The sun hung high in the cloudless azure sky, its rays shimmering on the turquoise waters surrounding the small tropical isle known as Paradise Point. Joshua trudged up a sandy path winding through lush greenery, beads of sweat trickling down his chiseled jaw and dampening his fitted white t-shirt that clung to his well-built physique.
As he rounded a bend, he spotted another man sprawled on a towel by the shore's edge, near where waves lapped gently at the sand. The stranger had an impressive body himself - all lean muscle beneath sun-kissed skin. He was reading but looked up as Joshua approached, revealing striking chocolate brown eyes that seemed to appraise him with intrigue.
Joshua gave a casual nod of greeting before settling his own towel nearby and peeling off his sweat-soaked shirt in the sweltering heat. The stranger's gaze lingered on Joshua's chest for just an extra beat too long before he returned his attention to his book, brown hair fluttering slightly as a breeze kicked up.
"Beautiful day," Joshua remarked conversationally after a moment.
The man glanced over and flashed him a smile that seemed almost shy yet inviting. "Yeah... it really is."
They fell into an easy chat about their shared love of the island's natural beauty, both new arrivals seeking respite from stresses back home in the States - Eric had fled his high-pressure finance job while Joshua was escaping the heartbreak and confusion that came with realizing he wasn't straight like everyone, including him, assumed.
As they talked more, a spark seemed to ignite between them despite their differences. Joshua couldn't help but notice how attractive Eric was...
Later as the sun began its lazy descent in streaks of orange and pink across the horizon, painting an idyllic scene worthy of a postcard - except for that new tension thrumming beneath it all now.
"Do you want to grab dinner together? I'm at a loss on where though..." Eric ventured hesitantly.
Joshua paused before smiling. "I'd love that actually." He thought quickly, then snapped his fingers as an idea struck him. There was this place he'd heard whispers of from the locals...
"Ever been to The Tiki Tavern? Apparently it's quite...exclusive," Joshua said with a grin.
Eric raised one brow but nodded slowly in interest at that intriguing prospect and the unspoken promise hanging heavily between them both now, their eyes locked. Little did they know just how much more than dinner was about to unfold this magical night on Paradise Point... As if by unspoken agreement, they gathered up their belongings and began walking towards where a narrow dirt path led deeper into the island's interior. The sun dipped lower now, casting everything in an amber glow that made Eric look positively radiant beside him.
The Tiki Tavern was hidden away from prying eyes - you had to know it was there. After about fifteen minutes of winding through dense foliage and crossing a small wooden bridge over a burbling stream, they arrived at the entrance: two flaming torches bracketing an arch woven with vines and flowers.
Inside, the tavern buzzed with a lively crowd, but Joshua led them confidently to the bar. The bartender greeted him warmly before pouring two generous glasses of some potent-looking jungle juice without even asking what they wanted.
"What's this?" Eric asked skeptically as he eyed his drink.
"Local special," Joshua winked mysteriously and clinked their glasses together in a toast before downing half the glass in one fiery gulp. The alcohol burned deliciously on its way to his belly, loosening him up further than just from the drinks themselves... being near Eric had that effect too.
As they drank more of those wickedly strong cocktails and talked over the pulsing island music - or rather flirted shamelessly in between stolen glances at each other's bodies glistening with sweat under the tavern lights - Joshua felt his reservations about men slipping away. His eyes kept drifting down to Eric's full lips, wondering how they would feel against certain parts of him...
"Dance?" he blurted out boldly when their drinks were empty again.
Eric stood up first and took Joshua's hand in a firm grip that sent sparks skittering across his skin as the other man led them onto what passed for a dance floor here. It was more like just an open space where people writhed to the primal rhythms shaking the rafters.
Joshua let himself be pulled flush against Eric, one large hand splaying possessively over that lean back while their hips undulated together in time with the music's sensual pulse... He inhaled sharply at the intimate contact after so many charged looks and heated touches hinted but held aloof until now.
Eric spun them around suddenly and Joshua found himself face to chest, having to look up slightly into those deep brown eyes burning molten hot above him as he gripped Eric's firm shoulders for balance.
"Fuck...Joshua," Eric breathed against his temple before claiming the last inches between their mouths in a searing kiss. His lips were even softer than Joshua imagined and tasted of rum, sweat, desire - ambrosia to drink from those sweetly parted petals as he kissed back fervently despite himself.
They stumbled off that makeshift dance floor locked together like they'd been doing this for years instead of just meeting today... finding a shadowed alcove hidden behind some potted palms where the music thrummed distantly. Eric pressed Joshua up against the wall, kissing him again more urgently while deft hands roamed greedily over his sweat-slick chest and abs.
Joshua shuddered under that touch - so unfamiliar yet electrifying from another man's caress after only knowing women before... but god help him he craved more of it now. Of Eric touching every part of him boldly as if they belonged there together like this was always meant to be...
"Eric," Joshua gasped out between deep, filthy kisses slanting across his jaw and down the column of his throat - licking a hot stripe over his racing pulse before nipping sharply at it. "Bedroom... now..."
The other man shuddered violently against him in response but pulled back reluctantly after one last hard smooch on Joshua's mouth swollen from their heated makeouts.
He grabbed for both their hands, intertwining fingers as he led them stumbling through the tavern and out into the sultry tropical night - not stopping until they reached a small thatched hut nestled at the forest edge overlooking an isolated moonlit cove...
Inside was one big room dominated by what looked like an enormous round bed piled high with pillows and silky fabrics in jewel tones against white linens. Eric kicked off his shoes impatiently before turning to face Joshua again, a devilish gleam in those dark eyes now as he slowly peeled away the damp t-shirt clinging obscenely to every rippling muscle.
"Like what you see?"
Joshua licked his lips unconsciously as more and more sun-kissed skin was revealed - a tantalizing V of abs disappearing into the waistband of Eric's shorts that had Joshua's mouth watering with sudden, overwhelming desire to trace every ridge and valley with his tongue.
"Fuck yes," he breathed out reverently, reaching out one trembling hand to ghost fingertips along those defined lines. "You're...incredible."
Eric shivered at the feather-light touch, pupils blown wide with lust as he kicked off his shorts next in a rush - leaving him bare save for a pair of tight black boxer-briefs straining over an impressive erection already.
Joshua swallowed hard seeing it, palms suddenly damp and heart hammering wildly against ribs. He'd never wanted someone this badly before...and the fact that 'someone' was another man both terrified and thrilled him down to his core.
Slowly, as if in a dream - or perhaps a fevered fantasy finally coming true after so many secret longings he could no longer deny - Joshua reached for the hem of his own shirt. He paused only briefly before Eric stepped forward into his space again...and finished stripping it off himself with deft fingers eager now to explore all that tanned expanse.
"God, you're gorgeous," Eric murmured almost wonderingly as he drank in every inch revealed like a man dying of thirst finally given cool water. Joshua flushed hot under the praise and blatant appreciation shining plainly on his handsome face...feeling beautiful for it even if this whole scenario still seemed surreal somehow wrapped up around them.
Then suddenly mouths crashed together again - kissing hard, wet, filthy as they stumbled towards that big bed pawing at each other greedily between tangled caresses. Joshua gasped sharply when Eric's fingers found the button of his shorts...and then he was bare too save for a pair of tight black boxer-briefs riding low on lean hips.
They fell onto silky sheets in a tangle of heated limbs, kissing breathless as hands roamed feverishly - squeezing and stroking over every inch within reach. Joshua shuddered violently when Eric palmed his straining erection through the thin cotton barrier...moaning brokenly into their kiss that had grown sloppy with desperation.
"Need to taste you," Eric growled against slick lips before kissing a searing path down the column of Josh's throat, pausing only briefly at the hollow there where he laved attention on his racing pulse. Joshua tilted back his head offering more as his fingers tangled in that soft brown hair...
Eric took him up on it greedily - sucking and biting little love marks into the sweat-slick skin of his chest before taking a pert nipple between teeth to worry it until Josh cried out sharply...back arching off the bed seeking closer contact. He could feel himself leaking steadily now, boxer-briefs damp with arousal as Eric worked him over so skillfully.
But then he was kissing back down that washboard stomach - dipping his tongue into Joshua's navel briefly before pausing at the waistband of those straining briefs...looking up to meet Josh's eyes smolderingly even as clever fingers dipped beneath cloth to stroke along the weeping length in a feather-light touch.
"Can I?" Eric breathed against that cloth-covered head, thumb rubbing circles over it maddeningly. Joshua could only whimper out his desperate need for more of him... "Please..."
And then those briefs were gone - flung carelessly across the room as he finally freed Josh's aching cock from its confines to lick a broad stripe up one side before swirling that wicked tongue around the leaking tip.
"Fuck..." Joshua groaned low and long, fisting hands in silky sheets at the first touch of Eric's mouth on him there. It was electric...the heat and wet suction as he took Joshua into his skilled mouth inch by excruciating inch until his nose brushed his pelvis...
He started to move then - head bobbing slowly but steadily over Joshua's thick length taking it deeper each time until he hit the back of that hot throat and swallowed around him rhythmically. Stars exploded behind Joshua's eyes at the sensation so intense...he'd never felt anything like this before.
One hand drifted down between his own legs as Eric worked magic on his cock - stroking along heavy balls, teasing where they drew up tight against his body in anticipation of his release fast building now with each pass of that velvet heat gripping him slick and snug...
"Gonna...fuck...gonna come..." Joshua panted out harshly through gritted teeth as Eric sped his movements - sucking hard on the tip before plunging down to take Josh impossibly deeper still. He couldn't hold back anymore even if he wanted too which was laughable right now lost in this pleasure only he could give...
With a hoarse shout Joshua came undone...spilling hot and thick over that eager tongue as Eric swallowed every drop greedily around him - milking out his orgasm with lips and hand stroking base to tip until Josh collapsed back boneless onto sweat-slick sheets.
He'd barely caught his breath before Eric crawled up the length of his body in a slow drag of skin against skin...and kissed Joshua again, sharing some of that salty essence as he ground their hips together where they were both hard and leaking still...
"I need to be inside you," Eric growled lowly when they broke for air - eyes wild with lust. "Please Josh..."
Joshua shuddered violently at the thought...the promise in his voice raw with desire only stoking the flames higher within him again even as a flicker of nervousness crept up his spine.
"Show me..." he breathed out shakily, splaying thighs wider in invitation to lay bare all that had been hidden from Eric before now. "Want you so bad..."
Eric groaned raggedly against his mouth - kissing sloppy and deep one last time...before reaching for the bedside table drawer with a trembling hand. He fumbled out lube slick fingers as Joshua watched him through hooded eyes, belly fluttering low in anticipation.
