Anything about Patrick Kane and his mouth/tongue

Anything

It could be fluff, sexy, angst

It could be him chewing up his mouth guard during a game

"Peekaboo!"

Nobody has called Patrick that in ages. That's because there's really only one person who calls him this anymore, and he hasn't seen that certain someone in forever.

"Sharpy!"

Sharpy grins, arms spread wide, and it's the most natural thing in the world to let himself fall into them. Sharpy's chuckle is warm and low, sending a pleasant glow through Patrick, and he snuggles a tiny bit closer, soaking up Sharpy's presence.

"It's been forever."

"It has." Sharpy sighs, nose burying itself in Patrick's curls. Patrick hums. He knows he's gonna have to step back soon, they're already way over the length of an acceptable bro-hug, but Patrick can't quite make himself let go yet. As if reading his mind Sharpy's arms tighten around Patrick, hugging him closer. Seems like Sharpy's missed him almost as much as Patrick has. The knowledge fills Patrick with another warm burst, sending tingles down his spine. "It's been too long, but I'm here now."

Patrick should've known they'd end up here again. Sooner or later, they always do. This time it barely took them, what, three hours? from Sharpy's arrival to Sharpy's dark eyes tracking every one of Patrick's movements while he gnaws on the straw of his coke zero. Back in the day, this would've been a G&T. Hell, back in the day they probably would've skipped drinks and gone straight up to Patrick's hotel room instead.

"Everything good at home? Fam doing alright?" Sharpy asks, now that they've caught up on hockey and their lives, given each other the cliff notes of everything that's happened since the last time they saw each other.

"Yep," Patrick confirms, popping the p. He licks his lower lip, half because it's habit but half because it makes Sharpy twitch every time, lean in a little closer across the table. Patrick suppresses a self-satisfied smirk. He's too old to openly gloat about his wins, nowadays. Doesn't mean he won't enjoy them, though.

"Good, good." There's a pause, and then Sharpy clears his throat, looking around before settling back on Patrick again. "What do you say we move the rest of this night somewhere more private?"

Pat allows himself the grin, then, already pushing back his chair. "Yeah, sure. You can come up to mine."

"Fuck, Peeks," Sharpy groans, "you're a fucking menace, teasing me all through dinner."

"Me?" Patrick asks, feigning innocence. Sharpy won't buy it for a second; Pat's not actually trying to convince him here. "All I did was eat my steak."

"All you did was fellate that fork in a restaurant full of people with camera phones."

"Jealous?"

"Shameless."

Patrick hums. This right here, this is always his favorite part of the proceedings. "Want me to get another fork, give you a private show instead?"

Two seconds later he's got two of Sharpy's fingers shoved in his mouth, pressing down on Patrick's tongue, a welcome weight. "How about I give you something better to suck on, instead?"

Pat groans, the sound muffled, his eyes already sliding half-closed. There's a thrill racing down his spine, pooling somewhere low in his belly. Now that the chase is over, the real fun can begin.

My 14.5 hour Flight to Korea

I've done the thing! I have officially completed my journey to Korea, and now I am settling in to my new apartment. The flight was not an easy one, especially with so much anxiety about this huge change I am making. However, I am so happy and proud of myself for making the journey on my own, and thrilled to finally be in Korea!

This post is a rundown of my ~long~ journey to Korea:

the night before: unable to sleep due to ~anxiety~. I had a great time with my friends and family eating some of my fave American foods that I'll miss, and hanging out with some of the people I'll miss most. As I'm winding down for the night and preparing for my flight the next day I realize...I STILL do not have my Covid test results that are crucial to making a flight in this pancreas.

If you haven't flown during this panini press yet (which is for the best, I assure you) you need to have a negative Covid test result with you in order to board the plane, but it must be dated within 72 hours. I also needed this to get off the plane, which means the earliest I could take the test for my Monday arrival was Friday... and the results weren't posted as of Saturday night. Every test I'd taken so far (and unfortunately I've had quite a lot of them) has taken less than 24 hours for results...so I was panicking. Like literally calling the airline asking them WHAT HAPPENS IF I DON'T HAVE MY RESULTS (answer: you simply do not fly). So this made for a very restless night.

7am: Test results were posted and everything was literally so fine.

8:30am: I leave for the airport in New York with my parents and sister who so kindly drove me and saw me off. We also stopped for my last Wawa run 😭

10am: Arrive at the airport super early. Like the airline clerks haven't clocked in yet early. So I wait until 10:30a to check-in.

Then I go through the arduous process of airport security, which tbh wasn't the worst I've ever experienced. My bags did get checked multiple times though by TSA for some reason #sus

11:30am: Now, we wait for the flight. I am so grateful to all my family members & friends who checked in on me that day! I didn't feel so alone in the airport. My regrets: not buying any snacks before I got on that flight.

1:50pm: Take off! I had my own row on the plane so I was really satisfied that I could stretch out and take up space on the long journey. I settled in for the 14.5 hour journey.

Things I did on the flight:

- listened to my Spotify playlist

-tried to figure out how to get my headphones to work for the in-flight movies. never figured that one out

-played the Sims

-played my Switch

-attempted to sleep, but only managed a few 1 hour naps

-ate shitty vegetarian meals and regretted my decision to opt for meatless because the other meals looked really good RIP

~4:45am EST/ 5:45pm KST: I LAND!! I was so happy to be on land, to stretch my legs, and to get hooked up to that sweet sweet WiFi. My family wasn't really awake yet, but my recruiter & school director were messaging me to help me through the airport process.

Customs & Immigration was by far the most arduous aspect of this journey. For two hours I carried my little documents to at least seven different tables with seven different lines and attempted to communicate with the clerks at the airport, praying there were no issues with my visa, Covid test, etc. But everything went smoothly, and I was free~

Or as free as Korea is letting travelers be in this pon de replay 😅

7:45pm KST: I meet my driver who will take me from the Incheon airport to my apartment in Seoul. She didn't speak much English but she was very sweet to me. It was on this car ride that the exhaustion truly hit me and I nodded off a few times. I barely saw anything of the drive I was so tired.

8:45pm KST: I arrive at my new apartment! My driver took me all the way up to my apartment door, where my school director & building manager were still cleaning out my room and setting it up. I was okay with this because I could meet my director in person and she showed me how to set up my WiFi & SIM card, work the appliances etc.

I am super grateful my school stocked my apartment so well, I haven't been wanting for anything! I have food for two weeks, kitchen & bath items, cleaning supplies, even pillows and bedding. My recruiter and director repeatedly check in on me and offer to provide me with anything else I'll need. I even got access to food delivery apps using my director's card since I don't have my own card here yet.

10pm KST: I pass the frick out.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So there you have it! After many hours of nerves I finally made it here to South Korea. I absolutely love my new apartment, and from what I've seen of my neighborhood so far it seems like there is so much to do and see right in my own area! Now, I settle in for 2 weeks of quarantine until I'm free to roam~

Until next time!~
