One more drabble!

I'm rather more proud of this one than the last. :-)

But it's unbeta'd, so proceed with caution.



Prompt: Soap

Armistice


Bodie uses too much soap when washing up. He overfills the sink, soaks the counters and floods the floor. He tackles this domestic task with customary mad abandon, over the top and into the enemy trenches. Broken dishes are casualties of war.

An unexpected lull in the combat catches Doyle’s attention. Bodie has captured a soap bubble and is holding it up to the light.

Doyle steps forward.

The bubble pops and Bodie turns, defensively.

This thing between them is fragile, stretched almost too thin to see. “I thought you’d dropped the soap,” says Doyle.

“I still might,” replies Bodie.

~end~

Makes me think of new, too. I love Bodie attacking the dishes - that made me laugh - and the promise of "I still might" - sounds like very new, still flirting. Bodie should flirt more. There can never be enough Bodie flirting, as long as he's doing it with Doyle of course!

Mmm... You're right. I need to write more flirtatious Bodie. Something good and long and ultimately NC-17. From watching him interact with Marrika and the rest, I rather get the impression that he likes the flirting and foreplay. He's not just "throw 'em down and frisk 'em." ;-)

Thanks!

You should, you really should! And I'm sure you're right, he enjoys the pursuit - though I think Ray may give as good as he gets, and be no passive pursued. Good and long and ultimately NC-17? Sounds like heaven, full of flirtatious Bodie ...
