“Kid, you are something else.”
It’s rare to hear Slade like this. Not sarcastic or mocking, but breathless and happy.
Jason laughs as Slade kisses down his neck, across his shoulders, beard rubbing deliciously against his skin. He lets out a grunt as Slade pulls out of him, and he almost wants to pull the older man back to him. He wants Slade in him, on him, everywhere.
Jason had almost forgotten what happiness feels like. He certainly didn’t expect to find it here.
He watches lazily as Slade cleans them up. Turns out the most deadly assassin in the world can be quite gentle when he wants to be.
“You gonna stay or what, old man?” Jason asks, cupping Slade’s jaw.
He tries to sound like he doesn’t really care. He knows Slade can read him like a book though.
“You want me to stay, kid?” Slade murmurs, squeezing Jason’s thigh with one large hand.
Fuck, he’s got a nice voice. And nice hands. And a nice dick. He’s so fucking handsome.
And Jason can’t believe he’s fucking swooning.
“I’ll make you breakfast in the morning.” Jason grins. “Bacon, eggs, waffles, pancakes. You won’t regret it.”
“If you want me to stay, I’ll stay,” Slade says, his blue eye fixed on Jason.
He wants Jason to say it. And Jason knows that Slade doesn’t want to hear him say it to humiliate or embarrass him; he wants to hear Jason say it because he wants to hear that that’s really what Jason wants.
Jason remembers Dick telling him once that there are two ways you can show someone you love them.
The first is to allow yourself to be vulnerable with them.
“I want you to stay,” Jason says quietly.
Slade’s lips twitch. “I’ve been offered a last minute contract in South America. Four million. I’d need to leave tonight.”
The second way you can show someone you love them, Dick had told him once, is sacrifice.
“So those pancakes had better be damn good,” Slade chuckles, leaning down for an uncharacteristically chaste kiss.
Jason smiles, warm and genuine. “Not sure they’re worth four million.”
“Kid. Your ass alone is worth four million.” Another kiss. “The rest of you is priceless.”
Jason is not fucking swooning.
