There's absolutely no time to get out the incredulous laugh that's threatening at his lips as Toby punctuates his initial thrust with 'Happy birthday to me'. (They'll have to get to that later.) All Dorian can do is gasp and wrap an arm around the other man's neck, clutching hard at his lover as they come together breathtakingly fast. It's a little more than his semi-awake brain can fully appreciate, but that only makes it that much better. They're rushing to the edge as fast as they can, and it's a hell of a more satisfying way to wake up than the cup of espresso that was going to be Dorian's next choice if Toby had gone for his presents first.
"God, this--" Without so much as a second thought, Dorian wraps a hand around his own achingly insistent cock, and quickly moves to try and match the pace of the other man's thrusts. He doesn't bother to restrain a single sign of his enjoyment, moaning and panting openly as they race forward. This is going to happen quickly between them, with virtually no way of slowing down when they're both this eager.
When his orgasm begins to crest, Dorian reaches out and delves his fingers into Toby's gloriously messy hair, drawing the vampire down and into a deep and passionate kiss. This is the way to start a birthday morning, and he's going to enjoy every minute of it in exactly the way he wants while they're still tangled up together.
It's an eager and excited race to get them both off, and Toby enjoys it all the more with all the open expressions of pleasure his boyfriend is offering. He adds his own as he rests a hand over Dorian's on the man's cock, though his grip falters quickly as they crash into and then over the edge together. In the end, he focuses on keeping them together all the way through, then wrapping himself around the other man as they settle into the afterglow together.
"That," he murmurs between what feel like necessary deep breaths, "was a better start to my birthday than presents." Maybe it's because his mind is high on such a pleasant orgasm, but he's sure he'd say similar later. They can have more deliberate birthday sex later and hit all the buttons they both missed in their rush to ecstasy, and it still won't take away from how amazing this round felt.
Once they're both a little more settled, though, the vampire can't help but keep things moving along. It is his birthday and he very much was promised presents. So, after another particularly lovely kiss, Toby grins at the other man. "So my first present is behind the kimono, yeah?" Why, yes, he totally expects there are more gifts happening once they're out of bed, so of course he's going to ask after whatever Dorian's hidden in the closet like this.
Well this? is definitely nice. As soon as they're parted, Dorian lets himself flop bonelessly, happily down into their wonderfully sumptuous bed. Spreading out a bit to get comfortable, his first response to Toby's question is an approving, lazy hum. The second, once he's pulled more of his brain cells together and put them to the task, is,
"Happy birthday to you... and me." Sigh. Yeah, this is the good life. Now the rest of the day can get devoted to presents, a very excited Toby, and whatever else they could possibly want to do together. It's a very domestic sort of afternoon for the both of them, but it's honestly... perfect. Perfect in a way that's particular to them both and that he's grown used to around Toby. (Or had grown used to. This third chance at a life together is still taking time for him to catch up to in a few small ways.)
"Yes, it's behind the kimono. Why don't you bring it out and open it up here?"
That's all the permission he needs! Grin pulling wider, Toby leans in for a last kiss before leaping out of bed. One foot tangles in the sheets at the edge of the bed ("Dammit, let go! I need my present!"), but it's only a brief disruption to the end goal. The vampire disappears into the closet for a moment, rustling around for a few seconds as he carefully moves Dorian's clothes to obtain his present, then brings the wrapped gift back to the bed. He sets it down gently before flopping down between it and his boyfriend.
"Can I get a hint before I open it?" he laughs. "Does it relate to your riddle?" What should he go in expecting from this gift, boyfriend???
Toby's excitement over presents is always fun to watch and be part of. A smile plays about Dorian's lips as the vampire (at first struggles) and then carries the gift back to bed.
"This one was loosely supposed to be the subject of the riddle." The shape, size and weight of the wrapped package might be a little indicative of the Martin's D-28 acoustic guitar nestled inside. In the end, the riddle was about music, but a good portion of it was a red herring to give Toby something to chase. At this point, Dorian doubts the other man will be too unoccupied to mind much. "You'll see why."
The gift is large and guitar case-shaped, but what's waiting inside is well outside Toby's expectations. Why think you're getting a new guitar when you have a working, if only somewhat passable, one already?
"So you mean to say there's more to the riddle that I'll get later?" The vampire returns his boyfriend's smile, then tears off the paper separating him from his guitar. His eyes widen eagerly as he frees the case and turns it over to open it, then he gasps in absolute shock. This? This right here in his hands? This is the stuff of dreams to a practiced musician.
"Holy shit." Toby carefully frees the guitar from the case before taking it properly in hand. He looks it over for a long moment without speaking, then gently strums his fingers across the strings. It's slightly out of tune, but it's still beautiful, far better than the cheap thing he bought while they were apart. He works his way through a few scales to check it over properly, then turns the biggest, sappiest grin toward Dorian.
"You-- I can't-- How did you--" Wait, hang on, that's several thoughts at once, and he already knows 'The Nexus' is the answer to "how did you find this." Toby takes a breath to settle the fluttery feeling in his chest, then smiles eagerly. "Dorian, this is incredible. I-- Thank you doesn't even begin to cover it." Honestly, he's not sure anything could.
Being gentle of his gift, he reaches out and rests a hand on the side of the other man's neck. He smiles at Dorian for a long moment, then draws him in for a deep, grateful kiss. "Any requests?" he asks when they part. "After I tune it, I insist on you picking something you'd like to hear." It feels right, and Toby is happy to play anything his soulmate wants right now.
