[Love at First Sight] Joshua Graham X Female Courier Oneshot

Our Tranquility

You gave him an expectant look as you sat snugly on his lap. "Does... this hurt? Are you comfortable with this?" you asked him.

"Yes, I am quite comfortable with this. Just try not to accidentally fall on top of me," he said as he chuckled lightly.

Carefully undoing the bandages covering his mouth, you gazed at him with unwavering lust before you slowly put your lips against his. You were waiting for this moment for so long - you weren't going to waste this opportunity.

You had no sexual experience prior to this but you were an improvising wizard of sorts - you watched plenty of adult movies before, so you just naturally acted out what you wanted and went with the flow.

He noticed your kisses were sloppy and inexperienced so he decided to take control of the situation by delving his tongue into your mouth.

A surprised welp was ripped from your throat as he grabbed your head and pulled it slightly towards him, so that you had no room to breathe for a few seconds. He french kissed you deeply, any sound that came from your throat was muffled by his tongue.

Once your lips parted, you felt something warm growing underneath you as you panted in want.

You moaned in heat as you blushed, feeling like putty in his arms.

You couldn't believe how he could turn you on so much from just that action alone.

"My sweet beloved... I am beyond blessed to see you in this state," he paused before continuing, a dark look emerging on his face.

"I can't seem to understand. Understand what I did to deserve someone as divine as you," he uttered in a melancholy tone as he stared into your eyes, cupping your cheek.

You were truly shocked to hear such praise along with his sudden self-loathing. You gave him a kiss on his rough, scarred lips; a kiss as gentle as a feather.

"I love you. I chose you because I love you, and I see you are worthy of that love. I don't want this to just be all about me you know... this is also for you," you looked at him with unyielding resolve in your eyes.

His eyes darted away from your face, perhaps in shame. His blue, sharp eyes revealed he was hiding something deeply sealed away.

"I am not a good man," Joshua paused momentarily, "besides... I am almost 3 times your age. A damaged old man. Both mentally and physically. There are plenty of other men your age who could offer more than I ever could," he voiced with slight dejection.

You felt a sadness emerge inside seeing just how broken he was. All the pain he went through and yet here he was now, still suffering. You grabbed his hand and held it tightly.

"I think it was love at first sight when I came to Zion on that expedition. Something about you attracted me, like a moth to a bright light. There are many admirable qualities about you: your wisdom, solicitude and aptitude. You always listened to my silly stories and talked to me about topics nobody else would."

The corners of your mouth turned upwards. You couldn't help but smile, thinking about Joshua and the memories you made with him.

"You helped me feel less alone in this dark, desolate world; like a shining beacon of hope. You're more than I coulda ever asked for. I don't care about your past. I see only good in you now and I can tell you try your damned hardest to repent. You truly captured my heart and I only have eyes for you, Joshua," you said wholeheartedly.

He gazed at you and thought deeply for a moment. Eventually he sighed. There was a small but sweet smile on his face; it was quite a rarity seeing an expression like that on his face and by God... was it so beautiful.
