Summary: missing scene from Silent Partner
Martin stood as the plane came to a halt; one of the stewardesses was showing the passengers the exit protocol while the other was writing her phone number down for him. He put the small piece of paper in his pocket and grabbed his carry on; he headed for the exit of the plane and straight to the man standing at the gate.
“Fitzy, let me get that for you.” Danny grinned pouring on the fake enthusiasm. Martin glared at him. Danny took Martin’s bag “How was your flight?” he asked continuing the charade. “Look Jack says I have to be nicer to you, all right?” he smiled at Martin.
“You guys sure go out of your way to make me feel welcome.” Martin said bitterly.
“That’s because we know that our department’s small potatoes for a guy like you, you are off to bigger and better things.”
”I see you got the memo.” Martin frowned.
“Look, are we going to work together or not?” Danny said standing in front of Martin.
“I don’t know; are we?” Martin asked him.
“Let’s start at the bar.” Danny suggested smirking. They headed to the bar; the bartender smiled at them Danny showed him the picture of there M.P.
“Yea he’s been here a few times. Usually comes in with a lady and a kid.”
“When did you see him last?” Danny said.
“Couple weeks ago I guess.” The bartender answered.
“I’ll call Jack and let him know what we’ve found out; you get settled in your room Fitzy.” Danny laughed and flipped open his phone. Martin glared at him and pushed the button to his floor. ‘Fitzy’ he mumbled to himself. ‘Jerk!’
Danny knocked on Martin’s door almost an hour after Martin had checked in, Martin cracked the door then walked away from it, Danny let himself in. “Nice digs eh.” Danny said closing the door.
“What did Jack say?” Martin asked flicking the TV off.
“He gave me the name of the apartment Patrick stays in while he’s here. It’s a company place we’re to check it out tomorrow.”
”Why not tonight?” Martin asked eager.
“Because, no one will be there to let us in Martin.” Danny said while thumbing through Martin’s closet, where his suits and shirts had been nicely hung. “Anal aren’t we?” Danny joked.
“I like my things in order. Is that a crime?”
“No, just a little weird.” Danny moved to the dresser where Martin’s socks and underpants were neatly folded. “Wow. This is sick Marty. You need help.”
”Are you going to spend the whole trip insulting me? Because if you could just get it all out of the way now, I’m sure we’d get more work done.” Martin picked up some of his notes and started reading them over.
“Actually I was thinking we’d go get some grub.” Danny answered.
“I’m not hungry.” Martin answered without looking up.
“Oh come on Martin.”
“What, I’m not your friend Danny. We work together and barely at that.”
”So you’re really looking at leaving the department?”
”I don’t know. Maybe.” Martin sighed “I don’t want to work anywhere I’m not welcome.” He added.
“Oh come on Martin! We may have given you a rough few days, but you’re part of the team now.” Martin kept his eyes on the paper work in front of him, Danny sighed ‘Fine man I’m going to eat.” Martin glanced up to watch Danny leave.
Danny sat at the bar, flipping his cell phone open and closed. “Can I get you a drink?” The bar tender asked.
“Soda and cranberry.” Danny said.
“Beer for me.” Came a voice from behind him, Danny turned to see Martin.
“You decided to come out of your cage?” Danny asked turning away from him.
“I guess I can be a bit of a jerk too.” Martin confessed. Danny smiled to himself. “You want to grab a table?” Martin took his beer from the bar and wandering toward and empty table. Danny followed him carrying his drink.
“I’m not looking to leave.” Martin said breaking the silence after they’d ordered.
“No?” Danny asked in disbelief.
“Not really. Missing persons has always been my dream job.” Martin took a large sip of his beer. “My father used to talk about Jack Malone; I’ve wanted to work for him since the Mayerton case back in 95.”
“So you had daddy pull some strings for you?” Danny said in an accusing tone.
“No. My work got me here.”
”From blue collar to missing persons?” Danny said “Hardly adds up.”
“My test scores were in the 5th percentile. And I had glowing recommendations.” Martin defended himself.
“I bet you did.”
”You know, I don’t need to take this.”
”You’re right. I’m sorry.” Danny apologized as the waitress put down their plates. Martin eyed his steak then grabbed his fork and knife and began cutting large pieces. He dabbed a large amount of butter on his potato and salted his house veggies. Danny turned his nose up. “You know, you look healthy and all but what are you eating?”
“I’m a meat and potato kind of guy. My aunt would make dinners just like this when I was a kid. It’s what I’m used to.” He took the napkin from his lap and wiped some juice from his lips. “I don’t know a lot men who order a salad for dinner.” Martin smiled.
“Hey, I’m health conscience. And there is chicken on this salad.” Danny pointed his fork to the small amount of grilled chicken haphazardly placed no the top of the salad.
“Sorry that doesn’t look appealing to me.” Martin devoured another piece of his steak.
“Jack will never believe me when I explain that I didn’t kill you, you died of a heart attack” Danny joked.
”Hardly.” Martin laughed, he was glad the mood was lighter. “Alright so tomorrow we’re off to the apartment complex. What time is it?”
Danny looked at his watch “Seven.” He answered
“Too early to turn in.”
“There’s a Cub’s game on ESPN; we could hit the room and watch it.” Danny suggested.
“Sounds good.” Martin agreed. Danny charged the meal to the account and followed Martin back to his room. He hadn’t noticed before that Martin was slightly taller then he was. Nor that his blue eyes were comparable to the waters of the Caribbean. A heat stirred inside him. “Big cubs fan?” Danny asked trying to distract himself from his sudden thoughts
“No not really. More of a Socks fan.” Martin answered pushing the ‘door close’ button on the elevator. Danny suddenly felt claustrophobic, he smelled Martin’s after shave and his face flushed, something new was stirring inside of him. “Red or white?” he asked trying to focus on the subject.
“Red.”
“Sorry to hear that.” Danny cleared his throat. When did this get uncomfortable he wondered.
“Yes well we’ll get it back again soon.” Martin answered.
“Huh?”
“The Socks, we’ll get it back. I mean the team is destined to do something great sooner or later.”
“Right. Sorry.” Danny shifted his position as the elevator slowed to Martin’s floor, the two exited the elevator and wandered down the hall to Martin’s room.
Martin opened the door and tossed the key card on the desk next to his planner, he took his cell phone out of his jacket and placed it neatly on the table next to the bed, he plugged the adapter into the phone and listened for the tell tale charging sound.
Danny clicked the TV on and flipped the channel from the news Martin had been watching earlier to ESPN he sat at the edge of the bed as the commercials danced around the screen.
Martin loosened his tie and unbuttoned the top of his shirt. Danny did the same, he kicked his shoes off and lay on the bed. He watched Martin from the corner of his eye, Martin turned the water on in the bathroom and splashed his face, running his hands through his hair before grabbing his tooth brush and laying a thick layer of toothpaste on it, he put the brush in his mouth and worked it. Danny smiled to himself feeling the blood rush to his face as he blushed. Martin flicked open another button of his shirt then grabbed a towel to dry his face and wipe his mouth, some toothpaste lingered on the corner and Danny had a sudden urge to lick it off. He bolted upright.
“What’s wrong? Are they losing? Martin asked emerging from the bathroom, towel around his neck and his shirt fully unbuttoned.
“No… I don’t know.” Danny answered. “I just realized I’m a lot more tired then I thought, long day and all. I think I’ll just hit the sheets.” He spoke quickly, jumping up from the bed and heading for the door, grabbing his shoes but not putting them on. He was in the elevator before Martin could speek.
Danny paced around his room, he felt like an idiot. ‘Pull yourself together man!’ he told himself over and over as he walked a grid into the cheap hotel carpet. He’d jumped into a cool shower the minute he arrived back into his room, but even that had failed to wipe the thoughts of Martin from his mind. “What is wrong with me?” he asked himself aloud as he turned to cover the same carpet he’d just tramped over. He barely noticed the loud alarm sound, but the rapping at his door caught his attention.
“Agent Taylor, we’re evacuating this floor.” Said a bell hop when Danny pulled the door open.
“Why?” Danny asked grabbing his bag from the closet, he was glad he hadn’t unpacked like Martin.
“There is a gas leak in one of the suites and we’re moving everyone off of this floor. If you’d like you can go to the front desk, they will have a room reassigned to you. Danny nodded and followed the crowd of people to the elevator and down to the reception.
“What room were you in prior?” the receptionist asked scanning her computer.
“304” Danny replied. The woman looked puzzled; she grabbed the phone and began speaking quickly. Two manager types appearing from behind her, smiled at Danny. “Agent Taylor, we’ve had some kind of computer error, and we’ve over booked the hotel.”
”Yes but you just kicked me out of my room.” Danny replied sourly.
“And we will be more then happy to refund the Bureau.”
”And I’m supposed to sleep where exactly?”
“There is another hotel just a few blocks from here.” The receptionist offered.
“Thanks.” Danny frowned he wandered to the elevator and pushed eleven. He knocked softly on Martin’s door.
“Ya?” Martin answered pulling the door open. “Danny?”
”Don’t ask. I need to share with you now.”
“Okay.” Marin said stepping aside as Danny entered the room. “I know you said not to but I have to ask?” he added with a laugh.
“First they kicked me out of my room because of a gas leak, then they say they’ve mistakenly over booked the rest of the hotel. Then she offers me a hotel down the street.” Danny explained quickly his anger building. Martin laughed heartily.
“It’s really not that funny.” Danny snapped rubbing his neck as he placed his bag on the empty bed.
”Sure it is.” Martin replied moving back to the bed where he had the case file open.
“You were working?” Danny asked still rubbing his neck.
“Ya, you okay there?” Martin asked moving his hand to his own neck.
“I think I pulled something.” Danny said making a face. Martin turned to Danny and smiled.
“Mind if I.” he trailed off, his hands already around Danny’s sore neck. Martin started softly working the knot that had formed. “Wow you’ve got some stress.” Martin added kneading Danny’s tissue. Danny closed his eyes, Martin’s hands worked magic on his neck, and Danny relaxed his mind soaring, his imagination taking over. He felt himself getting harder, soon he wouldn’t be able to hide it. Danny pictured Martin, his sparkling blue eyes gazing into Danny’s, his soft lips crashing against his own his tongue exploring, his hands, his thighs, his shaft. Danny’s eye flew open, he moved away from Martin’s grasp.
“Sorry.” Danny said breathlessly. “Where did you learn that?” he asked, amazed that the pain in his neck had disappeared.
Martin blushed. “I would really rather not say.” Martin looked over Danny, Danny could feel himself getting harder. Danny followed Martin’s gaze straight down to his pounding cock. He grabbed a pillow and put in over himself.
“Sorry. I’m not usually like this.” Danny stammered.
“Danny, are you gay?” Martin asked straight forward.
“No.” Danny answered offended. “Not really, I mean, I don’t think so.” He added.
“Alright.” Martin said.
“No.” Danny repeated softly. “I’d never really considered the option.” He said after a moment
“Oh.” Martin shifted on the bed staring at the cheap cream colored carpet.
“Are you?” Danny asked tossing the pillow behind him and pushing himself up on the bed so his head was on the pillows and Martin was near his feet.
“Not really. I’m bi-sexual.” Martin answered slowly and quietly. Danny smiled, he liked the sound of that. He wasn’t gay, but he wasn’t straight. Yes Danny could handle that.
“How did you know?” Danny asked now enthralled. Martin looked perplexed; Danny could tell he was pondering. “I’m not going to make fun of you.” Danny said.
“When I was fourteen, I had a date with this beautiful cheerleader from our school.” Martin started. “Everyone wanted to be with her, but I was the only one who asked. We had a great time, and dated for a few months, I truly started to think she was the one, then she introduced me to her cousin Travis. She was my first, so was he.” Martin trailed off. Danny looked shocked. “He was a great teacher, and she seemed to enjoy it too. I was young and confused and they used me as a puppet, but I would never condemn them.”
“They raped you.” Danny said bluntly.
“Not at all, I may have been young but I was also a rebel and anything that seemed like a bad idea, was right up my alley. I knew my father would disapprove so I enjoyed myself. You’d be surprised what you can learn when you have a patient teacher.”
“Maybe that what I need.” Danny heard himself say, suddenly he felt his face blush. Martin moved slowly from his place across from Danny, he was kneeling on Danny’s bed, his face inches from Danny’s. “Teach me.” Danny muttered under his breath as Martin’s lips came down softly, grazing against Danny’s. Danny felt an energy he’d never felt before, Martin deepened the kiss letting his tongue pass over Danny’s lips tasting him. Martin pushed his tongue past lips into the dark warmth of Danny’s mouth, Martin massaged Danny’s tongue with his own, twisting it knowingly before withdrawing and softly brushing his teeth along Danny’s bottom lip.
“Whoa.” Danny breathed his erection now forcing itself against the tight constraint of denim. Martin repositioned himself on the bed leaning hard on his side, he took Danny’s hand and kissed each finger softly, before sucking Danny’s index finger allowing his tongue to encircle and tease before sucking hard. Martin moaned at the thought of his mouth wrapped around Danny’s erection. Martin began trailing hot liquid kissed up Danny’s arm as he slowly unbuttoned Danny’s shirt, once Danny’s chest was bare the cool of the room made his nipples harden. Martin smiled as he took the taught bud into his mouth before he palmed Danny’s erection. Danny nearly screamed with pleasure, Martin cupped his hand around Danny’s erection as he suckled and softly nibbled at the stiff nipple. Martin moved his hand from the erection to the button and zipper that housed it, releasing it.
Danny moaned as his penis slipped from the warmth and constraint of the denim and was now freely being stroked by Martin, Martin abandoned the now tingling nipple and ran his tongue down Danny’s perfectly formed abs, he stopped at he soft mound of hair covering Danny’s pelvis, he spread kisses across Danny’s pelvis and then down one thigh flicking his tongue against the often forgotten flesh sending a fire through Danny’s body. Danny squirmed against Martin’s mouth. “Oh god.” Danny moaned and Martin smiled, he trailed kisses down to the back of Danny’s knee before running his tongue back to the solid shaft oozing slightly with cum. Martin stopped for a moment to observe Danny who was writhing with pleasure. “How am I doing?” Martin teased.
“Great.” Danny coughed trying to sound in control and failing, he closed his eyes as Martin took his erection into his mouth and sucked softly, twirling his tongue around the stiff shaft, Danny curled his toes and moaned softly. Martin continued his act, sucking and teasing Danny’s member until Danny was pulsing with desire. Danny grabbed the blankets beneath him and pulled as he let go of his control and came, Martin smiled as he swallowed Danny’s cum.
Danny sighed wiping the sweat from his brow, he turned to Martin who was now seated at the edge of the bed, breathing heavily “My turn?” He asked running his hands over Martin’s still clothed back.
“You think you’re ready?” Martin asked, his pale blue eyes sparkling. His tone tense.
“I think I’ve learned a thing or two.” Danny answered softly kissing the back of Martin’s neck as he positioned himself behind Martin.
Martin turned to face Danny, letting Danny remove his shirt with ease before tossing it toward the bathroom. Danny grinned at Martin’s perfectly formed torso, he ran his tongue against the sweat that had beaded on Martin’s chest. Danny wasn’t as patient as Martin had been, he wanted Martin to cum, and he wanted it now. He quickly moved to Martin’s belt, removing it quickly to revile that Martin was more ready then Danny had expected, Martin’s cock fully hard and waiting. Danny took its full length into his mouth causing a moan to escape from Martin who relaxed slightly. Danny worked his mouth up and down Martin’s shaft slowing as he came to the tip then quickly engulfing the whole again, the suction was driving Martin crazy. Danny’s hands were busy massaging Martin’s balls sending him beyond pleasure.
“Where did you learn this?” Martin moaned holding back. Danny didn’t respond, he merely continued his soft torture, his own penis once again hard. Martin noticed this at once and reached for the shaft taking Danny’s cock into his hands and working it at the same pace Danny was sucking. Both boys were now admits pleasure, neither could focus.
“I want you in me.” Danny breathed. Martin didn’t argue, Danny stood and positioned himself on the bed, Martin went to his bag and retrieved a small bottle Danny assumed was lube and a condom. Once Martin’s cock was fully soaked he returned to the bed.
“You’re sure.” Martin asked Danny, kissing him softly.
“Yes, hurry.” Danny said lust covering his face, his beautiful brown eyes begging Martin. Martin obviously didn’t want to keep Danny waiting any longer and positioned himself behind, he poured some of the lube onto his finger and softly massaged the opening of Danny’s anus, Danny moaned ‘now’ and nearly sent Martin out of control.
He pushed into Danny softly at first testing the threshold before giving him the full length, Danny pushed his hips closer to Martin begging for more, Martin pulled out and quickly pushed back into Danny, creating a rhythm with him that was sending Danny to new heights. Martin reached around Danny’s hips and took hold of the oozing cock waiting for him. Martin worked it at the same pace he was thrusting, Danny screamed with passion as Martin gave finally in to the lust and came hard into Danny. Danny too could hold on no longer as he sent hot liquid all over Martin’s hand and his own stomach.
Danny heard a knock at the door, he half opened his eyes to reveal the sun was shining outside and it was defiantly morning. He moved his arm to the other side of the bed, when he didn’t find Martin’s naked body he woke up fully. “Martin?” he called out.
“Housekeeping” A voice replied from behind the door.
“Later.” Danny called back grabbing a towel and heading to the bathroom. Another knock at the door, and Danny decided he’d better tell the maid in person, he cracked the door to find Martin fully dressed.
“Late night?” he asked handing Danny a cup of coffee.
“What do you mean?” Danny asked looking at Martin.
“You look like you didn’t sleep a bit.”
“Well we didn’t, did we?” Danny replied under his breath.
“You’re room is nicer then mine.” Martin said stepping into Danny’s space. It was then Danny realized he was still in room 304.
“Are you almost ready? We have a lot of work today and we’re meeting the apartment manager at noon.” Martin said.
Danny glanced at his watch, he had a few minutes to spare. “I’ll just grab a shower.” He said. Danny turned the water in the shower to warm, he closed his eyes, and stepped into the water. The realization that he’d never been alone with Martin, he’d never kissed, never touched, never loved...... was clear to him now. Danny pushed the palm of his hand against the tile of the shower as the water carried away his tears. What am I going to do now? He asked himself, now that I know the reason I treated Martin with such hostility, wasn’t jealousy or rivalry, it was - Love.
