Gifts [27 Jul 2002] Several months after they had been dating, AJ started to find little gifts from Kevin around his apartment. Sometimes cleverly hidden like under the kitchen sink or in a pair of AJ's shoes, sometimes set out in plain sight like on the bed or on the top shelf in the refrigerator. When AJ found a new pair of sunglasses in his medicine cabinet and a new corduroy jacket slung over the back of one of his couches, AJ decided he should get something for Kevin. It wasn't that he didn't know Kevin's taste, because he did. He didn't know what he was looking for as fingered over the merchandise at yet another clothing store, and as he smoothed down the front of black silk shirt, he thought that yes, Kevin would like this. But would it be good enough after all that Kevin has given him? He went home empty handed and the next morning he found a white-gold plated cigarette case tucked into the pocket of his favorite pants. "Kevin, what is this?" AJ asked later, dropping the cigarette case in Kevin's lap. Kevin put down the newspaper he as reading, picked the case up and examined it like he'd never seen it before. "It's a cigarette case," Kevin said. He opened it up and found that AJ had put his latest pack of cigarettes in it. "I know what it is, I mean why did you give it to me?" He sat down next to Kevin and took the case back. "You hate that I smoke." Kevin put his arm around AJ and kissed his neck. "I do hate it, but I can't stop you from doing it," he said. AJ closed his eyes and ran his fingers along a small hole torn in his jeans. "You keep giving me things," AJ said. "I like giving you things." "I'm starting to feel ungrateful," AJ said. He slipped the cigarette case into his pocket and left the room, not looking back -- not even for the slight cough Kevin made as he went back to reading his newspaper. For the next two days, AJ didn't find any presents from Kevin. On the third day, AJ decided what he was going to get for Kevin. AJ cornered Kevin in the kitchen the next morning and pressed a key into his hand. "I want you to move in with me." Kevin looked at the key, looked at AJ, and smiled. "Are you sure?" "Of course I'm sure. You practically live here anyway." Kevin took out his key chain and carefully slipped the new key in with the others. "I'm still keeping my place," he said. "But I'll bring all the stuff I need over this weekend, okay?" AJ grinned and tilted his head up to kiss Kevin. The kiss was sweet and small until AJ pressed himself against Kevin. Kevin's mouth opened and AJ slid his tongue across Kevin's teeth. Kevin bit down on AJ's bottom lip and the warm sensation in AJ's stomach turned explosive, spreading to the rest of his body. AJ broke the kiss and wrapped his arms around Kevin's waist. "I'm sorry," AJ said against Kevin's shoulder. "For what?" Kevin pressed his hand firmly against AJ's back and rubbed in small circles. "For being silly about the things you gave me," he said. "Don't worry about it," Kevin said. He kissed AJ again, lightly licking at the corners of his mouth. "I won't," AJ said. "I've got you, everything else is just a bonus." written as an improv with the words: merchandise, torn, explosive back to top

Literally [13 Mar 2002] "Fuck me, I'm tired," AJ said. Later, in bed and fully satiated, he settled against Kevin and said, "I didn't mean literally." back to top

Patience (Drabble) [16 Mar 2002] "Stop fucking with me and just do it," AJ said, his legs spread, the backs of his knees sweating, and his jaw cletched tight just in case Kevin actually listened to him and pushed inside of him unexpectedly. Kevin kissed AJ's stomach, fingers still stretching him. He ran his other hand along the underside of AJ's leg and lifted AJ's ankle over his shoulder. "You have to show me that you're ready, and I will," he said. "Fuck you and your fucking patience," AJ said and forced himself further onto Kevin's fingers, but Kevin pulled them out and pinned AJ's arms down. AJ grumbled, but relaxed and hooked the other ankle over Kevin's shoulder. back to top

Something [27 Sep 2002] You wake up in the middle of the night and he's standing there in a hotel robe watching you. He says he can't sleep and you're drowsy so you can't tell what he wants until you notice he's playing with the hem of the sheets. He would already be in bed with you except he wants to be invited. You roll over and pull back the blankets. His robe is tossed on the floor and he slides in next to you. He scoots back against you, and your hand wraps around his waist. He's naked. And that wouldn't really matter because it's familiar and telling AJ to put on clothes is always futile, except you're naked too and if someone saw the two of you like that it could be construed as something. You haven't had something with AJ since you married Kristin. He shifts a little and mumbles something into the pillow that sounds like "I miss you." You kiss him on the back of his head because you miss him too, and if you didn't kiss him then, even only in that friendly, comfortable way, you would lay awake all night thinking about kissing him other places. The next morning he's gone when you wake up, but he smirks at you when you meet up with him at breakfast and he asks how you slept. The others haven't come yet so you could kiss him again, this time with your bottom lip grazing his labret piercing, and no one would know. But you don't, because that would mean the two of you still had something. back to top

Don't Sleep [15 Mar 2002] "Can't sleep," Kevin said as AJ pulled him towards the bed. "Then don't sleep," AJ said grinning, and undid Kevin's pants. back to top

Hope (Drabble) [17 Mar 2002] When AJ used to knock on his door, Kevin would close his eyes and pray that when he opened the door, AJ would be sober. Those nights were rare, but cherished, like the labret stud that AJ gave Kevin after he decided to let the piercing close up. Kevin still liked to lick the place on AJ's chin where it used to be. Kevin wondered if AJ appreciated those nights like he did, not because the sex was better, but because AJ wouldn't act like he was running from something, but rather like he'd found a reason to stop running. back to top

Engagement [18 Dec 2001] "Why didn't you tell me," Kevin asked. He was sitting at his piano, striking an errant key here and there. He sat there intending to play something, but his concentration had drained out of him when AJ walked in the front door. "I wasn't sure they were going to leak it today," AJ said. There was no hello kiss for him when he came home, just a lot of non- eye contact. "You could have at least told me that they might." "I know, I know," AJ said, and attempted to sit next to Kevin on the piano bench. Kevin didn't scoot over to make room, didn't put his arm around AJ, didn't kiss his cheek and whisper sweet obscenities in his ear. "I know we talked about it a couple weeks ago, but I should have said something." He rested his head on Kevin's shoulder. "I'm sorry." AJ burrowed his hands under Kevin's shirt, one hand splayed over his chest, the other on his back, rubbing in circles. Kevin didn't respond though, until AJ's kissed his neck. Then Kevin's arms surrounded AJ, who licked at his collarbone. Kevin eventually moved his hands to either side of AJ's face, and when he kissed AJ, slow and deep, AJ knew that Kevin forgave him. In bed that night, they didn't have to say much -- AJ knew what Kevin needed, Kevin took what he wanted. AJ didn't think he could get deep enough inside of Kevin to give it to him, until Kevin rolled them over midway and rode AJ's cock like he'd never get to again. As AJ rested his head against Kevin's chest, listening to his heartbeat and feeling the up and down of Kevin's quick breathing, he ran his finger around Kevin's navel and said, "Will you promise not to cry at my wedding?" Kevin sighed, ran his fingers through AJ's hair. "I always cry at weddings." back to top

Tattoo [12 Mar 2002] Kevin kissed along the insides of AJ's thighs, reverently pressing his lips to each tattooed letter. "Mine," he said. back to top

Coffee [21 Mar 2002] Kevin woke up late and found AJ in the kitchen, drinking coffee, sifting through a magazine. Kevin poured himself a cup, sipped it. Coffee always tasted better when AJ made it. "You have breakfast yet?" Kevin asked. "No, just this," AJ said and held up his cup. "I'll make us breakfast then," Kevin said, and took another sip of his coffee before reaching in the cupboard for the waffle iron. AJ smiled and pulled Kevin over for a long, coffee-flavored kiss, because breakfast always tasted better when Kevin made it. email | back to top
