Hero

He tells a good tale but really, he’s fooling nobody with his claims of wild youth. Heavy drinking generally makes him sleepy rather than riotous and he’s never fallen into bed with three different men in one night.

 

He’s never actually fallen into bed with anyone. Laughing someone in bed, his tried and tested technique, is a long-haul rather than a sprint.   

 

So, being dropped off at home at 8am on a weekday; wearing day-old clothes and reeking of sex and another mans sweat, is a new experience.

 

He feels as though he’s walked through the wrong door somewhere and stepped into someone else’s life.

 

Someone designed by nature for illicit sexual adventures in the back of a limousine, the floor of a safe-house, on top of a kitchen table.

 

Someone who didn’t fall off the damn table.

 

Someone who’s completely comfortable with feeling gloriously sore in all the wrong places.

 

Someone who isn’t waiting for the other shoe to drop, for the beautiful, evil, bad guy to reveal this is a plot or a mistake.

 

A hero.

 

A hero would be suave instead of secretly shy.

 

A hero would know how to deal with Syd’s anxious queries after his health.

 

A hero wouldn’t have a hickey clearly peeping over the top of his collar.

 

A hero wouldn’t have Arvin Sloane staring at said hickey all the way through a briefing.

 

A hero wouldn’t have been surprised when he returned home and found the villain waiting in his bed

Most fantastic image ever. Hee!!!

I just adore how there's absolutely nothing explicit here, but you've conveyed the mood and the feeling of their sex life and affair so wonderfully.

Hee! Thanks :) For some reason I wanted to do it in a slightly different style. The idea of Arvin Sloane staring at you is bad enough without the hickey no? :P
