Hi...I've finally got around to updating. YAY!
I own nothing...
so just sit back relax...enjoy and review please.
Thank you for all the support, this story runs on reviews.
Morgan's startled awake by the warmth he feels.
Another body.
They're snuggled close as their body rises and falls with sleep.
He doesn't need a girl attached to him, expecting something he can't give. The sad thing is, he doesn't remember picking up a girl last let alone sleeping with her...
As he blinks, he tries to think of excuses he need to get out of whatever he did last night.
And then he realizes two things.
One: He didn't sleep with a girl.
Two: It's Reid nestled next to him.
And his body relaxes, as he enjoys the heat thrown off from Reid's skin. He hugs Reid closer.
Reid shifts, spooning against Morgan; Morgan presses his chin to the top of Reid's head loving the softness of his hair.
Morgan shutters. He likes Reid...in general.
His heart flutters at the internal acknowledgment. Feelings he's been trying to tamp down forever.
He likes Reid.
Reid yawns, rolling over to face Morgan.
"Ah!" Reid jerks as he fumbles out of the bed.
Morgan dies laughing as he scoots over to the edge to look down at a nonplussed genius sprawled out on the floor.
"Kid...you're high strung." Morgan gawfs as Reid scowls. Morgan lends him a hand, pulling him up off the floor.
He likes the way Reid looks so...disheveled in the morning...not as kempt as he's become of late. Reid rumples his hair as he straightens his crooked sleep pants. Morgan closes his eyes at the images of naughty going ons pop into his head...that is not the way you think of you straight best friends.
"Good morning to you too."Reid croaks.
"Good morning Pretty Boy." Morgan chuckles. "I'll go make some coffee." He pads out of the room. He laughs as Reid's face perks up at the mention.
…...…...…...
Reid hums quietly to himself as he stirs sugar into his coffee, third cup this morning, the first at work.
Morgan's coffee's better, he decides as he takes a sip.
The hairs raise on the back of Reid's neck.
Someone's watching.
No. Morgan's watching.
His stomach kicks as he turns.
"Want some?"Reid raises a brow as he offers Morgan the mug; a smile flirting on his lips.
Morgan gives Reid a small smile as he leans against the door frame. He bites his lip, nervously taking a breath.
"What,do I have something-" Reid brushes at his mouth.
Morgan frowns.
"No."
"Derek?" Reid's eyes flick to Morgan's mouth, staying there. Morgan shutters as Reid searches – for what?
His heart ticks in his throat.
"I-" his voice is gruff as he pushed off the wall.
"Salutations my sweets. My shining knights are wanted at the-round...table. Am I interrupting?" Garcia slows her roll. She kisses Morgan on the cheek and ruffles Reid's hair.
"No-" Morgan breaks his gaze from Reid. He turns and walks out of the room.
"What's up with my Chocolate Love Bunny?"Garcia's brows.
"I don't know." Reid says softly, shrugging his shoulders. He follows Garcia to the roundtable.
…...…...…...
There was before...and after.
Even before Carl, Derek had an inkling that he liked boys...
His eyes would wander over to Garett when they played football,traveling the flat plain of his chest as they played shirtless.
Hell, it was normal to get hard while rough housing, right?
The rubbing and touching and all...right?
So why did he get sick late at night when the thought of doing things with Garrett, or Zavon, or Two Bit got him harder than any girl could ever make him.
The thought would send him reeling in bliss and shame so bad. He swore to god he'd never do it again...but he always did.
And then Carl found him...picked him up out the gutter.
Derek told himself it was just payback...for all the dirty thoughts.
Paying back what was given; this was a duty, a way out.
All he had to do was bear it and he'd be free.
And then there was College...the late nights...drunken sloppy kisses, tangled limbs and hot shame to chase it down.
Trying to fix this swirl of emotions that he just didn't know what to do with.
Trying to erase the hurt and damage he's done.
So after a string of girls...women really, he'd allow himself to fool around with a guy...nothing serious.
Just open mouthed kissing and a bit of petting below the belt.
And there's now.
Reid's bringing to the surface emotions and feelings he thought he had a grip on. Thought he buried long ago.
But here they are...and he's drowning in them.
He's wanted Reid...physically and emotionally, for so long now, he can't remember when it all started.
Actually, that's a lie.
It started the day they met. Reid nervous and jumpy, wet behind the ears...
The teasing and joking...the touching.
Morgan never expect them to be friends, let alone get this close.
They sleep in same bed for heaven's sake.
It hurts to be this close; but he doesn't think he could ever walk away.
He's not gay...he's just appreciative of what he's got.
At least that's what he tells himself.
So...what'd you think?
