Disclaimer: I don't, nor have I ever owned Jack Sparrow or James Norrington. I would like to own them because then I could make them do things… I also don't own the poem I'm using as an intro and I am not making money off this.
For: Shree because she rocks my socks off.
He woke with a smile across his face. James had had the most amazing dream. Wait, what? No, not amazing! Bad dream! But still, James could not stop the smile on his face. He could almost taste Jack on his lips, could almost feel his rough hands across his skin, could almost feel him trailing kisses up and down his neck. It had been one of the most vivid dreams James had had about the pirate and it was because of that that he was smiling.
The warm sun streamed in through a window. Where was he anyway? Laying there on his side, James felt too comfortable to move. He must have rented a room when he was drunk. That's normally where he ended up in the morning. He closed his eyes happily. Then he felt a warm arm around his waist.
"Morning, luv," came a deep purring voice. James smiled as he felt rough kisses against his neck. "You have fun last night?"
James moaned in reply and turned around to smile at Jack. Wait, Jack! It wasn't a dream? He lay there in stunned silence for a moment, his mouth half open. Jack smirked and pulled the other man against him, taking advantage of his open mouth to kiss him passionately. James kissed back without really thinking. He dug his fingers into that wonderful smelling hair of Jack's. This seemed to encourage Jack who rubbed his hand up and down James' back. "Love you, Jamesy." Jack murmured against his lover's lips.
That was what snapped James out of it. He pulled quickly away from the Pirate and stood up a little too quickly. He tripped and brought the sheets with him. He hadn't been dreaming. He had really just…. With Jack Sparrow… with a MAN! He was going to faint. He was going to die. What in the hell had he been thinking! Damn liquor!
"James?" Jack sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. "Aren't you sober yet?"
"You—You took advantage of me!" James screamed the words.
Jack looked extremely confused and a little hurt. "I seem to recall you doing some… 'advancing' last night as well, mate."
"I was drunk! I didn't know what the hell I was doing! I can't believe this!" He stood up and looked around. He had to get out of here quick. Where had he thrown his shirt?
Jack stood up quickly and watched James. "Just calm down, luv."
"Calm down! I just had spent the night with a pirate!"
"And loved every minute of it!" Jack pinned James against the wall in much the same way he had the night before. "I was that oh so lovely grin when you woke up." His eyes went to James' lips. "You should smile more often."
"Get off me," but again James' voice betrayed him and came out as a whisper.
"No," Jack replied. He rubbed his cheek against James'. "We both know this wasn't some game. It's us. What we want. Admit it."
James shoved Jack off of him and glared at him. Now Jack really did look hurt. He stood there, watching as James found and put on all his clothes then stormed out of the room. Then, Jack sat on the bed and put his head in his hands. Damn Norrington was breaking his heart here! After everything he'd gone through to get that man in bed and now he was running off? He had never picked James as a love-'em-and-leave-'em type. "No," Jack said firmly. "Not gonna let you get away with this, Mate. Already made up my mind, see. Already decided that you are mine." But how to get him? Jack thought it might be time to pay a little visit to a certain Mr. and Mrs. Turner.
