[winscenario]

[ Jim smiles a little at Victor’s words. ]

I’ll try to worry as little as possible. But you know that given the chance I would much rather be with you when you’re out there. I like knowing we can have each other’s backs.

[ Victor’s training hasn’t slipped his notice, though. It shows in the smallest things, and if nothing else, in the slightly increased definition of his muscles— something Jim can tell even when they’re just lying together in bed at night. ]

I saw you at the shooting range, the other day.

[jolting]

Yeah, I’d rather be with you on missions, too. We make a good team.

[At that, he smiles awkwardly] I didn’t notice you at all, sorry. I’m not quite ready to join the magnificent seven, but I’m hitting all the targets.

[Yes he watches westerns]

[winscenario]

I know you didn’t. But I was busy at the time too, and I didn't want to interrupt you.

[ Didn’t stop him from taking a quick picture, but still. ]

You’re doing pretty great, actually. Wouldn’t want you in the Magnificent Seven anyway, pretty sure they all die. Plus, I couldn’t let Steve McQueen steal you away from me.

[ Jim you’re the one with the huge crush on Steve McQueen. ]

[jolting]

[He laughs, giving James a quick kiss]

Steve McQueen, really? I don’t think you need to worry about that.

[winscenario]

Are you kidding? It’s Steve McQueen.

[ He chuckles, though, kissing Victor right back. ]

But I’m glad. That’s good to know.

[jolting]

Maybe I should be worried about him stealing you away. It’s kind of cute, actually.

[winscenario]

Well, if he weren’t a corpse right now you might have something to worry about.

[ He winks teasingly at Victor. ]

[jolting]

I don’t bring back the dead anymore, so I guess you’re stuck with me. But if you’re into the cowboy thing, I can wear that plaid shirt again and put on a hat.

I’m pretty fair with accents, too. [He says with an American southern accent]

[winscenario]

[ Jim sighs as though being stuck with Victor is the worst possible thing for him to settle with. The farce is quick to disappear when Victor pulls off that accent, and he moves closer, tugging on the lapel of Victor’s white coat. ]

Mmm, how about... wearing only the hat? That sounds infinitely more appealing.

[jolting]

[He smiles, curling his fingers James's hair more and his other hand going around the man's waist. They're doing terrible at him getting back to work]

That may be a problem if I'm going to pick you up from work later, but maybe once we get home I can arrange something.

[winscenario]

[ He chuckles softly at the mental image Victor’s words conjure up, the fingers on his hair predictably drawing a gasp from him. ]

Yeah, let’s— save it for later. Wouldn’t want to share the sight of your naked body with anybody else, anyway...

[ Victor better not be expecting him to actually be the one to suggest he go back to work right now. ]

[jolting]

Agreed. Your gorgeous body is for my eyes only. [He smiles at that gasp, tightening his fingers a bit more]

How do you think this ring will feel when I'm stroking your cock?

[winscenario]

[ He barely manages to bite back a purr when Victor grips his hair tighter, his head tipping slightly and eyes closing. ]

Don’t know... if I’d even feel it. [ But the suggestion doesn’t slip his notice, and his heart picks up pace just thinking about it. ] Offering to give it a try?

[jolting]

[Victor smiles. James might have bitten back the purr, but Victor recognizes the expressions that would've gone along with one]

You know me, babe: I'm always up for an experiment. And since I don't plan on taking off this ring unless I have to, I'm sure we'll find out soon enough if you can feel it when I touch you.

[winscenario]

[ Jim laughs softly. Really, Victor is so doing it on purpose, he’s terrible. And yet he loves it.

He curls his hands around Victor’s neck and pulls him in closer, kissing him slowly, deepening the contact until he can taste the doctor’s mouth in his tongue. A hand slips playfully underneath his white coat, snaking around Victor’s waist and settling on his back. ]

[jolting]

[He is absolutely doing this on purpose. James is always the one teasing him, leaving him flustered. Turning it around feels pretty damn good. He scratches the back of James's neck, letting their tongues tangle together for a while. He ends it with a light nip on the mouth and a squeeze on the ass]

You're going to make me be the responsible one, aren't you?

[winscenario]

Oh, and groping my ass and pulling my hair is you being responsible?

[ Because the only thing Victor’s doing is turning him on right now. But yeah, if he doesn’t want a very hard problem to deal with in his hands, then he definitely should be the responsible one and stop.

Fair warning, though: Jim will totally pout. ]

[jolting]

[He smiles and shrugs, letting his hands drop]

You have a great ass. It'd be pretty irresponsible of me to not appreciate it.

[winscenario]

[ He narrows his eyes at Victor, catching the doctor’s hands in his own in a loose hold. ]

You’re so going to make up for this later tonight.

[jolting]

[He lifts their hands up to kiss James's knuckles]

Of course I am. I still have to more thoroughly thank you for the ring. But for now, would you like me to walk you out?

[winscenario]

[ Jim’s smile widens just thinking about how Victor will show his appreciation for the gift. The day can’t be over soon enough— he’s almost sorry he didn’t wait until later to give him the ring. ]

Yes, please. [ He holds just one of Victor’s hands, thumb brushing over the ring on his finger. Yeah, he’s not gonna tire of that anytime soon. ]

[jolting]

[He likes the way the ring feels on his finger. And speaking of jewelry, he gently traces the infinity symbol on James's bracelet with the fingers of his other hand. He kisses James's fingers again before tugging him along to the hospital entrance]

I'll come by the guard when your shift is over. Or maybe I'll come by earlier and distract you.

[winscenario]

[ He ducks his head a little when Victor traces the symbol on his bracelet, which he hasn’t taken off since Victor put it on him. He falls into step next to the doctor as they start down the hallway, squeezing Victor’s hand in his own. ]

I’ll look forward to it all day long.

[jolting]

I hope so.

[By now the hospital staff is used to them so they just nod to Jim and go about their business. Victor sees him all the way to the entrance, taking in a few more parting kisses]

Don't work too hard.

[winscenario]

[ He cups Victor’s face while stealing that last kiss, reluctantly parting from him so they can go their separate ways again. ]

Promise I won’t. [ He winks as he turns to leave. Wouldn’t want to tire himself out too much for tonight, after all. ]
