Now that things were starting to calm down, Jude was looking forward to a real nights sleep, but mostly he was looking forward to continuing on with whatever he and Beckett had started what seemed like forever ago.

They'd agreed to have dinner, but both were so tired that staying in seemed like the best way to go, so Beckett had invited Jude over. Beckett had left a little while earlier, and after talking with Ally and Clark for a bit, Jude was ready to sneak out the door. He was hoping to avoid Agent Comfort, and so far he'd done a pretty damn good job of staying off of the Agent's radar. Or, rather, giving Cooper the slip at every oppurtunity.

He slipped into his office to secure his computer system and he was busy tugging on his peacoat and messenger bag at the same time while he tried to make a go for the elevator. He was in such a rush that he didn't even see Cooper until they'd run into eachother, and Jude reached out to steady the other man as soon as he'd recaptured his balance.

"Sorry, excuse me," he managed before he tried to slip past Comfort so that he could be on his way.

Beckett turned his hand over beneath Jude's so that he could curl his fingers up and brush the tips against his wrist. "I love it though. I love it when I can make things easier for the team. Or when I can get the media under control or help get a family set up with victims' groups." It was all part of his liason role. "I really don't want to be transfered or fired." He wasn't sure how they'd handle this sort of thing, but he wasn't going to deny exactly what he'd done and why. He didn't believe it was wrong. Against protocol but not wrong.

Jude smiled at that soft brush of Beckett's fingertips against his wrist, and he leaned forward over the table to press a kiss to the other man's mouth.

"Lets hope it doesn't come down to either of those scenarios," he murmured before he sat back to take a bite. He inched one of his feet over to Beckett's and tapped his toes against the other man's. "You're an excellent cook," he grinned.

Being reassured by Jude meant a lot to him and he relaxed easily back into the evening. Wriggling his toes beneath Jude's, Beckett stared at him closely. "Oh yes, I slaved very hard over this meal. I do hope you appreciate it."

Part of him had the urge to eat fast just to get the table out from between them, but he also wanted to savor the time spent, so he slowed down. "I'm really glad things have settled down and you're here."

	"Me too," Jude said softly with a warm smile. He couldn't help but glow around Beckett, especially now that he knew his feelings were returned. "This is all still a little surreal. I mean, I've had a crush on you for ... Well since we met." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Really?" He remembered back to that day. "Yeah, I was pretty floored when you walked in. You have no idea how much torture it was to hear about your dates." He was in the office quite a bit while the others were out working a case and he and Jude had talked a lot, so Beckett had heard about Jude's love life in those casual tidbits of information. It had killed him half the time, but he'd hidden it well.

Jude's cheeks flushed a nice shade of pink as he took a sip of his pepsi. Honestly, he was shocked that Beckett hadn't thought he was a tramp or something. Then again, Jude never talked about any sexual experiences he had while dating someone, but still, he dated a lot.

"I'm sorry," he said with a shy laugh as he put his chin in his free hand and looked over at Beckett. "I really had no idea."

	Beckett had filled in the gritty details in his mind, and he wasn't too proud of the fact that he'd certainly imagined Jude with his dates. It made him jealous, but he couldn't stop himself. He didn't have to do that anymore and it pleased him to no end. "I should have said something sooner," he laughed and offered a shrug. "Think of all the time I wasted."

	"That could be said for both of us," Jude replied with a grin as he continued to eat his meal. "Just think of all the time we could have saved and all of the bad dates I could have avoided." He couldn't help but smile. "I guess they just make me appreciate you more." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	impotentwaffle 2010-01-25 08:19 pm UTC (link)
	"Ah," he said with relief. "Can I take that to mean this has been a good date so far?" As far as Beckett was concerned, it had only just begun. Under the table, his foot took control, slipping over the top of Jude's foot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	halloweenish 2010-01-25 08:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes," Jude smiled, enjoying the attention of Beckett's foot. He wiggled his toes playfully as he worked on finishing his meal. "I'm looking forward to cuddling with you and hopefully making out." And maybe more. At least Jude was hoping for more. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	impotentwaffle 2010-01-25 10:20 pm UTC (link)
	He nodded. "I'm definitely putting that on the agenda." Cuddling and making out. That wasn't going too fast, and that was Beckett's goal. Ultimately, he doubted he could hold off that long, but he was going to make a valient effort. Finishing off his plate, he leaned back in his chair. "Any other activity you'd like to put on there?"

	"Oh, there's a few I'd like to add, but maybe I should keep those to myself for now," Jude said with a smirk as he finished up his dinner. "I'm sure you can guess some, though," he added playfully while he got up to carry his dishes to the sink so that he could rinse them off and put them in the dishwasher. "Do I get to borrow some of your pajamas?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	impotentwaffle 2010-01-26 03:43 am UTC (link)
	Beckett followed him into the kitchen and watched him clean up. "If you keep doing the dishes, you can borrow anything you want." He hated doing the dishes with a passion. "That includes me...though it wouldn't really be borrowing so much as taking what was offered." For keeps, was implied. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Oh really?" Jude asked with a grin as he took Beckett's plate away from him to rinse it off, too. "I think I'm getting the better end of that deal, just so you know."

He continued with cleaning up, which didn't take very long, and when he was done he washed his hands and dried them off before he went over to slip his arms around Beckett's waist.

"Pay up," he said softly as he leaned in for a kiss.

He wished he could pay for all of his services like this--though that meant Jude would have to fix his pipes, and install his cable, and various other things, because he didn't want to kiss anyone else.

Beckett tipped his head, setting his hand against the small of Jude's back to draw their bodies close. He wanted this particular kiss to leave Jude's knees like jelly. After a moment, he let the tip of his tongue run against the other's bottom lip, begging access. Once granted, the kiss deepened and Beckett groaned just a little.

Feeling the weight of Beckett's hand against his back made him part his lips and push himself forward so that he was pinned against the older man, and he easily fell into the kiss. It had exactly the effect that Beckett wanted, too, and he moaned softly as one of his hands drifted up to tangle in Beckett's hair. The kiss was far from innocent, and Jude bit down gently on Beckett's lower lip to tug at it playfully.

Jude was far from the sweet and innocent boy he could seem. Beckett liked that fact a great deal. With both hands on Jude's waist now, he turned so that he could lift the other onto the kitchen counter. There, he leaned and drew the kiss out, hands starting to slide under the hem of Jude's shirt. When he touched skin to skin, it was the snap of electricity jolting through him and he turned his fingertips inward to knead against the rise of Jude's ass just below the top of his pants.

	That little move surprised Jude, and he let out a quiet noise of enjoyment as he hooked his legs around Beckett's waist to draw the man in closer to him. His fingers tugged lightly at Beckett's hair as he deepened the kiss even more, wanting more, needin more. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	impotentwaffle 2010-01-28 04:51 am UTC (link)
	He was more than prepared to give him more of this. His hands wrapped around until they were crushed against the small of the man's back, palms flat against his skin. "You're so warm," he commented as he broke the kiss for only a moment. But as soon as the words came out, he was pressing their lips together again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jude drew in a breath when the kiss broke, and he let out a breathy laugh that was cut off by Beckett's lips as soon as the man was kissing him again. He fell into the kiss and a groan escaped him while his arms tightened around Beckett's shoulders, one hand pressing against the back of his neck. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He went on like that for a little while, making out with Jude in the kitchen. At the moment, there was nothing else important in the world and it felt nice to be so wholly focused on one thing.

After a bit, he pulled back and swallowed hard. He could feel himself pressed up against the ridge of the counter, half-way to hard with just kissing. His valiant efforts to keep this semi-chaste were rapidly going down the tubes.

	When the kiss finally broke, Jude dipped his head and pressed an open mouthed kiss against the side of Beckett's throat as his fingers curled against the base of the man's neck. He was definitely into what they were doing, and like Beckett, he was getting aroused just from kissing. He couldn't help but wonder what doing more would feel like. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"I had every intention of going slow with you," he said honestly, voice breathless from kissing. "Because I really like you and I have every intention of making this last. We have all the time in the world and I'm standing here feeling like if I don't have you right now, I'm going to die." His fingertips slid from Jude's back to his stomach, hooking down around the waist of his pants. It was so tempting to unfasten them, but instead he just linger there, finding his breath, letting the younger man kiss his neck.

"What makes you think that we need to go slow?" Jude asked, his voice muffled from his mouth being pressed against Beckett's throat. "We've known eachother for a long time, and have been interested in eachother for a long time. It isn't as if we just met and we need to build trust, we all ready have that," he added before he pulled back to press a kiss to the older man's jaw. "I trust you."

	Beckett laughed, the sort of deep masculine laugh that was mostly sex but quite a bit of amusement as well. "You make an excellent argument. I like that you're advocating for not going slow. Tell me what not going slow would entail," he leaned back and smiled slowly, letting his weighted gaze drag down the front of Jude's body. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
