2/2

It had been a game they used to play, back at the Academy. She'd clamber into bed with him on nights when she couldn't sleep, tuck them both tightly under his regulation single blanket, and attach herself to his side. The first night she'd done it, he'd been completely taken aback, hadn't known quite what to do or say, how to lay, where to touch her. But her wandering fingers and bright eyes had brushed away any unease he felt with her unspoken challenge in the dark.

So they'd lay together, a touch, a stroke, a caress, each trying to get the other to the breaking point, the point where they'd just give in and do something about it, and each trying to resist the temptation of being the one to break.

Neither of them were good losers, so they always ended up in Stalemate.

It may have been the strangest game he'd ever played with anyone, trying to see how much you could turn each other on without actually doing anything about it, but it seemed to fit them somehow, and it never made anything awkward, in fact, a lot of the time it worked to relieve whatever tension had worked up between them.

“Kara.” He said again, more forcefully this time, the backs of his fingertips brushing down the length of her arm.

“Sshh.” She admonished with a finger laid sloppily against his lips, and a scrunched brow above tightly shut eyes. “Go to sleep.” As if her other hand wasn't drawing slow, illegible patterns on his hip, as if her right thigh weren't moving incrementally every four and a half seconds, back and forth, back and forth along the length of his groin.

“I'm trying.” He protested, squeezing her leg between his knees, the tension in his thigh muscles aimed for that warm haven at the juncture of her thighs. Her breath hitched a little and he smirked at his tiny victory. “It's just a little...” he trailed off, not really wanting to voice what he had been about to say.

He felt her eyes open as she regarded him gleefully, could see the white flash of her teeth as she grinned in the dark and bit back a giggle.

“Hard?” The giggle erupted from her in a short sharp burst, and then she pressed her lips tightly together to restrain the rest.

He sighed heavily and half groaned a laugh of his own. He rolled over to face her, trapping her legs between his own and nestling her head into the crook of his elbow, tucking the blanket back around both of them in their readjusted positions.

“Goodnight Kara.” He sighed again, trying to convey a sense of finality, hoping she'd pick up on it.

“Night Lee.” She murmured, ran her big toe along the curve of his arched foot, and then settled into the comfort of him. He cracked one eye to see if she was planning anything else, but was met only with the prevailing warmth of her serene smile as she drifted into dreaming.

I also have a prompt, I basically think someone should write an extended version of that scene from Final Cut where they're in the bunk room getting dressed and snarking about Tigh and poetry and generally being adorable happy pilots, but at the same time parenty pilots (Kara shushing Kat is probably one of my favourite things in that whole episode, because its something you never get to see from her, is her being in charge in that way, the every day, responsible way where she has to make sure people are doing ok). I would just like more of that scene in my life really. Someone? Yes?

“Kara.” He breathed, it was meant to be a warning. It sounded more like a prayer.

Awwwwww, super cute and super duper sexy! I love it!

Thank you :) Your icon is made of awesome!

I liked that line too! And the game you've described is so totally Kara :)

Hmm. Now I've got the Final Cut idea in my head. Perhaps.

Thanks :) It's totally her kind of game, and probably not really a game to her at all, but I enjoyed writing it.

I also enjoyed the fact that you filled my prompt, which will be dealt with momentarily, further down the page :D

such a lovely commentfic!

i was just watching that episode today...and replaying those scenes over and over and over and over...LOVE that ep so much. there's so much of them working perfectly together and taking care of each other and the nuggets (love that part where kara's about to lay the camera guy out and lee is all "just walk away" with his hand on her back SQUEE) in addition to the cute fun times. i am going to think on this prompt for a bit...not sure if i'll have time to write it soon so someone else is totally welcome to snag it, but i will think about it. and i agree, there needs to be more adorably happy parenty piloty awesomeness.

Thank you!

Every interaction they have in that episode is just fantastic, and I love it because it does, in a lot of ways, what the documentary was there to do, which was show these people in their everyday kinds of situations, instead of just the big drama moments, and I liked that a lot.

"someone else is totally welcome to snag it"

You know, more than one person could write the prompt and I would probably be ok with it, I mean I'm not certain I'd be ok with it, but I'm almost there :)

great fic. they are happy pilots in a very strange way.
and a great addition to one of my favorite times for them.

Re: 2/2

thank you :) I think the strange ways are the only ways they ever really got to be happy, which, while sad, at least makes them unique as a pairing :)

I love them in those episodes, its like, everything I love about pilots is in there.
