They hurried back to the apartment and then seemed to lose their courage. They stood in the bedroom self-consciously for a few moments that seemed to last a lot longer each waiting for the other to make the first move before Tim stepped up to Hadrian and kissed him passionately, wrapping his arms around him.
The kiss seemed to calm Hadrian's nerves as well as igniting his desire and he kissed back enthusiastically moving them both towards the bed.
Tim reached for the buttons on Hadrian's shirt and began to undo them, he stripped the shirt off Hades' shoulders only to have the sleeves catch at the cuffs.
Hadrian laughed slightly nervously and undid them slowly while Tim stepped back and kicking off his shoes, stripped off his own shirt and pants leaving him standing there in just his boxers. Hadrian copied him and they climbed into bed, Hadrian playing with the covers for a moment before leaving them down around his waist.
"Are you warm enough? I could turn up the heat" Tim offered.
"I'm fine" Hadrian replied leaning in to kiss Tim again. He pulled Tim close and Tim rolled them over so that Hadrian was lying on top of him. He could feel the younger man's arousal pressing into his thigh and moved slightly spreading his legs until their erections lined up together and began to slowly rock his hips. Hadrian moaned and tried to match Tim's movements. "Feels so good" he gasped.
"Feels amazing" Tim agreed, "Do you want to come like this or do you want me to use my hand?"
"Whatever just… I need…" Hadrian moaned. "I'm close…. Don't stop…"
Tim grasped Hadrian's hips and thrust faster and harder sending Hadrian over the edge.
"Tim" Hadrian cried as he came, Tim kissed him fiercely and came too.
"We're going to need more showers" Tim said as he caught his breath after collapsing beside Hadrian.
"I can't be bothered moving" Hadrian replied.
Tim climbed off the bed and disappeared into the bathroom. He stripped off and cleaned himself up returning to the bedroom with a hot flannel.
Hadrian watched Tim walk back into the room and blushed when Tim caught him checking him out.
Tim smiled and reached for Hadrian's boxers raising one eyebrow and waiting for permission before pulling them off.
Hadrian blushed furiously as Tim used the flannel to clean the semen off his crotch. Tim finished without speaking and returned the flannel to the bathroom before joining Hades in bed, pulling the quilt over them both and curling up into Hadrian's side. Hadrian turned to take Tim into his arms and they both dozed off.
This time when Hadrian woke up with his hand cupping Tim's arousal he smiled and kissed Tim awake before starting to gently explore.
Tim pushed the quilt off onto the floor and spread his legs propping himself up on his elbows to watch what Hadrian was doing. Hadrian touched Tim the way he liked to be touched, carefully cataloguing his reactions to learn what Tim liked best.
"Stop teasing" Tim begged.
Hadrian grinned and leaned in to kiss Tim as he started to seriously try to get Tim off. It didn't take long and Tim's cry was muffled by Hadrian's kiss. Hadrian fetched the flannel and rinsed it in hot water before coming back to the bedroom to clean up Tim, finding it much less embarrassing to be the one taking care of his lover. He joined Tim on the bed again snuggling in and talking for a while before Tim wrapped his hand around Hadrian's growing erection and gently pumped him to completion.
"That feels so different from doing it myself" Hadrian whispered.
"Yeah" Tim agreed. "Do you want me to get the cloth to clean up?"
"I think I really do need a shower this time" Hadrian said, getting up reluctantly.
"Want some company or do you need some time alone?" Tim asked watching his lover's reaction carefully.
Hadrian smiled "I'll wash your back" he offered, blushing slightly but clearly keen to have Tim join him.
-o0o-
Over the next few weeks it seemed to the two of them that the universe, or at least their agencies, were conspiring to keep them apart. Tim got called in to work a case down in Norfolk and was gone a couple of days, when he returned after three back to back cases Hadrian was sent to South America after a tip there were British Nationals causing problems in the magical community down there. The tip didn't pan out, the trouble makers were young Muggleborn and half-blood wizards that had fled Britain early in the war. They could prove they had been in the area since 1996 and that they had nothing to do with any pureblood sympathisers and none of them were wanted for crimes in Britain. Hadrian helped with the raid then left the locals to deal with the culprits. He arrived home exhausted to an empty apartment and crashed. He was sound asleep when Tim called his cell and didn't answer.
Tim got home just after nine and didn't even think to check the bedroom, he heated up the last of the frozen meals Hadrian had made them and sat at his computer trying to lose himself in his game. He was worried that he hadn't heard from Hadrian and his imagination was in overdrive. He didn't doubt Hades would have called him if he could and was imagining one horrific situation after another why he hadn't. The problem was while Tim found it amusing how ignorant Hadrian was with technology he didn't understand that there was a whole culture out there that didn't use even landline telephones and the South American wizarding community was one of them. It was nearly one in the morning before Tim reluctantly powered down his computer and headed to bed expecting another restless night filled with nightmares. He stopped in shock as he turned the light on and saw the man sprawled on the bed. Hadrian looked thinner and was badly in need of a shave and a haircut but Tim had never seen a more welcome sight in his bed. He stripped off his clothes and rolled Hades over to one side a bit so he could climb in behind him wrapping his arms around his lover, slightly disappointed that Hadrian didn't even stir.
Tim and Hadrian both woke reluctantly when Tim's alarm went off.
"Urggh" Hadrian muttered.
"Welcome back" Tim said sleepily kissing his cheek. "Do you have work today?"
"No they don't know I'm back yet. I suppose I should go in but I really need more sleep before I could safely go out in the field" Hadrian replied.
"Okay then I'll leave you to sleep" Tim said smiling.
Tim got into the shower and Hadrian got up to make them both some breakfast, making Tim's into a wrap he could eat while driving.
"You didn't have to get up. I could have made myself breakfast" Tim said kissing Hadrian as he came into the kitchen.
"I need to eat too I haven't eaten since about eleven o'clock yesterday morning this time" Hadrian said. "Besides I saw the state of the fridge and freezer, you would have grabbed takeout for breakfast."
"I meant to shop last night" Tim said guiltily. "I'm sorry I've eaten all the spare meals you put away."
Hadrian smiled. "That's what I made them for. I'll shop today, call me if you're not going to be home for dinner" Hadrian said.
"Are you going away again?" Tim asked, wondering if that's why Hades had got up to have breakfast with him in spite of still being so tired.
"Not that I know of. I haven't heard of any chat locating more of the terrorists. This latest op was a wash out. We caught the bad guys but it wasn't any of my lot so I left the locals to deal with them. It could be months before more information surfaces or it could be tomorrow" Hadrian replied. "This is only the second time I've been pulled away from local duties since I arrived."
"We wrapped up a case yesterday, so hopefully today will be about finishing the reports and catching up on the paperwork" Tim said. "I have to go. I'll ring you if we catch another case."
Hadrian kissed Tim goodbye, finished his breakfast and went back to bed. He woke early afternoon and went upstairs where he turned time back to just after Tim left for work. He went to the market and bought groceries before starting to make several casseroles to stock up the freezer again, pleased that he'd been able to look after Tim like that even while he was away. 'I'm taking after Aunt Petunia, showing caring through feeding him' he thought amused. The thought didn't stop him from making the meals but it did make him careful to make them as healthy as they could be.
-o0o-
Tim turned down drinks out with his team to come home early that night, arousing Tony's suspicions.
"Got a hot date with some honey you haven't told us about?" he asked loudly.
"No" Tim replied a little guilty at denying Hadrian like that.
"Ho ho! There's definitely someone. Come on Tim. Spill" Tony chortled.
"I'm not in the mood to go out. I'm going home to eat dinner and have an early night. I have a new book I want to read" Tim replied.
"Oh what are you reading?" Ziva asked interestedly.
"Probably 'At first sight'" Tony said, derisively.
"The new Michael Connelly 'The Lincoln Lawyer'" Tim replied to Ziva, ignoring Tony.
"I notice it was you not Tim who knew the name of the new Nicholas Sparks novel, Tony" Ziva insinuated teasingly.
"What no I don't read that. I was talking to a girl in the coffee shop who'd just bought it" Tony protested.
"And she turned you down so she could go home and read it" Ziva said laughing.
"Just come for one drink, McAntisocial, and then you can go home and play Elf Lord to your hearts content" Tony coaxed.
"No Tony I don't want to go" Tim replied firmly. "I'm going home. I haven't been sleeping well and I don't think going out drinking is a good idea if I want to be at my best for work tomorrow."
"Good thinking McGee, Tony don't forget you have work tomorrow too. Now get out of here before I find more work for you" Gibbs said.
Tony gave Tim a dirty look which Tim ignored as he collected his things and hurried to his car.
-o0o-
Hadrian was still in the kitchen when Tim arrived home.
"Have you been cooking all day?" Tim asked laughing when he saw the pile of dishes waiting to be washed. He wrapped his arms around Hadrian who leaned back into his embrace tipping his head back onto Tim's shoulder and turning his head for a kiss.
"Just the afternoon. I made a couple of casseroles for the freezer and vegetable lasagne for dinner tonight" Hadrian said.
"You should have been resting" Tim protested.
"Cooking is relaxing to me. If it makes you feel any better, I've left you the dishes" Hadrian said laughing.
Tim chuckled ruefully. "Okay" he agreed.
Hadrian slid the lasagne into the oven and set the timer. "We have just over an hour before dinner's ready" he said moving back into Tim's arms.
Tim led him into the bedroom and started kissing him while he removed his clothes. Hadrian responded enthusiastically pulling Tim's clothes off as they headed towards the bed. They fell on it still kissing and touching, Tim wrapped his hand around both their erections and Hadrian's hand joined him as they thrust against each other while they pumped their hands. Neither lasted long crying out into each other's mouths as their kiss continued. Neither let go until they were almost too sensitive to continue. Their kisses became more languid and loving than passionate each hungry to spend time together showing each other how much they loved and missed them. Their excitement was beginning to rise again when the kitchen timer went off. Hadrian was in favour of ignoring it but Tim pointed out that he'd spent too long preparing the meal to let it go to waste now and it would only take a minute to pull it out of the oven so it didn't burn and they could eat it later.
It was much later that they reheated the meal, sitting in their pyjama pants smiling at each other almost goofily and laughing together at the lamest jokes. In spite of his teasing Hadrian tried to assist with cleaning up the kitchen. Tim tried to stop him but Hadrian pointed out that he'd rather be in here with him and they'd finish faster if they worked together so Tim let him dry the dishes. They fell back into bed and snuggled together to sleep.
-o0o-
The next morning they fell back into their old routine as if nothing had changed between them. Hadrian made breakfast burritos for them to eat while Tim drove then to the Navy yard. Hadrian checked back in with Auror Clancy who welcomed him back and gave him his duty schedule for the next month. He also checked in at school with a magically produced medical certificate to explain his absence and collected the make-up work for each of his subjects then used his time turner to turn back the day and go to visit Teddy. Unusually he arrived home after Tim and the older man had started dinner. "Hey" Hadrian said coming up behind him and kissing him gently once Tim had laid down the knife.
How was your day?" Tim asked.
"Long" Hadrian replied truthfully. "Working for two different agencies sucks. I have so much work to catch up on."
"At least you know the FBI missed your contributions" Tim commiserated. "Did your team welcome you back?"
"Clancy did, I'm in New York next Wednesday and possibly Thursday to testify against those gang members who attacked that sailor and his family" Hadrian told him.
"We weren't notified" Tim said frowning a little.
"I was first into the house, caught them red-handed torturing the sailor and his wife. It's a pretty airtight case" Hadrian made excuses knowing the suspects were being tried through the wizarding courts and the mundane testimony from NCIS wouldn't be needed or possible.
"That's come to trial pretty quickly" Tim commented.
Hadrian shrugged. "I guess" he said noncommittally. The wizarding courts were quicker than the muggle courts because the use of veritaserum got at the truth and made all the minor witnesses redundant.
"This is good" Hadrian said tasting the food Tim had made.
"Don't sound so surprised" Tim replied.
"It's the most complicated meal I've seen you make" Hadrian said. In spite of Hadrian's teasing Tim did cook a couple of nights a week but it was usually simple food like steak and salads or chops and veggies.
"I had more time, and this is an old recipe of my grandmother's" Tim said.
"How is Penny?" Hadrian asked. "And the rest of the family?"
"Fine. Sarah's busy with her literature term paper, Penny's in Turkey this week. But this is a recipe from my other grandmother. She passes away a couple of years ago but she gave me a copy of the recipes of my favourite foods when I first moved into my own apartment."
Hadrian smiled. "That's nice."
"You never speak of your grandparents" Tim said hesitantly.
"I never met any of them. Mum's parent's died a couple of months before I was born and Dad's when he was nineteen" Hadrian said not at all upset by the subject. "I don't really know much about them. Though some of the things I cook are probably recipes from Mum's Mum. Petunia had a handwritten book of recipes that weren't in her handwriting."
"How did they die?" Tim asked.
"Mum's parents were killed in a car accident, hit by a drunk driver. And Dad was a very late in life baby, his parents died of natural causes. They caught a nasty illness that turned into pneumonia" Hadrian replied. "From what I could gather from the family tree the Potter's have a habit of dying young."
"A habit you'll have to break" Tim said seriously.
Hadrian shrugged. "I don't have the safest job" he replied thinking about but not mentioning how he'd already died during the battle of Hogwarts.
They snuggled up together catching up on episodes of a program they'd been watching before Hadrian had gone on assignment and Tim had recorded for him. Before long the TV was being ignored in favour of each other and they both fell asleep with satisfied smiles.
-o0o-
"How was your pastry course?" Tim asked when Tim arrived home a few weeks later. Hadrian had signed up for the Saturday class knowing Tim needed the time to finish his latest book by his publishers' deadline.
Hadrian handed over a sweet pastry for Tim to try. "Mmm" Tim moaned appreciatively. "So you learned to make great pastries but did you enjoy it?"
"Yes. It was interesting. I shared a table with Ziva David" Hadrian replied.
"Ziva?" Tim asked warily.
"Yes we mostly talked books and recipes. She was quite reticent about what she did for a living" Hadrian replied. "She was surprisingly feminine compared to your description."
"Did you tell her you knew me?" Tim asked.
"We'll no. I'd already mentioned a boyfriend who needed time alone to write before she introduced herself so I didn't think you'd want me to" Hadrian replied. "Once I knew who she was I told her my boyfriend was writing his doctoral thesis."
Tim hugged his lover, "Thanks, I'm sorry I know you hate lying" he said.
"I don't mind lying when I have to" Hadrian replied kissing Tim reassuringly.
"I'm sorry you had to today when you didn't think you would. Did you like Ziva?" Tim asked.
"I resented her being there and making me lie and I didn't expect to but yes, she had a light hand with the pastry and didn't appear to lose her temper when things didn't work out, leaving the way she goes along with how Tony treats you, I could like her. Then again, I could have liked Tony too if he didn't bully you the way he does" Hadrian replied softly. "Gibbs was harder to like but then he was already angry before I met him so I'll reserve judgement on that."
"Are you going back next week?" Tim asked.
"I think I will if I'm not working" Hadrian replied. "There's a Thai cooking class I'd like to do one day too, when you're busy."
-o0o-
It took several weeks for Tim and Hadrian to move beyond hand jobs and frottage but in the end it wasn't a well thought out and discussed decision to take things to the next level or who would take which role in their lovemaking.
One minute they were lying naked kissing and using their hands to get each other off and the next Hadrian was begging Tim to fuck him.
"Are you sure?" Tim asked wide eyed.
"I'm sure, I want to feel you inside me" Hadrian said certainly. "I'm ready."
Tim added another finger to the two he already was using to finger his lover stretching him further. He didn't want to risk hurting his smaller lover.
"Enough already" Hadrian moaned.
Tim pulled his fingers out making the smaller man whine in frustration and reached up to the drawer he'd kept the condoms. He had to fish around for a moment as they'd been pushed to the back because it had been so long since he'd needed them. He ripped it open, swearing as he noticed the use by date. "Shit"
"What's wrong?" Hadrian asked trying to sit up.
"They're expired" Tim replied blushing. He felt embarrassed that he hadn't thought to check earlier, and was glad that this was one humiliation that Tony wouldn't ever find out about.
"So, we're both clean. If it breaks it breaks. We only need it to reduce the mess anyway, grab an old towel or something" Hadrian said practically.
"Tim grinned and lubed up his cock before carefully rolling the condom into place and adding another layer of lube. He pushed Hadrian back down and hooked his arms under Hadrian's thighs raising them to his shoulders. "Is that okay?" he asked.
"Yeah" Hadrian said eagerly.
"This might hurt a bit" Tim warned as he placed his tip at Hadrian's entrance.
"I don't care. I want this" Hadrian encouraged him thrusting his hips upwards forcing the head of Tim's penis inside him. Tim was right it hurt.
"Hold still and let me take it slow" Tim ordered. "I don't want to harm you." He held Hadrian's hips down as he slid slowly inside. "Oh God you're tight" he moaned. "Are you okay?"
Hadrian was trying hard not to show pain. "I'm fine, just give me a minute" he said trying to will his body to adjust to the intrusion.
Hadrian was a master at not showing when he was hurting, wincing or reacting only encouraged his cousin to hit harder, and he used his skills to maximum value. The pain started to fade and Hadrian pulled Tim down into a kiss. Tim kissed him passionately and began to gently rock his hips.
"Oh God I'm close" Tim moaned, "I don't think I can hold off much longer." He reached between them and began working Hades' erection but quickly lost focus and rhythm as his orgasm hit bathing Hadrian's insides with hot fluid before collapsing on
"I'm sorry" Tim said a moment later as he roused himself and began moving his hand on Hadrian's still rock hard erection.
"Tss fine" Hadrian grunted before coming with a cry. "Didn't expect the first time to be great" he admitted panting.
-o0o-
Hadrian returned from his visit to his godson and collapsed on the rarely used bed in his apartment. Taking the second international portkeys in the same day always left him feeling dizzy and sick, and the stress of being in England where he could be discovered by anyone who happened to visit Andi wore him down. On top of this he was beginning to worry more and more about Andi's health and Teddy's wellbeing. He knew that Andi was doing her best to bring up her grandson and was doing a phenomenal job as far as Teddy's manners, physical health and education were concerned. But Teddy had become increasingly quiet over the last few months and his increasing excitement to going out in the muggle world with him, even if it meant swallowing the disgusting tasting potion to force his appearance to remain in one form, led Hadrian to believe he was rarely leaving the house other than when he visited.
Andi wasn't well and though she hadn't admitted it Hadrian, she was starting to believe that she wouldn't be able to care for Teddy much longer. He offered to help her move to America where there were many new and innovative developments in so many areas that he thought it possible their healers may also be able to help Andi. And even if they couldn't, living in America Hadrian would be able to spend a couple of hours every day with Teddy.
Andi didn't want to leave her home though and Hadrian worried as her health seemed to continue to decline. He tried to spend more time with them, visiting every four or five days instead of weekly and made Andi promise that she would call him if she needed help and promised to come no matter what time of day or night.
Tim listened contentedly as Hades described his day out with his godson. The detective in him noticed that Hades was sometimes choosing his words carefully (avoiding mentioning magic and the fact they'd gone to the London Zoo not the one here in Washington). He wondered why and hoped it wasn't that Hades was attracted to the child's godmother or someone else he regularly saw when visiting. He also wondered why Hades had never brought the boy to the house or invited him to go on one of these outings but rationalised that the grandmother might not approve of their relationship. Heaven knows he had no plans to introduce Hades to his own family. Hadrian would have liked to introduce Teddy to Tim but couldn't work out a way without telling him about magic that he could. Even if he got Andi to bring Teddy to him for the day instead of going there, the little boy was too little to understand the need for secrecy and too entrenched in the magical world not to bring up something about it during the day.
