Author: Lacey McBain
Pairing: Arthur/Eames
Rating: R
Word Count: ~6276
Summary: Arthur and Eames have always had an arrangement of sorts: Eames goes to Arthur when he's in trouble, and Arthur doesn't get in trouble. But when Arthur starts turning up at Eames' door with mysterious injuries everything changes.
Excerpt: It's entirely possible Eames' traitorous heart has waited until precisely this kind of moment to blindside him. Arthur-beautiful, competent, untouchable Arthur-seems human and vulnerable stretched out on Eames' sofa beneath his grandmother's afghan, and Eames experiences a rush of feeling for Arthur so strong it stops him in his trainers. He fully expects to find skid marks when he looks down.
