Chapter 2

JD had the day off but he decided to come in to Sacred Heart anyway. He just wanted to see Perry for a little while before going off and doing his thing. Trying to go unnoticed so that none of his interns would page him JD treaded carefully. Knowing the hospital like the back of his hand, this was an easy task for him.

JD spotted Perry pretty quickly. Watching as he looked at a chart with such seriousness, JD couldn't help but smile at how cute he looked. Seeing Perry go into a supply closet, JD quickly made his move. He ran like the wind and quickly snuck in behind his lover. Giving him a sneak hug from behind, JD grinned. Pressing himself into Perry's back he felt the warmth.

"Surprise." JD kissed the back of Perry's neck before moving in front of him.

Perry, instead of expressing his gratitude, swallowed a gulp and stared annoyed at JD. "What are you doing here? I thought you had the day off meaning you were away from me."

"I had a feeling you wanted to see me, so here I am." JD made a ta-dah motion with his hands before bringing them to Perry's shoulders. "Plus I wanted to kiss you."

JD captured Perry's lips. He found it somewhat exciting that they could get caught at any moment. Allowing his hands to venture, JD ran his fingers through Perry's hair. Somehow he had the feeling Perry wasn't sharing his excitement as his kiss was less than enthusiastic.

"Is something wrong?" JD lightly stroked Perry's arm.

Perry shook JD's hand away. "I told you. Roof or nothing, understand? Listen JD, we can't just go around doing this no matter how much we want to."

"So you admit you want to kiss me too." JD smiled, catching Perry's eyes. He steadied Perry's face so their eye contact remained. "Come on, just one kiss before I see you tonight. You're still coming over aren't you?"

Feeling weak once again, Perry succumbed to the power of JD's eyes. "Of course I'm coming. Wouldn't miss it for the world. Come here." He pulled JD right up against him, forcing his open mouth on JD's so desperately for a second he wondered if he was hurting him. He relaxed into the kiss when he felt JD returning his passions.

Perry let himself lose control and let all his bottled emotions out in kisses and moans. He slid his hand up JD's shirt, digging into the flesh on his chest and feeling the erect nipple tickle his palm.

"Hold on one second I just have to grab some things." Perry heard Elliot's voice like a warning siren. He backed away from JD, his breathing panicked. Grabbing some random supplies off the shelf he tried to play it cool.

The door opened and Elliot stepped in. "JD I thought you had the day off." She grabbed a few supplies.

Running his hand through his hair and feeling the heat from Perry's glare on his cheek, JD shrugged. "I was just paged by an intern. You know, needed something really stupid. Plus it gives me a chance to catch up with my favourite mentor."

"Interns, sometimes they drive you nuts." Elliot replied, shaking her head. "I'll see you guys later alright. Bye Dr Cox."

JD breathed a sigh of relief. "That was a close one, huh Perry?"

Dropping his supplies to the ground, Perry grabbed JD's shoulders and shook him. "I warned you roof or nothing but you had to push it didn't you? If we were caught, do you know what would have happened?"

"Relax. It's still our secret. Our beautiful little secret. I haven't even told Turk because I kind of like it. We share something no-one else does." JD leaned in to peck Perry on the cheek.

Perry slapped JD before he could get closer. It was so hard that it echoed in the small supply closet. "Listen up and listen good. If you can't get yourself under control then we are finished. Don't ever pull shit like this again, do you understand?"

JD held his cheek, swallowing back a few tears of emotional and physical pain. "Okay Perry."

"You know I feel for you JD, but come on. This is for the best. We agreed on that, remember." Perry sighed, seeing that once again he had hurt JD. "Listen, maybe I shouldn't come over tonight. I think we need a break."

"You promised." JD looked at him seriously, the slap burning even more.

"We need to get this in order. This is just a casual thing where we let out some built up sexual tension that just happened to strike us. Coming over tonight would be risky. Please understand." Perry tried to be gentle to alleviate his guilt. His feelings were out of control and he couldn't deny it anymore.

JD nodded and watched Perry leave. For a while he stood in the closet, assessing his relationship. Perry always pushed him away before they were together, it was part of the challenge JD liked. He knew Perry wanted to be close to him, open his heart but he was right about the complications. Plus Elliot catching them would have put things in an awkward position.

Not in the mood to leave the hospital just yet, JD headed up to the roof. He visited the spot where he and Perry would meet regularly. Touching the wall he tried to remember all the positives about their relationship. Eventually he managed to kill the doubts in his mind and let his fantasy drift into the possible future of him and Perry together, in love. After all, the reason he and Jordan were back together due to a "casual sex thing" so he wasn't ruling out hope.

"JD, are you okay man?"

Snapping out of his fantasy, JD realised Todd was standing in front of him. Once again the surgeon had come to the roof and stripped down in order to catch some rays. Todd rolled his eyes at JD drifting out of his own little mind. JD just smiled and nodded.

"Hey dude, you promised you'd hang out on the roof." Todd reminded him, gesturing to the emptiness around him. "No time like the present."

A part of him didn't really want to but JD wasn't about to break a promise and risk more conflict. Plus he figured he had nothing better to do anyway. Stripping down to his briefs, JD grabbed the lotion from Todd. A part of him felt relief at the openness, especially through all the secrecy. He just preyed that he wouldn't burn as he blinked in the sunlight.

"We have been getting some great sun lately." JD commented, spreading some lotion on his body.

"Yeah it's been pretty good coming up here." Todd nodded, leaning in closer to JD. "Plus, there have been people doing it on the roof."

Feeling a little sick and paranoid, JD tried to hide the horror on his face. "Really?"

"Yeah, I totally heard two dudes going at it." Todd explained, motioning to Perry and JD's special spot. "I figured it was Mark the nurse and Matt the ripped guy in the cafeteria."

JD felt slightly relieved that Todd knew nothing of his affair with Perry. He began to relax a little and enjoy the sun. "So how's surgery going for you Todd?"

"This really hot chick just got breast implants." Todd smiled as he remembered. "Then she thanked me by spanking me if you know what I'm saying." He held up his hand for a high five.

JD, happy that the subject was off his secret didn't mind raising his hand. He turned towards Todd to receive his high five. "Hot chick five." He said randomly, trying to stay in the moment.

Todd slapped his hand but before he could do his usual finger snap he turned his attention to JD's side. "Dude that is one massive shiner you have there. How did you get that?"

JD looked at the bruise where Todd was gesturing. It was from when Perry punched him for trying to steal a kiss in the bathroom. "Oh you know, accidents happen."

"It's a sex bruise isn't it?" Todd stepped closer and grazed it with his fingertips. "Whoever did that must be feisty."

JD felt the area tingle as Todd's fingers lightly circled it. "Oh yeah, they're quite feisty alright." He laughed as he thought of the many times Perry angered. Remembering how gorgeous he looked when acted tough. His memories were put on pause when he realised Todd was still circling his bruise gently.

"Come on tell me who did this." Todd finally pulled his hand away. "Who's giving you the tough love?"

JD shook his head. "I don't think so."

"Secrets drive me crazy. You can trust me." Todd's mischievous grin spread on his face. "Tell me JD."

"I'll see you later Todd." JD went to pick up his clothes.

Todd snatched JD's pants swiftly. "Come on! Tell the Big Dog who you're hooking up with. You know I can still rat tail you with these." He twisted the pants strategically and playfully smacked JD.

"Ouch." JD held the side of his thigh. "Todd, give me my pants back."

"That's what she said." Todd joked, trying to dodge JD.

JD tried to do a dive for his clothes and as a result he fell on the ground. As he rolled over to get up he tripped Todd, who ended up falling on top of his legs. JD grabbed his pants and sat up just as Todd began to steady himself, causing the two men to bump heads.

"Dude, uncool." Todd cried out, though laughing afterwards.

JD rubbed his head, meeting Todd's eyes. He smiled at his friend, returning the laughter. Noticing that Todd's dark brown eyes were turning serious as they took in each other, JD's smile faded. Todd reached over and touched JD's shoulder, giving it a squeeze. JD began to feel a little nervous as he realised a blush was appearing on his cheeks. He felt the familiar tingle on his shoulder as he felt Todd's thumb running over his skin.

"Well it was fun hanging out with you. We should totally hang out more." JD thought his voice sounded sincere enough, but he was still paranoid that the awkwardness showed.

"Definitely." Todd nodded, still with his hand on JD's shoulder and a suggestive smile on his face. He eyed JD up and down in approval.

Now feeling more nervous yet somewhat curious, JD realised he had to get away from Todd. "I have to go." He grabbed his clothes and without even putting them back on, sprinted for the door.
