Everybody Falls in Love!

[apple_pi]

Listen, flist, I'm going to tell you a secret:

I'm a big fat mushy sappy ROMANTIC.

There, I said it! So I think I should try the Everybody Falls in Love meme (as gacked from sunsetmog). Give me a pair (or a trio, or a foursome *eyes SGA*) and I will pick some and tell you how they fall in love

"But I thought," Sheppard said, and for just a second, Rodney saw confusion on his face, and hurt, and then his expressions slammed closed. "Never mind," John said. He took a step back.

Rodney's mouth was a little warm where Sheppard had kissed him. He hadn't meant to react the way he had - Sheppard had taken him by surprise. "Wait," Rodney said.

"No, seriously," Sheppard said - he sounded angry, and he was scowling at Rodney, or rather, at the railing over Rodney's shoulder - "never mind." He turned on his heel.

Rodney almost let him go - Sheppard could move fast - but in about a millisecond he processed a few things:

1. Sheppard's face was hot red.
2. The hair on the back of Rodney's neck was standing on end - he felt electrified.
3. The kiss had been good.

Rodney's hand shot out and caught at Sheppard's jacket sleeve. Sheppard tried to jerk his arm away, face resolutely turned to the door, but Rodney clutched the leather; it was stiff in his grip.

"Come here," Rodney said.

Sheppard stopped moving. "I don't think so," he said. He sounded dangerous - voice calm and hard - but now his ears were red, too.

"No, you just don't think," Rodney said. He pulled, and Sheppard dug in his heels. Rodney huffed - quietly - and stepped in. "I just wasn't expecting - that," Rodney said. "Okay? I didn't mean it."

Sheppard shot a narrow look at him, sidewise. "Forget it, okay?" he said. It wasn't much of a request. Sort of a command, really, and one Rodney had no intention of following.

"I don't think so," Rodney said, and - keeping his hand tight on Sheppard's sleeve - Rodney stepped in front of him again and looked at him. Rodney wanted to say something - he had questions, oh boy, did he have questions - but one look at the mulish expression on Sheppard's face made him close his mouth again. Rodney swallowed, once, and spoke. "Just - shut up for a minute, okay?" he said (unnecessarily), and he closed his eyes.

And opened them again and looked at Sheppard's mouth, then up at his eyes, then Rodney closed his eyes and leaned in and kissed Sheppard: awkward and tentative and just - Sheppard's lips were stiff and unyielding - Rodney didn't stop. He kept his eyes closed and pressed his mouth to Sheppard's gently, again and again. Sheppard's mouth softened - his lips were so soft - and he sighed, and then he parted his lips, and oh man, that was better. Rodney was still clutching his sleeve, and now his other hand found its way to the back of Sheppard's head, buried in his thick, soft hair, and Sheppard's hands were on Rodney's shoulders, somehow, and oh, wow, that was a tongue - and - there were - oh - tongues, and teeth, and lips, and - oh.

They stopped to breathe and if the hair on Rodney's neck had been standing up, before - well, now the hair all over his body was on end, alert and vibrating and excited and gleeful.

"Wow," Rodney said.

Sheppard rolled his eyes and sort of - huffed out a breath. He let his head fall onto Rodney's shoulder and Rodney could feel his sigh, warm through the cloth. "Yeah," he said. "Okay."

He lifted his head a minute later and they kissed some more - it was so good, Rodney was really glad he'd grabbed Sheppard's arm. When they stopped, Sheppard was looking at him.

"What?" Rodney said. "You just - you took me by surprise with that first one."

Sheppard slapped the back of his head.

"Ouch!" Rodney yelped. (But he didn't let go of Sheppard.)

"You didn't have to laugh," Sheppard said.

Rodney looked at Sheppard's messy hair, his faintly sardonic expression, his soft, red, wet mouth.

"Sorry," Rodney said sincerely.

"You didn't have to laugh," Sheppard said.

Ahahahahaahahah!! Oh, I was wondering what the hell it was that made John turn and leave the way he did!

The kiss made my toes curl though. Yum!

[apple_pi]

Hee, thank you! I just thought What would be the most horrifying reaction EVER and went from there. *g*

[apple_pi]

See, and I think Rodney's laugh was more of a "What???" kind of astonished laugh - not to be mean! He was just taken off guard. :-)

Sheppard rolled his eyes and sort of - huffed out a breath. He let his head fall onto Rodney's shoulder and Rodney could feel his sigh, warm through the cloth.
