Fuck Buddies
By day they were co-workers. They worked well together and had an odd office chemistry that most didn't understand. But at night they made an odder couple. Normally she would call on him and he would answer.
Quinn lay back in bed remembering the first time it happened. It wad a complete accident, she had come to visit him but he hadn't wanted to see her. He already struggled with his conflicting feelings about her.
They argued until she got too close. He grabbed her to push her away but once he felt the soft flesh yield under his fingertips he gave himself over to her pleasure.
It was his pleasure too.
Now they were both at a critical point. Did they want to make more of their sordid affairs or leave them to the darkness of expensive hotel rooms.
"Huck..." Quinn said in the darkness.
"Yeah..."
"What are we doing?" Quinn asked, the question struck fear in Huck's tattered heart. What could that question mean? Was she having doubts about their situation or did she want more. If it was the latter then how much more did she want?
"Sleeping."
"Don't be a smartass."
"Don't ask questions you don't want an answer to." Huck heard her gasp and felt the bed dip under her weight. "Quinn wait..." He saw her begin to move around their rented room quickly.
"If this is just sex then say so but don't be an..." She growled loudly as she searched for her clothes in a jumbled pile. The words were stuck in his throat. It was so much more than sex with her.
Quinn's thoughts on their relationship shifted. For the past six months they had been playing this erotic game of tag. Some nights he would divulge little tidbits of information about himself. That had to mean something right? Was she just looking too deeply into things? If he were a different man maybe he would come out and say it.
"What's going on with you and Huck?" Olivia asked after storming into her office, it had been a full month since she stormed out and she thought she was hiding her emotions pretty well. However, Olivia Pope exploited lies and facades for a living. Of course she saw through it. "Huck has a life that we're not apart of. You can't pry or question him."
"I understand." She said quickly and waited for Olivia to leave before breaking two of Olivia's unwritten rules. She locked her door and cried, it was silent with few sniffles but she had done it and as soon as she stepped out of her office Huck was standing there.
"You were crying."
"I was not!" she exclaimed.
"And you locked your door."
"I did not."
"You're lying to me, Quinn. I don't like being lied to." He said, his hazel eyes read her quickly as if she was a piece of rudimentary code.
"What are you going to do about it? Spank me?" She scoffed.
"How could I do that when you haven't let me touch you in over a month?" Quinn gasped, he had never openly spoken about their agreement and it surprised her to hear him throw it back at her. It brought forth memories of them in nameless hotel rooms doing unspeakable things. "I'm sorry I-"
"You wouldn't even talk about-" Huck shoved her backwards into her office and closed the door. "Huck we had an arrangement and when I tried to see where it was going you made it clear that all we were was fuck buddies."
"Quinn I-"
"No you don't get to just smooth things over-" he backed her up into the desk, her large eyes stayed on him.
"We are not fuck buddies. I care about you and I was..." He looked away, he had seemed so strong and powerful but now he reverted into that small nervous man she knew long ago. "I was scared."
"Why were you scared?" she asked, she was surprised.
"I don't want to lose you, and I miss you..." Quinn leaned against the desk as she studied him. He was being honest and she knew that if she turned him away he would be broken.
"I've missed you too." He released the breath he had been holding and flashed a lopsided grin. It was as close to an apology as either of them could get before their mouths met and their hands began to roam.
Huck had never been so excited to touch her. He removed each layer of clothes with ease and she did the same to his own. His hands glided along her soft skin missing the way she felt under his fingertips, he lowered her body onto the floor and reveled in the pain as she dug her nails into his back.
When he slid into her body she felt warm like home. He covered his mouth with her own to swallow her moans. She tasted so sweet and he truly missed this closeness.
"Quinn..." he said afterward, his chest heaved up and down as he lay beside her.
"Yeah..."
"I love you..."
"I know." She said while looking at him, and the wide open look of love left him speechless on her office floor. How many times had she looked at him that way and he simply passed it off as an over-caffeinated smile? Too many.
She was an odd woman to love him.
He was an odd man as well and they made such an oddly well matched couple as they lay next to each other with intertwined hands on her office floor.
Author's Note: My laptop is down and I did this short bit from my phone so sorry for the errors. Work has kept me very busy but I'm so excited for the show to be coming back in less than two weeks!
