Hello :)

This is my first request, this seems like fun from the lurking I've done.

I think that there needs to be a ficlet about
Picture scan credit to [livejournal.com profile] angel_q, I just shrunk it a bit for the largness of it all.

Chris needs to have called JC and yelled at him about being up so very high with no safety gear. I don't care if it's snark, or love, or friendship, just Chris, caring enough to yell at his boy. Yes.

Drops (part one)

Not exactly what you asked for, but as close as I could manage. An AU.

Drops

Chris ran down the steps as quickly as he could, cursing when he got a splinter from the old wooden railing. “I fucking hate this building,” he murmured, panting as he stopped to pick at the sliver embedded at the edge of his hand. “I fucking hate JC.”

The chilly air stole his breath as he pushed the heavy door open. He was glad it was chilly. There wasn’t even air conditioning in the old building they lived in, so they counted on open windows and fans to keep them cool during the warm summer days. As he leaned back against the brick building, his head hit a little harder than he intended, so he winced and lifted his hand to rub away the pain. It still hurt, but not as much as the pain in his heart. He suspected there was no way to reach that to rub away the pain.

Thoughts swirled through his mind and he cursed his impulsive nature as he pounded his fists against the brick wall. “I can’t believe I just broke up with him,” he mumbled. His eyes stared into the distance, not focusing on anything.

Half an hour later, Chris was still leaning against the brick wall. A few drops of water snapped him out of his thoughts. Instinctively, he rubbed the damp drops as they hit him. It didn’t take him long to realize it wasn’t rain. Looking up, he saw JC sitting in their open window, dangling his legs out, kicking freely. His eyes sparkled as he dipped his fingers into a glass of water, sporadically sprinkling drops down onto Chris.

Chris immediately moved a few feet away from the building, stumbling and falling to his knee, because he was watching JC, rather than where he was walking. “Dammit JC! What the fuck are you doing in the window? You could fall. Go back inside.”

JC reached back to put the glass down inside their apartment, then shook his head and scooted out a little further, taunting Chris.

Chris paled and sputtered. “Dammit JC, you’re going to get hurt. You’re going to fall. Hold on to something, please!”

“Wouldn’t you catch me, Chris? If I fell, wouldn’t you catch me?”

“Get back inside NOW!”

“Make me.”

“Hold on. Hold on and I’ll come get you.”

JC scooted even further out on the ledge. “Catch me!”

“JC, I’m serious. You’re going to hurt yourself. You. Stay. There. Don’t move.”

JC inched forward slowly and kicked his legs out, then settled down, watching Chris.

Drops (part two)

Chris glanced back one more time, then raced back up the stairs. JC was still sitting in the sill when Chris walked back into the apartment. “Please come inside,” he pleaded.

“Come get me.”

“Dammit JC, it’s dangerous.”

“Then you better come save me.”

JC stayed still as Chris slowly inched toward him. Gingerly wrapping his arms around JC’s waist from behind, Chris shifted his weight back, tugging until JC was back inside the apartment, staring up at him.

“I knew you didn’t hate me.”

“What?”

“You said you hated me. I knew you didn’t and you just proved it. You wouldn’t have saved me if you hated me. I don’t know what you saw last night, but it was innocent. He’s Lance’s boyfriend. And you’re my boyfriend. I love you and only you.” JC moved his hand to rub Chris’ arm. “And you love me,” he added smugly. “You wouldn’t have saved me if you didn’t love me.”

“If you ever do that again, I’m fucking kicking your ass.” Chris held on to JC tightly, resting his head on top of JC’s and rocking him slowly.

“How about you just fuck my ass?”

“You cheesy bastard.”

Chris rolled to the side, allowing his hand to slide beneath JC’s shirt, tickling his ribs. JC looked up at him, grinning as Chris leaned forward to kiss him. Chris tangled his legs around JC’s and relaxed against him. The window still stood open and a cool breeze flittered across them, playing through their hair.

JC ran his long fingers through Chris’ hair, then let them drop, caressing his ear, then cupping his cheek. “Stay home with me today, okay? I just want to spend the entire day laying in your arms.”

Chris chuckled, pressing his forehead against JC’s neck. “You just want to sleep all day.”

JC didn’t reply, but snuggled against Chris, his eyes closed.

~~~ END ~~~

You're welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I was a bit nervous about posting it, because your requested sounded more non-AU-ish to me. Thanks for your comments.

BTW: I love your icons! :)

The extent of my icon making ability is to shrink a picture down and add print, or taking icons offered for use by nice people who have web sites. The three I use all came from nsyncable.com, "smirky kirky" was made by them and the other two, I added print to. Other than that, I'm pretty helpless.

So, thank you very much for your generous offer! I'm going to go to a paid account after I find a job and get caught up on bills (my old company closed down in October and the job market SUCKS), so I may look you up when I get a paid account and have room for more icons! :)

we were talking icons!

hahahaha. I'd forgotton about that. I don't remember which icon either, but I may be able to pick it out if I saw it in a group. I'm betting it was NSync, and it seems to me it was in reddish tones, maybe reddish brown, brick red maroon. But I could be totally wrong. lol

I only had 3 icons at the time so I'm sure I originally had "Feels so good" on this post. ;)
