Thanks so much to all those who asked me for more! I wouldn't be posting again nearly this soon without you guys.



Contrary to popular belief, you really don't dream about sex that much. Not even when you're eighteen and supposedly at the be-all and end-all state of horniness. Most dreams are fleeting, surreal, insubstantial dreams, and often ridiculous, though sometimes informative.

He knew all this, had learned it in one of his many classes and through his own meditations on the subject. Therefore, it was a surprise, if a pleasant one, to find himself spending an entire night dreaming of nothing but lovemaking.

It started with the hands.

They were big hands, and very strong, and somehow familiar, even if he couldn't place them immediately. Perhaps if he had examined more closely he could have done so, but he wasn't all that interested, not when large callous fingers were tenderly stroking along his throat, then moving to pinch at his nipples, slide over his stomach, rub his inner thighs. The clarity of his vision astonished him as he vaguely remembered past sexual dreams; they had been intensely pleasurable, but blurry and lacking in real detail--due, he suspected, to his lack of experience. But this. This felt as real as any precognition. Warm, rough palms smoothing again and again over the muscles of his abdomen as if they couldn't stop, then finally sliding around him to cup his ass in a perfect fit of hand-to-cheek. Being eighteen and eager, he was already erect and began to lift his hips in supplication. The hands did not hesitate, but went obediently to his penis, one rolling the balls between the fingers, the other sliding the foreskin back and forth.

Good, so very good! These hands were certainly more competent than his own, he felt like his entire groin was on fire. He started thrusting his hips up impatiently to meet the movements of the hands and was not stopped. This was right. This was absolutely perfect.

Then he felt the mouth.

The tongue arrived first, tracing the shell of his ear, down to the earlobe and then the side of his neck. He heard himself give a dream-whimper and twisted his head around, seeking more contact, finally bumping against the lips.

Which is when he felt the beard, and he knew who his lover was.

It could only have been one person, and as he expected (this was a dream, after all), his Master's face suddenly appeared before him, proud and noble, but oddly flushed. Normally placid blue eyes glittered with fever. Slowly the rest of the body was filled in, lean and strong and long and hard, and soon they were lying completely twined together. He could feel everything now, inches upon inches of flesh pressed together.

Well. This was a new development. By this time he couldn't think very much, but spared one small part of his brain to wonder why he was choosing to dream of his Master. True, the man was very attractive, and he loved and trusted him more than anyone else, alive or dead. He simply hadn't realized that his feelings had taken a step in this direction. This, he reflected dimly as he blindly turned his face, seeking more kisses and touches, would merit meditation, but not now, by all the gods that ever were, not now.

Then his subconscious truly surprised him. His Master leaned down and kissed him so passionately that he lost track of anything else that had ever happened to him-then pulled away perhaps a millimeter from his mouth and said in a broken voice, "I'm sorry, love, I'm so sorry. Please forgive...I just, I couldn't. I can't...please don't..."

Can't what, don't what? He echoed what came to his mind first and wailed, "Don't stop!" His hips began to piston more rapidly within the warm grip, desperate to gain release before his Master changed his mind for some reason. "Don't stop, please!"

"I love you," the older man whispered, and bent to kiss him all over his face, slowing his strokes just a little until his lover sobbed in frustration. "I love you. I love you. Never doubt I love you. I'm only doing this because I love you, so much I can't stand it, you're all I care about. Only you. I love you!"

With that last passionate declaration, the hand suddenly speeded up, so suddenly that he found himself coming immediately, as intensely as if he'd been on the edge of orgasm for hours. He could do nothing but howl in joy.

He was going to wake up tomorrow in cum-splattered sheets, but that didn't matter now. His dream-eyes closed, yet still able to see, he reached out to touch his Master's face, only to be blocked by some shield he couldn't understand. "No," the other man said softly, "I...no. This is for you, sweet, I do this for you."

He didn't have to make it sound like such a chore, the younger man thought a bit crankily, and then stopped thinking altogether as his penis and nipples were stroked and sucked again, until he was being caressed to madness once more.

It went on like this all night. As a Jedi, he could monitor his sleep cycles; he would spin slowly out of dreams, the details growing more faint until they were gone, progress into the deep sleep that has no dreams, and surface almost to wakefulness until the dream state took him again. Dream delved into dream delved into dream, and always his Master awaited him there, seemingly impatient for him to return. He was petted and sucked and penetrated and loved all over, but never allowed to reciprocate. He did not understand this at all. The more they loved, the more he realized how beautiful his Master was, how much he wanted to touch him, but he--what could his subconscious be thinking?

Finally, he felt himself drawing out of what would be the final dream-state. His lover and Master pressed a final tender kiss to his lips and vanished. Slowly he began the climb towards consciousness, taking his time, wanting to savor the lingering sensations as long as possible.




With an abruptness that almost hurt physically, Qui-Gon Jinn pulled himself from his student's dream, shaking hand continuing to pull at his still-erect cock. He had yet to allow himself release this night and Obi-Wan's sheets were so stained he'd never notice. Force, the lad was so beautiful in sleep, face languorous with pleasure--he jerked quickly and hard, and came with a low growl over the bedding, part of the warm semen shooting onto Obi-Wan's own belly and making him murmur slightly in his sleep.

As steadily as he could, Qui-Gon rose to his feet, knees aching from kneeling all night beside his padawan's bed. He'd done it. He'd actually done it. Invaded his student's dreams, made love to him in all the ways he'd ever imagined doing, and now he was going to steal away like a thief and let Obi-Wan wake, none the wiser. This was insane. He could feel himself losing control, as if he'd dropped a tangible thing.

First whores, now taking the boy in his own imaginings, he reflected bitterly as he closed the opening of his trousers and carefully erased all sense of his Force-presence from the room. What was next--attacking Obi-Wan in some deserted hallway and wrestling him to the ground? Controlling his mind so his student could actually be forced to love him? At least he'd kept some control, he hadn't made Obi-Wan touch him or even permitted that to happen. No, tonight he'd just feasted on the body like some kind of animal.

Jedi Master, his ass.

Just this once, he promised himself as he returned to his own rooms, already feeling the exhaustion from the lack of sleep. Just this once. It will be enough. It has to be.

Knowing even then that it was a lie.
