In the rush of everything he almost didn’t notice. They were running out of time, always running out of time, and then there was that moment, a fleeting second, when he really flew for the first time. Nobody would blame him if he missed it. it seemed so natural falling from those lips.
Except he didn’t. Except it wasn’t.
He could hear it now loud and clear, echoing.
John.
After years of Majors, and Colonels and indescribable numbers of Sheppards.
John.
It was just his name. He’d heard it said a thousand times in a thousand different ways. But somehow this does something to him.
Makes his breath shallow and his hands clammy where they press against porcelain skin. Makes him shiver and arch when he hears it again, pressed against the jut of his collarbone by skillful lips.
He doesn’t know how he got to this place, this place where the whisper of his name in the dark encompasses the world, but only when from those lips. Doesn’t understand how it could be so after so long.
All he knows is the body against his and the time they do not have and the joy, the utter joy, that when the moment came, offered again, finally again, that this time he seized it. That after denial so long and so strong he grabbed this lifeline with both hands, and sealed his name and his future, with a kiss.
