Mapping Freckles: An Out of the Blue Outtake

Summary:

Day 6 Holiday In the Sun.

 

A little glimpse of Robert and Aaron after a day on the beach collecting fossils from Out of the Blue.

Work Text:

Their bodies were pressed together, and Aaron wanted to sink into the heat they'd created. Their bodies were warm from exertion. Warm from the emotion. Robert's chest was still rising and falling in a quick rhythm, and he knew he was as well. They turned toward each other slightly as they settled into the bed. The sheets barely covered them, and Aaron half thought he should pull them up, but…

Robert's thigh was exposed, and why cover such perfection. He shifted, his hand reaching out, and he started to slowly trail his fingers on Robert's skin. Absent-mindedly tracing freckles. It elicited a chuckle from Robert. He shifted away but then back into the touch. "That tickles."

"Soz…" Aaron murmured, but he didn't stop.

"What're doing anyway."

"Making maps of your freckles…" he looked at Robert's face. His cheeks were pink, and his hand trailed slowly up Robert's body to his face. He tilted his head and focused. His tongue poked out of his mouth.

"Now, what're you doing…." Robert asked, his voice deep.

"Seeing if you have any new freckles."

"Don't think the sun was out enough for that…sorry it wasn't warmer. I thought we'd…."

"I don't care about the weather," Aaron said.

"Really?

He met Robert's eyes. "I've really loved this weekend. That you did this…" he glanced at the box filled with fossils, shells, and rocks that they'd left on the bureau in the room. "I… no one's ever done anything like…" he had to stop the emotion from overwhelming him.

And Robert pulled him closer and kissed his temple and proving how well he knew him, and Aaron felt himself falling more in love.

"That lady, she thought we were on our honeymoon," Robert laughed after a beat.

"Were we kissing too much?" he asked and shook his head. Displays of affection weren't natural for him — but the idea of not showing affection toward Robert felt odder.

"I don't think it's possible to kiss you too much."

"Shut up…"

"I'm just saying…." Robert kissed him. "As amazing as this weekend was, I'd plan something much bigger and amazing if were to ever be on honeymoon…."

His heart pounded loud in his ears at the idea of that…he blinked and shook his head. He didn't need anything like that. All he needed was Robert. This was what he wished he could bottle up and live in. Being with Robert and falling more and more for him every second.

"All I need is this…." Aaron touched his face before kissing him. "This is all I want."

"Me too…" Robert breathed. "Me too."
