[OOM: Charlie has a dream.]

Some things you think will never change, like Charlie, his guitar, and a song.

Comments

"Sure," says a voice from behind him. "That's what I do, babe."

[bloody_rockgod]

Charlie tilts back his head and smiles. "And I'm damn lucky in that."

[qsilver_lab_rat]

"Damn right you are," he says with a grin. "What've you been up to lately, eh babe? Been a few weeks for me."

[bloody_rockgod]

"Oh, the usual," Charlie says and puts the guitar aside. He takes Darien's hands and swings his arms a little. "Making music and avoiding madness."

[qsilver_lab_rat]

He grins.

"You'll never believe what I saw."

Beat.

"Or, you know, didn't see."

[bloody_rockgod]

"What did you see?" He draws Darien closer, sliding his hands up his arms.

[qsilver_lab_rat]

"There's a source for this thing in my head?"

He shakes his head.

"Bigfoot. I shit you not."

[bloody_rockgod]

Charlie blinks at him.

"Bigfoot."

He slips a hand into Darien's front pocket. "Have you been smoking the good crack, puppy?"

[qsilver_lab_rat]

He leans into the hand.

"I got licked by it, babe," he says, a little put out. "It was trying to horn in on your territory."

[bloody_rockgod]

Charlie tsks softly. "Nobody licks my baby but me," he says and pulls Darien down onto his knee.

And Darien's neck gets a gentle lick.

[qsilver_lab_rat]

He shivers, just a bit, and turns to pull Charlie into a kiss.

"You tell that to the frickin' Bigfoot."

He laughs and leans closer to Charlie.

"Which was a him, incidentally. Apparently, and I'm never letting Kevin live this one down... the gland's a girl."

[bloody_rockgod]

Charlie snorts with laughter against his neck. "I didn't know glands had a sex. Female--what's the word--pheromones? Or summat?"

Arms around Darien's waist, face in his neck . . . this feels so good.

[qsilver_lab_rat]

Darien runs a hand through Charlie's hair.

"Me neither. The Bigfoot knew, though. And did I mention the licking?"

[bloody_rockgod]

"You mentioned the licking." He nuzzles his head into Darien's hand. "So, if I'm understanding you correctly, Bigfoot thought you were a lady Bigfoot and wanted to mate with you."

[qsilver_lab_rat]

"Yes. And didn't seem to recognize a wedding band when it was flailed in it's face."

[bloody_rockgod]

"I suspect," Charlie murmurs and wraps his hand around Darien's left one, "that to Bigfoot a wedding band is just a piece of shiny." He squeezes Darien's hand.
