A/N: Oh my gosh, it's been too long since I updated. A-level mocks and Christmas and coursework kind of got in the way.

Sexy in a Geeky way
Pythagoras twiddled his thumbs nervously. He sighed, his eyes fixed on Hercules opposite him who was tucking into a loaf of bread happily.
"I don't know what you're worried about, Pythagoras. He obviously likes you." Hercules said with his mouthful which resulted in crumbs being sprayed across the table. Pythagoras grimaced and wiped a fleck of spit from his cheek.
The "he" in question was out for a walk to clear his head from the manic events of the past few days. While it was good to be home Jason hadn't quite settled yet and although Pythagoras was sure he would he didn't want to disturb him while he was thinking things over. Jason did him that courtesy while he was mulling over theories and so it seemed respectable to allow it to him back.
"Is it? Is it really that obvious?" He asked, "Surely if it was that obvious I wouldn't be so nervous." He added as a mumble.
"Of course it's obvious, Pythagoras. If I can see it then trust me, it's there."
"Hercules, you swore that the lady who we buy our bread from was in love with you once." Said Pythagoras pointedly.
"Yes, and...?" Asked Hercules, tilting his head. He didn't exactly see the point of that statement.
"She couldn't even remember your name."
"She had memory problems."
"Because she was 74."
"Okay, point taken." Hercules said, putting his hands up in submission, "However Jason does like you. Why exactly are you so worried?"
Pythagoras sighed and leaned forward on his chair. He let his head fall into his hands before he ran them through his blonde curls. He ruffled his hair in stress and snapped his gaze up to Hercules.
"Because I'm hardly classed as 'sexy' am I?" Pythagoras growled slightly. Hercules smiled sympathetically.
"No.. not in the conventional way, I suppose." He started.
"Thanks for the support." Grumbled Pythagoras.
"Wait, I hadn't finished yet." Hercules put in as he stood up. He walked over to a cupboard and searched for a bottle of his favourite drink, "Not in the conventional way, but in your own way." He finished. His words were slightly muffled by his head being half way inside the cupboard but they were heard. Hercules grinned when he finally found what he was looking for and opened the lid.
"I'm not sure that's entirely endearing either." Said Pythagoras with a frown.
The door opened suddenly and Jason came in, placing another loaf of bread on the counter.
"I assumed Hercules would have eaten the other one," He looked towards the plate of crumbs, "And it turns out I was right. Anyway, pardon the eavesdropping but what's not endearing?"
Jason took away the dirty plate and cleaned it off with a smile as he waited for an answer from one of them. When Pythagoras failed to give an answer Hercules stepped up with what was going to be the very blunt truth.
"It's not endearing that he's sexy in his own way." Shrugged Hercules as he began to drink from the bottle. Pythagoras's eyes widened in terror.
"Hercules!" He growled through gritted teeth.
However Jason merely bit his lip and smiled down at the counter. He shook his head with a chuckle before walking towards the table. Leaning on the back of the old wooden chair he smiled at Pythagoras.
"He's sexy in a geeky way." Remarked Jason smoothly. He straightened up and walked behind the now furiously blushing mathematician. He planted a kiss onto his cheek before walking away. "I just forgot. I was meant to get some more cheese. "
Pythagoras didn't blink once as he watched Jason smile and leave the house once more.
"I won't say I told you so but I told you so." Sung Hercules, "And go after him you daft sod." He added fondly.
Pythagoras pushed his chair back ungracefully and it over with a thump. He didn't stop to pick it up and ran to catch up with Jason. Upon reaching the other man he firmly turned him around.
He grabbed Jason's collar and pulled him towards his lips. Jason had been caught by surprise as Pythagoras pressed his lips against his own but he soon warmed into the kiss and he struggled to contain his smile.
"I'd been wondering when you were going to do that." Jason said as they broke apart, "But I really do have to go get that cheese you know."
I'm sorry it was cheesy but I was going for that. I just wanted to write one. One cheesy, cliche one kiss and they're together fanfiction. I promise it won't happen again, unless you all like it I suppose.
But I couldn't write a whole series of Jagoras fanfiction without having the cliche, right?
