*Four months have gone by since the first case broke out. Four months since their lives all turned upside down. London fell first, then Manchester afterwards. Gene'll forever be proud of that. All those posh hoity-toity Southerners, coming up 'ere, bringing their diseases! But it's nothing to laugh about, not really. The virus spreads fast, claiming every city, town and village in the country. Nowhere is safe, or so the radio says. Stay in your houses, lock the doors, don't go out for any reason. But of course that instantly sent everyone into a panic, and now the roads are clogged with abandoned and burnt out vehicles, unpassable even with Gene's extensive knowledge of the city's backstreets.

They were all in the station when it went down - reports of crazed citizens biting and savaging other members of the public. News reports from London had prepared them all for what was to come, but seeing it in the flesh was another thing altogether. Mrs Peterson from the local offie, knawing on Mr Sajib's leg like a chicken drumstick, blood everywhere... They knew they'd have to put her down, but shooting at a familiar face, eyes white and mouth red, hissing and gargling coming from her throat? Nobody could have been ready for that.

They did what they could with the resources the had until finally the city collapsed and chaos took over. Looting and fires, death and destruction were everywhere. People fleeing to the country, people arriving fleeing from the country, people barricading themselves indoors, camping out on rooftops... It was like something from a film.

With half of the force already bitten and turned, the remaining police had no choice but to lock themselves in the station and sit it out for a while. And though he hated sitting about and waiting, Gene had to admit that the station was the best place for them to be. There were secure areas like the cells, a canteen with a mostly full larder. Enough storeys for them to watch the city and stairs for when the power finally was cut to the lift.

The power switching off was part of what finally did it. The fridge and freezer warmed, ruining half of the already dwindling food supplies. Everybody had known that the station couldn't be a permanent fortress from the horrors outside, and it was now time to venture out. The running water went with the electricity, and people were needing to go out on food and water collections. That lasted a couple more weeks until finally the lack of supplies began to turn people on each other. Then they hear the battery operated radio crackle. Salvation, a fortified camp up north. Only a few hours drive on a clear motorway, but with no vehicle it'd take weeks to walk it. More, considering the slow and cautious pace they'd have to take. But with supplies running low and morale at breaking point, it was a risk they'd have to take.

Appointing himself leader (as if anyone would have objected) and Sam as second on command, Gene posed an ultimatum. Anyone who wanted to fight for a chance to survive could join him. Anyone who wanted to waste away in this godforsaken building could starve to death on their own.

What was left of CID and a few other officers accepted, filling their police rucksacks with as much bottled water and canned food as they could reasonably take from the others, guns - lots of guns, and set off, bound for the various shops they needed things from. Pop up tents, knives, more weapons, toothpaste, matches... Anything of use.

A few fell during the mission, but mostly the run was a success, lasting a few days with them using a shop as a Base.

And now, Gene walks next to Sam as they navigate their way through yet another car-obstructed road. They're out of Manchester now, but the shelter is still weeks away. Progress has been slow. Humans have turned out to be just as dangerous as the bloody zombies so far - ambushing anyone they could for supplies. Vince was bitten on the leg not far out of the city. It took 12 hours for the fever to finally finish him off, and then another whole five minutes for Gene to pull himself together enough to strike the final blow. He won't have one of his own walking around like one of those monsters.

With their slowly diminishing group in tow, they keep walking. Night'll be setting in soon... Two hours or so and it'll be dark.

Gene turns to Sam, chin peppered with stubble and dirt smudged on his face, voice rough with the effort of keeping his legs moving*

S'gonna get dark soon... Should try to find somewhere to sleep.

*looks past his partner at the dark abandoned houses on one side of the street, focusing on the one at the end - more windows for escape routes that way. *

Think Mr and Mrs Undead'll mind if we squat for the night?

*Gene knows Sam's right - best to deal with these things quickly... But it still doesn't help the fact that if Sam gets into trouble he's not going to be able to do a thing to help him.*

I'd rather we, and I can't believe I'm saying this, avoid the confrontation! Every bloody splat I hear could potentially be your face.

*Sam glances back to the remains of the doctor-zombie.*

We'd been spotted already, there was no avoiding it.

*And, before he can stop himself, he adds quietly, almost growling*

They can't get me.

*His grip on Gene's arm tightens for a moment, protectiveness and aggression surging through him once more. Now that they're out in the open and in constant danger, it's all coming back... That strange feeling, the uncontrollable rage.

Attempting to shake himself out of it, Sam says*

C'mon... let's go. Looks like the coast is clear now.

*And he's already shifting, pulling Gene's arm over his shoulder in order to support him.*

*they can't get him? They bloody can! But before Gene can respond, Sam's fingers are digging into his arm harder than before - almost painfully - and Sam's voice has become a harsh growl.

What the--?

Then they're on the move again, Sam hefting Gene's arm back up and over his shoulders.

Slightly confused and more than a little concerned, Gene steps forward along with Sam. It's that cycle again - slowly step onto his bad leg and then try to hop off of it quick enough to stop the pain from flooring him. Limp hop, limp hop, limp hop....*

Yer not invincible, y'know.

*They're finally, slowly, making their way away from the buildings. Every step they take, Sam is on high alert, constantly looking around while trying to pay as much attention to Gene, to make sure he's supporting him properly...

He doesn't answer at first, staring ahead, letting his gaze wander. There don't seem to be any more Walkers around... thank God.

Finally, he mutters, a bit calmer than before but still stubbornly*

I know. But I won't let them get me. Or you.

*Not again, he adds in his thoughts.*

*Every little grunt, every little sound of pain steels Sam's resolve to get them to safety that little bit more.*

North. Still heading north. We're... close to Durham.

*But Sam doesn't know how close. He doesn't know where exactly north. He can't remember the map in that much detail anymore.

But they'll make it... they'll have to.*

From what I heard back in Manchester, it's a few miles north of Durham. So that's where we're headin' now.

*That's it, he knows he sounds determined... He just can't let Gene know that it's a determination born from something that's too dark for Sam to talk about. This determination to live... To make sure they both survive.

He's brushed past certain death too often.*

We're gonna have to make a few stops... Despite my legendary stamina in the bedroom, my walking speed's not as impressive.

*Sam is silent for a moment. Then, he turns his head away with a roll of his eyes.*

Well. Good. Keep it that way.

*And they trudge on, slowly but surely making their way out of the compound. Sam can already see the outskirts of the inner city - houses having been built closer together, several (robbed and burned) shops... Soon they'll be on their way properly. The thought makes Same adjust his grip on Gene, making sure it's the most comfortable and supporting it can get.

He's still holding his weapon, though, ready to strike at anything that dares come too close.*

*Gene continues to limp onwards with Sam, but it's tough going. Uneven ground, pebbles and mud don't help, and niether do the puddles still lingering from the bad weather. His bad leg aches and his good one's tired from compensating. All in all, it's a struggle.

Sweat beading on Gene's brow he decides he needs a distraction. And Sam's white-knuckle grip on the weapon is the first thing he notices.*

Tense, aren't you. Y'look like a coiled ruddy spring.

*Sam doesn't reply immediately, keeping his eyes on the road before them. He can feel how much Gene is struggling... So he needs to compensate for that - needs make sure that Gene knows he can rely on Sam.

When he does finally answer, it's a measured response, Sam keeping his voice even intentionally.*

*giving Sam one more slightly concerned look, Gene turns his attention back to making the next step, and then the next.

But finally, once the sun is hanging low in the sky and they've been walking for hours, Gene just can't do it any more. He limps to a stop beside Sam, the arm slung over Sam's shoulders pulling his partner to a halt.

Breathlessly, Gene pants and shakes his head.*

Think... Think I need to call it a day... Can't do any more...

*Sam just shakes his head in response and remains silent.

They make better progress than Sam had anticipated, but it's still bad. They're so slow... And Sam did stock up on supplies, but it might not last them, not if they can't go on a proper raid... But no, he can't think that... One step at a time.

When the evening comes and Gene slows down, Sam's already anticipated that this might happen. He's tired as well - taking most of Gene's weight has definitely taken its toll on him.*

Alright.

*Sam raises the hand he's holding the pipe with, pointing off towards their right.*

Over there...

*They've reached a small forest, and it's been deadly quiet around them for the better part of an hour. Sam is point towards what looks like a small abandoned shack - most of one of its walls and its roof missing, but with a bit of luck still providing enough shelter... And with a bit more luck, maybe enough tinder to start a fire.*

*Gene blinks towards the shack, taking in the half fallen-in roof and wall. Hardly the best protection... But then, it's inconspicuous enough that they shouldn't need it to protect them from much anyway.*

What, you're not taking me to the Ritz? Knew you were a cheapskate.

*but despite his jibe, Gene shifts his weight uncomfortably and slowly starts to limp his way towards it, bad leg rapidly threatening to fall beneath him. It's a good choice of hideout, and with the open roof they should even be able to light a fire within the walls. Luckily the wood seems fairly dry compared to the town back there... *

*snorts softly* It's either this or up a tree...

*Sam can feel just how exhausted Gene must be, and in how much pain, constantly having to put weight on his bad leg. If only he could carry him properly... Or construct a makeshift sled, to pull Gene along on it... But they lack the material.

So Sam does his best to lead Gene over to the shack on the shortest and least complicated path. As they approach, he cranes his neck, trying to make out if there's anything waiting for them in the shadows...

However, they're lucky. There's nothing, not even a body. That shack's been abandoned for quite a while. The ground is covered in moss, which should hopefully make for comfortable bedding...*

'Ere...

*As gently as he can, Sam helps Gene lower himself to the ground, so that he can lean against what looks like the sturdiest bit of wall, with a bit of roofing left to cover them.*

*Gene's beginning to tremble by the time they're inside the shack and Sam helps him to the ground. Both legs feel absolutely wrecked, for two different reasons. With a sigh, Gene flops back against the wall and closes his eyes.*

Ahhh. Nothing like a good chunk of... wild moss to soothe the backside, eh.

*looks up, noting that Sam's steered him to the side of the building that's undercover. Good - at least they'll be covered if it starts raining again.

It pains Gene to know that Sam's going to have to be the one to get a fire going and organise their stuff - but not as much as it'd pain him to get up. He hisses as he adjusts his leg into a more comfortable position.*

We get a fire going and we should be set up for the night. The walls here should stop the light bringing an undead party to our door, anyway. Not really in the mood for a rave.

*Sam straightens his back with a painful click, tiredly looking down at his partner. One day, and they're already like this... It reminds him of what it was like when the fever had weakened him so much that he was unable to walk - only now, their roles are reversed.*

Yeah. I'll make sure we're safe.

*As much as he can, anyway.

Sam is tired and aching, but he still gets the fire set up with considerable speed. The first fire in what feels like ages. They use it to heat up their tin food, and it tastes like heaven.

Setting down his can (having eaten not even half of it - he wants to keep that for later, or in case Gene needs more), Sam leans his head back with a sigh, allowing himself to briefly close his eyes. He's still tense, still alert, but after a day like this, not even Sam can resist the temptation to relax just a little.*

*trying not to feel bad while Sam does all the work (hey, he can't move - it's not like he can help it), Gene tries to be at least a little helpful in being vigilant. Fighting might not be within his capabilities right now, but alerting Sam of intruders is something he can still do.

Dinner tastes amazing. Hot food - a luxury he's missed infinitely. Making a fire isn't always possible, but when it is it's fantastic.

He does notice Sam placing the can back down rather sooner then he'd like, though... And while he understands why, Gene isn't in the mood for half-measures tonight. They've both exerted themselves far beyond their advisable limits. They both need to eat and recuperate tonight.

Mouth full and his mood improving with it, Gene nods at Sam's food tin.*

You'd better eat that before the foxes get it.

Not hungry. Gonna eat the rest tomorrow.

*He has noticed how much Gene's mood has improved, though, and that in turn has improved his own. His entire being is revolving around Gene these days... And how could it be any different?

Sam opens his other eye as well, watching Gene as he eats.*

*Gene can't help a tired smirk at Sam's lazy movements, spooning one more mouthful and then setting his can down too.*

I'll finish when you do, then.

*He licks his lips and takes a deep breath, appreciating the fresh woodland air. God, it's like heaven compared to the stuffy, stale air underground.

Leaning against Sam slightly, Gene rests his healing cheek against the fabric of Sam's newly acquired scarf and snakes his fingers over to touch Sam's. The firelight, the fresh air, the starlight above them... Everything would seem like the perfect romantic setup... If it wasn't the middle of the extinction of humanity.*

*Sam is about to protest - Gene should eat his fill, he's the one who still has to compensate for lost blood and healing tissue - but then he can feel his partner's weight shift against him. A moment later, they're leaning against each other, and Sam automatically inclines his head to rest his cheek against Gene's messy hair.

When Gene's fingers intertwine with his own, Sam hesitates for the fraction of a moment - it's the need to keep alert, to be able to jump up at a moment's notice that's keeping him from reacting - but then he can't help himself. He's been alert and tense all day, and all the days before that. He's had to fight and kill more than Gene knows.

Sam needs a break.

So he grips Gene's hand properly, slowly twisting and reaching over to gently cradle Gene's other cheek - the hurt one where a scar is starting to form - exhaling audibly.*

*Gene tightens his grip on Sam's hand as he feels him respond. It's good that Sam is beginning to unwind...with how tense he's been, Gene was a little concerned that Sam wouldn't be able to relax at all.

At the touch to his damaged cheek, Gene's mouth twitches. It's not that it feels bad - quite the opposite. The fact that he's scarred doesn't make a bit of difference to Sam, and that's a relief.*

Camping out beneath the stars, eh? Would be bloody romantic if it weren't for the zombies.

For once, I agree.

*And he raises his head to look up, trying to catch a glimpse of the sky. The sun has set by now, and there are a few stars blinking way up ahead.

Sam looks up for several more seconds before lowering his head again, removing his hand from Gene's cheek to tiredly rub at his eyes. The day has taken quite a lot out of him as well - as have the last few weeks. It's in the evenings that he feels it the most, the debilitating exhaustion.*

*it's obvious how tired Sam is - Gene remembers from the whole 'bite' saga how knackering it can be trying to drag someone along when you're already tired. And it's not like Sam's really had any time to be 'off duty' for a while now.

Worth the atmosphere and everything, the quiet of their surroundings and the crackling of the fire in front of them, Gene can't help himself.

Slowly enough that Sam could easily stop him if he wanted, Gene reaches up and hooks a finger in Sam's scarf, pulling it away from Sam's neck just a touch - just enough for what remains of his bite mark to be visible. White and purple puckered scars in an oval formation, the skin around them still pink and sore-looking.

They're both scarred now. Both almost victims of the evils o this new world. But they've pulled through. They're alive.

Before he knows he's doing it, Gene leans in and presses a kiss just to the side of the bite mark. A sign of how grateful he is that that bite wasn't the end.*

*When Gene reaches for his scarf, Sam is pulled out of his reverie, and his first instinct is to stop Gene - he picked up that scarf (a lucky find) not only to conceal the bite from potential enemies, but also to stop it from constantly reminding him and Gene if its presence. And now Gene is pulling it away...

But Sam stops himself, waiting for what Gene is going to do. They've made it through so much, it would be silly not to trust him now.

And then... The kiss. It sends a tingling up and down Sam's spine, makes his breath hitch slightly. Things have been so rough recently, he's completely forgotten what these gentle, intimate touches feel like. A little sigh escapes him as he cranes his neck slightly, inadvertently exposing the bite further. Trusting Gene so much as to expose it that far.*

*feeling Sam open up to him like this, exposing the reason he almost died, it feels incredible. So much of their interaction lately has been rough and urgent or griping and supportive. With danger lurking around every corner there's been no time to just... Be.

He kisses again, and then again up underneath Sam's ear, testing the waters.

For the first time in weeks he feels... Like things could get better. Being out of the mine and out of that terrible fever, now under the stars and by a warm, roaring fire is hard not to feel peaceful.

Trying to keep his bad leg still, Gene turns his upper body just enough to be able to place his hand on Sam's stomach, gently tugging the material upwards to expose a sliver of skin*

*There's still a part of Sam that is yelling at him to stop this - they're not safe, they're out in the open, they could be attacked any moment...

But then, because they could be attacked any moment, Sam stubbornly shoves that part away, wills himself to relax further. And that is surprisingly easy now, with Gene kissing further up his neck, and his hand coming to rest against his stomach, pushing up what is left of Sam's shirt.

However, Sam is still aware of Gene's limitations at the moment. So he shifts slightly, turning so that Gene has better access. At the same time, Sam reaches up and cups the side of Gene's head, slowly and idly stroking through his hair.*

*Feeling Sam respond, Gene continues to ruck up Sam's shirt, letting his hand brush against the skin just above Sam's zipper. Like this, warm and calm for the first time in months, Gene's barriers are completely down - the threat of attack is low tonight, and as a result the need for intimacy seems to be rising.

Gene purrs at the feeling of fingers in his hair, kissing at Sam's jawline just a little harder.*

*A tremor runs through Sam's body at Gene's touch, followed by a low sigh as he cranes his neck up even further, exposing more of his jaw for Gene to explore. He's losing himself - he WANTS to lose himself, in this moment. His mind flashes back to those precious minutes so many weeks ago, in an actual bed... That opportunity that was so stupidly interrupted.

Not this time. There's no one to walk in on them - no one who matters.

*Gene meets the kiss head on, letting himself fall into it completely. He wants to lean up, get on his knees and tower over Sam - pin him against the wall and floor and kiss down his chest, run his hands over Sam's shoulders... But as he tries to move, his leg throbs all over again.

Frustrated with himself but still too far gone to stop, Gene withdraws his hand from Sam's trousers and begins to fiddle one-handedly with the button and zip, tugging and pulling in an attempt to get access.*

*Attuned to detecting Gene's every need as he is at the moment, Sam of course doesn't miss how his partner tries to lever himself up and fails - he feels every little wince, understands the purpose of Gene's shifting. And as Gene starts to tug at Sam's trousers frustratedly, Sam knows he has to do something.

Pulling back from the kiss, but still staying close, he shifts himself, doing exactly what Gene would have loved to do; getting onto his knees so that he's towering over Gene. Here he stops, however, gazing into his partner's eyes, searching them.

He murmurs, with concern in his voice*

You sure you're up for this?

*It's not that Sam doesn't want to go through with what they've started... He is worried, lest they draw too much attention and are attacked, but he's willing to let his guard down for these precious moments.... for Gene. But he needs to know if Gene really thinks he can do this... With his injury...*

*Gene watches as Sam manouvers himself over and above him, mirroring exactly what he'd imagined doing himself. It's as though Sam was in his head. But that's how it always is, isn't it. Sam's a part of him now. And Gene loves it.

His body overriding any control his mind might have had, Gene nods breathlessly*

Yes. Bloody-- Yes!

*He raises his hands to grip onto Sam's sides, pulling him in ever closer, fingers gripping desperately. Now he's started, he's not going to be able to stop even if he wanted to. His leg'll just have to take a backseat for now - he needs this. Needs Sam. Needs his partner. He needs something besides pain and despair - a few moments of bliss and peace and pleasure. Something to help them both forget.*

*Gene's breathless reply causes something that Sam hadn't thought himself capable of anymore-

He smiles, openly and widely.*

Alright then...!

*Gene is pulling him down, and Sam has to prop an arm against the wall so as not to fall over and right on top of his partner. Still, he follows Gene's demand, leaning in as closely as possible, going for another kiss, just as slow and deep as the last one. Despite Gene's urgency, he wants to take this slow - wants to make it last. Wants to ensure that Gene gets to enjoy every single second of it.*

*a thrill runs through Gene as Sam leans in again, catching his lips once more with his own. This is going to happen... It's going to happen!

Clutching at Sam urgently, Gene pulls at Sam's clothes. Sam may be wanting to savour this and to take his time, but Gene's heart's already beating hard and fast, a flush beginning to show on his previously pale cheeks.

He practically groans as his hands roam over Sam's back, craning his neck to make sure he gives as good as he gets.*

*Gene's impatience makes Sam smile again against his partner's lips, the hands roaming over his back sending bursts of tingles through him. His free hand is still on Gene's face, sliding back now to cup his neck and the back of his head, fingers massaging gently and stroking through unruly hair.

He'll let Gene deal with his clothes - Sam's always liked it when Gene got all impatient and undressed him with urgency like this. Not that they'll go the full way here; the fire is lovely and warm, but the night is still chilly, and weakened as they both are, it won't do to expose themselves any further than necessary... and besides... besides........

Sam loses his train of thoughts with a quiet moan, keeping up the kiss and deepening it.*

*grinning against Sam's lips, Gene slides his hands round to the front of Sam's body to continue what he'd started, rucking Sam's shirt back up over his stomach and pulling at his belt and zip. Sam's shirt will sadly have to stay in place, despite him wanting to rip it right off Sam's body - clothes aren't so easy to get hold of now. Buttons are annoyingly more important in this day and age.

Finally Gene manages to pop open Sam's fly. With a low growl he takes hold of Sam's zipper and slides his other hand up the inside of Sam's leg*

*Sam's breathing has grown heavy by the time Gene starts lowering his zip. It's simply been too long. The mere thought of Gene's hand getting a hold of his cock makes Sam shiver with anticipation and lust, and he has to break the kiss to gasp for air, his still unnaturally pale skin having finally flushed ever so slightly.

His trousers are tenting by now, and Sam already has to force himself to concentrate, to keep holding himself up against the wall. This would be embarrassing if he wasn't so far gone already - him getting all excited like a teenager, nearly ready to shoot his load at the hint of a touch. But he can do this, he can hold on, he will hold on...!*

*Sam's excitement thrums under Gene's fingers, he can feel it. The tensing of Sam's thigh under his fingers, the hardening bulge under his palm as Gene rubs across Sam's groin. Everything else seems to melt away into the background as Gene loses himself in pleasuring Sam - building him up for the final show. It's been so long, he needs to make sure that Sam enjoys this - needs to make sure that Sam feels every little touch.

He presses his hand against Sam's straining crotch again, grinning wolfishly as he does.

Mine.

Then, slowly and gently, Gene lowers Sam's zipper and parts his trousers, leaving one thin layer of cotton between him and his prize.*

*Sam's breath hitches every time he feels the pressure of Gene's hand against his crotch, each touch sending bursts of pleasure through his body. He leans against the wall more heavily, his head right next to Gene's.

So he misses that wolfish, possessive grin, but he feels it, in how patient Gene is suddenly being, how slowly he's freeing Sam of his trousers. He's drawing this out now, probably enjoying every single second, and that thought makes Sam incredibly happy.

He huffs out a breathless chuckle as only his pants remain to be taken care of, and he can't resist the temptation to lean his head down a little further, sucking at the base of Gene's neck for for a moment. One advantage of the world being as it is now, is that no one is going to be worrying about hickeys and the likes...!*

*Gene hisses at the feeling, his pulse beating fast under Sam's lips. The sucking on his skin, the slight pang it causes as the blood rushes to the surface... Sam's claiming him. Marking him. Protecting him.

Unable to hold it in any more, Gene closes his eyes and tilts his head to the side to give Sam more room - and at the same time pulls downwards on Sam's underwear, allowing him to spring free.

He almost growls out the next words, demanding and pleading at the same time - he wants to do this perfectly. Do whatever Sam wants, and whatever he's capable of.*

When Gene finally frees his cock completely, Sam gives a low moan, opening his mouth and letting his teeth graze Gene's skin - not really biting, but letting him feel the pressure.

Then, however, he pulls back, until he's able to look Gene in the eye - look at his flushed face, observe the spark in his eyes.

Sam smiles.*

Ignoring the pain in his leg, Gene leans forward to capture Sam's lips again, a pleased grin trying to interrupt the kiss.*

Ask and you shall receive.

*listing Sam again, Gene takes Sam in hand and begins to pump ever so slowly. The weight of it in his hand, the velvety warmth... He could go all out right now. But he won't. He'll draw this out for a line as his impatience allows him.

Fist wrapped around Sam, he strokes firmly up and then softly down, thumb rubbing against the underside with just the amount of pressure he knows Sam likes.*

And then, there it is - Gene's hand on his member. A shiver runs through Sam at the first stroke - it's been too long, far too long... Sam can't remember the last time they were actually able to go through with something like this...! But it looks like the long time has done nothing to lessen Gene's memory, because the way he's going about this, it threatens to turn Sam to putty under those strokes - just the right amount of pressure at the right time, building a steady rhythm....

Sam finds himself groaning against Gene's lips already - concentrate, Sam, concentrate! Because he as well wants to draw this out, needs it to last, needs Gene... Gene...*

Gene savours every little tremble, every breath that Sam huffs out, sliding his hand up and down, up and down. In his own trousers he can feel the rush of blood, the anticipation. But he ignores it for now - this is what he wants. Gene needs to make Sam feel good. Needs to take him out of his own mind for just a few moments.

He hisses a chuckle back against Sam's lower lip, nipping at it gently as he pauses the rhythm for a moment and focuses on stroking his thumb across the dampened head of Sam's cock.*

But now his eyes flutter shut, and the only thing he's still actively doing is holding himself up against the wall. Everything else is entirely need-driven - kissing back as Gene kisses him, and then when Gene stops the rhythm for that moment, rubs across his head, God, and the faint sensation of Gene's teeth on Sam's lips... Sam's hips twitch involuntarily, thrusting of their own accord and Sam groans again, louder this time, as another tremor runs through him.*

Using the moisture now coating his thumb, Gene slides his hand downwards once more, stroking firmly as he goes. It's a struggle to hold himself back - he just wants to pump Sam into oblivion right now... But there's a build up to be had. So he growls lovingly against Sam's neck and strokes once more, slowly and steadily.*

Sam shudders as Gene keeps stroking him so slowly, tantalizingly, God, there's still a part of him that doesn't want to let go - they need to stay alert, he needs to protect Gene...

But that growl against his necks, reverberating through him, and another stroke up and down, and Sam almost whimpers. He is indeed letting go, his mind starting to focus on Gene and Gene only. His hands, the one stroking him, his kisses, setting his skin on fire.*

His hips start pumping in time with Gene's strokes, and Sam's breath comes out heavy and warm as he groans, leaning his head forward again to press his forehead against the crook of Gene's neck.

Any intention of trying to hold back, to make this last, evaporates as Sam loses himself in Gene's rhythm, in the heat that's slowly but steadily building in his groin and spreading everywhere.*

This is it - this is what he's been missing. The slide of skin against skin, Sam's muffled huffs of pleasure against his neck... It's such a simple and overwhelming pleasure.

*It was intended to be a warning, but the orgasm steals his breath away and leaves Sam speechless, pressing his head further against Gene's skin as he comes, hard, spending himself all over Gene's hand and belly. It's an explosion of warmth running through him, and in the heat of the moment, without even realizing what he's doing, Sam drags his mouth up sluggishly to press a sloppy kiss to Gene's neck, and then his teeth graze across his skin, culminating in a soft, yet palpable bite, together with a low groan.*

He doesn't let go yet, slowly and gently milking Sam to a stop, trying to draw out Sam's bliss for just those few more seconds. His crotch is straining, the feeling of Sam's ejaculate coating his skin making his own cock twitch and throb. But he ignores it. Sam's pressed up against him, kissing and nipping lazily at his neck and that's all Gene needs right now. He's made Sam happy. Made him relax, forget. And that's the best thing in the world.*

*It takes Sam several seconds to catch his breath and feel anything other than bliss. It's been so long since they did this - so long since they've allowed themselves to - that now, it has hit him like a train. And Sam wants to savour that feeling, along with Gene's warmth underneath him, the hand that's still milking him, drawing it out, the taste of Gene's skin, the /feel/ of his grin.

Sam presses another kiss to his shoulder, then slowly pushes himself up, just enough to be able to look Gene in the eye. He remains silent for a few moments, just focusing on his partner. Then, his hand comes up to cup Gene's cheek, and Sam whispers*

You are magnificent.

*And he kisses Gene, slowly and deeply - so grateful for this moment, for what Gene did... For the fact that they are both alive and able to do this. He's not forgotten about Gene's needs, but right now, he needs to let Gene know just how much this means to Sam.*

And then the compliment. Gene's own grin spreads, a loving, smug look on his face.

Before he can reply, Sam's dipped down again, kissing him deeply. And for a moment, Gene lets himself melt into Sam like butter. Once the kiss is over, Gene sighs happily.*

He's still tingly and warm from that orgasm, and he could happily fall asleep (which should be worrying, seeing as someone has to stay up to keep watch), but there is no way he isn't going to repay Gene for this.

And so, with a knowing little smile, he repeats what Gene said earlier.*

The fact that they're touching at all, that Gene still doesn't seem to be scared in the slightest... of the possibility that Sam might still be contagious... The possibility of something happening is low, admittedly, but still: it means a lot to Sam, that Gene doesn't seem to be thinking about it at all.

He chuckles and leans in for another kiss, while he works to free Gene's erection from his pants. And there it is - thick and hot in his palm. Sam gives it another squeeze before sliding up its length, stroking over the tip with his thumb, to test just how far gone Gene is.*

He doesn't waste any more time. Gene's had to wait for long enough. He moves his kisses down to Gene's jaw, following the line of it up to his ear and nips at the earlobe. At the same time, he begins to stroke Gene's dick, in a slow and steady rhythm, applying pressure that's just the right side of too much. He knows that, even though he'd never openly admit it, Gene enjoys it when Sam shows dominance. And right now, Sam is more than ready to give Gene exactly what he enjoys the most.*

Suddenly everything is wonderful again. He's whisked back to a few months earlier - a quick fumble in lost and found - a night of soft kisses and passion in their own comfy bed - a hard, angry shag in the back seat of the Cortina after a particularly intense clash... There are no undead any more... Just the two of them, alone and happy.

And speaking of, the time's coming for them to get some real shut-eye. The day's been a damn stressful one, and physically exhausting to boot. And now that they've both expended some of their pent-up energy, tonight's rest should be good. And considering their little shelter here, they might even both be able to sleep without one of them keeping watch.

Sam takes a deep breath, inhaling the clear night air and the smell of the fire. Then, he pulls his backpack close and rummaged in it a little, before pulling out their trusty blanket. Trying not to disturb Gene, he spreads the blanket over the both of them, trying to bundle himself and Gene up as best as he can.

Lastly, Sam makes sure to have his knife ready. You never know when you might need it... *

Gene is recovering, and they're back on track, heading for the safe haven. Hopefully they'll start running into people who are making the same journey soon...

Finally, however, even Sam can't stay awake any longer. He shifts to the side slightly, his head resting against the crown of Gene's hair, an arm still wrapped around him protectively. And he sleeps peacefully in a way he hasn't done in a long time.*

*the night passes quietly, thankfully - both of them spark out for hours, undisturbed by the moans and groans of undead predators and instead lulled by the warmth of each others presence.

As morning breaks, Gene surfaces groggy. He's slept more deeply than he has in months, and God it's done his mind good. The despair and pessimism seems to have melted away, at least temporarily. Until he tries to move his leg, that is. Too much time spent locked in one position causes a painful twang in the damaged muscle as he tries to shift his weight.

He freezes, squeezing his eyes shut as the waves wash over him, slowly calming enough for him to heave himself up just a touch more.

Voice tight but still buoyed by last night's antics, Gene leans in and kisses gently at Sam's cheek. At least Sam's going to get a nice awakening... *

*It's a miracle that Gene's shifting isn't enough to wake Sam up already - during the last few nights, he's been so on edge that any sound of discomfort coming from Gene would be enough to snap Sam to awareness immediately.

Right now, however, he merely exhales a little more deeply - and then a slightly sharper inhalation, as Gene kisses his cheek.

Sam gives a sleepy grunt, squeezing his eyes shut a little tighter before blinking them open. For a second, he remains still, but then Sam shifts, stretching his back and sitting up a little straighter. And then, finally, he turns his head to blearily squint at Gene.*

*watching Sam wake up all bleary-eyed and sleepy is one of those little things that Gene's missed. Lately with everything that's happened, Sam's been wound like a coiled spring. And in the dark, he could hardly even see Sam. And then there was the fever when he didn't know what the hell was happening anyway.

So Gene watches with an amused pout, raising an eyebrow with mirth*

Looks like the beauty sleep actually worked! You're looking a lot less like a panda this morning!

*Sam blinks, not quite processing Gene's words properly yet. He's disoriented from the deep slumber - he's not slept as well as this in forever, it seems.

It does only take a few seconds though for Sam's mind to catch up with his body, and he raises a hand and drags it down his face, shaking his head like a cat shaking off droplets of water.*

No animal talk before breakfast, please...

*Sam yawns then, widely, before properly looking at Gene, taking in his amused expression. He can't help it, a weak smile appears on his face for a moment. Gene is still far too pale, dark rings underneath his eyes, face drawn from the fever and pain he's had to go through... but he's here, he's alive, and he's making fun of Sam. What more can Sam ask for, everything considered?*

... how're you feelin'?

*Sam's jibe is like music to Gene's ears, and the smug look on his face shows it plainly.

Before he answers, Gene looks down at his leg as though it'll just tell him the answer. A small twitch of a muscle is all it takes though. His teeth clench as he relaxes it again and grunts out an answer.*

Eh, as good as can be expected. Not exactly lookin' forward to getting up, but what's new. Sunday mornings were always the same!

*Sam's heart sinks at Gene's answer - it was to be expected, really, but the reality of it is still so harsh. This isn't something that's going to heal up quickly.... Gene is going to be like this for a few weeks, without professional medical help if they're very unlucky...

But thinking that won't help.

Sam leans over and kisses Gene's brow, needing to ease that frown there.*

Can't promise coffee, but there's painkillers if you want them.

Mmm. Yummy.

*Painkillers on an almost empty stomach isn't going to do much for his gut, but that's the least of his concerns right now. Out of all the body parts he's worried about, his stomach lining isn't the priority right now. So he holds out his hand expectantly - walking isn't going to be comfortable, and he's too tired and sore to 'be a manly man' about it today.*

*With Gene holding out his hand like that, Sam doesn't hesitate. He pulls his backpack closer to himself and rummaged for a few seconds, emerging with the little packet of pills, and one of the few snack bars Sam had managed to pilfer. He holds the bar out to Gene with a questioning look - he knows that Gene must be wanting to take the painkiller as soon as possible, but he still can't help but cling to those small things and conventions, like making sure to eat something before taking medicine... *

*Oh Sam. Ever the one for safety. With a small nod of thanks, Gene reaches out and takes both. He knows they need to ration, but if he can get enough energy into him, he's hoping he'll be able to make it at least half a mile more today. They're dangerously far behind the others now. They need to catch up.

Gene rips the snack open and immediately tears it in half, holding one part back in Sam's direction. No point on him eating all of it if Sam's going to be tired as well... *

*Sam exhales audibly - he should've known that Gene wasn't going to it all of it on his own... But he'll, he definitely could do with the energy... And there's no point in arguing.

So Sam takes his half from Gene and takes a bite. He plans to make this last.

The holding the bar between his teeth, Sam fumbles for a water bottle in his backpack and silently holds that out to Gene as well.*

*There's something about this silent mutual food and water sharing that helps Gene feel even more secure. They each know what the other needs, and there's no fuss in providing it.

Gene takes the bottle and unscrews it, swallowing down the painkillers with a generous swig. Then he holds it back out to Sam casually as he shoves the other half of the snack bar into his mouth to follow.*

*Sam makes a point of not watching Gene as he drinks, but he does notices that he doesn't take a lot of swigs. So when Gene offers him the bottle, he shoves it back at him gently, shaking his head and taking another bite off his bar.*

You need that. No objections.

That's not what I'm asking. I just want you to take into consideration that your body needs resources so it can heal up properly. I'm fine.

*He isn't really... But relatively to Gene, Sam is in tip-top shape.*

*rolls his eyes, unscrewing the lid once more.*

You know, I thought the apocalypse and end if mankind would be enough to loosen you up a bit, but no.

*He's joking though, and to show it he takes another good gulp of the water, making a production of swallowing it down.*

....ahh. Right, your turn.

*Sam merely raises his eyebrows he knows Gene is putting on a show. But for once, Sam is happy enough to keep the atmosphere relatively light.*

Ta.

*After he's taken his obligatory few sips, Sam stows everything away and, with a small pang of regret, stiffly gets up from his place and stretches, using the opportunity to survey they area.

It's still quiet, and though the sky seems to be cloudy, it doesn't look like it's going to rain just yet... And come to think of it, they're lucky that the night was a dry one.

Taking a deep breath, Sam looks down at Gene.*

Right. We should get a move on.
