"I do apologize, Doctor Jackson, Teal'c," Malay called over her shoulder, her breath coming in little white puffs. She hurried into the dormitory, pulling thick, squat candles out of a basket perched on one hip and placing them on any convenient flat surface.
Daniel followed her, lighting each candle with his butane lighter. "It's quite alright, really. These things happen."
"Yes, but this is the third time this month the generator has gone down. I know it's the coldest winter we've had in many years, but honestly…" Malay grumped a bit more as she bent over to put a match to the kindling in the fireplace. She stood up as the flames took, wincing as she straightened and her joints creaked.
"There's no one else come calling, not with the snow and ice as bad as it's been, so you'll have the room to yourselves," she said, nodding approvingly as Teal'c placed his and Daniel's packs on the beds closest to the fire. "I'll leave the other candles for the bathing room, it's halfway down on the right." Placing the basket on a nearby table, Malay closed the heavy drapes at each of the many windows, shutting out the dark before casting a housekeeperly eye over the room. Finding nothing lacking, she gave the two men another nod and said good night.
The heavy wooden door closed after the garrulous woman and Teal'c and Daniel shared a slight smile. The silence now that she was gone was broken only by the snap and crackle of the logs as the fire quickly grew. Daniel walked over to the nearest window and threw back the drapes, leaning on the stone encasement. The moons' glow lit the fat flakes of snow falling thickly, against a near black backdrop of the foothills he and Teal'c had trekked over to get from the Gate to the city.
If the sight of all the snow out the window wasn't enough, the wet cloth of his BDU's clinging to his legs also reminded Daniel of the deep drifts that they had had to slog through. He shivered, and with a decisive snap closed the drapes and turned to his pack. Copying Teal'c, Daniel quickly pulled out his kit and headed for the bathroom, his teammate only a few steps ahead of him.
Teal'c set some of the extra candles around a large pool set flush with the stone floor and the rest into a few nooks and crannies the roughly cut bathroom seemed to be filled with. Daniel lit these candles too, and silently the two men disrobed, half folding, half dropping their clothes and Daniel's glasses onto a shelf that ran the length of the room. Setting his kit next to the pool, Teal'c slid in to the water with a groan.
"Cold?" Daniel paused, warily eyeing the water, goosebumps running over his skin.
"Hot," Teal'c assured him before sliding totally into the pool, almost disappearing behind the reflection the grey stone room cast on the water. Daniel wasted no time and almost jumped in, his entire body relaxing as a blissful sigh escaped from him. He ducked under the water a few times, scrubbing at his hair, before finding one of the seats along edge and slumping onto it, happy to find it was smooth. Letting the warmth soak into his bones, Daniel rested.
Suspended a few feet under the surface, Teal'c let his mind go blank, entering into a light state of kelnorim, yet still aware of the warmth of the water against his skin, of Daniel in the pool with him. He meditated, letting the symbiote heal the twisted knee he sustained on the walk from the Gate, until the lack of oxygen began to be felt. Slowly he rose, his head and shoulders breaking the surface of the water.
Teal'c saw Daniel still had his head thrown back, eyes closed, so he reached for his kit, the zipper loud as he opened it. He heard water splashing behind him, and turned to see Daniel had climbed out of the pool and was reaching for his own kit, affording Teal'c with a very fine view of his posterior. A smile that bordered on a smirk crossed Teal'c face, and he went back to his kit, pulling out soap and a cloth.
"Do we wash in here?" Daniel asked, looking around the room for another source of water, soap in one hand, washcloth in the other.
Teal'c shook his head, standing until he was waist deep. "The water circulates." Gesturing to the far end of the pool, he squeezed the now soapy cloth so suds dripped off; the men watched as the slight current swept the bubbles away.
Nodding, Daniel sat on the edge of the pool and efficiently washed, starting at his feet, the chill in the air making him eager to get back into the pool. He watched Teal'c as he washed, the white froth of the soap in contrast to the dark skin, highlighting the finely cut muscles underneath. The candlelight in the dark room gave this everyday ritual a surreal feel. It prompted Daniel to hurry, finishing before Teal'c, and with a smile that echoed the one Teal'c wore a few moments ago, Daniel slid to the pool to rinse off the soap. Slowly he lathered up his washcloth again, and easing behind Teal'c began to wash the other man's back, letting his hands linger over the broad shoulders, then down over Teal'c flanks, and back up again.
Teal'c had only paused a second when he felt Daniel's hands upon him, but he immediately rinsed out his cloth and tossed it to the side. Daniel's cloth followed, and with nothing to do, Daniel's hands slid around Teal'c's waist to wrap around his hard cock.
A deep, satisfied rumble rose up from Teal'c, and he pushed back slightly with his hips, feeling Daniel's cock between them. Warm water sluiced over his shoulders, then the scrape of Daniel's teeth nipping at his skin made his cock jump, and Teal'c turned with a growl.
He pulled Daniel to him, his mouth closing on Daniel's neck, one hand each wrapped around both their cocks, pressed against the other, finding the familiar rhythm. Daniel's other hand was spread over Teal'c's back; finger's digging into hard muscle. Teal'c had his hand across Daniel's ass, keeping him pressed firmly to him. Grunts and sighs whispered through the room as their mouths roamed over each other: shoulder, neck, jaw cheek, dancing close to but never meeting. The candlelight flickered over their bodies, turning the droplets on Teal'c's skin to gold, giving Daniel's skin a bronze cast.
Teal'c tensed, the fire running through his veins coalescing in his belly, and threw his head back. Seeing the thrumming pulse under his skin, Daniel leaned forward and licked at the spot, biting and suckling there. "Daniel!" Teal'c called out, low and urgent, hot white ropes erupting from between their joined hands.
The sight and sound of him drew Daniel over the edge. He leaned into Teal'c, calling out to him as his hand pumped faster and Teal'c's had tightened almost painfully around their cocks. With one last grunt, he came in slow spasms, breathing hard against Teal'c's neck.
The pair sank down into the warm pool, hands now lightly stroking where before their touch was firm. Their heads were together as they came down from their high, mouths a breath away, waiting until the day they were finally home and off base.
Teal'c was the first to stir, moving languorously he reached over Daniel's shoulder to pull the bottle of shampoo from Daniel's kit. A lop sided grin passed over Daniel's face and he turned, yawning as Teal'c washed his hair, absurdly regretting the necessity of separate beds in the dormitory.
"Why is it we only do this offworld?" he asked, his voice half slurred.
"The opportunity does not always present itself offworld, Daniel-"
"That was rhetorical, Teal'c." Daniel's head lolled on his shoulders as Teal'c's fingers gentled against his scalp. "I'm going to have the bathroom remodeled when we get back. Sunken tub. Huge. Huge sunken tub. Huge heated sunken tub. And candles. Lots of candles. I get paid enough," Daniel muttered to himself, Teal'c's hands moving down Daniel's body to find his hardening cock. "Oh yeah, it's gonna be great,"
"Indeed," Teal'c rumbled.
