Why this must be read:
Martin is so very awkward. If there's a way to mess up he'll find it. It's kind of endearing though.
I love this one because you can just see Martin saying and being so very, very awkward.
Written for a prompt on the kink meme, Warsaw, has a terribly awkward Martin, an awkwardness translator Douglas, and a happy, happy ending.
Excerpt:
Once seen, it could not be unseen: Captain Crieff, mid-snog. Juicy, wet, arse-groping snog.
Douglas cleared his throat, then cleared it again, louder, when the young couple failed to notice. Martin looked up and instantly blushed a brilliant red. He shoved the other man away from him slightly.
"Hey! Private property," the other man said. He kept his arms around Martin.
"I did knock. The door opened of its own volition."
"It's Douglas, from work, come to collect me, I'd better--" Martin extricated himself from his lover's arms and hurried toward Douglas.
"Hat, Martin," Douglas said, rather enjoying himself. Martin clapped his hands to his head.
"Here, baby. Have a good flight." The man picked Martin's captaining hat up from the table behind him and set it on Martin's head with a kiss to his nose. Ah, young love. Sickening. "And I'm Tom," he said to Douglas. "Nice to finally meet you."
"Astounding to find you exist," Douglas said. "Come along, Captain, your chariot is double parked."
