Title:  Stuck (1/4)
Author:  Me, eleanor_ariail
Genre:  Fluffy, funny, and porny, not necessarily in that order.
Rating:  Grown-up, for an explicitly awkward situation.
Summary:  It was supposed to have been a one-night stand.  One night is going to last a long time.
Notes:  This story was inspired by a really good WhoFic I read a while back, in which Time Lords normally 'get stuck'.  I can't remember the title now to give it credit, so if anyone knows what I'm talking about, please tell me!

Stuck.

“Oh, DG. That was amazing,” Glitch murmured into DG's shoulder, his body strewn across hers. DG was still catching her breath, so she merely nodded into his dark curls.

They were bundled up in DG's huge bed, in her room in the Ice Palace. The fire crackling in the corner hearth did little to take the evening chill from the room, but under their several quilts and blankets, the new lovers were quite warm enough.

Glitch wriggled a little, burrowing down further into the downy blankets and shifting some of his weight off DG.

“I wish I didn't have to leave tomorrow. Why can't the kingdom just take care of itself for once?” He pouted.

“Oh, Glitch, you have to go,” she pushed his face back so she could look at him, “Mother needs you in Finaqua, just like Az needs me here.”

“I know, but I just got you all to myself. I don't know when we'll see each other again,” he trailed off sadly.

DG pulled him close to her again, so he couldn't see her roll her eyes a little. “We knew when we started this tonight how it would have to end,” she said, trying to be sensitive. “And we'll be able to visit soon. We'll all be coming down there for the Spring Festival in a few months.”

Glitch propped up on his elbows, a look of shock on his face. “That's so long! I need you, DG,” he sighed and looked around, clearly taxing his half-brain. “Maybe I can just have my old office packed up and sent here, so I can decipher the notes without leaving you.”

DG panicked for a moment. It wasn't that she didn't like Glitch; no, he certainly held a special place in her heart as her first and best friend since she had arrived. And the sex would be really great, as tonight had proved. It was just that she had finally found the life she was meant to be leading, and there was still so much in the OZ she hadn't seen or done. She just didn't feel like she should have to be tied to anyone so thoroughly at this point in her life.

“No, that won't work. Remember, there were all sorts of traps and locks around your office. You're the only one who has a chance of getting to everything there.” She felt a guilty rush of relief as he frowned in resignation and settled down against her again.

“I guess you're right. Well, I'm making a trip back up here as soon as I can anyway. I'm sure I'll get a break in the work before long.”

DG patted his back, resigned, “That'll be nice, Glitch.” She really would miss him, now that she thought about it. They had become even closer over the past month. With peace in the OZ, Cain and Raw had left, but Glitch stayed behind, having no family and no home to return to. DG enjoyed having her original companion with her as she spent her days hiking and exploring the frozen northland, and spending so much time alone together had caused their friendship to flourish.

When they learned of their upcoming separation, they began to escalate their relationship. Kissing felt as natural as breathing to them, and when their last night together finally came, it was DG who insisted on sharing it with him. After all, she had reasoned, it had been quite a while since her last lover, and Glitch, well, who knew with him.

DG roused out of her thoughts, planning on asking him if he remembered being with any other women, but found that he was fast asleep, with just a little drool around his open mouth. She stifled a laugh, then wrapped her legs tighter around his and began to fall asleep herself.

Glitch awoke to the bright light of the sun reflecting off the ice outside. He lay perfectly still with his eyes shut for a moment, as he always did upon waking, so that he could collect his memories of the night before. He had woken up too many times in unpleasant situations with no idea what was going on, and he found that if he thought just a little, he could remember at least the day before.

Oh.

His eyes flew open as he remembered his current position. And how he had gotten there.

He saw that they had barely moved the entire night. DG was still firmly in his arms, and he realized with a blush that he was still firmly in her.

Never one to turn down a great opportunity, he pulled her closer to him and began kissing her face.

“Mmmm.... Glitch....” she began to moan in her sleep. She opened her eyes and looked lazily into his.

“Hey there, doll,” he said, trying his best to be debonair. She grinned at him for a moment, then suddenly dropped the smile and went wide-eyed.

“What time is it?” she asked in a panic, pulling the blankets away from her head and looking at the clock on her mantle. “It's eleven o'clock! You're supposed to be meeting Mother right now to leave for Finaqua!”

All thoughts of what he had been planning to do with her quickly left him. He went to hop up out of the bed, but found himself frozen midway.

“Come on, this is no time for glitching!” DG shouted, still in very close contact with him.

“I'm fine! I'm just, uh,” Glitch looked down between them where their bodies were joined together. DG followed his stare.

“I'm stuck.”
