Short, sweet and passionate. I like Martin's bewilderment when Danny opens up to him. And the kissing, well, kissing is always good, but these were especially succinct and effective. Nice job!

Is this a missing scene from a recent ep? *hasn't watched in ages*

Nope. I made it up, which is why the "case" part of this little ficlet is so bare. My imagination tends to stick closer to the kissing!

I'm glad you liked it.

Aw, thank you veronicaluv July 9 2007, 04:33:53 UTC
This was lovely! And had the added bonus of one of them up against the wall in the arms of the other - that was perfect for this scene. I love a worried and scared Danny, because you just know he's reached the end of his rope with Martin (and has obviously tried hard to hide his feelings). And this:

"I can't lose you," Danny whispers.

makes me sigh oh, so happily.

Thank you, wonderful anonymous author!

I'm glad you liked it. I thought the prompt would be easy, but I really had a lot of trouble getting started with it. I'm glad it turned out the way you wanted!

That he knows each sigh is understanding and each gasp is a promise and each meeting of lips, of tongues, of teeth is one hundred apologies he can't seem to say out loud.
Oh. *melts* I really liked this, the boys felt true to character and the ending was sweet but not heavy-handed. Very nicely done. :)

I have a lot of love for this story. Danny's anger his fear are a live thing, Martin's confusion is rendered so well. And the kiss is a thing of beauty!

Great job!

That kiss nearly killed me. It took me forever to get it right because it was so integral. The rest of it is so spare, but that had to full to the brim and it just didn't want to be!!! I'm so glad I actually got it right in the end. Thanks!
