Martin remembers the first time he thought seriously about taking Danny to bed.
It was the same moment he realized the constant flirting Danny did with everything on two legs that he thought was unconscious was meant sincerely for both men and women. It wasn't like he hadn't pondered Danny and sex before that moment, but it had been an academic appreciation for the way Danny moved and the way his smile sometimes made him look endearingly goofy.
It wasn't anything huge that tipped him off, just a look that spoke of knowing that passed quickly between him and some guy at the bar before they each nodded and turned back to their respective tables.
"Do you know that guy?" Sam had asked, catching the nod, but obviously not the look.
And Danny had just glanced back at the guy before shrugging, "He used to live in my building."
Of course Martin dreamed of Danny that night. It was only to be expected after a revelation of that nature, so Martin wasn't surprised when he woke up panting and stuck to his sheets. He was philosophical about it when it happened the next night as well. But by the eighth morning of having to strip his bed, he figured maybe his dreams were trying to tell him something. He had an idea what his subconscious was trying to tell him and wanted absolutely no part of that particular epiphany, thank you very much. It was bad enough trying to prove he was more than just Deputy Director Fitzgerald's son; there was no way he was going to add falling for his male partner to that mess.
Really. He wasn't.
So he spent the next few weeks scuttling around the office, avoiding Danny in everything but the strictest of professional settings, and doing his best to get enough sleep despite the unrelentingly naughty dreams that pulled him awake every night. He knew the way he was acting was bound to draw attention, but he figured Sam would try to weasel it out of him or, at worst, Jack would call him on the carpet.
He didn't expect Danny to show up at his apartment. He really didn't expect Danny to pin him against his own door and methodically begin stripping him without saying a word. He started to say, Hey, Danny, this is probably a really bad idea, but only got as far as, "He-" before Danny took advantage of the situation by sliding his tongue into Martin's mouth and licking every available surface.
That was three years ago and Martin has yet to grow tired of the way Danny kisses. Every touch of his lips feels new. Like now, Danny must have kissed his neck a thousand times in the past, but somehow the slick and sharp movement of lips and teeth over his throat seems brand new. Danny pauses at a particularly sensitive spot near his right collarbone and brushes a random pattern with his lips. He seems oblivious to anything but the patch of skin under his mouth, but Martin knows that's a lie.
Even if Danny weren't constantly away of everything around him in general and of Martin in particular, the hand sliding between his thighs isn't moving of its own volition. Slick fingers push inside of him and Martin feels Danny laugh against his neck at the noise he makes. The bastard laughs almost every time.
Martin doesn't mind, though, because it means that when Danny covers his body with his own and presses inside, he's smiling.
End
Comments
But, anyway, I really liked this little story. I think you got Martin down really well - how he'd try to avoid Danny and all that - and Danny too. I can so see him just showing up at Martin's apartment and not giving him a chance to say no. Great job, and extra points for letting them live happily ever after (I'm interpreting the "three years later" statement). Great job, and (once again) sorry I wasn't here to help...not that I think you needed any from reading the story.
If you ever need an opinion again (and I'm home), I'll be glad to help.
And then you wrote me Danny/Martin fic. Not just Danny/Martin fic, long-term, romantic, established relationship Danny/Martin with a Danny that oozes sex appeal and yet still smiles goofily, and a Martin who's pragmatic but not dumb enough to say no to the best thing that's ever happened to him.
I love this. I love you. It was terrific, and I thank you. Definitely made my laughably terrible birthday better.
Martin gives me such a funny look every time I let Danny bottom. He seems to think I don't know what I'm talking about, but Danny's the one running the show lately, not me.
