The BLTS Archive - Legato Part of The Symphony series by Espressivo (espressivo@nettrash.com) --- Geordi rolled over again, and cursed in a low voice as the bed sheets caught tighter around his legs. This was ridiculous. He usually fell asleep at once but it wasn't happening that way tonight, the night he could really do with it too. Riker would be down in engineering all day tomorrow going over the plasmonic confinement conduit specs with him, and no doubt driving Geordi's entire team to distraction with his constant nagging. Geordi sighed and shifted on the bed trying to find a more comfortable position. Angrily, he kicked his feet free of the twisted sheet and swung them to the carpet as he sat up and cursed again, louder this time. He flashed an angry look at Data. Oh, that was just typical, wasn't it? Here he was tossing and turning all night while a damn android got more sleep than he did. Yep, that was fair. He briefly considered waking Data up before shaking his head and stomping off to the small bathroom. He was almost halfway there when he tripped over the cat. Closing his eyes against the sudden brightness of Data's immaculate bathroom, Geordi felt his way over to the shower and activated the water controls. Stepping under the spray, he let his head hang forward so that the hot water could work directly on the muscles of his well-developed shoulders. It pelted the back of his neck and ran over the top of his shoulders to form twin rivers that flowed over his chest and stomach until they merged again in the thick hair of his groin. The steady pounding against his spine also served to drown his chaotic thoughts until both his mind and his body succumbed to total, blissful relaxation. Geordi didn't even bother to open his eyes when he heard the shower door open and felt Data's familiar slim body slide between him and the tiled wall. Gentle arms encircled his torso and delicate, long fingered hands flattened against his chest, pressing his body back until his spine rested against the android's solid chest. Geordi allowed himself to sag against Data's body, confident that his weight wouldn't discomfort his friend, and enjoying the safe feeling that always stole over him when Data held him in his arms. The engineer's head lolled back against Data's shoulder as he began to stroke the skin of Geordi's chest lightly, following the lines of the muscles there. One hand stole upward to trace the arch of Geordi's throat as the other continued to map the flesh of his upper body. Geordi drew in his breath sharply as a thumb and forefinger briefly caught and pinched a nipple and then returned to their mild exploration. Data shifted his hips slightly, freeing his trapped penis and allowing the hardening member to stand at a more comfortable angle. Geordi leaned back against the stiffness pressed between his buttocks and lower back and Data's stomach, and was rewarded with a light kiss on the side of his neck. The hands disappeared briefly. When they returned they came bearing a lightly scented gel. Data began to stroke this on Geordi's body, creating a thick, white lather that contrasted sharply with his dark flesh. The moist air of the bathroom filled with the masculine smell of the lotion, rich and musky. Foam slid down Geordi's stocky thighs and calves, dripping onto his feet to eventually swirl towards the drain. Data's hands moved without friction now, palms sliding freely over his friend's hard nipples, broad chest, and flat belly. They began to press more firmly against the lax muscles under them, working any lingering tension away with smooth patterns, from Geordi's throat to the very tops of his thighs, all that Data could reach. When Data finally wrapped his hand around Geordi's erection he used no pressure whatsoever, leaving a thin film of lather between his hand and Geordi's penis. The frictionless gliding of bubbles against his shaft was tantalizing, but it left Geordi wanting more while yet still wishing the sensation would never end. Gathering more foam from Geordi's thigh in his other hand, Data swirled it over the head of his penis, slowly sliding his fingers over the taut skin. And with one hand teasing the head and one hand now firm on the shaft, Data increased the speed and firmness of his pumping until he felt Geordi stiffen against his body, and then relax once more. Data guided Geordi around until he was standing under the spray and tenderly washed the soap from him. It only took a few minutes to enfold him in one of the thick white towels and dry him off, and then Data carried his friend into the bedroom and laid him gently between the sheets. --- The End
