Rescue Mission: Recovery

As far as hiding places go, there are worse places to recuperate than a hotel in Mumbai. At least it's quiet (for a developed city in India) the boss has been content to let Murdock take after him until he can make his way around the small room on his crutches without difficulty.
He's standing by the window, watching the city sprawl out around them when the door opens, expecting Murdock to be returning from the nearby market. "Oh, did you bring back any books this time?"
"I'm afraid I haven't got much in the way of reading material." Hannibal replies with a shallow half-laugh.
"Sorry, Boss, thought Murdock came back."
"Not yet." Hannibal shakes his head when Face turns toward him and crutches toward the end of the bed. "Good to see you up and about."
"Yeah, well... you know how it is. I'll be back on my feet in no time."
A long silence passes between them as Face settles himself at the foot of the firm bed, watching the colonel with thinly veiled interest. It was clear he didn't come to check on him, there was always something else.
Finally, Hannibal says; "We need to talk about Baghdad."
"Really? Because I was under the impression that job was done - with a ten thousand dollar bonus I might add."
"You killed an officer..."
"Who was aiming to take down the chopper! I saved your ass!"
Hannibal frowns deeper; "Your orders were shoot to disarm."
"I couldn't get a better shot, colonel. I made the right call."
A long silence falls between them before Hannibal says; "Murdock disobeyed a direct order when he waited before taking off."
"He doesn't believe in leaving a man behind. None of us do." He raises his eyes up to their leader; "At least I never thought you did."
"We all knew it had to be an option on this one..."
"You're seriously not still making a big deal out of thirty seconds..." Face shakes his head; "He made a decision and everything worked out fine."
"Thirty seconds our whole team was in danger, two civilians..."
"Well... it worked out fine." He shrugs, leaning back on his arms. "And you really need to back up off Murdock about it. He did the right thing."
"He did the stupid thing. You two are a liability the way you're carrying on..."
"Oh!" He says loudly, rolling his eyes; "Now I see what you're really talking about here. This isn't about Baghdad... this is about you hating our relationship!"
"I don't hate it, damn it Peck..." Hannibal sits down heavily in the single chair in the room, glaring at him; "I hate that you two can't look beyond yourselves and see the bigger picture."
"I see the big picture just fine. I see this being over, I see us getting out of this..."
"Until we clear our names..."
Laughing loudly, Face shakes his head. "You don't get it, do you? I'm ready to walk away. The only reason I came back is because Murdock is convinced it's right thing to do and that you can actually fix things."
"That is just like you..." He scowls, "always ready to cut and run when things get tough."
He shrugs again; "I just call it like I see it, boss. There's no way out of this mess. They're just gonna keep coming after us until we have no choice."
"Always so pessimistic... we can do this! We have people on our side, people that know what happened to us was wrong!"
"Fine," Face sighs, "you know what, you keep believing that. And, you know, I'm not going anywhere because Murdock believes that and I'm gonna watch his back." He leans back on the bed, swallowing hard; "If you can't stand the fact that we're gonna watch out for each other, then cut us loose, Colonel. I'll leave that on your hands, but you need to just get over what happened in Baghdad."
Hannibal doesn't respond. He stands up slowly and shakes his head, silently passing by Murdock as he leaves their room to go back to his own.

no subject
Date: 2013-07-11 06:26 am (UTC)Instead, he squeezes his palms tight on Murdock's thighs, letting out a soft moan.
It's been a while since he's been in this position - and he doesn't really mind it.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-11 06:51 am (UTC)"More... please?"
no subject
Date: 2013-07-11 06:57 am (UTC)Letting one hand loose it's grip, he slides down to tease at the cleft of his ass, simply tracing over the warm flesh and mapping it out from the new angle.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-11 07:17 am (UTC)It kills him a little to move away, but the hand on his ass reminds him that there are practical matters to think of before they both get too carried away. He finds the bottle of lube in Face's bag and moves back to him with a soft sigh.
"You are the best, you know that?"
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 05:08 am (UTC)Letting out a groaning whine when he pulls away - Face pouts up at him until he returns. "So you say..." He murmurs, eyes taking on that evil, lusty glint again.
"More? Or too much?"
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 05:28 am (UTC)"More... just go slow, okay?"
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 05:36 am (UTC)And he means it, he'll go slow... fast... and not at all. It's worth it to make him happy.
Taking his time, he presses a trail of kisses down one thigh and then the other, licking a broad stroke of his tongue up the underside of his hard cock before nuzzling against the wild curls at the base.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 05:41 am (UTC)"Perfect..." he moans softly.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 06:20 am (UTC)He enjoys it, though - more than anything. Even more than getting off though frequently those two go hand in hand.
Letting out a hollow moan against the soft cleft of flesh, Face inhales deep and lets his tongue do most of the work - tracing small circles and lines over his sac and down further, only teasing near his opening before dragging back up with a wet lick. It's the little things like this that he doesn't get to do often that really click with him, the way Murdock shakes and moans above him and the way it's just a little more naughty somehow.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 06:58 am (UTC)Whether it's the fact that they don't do this often, the extra touch of forbidden pleasure or just the simple joy of being intimate and close with each other in a way they rarely get the chance to be, he responds eagerly, moaning loud enough that someone's probably going to hear them if they haven't already.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 07:12 am (UTC)With a hard squeeze of both palms around Murdock's firm thighs, he shifts him forward - a little lower - to split him open with an eager swipe of his tongue. Content to tease at least until his lover's squirming, Face flicks over his opening before offering a gentle sweep of his broad tongue.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 07:24 am (UTC)"God, you..."
He doesn't even have words for the things he's feeling.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 07:37 am (UTC)Moaning low in his throat, his fingers squeeze hard enough to leave small white imprints on Murdock's skin - that panting voice does things to him he can't even begin to explain.
Pushing up as much as he can, he lets his tongue push gently against the opening - pushing and wiggling inside him to get him just wet enough that when his grip loosens to touch him again, it's easy to slide his middle finger in purposefully slow.
"You..." he pants, leaning back against the pillows with a wide grin, letting his fingers do the work. "You're amazing."
no subject
Date: 2013-07-12 08:23 am (UTC)"You are too."
He grabs at him, wanting to feel as much as he can.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 05:48 am (UTC)He admits it, he really does... it's a bit of a power trip, honestly.
"You like this..." he murmurs, stretching him slow and easy.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 06:08 am (UTC)If the hands on his body aren't enough of an answer to the question, the "yes" that's nearly a shout should clear up any confusion.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 06:15 am (UTC)"Tell me what you want, baby."
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 07:04 am (UTC)"Want you..." he sighs, his voice rough and needy. "All the way."
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 07:17 am (UTC)"Mmm, do you?" He quirks an eyebrow, twisting his fingers before withdrawing completely to take up the bottle of lube. "Tell me more..."
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 07:31 am (UTC)"You know what I want," he grins, indulging him anyway. "You, inside me... me riding you.."
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 07:39 am (UTC)His slick fingers slide hard over his stretched hole, barely dipping inside before pulling back to gently swat his ass.
"You know, if that's what you want..."
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 07:49 am (UTC)"Yes, that's what I want."
If he's gonna play that way, he'll make it entirely clear.
no subject
Date: 2013-07-13 08:04 am (UTC)"Good..." he purrs, licking his lips. "Because I want to watch you fuck me."
