And I’d choose you; in a hundred lifetimes, in a hundred worlds, in any version of reality, I’d find you and I’d choose you.

jack flinches a little at eddie’s words, shrinking in on himself and feeling like he’s now useless. he doesn’t know what he’s suppose to do, he feels lost and not having a place. his life before was horrible, filled with pain and humiliation everyday, but at least he knew his place. now he’s just confused, and he’s scared. hoping to reach out to someone but eddie doesn’t seem to want it. 

“i…i….i just….” the words are hard to get out, he stammers and feels his cheeks flushing, trying not to appear weak or cry because he’s so useless that he can’t even speak right, “i just want to…to express….my gratitude…and…i…i want to….to be loyal….my choice…”

a sigh leaves eddie’s lips and his expression softens. a GENTLE hand reaches out and curls around jack’s neck. the man looks so small now, even though eddie knows he really isn’t. it’s HEARTBREAKING and they’ve barely known each other. he only wants jack to be happy, healthy, safe. all nigh impossible given the state of the world, but even that can’t stop eddie from TRYING.

“i know. you’re grateful. i get that — i DO.” the others may have been part of the group eddie led, but he’s the one who had personally checked on jack, taken out the man’s abuser. “i just need to know that anything you do, it’s because you WANT to. not because you feel obligated. in this group, you’re always your own person first. you don’t have to do anything if it makes you uncomfortable. not a DAMN thing.”

“oh i don’t know, captain, blood is a good look on you…gets me all, pumped up…” jack smirks as he moves closer to his dearest eddie, practically towering over the other as he invades the other’s personal space, looking into those beautiful eyes.

no one would take his dearest away from him, he would kill anyone on this ship who even dares to try and he just did. reaching out with bloody hands to take hold of his captain’s head, tilting it to look up, “no one is taking you away from me, i won’t let them.”

eddie’s eyes fill with the closest thing to AFFECTION he’s ever managed, lips parting to allow for a small breath in something akin to relief. ( a person less-versed in eddie’s behavior may believe the look he’s giving jack is one of love, but it’s merely an imitation. )

“good.” the word barely leaves his lips, gaze tied to jack’s. it isn’t every day he shows any kind of VULNERABILITY, but when he does, it’s only around the man before him. his left hand comes up to rest palm against jack’s chest as he takes a small step forward. “you have me. now, are you gonna kiss me?”

to say that jack massively freaked out would have an understatement. the moment he heard about what happened, he practically bolted to the location of the incident and likely would have tackled everyone out of the way to eddie if people didn’t have the idea to move aside once they saw him barreling down the street.

eddie was suppose to be recovering, relaxing, not fighting an armed robber.

“for the sake of my heart, and your heart, please do not do that again…ever…” jack likes to think that he is handling it as well as he can, his voice hasn’t gone to screech level yet, and he’s calm, well, at least he thinks he’s calm. he might be having heart palpitations, who knows. “there are people who can handle these things, people who are healthy, please, please, just…control those cop instincts…for me?”

“my heart is FINE.” a bit of an overstatement. he’s yet to adjust to his scar and even a light jog will tighten his chest in a way that makes it impossible to BREATHE. he’d love to say this was just a one-time thing, but he’s never been the type to turn away from those who need HELP. “and your heart is fine. you’re not the one who got SHOT just a few weeks ago, so i don’t want to hear it!”

he’s mostly teasing — evident in his tone that he’s trying to play this off.

“by the time anybody else got there, the bad guys would have gotten away,” eddie explains softly, trying his best to CALM the other. perhaps it would have been better had he had a gun or literally anything that could have helped him in a fight aside from his own two hands, but he’d managed to get by without a scratch. if nothing else, as an added benefit, he’s already been offered a job with nypd whenever he heals up. the line about him being a cop on medical leave certainly helped his case. “i was never in any REAL danger.”

Len was speechless for a long time. He’d never even considered the possibility of getting married, never thought he’d find himself in a relationship that would possibly lead to something like this. Even when he’d gotten romantically entangled with Eddie he didn’t consider that to be a possibility. However that didn’t mean that he didn’t want it. But a little voice nagged at him still trying to get him to be a bit more logical about things.

“What about your job?” he asked. He wanted to say yes, god he wanted to. But he also wanted to make sure that Eddie knew what he was getting himself into. Even if Len gave up his life of crime he’d still have a criminal record and if anyone found out that could cause complications. If he was going to say yes to this, he wanted to make sure that they both knew the risks.

“i love my job.” being a cop is in eddie’s dna. and yeah, being MARRIED to a known criminal could complicate things a bit, but they’ve made it work until now. being married to leonard can’t possibly be that much worse than DATING him. their relationship has never been easy, but it has been worth it. of course, had someone told eddie two years ago that he’d be proposing to someone who operates on the WRONG side of the law, he would have laughed it off.

but now here he is. no doubts holding him back.

“i also love YOU and while i do intend to keep my job at the department as long as possible...” one of these days, they’ll know he’s COMPROMISED. he’s never once let his relationship with len interfere with his ability to work, but even that could come to an END someday.

“losing you would be too hard.” after all, they’ve come this far already. “i don’t expect you to CHANGE who you are or what you do. i would never ask you to do that. we may be different, but i fell in love with you and i’m prepared to do WHATEVER it takes to be with you.”

he slowly crawls back into the bed, straddling fitz as he hovers over his boyfriend, hands and knees pressing into the mattress beneath them. in one slow, ‘push up’-like movement, eddie leans down to press a soft kiss to fitz’s lips and then pulls away only to roll over to the space beside fitz, head turned so that he can still see the other man.

a smile is easily worn, pure HAPPINESS visible even in his eyes. there’s no place he’d rather be than here. this is home for him. eddie lets out a small hum.

“you know, i think we could get away with not going into work today,” he suggests. it isn’t something he’s truly likely to do himself without a little convincing, but the THOUGHT is nice. just the idea that he and fitz could stay home, in each other’s arms.

that he could keep fitz SAFE.

it’s our boys, @wildthiiing.

“look, buddy, i TOLD you — i didn’t rescue you for your loyalty, or whatever.” jack’s as bad as a lost puppy, looking for someone to give all of its love to. eddie doesn’t NEED it. doesn’t want it. there’s a world out there that needs SAVING. one day, caitlin’s going to find a cure for all this. either her or cisco or some other scientist who’s still alive out there. eddie just needs to protect as many people as he can until that day finally comes.

“you don’t owe me anything. IT’S OKAY. i was never going to leave you there.”

one more bc i am trash for @thompsonlegacy.

captain of the iss destiny may not sound QUITE as impressive as if he were captain of the enterprise, but his position is still one ENVIED by those beneath him. still, he can’t help but smirk in the aftermath of an attempt on his life. only two men remain standing: THAWNE himself and the ONE member of his security team who had done his job and protected him. eyes light up even with the blood running slowly down the side of his face.

“if i knew you were waiting for an OPPORTUNITY to get physical with me, i would have suggested something a little less BLOODY. not that i’m complaining.”

coughs even more obnoxiously @thompsonlegacy.

“i KNOW you were worried, jack. i’m sorry.” he’d just gone across the street for some food. being holed up in jack’s apartment is better than the infirmary at SHIELD, but he’s still all alone when jack is gone, when isaac is busy. eddie understands, of course. their jobs are demanding. he can’t hold that AGAINST them. but stopping an armed robbery just days after being released from shield’s care isn’t exactly what they meant when they told him to RELAX.

he’s lucky his heart didn’t give out on him.

“nobody got hurt. that’s the IMPORTANT thing, right? i couldn’t just stand there and do nothing. i’m still a cop.” maybe temporarily unemployed, but a cop at heart. always.

coughs obnoxiously @thompsonlegacy.

psssst. i probably shouldn’t be posting this at one in the morning but anybody reading this post should give it a LIKE to get a starter. note that if we don’t have any previously plotted verses, i’m most likely to send you an im to discuss ideas, even if only briefly.
