Can I Ask You a Question..?

Pairing: Bradley 'Rooster' Bradshaw x Jake 'Hangman' Seresin.

Summary: This is loosely based on 'Can I Ask You a Question..?' by Taylor Swift (and Jake's "mind if I ask a personal question?")

Warnings: N/A

Word Count: a smidge over 1k.

Authors Note: crossposted on AO3. this will eventually have multiple chapters so this may end up getting its own lil masterlist.

Pushing the door shut behind him as he stepped out onto the deck. The final rays of sunlight danced over the water; sparkling off the waves that rolled into shore in the distance and casting shadows on everything in its path as it dipped below the horizon. It was a sight to behold - a sight that Brad would never get sick of. Pausing in his step by the rail, the male raised the beer bottle in his grasp to his lips to finish it off. Placing it beside him, hands went to rest on the deck rail, bracing him as he leaned on it.

Despite being somewhat of a party lover, there were times when he needed to step away from all of that. To take a few minutes to decompress and regather.

The noise grew as someone opened the door, evidently making their way out onto the deck. Glancing over his shoulder, he took note of Jake making his way over to the railing, leaning on it beside him. Only a mere few inches away. There was a slight nod of acknowledgment to each other. No speaking, as though neither wanted to be the first to talk.

So that’s how they stood. . For several minutes.

“Can I ask you a question, Roo?”

The words broke the quiet ambiance that the pair shared. Dark hues flickered away from the crashing waves in the distance to focus on the blonde, shadows caused by the interior light dancing over Jake's features. Moving to lean forward on the railing, now propped up by his forearms - gaze trailing back to the waves as he nodded.

“Promise it’s better than last time.” There was a hint of laughter following the blonde’s words this time. Bradley let a laugh escape, shaking his head light-heartedly. God. That interaction seemed like an eternity ago now - though this time his intention appeared to be more sincere.

"Yeah, you can.”

Bradley’s words were almost spoken under his breath, only loud enough for the pair to hear. Not that anyone else on the deck could hear them, the muffled noise from inside drowning out any soft noises.

There was a pause after Brad’s words, as though Jake was hesitating in asking the question. A pause that had the brunette worried. Was it a bad question? One that would cause tension? He didn’t know, but it had him nervous. Digits started picking at the flaking paint on the railing as he waited, gaze trailing down to focus on his actions.

“When was the last time you were kissed?” There was a wavering of hesitation in the blonde’s voice, words rushed as though he was aching to get them out. Brad’s gaze snapped to Jake, brows furrowed in confusion and curiosity. A hint of color rushed to his cheeks.

“What-?”

“You heard me, Bradshaw.”

“Why do you want to know?” There was exasperation laced through Bradley’s words, unable to believe what he’d just been asked. Though, he was racking his mind in an attempt to remember the last time he was kissed. A long time.

“Call it professional curiosity.”

Dark brown hues had shifted away to look inside the bar. He could simply walk away, ignore the question. But he owed Jake more than that. In his mind, at least, he did. There was a moment of hesitation as he cleared his throat, jaw clenching shut for a beat.

“A few months. . Maybe more. Don’t keep count.” His words were followed by a soft laugh. Was it genuine or something to keep from making the conversation awkward? The brunette went to turn back to lean on the railing when he was stopped by Jake’s hand on his elbow, a gentle tug being given - so he stayed facing him. A nod was given by the blonde in acknowledgment to his response.

The pair watched each other in silence for what felt like an eternity - but in reality was probably a minute. Unmoving, as though they were statues. Their stare was holding, longer than it did in the locker room or the hangar. Though this time it was holding more emotion; no need to hide the feelings that were there - on account of no one being around that they had to hide them from. The small space between them closed ever so slightly as Jake edged closer, his head tilting to the side.

“I still don’t. . Why’d you want to know?”

There was no response from the blonde - just a moment passing before his hands came to rest on Brad’s cheeks. Pulling him down slightly before his lips pressed against Brad's roughly. The brunette's hues fluttered shut as he stood there. Hesitating, unsure of how to react to the kiss. The hesitation lasted barely a few seconds before a hand was coming to rest on Jake’s side, digits curled into the fabric of his shirt gently; his other hand finding its way to rest on one of the blonde’s hands. Another beat and Brad was returning the kiss, lips moving in sync. God. He’d wanted this for as long as he could remember - which was vague, to say the least. At its shortest, he’d wanted it since that night in the Hard Deck; at its longest the day they’d met.

Several moments passed before the pair retreated from the kiss, foreheads still resting against the others. Deep breaths fell from their lips in unison, attempting to regain their breath. Brad let his hand trail down the blonde's arm slightly, digits digging into his skin gently.

“Okay, maybe it wasn’t professional curiosity. .” The blonde's words came out breathlessly, “It was personal curiosity.” A soft laugh had fallen from the brunette’s margins in response to that, shaking his head slightly.

Personal curiosity? He could live with that.

“Okay then. . My turn,” Brad’s words were soft, hands trailing down slightly so that digits could loop in the male's belt loop. A gentle tug was being given to full Jake in closer, lips finding their way to his once more in a chaste kiss.

“Can I ask you a question?”
