(A/N) Hey all, time for the second of our new fics to be unveiled this week – "Phase Midnight" – which was born when I received some one-shots too…adult…to include in our one-shot fic, Interphase, without violating its "T" rating. So from here on out, this'll be where you can find a collection of M-rated one-shots connected to our Project Freelancer Saga series. We'll have a few more updates on here over the next few weeks, and more on our other fics today, so keep an eye out! Starting us off is anna1795, with a very...well, a very interesting little one-shot!

Disclaimer: I'd just like to state that each chapter is to be considered solely the work of the individual writer, and these chapters can be considered either canon or AU, depending on the preference of the reader, unless either option is explicitly stated.

Enjoy!

Valentine's Day with Harper

Lt Ian Harper

Written by anna1795

"Love is life, and hate is death. Valentine's Day chocolates should come in a box shaped like a coffin."― Jarod Kintz.

"Happy Valentine's Day, Jay!" Harper says happily as he flops down into a chair, holding a box of expensive chocolates in his grip. He pushes it over towards Jay, who is face down on the table. Oddly enough, his boyfriend gives a negative grumble and pushes the box back towards him roughly. "What, you don't like chocolate?"

Jay gives an indeterminable grumble, his muscles clenching. Harper cocks his head oddly and stands up again. "Didn't quite hear that," he says smoothly, leaning over Jay's slumped body. "What was that?"

"Don't wanna…" he can barely make out from the mouth pressed up against the table.

"Oh, come on!" Harper complains. "I got these chocolates especially for you! You should at least try them," he says with a smile. Jay sits up rigidly and leans back in his chair, keeping his mouth firmly shut. Harper glares playfully at him.

"Come on, open up," he coos coaxingly, taking a chocolate in his fingers and putting them in front of his boyfriend's face. "Come on…" but Jay turns his head away defiantly, screwing up his face like a small child being fussy with their dinner.

"Jay, open up," Harper says sternly. Jay looked at him and shook his head again. "Don't be difficult." Again, a shake of the head.

With a sigh, Harper puts the chocolate in between his teeth and picks Jay up by the front of his shirt, deftly steering him towards their shared bed and laying him flat on his back. He straddles him determinedly. "Open up, Jay," he orders between the chocolate in his teeth.

Jay stares defiantly at him and bares his teeth. Harper clamps his hands down on his wrists and reaches them over his head intently, fumbling for a pair of cuffs that he knows are at the headboard. He finds them and expertly closes them around Jay's wrists, then he bends down and forces his mouth over the other man's mouth, forcing the chocolate between his lips and into his throat. He pulls back and closes Jay's mouth with his free hands. "Shh….shh…." he says softly while he runs two fingers down the quivering man's throat, making sure that the chocolate goes down without any trouble. "There…that wasn't so bad, was it?" he says gently, sitting back slightly. Jay gives a slight hiss before grinning mischievously.

"Don't know," he grumbles. "Might need a few more to get an accurate taste." Harper gives a wide grin and a wink. This was going to be a good night…
