Author's Notes: Set in my That Damn MPreg universe. Now with Commentary
Hi, and welcome to the Director’s Commentary for Second Best the first official story in the That Damn Mpreg Tommy/Anole/Nico story arch. I think it needs to be said right now, this is all stratataisen’s fault for even making me think of this pairing (see Blue Eyed Boy).
I’d been stating from when I first started writing Tommy/Nico stories that, in my mind, they were very much an on-again/off-again couple. And thanks to stratataisen, I started thinking “Who would Tommy be with in those off times?”
The answer?
Victor Borkowski.
Victor Borkowski, known to the world as the Avenger Anole, opened his door to find his teammate, Thomas "Speed" Shepard on the other side, a hopeful smile on his face and a six-pack of beer dangling from one hand. There was also a fading handprint on one cheek.
"Nico threw you out again."
Tommy shrugged his shoulders, giving Victor one of his 'What can I say?' smiles before leaning forward to kiss him. The mutant let him, one hand coming up to run through Tommy's hair. Vic knew he should have been annoyed with Tommy. The speedster only came to him when he and Nico were split. But there was something very flattering about being the one Tommy turned to. He could have gone out and found any number of partners... but Tommy was here, with him.
Until he was gone, anyway.
They moved inside Victor's apartment, kissing with every step until they ran into the couch. They tumbled over the side, Tommy landing on the couch and Victor landing on Tommy. The beer rolled away, not that either of them cared. Tommy was pulling Vic's shirt over his head, and one leg was wedged between his thighs.
Victor buried his hands in Tommy's hair, wishing -- not for the first time -- that it was black.
And there’s the kicker. I had previously stated in the Main Story for the That Damn Mpreg universe that Victor was in love with Billy. And by sleeping with Tommy, Victor gets someone who at least looks like his lust-object.
Vic feels a LOT of guilt over his relationship (not that he’s even willing to call it that) with Tommy. He knows this isn’t healthy, but that’s not stopping him, and he doesn’t really know why.
When it came right down to it, that was why they did this. Tommy came to him because he was nothing like Nico, but Victor let Tommy do this -- use him -- because it was the as close to having Billy he was ever going to get.
It wasn't a healthy relationship. It wasn't really a relationship. They fucked when Tommy wasn't with Nico and Vic wasn't with someone else.
Victor unzipped Tommy's jeans, pushing them down over his hips. Tommy was licking and biting his neck and shoulders, his hands resting on Vic's hips. He ground against the mutant, making small, needy noises deep in his throat.
Victor rolled off him, pulling Tommy off the couch and towards the bedroom as he wondered if Billy made those noises during sex.
Yeah, Tommy knows that what Vic really wants is Billy, but he’s not above using what he’s got (resemblance to Billy and willingness to sleep with anyone who says yes) to get what he wants (Victor)
And that ends the Director’s Commentary for this fic. Come back next time, when we go over the next part of this little saga, Hold Your Hand
