Requested: Bashir/O'Brien, towel --- Steam hissed and wafted into the air as Miles splashed water on the hot rocks. He reclined against the wall, not bothering to wipe the sweat from his brow for once. Beside him was his friend and colleague, Julian Bashir, also reclining and equally sweaty. Miles stretched out on the bench and sighed. "It doesn't get much better than this." Julian spared a glance in his direction. "Au contraire, it could get a little better." Miles raised an eyebrow and watched as Julian rose, removed and folded his towel and settled back down on the bench, nude. "Better all ready," smiled Julian. "I see your point." Miles stood and removed his towel. He had to admit, he felt freer and more relaxed as he sank back onto the bench. The two sat in companionable silence for some minutes, letting the sauna do its job. "We should go for some synthehol after, what do you think?" "Sounds like a plan, but first," Julian looked pointedly at the hardening erection embraced by O'Brien's hands, "A massage might be in order." O'Brien stopped stroking his cock and grinned. "You're the doctor." "Precisely, and I say it's time to leave this sweatbox before you get hyperthermia. You're as pink as a newborn vole!" Julian stood and snapped his towel in Miles' direction. "All right, all right", Miles grumbled as he stood up and both men made their way from the sauna to a nearby massage room. Julian patted the massage table, encouraging Miles to hop on. "Now, lie down on your front." He reached over and draped a towel over Miles' backside, then selected one of the fragrant oils and poured some onto his hand. Bashir circled O'Brien while he warmed the oil between his hands. The chief looked extremely comfortable, eyes already closed. With the oil sufficiently warm, Julian stopped level with O'Brien's hips and began working the tension out of O'Brien's muscles. Miles sighed as Julian ran strong hands over his thighs and calves. "That feels wonderful, but don't be afraid to use a little more pressure. You won't break me." "As you wish, Chief." Julian's hands dug deeper into the other man's muscles, eliciting another sigh. O'Brien uttered a weak, "Amazing..." when Julian indicated he should turn over. "Good. Now, I want to try something a little different," Julian's voice was soft as he moved away. "Whatever you got in mind is fine by me." O'Brien settled against the table, resting his eyes. He felt Julian raise his head and then rest it on a soft pillow. "Yep, this is the life." Julian chuckled as he ran a clean, soft towel over Miles' chest. He wanted the other man to really focus on sensation for this part of the massage, so he rolled the towel and arranged it to cover Miles' eyes, tying it loosely behind his head. Miles tensed a little, but Julian eased his fears. "Don't worry; it's just to allow you to concentrate on the sensation of touch." Miles relaxed and Julian began massaging the engineer's hands. The doctor worked his way up one arm, over the shoulders and down the other arm before starting on Miles' toes. He could feel O'Brien melt further into the table as he began easing the stress out of first one leg, then the other. Julian glanced at the prominent bulge under the towel covering Miles' hips. He smiled and began massaging O'Brien's chest. With slow, deliberate strokes he kneaded hard pectoral muscles and strong shoulders. When he earned another moan, Julian knew it was time to move to the next phase. He took hold of one corner of the towel and began dragging it across O'Brien's hips. Miles gasped. With the blindfold on, it was as if he could feel every thread in the fabric as it passed over his sensitive bits. The cool air hitting his skin produced goose bumps and he filled with anticipation at what could happen next. What he hoped would happen next. He heard Julian give an appreciative sigh and just as warm lips began to wrap around him... --- ... Keiko came with a sharp gasp. She waited a few minutes to catch her breath, feeling a little annoyed at having come so early. Apparently, the sight of her husband's penis disappearing between Julian's inviting lips had just been too damn hot. She shook her head and gathered her belongings as she left the holodeck, her mind back on domestic concerns. Dinner wasn't going to prepare itself, you know. --- The End
