Jun 11, 2012 17:07

Title: Shot through the heart
Fandom: Revenge
Pairing: Nolan/Emily
Rating: R
Word count: 3,800
Prompt: Nolan isn't that great with guns. He can't figure out whether it's terrifying or pure pornography that Emily is.

Notes: This is for my Birthday Smut-a-Thon. Thank you to my dear isagel for the fantastic prompt! Also available at AO3.

Nolan has done many things he never could have imagined in support of Emily's little revenge crusade, and just when he thinks she has no more power to surprise him, she hands him a gun… )

Awwwwwwwww, Nolan. <3

I love seeing him getting off so hard on Emily controlling him, because of course. And his fear of her leaving him behind when the revenge is all over with, when likely she would never want to. Bless.

This was my favourite paragraph:

Not to mention that when dealing with the queen of compartmentalization, you have to learn to draw a few lines yourself. There's only so much of Emily she'll allow any one person to see. Nolan has always been profoundly aware of this. And the kind of nakedness he wants from her is the urgent phone call at two a.m. when she needs his help, the rare bit of truth she occasionally shares with him, the even rarer moment of vulnerability she allows him to see. If the cost of that is never having any other kind of closeness with her, he's happy to pay it.

So true.

Thank you so much for writing such a lovely fic to my prompt, darling! *birthday smooches*

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked the story. I'm working on a longer Nolan/Emily piece in which they get married so they can't testify against each other. I just couldn't help myself!
