[imthepilot]

In the last week of Bodhi’s medical leave, he worked himself hard. When he wasn’t in the barrack gym working out, he was studying the specs of his new ship. And when he wasn’t doing that, he was cooking. He had the freezer in Galen’s room stocked with pre-packed meals and ready-made spice blends that could be added to bland meals to make them palatable. As well as restocking his own travelling collection.

He wasn’t sleeping much either.

He was just coming back from the gym when Galen got off work, stripped down and sweaty.

Comments

[galen_erso]

Galen follows soon after, burying himself deep into Bodhi as he spills copiously and hotly, with a long groan of utter abandon,

[imthepilot]

Bodhi rests his head against the tiles, reaching back an unsteady hand to cup the back of Galen's head. "Love you."

[galen_erso]

Galen leans heavily against him, barely able to stand.

"Love you too."

He tries to turn his head to somehow kiss Bodhi's lip, catching just the corner of his mouth.

[imthepilot]

Bodhi turns his head in a hazy sloppy kiss, panting roughly. "That was... perfect."

[galen_erso]

"All the sticky stuff is just gone, too," Galen says, voice still rough as he sums up the advantages of shower sex.

Followed by another kiss.

[imthepilot]

Bodhi huffs a laugh and presses back against Galen in an effort to deepen that kiss. Wet, warm and happy.

[galen_erso]

Galen looks into his eyes, full of happiness and love.

And kisses him again, deep and soft and slow.

[imthepilot]

Bodhi pulls away enough to turn, to hold Galen properly. To kiss him deeply. "Thank you. I've wanted that since... since the first time we kissed."

[galen_erso]

Galen holds him and sighs with happiness. "To make love to me in a water fresher?"

[imthepilot]

Bodhi smiles and cups Galen's cheek. "Something like that, yes." It's a touch more poetic than Bodhi would have said it but near enough.

[galen_erso]

"Wherever we will live when all this is over," Galen says under the running water, "we must make sure we get one of these!"

[imthepilot]

"We'll find a world with plenty of water." Bodhi promises, stroking Galen's cheek, following the drops of water as they follow the curves of Galen's neck and shoulder.

[galen_erso]

Galen sighs. "And in need of a good energy source, and good Jedhean cooking," he says.

[imthepilot]

"That narrows it down a bit." He kisses Galen with the warm lethargy of the afterglow. "But it never hurts to have sensible search parameters."

[galen_erso]

"Pondering search parameters," Galen chuckles. "Never change, Bodhi. My pilot."

[imthepilot]

"What till I start talking in approach vectors and course deviation." Bodhi teases, leaving in to molest Galen's throat. "Hoe will you resist me then?"

[galen_erso]

"I'll plot course deviations towards places underneath your clothes," Galen says, leaning back his head and sighing with pleasure.

[imthepilot]

Bodhi gives a soft groan and shakes his head, coming up to kiss Galen deeply. "You're awful."

He holds Galen tight against him, their bodies warm under the shower.

[galen_erso]

"Totally terrible," Galen agrees. "Let's finish ourselves off here and then go snuggle on the bed."

He really says 'snuggle'.

[imthepilot]

And Bodhi loves him for it, smiling warmly. "Yes, let's. But just so you know, I want to do this again." He drops his voice, breath hot on Galen's cheek as he whispers it. "Only with me on my knees, pressed against the tiles as I go down on you."

[galen_erso]

Galen's breath hitches; then, he scratches his wet hair as he pretends to think.

"Yes please," he says. "But not now. Not right away. I wouldn't be up to it. I'm no longer twenty."

[imthepilot]

Bodhi laughs at the pretence and reaches for the wash cloth, making quick work of cleaning them both up. "I'm sure I could coax you into it. I'm told I'm very good."

[galen_erso]

"Excellent," Galen says. "The best. But my base of comparison is small."

[imthepilot]

Bodhi laughs and turns off the water, turning in the drying cycle and fluffing his hair to make it dry faster. "You really know how to boost a guy's confidence."

[galen_erso]

"You are exactly right for me, and that's all that counts," Galen states plainly while smoothing his hair into place, somewhat unsuccessfully. Galen Erso doesn't have it in him, ever, to look slick and suave.
