Title: Hidden Pasts
Claim: Vin Tanner (Magnificent 7)
Fandoms: Magnificent 7/Dark Angel
Prompt: 023 - Lovers
Summary: Chris contemplates Vin. Chris/Vin slash... though I don't think I explicitly mention it, but I figure it's obvious from the context.
A sort of sequel to The Unknown
Not the steamy sex scene some of you ::cough:: Moon ::cough:: are expecting, I’m sure.

Chris watched Vin sleep with a smile that was just a quirk of his mouth. The fact that Vin actually slept knowing that Chris was there showed just how much he had come to trust Chris. There were still large parts of Vin’s life that Chris didn’t even have a clue about, but that was alright because Chris had some secrets of his own. He was willing to wait however long it took to find out the rest.
Chris had been in high school when the Pulse hit and he’d lost his parents to the riots and looters that followed. He and Buck had had to make their own way after that and Chris liked to think they’d done pretty well even if they’d had to do some unsavoury things to get by. Chris could still remember the blank stare of the first man he’d killed, and the way his limbs had twisted awkwardly where he fell.
He’d thought that maybe things were looking up when he’d met Sarah and they’d had Adam, but all of that had ended with the fire. For years Chris had thought that there was nothing left for him and only the thought of vengeance had kept him going. That was until he’d met the untamed young man who’d swept into his life and never left.
Vin twitched a little and frowned in his sleep. Chris gently brushed the hair out of Vin’s face and pressed a kiss to the top of his head. Vin relaxed almost immediately. Chris had always been just a little saddened by the way Vin responded to physical affection. First to regard it with suspicion and then with the sort of need that didn’t seem promising for the kind of childhood he must have had. Chris traced the barcode on the back of Vin’s neck and wondered just what had happened to him.
