2001 AU
He’d gotten his orders two weeks ago, but he’d known they were coming down the pipe since September 11. The country was at war again and war meant casualties. Casualties meant medics and that meant deployment orders for one Sergeant Jack Abbot among countless others. He’d been given a week of preparation leave, which he was supposed to use to go visit his family and wrap things up, but there wasn’t a lot of family he wanted to visit and not much to wrap up. He didn’t even have a dog.
Instead he booked a flight to Seattle. If anyone asked, he said it was because Seattle was cold and rainy and he thought he was going to be short on cold and rain for a while, or at least rain. Afghanistan and Iraq could get really fucking cold in the winter. He knew that from the stories people told about the Gulf War. He ought to call it the first Gulf War now, he guessed.
He’d actually chosen Seattle because he’d texted Robby “just to check in” as soon as he’d gotten his orders and Robby had mentioned that he’d be at the ACEP annual assembly in Seattle this week. They’d seen each other several times after Jack’s first trip to New Orleans, but then he’d PCSed from Polk and their relationship had dwindled to text messages and emails, all of which were carefully written so that he was friendly but not too friendly, in case anyone ever saw something. Even still, if Jack was going to the other side of the planet and potentially (maybe even probably) not coming back, he wanted to see Robby again. He’d told Robby he’d be visiting Seattle at the same time and just left out the part where he made his travel arrangements after he’d talked to Robby.
He had a room at a hotel near the convention center and its hotels but not too near, and he had arranged to meet Robby in a bar that was between the convention center and Jack’s hotel. They tended to meet in bars since it was a completely public and defensible place to be, even if they didn’t always stay in the bar.
He was sitting in a booth this time instead of on a barstool, turning a beer bottle in his hands and waiting for Robby. He was late. Jack wondered if Robby would actually show or if this whole trip had been a stupid idea.

He didn't start moving his hand just yet, but he did take his hand off Robby's hip so Robby could move if he wanted to.

"Fuck, that feels..."
no subject
He crooked them at just the right angle to hit Robby's prostate. He probably knew where Robby's prostate was about as well as he knew where his own was, now.

"Mmm. you should look for the padded chairs tomorrow."

He kept his fingers still, surrounded as they were by the warmth and tightness of Robby's body, until he had the all-clear. He also leaned in a little and slipped a hand under Robby to gently circle his dick and maybe provide a little pleasure to go with the sting or the burn.
no subject
"Fuck me."

"I mean it," he says, shifting so that can look over his shoulder at Jack as best as he can. "I want you to screw me into the fucking mattress."
no subject
"Look for the padded chairs," Jack agreed, and leaned down to kiss Robby's lower back one more time before he pulled his fingers back and out, then leaned over to grab the condom off the nightstand.
no subject
He watches Jack, eyes drawn to his cock, to the slide of the muscles in his thighs and arms.
no subject
"You ready?" he said. Robby looked very fucking ready, with his legs spread and his dick so hard it was almost purple, but Jack still felt like warning him before he just pushed in was the right thing to do.
no subject
"Ready," he says. "C'mon, Jack."

Jack had promised him that he could try a blindfold tomorrow, after all.
no subject
"Is this what they call topping from the bottom?" he asked, and pushed into Robby a little bit more.

"Fuck, Robby," he breathed.
no subject
He knows Jack doesn't give a shit about that kind of thing, but it's a fact, all the same.
no subject
He pushed all the way in and then stopped again with a groan of pleasure. The stopping and starting was for him as much as Robby since he didn't want this to be over too soon.
"Tell me when." How Robby chose to tell him was up to Robby, but Jack was going to wait for permission in whatever form that looked like.
no subject
"Okay. Fuck me like you mean it."
no subject
The first time he'd done this with Robby, he hadn't lasted long. He hoped he was more experienced now and would avoid that, but at the same time, it just felt so good.
no subject
"Yeah," he breathes, nodding. "Like that."
