." Swallowing hard, Dean chuckled
and moved his hand to the back of his neck, scratching it lightly.
"How about these? Hold on," he mumbled and lay back on the bed, turning over
onto his stomach after a moment, reaching underneath the bed. Sam watched his
every move and bit his bottom lip, watching as his flannel shirt slid up
slightly, showing the tanned skin underneath. He shifted his hands to the front
of his lap and watched Dean sit up and face him again. In his hands, Dean held
a stack of magazines that Sam had never seen before. "You can look at one, Sam,
it's not going to bite you."
Nodding slowly, Sam reached out, almost reluctantly, and grabbed the magazine
that lay on the top. When he brought it back, Sam flipped it open and looked at
the pictures, surprised to see that they were only of men. After turning a few
more pages, Sam looked up at Dean, who had a small smile on his face, his
cheeks flushed slightly.
"You look at these?" Sam quirked a brow and looked back down at the magazine,
his eyes scanning over the pictures. He heard Dean chuckle and it made him
smile a bit, until he felt Dean's hand in his hair, ruffling it gently. Each
time Dean touched him, it sent Sam crazy and he closed his eyes, sighing
deeply. "I just didn't want you finding out - not anytime soon, anyway." Dean
shrugged and dropped his hand onto his knee, the stack of magazines on the
floor beside his bed.
"Tell you what, you look at them, and when you're ready… I'll talk you through
it; tell you what I do to make myself feel good. Sound alright?" Dean watched
as Sam ducked his head, his bangs falling in front of his face. Chuckling, Dean
pushed the dark brown locks away and moved his hand to Sam's chin, cupping it
gently before pulling his gaze up. "Don't be embarrassed, Sammy."
"Okay.." Sam nodded and felt Dean's hand fall away, listening to the bed
springs squeak as he got up, the soft pad of his boots signaling that he was
walking away. Swallowing hard, Sam stood and undid his jeans slowly, kicking
his boots underneath Dean's bed as he shoved the denim down his legs slowly. He
kicked them away and tugged his shirt off, tossing it onto the bed behind him.
Once he was standing in only a tank top and boxers, Sam sat on the mattress and
moved back, leaning against the headboard.
Spreading his legs slightly, Sam flipped through the magazine for a few more
minutes, one hand turning the pages while the other moved against the front of
his boxers. Soon, he was fully hard and panting lightly, completely unaware of
Dean sitting in the chair, watching his every move. Swallowing hard, Sam tossed
the magazine onto Dean's bed and their eyes met for a second. Dean smiled at
Sam and leaned back against the chair, his legs out-stretched and crossed.
"Boxers off, Sammy." Dean's voice was soft and Sam shivered when he heard it,
hooking his thumbs into the waistband of his boxers, tugging them down. He
kicked them to the end of the bed and lay his legs flat on the bed, his bottom
lip between his teeth. Swallowing hard, Dean let his eyes roam over Sam's body
and he sighed heavily, his eyes moving up until they met Sam's once more. "Now,
grip the base of your cock - yeah, just like that."
Sam wrapped his index finger and thumb around the base of his cock while Dean
spoke and felt his face, neck and chest grow warm. He'd had dreams about doing
this, watching him masturbate, and to know that it was really happening only
made Sam harder. Dropping his eyes from Dean, Sam looked down at his cock and
ran his free hand up and down the inside of his thigh, shivering lightly.
"Now, stroke up and down slowly, wrapping your other fingers around the shaft."
Dean almost sighed the words out and Sam looked up, their eyes locking for a
moment before the youngest nodded, obeying. He wrapped his fingers around his
cock and stroked up and down slowly, his breath hitching in his throat as he
tipped his head back. Parting his lips, Sam moaned lightly and scratched the
inside of his thigh, dragging his nails up lightly.
Across the room, Dean shifted positions, sitting on the edge of the chair with
his elbows bent and resting on his knees. His eyes were glued on the scene in
front of him, taking in every inch of Sam's gorgeous, perfect body. Swallowing
hard, Dean moved a hand to his jeans, pressing his palm against the front
slowly, his other hand resting against his jaw. In the back of his mind, Dean
knew that it was probably wrong what they were doing, especially seeing as they
were both enjoying it, but he didn't care. All he wanted to do was crawl onto
the bed with Sam and push his hand away, replacing it with his own as they
kissed.
"Good, now move that hand," Dean tipped his head toward the hand on Sam's
thigh, as if the kid could see him, "to your balls and cup them gently.." He
watched as Sam did everything he said; his large hand cupping his balls, his
fingers kneading them slowly. Growling softly, Dean chewed on his bottom lip
and leaned against the back of the chair, both of his hands moving to his
jeans. As he watched Sam's hands go to work, Dean undid his jeans and slipped
his hand in, palming his own cock through his boxers.
"That's good, Sammy.." Dean moaned out, bucking his hips against his hand,
watching as Sam tipped his head forward, his bottom lip between his teeth.
Chuckling softly, Dean lifted his hips and slid his hand out of his jeans,
gripping the pant legs before tugging them down. With his pants around his
ankles, he slipped his hand back to his boxers and stroked himself through the
thin cotton, breathing deeply.
"Dean…" Sam sighed the words out as his eyes moved from Dean's to his lap,
watching his fingers wrap around his covered cock. Shivering, he pushed himself
away from the headboard and sat on the edge of the bed, his hand still wrapped
around his own cock. Without thinking, Sam stood up and walked over to the
chair Dean was sitting in, straddling his legs.
"What are you doing, Samm-" Dean's words were cut off by Sam's lips pressing
against his own and he groaned softly at the interruption but didn't protest.
Swallowing hard, Sam closed his eyes and moved one of his hands to the back of
Dean's neck, gripping it gently as he slipped his other hand down. His fingers
ran along the underside of Dean's cock and Sam felt his hands move to his hips,
gripping them tightly.
The kiss was slow at first as Sam tested the waters and grabbed Dean through
his boxers, a muffled moan filling the space between them. Smiling, Sam pulled
away and licked his bottom lip before taking it between his teeth, his hand
stroking Dean slowly. He watched as Dean tilted his head back and closed his
eyes; listened as he breathed in deeply, his hands gripping Sam's hips even
harder than before. As Sam leaned forward, he felt one of Dean's hands move
down his thigh, fingers splaying against his skin as he ran them up slowly.
"Dean, I want you to touch me, please.." Sam whispered the words out and
listened to Dean moan as he pulled his head forward, eyes locking on Sam's.
Smiling softly, he nodded and moved his hand toward Sam's cock, his fingertips
barely brushing along the base as the pad of his thumb ran along the underside
of his shaft. Sam moaned and closed his eyes, chewing on his bottom lip as he
felt Dean's rough, calloused skin rubbing against him.
"C'mere, Sammy.." Dean moved his free hand to the back of Sam's neck and pulled
him closer, their lips instantly touching. Inhaling deeply through his nose,
Dean wrapped his hand around Sam's cock and stroked it slowly, his tongue
lapping against the youngest's lips. Whimpering, Sam parted his lips and
slipped his tongue through them, the tip barely grazing against Dean's, sending
shivers through his entire body.
Dean wrapped his tongue around Sam's and tilted his head slightly, holding Sam
in place as he pushed himself into the kiss. Ignoring the voice in the back of
his head, he pushed his hips against Sam's hand, grinding against it as they
kissed. Sam could feel his body grow warmer with each stroke of Dean's hand and
he moaned into the kiss, slipping his hand under the waistband of his brother's
boxers.
Feeling Sam's fingers brushing along his cock, Dean bit his tongue lightly and
moaned, pulling away from the kiss and tilting his head back again. It had been
too long since he'd felt the touch of someone other than himself, and knowing
it was Sam that was touching him, only made Dean throb harder. Swallowing hard,
Dean gripped Sam's cock tightly and stroked it harder, listening to him inhale
sharply.
"Come for me, Sam…" Dean half-moaned the words out, his fingers tangling in
Sam's hair, tugging it gently. He listened to Sam moan louder and gasp for
breath, whimpering ever few minutes - when Dean would squeeze his cock.
Smiling, Dean wrapped an arm around Sam and shifted them to the edge of the
chair, moving his hand off of Sam's cock for a minute. "Wrap your legs around
my waist," he whispered, pressing his nose against the base of Sam's throat,
feeling his legs slide against his sides.
Breathing deeply, Dean slipped his hand underneath Sam's ass and stood up,
staggering a bit before getting a hold of his footing. He walked slowly to the
bed, taking small steps until his knees his the edge of the mattress.
Reluctantly, Dean leaned down and laid Sam on the bed, pulling his hands away
before moving them to his boots, yanking them off quickly. The jeans came off
after his shoes, and finally his boxers fell to the ground, before Dean was
sitting on the bed, leaning against the headboard.
He spread his legs and smiled, pulling Sam toward him until he felt Sam's shins
resting against the back of his thighs. Swallowing hard, Dean moved his hand
from Sam's hips to his cock, gripping it once more before stroking it slowly.
Sam let out a cry of pleasure and moved his hands to Dean's legs, his
fingernails digging into his skin. Dean bit his lip and watched Sam carefully;
his eyes were darker than before, and blown from lust, and he grinned slightly.
"Come for me, right now," Dean growled the words out and watched Sam's head
fall back, his throat exposed as his hands ran up and down Dean's thighs
slowly. His entire body shook as Dean stroked his cock harder, whispering and
moaning in encouragement. With one final groan, Sam let loose; coming hard all
over himself, Dean, and the bed. Panting heavily, he fell back against the bed
and listened to Dean chuckle, feeling his hand fall away.
"Good job." Dean crawled over Sam's body and placed a kiss on his lips before
pulling away, wrapping his hand around his own cock. "Wanna make me come,
Sammy?" he whispered, moving his lips up and down Sam's neck slowly, listening
to him pant and groan. When he pulled away, Dean saw Sam nodding slowly and he
grinned, returning the gesture before falling back against the headboard.
Pulling his hand away, Dean spread his legs again and watched as Sam sat up and
hunched forward, his hand crawling toward his cock. Shivering in anticipation,
Dean chewed the inside of his cheek and kept his eyes on Sam; moving his gaze
from Sam's slightly messy hair to his hips, ass, and even his back. Swallowing
hard, he lifted a hand and weaved his fingers through the teen's hair, feeling
his palm against his shaft.
"Fuck, Sam.." Dean tilted his head back and closed his eyes, his lips parting
as he moaned, feeling Sam's hand wrap around the base of his cock. It didn't
take long for his body to react to Sam's touch; his legs shook from the moment
he felt Sam's warm skin against his cock. Swallowing hard, Dean gripped Sam's
hair harder and bucked his hips up when the teen started stroking him.
The seconds turned to minutes and Dean was holding out; making himself last so
he could feel Sam's touch even longer. But when he felt hot breath against the
head of his cock, Dean moaned loudly and held Sam in place, moving his hips
against his hand. Groaning, Dean shoved both of his hands into Sam's hair and
gripped it tightly, feeling the teen's tongue against his cock.
"I'm coming.. Sam, oh fuck..!" Dean nearly screamed as he came, getting some of
it on Sam's tongue, face, and hand. Panting, he pulled his hands away from
Sam's hair and placed them on his shoulders, groaning as his orgasm subsided.
Sam chuckled and pulled away, sitting back on his heels as he licked his lips.
Breathing deeply, Dean opened his eyes and tipped his head forward, smiling
softly at Sam.
"Wow," they both said at the same time and Dean laughed, shaking his head as he
grabbed the bed sheet, cleaning Sam's come off of his hand. He handed the sheet
to Sam and watched as he wiped his face and hand, a small smile on his face.
"Well, now you know how to make me come," Dean whispered and chuckled as Sam
dropped the sheet, sitting at the foot of the bed, his cheeks flushed slightly.

me of
course," she said, smiling. She glanced at the door. "And you need to close
that door, love. This can't be explained away."
He looked at the door, and shook his head. How stupid could he be? Percy could
walk in here at any moment. "I think that's a brilliant idea." He kissed her
forehead, and then moved, hating the very idea of being away from her.
Charlie reached for his robe, fishing his wand inside a pocket. The door was
soon closed, and the spell cast so that the room was sound proof. Another flick
of his wrist and they were clean. He lay on his back, and pulled her close to
him. "You can make as much noise as you want now. Percy can't hear a thing." He
brushed her hair. "I'm happy, love, happier than I've been in...ever."
She sat up, letting her shirt fall off her arms, blushing as she undid her bra.
She pulled the sheets over them, not bothering with her skirt, and snuggled in
close. "I think I've made enough noise," she said, her skin on fire. "I
certainly wasn't quiet." She looked up at him, her head on his chest. "I'm
happy with you, too, you know? I adore you."
"I bet I can make you scream more. I just have to try harder," he teased as if
nothing had happened, just like he would have only a few hours ago before
they... before they became lovers, and this was the key, the one thing that had
made him confide in her. She was more than a sister, more than a lover; she was
someone who understood him completely. "I don't know what I've done to deserve
you, love, but I won't disappoint you. I promise."
"You couldn't disappoint me," she said, smiling. "Impossible." She ran her
fingers over his stomach, trailing her fingers over the coarse hair at his
groin, surprised at her own daring. "And I'll tell you a secret," she
whispered. "I bet you could make me scream more without trying too terribly
hard."
"Then we'll have to keep trying to see how loudly you can scream," he said,
grinning. Charlie felt her hand move down his body, so tiny compared with his
hands, but capable to evoke the strongest feelings inside him. "I'm all yours,
love. You can touch, and kiss, and lick, and bite, you can even see how loudly
you can make me scream. I told you, anything at all."
Ginny propped up on his chest, sliding further on top of him, her hair falling
in a curtain around their faces. "I like the sound of that," she whispered,
smiling. She became more serious at his next words. "I don't want to disappoint
you," she said carefully. "I'd be lying if I said I knew what I was doing. I
want to please you. You might have to help me with that." She blushed but held
his gaze, her fingers moving over his face, knowing she could say anything to
him, even if it embarrassed her. "Charlie. You... are so beautiful."
His fingers moved over her cheek with tenderness. "You don't own a mirror, I
see, and it's my turn to share a secret, two actually. One, you are absolutely
breathtaking, and this comes from a man who rarely looks at women. Two, you
could never disappoint me. I'll teach you anything you want to know, we can try
anything you want. You'll never have to wonder with me, never be afraid to ask,
there is nothing taboo between us. Understood?"
She was sure her skin must be blindingly red. She wasn't used to such sweet
compliments and she kissed him firmly on the lips, taking care to run her
tongue over them, as he'd done to her earlier. "I love you," she murmured,
embarrassed at blurting it out again, but not able to control it. She wanted to
say it again and again until the words melted into his skin, until he could
hear them even when she wasn't around. She let herself relax over him, so very
happy, so much happier than she thought she could be. The necklace gleamed in
the dimming light. "I understand." She looked at him and smirked a bit. "I
promise to be a very good student," she said cheekily, wriggling against him.
"I bet you will. We can start with dildos, plugs and clamps," he said, matching
her own smirk. Charlie shifted until he could reach between her legs, still
warm and moist from her orgasm. "I'll make you study, again and again until
you'll be sore," he whispered in her ear, while his fingers exposed her once
more, "you'll beg me to stop while still wanting more."
She parted her legs without thought, pressing back into his fingers. "Charlie,"
she said, blushing. He was much better at teasing than she was. She'd need to
work on that. She wasn't sure how she could, not with Charlie saying such
things, leaving her unable to think. "I think you could make me come just by
talking to me," she whispered, flexing her thighs and riding back on his
fingers.
"We should find out. I could tie you up, teasing you for hours," he started,
his voice low and intimate, his lips brushing against her ear. "I'd touch you,
just like I am now, pressing my fingers inside you, brushing your clit. I'd
kiss your breasts, and your ties. I'd lick you, and eat you up, bringing you to
the brink again, and again, but never let you come, and I'd stop, and your
hands would be tied, and you wouldn't be able to move, but you'd be aching for
me, and I'd talk to you, breathing against your pussy." Charlie pinched her
clit, before rubbing it again. "Do you think you could come with my breath and
my words? Could you do that for me, love?"
"I could... do anything you asked of me," she moaned, arching her back, opening
herself up more for him. "I'd give you everything." She kissed his face, his
lips, her eyelids heavy with desire, breathless and wanton. She could feel
herself coating his fingers, so very wet at his words, at the images they
provoked.
Her lips moved over his chin, his jaw, nudging his head to the side, her teeth
grazing over his pulse point before biting down. She'd never get enough of him.
One hand slid over his chest, her fingers finding his nipple, rubbing it
softly. "Everything," she whispered again, her words soft against his throat.
"Good, and for now-" Charlie shifted, pushing the sheets away, exposing her to
his gaze, and then he was lying on his side, a hand in her hand. "For now, I'm
going to watch you come on my fingers. I want to see you, all of you. Spread
your legs for me, love. Let me see you." He had no doubt that she'd do as he
asked, but the blush... he loved that blush, that innocence she had.
She held his hand tight, her body on fire at his request. She wanted to hide
her face in his neck, but she simply closed her eyes, moaning, as she spread
her legs wide for him. She felt exposed, vulnerable, and her body responded,
arching up into his touch. "Kiss me," she begged, almost sobbing in her need.
"Need you." She let her other hand slide down her body, covering his fingers
with her own, feeling warm wetness against his hand.
"You have me forever." With that promise, he sealed his lips on hers, before he
began to fuck her mouth, while his fingers fucked her with the same rhythm. He
continued like this for a few moment, feeling her breath shorten against his
mouth. Then he pulled back, his eyes travelling over her, covering every part
of her body. "You'll come, won't you? Just like this, with me watching you,
legs spread for me...god, Gin, you're dripping, you're so bloody wet, I can see
it...pinch your nipples, show me how you like it..." So fucking beautiful like
this, and he waited to see the moment when she lost all control.
"Fuck," she hissed, squeezing her eyes shut tight. Her thighs trembled as he
fucked her and she couldn't catch her breath as her muscles tightened around
his fingers. So deep, so wet, and she felt sore already where he thrust into
her, again and again, but she wanted more. She obeyed him, bringing her hands
to her breasts, blushing violently and turning her head away from him, so
completely embarrassed, so very aroused. Her nipples were hard against her
palms and she pinched them between her fingers, twisting and tugging, the
sensations heightened with every touch, with every push. Her teeth dug into her
lower lip, so close, almost, and her head pressed back hard against the pillow
as her belly tightened, his hand speeding her toward the edge and over.
He felt her clench around him, shaking from her orgasm. He continued to draw
small circle over her clit, stopping only when he could tell that pleasure had
morphed into pain because of the stimulation. Then he covered her body with
his, trapping her heat under him. His head rested on her face, and he planted
little kisses as he spoke. "Next time, you'll keep your eyes open. Hell, we'll
have mirrors so you can see how beautiful you are. You are incredible, love."
Ginny wrapped her arms around him weakly, still trembling, loving the feel of
him, warm and secure on top of her. Her eyes fluttered open as he kissed her
face and she smiled at him. "Mirrors?" she asked, blushing at the thought. "I'd
rather look at you." She nuzzled her face against his, letting her hands slide
over his back, her thighs twine with his. "What can I do for you?" she asked
shyly, biting her lip once more.
"I thought you were a brave Gryffindor, and you're scared of a few mirrors,
tsk, tsk, and you don't have to do anything. I've been accused of being an old
man, and I couldn't possibly..." he trailed off with a grin.
Charlie rolled off, carrying her on top of him. He accioed the sheets and
wrapped them around her back. "I've got what I need right here."
She slid her thigh up over him, her arm wrapping around his chest. "I didn't
say I was scared," she said, smiling. "Just that you're much more interesting
to look at." She lifted her head and kissed his cheek. "And you're not old."
Reaching for his hand, she twined their fingers together. His fingers were
still slick and she brought them to her lips, kissing them gently before
letting her tongue peek out to lap at them. She sucked one finger in between
her lips, laving her tongue across it as she sucked, tasting herself. "You
really are wonderful," she said, pulling back and offering him another shy
smile.
"Yeah, yeah, I'd got you off twice, of course I'm wonderful," he teased, with a
grin. He kissed her forehead, sighing. "You want to take a nap before I take
you home." Charlie would have loved to have here there all night, wake up with
her warm body pressed against his, but even in his recklessness, he knew that
it was pushing, not with Percy in the same house, knowing that he was hiding
behind spells. "I wish you could stay."
"That's not why you're wonderful, babe." She settled in next to him, warm and
sated. It would be so nice to wake up next to him in the morning, but she knew
it was out of the question. "I wish I could stay too," she whispered, letting
her eyes fall shut. Charlie held her close, his heart beat steady against her
ear and she sighed. A nap sounded lovely.
