Refugee

Part 7
Garak looked up when the door to his quarters opened and watched as his exhausted mate came trudging through the door. The tired man headed directly for the couch and sat down wearily, resting his head on the back on the couch.
Garak put down the computer padd holding the novel that he had been reading and moved to join Julian where he sat on the couch. "Hard day?" he enquired. He urged Julian to lie down with his head in his lap, stroking his mate's hair when Julian complied.
"You have forever to keep doing that," Julian said with a sigh. He enjoyed it when Garak pampered him and was definitely in the mood for some coddling tonight. "To answer your question, yes, it was very busy today. You heard about the Hebitian's ship that docked?"
Garak continued to run his fingers through Julian shiny black hair. He loved the feeling of the silky hair and was pleased that Julian would let him pet him like this. �Yes I did. I also heard that it was quite damaged. Were there a lot of injuries"
"Mm Hmmm," he replied. "I'm glad that Mirell was there to help. There were quite a few severe casualties," he glanced up at Elim. "Larin's parents were on board. They helped out in sickbay by triaging the patients before I arrived. It saved us a lot of time actually."
They sat in silence for a moment, just enjoying each others company.
Garak's thought wandered a bit as he thought over his new life on the station. He was eternally gratefully that he had finally won the young doctor as a mate. From the first moment he saw him he had been entranced. At first he was held just by his shear physical beauty, but when he had initiated a relationship he had grown to know the man's mind as well. Julian was a very intelligent man, true he was naive at first but he had grown more astute as time passed.
Garak was fascinated with him and had wished that their relationship could continue onto the next level. Not knowing how he would be received he hesitated in courting the young man. It was Julian who had made the first move, after despairing that Garak would never expose his true feelings.
During one of their lunches at the replimat the conversations had turned to Julian's many female dates. Garak had been teasing him about the fact that Julian seemed unlikely to ever settle down with one person.
Julian had looked at him with calm eyes and announced that he had already met the person who he would spend the rest of his life with.
Garak had felt an intense pain in his chest at the young doctor's word. A feeling of loneliness swept over him as he wondered who Julian had picked to be his life-partner.
He stared at the man he loved so deeply, memorizing his features. He knew that if Julian belonged to someone else he would have to leave the station. The pain would be to great to bear to even consider staying.
The tailor watched Julian's mouth move, not really hearing what he was saying. He was thrown out of his somber musing when the doctor leaned forward and touched his arm.
"Garak," Julian repeated. "Did you hear what I said?"
Garak summoned a fake smile, "No, I'm sorry my dear doctor. What did you say?" All he wanted to do was leave and drink the bottle of kanaar in his quarters.
Julian drew a steadying breath. "I said, I am just waiting for a stubborn Cardassian to make up his mind whether he wants me or not."
Garak's mind had trouble processing Julian's statement. *Did he just say?? Are there any other Cardassians he knows? He can't mean.....*
His thoughts were interrupted as Julian rolled his eyes. "Ahh hell," he said and leaned forward. He slipped a hand behind Elim's head and drew him closer for a first kiss.
Time stopped for both of them as the kiss deepened. At first Garak passively accepted the kiss, then his instincts kicked in. Taking control he brushed his tongue across Julian's lip, demanding entry.
The doctor's soft lips open and Garak's tongue slipped inside. Tasting the man he groaned deep in his chest. All he wanted to do was drag the young man back to his quarters and fuck, no make love to him until they both couldn't walk.
Julian's soft moan inflamed him even further and he reached out and grabbed him by the upper arms and pulled him closer.
They were lost in the kiss until a throat being cleared and the complete silence in the repilmat roused them.
Turning together they looked at the stern chief of security standing by his table with his arms crossed. Behind him they could see the stunned witnessed looking on.
"Gentlemen, may I suggest you take this elsewhere?" Odo said sarcastically.
Julian flushed a deep red and licked his lips, trying to think of something to say.
Garak flashed a feral grin at the constable. "Why Odo, what a wonderful idea." He stood up, dragging the doctor with him. "If you would excuse us," he said with a slight bow.
Odo uncrossed his arms, snorted, then turned to walk away.
Tugging the doctor after him, Garak headed for the turbolift. He turned to the slightly dazed young man who was beginning to smile a goofy grin. "Can you take the afternoon of and who's quarters are closer, yours or mine."
Julian could hardly think with all the excitement rising in him. "Uh, mine I think." He told the computer what level to take them to and contacted sickbay, telling them he was taking the afternoon off, all the while looking at Garak with a seductive smile.
Garak looked back and growled low in his throat. With a pounce he pinned the doctor to the wall of the turbolift and claimed his lips once again.
They kissed savagely until the lift doors opened. Grabbing him once again, Garak led Julian down the hall to his quarters.
Once in the room they turned to each other.
Holding out both hands they slowly linked their fingers together. Stepping closer to one another they looked into each others face.
"You know I love you," Garak said softly, gazing at the man he had always desired.
"I do now," Julian replied huskily. He brought their hands to the side and swayed even closer to Garak.
Smiling gently at the doctor Garak loosened their grip and embraced him around the waist. Julian's arms stole around his neck as their lips met again.
This was a kiss of devotion, of commitment. They both knew that this was meant to last and that they would be together for all time.
Guiding Garak gently to the bed they both slowly sank down to lay side by side. Looking into each others eyes they saw the love and desire for each other.
As they made love for the first time their souls were set free. With gentle caresses and whispered words of love they learned each others bodies.
Clothes were shoved of their bodies in the need to get closer. When skin contacted skin they both sighed in relief. This is what they had both been looking for their whole lives. It was if two souls were finally made one. The rightness of their actions overwhelmed them and reassured them.
Moving on top of the doctor Garak kissed him deeply. Tongues slowly wrapped around each other as they explored each other. Reaching up Garak wound his fingers through his love's shiny black hair. Raising his head he looked down at the gorgeous man, a question in his eyes.
"Have you ever?" he started to say.
"Only once,"Julian replied earnestly. "A long time ago. You?"
"Yes, a very long time ago. Do you have any.." he was stopped by Julian's finger on his lip.
Never braking eye contact Julian reached over to his night table, opened a draw and pulled out a little bottle. He pressed the massage oil into Garak's hand and looked at him imploringly.
"I need you. I want you," he said fervently. "I need this so much Elim."
Hearing his mates pleas Garak growled in his throat again. Latching onto Julian's neck he bit down lightly, marking his mate as his own. "Yes Julian. I want you...I need you too."
Preparing his mate for his entry, Garak watched as Julian writhed sensually on the bed, enjoying the sensations Garak was bringing out in him. He ached for the completion of their love and pushed back on the slick fingers that were preparing him for penetration signaling his readiness.
Coating his erection heavily with oil Garak threw the bottle down and raised Julian's hips onto his thighs. Pausing for a moment at the entrance to Julian's body he lowered his head for another kiss.
"Elim, please...." Julian moaned lightly. He wrapped his legs around Garak's back and drew him forward.
Not waiting anymore Garak pushed forward and in one long slow stroke entered his lover.
The room seemed to spin for them at their ultimate connection. They were one and their very beings seemed to be connecting.
Slowly they started to move together in a primitive rhythm. Their bodies moving in perfect synch. Eyes still locked on each other as they strove to get even closer to one another.
Julian's arms wrapped around Garak, clutching him tighter. He moaned his pleasure, urging his lover to speed up with his body.
Garak's heart soared as he took his mate. His every hope and dream were coming true in this moment. His body pounded into the younger man striving to possess every iota of him.
As Julian pushed his hips up to meet his thrusts their lips met once again. Their tongues dueled fiercely with each other.
Julian groaned into Garak's mouth and started to orgasm. His body shook at his release and tears of joy started to trail down his face.
Hearing Julian's release and seeing the evidence of happiness on his face he yelled his love's name and erupted inside him.
Falling to the side Garak rolled off of his mate. Both men were stunned silent by their passion and laid basking in the aftermath.
Garak reached for Julian and pulled him closer. The younger man snuggled up to him, quietly enjoying the post-coital lassitude.
When his breath had returned he glanced up at Garak.
"Wow," was all he could say.
Garak laughed tiredly and hugged the young man tighter. "So eloquent doctor."
"It's all I can think off right now," Julian said returning his grin.
They chuckled for a moment then quieted again.
"So, what know?" Julian asked after a couple of moments.
Sitting up in the bed Garak drew the younger man up with him. "What do you want to happen?"
Julian traced the scales running down Garak's side. "What I would like is for us to continue." He turned and straddled Garak's thighs.
Garak hugged him tightly and kissed his forehead. "That's what I want as well," he said gruffly. He rested his cheek on top of Julian's silky hair and thought of his extraordinary luck in landing this wonderful man.
"What do you want to tell your friends?" he questioned softly.
Julian kissed his chest and stroked his side, reassuringly this time. "I won't hide you Elim," he said firmly. He raised his head and looked his lover in the eye. "If they can't accept us that's their problem."
"What about you career?"
Julian poked Garak in the chest. "What about it? There is nothing anyone can do if I have a relationship with you. I have a right to a private life." He snuggled up against Garak's chest again content that he could handle any objection to their relationship.
Garak embraced him again wishing solemnly that this relationship would last.
A month later they were married.
Garak's thought were brought back to the present when he felt his mate's speculative gaze on him.
"What are you thinking of?" Julian asked curiously.
"Oh, I'm just thinking of beginnings," Garak replied cryptically. He continued to stoke Julian's hair. "Have I told you that I love you today?"
"Yes you have, but you can tell me again if you like," he said happily.
Julian was amazed at the stability that he had found with his husband. It was worth all the hardships that he had to deal with over their relationship. He had finally found a love so profound and he was going to be damned if he didn't fight tooth and nail for acceptance from his friends.
"Well, if I've already told you once that should be sufficient. After all, I wouldn't want to be though of as repetitive."
Julian twisted in his embrace, reaching up to grab a fist full of the front of Garak's tunic. "Be repetitive," he ordered playfully.
Well, if you insist. I love you Julian." He was becoming aroused at his mate's show of aggression.
Julian could see the desire growing in he husband's eyes. He pulled Garak forward for a kiss, their mouths opening for each other. *Oh yeah, this is definitely the cure for a hard day!*
As Garak sensed his love's willingness to make love and his thoughts wandered briefly to his earlier reminiscence. *Actually in this case being repetitive is a good thing.*
They rose off the couch together and headed into their bedroom. Laying down together they ran their hands over each other, reacquainting themselves with each other.
Once again their love for each other swelled as they engaged in the act that bound them together, the two of them becoming one once more.
