Jayce almost protests him lying on top, since it'll just get him dirty too, but obviously realizes that is silly as Viktor already knows and doesn't care. He likes having him on top, running his hand along Viktor's back and enjoying the closeness. He is at his most content in the aftermath when they get to bask in feeling good and being together.
"Um." He's a little delirious so he has to think about it. "I mean, I love sex, I'm just more of a giver, you know? There hasn't been a whole lot of talking outside of in the heat of things." Which might explain why Jayce talks during sex, and that he enjoys it because it's like a consistent reassurance to him that they're having a good time. Sex is one of the few places that Jayce is pretty confident, because he can read people emotionally and physically while they're together, he can get confirmation that it's good without having to second guess. It feels natural. As opposed to all the other times he gets in his head.
"You're the only real relationship I've had, V. I've dated people and I've been with people, and generally they know what they want, and I give it to them, and that's great." Jayce didn't really think about it outside of satisfaction he was sharing. He is a little flustered now, unsure of this is normal now. "I definitely can't ... picture asking anyone else to fuck me or come on me." He was a little shy even asking Viktor!
Viktor makes a little hm noise and rolls off of Jayce, settling against his side in the crook of his arm. He reaches across Jayce’s chest to grasp at his hand, lacing their fingers together, running his thumb over rough knuckles.
Perhaps the question is a little awkward, and maybe he feels a little badly for putting Jayce in this position, but he finds it valuable to talk about regardless. Yes, Viktor knows very well that Jayce is a people-pleaser, and that carries over to their bedroom activities. Still, the sheepishness with which he asked for something that he wanted struck Viktor, a bit. He never wants Jayce to feel like he can’t—or shouldn’t—ask for something. Viktor wants to give him everything.
“I’ll consider that a compliment.” Even if a roundabout one. Viktor knows that Jayce has always been the most comfortable with him, though his thoughts drift towards the hypothetical timeline of home—if his few nights with Mel would have turned into a real relationship, given the chance. Given the political juggernaut that such a pairing would be, and Viktor’s own preoccupations at the time, he imagines that’s how things might have gone. Another reminder that this relationship—the one Jayce considers real—exists because of their displacement here. Another reminder to Viktor that this is something to cherish.
“Always ask me for what you want. Even if you’re embarrassed.”
Jayce immediately puts his arm around Viktor when he moves to the side so he can keep him close, letting him take his hand. There are so many things he loves about being with Viktor, but the fact they can be hot and heavy and then curl happily into this intimacy is everything to him. He feels so at home and safe with him, their relationship naturally adding that extra layer to it, enough for him to ask for anything at all.
"It is a compliment. You're far beyond what I was able to dream up."
Viktor knows that he's fantasized a lot about him and about them, but Jayce still couldn't picture something as fully rewarding and satisfying as this. Because fantasy is only that and he'd never had a relationship that was this fulfilling to imagine. So everything he hoped for with their relationship is true and then all these extras he couldn't imagine on top of it. He meant it when he said he loved him more with every day.
Mel is not entirely far from his mind because this talk sort of requires him to consider exes or people who might have become one. It's possible they could have gotten there. It would take longer for that level of trust that he has already built with Viktor, but it wasn't out of the question. He didn't know if they were going to actually go for a relationship, it hadn't been talked about. Even then he only could think about saving Viktor and prioritizing their work over anything personal.
Jayce smiles at him and pulls his hand up to kiss the knuckles before setting it back down. "I'm the one loudly begging, believe me, you're giving me what I want." Even if he's embarrassed to ask, he still does it. "If anything, you could be telling me more what you like."
"Yes, I know. I've done nothing but surpass expectations."
He's joking, but he sounds pleased about that. Glad that this is everything Jayce wanted and more. Viktor snuggles in closer, wanting to have as little space between them as possible, enjoying the feeling of Jayce's arm slung around his thin shoulders. It's almost enough for him to forget what brought them to this in the first place. The consult he just came from already seems so far away.
Viktor is vaguely aware that they can't spend all day in a hotel room, but with their hands laced together like this and their bodies so close, he doesn't want to move.
"You know enough." He accompanies that sentiment with a smirk. "If you haven't figured out most of it by now, I'm going to start to question your intelligence."
Jayce laughs, also joking, since he's the one constantly complimenting. Viktor is curled up so close to him like he can't get close enough and Jayce is so into it, squeezing his arm around him.
"I love that you're a snuggler."
He had been surprised by how comfortable Viktor was with affection once they opened up this door, but it's one of the reasons he's surpassed expectations. In his defense, he's always been careful about how much he touches Viktor because he assumed his friend wouldn't want it. If he knew he would cuddle this much ... well, they probably would've ended up here sooner. It's nice to be in a relationship where the other person is as touchy-feely as he is when it comes to being together.
"We've been having sex for two months, I haven't figured out all of it."
Jayce touches the come on him to make certain it's dry enough for him to be able to turn onto his side without it sliding off him. He wants to keep it on him, but it's so he can tug Viktor right into his body, as close as can be. Jayce leans down to kiss him deeply, having missed out on his lips this round.
"You would ask me if you wanted something though?" he asks a little breathlessly when they part. It's only fair since he's telling Jayce the same.
It has nothing to do with the fact that until recently, Viktor has been fairly touch-starved, and relishes any contact between them. None at all. To tell Jayce as much would feed his ego unnecessarily, but he knows that Jayce didn't expect this from him, so he likes to indulge. Let him know just how comfortable he is, with this level of physical intimacy, even when they're done having sex.
He'll admit that it hasn't been that long--that there's plenty more about each other to discover, which still excites him. Viktor leans into the kiss and lets it linger, pressed close against Jayce.
"I would, yes." Viktor can be fairly demanding, if he puts his mind to it. "I might want you to boss me around, sometime."
"Take as much of my heat as you want, sweetheart."
Jayce chuckles and kisses him again. He wouldn't go so far as to guess touch-starved, but in a way Jayce has been himself. He's craved this type of intimacy possibly his whole life, despite his lack of specific experience. And Viktor is the person he touched the most before this, so to get fed all of it daily means he's greedy. He used to think he would have been perfectly happy if Viktor would let him kiss him sometimes and hug him outside of bed. He is so, so, so spoiled.
"You've said that before, just so I'm clear, you mean demanding rather than begging?" It is a distinct difference and he gets that. Because he would say he is pretty bossy in terms of begging Viktor to give him more, do what he needs, but that's different from telling him to do it. Jayce needs to clarify though, this isn't exactly his instinct.
Viktor doesn't answer, seemingly a little embarrassed by being found out, groaning and burying his face in Jayce's chest. He does not, however, manage to escape the next kiss, and scrunches up his face against it, pretending to be disgruntled. By now, he knows that Jayce sees right through how performative he can be, but part of him still has not chosen to accept it.
"I mean that I want you to be in charge, sometime." Sure, Jayce begs and asks for things but he defers to Viktor for most if not all of it. Viktor knows that's a function of his people-pleasing personality, but he's very curious to see what Jayce might do, if given complete control. "Do you think you'd like that?"
Jayce just laughs quietly since he did catch Viktor out, and he's being adorable and grumpy about it. He's not sure he gets why Viktor likes to act unaffected by it, probably because he's prideful, but he can't deny he finds it pretty charming when he flusters. And Jayce likes seducing him when he's being performative so he has to give in. It ends up in the same place no matter what, the two of them kissing and in the glowing aftermath of sex.
"I have no doubt that I would," Jayce grins, running his hand along Viktor's back. "I think you deserve to be bossed around." He lightly slaps Viktor's ass with that, being playful. It's difficult not to be bright and full of endorphins at the moment. He squeezes it after that. "It might be a learning curve, but I think I can manage." His instinct will still be to defer to Viktor, so he'll just have to keep countering that as they go, but he's confident in them both. And in the fact they burn up the sheets every time they're together.
"I've never wanted anyone like this. It's probably for the best. It would've been distracting for our work." Meaning if he ever did want someone this much that wasn't Viktor, it would've gotten in the way. The two of them have managed to find that sweet spot between making sure their work is being done and having private moments together. But that would've been harder to figure out in the past.
As much as it pained them both, a relationship while they were working on Hextech wouldn't have been a possibility. There was simply too much at risk. All the more reason why they need to cherish it now. Viktor smirks a little at the assertion that Jayce will be able to do as he requests--eventually. Not now, of course. Though being in bed together is nice, there's still a great deal to do and explore, while they have the opportunity.
"But as nice as this is, Jayce, I don't think we should spend all of our time here in bed."
He'll try and take the edge off that request by craning upward for another kiss--one last one before he sits up and slides off the mattress.
Jayce returns the kiss with a pout but he does agree, sitting up. Although it's very obvious to him once he does that he's got dried come all over him and he does have to worry about his hair, less of a joke now that he has to go anywhere. He flirtatiously snags Viktor around the waist and pulls him back against his chest, kissing his neck.
"You've completely dirtied me up, the least you can do is help clean me."
He bites his neck playfully but then releases him, sliding past Viktor to get up himself. He really is an absolute mess at the moment, naked and marked, but Jayce loves that. He feels fantastic. All he wants to do is kiss Viktor, so that means of course that he has to get his shit together.
"Okay, no, if you go with me, I'm going to distract us again." He kisses the top of Viktor's hair instead, cupping his cheek. "Tell me you love me." Jayce rarely asks for that, but he is feeling loose and good.
Viktor needs to clean up, too, and despite Jayce's insistence that if they do it together, they'll get distracted, but he thinks he can keep them on task. For now, he sits on the edge of the bed, allowing Jayce use of the bathroom first, though of course they're further delayed by one last kiss. Then another. Jayce almost gets him with that hand around his waist, but he pushes a hand against his chest to remind him that they have places to be.
Still, they can't seem to break contact. Viktor yelps at the unexpected bite but then leans into the hand against his face in spite of himself. Ordinarily, he might reject such a request outright--Viktor is extremely purposeful with those words, but Jayce is so earnest and looks so soft that he can't resist, this time.
"I love you." Viktor does his best to sound sincere as possible, leaning in to kiss Jayce again. "Try to remember, this time."
Aka it's in his hair and he needs to wash it or he'll obsess over it. The one thing Jayce will always allow himself some vanity about is his hair. He is definitely going to walk out of this inn room glowing from being stuffed full of love and compliments. It'll wear off in a few hours but for now he is just so happy.
Jayce always feels a surge of joy when he hears those words, even if he asked for them, and he returns the kiss sweet and lingering. "Thank you." He kisses Viktor's nose. "I will remember." It's not that he forgets, exactly, but it's complicated.
"You washcloth, me shower." That's what he means by them not doing it together, it will only go poorly and they have things to explore! "I'll be quick." He will be too, he just needs to wash his stupid hair.
Viktor isn't going to stop him, even if the prospect of joining him is very tempting. He'll resist, for now, if only because he really does want to get back out to the marketplace. Since it's been decided that Jayce actually needs a shower, Viktor gives him a little shove towards the bathroom. Be quick about it, indeed.
"You do realize, however, that I'll need to come with you regardless."
That's where the water and towels are! He will, however, promise not to follow Jayce into the shower.
"I do, just be on your best behavior." Jayce says this very seriously but his eyes are amused because they are both aware that he is almost always the problem there. He gets frisky. He laughs at the shove and resists the urge to kiss Viktor again since there's always the risk he'll keep going.
They do need to actually do other things. And there's always tonight.
