Meme for Wins

[darkeyedresolve]

Since Most of my teams, Notre Dame not included, won this weekend, how about I share the love for a meme fill. And this one sorta comes from emeh, with some slight modifications.

pick a pairing from any of my fandoms/rpf and come up with a location and/or situation. i will then write between 50 and 250* words about the kiss that happened in that context

Sam Bradford clutched and unclutched his phone with nervous fingers, each time he thought about how stupid this had been. He breathed out some of his tension in a long breath, but he felt it still in his stomach. He shifted his tall body from his spot against the wall, waiting outside by diner by the team hotels. The night was warm, even in winter, which was odd for an Oklahoma boy like him, but he definitely liked going out at midnight in a t-shirt and jeans.

Would he really come though, would he show up like he said he would?

Sam felt like an idiot as he watched the number 12:00 flash on his cell phone. No sign, no message, it was just him standing out here in the dark. He ran one of his big hands into his curly hair, feeling a sharp cut down his insides. Why did he even bother with this a few days before the championship game?

"Fuckin-" Sam stopped himself as he looked over to the thud of foot steps.

Tim Tebow came running out of the shadows, looking super human in the street lights and shadows. He was grinning that big child smile as he slowed his powerful body, thicker than Bradford but not as tall. He had a slight red sheen to his cheeks, he must have run the entire way from the hotel.

"I'm sorry, it was harder to sneak out than I thought." Tebow rubbed the back of his thick neck, catching his breath.

"You've probably never snuck out have you?" Sam's frustrated expression had melted into his easy going look.

"Uh..." Timmy really gave it a thought,"I think maybe with my brothers once?"

"So you really okay with this?" Bradford tilted his head to really look into the face of the other Heisman winner.

"Okay with a date?" Tebow smiled, and it was always a big one, "I told you I was fine with it."

"And what about this?" Sam didn't think, just reacted, but putting a hand under Tebow's chin and tilting it up to meet his own.

Sam could feel the initial shock from the man's lips as they touched his own, and he was nervous too. After a moment, they both relaxed into it. Sam moved one of his long arms around Tebow's waist while the Florida quarterback put a strong arm around his shoulders.

At midnight, they were just two young men, as the darkness pulled away the fan bases, the football, the championship. They had a short time to just be themselves, and night time was the right time.

i really adore this a lot. there's a lot of emotion, a lot of anticipation and nervousness and sam's relief when tim actually shows up is nearly palpable and very, very lovely.

also, the last line? perfect.

I'm glad you liked it, I enjoy writing these two really and I just don't do it very often. You just gave me a good prompt and prior inspiration for it.

Thank you again.
