Chapter Text
Danny stood facing the hull of the ship in the small quarters they had been given. His clothes were filthy so he had been given a piece of cloth which he had wrapped around his hips, showing of his chest and abs. A hand was laid on his shoulder and he quickly took it and twisted the arm forcing the body it belonged to, too its knees. When he looked down upon the man he saw that Steve only had his pants on also showing of his lean chest and hard abs.
“You can break my hand, but I’m still gonna kiss you” Steve whispered. He was smiling that cocky smile of his, knowing he was charming and knowing that Danny loved that smile a little more than he cared to admit.
Danny lowered himself to his knees, letting go of Steve’s hand at the same time. Their lips locked and Steve pushed him to the floor so Danny laid on his back. Danny’s hand came to rest on the ex-SEAL’s neck and the other traveled slowly down his chest. Their bodies rocked together in a soundless beat which no one could hear. Danny was trapped between the floor and Steve’s hard body, Steve’s knees where positioned over his hips and his elbows held up his body so that the blond male wouldn’t be squashed. Their kissing became more erratic as their need for each other increased.
Danny hooked a leg over one of the bigger mans, and one of his arms overlapped his lover’s and then rolled them over so that he was on top. His eyes glinted in mischief as he sat upon Steve’s thighs. The cloth he wore had crawled up on his thighs, barely covering him up. He bent down to kiss the dark haired man again. As he traveled down the lean body he held the beautiful man down by the neck. He listened to the sharp intakes of breath as he blindly looked for the object he was looking for in his bagpack.
He quickly jumped of the other male as he chained him by the bed with the help of a pair of handcuffs. Steve looked confused as he glanced between the cuffs and Danny, whom sat crouched at the other side of the room, well out of his reach.
“Not exactly what I had in mind, but okay” joked Steve. He looked at Danny with a frown and a pair of questioning eyes.
“I will tell the CIA that you have held your end of the bargain and you will receive your new life when they pick you up” said Danny with a passive face. Steve scuffed as he lay on the floor, supported by his free arm.
“Just like that huh? What are you running from Danny?” The ex-SEAL asked with an accusing tone. “Why aren’t you letting me come with you? Why are you turning away from this?”
“I’m not running away from anything! I’m turning away now and making sure you won’t make the wrong decision!” told Danny.
“Are you afraid you won’t have it in you to stop me, D?” threw Steve back.
“It’s because I do!” snared lord Williams. He was afraid that if he took Steve with him, Steve would take one glimpse at the reason of the mission and turn away from him, and then Danny would be left to stop him.
“And what if I make the right one?” Steve asked.
“Why did you turn away from your country then? From your SEAL-team?” asked Danny, He slowly rose up, keeping his eyes on the man cuffed to the bed.
“I had to Danny, I thought you knew that!” tried Steve as he watched the lord with pleading eyes. “I had no other choice”
Danny scuffed. He still couldn’t believe this, after all these years he still thought he could fool him.
“When I made my choice I did it so that you would be safe, I did it so all the people I care for would be safe.” explained Steve desperately. He needed Danny to understand. “Leaving the navy, the SEAL’s was hard, leaving my country was harder, but leaving you was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do!”
“Then why, Steven, why did you leave, can’t you just tell me that?” Danny demanded. He started to wave his arms as he got more aggravated. He just wanted to punch the stupid man in front of him.
“No, I’m sorry but I can’t.” said the ex-navy man.
Danny’s stare turned thunderous. He quickly grabbed his bag-pack and put his dirty clothes on in a hurry.
“Then I’m sorry aswell, I have to go, you know… a world to save, artifacts to discover, history to unravel.” He looked murderous at Steve, but hidden behind the anger was sadness and longing.
“Wait Danny, please wait” called Steve trying to stop the man from leaving him, but Danny was already outside the door.
“I don’t want a new life, I want to be with you and if you won’t let me, I’ll just follow you so that I’ll know that you are safe.” Steve whispered not knowing Danny stood hidden just behind the door, trying to force himself away from the man who left him all those years ago.
