#s3 fix it fics

[inevitably-johnlocked]

Hi Steph! I hope you're well! I just wanted to highlight a fic I stumbled upon tonight that's STUNNING so far! The author is super accomplished, but this seems to be their first Sherlock fic so it's not getting the attention it deserves. It's a post-HLV case fic (with Mary having fled and no baby as two caveats to that) with slowburn Johnlock. I'm not sure how many chapters it'll eventually be, but there are currently 4 posted (24k words).

/works/56001043/chapters/142225180: the first time, a second time around

I wish I could tag the author, but I'm not sure if they have a tumblr!

the first time, a second time around by JustStandingHere (M, 24,267+ w., 4/? Ch. || WiP || HLV Divergence, Case Fic, Slow Burn, Lucid Dreaming, Mind Ghosts, Drug Use) – While resting and recuperating, Sherlock lucid dreams. John ruminates. In the meantime, two unconnected men have died in eerily similar ways in completely separate parts of London. It's a welcome distraction.

=====

OOOO!! This one sounds SUPER interesting!! I'm not sure if the author has a Tumblr, but hopefully they get a boost because of your recommendation!!!

Everyone go give this one some love!!! It's currently being written!

[plistommy]

Just… Steve and Billy swimming inside Steve’s pool during the summer of ’85, kissing and laughing as they let the night fall around them. And soon, the stars are up in the sky as they lay on the ground with a soft towel under them, bodies close and warm while Steve explains the star sings to Billy with a sweet smile.

And Billy?

Billy has never been this in love.

I've been trying to phrase things eloquently and I really can't so here you go. Part two really felt like it was trying have its cake and eat it as well in a lot of ways, and it really didn't work.

You give Cressida a whole redemption arc and friendship and put her in an impossible situation and humanise and make you sympathise with her, then want me to hate her again?

You show how Pen uses LW as a coping mechanism and how it's not good for her or those around her and not have her drop it?

You want LW revealed to the ton but no real consequences?

You double down on how Pens family treat her only to have them all come together and be forgiven at the end?

You sideline Colin in his own damn season and butcher Penelope so badly I almost wanted less of her as well?

You can't have everything. Not in such a short time span at least, and it really suffer from it. If you wanted to give Cressida more depth and expend on her role why was she tossed away like nothing at the end? Why did Eloise abandon her? Why was she treated as awful in part two after being put in an actual horror show of a situation? I know they needed the blackmail plot but you can't just give her depth, make her the antagonist and then drop her storyline in the drain that's not how that works. That's not complexity that's laziness, and laziness they created mind you.

They didn't have to write Cressida the way they did this season, if they wanted to make it easy they could have had her marry off screen between seasons to a rich man, they could have had Eloise befriending her be a mistake and had a different arc there, they could have had her LW claim be for any number of reasons, and her blackmail because she still has it out for Penelope. They added this to the story, and as much as I was sceptical at first (I have seen far too many botched bully redemptions) I was glad they did it aded a lot of depth and character interaction, it created some interesting parallels between Cressida and Penelope and seeing Eloise in a different, less intimate friendship with someone who, ironically, is a lot more open with her was interesting. Incomplete, but interesting. It was good, or it could have been. But you can't just turn like that and have it still work. You can't just have Eloise abandon her and have it treated as the right thing to do. You can't leave her with that ending and consider it a happy one. You can't have your cake and eat it too. You didn't create a complex antagonist, you created a scared lost girl who was cruel because she was taught to be and you left her to burn.

You could have had Penelope and Cressida talk to each other, could have explored the ways the mirror and the ways they differ. You could have had Penelope struggle, but untimely empathise with Cressida and help her out, she could have forgiven her for her years of torment because she of all people understands why she did it. You could have had her forgiveness mirror Colin and Eloise forgiving her for LW. You could have looked at how Cressida's openness helped her friendship with Eloise and how Penelope might start to incorporate it. About how by nature of Cressida's openness Eloise is learning to see other perspectives and listen more even if she still has work. You could have done so much with female friendship and camaraderie and empathy and you just... didn't.

The Lady Whistledown this season was just... I think I have a thesis which is most of my thoughts on Polin.

Whistledown was meant to be the subplot to the Polin storyline, not the other way around.

Putting aside my own wishes to have her end Whistledown for her character and for her and Colins relationship, and her love of Colin, her continuing it isn't unexpected I was afraid of this and thought it might happen even if it's lazy. If that was it and if it was handled better I think I could begrudgingly live with it. But it's not. Not only was it handled so so poorly it was the whole second part and for what? Part one was Polin. Part two was Lady Whistledown drama with some cute Polin moments sprinkled in-between with some mandatory angst. Tell me the resolution to Colins arc now. Quickly. You can't he didn't have one, we barley even saw him through Episode seven and eight. There is so much romance in your purpose being the person you love, IF and only IF, it's reciprocal. Penelope literally says in season two, when she has been Whistledown for over a bloody year that she hasn't found her purpose yet. They were meant to find each other. To both have their writing as their passion and creativity and fulfilment, not Whistledown, but her manuscripts, his stories from around the word their joint and secret words. But their centre, their purpose, their guiding light was always meant to be each other. It's what kept Penelope sitting at that window, it's what draw Colin to her at every ball. They had all the potential and set up to be the most beautiful, genuine, heartfelt relationship. But no.

Colin deserved to be angry. The woman he loves has lied, has hurt him, has his from him after all the times he was venerable with her and so, so much more. They deserved to argue. Penelope deserved to be more upset over this than crying in the moment and walking past him later. That's the man she loves, who she thinks hates her, who she know if he did hate her she would deserve it and she wouldn't blame him for a second. They deserved time and space and Colin deserved explanations and apologies. They deserved a later, happier wedding, they both deserved to have their feelings heard and said and listened too. Is that not the core of their relationship? Listening to and seeing each other? Would that not lay the groundwork for some really good well earned conflict and a really rewording resolution? The groundwork was all there that's what's killing me. The set up was all there for something so good which is why I was excited. I know screen time is limited, I know there is only so many emotional conversations you can have on screen, but Bridgerton primarily just people talking on conversations, when it's there bloody season surely they can space out the conversations that need to happen in a way that works with pacing. And to be honest, the screen time defence only works when the screen time that they did have was allocated well. And I'm not taking subplots. Even if I think a few could have been trimmed, the screen time Polin did get was just used so so badly. Colin got dust and that didn't even feel like Penelope had the time, just a mouth piece for the writers.

Rapid fire stuff because I need to expand on the above in more detail later lol.

The acting was flawless give everyone on that set their flowers.

I really like the Mondrich's and seem to be the only one who likes seeing them lol, their sweet and always a good time they just need a better storyline, or you know, one that actually has a resolution.

Not what I would have done for Benedict and I still want to see him look at art again but let's hope season 4 is better lol.

Don't like the way Penelope's family stuff was done, specifically Portia but it is what I thought would happen. Disappointed but not surprised. I'm biased tho so I won't speak on it too much. I lose too much objectivity.

Hate hate hate the baby thing tho, it was fine as a subplot with her sisters but her having the boy was predictable and also dear god the girls nineteen for fucks sake. No. Hated that.

Francesca the absolute love of my life. I adore her and John, I liked the conflicted with Violet, loved everything about her storyline this season she was perfect, my favourite part honestly lol. Also Michaela Stirling get behind me NOW. Sapphic Bridgerton fans truly are the bravest soldiers cause istg. Also I don't trust this fandom with any actor or actresses period but especially not a Black actress who's "ruining" your favourite storyline. So I will be greatly enjoying everything I see of all three of them Francesca John and Michaela, while watching with a sharp eye for any bullshit.

Kate, also the love of my life it was so lovely to have her back even if just for a bit. Wish they did more with Anthony especially him and Colin tho, but again, wasn't expecting much more. I do wish they would write them out with a bit more subtly tho it's getting almost funny how obvious it is.

The Violet, Marcus, Lady Danbury plot I didn't actually mind. Could have been trimmed a bit but it was good seeing the adults in more depth, I haven't watched queen Charlotte tho so I kinda feel like I missed some things.

Overall, I liked certain parts of this season I really did, especially if I fully ignore the context, and I'm happy for everyone who enjoyed it truly, but it was have an entirely different ending in my head. I'll definitely write about at some point but who knows if anyone wants to see that lol.

Occasionally I write stuff. I rarely post them on AO3. Here. 🤲🏽

Bingo card ~ 7.5k, Rating: Teens and Up

Takes place right after the church bombing in 1941, we follow Aziraphale and Crowley to the theatre and peek behind the scenes. Kissing. So. Much. Kissing.

Heaven isn't built to house a love like you and I ~ 37k, Rating: Teens and Up

Starting off right after the night at Crowley's flat, we take a peek into Aziraphale and Crowley's "precious, peaceful, fragile existence" they slowly carve out for themselves after Armage-not. We get to see Aziraphale slowly but surely reach out for the demon time and time again, bringing them closer than ever. Until Jim happens. And it all goes to shit.

SOOOO MUCH KISSING.

We keep this love in a photograph ~ 2k, Rating: General Audiences

1941-Bookshop. Aziraphale is reflecting back to his relationship with Crowley, trying to find some sort of logic in all those newfound feelings. Canon compliant so no actual kissing or anything else.

Undone ~ WIP 13/16 chapters out now, Rating: Teens and Up

Canon compliant-ish "What if...?" Story. What if Crowley had figured out Warlock wasn't the actual Antichrist a few days after he delivered the baby?

Crowley and Aziraphale move in next to the Youngs, posing as a married couple and help raise Adam as honorary uncles.

Just how awful would everything have been if they'd been at all competent?

This baby has got it all. Fake relationship, only one bed, slow burn, fluff, humour, some angst. By the end, 100ish thousand words of this.

I hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed writing them. If you did, there's more where those came from, in the works. 💕

[slytherheign]

let’s talk about the umbrella academy’s final season. HERE’S MY UNBIASED RATING AND NO SPOILER REVIEW FOR SEASON 4:

0/5.

i am serious about this. they ruined the characters we used to love. what i hoped would be the show’s redemption after a disappointing 3rd season turned out to be its ruin. kinda sad that the finale ended up like this. the last moments should’ve made me tear up or at least made me nostalgic, but no, i simply did not feel anything and was void of any emotions because of how they butchered the show. eps 1-4 were fun to watch but even then i can’t give it at least a 0.5 because of how they ended everything and made our favorite characters do things that they would never do. honestly, the last few episodes seemed like it was written by a 6th grader. i��d even go as far as saying that fanfic writers can do a better job at writing for this show. NOT WORTH WATCHING AT ALL. if you don’t want to hate this show, i suggest don’t even watch this season at all. just imagine what happens next in your head, trust me, it’s way better than what they have done. what hurt me the most was that they made me HATE the character that i LOVED so much for years. that was the final straw for me. i am not just disappointed, i am absolutely appalled.

they ruined everything. the story they built for 5 years resulted in an absolute garbage.

what an absolute shitshow.

i will pretend that the umbrella academy only had two seasons. only in that way could i even salvage even just a little love i had for these characters.

Avorah S3 Finale Fix-it, 1k words, rated G

[doodlingaway]

I did the thing, I wrote a post-S3 fix-it to both 1) try and give some rationalization for the India decision and 2) get them to see sense and come home lol. I was surprised by how much this process got me onto team "India could actually be really fun and not the worst idea," so I hope this fic captured my torn thoughts about it by the end.

Rating: T Pairing: Anthony/Kate Summary: Following Colin's wedding, Kate and Anthony scramble to depart for India. Only as the days speed by, Kate can't help but wonder if they are making the right choice.

OR

The post-S3 "you cannot tell me that Kate wants to spend her entire pregnancy on a boat" fic that I had to write after part 2.

[a-name-bruh-idk]

din had such a good set up- winning the darksaber from one of Mandalores biggest enemies. Getting a royal ship. Wearing pure beskar armour.

I think we all like the trope of reluctant king and from what we see in this ep and previous ones is that Din actually can communicate effectively with other species and settle disputes. He also literally the covert get land in Nevarro so they’re not dying from a giant lizard everyday.

He just had so much potential and I’m pissed they haven’t explored him being a ruler and focused on Bo instead.

forever be thinking of “i don’t wanna talk to anybody else, i don’t like anybody else” of jess because. the boy is just introvert same as rory. he prefer staying in his room and reads. being all cozy inside when it’s cold outside. never likes to hang out with other teenagers around his age. goes to the winter festival because he saw dean’s little annoying sister saying that rory would go with them and he couldn’t let her go alone with those annoying people. thinking of how rory always carries a book to everywhere she’s going. sitting on lunch breaks in chilton reading and listening to music. doesn’t really interact with anyone else unless she has to. thinking of luke’s “they’re up there all the time. they comes down for air from time to time.” to lorelai when she caught them making out but i’m also thinking of them. reading next to each other on the couch in complete silence. kissing on sidewalks. trading books. talking about everything and nothing at the same time. driving in jess car around town while listening to music. meeting on the bridge when it’s late at night and they just need a moment to think. but mostly thinking of them at luke’s - talking, sharing opinions about books, being all in love with each other and they doesn’t need anybody else anyways now that they got each other.

[batsplat]

Hello Bat!! I love love love reading your thoughts on things, from motogp to terrible 2000s tv shows. You mentionned great Smallville Lex/Clark fic in a recent post, and I was wondering: could you please share? I literally just finished rereading the Astolat's and still hunger for more.

yeah sure!! I'm kinda coasting off my ao3 history here (apparently I spent the entirety of 30/10/22 Having A Moment) so it's like,, a very imperfect list

okay, I'm gonna start with a bunch of seperis fics but I'd genuinely check out... all their stuff. it's just a fun read of the characters!! also there's so much of it and it's a good time to work your way through

A Handful Of Dust 47k words

At the end of the world, Lex can't stop running.

quite a dark and sad fic but I think about it a lot and it really works for me. it's basically a post-apocalyptic fic where the apocalypse is caused by clark being pushed over the edge and succumbing to his god complex. he's hunting down his former friends and allies, including lex. I think this kind of premise can easily be like... edgelord central 'ooh what if the hero were actually the villain', but this one feels true to the characters and their relationship + is very engaging

Advanced Masochism 8.6k words

In which Lex is curious as to why he's become a proxy stalker.

a small series that consists of lex trying to make the whole clark/lana situation work while doing his best to suppress his attraction to clark. lex's internal monologue in this is fun and punchy - though a lot of it is about his age gap to clark, which never like... feels THAT extreme in the show because tom welling *gestures*. but if that element makes you uncomfortable, I'd give this one a skip!

My Usual Lie 4.1k words

He wants to be so much more than that.

ice skating!! kinda melancholic but also idk a little sweet. it's clark spending time with lex after he's already grown up and they've already grown apart and clark misses the way it used to be between the two of them... again also ABOUT the age gap. lex is such a fun kinda slippery presence here, funny and kind but also a little detached

Frantic 9.1k words

In which Clark does not get dinner. And then everything goes downhill.

oh yeah I really enjoy re-reading this one. clark finally is forced to reveal his powers to lex at an inopportune moment, when evil goo is attempting to kill them both. no angst, just bickering

Resident Alien 2.7k words

It's tax season in the Luthor household.

just short and sweet and fun! established relationship, does what it says on the tin, lex is very into taxes. he's also very into clark

Closer to Breathing 8.6k words

Christmas parties at Luthor Manor. Boys sharing thoughts with brandy. And other things.

really lovely read, tender and fun and just kinda... nails a version of lex who is so very good at what he does, who might be loathed but can charm the small town people anyway, and a clark who stands at crossroads between being part of the small town and not liking the feeling of seeing lex play people like HIM (but not him). gets into a lot of the inherent tensions of that relationship!! love lex the outsider

Vix Te Agnovi 36.8k words

Clark gets a late-night call and interesting things happen.

again, age gap-centric warning!! lex asks clark to pick him up from a sex party. very much about the tension between the worldly metropolitan lex and the country boy hick clark, and both of them kinda entering into each other's worlds... lex reckoning how he's changed, clark curious and awkward and frustrated at being treated like a child (which. he very much is)

A Life More Ordinary 4.1k words

It wasn't sudden, and Lex didn't know it was happening until it had. And then he did.

aggressively not ABOUT superman, it's just about lex and clark. about lex and clark being flatmates. soft and gentle and intimate

Two Paths 21.8k words

Everything decided in one breath.

man I WISH there were more of the series. the basic premise is the whole smallville lie falls apart and lex is trusted to like... get clark out of there and hide him. so basically clark becomes his ward!! they live together!! lex needs to be an Adult who Takes Care of clark, but again. conflicted. this is just fun like it's such a funky dynamic that feels like an absolute perfect nightmare for lex specifically

and fics by other authors:

The Olive Branch by tasabian, 3.9k words

It's the holidays...which means Lex Luthor is keeping Superman very busy. But what is Lex's hidden agenda?

lex does crimes to get clark's attention. they're cute idc

When a Strawberry Is Pushed into a Mountain by Thamiris, 33.1k words

Away at college, Clark learns to read between the lines and finds his future there.

college!clark!! a few misunderstandings and tricky emotions that serve as a backdrop for the care clark and lex show for each other... I quite like it when fic doesn't like,, cut out their terrible parents

The Butterfly Effect by The Spike, 11.6k words

Lex can't let this Cassandra thing go.

remember that old prophecy lady from s1? well, what if lex injected himself with something that gave himself the power to see the future too, and was horrified and traumatised by what he saw? feat. clark taking care of him and papa kent playing the role of the homophobic dog

Going Home by mskatej, 5.5k words

Lex has amnesia.

amnesia future fic! clark comes to the rescue a little too late and takes care of lex. warning: the amnesia creates some issues of consent

where the colors are by museaway, 10.3k words

After Clark rescues Lex from Belle Reve, they flee to Canada to start a new life. Although his age and the need for discretion limit his options, Clark does his best to support them. But despite Clark's loyalty, Lex continues to have nightmares of his time in the asylum and worries that one day, Clark will leave him—or that the rescue was entirely in his head.

this scratches a very straightforward itch: the one where clark successfully saves lex in season three and chooses him. kinda nice and comforting even in its melancholy of not being able to return home again... y'know, sometimes you want something exactly like this

light the torch and pass it on by ang3lba3, 19.8k words

Clark starts behaving erratically, and it's up to Lois and Lex to figure out how to fix him. Thankfully, the paper cuts off there. Clark is faint, sweating. He thinks he’s hard. He checks. Yes. Yes, he is. He flips the paper over. In a deep purple ink, almost black, is an unsigned note. I think we can come to a mutually satisfactory conclusion on this matter. “Oh my god,” Clark whispers, thrilled. “He’s blackmailing me.”

lex/clark/lois. clark is having like... a weird alien hormone situation and it means he's weird towards both lex and lois. lex knows clark is superman but they're still very much enemies here, so this is the push that gets them to change their relationship. this one's just fun! sweet, good banter between lex/lois, it's obvious beneath it all how much they care for clark and clark does for them

The Milk and Cookies War by Punk, 6.2k words

Lex Luthor's Penthouse for Wayward Boys.

college!clark shows up at lex's place and makes himself at home. my favourite scene in this one is a brief interlude where lex is bitchy to his father

m2m by rivkat, 2k words

For thefourthvine, prompt: Craigslist. Clark gets curious about all those superhero kink offers.

what it says on the tin. I think you can probably guess who's demanding a superman lookalike. this fic made me laugh

Risk Management by tasabian, 7.3k words

A bad day for Metropolis reunites Clark and Lex.

future fic where lex almost dying sparks the reconciliation. ... I'd also just rec checking out all their fics tbh

The Grope of Destiny by suzvoy, 19.7k words

Clark had no idea how he was going to explain *this* one.

clark and lex are physically stuck together, and it's what prompts the reveal. always satisfying!!

Candy Cane Hearts by tasabian, 4.6k words

A new brand of candy makes Clark unusually mellow; Lex finds it all very confusing. Written for the Under Mistletoe challenge.

another christmas-y fic, another fic where clark acts weird! basically whenever you remove clark's inhibitions, he whisks lex off. just sweet and charming

No Choice by mskatej, 4.3k words

Clark is in heat.

okay. listen. you need to un-repress them, right. again, this is taking license of some weird alien biology. lex's blend of caring about clark so much and also needing him and also feeling weird about it and also being very into the whole alien thing but also kinda freaked by it... the classic dynamic

The Hinge Moment by tasabian, 14.8k words

Superman has a bad day; Lex just happens to be there.

clark kidnaps lex! but like, in a nice way. a lot of these fics don't REALLY engage with canon all that closely, but this is a future fic that definitely does. gives them the chance to actually have some conversations, y'know. some days I don't actually want them to forgive each other easily, but sometimes it's nice to scratch the itch of having slightly older and more mature versions of them figuring out their issues. really well written

I might add some more at some point but I only had the energy to go through a few right now lol and well I imagine you'd rather like them now than in like. three months. also psa: pLEASE feel free to send in smallville fic recs to this account, I'm always happy to receive them

[sighonaraa]

yippeeeeee thank u!! this is a wippet from the jamie-centric s3 fix-it, which i have been plugging away at for many moons now:

At Ms. Welton’s da’s funeral, Jamie sat next to Dani and listened as Ms. Welton filled a church with a rick roll that would’ve made Mum piss herself laughing, years ago when she still did things like laugh, when she still did things like tuck away with Jamie on the couch so they could watch the comedies on the telly together. He hadn’t joined in, ’cause he’d never met Ms. Welton’s da, and so the only figure his mind had been able to conjure had been his own da, a sharp, dark shadow in the corners of his vision. It weren’t a figure worth singing to. The thought of it had made him want to collapse in on himself like a black hole, the sort Moe had been telling ’em all about in the locker room at the tail end of winter. He’d enjoyed the image--an absence where there’d once been a presence, leaving no trace of him behind. Anyway. So he hadn’t sang. He’d sat there, hands beneath his thighs, and wondered if maybe he really was the problem. Because here was the other, more secret thing: He’d stared at that coffin, and pretended it was his da’s body in there, and he hadn’t felt a goddamned thing.

Timothy Stoker my beloved

Stoking the Flame

Summary: Jenny and Beau have been ignoring the spark between them for a long time. How much longer can they continue?

Pairings: Beau Arlen x Jenny Hoyt

Warnings/Explicit 18+: Light smut, kissing, groping, implied smut.

Word Count: 727

A/N: So, I was unhappy that we didn't even get a Beau/Jenny kiss in the finale. Then I read THIS interview with Jensen, where he says:

Jensen: [Laughs] Or would you have rather seen, like, boom, kiss, and the bedroom door flies open, and we’re just hungrily attacking each other, and we fall onto the bed, boom credits?

... ... ...

Maybe it’s now time to drop those walls down and start opening up to this person — which we know when you do that, that just leads to more things. So I think had there been 15 more minutes of the episode, we probably would’ve seen Beau leaving the next morning.

And I knew immediately that I had to try and give us what might have happened in those 15 minutes at least. 🥵🫠

So, here goes. ❤️ I threw this together kinda quick, cause I wanted to get it out there while the finale was still fresh in people's minds. So sorry for any glaring mistakes. ❤️😊

The beautiful dividers below and at the bottom were created by @firefly-graphics

Beau slid his big hand over the rounded bend of Jenny's knee, and she felt an electric buzz of pleasure begin emanating from where his palm and long fingers warmed her skin through the denim she wore.

He looked into her eyes again as she slid her hand over his where it rested on her knee. In his eyes she could see the same warmth and glimpse of desire that she'd seen from him before.

It had been there from day one.

Under the cover of antagonism and teasing, behind the barriers of obligations and professionalism, there had burned the embers of a fire she knew would quickly flare to life if they ever dared to stoke the flames for even a moment.

Beau broke their locked gaze, as he usually did, looking away into the fire. But he squeezed her knee gently, letting her know without words that he wasn't pulling away completely.

She leaned into him a little closer and laid her head on his wide shoulder, his jacket slightly rough beneath her cheek. He kissed the top of her head before resting his cheek against it.

They stayed that way for a while, knowing that they could continue on like this, simply giving each other comfort and staring into the flames; they wouldn't be going any further, they wouldn't be risking anything, they could still make believe they were just partners, just friends.

They could stay like this and stay safe.

But as though by silent, simultaneous agreement they pulled out of the easy embrace, turning to look at one another. Their gazes connected again and Jenny knew Beau wasn't leaving tonight.

She knew it before she watched his eyes slide down to her mouth. She knew it before her tongue flicked out to moisten her suddenly parched lips.

And sure enough Beau raised his hand to her cheek as he had once before, pushing a lock of her long blonde hair behind her ear.

His voice was deep and rich, his light Texan drawl thickening slightly as he spoke quietly.

"I can go, if you want."

Jenny was shaking her head before he'd even finished his sentence, reaching up to brush her fingertips across the mouth that had thoroughly distracted her on more than one occasion.

"No, stay." She said simply. If she said anything more she was afraid the words would scare away her daring. So she simply leaned forward, grasping the lapels of his jacket. She parted her lips slightly in invitation and Beau wasted no more time, settling his mouth against hers gently.

His lips slotted around her top lip, sucking delicately. The light tug cause a soft moan to fall from Jenny's throat which brought on a much rougher answering groan from Beau.

And just like that the fire between them was raging as she had always known it would - Beau plunging his hands into her hair, Jenny pushing the jacket from his shoulders, him tilting her head to the angle he wanted so he could sweep his tongue deep into her mouth, tasting her completely.

Their hands were in a flurry, tugging at clothes, desperate to feel each other's skin.

Beau got his hand up under the hem of Jenny's shirt, and squeezed her waist, dimpling her flesh with hard fingers.

Jenny had the buttons open on Beau's shirt in mere seconds, ripping at a few of the stubborn ones. She slid her hands over his wide chest before running her nails down his torso. He shivered slightly and grunted into her open mouth and Jenny felt her core muscles clench at the sound.

She grinned slightly against Beau's lips, as they both paused in their desperate groping, having finally made contact with bare skin.

"I don't know about you," Jenny whispered, her voice low and slightly shaky, "But I've thought about this quite a bit, and a rushed, desperate, quickie on the couch isn't really what I had pictured."

Beau chuckled softly and the sound was warm, welcoming and sexy as hell. "No, I definitely had something slower in mind."

The heated anticipation in his words had Jenny jumping up and tugging him roughly to his feet.

"Then let me show you the rest of my place, Sheriff."
