Summary: Then at last Connor pulled Cutters office door too and began walking down the corridor right into Stephen's trap. He didn't really understand why he did it. But with Stephen everything seemed to be made into a game, or his own personal challenge, his challenge since Abby had suggested it was to kiss Connor at every chance he managed to get without being caught by anyone except her.
Tell me I'm the only one
"What are you doing?" Abby yawned her eyes scrunched together and her stray hand swam lazily through the short blond locks.
Connor jumped lightly quickly clicking the pause button and turning to smile at her sheepishly.
"Well you know, I haven't been home that much and well. I kind of missed a few weeks of Stargate." Connor grinned; Abby arched her eyebrow before a tired giggle passed her mouth. She had almost forgotten what it was like to be woken in the middle of the night by Connor shouting at the television in only his boxers and a dressing gown. "Thanks for recording them while I was out."
Abby grinned ruffling the longish strands of his dark hair, an affectionate smile creased against her mouth when she sunk down to sit at his side on the floor, her mouth parted in a yawn and her eyelids dropped. "My pleasure," she whispered softly reaching over to take a handful of the cheesy puffs from Connor's packet.
"I owe you big time." Connor laughed, pressing the play button again and relaxing when Abby's head lolled tiredly against his shoulder.
"You clean up tomorrow, the whole house." Abby mumbled softly taking her head from his shoulder to munch on the mouthful of crisps, a soft smile dragged against Connor's mouth when she stuck her tongue out childishly.
"I'll do every room but the bathroom."
"No, the bathroom is the main part of payback." Abby chuckled, knocking his arm playfully.
"Thanks Abby." Connor whispered softly taking his eyes off the screen to watch her for a minute, her head seemed to cock to the side and confusing melted against the base of her iris.
"What for?"
"For everything, for helping me with Stephen, for letting me live here, for taping Stargate when I was out, for just being there." Connor smiled softly, Abby grinned passing through a small awe before punching his arm affectionately, Connor laughed reaching over and popping open another bag of crisps. "There is still a good three hours if you're up for it?"
"I'm going to bed, just keep it down. Night Con." Abby whispered softly climbing back onto her feet, Connor grinned at her flicking down the volume and wishing her goodnight.

"Is he alright?" Stephen whispered softly his eyes skipping against the slouched form of Connor, one hand pressed gently against the skin of his knee, the other flat against the floor palm facing upwards, his head had tipped back against the sofa and his mouth parted in slow snores. Following Abby into the kitchen and thanking her for the mug of coffee.
"Yeah, he was up all night watching Stargate." She chuckled softly slicing the small orange slices and placing them gingerly into Rex's food dish before skimming it over to the squawking reptile. "He didn't get to see them all, I think there was at least seven hours of tape for him to get through, must have gotten through at least five hours." She chuckled. "His neck is going to kill when he gets up." Abby muttered her tone oddly smug.
"But I thought they only lasted an hour?" Stephen mumbled arching his eyebrow when Abby grinned and turned on her heels to face him; her own finger's curling around the mug of her coffee and leaning over the counter.
"They are. Connor's watching every episode from this week and some from last."
"Why doesn't he just watch them when they are actually on the TV?" Stephen asked looking over at the student, a loud snore passed his open mouth and his head rolled to the side.
"Because he's with you, Connor likes to please people; you're not interested in Stargate so he doesn't bother asking to watch it. It almost embarrasses him. So I record them for him." Abby whispered softly.
"What an idiot." Stephen breathed slowly, his tone was playful and a smiled slipped against his mouth affectionately.
"Yeah he can be." She chuckled, her attention snapped to Connor when his body jolted away from the sofa a groan slipped away from his tongue as his hand snapped to the back of his neck cussing lowly under his breath. "Morning," Abby shouted. Flicking on the kettle and placing another mug against the counter.
"Morning," Stephen greeted, Connor blinked for a minute his eyes travelling against Stephen warm smile and playful blue eyes then over to Abby who grinned. Connor flushed setting himself in the chair besides Stephen his mouth quickly capturing Stephen's in a soft kiss.
"Morning," Connor breathed slowly, his eyes half lidded for a minute before a soft smile pressed into his mouth.

"Connor, get up." Nick sighed snapping his fingers at the young student for the seventh time since they had entered the office; Connor moaned softly his head instantly snapped back at the sound of Nick's voice, one hand rose from his side to rub tiredly at his eyes. "Go to bed earlier tonight."
"Uh- yeah, I will- um thank-you." Connor mumbled awkwardly the sheet of paper he's brought in previously had crinkled at the base and the wet ink began to print letters against his sweaty skin.
"What were you doing all night?" Nick mumbled his mouth curved into a smirk when Connor looked away his cheeks flushed lightly.
"I was watching Stargate; I'm not usually this tired but..." He trailed off when the door clicked and Jenny slinked into the room her eyes bright and playful, a smirk lifted against her mouth and Connor watched Nick's eyes change from interested to not interested in the bat of an eyelid. "I'll let you get on with your work then, professor Cutter." Connor whispered softly pushing himself from the chair when Cutter nodded curtly.
"Connor, I need that report by the end of the week, its important." Nick shouted when Connor clicked open the door, a soft smile graced the young students mouth before pulling the door too.
Stephen had been waiting for his moment pretty much the entire day, he'd stood silently in the ARC main room watching idle members of staff walk in and out of various rooms, listened to Lester complain because he wasn't doing anything, monitored Abby checking in on Cutters office every twenty minutes when she thought nobody was looking.
Then at last Connor pulled Cutters office door too and began walking down the corridor right into Stephen's trap. He didn't really understand why he did it. But with Stephen everything seemed to be made into a game, or his own personal challenge, his challenge since Abby had suggested it was to kiss Connor at every chance he managed to get without being caught by anyone except her.
He of course rose to the challenge happily, shaking her hand with his eyes silently.
"Connor," Stephen whispered into the student's ear when he collapsed into the ADD's chair, his eyes quickly darting from each screen, fingers tapping lightly at the keys ever so often and his back stiffened when Stephen's warm mouth ghosted over the shell of his ear.
"I'm really busy right now, Stephen." Connor mumbled softly, nipping his lower lip when Stephen's hand fell lightly against his thigh, Abby lifted her eyes when a small yelp passed through the student's mouth, her mouth like Stephen's curled into a smirk. "Really busy," He whispered softly, nibbling again at his lower lip when Stephen's fingers traced the threads of his jeans and a strangled grunt pushed through Connor's vocals.
"So am I," Stephen purred his eyes slipped in his sockets to land against Abby before nipping at the tender skin of Connor's ear affectionately.
"You're never busy," Connor whispered softly his eyes fluttered and his head tipped back against the chair giving Stephen the chance to capture his mouth in a soft kiss, Connor's eyes widened and his head snapped back against the screen quickly his fingers tapping desperately at the keys and his cheeks flooded with a dark mahogany colour. "What was that for?" He mumbled embarrassed when Stephen removed his hand and pressed his hands against the back of his lover's chair, gentle blue eyes skipping over the same screens that laminated over Connor's delicately strong features.
"I thought we went through this? I don't need a reason to kiss you Connor, I just do it." Stephen whispered playfully again his mouth pressed slow kisses along the student's jaw line affectionately.
"Yeah but we also went through the concept of not telling people." Connor mumbled under his breath, taking his fingers away from the keys momentarily and relaxing in his lover's gentle presence.
"It's not like anyone is watching us Connor, I told you last week, I want to kiss you and tell you I love you in the middle of the day for no reason apart from the obvious fact that I am majorly head over heels in love with you." Stephen muttered playfully a bright smile slipped against his features when Connor passed out a small giggle, the blush faded from his cheeks.
"Stephen, I really need to do this, Cutter need's it by the end of the week and I've already had it three days." Connor mumbled softly his eyes again fluttered and a tired yawn pushed past his lips.
"You're tired." Stephen stated suddenly waiting until the room had emptied completely before draping his arms to Connor's neck, chin resting in the joint between the younger's neck and shoulder, Connor mumbled softly in the back of his throat quickly checking that the room was indeed empty before nuzzling his nose against Stephen's cheek contently.
"I love you," Connor whispered softly, before pulling away from Stephen when Lester waltz into the room, his hard beady eyes scowling down at the words of his paper work, taking no notice of Connor's loud tapping and Stephen idly spinning the screwdriver between his fingers.

Stephen grinned pressing the palm of his hand against Connor's shoulder pushing the younger harder against his side, large playful brown eyes had fluttered shut the minute he curled against Stephen's hard muscular chest, one hand lay against the lab tech's stomach curling his fingers into the soft fabric of Stephen's grey shirt, the TV buzzed in the background and his mouth parted in small gently breaths.
He'd fallen asleep almost instantly, with Stephen usually being asleep at the same time as Connor he never usually had the chance to witness how they became tangled against each other, with hands lying here there and ever where against his chest, now, he understood Connor's deep desire to cuddle against Stephen, the soft content nuzzles of his nose into the older man's chest or neck, the soft relaxed breaths.
Working with Animals Stephen took his observation as trust, it was like with most household animals they only shown affection when they trusted the owner and Stephen was glad to know that Connor trusted him enough to sleep in his presence, the time that he was most venerable at.
His fingers stroked slowly against the exposed skin of Connor's shoulder and his mouth fell against the student's hair to place a soft kiss. A smile dragged against his feature's before lazily flicking through the channels careful to avoid waking his lover.
