That Which We Call a Rose, J/D, PG-13

I'm just going to go ahead and dedicate this one to [personal profile] jdjunkie. She'll know why.



That Which We Call a Rose

When Daniel flopped over onto his side with a contented sigh, Jack switched off the lamp and rolled to spoon up behind him, not wanting to lose all that wonderful warm, sticky contact. "Good, huh?"

"Best, maybe," Daniel said in a considering tone, followed by a yawn.

"Naw, best is yet to come, baby."

Daniel finished his yawn and there was utter silence.

Jack cleared his throat. "I'd like to take that back now."

"Um, no need. I just…didn't know we'd reached the endearments stage."

"Ah. And that particular…?"

"Well. It's not quite…"

"No. No."

"…what I would have expected."

There was another silence.

"So…"

"Oh, it's fine. It's…it's surprising how many endearments sort of fall into that category. Um, small, adorable…" Daniel's arm lifted as his hand made rotational gestures that Jack could just make out in the darkened room.

"Okay. You're hardly small."

"And rarely adorable."

Jack thought it was safer to merely grunt.

"And then of course there are all the food-related endearments. Cupcake, muffin."

Jack gave him a squeeze. "Stud muffin."

Daniel twisted his neck so Jack could see his teeth flashing white. "And there's the French chou. My little cabbage."

"Never got that one," Jack admitted. "My little zucchini."

"If you're going to talk about my zucchini, not so much with the little, please," Daniel said sleepily.

Jack kissed his shoulder. "Kumquat?"

"Mmm. Bisque."

Jack paused to consider that. "Bisque?" he asked doubtfully.

"I'm very fond of bisque. Hot…smooth…"

"Thick."

Daniel chuckled. "Creamy."

"Pureed." Jack enjoyed the way Daniel vibrated against him as he laughed. They lay together quietly after that, until Jack began to wonder if Daniel was actually asleep. "Maybe we should stay away from food."

Daniel's head moved. "You mean go back to small and…"

"Which you're not." Jack kissed Daniel's shoulder again.

"…adorable and cherished?"

Jack's breath caught in his throat. "Looks like my secret is out."

Daniel pressed Jack's palm to his chest and stroked the back of his hand. "Oh?"

Jack stretched his neck and nuzzled the damp skin below Daniel's ear. "I do."

"You do?"

"Yes." Jack drew back a few inches and dropped his head on Daniel's pillow. "Go to sleep."

Within three minutes, Daniel was boneless and snoring quietly.

Jack held on manfully for as long as he could, to get in a little more quality cherishing time, but ultimately the slow, warm, relentless tide of sleep caught him up, cradling him even as he cradled Daniel, and softly swept him away.

Awwww. I really was about to turn my computer off for the night, but this is going to send me to sleep with a goofy smile on my face. This exchange, in particular, made me sniggle extremely hard:
"Okay. You're hardly small."

"And rarely adorable."

Jack thought it was safer to merely grunt.


They are just so *good* and so are you.

"Looks like my secret is out."
Saying things like "baby" may lead to this, Jack. *lol*

What a lovely and heartwarming dialogue between the two of them. And I LOVE the atmosphere you create, so sleepy and so full of trust and understanding. Very, very nice!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I know exactly why and my smile is BIG and WIDE!

This is adorable, snuggly, warm, lovely and totally what I needed to see on my reading list this morning.

Jack's breath caught in his throat. "Looks like my secret is out." Jack, sweetie pie, it's no secret that you are totally a mushball over your SO. We've known it for years. You are outing yourself to no-one. Hee.

I love it. Thank you so much, my little chou fleur.

*mwah*

LOL! Really good voices. That should have been a canon scene. Great descriptions worked in there too.
