This afternoon I have mostly been feeling like I'm about 20 minutes behind where I should be. I'm not actually, I'm doing fine, but I just feel like I'm rushing around to stand still.
And so instead of theatre reviews I give you a snippet of (RPS) fic inspired by this picture:
Hidden Kiss (Arthur Darvill/Matt Smith)
When they're away from everyone else Arthur's gaze flick back to Matt's lips and Matt smiles. There's a questioning look in Arthur's eyes but he must see an answer in Matt's face because he raises his hand and, with just the slightest hesitation, presses his thumb against the corner of Matt's mouth.
Slowly he brushes over Matt's bottom lip and Matt watches as a faint pink stains his cheeks.
For a moment they're both totally still, Arthur's thumb pressed against the corner of Matt's mouth as his hand cups Matt's cheek. Matt can feel the moment his nerve starts to fail, as Arthur takes a shaky breath, and he curls his fingers around Arthur's wrist holding his hand still.
"Looking for my hidden kiss?"
Arthur's mouth twitches into something that's almost a smile.
"You're quoting Peter Pan? You're standing here... and quoting Peter Pan at me?"
"There are worse things I could do."
There's amusement tinging Matt's words and when Arthur meets his eyes he can see the laughter dancing there.
"Peter Pan and Grease. Nice to know you're taking this seriously."
Arthur can feel the way Matt's trying not to smile and he realises he's still touching Matt's face.
"Oh I'm taking this perfectly seriously."
Arthur snorts and Matt gives up and lets out an honest to god giggle which makes Arthur shake his head in disbelief.
"You're unbelievable you know that."
"So I've been..."
Arthur cuts off Matt's words with his mouth, finally kissing him as he's been wanting to for days.
It's soft and sweet and more than a little uncoordinated and Arthur can feel Matt smiling still.
As they break apart Arthur looks at Matt's dancing eyes and gives in to laughter himself, resting his forehead against Matt's shoulder.
(Karen's not entirely sure what's going on when she finds them but she spends the rest of the day complaining they won't let her in on their joke)
