Summary: The federal agencies have a conference in LA. Vin Tanner and Chris Larabee of the ATF and Tony DiNozzo and Jethro Gibbs from NCIS run across each other and find out they all have a lot in common and not all of it is good.
Pairings: Vin/Tony, Vin/Chris, Tony/Gibbs
The next morning found all four men meeting in the dining room for breakfast. Chris and Jethro barely acknowledged their teammates as they drank cup after cup of coffee ignoring the food.Truth was they were embarrassed that the two younger men had to get them upstairs and put them to bed. What was said between the two couples was only a hazy memory to the older agents but from the frosty looks and barely veiled barbs from Vin and Tony they must have said some pretty stupid things.
Vin and Tony had talked that morning before meeting their bosses and had decided that they were not going to be the ones to make the first move. If Chris and Jethro wanted to drown their sorrows in liquor that was their issue. The younger men figured that while the two older men had a problem with admitting that they loved their teammates and yes loved another man it was something that they were going to have to work through.
So the younger men treated their bosses as just that their boss. Chris and Jethro could find nothing to bitch about in the demeanor of their teammates, which of course just served to piss them off even more.
They had come down fully prepared to apologize for their behavior but with the overly polite tones that they were being treated to they also dug in their heels. There was nothing quite like four stubborn men.
It was four miserable men who got on the shuttle to the convention center.
Vin and Tony sat together; Jethro and Chris sat right behind them much to everyone's displeasure.
It felt like the older agents were staring holes in the back of their heads during the meeting. The older agents didn't like the way their subordinates sat with shoulders touching and would whisper every now and then to each other.
Thankfully at lunch they sat with several other agents from around the country so it wasn't so awkward. To Chris and Jethro's consternation a bunch of the agents were going out to the same bar that their teammates went to last night. Tony and Vin agreed to go with them.
Chris glanced at Jethro who announced that he and Chris would like to go also. Vin and Tony glanced at each other clearly not looking forward to spending their evening with their disapproving bosses.
The day passed slowly until finally they were able to go back to the hotel. It was arranged that everyone going out that night meet in the hotel lobby at 7:00 PM.
Tony and Vin were already in the lobby when the elevator opened to let Chris and Jethro off.
The older agents almost groaned out loud when they laid eyes on their teammates.
Vin and Tony again had chosen shirts that brought out the color in their eyes but this time the shirts were made of a lightweight silky type material. Vin's was in a western style while Tony's was very uptown. The jeans were sinfully tight and clung in all the right places.
At the bar everyone ordered some food and pitchers of beer, Chris and Jethro had made sure that while Tony and Vin sat next to each other they were sitting next to their respective teammates.
After a couple of hours almost everyone had gone back to the hotel. Tony had headed for the bathroom with Jethro not far behind him leaving Chris, Vin and another agent at the table.
When the agent got up to go get another beer Chris took his chance leaning closer so that no one could overhear his conversation.
"I want you to come back to our hotel room. Tony can't give you anything that I can't," Chris urgently whispered.
Vin gave his boss a go to hell look.
"Really! How about he cares about me and my feelings, he doesn't want to keep me a dirty little secret on the side and he is honest with his feelings," Vin shot back his voice filled with barely suppressed venom.
Chris sat back shocked at the anger and underlying that the hurt that filled the younger man's voice.
"I'm an ass, Vin. You know that, I'm trying right now to get through to you," Chris replied in an even tone.
"Get through to me. What am I some stupid kid who can't figure anything out? Tony treats me like an equal and he makes beautiful love," Vin hissed wanting to hurt Chris the way he'd been hurting the last few weeks.
He knew he had succeeded when Chris recoiled from him. The blond had prayed that the two younger men had not made love but it looked like he had lost Vin before he even had a chance to have him and cherish him. Chris wanted to throw himself on Vin's mercy and beg for forgiveness but he couldn't do it. Not only did he figure Vin wouldn't grant him forgiveness but the last time he had begged for something it had not been forthcoming. He had begged God to bring his wife and son back, it had not happened so he promised never to beg for anything again.
There was no one he could blame but himself for the loss of Vin to another man.
The agent walked up just then with his beer the tension at the table not registering with him as he began talking about the seminars set up for tomorrow.
Meanwhile Jethro had cornered Tony in the bathroom. Jethro had his former lover backed up against the sink.
"I want you Tony and I know you want me. We can have a good time together," Jethro growled as he gripped Tony's arms tight enough to leave bruises.
"I don't care about a good time. I want a future and since you can't or won't give it to me then I'll find it somewhere else. Vin is more than capable of being a part of that future and he is so gorgeous when he is making love. Vin and I have a give and take relationship. So take that and think about it," Tony snarled pulling away from his boss, which wasn't hard since Jethro had frozen at being told that Tony and Vin had made love.
Jethro felt his heart break and knew it was his entire fault. During their time together he had never once let Tony take him, oh Tony had tried to once but Jethro couldn't give up that control and Tony, sweet Tony had not pushed it ever again.
He was such a fucking bastard; Tony was better off with Vin.
It was a somber trip back to the hotel. Chris and Jethro reminded their teammates that they were to be on the early bus tomorrow. Chris and Jethro were going over later as they had some things to take care at the hotel, there was a small meeting and only the big boss's were invited.
Chris and Jethro went to their separate rooms, but it was a long time before they went to sleep.
Vin and Tony talked for a while about what their boss's had said at the bar. The two men had decided that the older men were stubborn idiots, but they couldn't leave them. Their cases might be hopeless and they might never get Chris and Jethro into a long-term loving relationship but at least they could be around the men that they loved.
Neither man wanted to sleep alone so they showered and curled up in bed. They didn't feel up to making love like they had in the shower. That night they just wanted to be held by someone who cared.
The next day they were up early determined not to give their boss's a reason to be pissed at them. Unfortunately they missed the bus by five minutes and decided to fork over the money to take a cab.
At the convention center their luck continued on a downhill slide. Vin had left his cell phone at the hotel and Tony had left his laptop there. Grumbling under their breath the two men grabbed another cab and headed back to their hotel.
Meanwhile Chris and Jethro were in a living hell. They had gone downstairs to go to their meeting and found chaos. The early bus to the convention center had been in wreck, all the agents on board had been killed at least that was what was being reported.
Immediately the two-team leaders went to the front desk where the clerk told them that he had seen Vin and Tony go out the front door to catch the bus. Unfortunately the man had not seen them miss the bus so it was two heartbroken devastated men that he watched go over to the elevator. Jethro had gotten the key to Tony's suite so they could be close to the men they loved and lost.
They had wanted to rush to the scene but sterner heads prevailed by pointing out that the traffic was backed up and they would not be able to reach the wreck site. Neither man wanted to hear that but they knew that they weren't in any condition to drive.
Sitting on the sofa in the suite Chris took a shuddering breath and felt tears on his cheeks. Vin was gone, his soul mate, his beautiful blue eyed angel, the one person who had loved him unconditionally. The person he had hurt so badly by his words and actions. Now it was too late to make amends, too late to let Vin know how much he loved him, how he had been an idiot and oh God he just wanted one more chance.
Jethro saw Chris's shoulders shaking and knew the blond was crying, but so was he. Picturing Tony in his mind, he saw the shit eating grin, the bright green eyes, and the hurt look when Jethro's words had cut the younger man to the core. Just one more chance with Tony was that too much to ask but it must have been, because now that wonderful bright light that was Tony DiNozzo was gone.
Jethro put his hand on Chris's shoulder in support. Chris put his hand over Jethro's and squeezed, there were no words they could offer each other in comfort.
The older men were lost in their misery, their emotions laid bare not knowing what to do next and for once in their lives there was no control for either man.
It was into this room filled with despair, guilt, and remorse that Vin and Tony stepped into.
The two younger men gaped at the scene in front of them. Chris and Jethro were sitting side by side on the sofa. There was the unmistakable sound of crying coming from the two men.
Immediately they jumped to the conclusion that something had happened to one of their teammates back home. The fact that it was highly inconceivable that something bad would have happened in both the ATF and the NCIS teams at the same time never registered with them. The sheer shock of seeing there hard nosed bosses so upset was unnerving and a sight they had never seen before.
The shock that their boss's, two of the toughest hardest men around were this upset overrode their common sense and they hurried forward.
Vin rounded the sofa to stand by Chris while Tony hurried to sit down next to Jethro.
Vin's shocked "Cowboy" coincided with Tony's worried, "Boss".
The response was instantaneous and surprising.
Chris paled as he looked up at Vin, his mouth dropping open in astonishment. Chris got to his feet and reached a shaking out touching Vin's cheek with his fingers. Vin gasped as the blond placed a strong hand behind his neck pulling Vin forward into his arms.
Chris held Vin head in place as he brought his mouth down to claim Vin's. Just before he kissed the younger man Chris whispered, "I'm sorry. I love you so much."
Vin felt an insistent tongue demanding entrance to his mouth so he complied and immediately Chris slipped his tongue inside moaning as he savored the heat and sweetness of Vin's mouth.
Finally Chris released Vin from his breath-stealing kiss. Chris smiled as dazed blue eyes looked up at him. A part of him needed to know how and why Vin was here and not lying dead on a cold unforgiving highway but there was a bigger more important part that didn't care. Vin was alive and in his arms and that was all that mattered.
"Which one is your room?"
Vin glanced over at a shut door still wondering if he was asleep and dreaming this whole episode.
Chris grabbed Vin's hand and led him into the bedroom shutting the door firmly behind them.
Tony had watched the whole thing with a stunned look on his face. What the hell was going on?
Turning to face Jethro, he was flabbergasted to see tears' drying on Jethro's face, the older man was staring at him intently.
Jethro reached out and framed Tony's face with his hands. Tony touched his fingers to Jethro's face and then looked down at his damp fingertips, he had never seen his boss cry before.
Jethro said the words that Tony never thought he would hear from the man.
"I love you Tony. I was wrong and I want a future with you. Let me show you just how much I love you," Jethro whispered as he leaned forward pressing his mouth to Tony's.
Tony wondered what the hell had happened to change his boss's attitude but decided not to question it especially as talented fingers were rubbing his cock through the soft material of his pants. Jethro pushed Tony back into the corner of the sofa.
Tony whimpered as Jethro lay on top of him pinning him in place, God it had been so long since he had felt the hard strong body covering his. Jethro let his hands roam freely over the much loved and remembered body, he rested his hand over the beating heart of the one person he loved and thanked God that he had this chance to make things right.
In a matter of minutes Jethro had pulled Tony to his feet and was ushering him into the other bedroom. A quick detour to the bathroom and he had what he was going to need later on. Then barely taking time to shut and lock the door Jethro maneuvered Tony to the bed gently pushing him down.
Tony reached up for Jethro but the older man grasped his hands and put them over his head.
"I want to take this nice and slow," Jethro whispered his blue eyes filled with love.
Tony however had other ideas. It had been to fucking long since they had made love, granted it had been Jethro's fault but still Tony had done without at least until the shower with Vin. But while that had been great he wanted to feel Jethro take him and take him now.
Tony startled Jethro when he growled, "NO! I want you now."
Tony pulled his wrists out of Jethro's hands. One hand landed on Jethro's waist while the other one cupped the back of the older man's neck. Jethro found his head yanked down so Tony could devour his mouth.
Jethro groaned into the kiss. God how he had missed this, never again would he be so careless with the man beneath him, Tony was his world and it had taken a tragedy to make him see just what he had almost lost.
In seconds the clothes were gone and it was skin rubbing against skin driving them both crazy.
Jethro suckled at Tony's nipples smiling as his lover whined and arched up. Slipping one finger into Tony's tight ass he paused, he had been sure that the two younger men had made love yet Tony was tight as ever and there was no slickness to indicate that anyone had taken him that morning.
Tony felt his lover pause and glanced up, he saw the puzzled look and knew what the older man was thinking.
"Vin and I, we made out in the shower, but neither one of us could...ah...you know take the other one. We are both in love with someone else and it felt like a betrayal."
Jethro felt a spurt of possessive pride. Tony was still his, sure the two young men had made out, but there had been no penetration although he wouldn't have blamed his lover if he had made love to the gorgeous Vin Tanner. After all Jethro was being a prick and didn't deserve the loyalty that Tony had shown him.
Smiling Jethro slid another slick finger into Tony's ass as he leaned down and sharply nipped at his lover's neck.
"So this sweet ass is still mine?" he questioned wanting to hear the words, the arrogant male in him wanted to know that he was still the only person who had claimed Tony like this...at least recently.
Tony gasped as he was stretched quickly, it seemed Jethro couldn't wait either, though his lover was making sure he was stretched so he wouldn't be torn.
"All yours boss, always," Tony replied then whimpered as the fingers pulled out of him and Gibbs slick cock nudged his entrance.
Jethro paused and waited until Tony's eyes locked with his. Then in one smooth thrust he was buried inside his lover's ass.
Tony cried out as he was filled, the stretch burned a bit, it had been a few weeks since he had been taken after all, but damn it felt so good.
Jethro pushed Tony's legs over his shoulder bringing the tight ass slightly off the bed giving him a better angle.
Sure enough at the next plunge inside he slid across Tony's prostate causing his lover to nearly come off the bed.
Tony was begging to be allowed to come but Jethro had other plans.
Jethro didn't touch Tony's cock as he plundered the sweet ass drilling inside losing himself in the man writhing beneath him.
Jethro felt his balls tighten up and knew he was close as his cock began to jerk spilling inside his lover. Thankfully he had enough presence of mind to grasp Tony's cock and clamp down at the base preventing his lover from coming.
Tony cried out, his aching cock needing release; the hand holding his shaft so tight it was painful.
Tony reached to push Jethro's hands away but stopped when Jethro tightened his grip and slammed back inside his ass all but taking his breath away.
When Jethro had finished filling his lover's bowels with his seed and had gotten his bearings back he had slowly pulled out of Tony.
Glancing up he saw Tony's eyes glaring at him for denying him the orgasm he so dearly needed.
Jethro reached for the lube, he took Tony's hand and made his lover grasp his own cock to prevent release. It was a testament on how much the younger man trusted him that Tony didn't just finish the job himself.
Then to Tony's astonishment Jethro reached around and began preparing his puckered entrance. When they had gotten together Jethro had made it plain that he had never allowed anyone to take him and never would. If Tony wanted to be with him then it was on his terms or there would be no relationship.
Tony had only tried to top once and Jethro had frozen up immediately, in a split second Tony had been flipped onto his stomach and Jethro had been sliding inside claiming the younger man hard and fast showing him by action that he was the alpha and Tony belonged to him not the other way around.
Jethro was not a talker; he spoke with his actions as his vivid blue eyes met passion filled green ones.
Jethro straddled Tony and was about to lower himself on his lover's hard cock when Tony reached out and stopped him.
In a few seconds Tony was spooned up behind Jethro and urging him to raise his leg whispering that this would be easier on him since it was the first time Jethro had ever been taken by anyone.
Jethro gasped as his ass was filled for the first time by the man he adored.
Pain flared for several seconds after all Jethro's was a virgin ass, but soon as his passage adjusted to the big intruder the pain morphed into pure pleasure.
Then Tony gave a little push and Jethro cried out as his prostate was rubbed, this was a new experience, as the man had never even allowed a finger to get inside him.
Jethro turned his head and stared at Tony in shock, pure pleasure on his face.
Tony grinned, "That is your prostate, Jethro. Do you like it?"
Tony pushed in again and was gratified when he felt his boss and lover push back on him.
Jethro groaned, "Oh fuck yeah I like it."
Tony placed his arms around his lover and between his gentle thrusts and Jethro slowly pushing his ass back they got a rhythm going.
Jethro was appalled that he had not allowed Tony to take him before, he had denied them both this pleasure, shit how stupid was that.
Jethro's asshole grasped the cock tightly not wanting to let it go.
Tony was so close he needed to come so bad, but he never wanted it to end. The feel of Jethro's cum in his ass and the feel of his lover's tight hot channel surrounding his throbbing cock made him spiral out of control until he screamed his completion. Jethro gasped as his lover's hard hands grasped him tightly holding him in place as Tony thrust harder forcing his seed deep into Jethro's willing body.
Jethro watched as his own cock while never getting fully erect again leaked some juices onto the bed.
Tony reached around and again pulled Jethro close to him to clutch him tight to his chest; then he carefully slipped his cock out of his lover's hot body.
Jethro gasped at the pain, it wasn't bad but he wasn't expecting it, not after the mind-blowing experience he had just had.
The two men finally looked at each other, sated and satisfied looks on both their faces.
"Thank you Jethro, for the gift you just gave me," Tony solemnly said talking about his lovers until then untouched ass and the ultimate show of trust the ex-Marine had given him.
"I should have given you that gift long before now. Believe me it felt so good that from now on we take turns being on top."
Tony was relieved to hear his lover's comments. They meant that Jethro had really enjoyed himself, liked being penetrated and that he intended Tony to be a permanent part of not only his professional but also his private life.
Tony waited, he knew it was coming and sure enough the look of slight distaste crossed his lover's face as the fact that they were both sticky and wet registered with him. Jethro was a neat and clean freak; Tony figured it must have to do with the military.
"How about a quick shower then we can call down for breakfast and then spend the rest of the day in bed," Jethro said already trying.
Tony saw Jethro wince as he got up and vowed to take it easy on his lover.
As they stepped into the shower Tony asked, "Don't we have to go to the seminar and while I'm not complaining why the sudden turn around about us being together?"
Jethro's face fell a bit and then as the hot water hit them he told the young man about the wreck and how he was sure that Tony was dead.
Needless to say the shower took longer as both men thought of the fine agents lost in the tragic accident. There was nothing they could do except take care of each other and they planned on doing that for the rest of their lives.
Jethro tucked Tony back in bed and told him to stay put, he was going to call for breakfast and then he would be right back. The bedrooms in the suite didn't have phones in the bedrooms just in the main room that was for privacy's sake.
Tony yawned as he told his lover to hurry up and get back.
Across the way in the other bedroom Chris and Vin were getting acquainted with each other. After all they had never made love with each other just shared a couple of kisses.
Vin shivered as he watched Chris shut the door, then the blond turned to face him, the green eyes alight with a possessive loving glow. Then the look on Chris's face changed as he looked at the messy bed behind Vin. It hit home that Vin had shared this bed with another man, Tony DiNozzo.
HIS Vin.
Vin glanced behind him wondering what had caught Chris's attention; he swallowed nervously as he realized what his soon to be lover was thinking.
Sure enough Chris prowled across the room, his gaze and walk clearly predatory causing Vin to take another step backwards. Chris yanked Vin into his arms, holding the younger man tight as one hand worked its way into that mane of long silky hair.
Gripping the hair tight enough to cause Vin to wince Chris hissed, "You're mine from now on Vin. I don't share. I thought I lost you because of my stubbornness and short sightedness. Thank God I have a second chance, but I have to know exactly where I stand. Did you and Tony make love? Can you forgive me and give us a chance?"
Vin melted closer to the hard blond body, as he did so the hand in his hair loosened slightly. Vin had always known that if he caught Chris's attention it would be overpowering, the blond was a definite alpha male. Vin had no doubt that once they made love Chris would rip anyone apart who looked at him wrong. It was a good thing that he knew himself and knew that he wanted to submit to the enigmatic temperamental blond tornado, he was also well aware of the fact that he had stirred Chris's emotions when he had told him at the bar that Tony made beautiful love. Chris was now working under the idea that he had allowed Tony to take him.
Chris nuzzled Vin's neck pressing kisses to the damp skin, inhaling Vin's unique scent as he waited for the answer to his question.
Of course in the end it didn't really matter, Vin Tanner was his and he would claim the younger man, drive any thought of previous lovers right out of his mind, he was also confident that Vin would forgive him. Mainly because Vin was a better man than him and always would be.
Vin gasped as his Adams apple was sucked on, talented fingers removing clothes as he tried to remember the question before his brain short-circuited.
Damn when the hell did Chris get so many hands, the hand never left his hair but his clothes were coming off.
"I...I...ah...we only...with our hands in the...oh shit that feels good...in the shower, that's all. Of course I forgive you...I love you, I will always love you" Vin finally managed to get out.
Chris pulled Vin's head back his hand still buried in all that hair.
Chris gazed at the big blue eyes, the high cheekbones and the flat out beautiful face.
"You are the most beautiful sight I have ever seen," he whispered as he tumbled them both into bed.
In no time they were both naked, Vin lying in the middle of the bed with Chris kneeling between his legs all spread out for the blonds attention. Chris raised up until he was looming over Vin pressing a kiss on the slightly swollen lips that he had already plundered several times.
Chris urged his young love to shut his eyes and just feel, when Vin's eyes drifted shut, Chris sucked a nipple into his mouth watching as Vin arched upward whimpering at the contact.
For several minutes Chris concentrated on the hard brown nubs, alternately sucking, pinching and nipping them until they were wet and red from all the attention.
Laving and sucking his way down the flat stomach he reached the red damp aching cock that was just begging for his attention. Since Chris Larabee wasn't one to ignore the obvious he tasted Vin slowly.
Vin cried out as Chris parted his lips and took the head of his cock into the blond's hot wet mouth. Chris took the hard shaft into his mouth and let it touch the back of his throat then began to suck hungrily on it.
Chris wanted Vin to come twice, once in his mouth then while Chris was buried in that tight hot ass. Chris stroked Vin's hot asshole feeling the puckered entrance give way so his finger could slip inside. Vin was so close, so needy so that all Chris had to do was stroke across the prostate a couple of times and he was drinking down Vin's cum determined to get every drop.
Vin's back had been impossibly arched when he had shot his load down Chris's throat the yell echoing around the room. Chris hoped no one called security thinking someone was being murdered.
Chris licked Vin clean then turned the younger man over on his stomach putting a pillow under his hips.
Chris then began to kiss and lick his way down Vin's back pulling little mewling noises from the back of Vin's throat.
Spending time on arousing his younger lover again Chris was rewarded when he slipped his hand under Vin and found him half hard.
Oh the resiliency of youth.
Reaching the two white mounds that hid heaven from him Chris spread the ass cheeks apart and ran his tongue down the cleft getting lost in the feel of the man beneath him.
Chris slipped his finger inside again, Vin was so incredibly fucking tight, and it was almost like he had never been with a man.
Chris had a suspicion it had been a long time since Vin had allowed himself to be taken and Chris was not about to embarrass him by asking.
Slipping off the bed he found some lotion in the bathroom and hurried back before Vin even had a chance to realize he had gone anywhere so far gone in the sensations and feelings that Chris had awoken in him.
Chris worked up to three fingers in the hot tender sweet hole moaning when tight muscles grasped his fingers.
Finally he had Vin stretched and slicked up his cock. Lining up his cock Chris slowly slid in inch by inch until he was buried inside the furnace that was his lover's body.
Vin moaned and whimpered as he was filled finally by the man he loved, sure it hurt it had been a long time, but God it also felt so right.
Chris slowly pulled out and then pumped his cock all the way back in and then slowed down as he pulled out again. Chris continued this rhythm until Vin growled at him to fucking take him already.
Chris smiled and then rammed his hardness all the way in to the hilt.
Vin bit down on the blankets bunched up under him to muffle the scream. Chris gripped the slender hips tight knowing he was probably leaving bruises and glad of that because if Vin was marked then it would be a reminder to the younger man that he was owned.
Chris pumped in and out of the tight hot passage, Vin arching back meeting him thrust for thrust.
Chris yelled as his climax hit sending his seed jetting into Vin's bowels claiming the younger man inside as well as out.
Vin quickly followed with his second orgasm that caused him to temporarily black out.
Chris slumped over Vin's body until he was able to pull out of the tight ass quickly checking for blood. Not seeing any he sighed and got up and cleaned them both up.
Working around Vin's oblivious body Chris tucked the younger man under the covers and then went to the outside room to call for food to be brought upstairs. There was no way they were leaving the room today, he wanted Vin all to himself and was sure Jethro felt the same about Tony.
Chris opened the door and was in time to see Jethro picking up the phone. Thankfully both men had thought to wrap blankets around themselves; even so they blushed but still managed to look arrogant and supremely confident.
After all they were quite a bit older than their young lovers and they were the ones that were up and about.
Jethro ordered for all four men as Chris told him what they wanted.
Hanging up the phone Jethro said, "Well I take it your apology went as well as mine?"
Chris smiled, "Yes it did if you mean I just had the best loving of my life with the man I adore."
"Good. We can't squander this second chance, Chris. Most people don't get second chances, hell some people never have one chance at the happiness we've been given," Jethro replied.
Chris nodded his head a feeling of fear clenching his heart as he remembered the terror that had filled his soul at hearing about the wreck and thinking he had lost Vin forever.
Looking at Jethro he saw the same look on the ex-Marines face, he had the feeling that both of them would be having nightmares for a while picturing their lovers' bloody and torn bodies tangled in sharp metal on the highway.
Just then Tony's voice drifted out to them.
"Jethro, forget breakfast. I'm bored and hungry for something else," came the teasing voice.
Jethro glanced at Chris, seeing the shit-eating grin on the blonds face, and he just knew the same look was on his face.
Chris waved him to the bedroom.
"I'll call down and tell them to just bring the breakfast into the room. I have a feeling we both are going to be otherwise occupied for a while."
Jethro nodded his head clearly eager to get back to his lover. Before he left he stuck his hand out.
Chris took the offered hand and then pulled until they were in a brief hug.
It was a hug between two strong men who had been through hell and back.
They nodded at each other then Jethro all but rushed across the room and into the room where his lover impatiently waited. The door shut and Chris heard Tony laugh just before the door shut completely.
Jethro had leered at his lover as he was shutting the door and was halfway across the room before the door shut completely.
Just as the door closed he was on top of a laughing Tony and beginning another loving assault on his young lover words of love tumbling between the two men.
In the outer room Chris grinned and made the phone call about breakfast then headed for his own lover.
Pausing in the doorway he gazed at the vision that was waiting for him in bed. Vin was sitting up leaning against the headboard, his ankles crossed and his arms behind his head the blue eyes fixed on the doorway.
Chris knew he needed to tell Vin about the wreck but selfishly he was going to wait just a bit longer. There was time enough later for the bad news and they had wasted enough time as it was.
Vin caught his breath as Chris shut the door; the determined green eyes pinned on him as the intimidating blond crossed the room.
Chris crawled right up the lithe body until he was straddling his lover.
"Love you baby," he whispered right before he reclaimed the sweet mouth.
It was some time later when he released the swollen red lips that Vin shyly replied, "I love you to cowboy."
When the breakfast arrived it was left in the outer room where after several hours it was cold. No one cared though as they were busy with more important things.
Important things like love, soul mates, making love and feelings that would never again take a back seat to pride, fear, stubbornness or anger.
End
