warble_on_jeffWho? Nick Matheson and Jeff Hinton
What? That awkward moment when you slept with your best friend
When? The morning after
Where? Nick's place
The first thing Jeff was aware of when his eyes fluttered open to the buzzing sound of an alarm clock was that it wasn't his alarm clock, waking him up to loud music. And the second thing was that this most certainly wasn't his room or his bed. And as he gradually got his wits about him a little more, he realized that he had a warm body pressed close to him under the blankets, and his mind caught up, filling in all the blanks for him. He was with Nick. Nick, who was curled in against Jeff's side under the blankets with his arm around Jeff's middle. Swinging his arm... the one that wasn't wrapped around Nick's shoulders, over to the side, Jeff managed to make contact with the alarm clock's snooze button before the obnoxious buzzing woke Nick. It was surprising in and of itself that it hadn't woken him. Being a dad meant that Nick would be a light sleeper, but maybe last night's activities had made him more tired than usual. Either way, there was no sound from the baby monitor, which Jeff noted with relief before he moved his hand to gently stroke Nick's hair out of his eyes. The dark haired man next to him was beautiful lying there asleep, and Jeff hated to wake him, though he knew that Nick was on shift in a few hours, and he'd have to get up and get ready for work before long.
With a deep breath to steady his nerves, Jeff turned on his side to face Nick. God, he hoped that Nick didn't regret what had happened last night. That could be a giant awkward moment. But he'd very much seemed willing, and it wasn't as if either of them had been drinking or doing anything to lower their inhibitions. They'd thought it out, done it because they wanted to, and because they were both on the same page. But Jeff had to admit... he had no clue what was coming next. What did this mean? Neither of them wanted it to just be random casual sex. But what was the step they would take next? "Nicky?" he whispered, his hand gentle on Nick's side, right below his ribcage. "Nicky, babe, you have to get up for work soon."
