Title: The Big and Little Things They Did To Come Out

Rating: M

Pairing: David Rosen/Jake Ballard

Disclosures: This story is SLASH. Don't like, please don't read. Constructive feedback on the writing is appreciated; but no hate allowed, only love. I do not in anyway own the characters - we have beautiful Shonda to thank for them! I'm just playing with these slashy tidbits I'm making up. Thanks too to my kick-ass beta.

Story: Current day. Established relationship. After the SCOTUS decision to uphold same-sex marriage, David and Jake make their way out of their unintentional closet. While it's not entirely necessary to read "It Is So Ordered" prior to this work, it is the backstory.

Spoilers: None

Author's Note: This series is written in 100-word drabbles. It was a task I always wanted to tackle, and wasn't inspired to do so until now. If you have an idea for a drabble... Please do let me know! I will take requests until it is over!


David looked up as the DOJ Director of Human Resources knocked and entered his office.

"Good afternoon, Marsha, how can I help you this afternoon."

Her coolness could be felt from across the room where he stood.

"I need everyone to update their Personnel Responsibility forms, Mr. Rosen."

He took the forms from her, chuckling at her formality.

"I will make sure to get them returned to you tomorrow, ma'am," he returned.

David sat down after she left and surveyed the forms quickly. 'In Case of Emergency', 'Insured', 'Beneficiary' are the words that caught his eye.

'Jacob Ballard,' David penned.


David groaned as he opened it. A 'Save The Date' card for his cousin's wedding next spring. He would have tossed it, but she who he was closest to, save his immediate family.

"What's up?" Jake's concern evident but guarded. There shouldn't be much via US Postal Service to surprise them.

"My cousin's wedding. She made a note, expressly interested in any companion of mine."

"I don't have to go, David."

"Yeah I know, but I want you to, and that's... what's new."

"How about you answer 'Plus One' now, and we figure out the rest as we get there?"


Their escapades had been getting more adventuresome, their displays of affection more evident. By the time they got home Friday after work and the Chinese was on it's way, they were not nearly recovered let alone dressed. The doorbell rang.

"Dammit," Jake swore, he threw a blanket around himself and went to the door. David lay spent, mostly naked on the couch. A quilt partially covered his midsection.

"New Big Wong!" rang out loud and strong from the other side of the door once Jake opened it. Delivery Boy got more than an eyeful, offering Jake a fist bump. "Duuuude."
