Friday, October 11 - At sea aboardOcean Wanderer
Rob awoke with light streaming across his eyes from the partially opened drapes. He rolled over to find himself staring at the back of Ben’s head. Reaching around, he pulled Ben into a hug, running his fingers through the hair on his chest.
“Good morning,” Ben moaned sleepily.
“I’m sorry. Did I wake you?” Rob kissed Ben’s shoulder and reveled in his familiar scent.
“I don’t think you’re sorry at all.” He lifted Rob’s hand from his chest and kissed it lightly. “So, what do you want to do today?”
“Just hang out with you, if that’s okay. If Sam wasn’t boarding the ship tomorrow, I think I’d just leave with you.”
Ben twisted around until he was facing Rob. “Hey, it’s gonna be okay. I’ve got so much to do for the next week or so and you’ll be home before you know it. And we can video chat and text while you and Sam are on the ship.
“Once you get home, we’ll look at our schedules and figure out when we can get together again. And if things work out with one of the plays I’ve been approached about, I may end up in New York really soon.”
“Yeah, you’re right. I’m just not happy about saying goodbye tomorrow. I’ve gotten used to having you around and I like it. A lot.” Rob said with a heavy sigh.
“It’s not goodbye, it’s just so long for a little while. We'll make this work. I promise.”
“I believe you. Now, what about breakfast?”

The day passed quietly. They walked around a bit as Ben tried to commit to memory all the places on the ship they had spent time together. He took a few photos of just Rob as well as a couple of selfies of them together. He got an especially nice one of Rob near the waterfall in Seaside Cove and set that as his phone’s wallpaper.
“Okay, now I need one of you.”
Rob pulled out his phone and took several photos of Ben. Ben stuck his tongue out for a goofy one, making Rob giggle, then he managed to take one where Ben wasn’t looking directly at the camera. He was smiling and looked thoughtful, like he was daydreaming. Rob chose that one for his wallpaper. Showing his phone to Ben, he said, “I think you look especially handsome in this one.”

They’d enjoyed a nice dinner of grilled steak, shrimp and fried rice in the Teppanyaki dining room at Kaiyo but skipped dessert and after-dinner drinks. No sooner had they entered Rob’s suite, and Ben was all over him. They kissed passionately, their tongues battling for control. Ben unbuttoned Rob’s shirt, circling his nipples with his thumbs.
Rob moaned, reaching for Ben’s belt buckle. Undoing it and pulling down the zipper on his trousers, he reached in and stroked Ben’s cock through his underwear. He could feel the wet spot where Ben was already leaking. They moved into the bedroom and continued stripping until they were both naked and fully aroused.
“You are so beautiful,” Ben said, lowering Rob onto the bed and climbing on top of him.
“Please Ben, I want you tonight,” Rob whispered.
“Are you sure? I don’t want to rush things.”
“I want this," Rob whispered. "So much.”
Ben walked into the bathroom and returned with a condom and small bottle of lube that he’d found earlier in his toiletry kit. He set them on the nightstand then looked at Rob and gently said, “Let me get you ready.”
Kissing him deeply, Ben moved his way down Rob’s body with slow kisses, licking and nipping at his nipples, first one, then the other. He dipped his tongue into Rob’s navel, then buried his nose in the space between Rob’s thigh and balls, inhaling his scent.
Kissing the head of his cock tenderly, he opened his mouth and sucked him down, at the same time twisting each nipple with his thumb and forefinger. Ben moaned around the hard cock in his mouth and Rob whimpered.
“Please, Ben,” he begged.
Ben moved off Rob’s cock and moved lower, sucking each ball into his mouth. Then lower still. He raised Rob’s legs, kissing behind his balls and licking at his hole. He plunged his tongue deep, teasing and nibbling the rim, as Rob squirmed.
“Ungh, mmmm, ahhh…” Rob moaned incoherently.
Ben reached for the lube and squirted a bit on his fingers, then probed Rob’s hole slowly and steadily.
“More, please,” Rob begged, and Ben obliged with a second finger.
