See, this is why anyone following this story is a step ahead of the game, since I'm updating here first.

Anyway, not even going to get into any explanation, if you even are interested about my life/absence yet again then you can go ask on tumblr, but I'm updating here first because I didn't have the time to commit to a regular, full SE chapter yet, and this is more so a way for me to dip my toes back into the writing waters now that Young Justice is back, and I'm settling into post-university life with my first full-time, real job.

Notes for this chapter:

I originally only meant for this to be like a 1k drabble, but it's more than double that now, so maybe just a plumped up drabble then. This is a continuation of the previous chapter, Independence Day, which serves as an update on the AU, let me stress that, AU-relationship (aka not-canon for SE) of Dick and Saph. It takes place a few months after and is from Dick's POV and his take on things this time. Basically it's small-parts fluff and exposition, but mostly just an excuse for me to write some more cheap, porno-smut, so enjoy. If I ever get banned on here, as always just look for me on AO3 since I'll move there if need be.

Warnings: Dom!Dick and Sub!Saph (you'll see), excessive use of the word cock, pet-names, basically just porn...enjoy the porn! I didn't really edit or check anything post-writing so let me know if anything seems wonky while you read and I can edit when I have the time.

Dick POV

"Are you going to be good for me?" I gently asked as I leaned forward, pressing my bare chest down against the naked back of the boy beneath me.

"Y-yes," Saph whimpered, his back arching up and into me as a small, whining moan escaped him as I slid two of my fingers deeper inside of him.

"That's what I like to hear," I told him before leaning down just a sliver more to lightly kiss at his shoulder blade. "Want you to be so, so good."

To say things changed between Saph and I following our little, how do I say, rendezvous, last Independence Day, would be as true as much as it was false. It was false in the sense that, with the rest of the team, new and old alike, we were still outwardly acting and behaving like best friends who were adept at heading the team and staying dedicated to our job of protecting the welfare of the general public. Behind closed doors though, yes, that's where things had certainly changed.

Looking back on it, I'd say a relationship between Saph and I had been in the works since Artemis and Wally had left the team. I mean, following the couple's departure I opened up to Saph about my identity, past, and feelings, I then faced the reality that I was attracted to boys just as much as I was attracted to girls, and most importantly, I had begun to lean on Saph in a specific way I had never dared to lean on anyone else in my life before. With all those factors combined, the conversation and subsequent sex Saph and I had had that night in Happy Harbor had just been more of a spark that lit up all the kindling we had been laying down between us, rather than the start itself. So, while to others we still just seemed like friends drawn closer together because of our work and the departure of some of those around us, in the dead of the night, locked away together in my room, lights dimmed very, very low, and bodies shed of every last inch of clothing, there was no mistaking how truly close and connected we now were.

It was a detail and status we had also decided to keep from the others, well, most of them anyway; M'gann could be too nosy for her own good, especially unintentionally, and well, whatever she knew, Conner always knew soon after as well. Saph and I were fine with those two knowing and felt it was right to be honest with them, not just as the only other remaining members of the original team, but as our friends that we shared the most history with here. In the end it was also helpful to let at least someone know the true nature of our relationship now given how it'd allow the two of them more clarity and understanding to certain reactions or motivations Saph or I might have, that way those two could help push certain issues if we needed their help, or, help keep our judgments and decision making balanced and in line with everyone's best interest in the event that say Saph or I was in danger.

Like I said though, aside from those two, no one else knew about Saph and me, a decision that felt more like mine than Saph's given my history of wanting to protect personal details of my life as to avoid them being used as bargaining chips and collateral against me if they were in the wrong hands. Not even Wally knew, and while I trusted him and would have told him, maybe I was still just enjoying being a little petty by withholding information from him since he walked out on me. Saph understood though, Saph understood seemingly almost everything about me and my thought processes, which made him just all the more endearing, as well as intoxicating, to my heart and mind.

That was because on top of everything else about him, Saph always seemed to know what I wanted or how to guide a situation I was unsure of. Our first night together in Happy Harbor had seen him taking the lead and opening me up, literally and metaphorically, to a new part of my life, but at the same time, he knew that, even with my other desires, at this point in my life, there was a permanent desire to lead, to just be innately dominate and in control, one that was still very much ingrained in my being, and Saph had no problem releasing any and all of his control and letting me call the shots so to speak. Really though, it was more common for me to lead and take from Saph what I needed, than for him to have control and comfort and lead me, if you catch my drift on that. So far it was perfect, perfect because Saph was just oh so much fun to "lead," which was probably because I definitely enjoyed in our reversal of statures. Whereas when we first met Saph was taller and just slightly more broad, over the years I saw he had developed, and finished developing early, whereas now I had him beat in both height and width.

Thus, why our current situation was definitely our more common setup…

"You feel so warm on my fingers baby," I said, using my free hand to tuck under Saph's chin, tilting his head back so I could brush my lips against his own. "So warm and wet. You want it bad, don't you?"

"Yes, want you bad Dick," Saph answered, his arms trembling slightly as he held himself up, his knees continuing to rest and dig into the sheets.

"Good, cause it's almost time," I told him, kissing him again to distract him as I slid a third, slick finger inside of him, "Need to make sure you're nice and stretched for my cock first though."

"Want it, want your cock," Saph whined as my finger finished joining the other two inside of him, "Want you to fuck me with your thick cock."

My chest rumbled, pleased with the ego stroking from Saph. I could tell he was a little far gone by now, having come to recognize how his words would be more simplistic and explicit, and tend to parrot my own once he was falling into the haze of lust I helped drive him in to.

"You know you're not ready yet," I teased as I started to work Saph's hole open further with my fingers before leaning forward to try and peer at his face, "You know how big I am, don't wanna hurt my baby when he's being so good for me."

A small, delighted smile spread across Saph's face as his eyes shut in pleasure, "Yes, I'll be good, I'll be good for you Dick, so you can fill me up."

"Mmmm good," I moaned as I continued thrusting my fingers inside of him, "Can't wait to feel you."

I continued to work my fingers in and out of Saph while I used my other hand to now grip his neck, keeping him in place while I nipped and kissed my way down the expanse of flesh. While I continued to mark Saph's neck the only other sounds in the dimmed bedroom were his light, angelic whimpers and moans, and the slick sounds of him opening up on my fingers. Saph's cock remained hard and untouched during the prep, hanging between his slender, toned legs, dripping precum down onto the sheets, while my own stood erect and throbbing, pushing against the supple and plump skin of Saph's rear.

"I'm ready, I want it now," Saph said after another minute of blissful torture, sounding the most confident and sure of himself he had since we had first come to bed that night.

"Alright baby," I said, withdrawing my fingers from his opening extra slow to tease him one last time before giving him what he had oh so patiently waited for. I kissed the back of Saph's head before reaching for the forgotten bottle of lube near the edge of the bed. I popped the cap and squeezed the last of it out directly onto my throbbing cock, shivering and moaning slightly at the feeling. I spread the substance then maneuvered back over behind Saph.

"Ready?" I asked, just to make certain that Saph was sure of himself.

"Yes," Saph breathed, turning his head back to look at me over his shoulder, "Please Dick, please fuck me."

I leaned down to kiss the flesh over his tailbone before using one hand to spread his ass open, and the other to start guiding my cock to his hole. I let the head press and rest against Saph's opening, always taking pleasure in letting him feel for one last second what was about to come, before I slowly started pushing into him.

The reaction was immediate as Saph moaned and let his head tip backwards, his body being spread open even further now by me, and lord, it was always so thrilling to watch; to watch perfect, prim and proper, headstrong Saph, be reduced to a moaning mess as his plump, slick ass was stuffed with cock, my cock, like a bitch in heat.

I was about halfway in, still slowing inching inside to the heavenly sound of Saph's moans, before I gripped him tightly by the hips and hurriedly slid the rest of the way home. Saph's surprised and startled whimper didn't even cease before I was sliding out, and then pushing right back in. The wrecked noises leaving my partner's mouth, the heat of his body around my cock, and the rush of knowing I was making someone so strong and so important to my life submit to me, was just as thrilling and delightful as it was the first time, the sensations and pleasure from it never having dulled, not even once yet.

"Do you like it baby," I huffed out, "Like feeling me inside you?"

"Yes Dick," Saph cried, falling forward onto the bed, body now only held up by his knees, "Love being filled, love being yours."

"Mmmmm," I moaned, pulling out again and starting to set my pace.

Words escaped Saph entirely after that as I moved my grip from his hips to the cheeks of his ass, kneading at the flesh with perverted glee as I pulled his body on and off my cock repeatedly, my head thrown back in ecstasy as his moans continued to escape his mouth and his hole continued to clench around me.

I didn't know how long this continued, Saph continuing to be fucked into the bed by my thrusts while I drowned myself in the pleasure of my cock sliding in and out of his body, but I could tell he was starting to grow close as his whines grew more uncaring and unhinged, the boy sounding more and more pornographic by the second.

"You close baby?" I asked with a grin, raising one hand and bringing it down to slap and spank at the bouncing flesh of his ass as I continued to bury myself inside, "Your cock going to cum for me?"

"Yes Dick," Saph wailed, "So close, wanna cum!"

At his admission I pulled out from him and used my strength to flip him over onto his back. I spread his legs apart and slid myself back inside and delighted in the look of almost pained-bliss that spread on his face as I now reached so deep that every inch of my cock was wrapped up by him. I leaned down and licked my way into his mouth, kissing him deep while at the same time one of my hands wrapped around Saph's sensitive, wet cock.

"Do it baby, cum for me," I commanded as I put one last bit of gusto into my thrusts.

"Dick, Dick, Dick," he chanted for me, my name sounding so good as it spilled from his lips.

It only took a few more thrusts and jerks of my hand before I felt his cock throb and begin to shoot spurts of white onto his chest.

I groaned in pleasure and leaned back up and away as Saph began clenching so tight on my cock. I reclaimed his hips once again in my tight grip then thrust again and again into his quivering hole before I found my own release, my eyes sealing shut as I let out a loud cry, my cock throbbing and spurting my cum inside of Saph's body. I couldn't move as I felt myself continue to shake and tremble, my cock continuing to release inside of my partner, his warm wet body just too enticing and paralyzing in that moment of passion and bliss.

When I finally managed to come down from my high I pulled out of Saph and collapsed down onto the bed next to him. I spent a minute catching my breath before I reached an arm over and around Saph and pulled his body flush next to mine. I cracked one eye open to find Saph's own still closed as he worked on regaining his own breath. I leaned forward and kissed his cheek while running a hand through his feather-soft hair before pushing myself up and off the bed.

I allowed myself just a few more moments of perverted admiration and satisfaction as I pushed Saph's legs open and stared at my release leaking from his hole before I then moved to the bathroom and cleaned myself off. I returned a minute later with a damp towel and set to work on cleaning Saph, pleased moans quietly leaving his mouth as I dragged the cloth over his skin and cleansed him of our collective sin.

I threw the towel in the sink before climbing back onto the bed, moving towards the bounty of pillows at the head. Once I was situated I leaned forward and pulled Saph's lithe and pliant body up and to my own, settling his head on my chest as we both began to drift off. My now flaccid cock gave a new twitch of interest at feeling our naked bodies pressed back together again in such a soft, intimate embrace and I pondered the possibility of another round where I made Saph ride me...but decided that could wait till the morning, could wait till the boy had gotten some rest and was ready to be fucked all over again.
