Summary
Josh (age 24) and Sam (age 20) meet in the summer of 1984, fall in love, and enter into a committed, non-closeted relationship. They still end up on Bartlet’s Senior Staff; Bartlet does not have MS. Sam is elected to the Senate in a special election in 2001, and becomes President after Bartlet’s second term. This is the saga of how they make their way together despite their anxieties, insecurities, and bouts of occasional outright idiocy.

"I am going to start bribing Donna into bringing you lunch," Steve answers, draining the noodles under the faucet in Sam's sink.
"I am not sure if the nation is ready for the two of you to start conspiring," Sam laughs. "She is a force of nature, and you are Captain America."
Steve and Donna have been in the same room only once so far. Leo's ordered that the one time is one too many for the Bartlet Administration. Josh is under strict orders to keep them apart. "We aren't that bad."
"You'll go out to buy a candy bar and end up overthrowing the government," Sam says, and he is maybe only twenty percent joking.

Summary
Josh and Donna were married in secret before President Bartlet took office. As they move through President Bartlet's first term, it's getting more and more difficult to keep their marriage under wraps due to crafty political maneuvers, observant friends and co-workers, and at times, their own missteps. Josh and Donna learn to navigate (secret) married life, balance the personal with the political, and grow together as a couple as they try to keep their relationship from the public.

Sam’s eyes dart down to Josh’s lips. “You really think you could’ve done better?”
Josh hesitates for a second, then sets the unopened beer bottles down on the counter.
“I know I could’ve.”

Summary
A snapshot from the Bartlet For America's first campaign trail if Sam and Josh were in a semi-established yet secret relationship. A thought process of what happens when you won't give up politics for the man you love, and he would never want you to. They're already living on borrowed time but that doesn't mean they can't pretend otherwise.

Summary
Sam says, “Alright. Here it is. I want your fingers fisted in the sheets, in my hair. I want you too overwhelmed to even make noise. I want you to feel pleasure so strong it's impossible to remember what it's like not to feel pleasure. You’re going to focus on me and let everything else float away, because it’s not important. Not right now. We’re not leaving this bed until we’ve made you forget your own name, let alone how many degrees you have or what your job is or what the state of the world is right now. Got that?”
Josh wets his lips, his eyes darkening. “Hot damn, Seaborn. Let’s hope you can walk the walk.”
or
Josh had the week from hell, and at last, it's over. Sam knows just the cure.

Summary
She shut her eyes and drew in her breath, then let it out, and said this as she exhaled:
“I want you to punish me, Sam.”
“Come here, Ainsley,” he said, with a sternness she hadn’t expected, a firm edge that thrilled and terrified her at once. “I’m going to give you something you’ve had coming for quite some time.”
--
In "The Lame Duck Congress" (S2 E6), Sam asks Ainsley to edit a memo he's prepared for President Bartlet. Ainsley writes a 2-page summary, but reverses Sam's position. Sam gives Ainsley a withering look and says, tersely, "would you step inside, please?" They enter his office and the scene cuts away - and returns to them an hour and a half later.
(See the clip here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD9YJARRY04)
What happened in those missing 90 minutes?
Here's an idea...
For those who have always been left hanging by the sexual tension between this pair, and wanted to see Ainsley, a classic brat, get exactly what she deserves.
If you like stories about spanking between semi-consenting adults (since real-life boss-employee relationships are never consensual!), you will probably like this. If you don't, you probably won't. You have been forewarned.

Summary
You join the Bartlet campaign to help with digital marketing and outreach, back in 1998. Your parents are long time friends of CJ Cregg and she invites you to join the campaign and later The White House senior staff as deputy press secretary working under CJ. You and Sam Seaborn hit it off, becoming great friends and coworkers. Because he'd never be interested in someone like you. Or so you thought.
Author's note: This will be an AU where the internet is a little more advanced than it was in 1998. Addionally, I am also making up the "deputy press secretary" role. These are all for plot reasons so just roll with me.
This was inspired by Tumblr's @dancethroughthethunder's one shot An Incredible Man and kudos to them, that was an awesome one shot!x
