Ships Passing: The fallout of falling in to bed - For Arthur

[artfulforger]

Eames had roused when Arthur started moving, though he wasn't even close to ready to get out of bed. The beauty of things was, it wasn't as if he could be seen going in at the same time as the point man, so he merely dragged the blanket half over his head and pretended to sleep.

He lay there, listening to Arthur move around the room, crawling out long enough to kiss him and mumble about seeing him later in the day.

Except Eames never came in. No call. Just a text saying all was good, explain later. He said nothing though when he came in the day after, two days worth of stubble and looking downright worn and weary as he dropped down at his desk.

He would, because he didn't want Arthur seeing him in a poor light. He found he was suddenly concerned about that. It was a new thing and he didn't know what to think about that.

"Oh do you now. I wouldn't have thought you the type to be cuffed," he admitted, curling his arm around Arthur. "Even if you are my boy."

Arthur's opinion of Eames hadn't changed. For this one time, it didn't bother Arthur to pick up the towel and hang it up. It was just something that he did being the man that he was.

"I'm not the type," Arthur admitted, moving in closer to him and resting his head on his shoulder. "But you would be the one to cuff me so who can say how I'd react in that situation." He didn't think he'd liked to be spanked either, or be anyone's 'boy' but here they were.

Eames curled his arm around Arthur, holding him close. Damn but he liked this. He liked how they fitted together, the way Arthur felt in his arms. He definitely wished they had gotten here sooner but what mattered was they were now.

"Well, I don't do a lot of cuffing of lovers," he admitted. "I would do anything with you because it's you, Arthur." He shifted slightly, kissing his temple. "But I don't do these kind of things with just anyone. This is with you. For you. For us."

Arthur raised his gaze to look at Eames. "I don't either, Eames," he said. He had suspected of course, remembered Eames mentioning something earlier that morning but hearing it from the forger's mouth sealed it all. "I've only ever done anything like this with you and it's because of you, that it's with you that I like it." He paused and buried his head against the crook of Eames' neck. "Couldn't imagine calling anyone else 'daddy'."

"Damn good thing too," he said, trying to sound all huffy and his chest puffing up. "You're my boy and don't think I won't defend that, even if you do end up with someone else," he said with a low chuckle, making sure it was clear he wasn't actually upset. And casually making it clear he got things could change as well.

"So, you're curious about cuffs," he asked. Oh yeah, he wasn't letting that go yet.

A smile tugged on Arthur's lips when Eames pretended to get huffy. Arthur couldn't say for sure where they would end up in the long run but for now, he was in this with Eames until they decided enough was enough. "Just yours," he chuckled, making it clear that he too wasn't upset and aware of what this was and where it could go or not go.

He felt a heat creep up his neck. "A little," he admitted then clear his throat. It didn't have to be cuffs either - ties would do the trick just as well. However, just as he thought about that, there was also a lot of risk in allowing himself to be tied up when it came to the business they ran in. He trusted Eames though or they wouldn't be here and he wouldn't have allowed Eames to spank him. "What about you? What are you curious about?"

"Damn right you are." He did love hearing it. He couldn't help himself but there was something about him saying it the way he did that really made him smile, and helped him to relax. He just liked the soft sound of it, the emotion that came with it.

"Interesting," he said, silent a moment. "I think we can try it. Maybe after this job," he added. "Just in case something goes wrong and all." Neither of them could take chances with outside stress hurting things on this job of all jobs.

"A lot of things," he admitted softly. "Public places. Being bound yeah."

Arthur smiled and moved in closer to the forger. He liked this, being wrapped up in Eames' arms and watching the rise and fall of his chest with every breath he took.

"If we tried it, definitely has to be after the job," Arthur agreed and glanced up at him. He would be damned if he let anything jeopardize this job other than what they had going on now. They didn't need any other factors slipping in unnoticed - they would have plenty of that on the job.

"Public places," he asked, his eyebrows raising - a little interested in that as well.
