For [livejournal.com profile] violent_rabbit, who wanted "The reason Stephen has a secret panel in his desk."



Cozy


"Wow," said Jon out loud.

It came out hoarse and raspy, and he unwound an arm from Stephen's shoulders to cough into his fist.

"Don't worry," murmured Stephen, sliding out of the post-coital embrace and leaning towards the secret panel. "I got cough drops."

Jon mentally added this to the list of increasingly improbable things he had seen come out of that panel in the last twenty minutes. Astroglide and a condom (for obvious purposes); a flag-patterned blindfold (turned out Stephen didn't mind it so much when he had someone to hold on to); a spare glasses case (for safe storage); moist towelettes (so the staff wouldn't have to deal with the cleanup); something shaped like an eagle with folded wings, which vibrated when you pushed its remote control (Jon had decided to pass, at least this time); and now a selection of flavored drops for scratchy throats.

Okay, so the last one made sense for a television personality to keep on-set. The rest of it, not so much. Unless you believed (as Stephen had vehemently insisted) that "Gay sex can strike at any time, Jon. You need to be prepared!"

Not that Jon was complaining.

He rolled a lime-flavored cough drop around the back of his mouth as Stephen snuggled up to him again, and they leaned in a half-clothed heap against the inner curve of the giant C.

It really was cozy under here. The warm lights of the set cast a series of soft hues around them, and the desk itself put them in a comforting shadow. In spite of the cameras around them (all powered down for the day, of course; Stephen had made sure of that), it felt like they were in their own little world.

"I love you," remarked Jon around the cough drop.

Stephen tucked his head under Jon's chin. "Of course you do," he said, with perfect confidence. "Who doesn't?"

*headdesk* That really is too perfect, though a bit unnerving. I don't blame Jon for passing... this time.

Astroglide and a condom Nice edit ;-)

Was the glasses case there the first time? Might have missed it, but it's adorable. Also, the "something shaped like an eagle with folded wings" reminds me of Stephen's patriotic tool for colonoscopies..."And remember to use a gentle twisting motion..." XD

Last two lines are endlessly adorable ^_^

The end line is perfect (and true)!
