How about some schmoopy Joshtin. Involving a piano and one of them singing a new song to the other one. Something sweet and full of schmoop.....because really, I need schmoop.
It was a haunting melody that reminded Justin of something he would hear in a horror movie, but then it slowed into a low and bittersweet sound that whipped Justin around the moment he heard JC’s voice sing along with it. He was used to hearing JC’s voice, had heard it since he was 12 but it sounded different this time; even on Schizophrenic, it hadn’t sounded this deep and rough, this raw. Justin’s eyes closed as he listened, fearing that a look to JC would make him fall into a trance, not that the music wasn’t helping him with that enough.
JC’s skin, he found out, was warm beneath the white shirt he had on despite the cool air conditioning filtering through the house and the area of his lower back, right above where his jeans began covering him, tensed while he played and sang. He was falling more and more in love with JC with each lyric that flowed out of his mouth into the room to meet the piano chords. The music stopped then and JC’s hand fell to his lap and his head turned to Justin, hesitant but proud.
“Well?” he asked tentatively. His only answer was Justin leaning in to kiss at the side of his neck. “Justin,” he complained, “I’m serious, what did you think?”
“C,” he breathed out, leaving tiny kisses up the column of his neck before pressing his lips behind JC’s ear and whispering his pride and his love. The blush from Justin’s words started somewhere at JC’s collarbone and flushed his entire body, moving up his neck into his cheeks while also creeping down beneath his shirt and soon, Justin felt the warmth from the blush on his hand that had moved from JC’s back to his stomach. “Jive better be good to you and give you another album if only for that song.”
“I wouldn’t put it on even if I did get another album from them, babe, and I wouldn’t put it on any album from another company or independent.” Justin’s face held question and JC smiled, “It’s all yours to hear and love.” He reached a hand up and cupped the back of Justin’s neck, pulling his face down and demanding a kiss. When they broke apart, fire danced in JC’s eyes but his lips were still turned up to a playful grin. “Don’t steal it though; then you’d be in trouble.”
Justin rolled his eyes, “Like I’d steal your SONG, C. If I did, you’d have everyone after me.” He laughed loudly when JC narrowed his eyes and stood from the piano bench. “You know I’m playing.”
Then JC’s eyes widened and so did his smile, “I know. You just think you’d be able to get away from everyone who’d help me.” He ran a hand over the shorn hair on Justin’s head and almost giggled when they tickled his palm. “But you know, if you want to hear it again, you can. And if you want to hear me sing it for you, I would.” He winked, “Want to hear me sing it while I’m breathless? It gives it a different vibe, I think.”
“And you already tried this out?” Justin teased as he slid off the piano bench, wrapping an arm around JC’s waist before he left. The kiss at the back of JC’s neck was soft, barely there, but it sent a happy shudder throughout his body.
“No, but I’m figuring ‘cause you know I know what I sound like when I do that. You made me try it out for Right Here, remember?” he laughed and winked once more before turning and darting up the stairs, yelling down to Justin once he reached the top, “Let’s go, slowpoke. You’d think you didn’t WANT to hear it this time around.” He continued teasing Justin to follow him up to the second floor where his bedroom was, but his voice started fading somewhere around the living room, Justin guessed and he shook his head, loving JC and wanting nothing more than to follow him.
But before he left the booth and the studio, he took the red scarf that had fallen to the floor underneath the piano and smoothed it out over the black and white keys with a smile.
And I forgot to say that I love your Joshtin icons. LOVE THEM. I'm gonna have to find me some more because I just have one and since this is my slash pair of choice, I should have more.
And as a first story that you've written for this community, I must say that I look forward to reading other ficlets that you write, because really, I thoroughly enjoyed mine.
Aww, thank you. I quite enjoy my friends who shower me with them when I ask. LoL. And if they are your OTP, your user icons should be flowing with them, yes. *nods affirmatively* And yay for more JuC folk! *hugs you tightly*
And well, first story for the community, but not in the fandom. LoL. So maybe I had some practice. :o)
*hugs you tightly back* Love me some Joshtin girls.
And if you maybe had some practice on previous works, maybe you should point me in the direction of your reading material so that I could maybe indulge myself....*hint, hint, nudge, nudge*
