Mourning ((RP for
number_eight))
Four months ago (Gods, he thought, has it only been four months?), when Lee had moved into this cabin aboard Colonial One, he had looked at the small space and decided that while it wasn't the familiar locker he'd shared onboard the Galactica with Dee, it was a hell of a lot roomier than a even an officer's rack, so things couldn't be that bad. And although he had come to feel comfortable with the space, it had never become a home. It felt even less like one now.
Lee felt a hot, wet tear roll down his face and he wiped at it angrily. He couldn't count the number he'd shed in the last twelve hours, every one of them searing, every one of them painful. Part of him wondered if he was mourning more than just a person, he was mourning everything she had meant to him-- more importantly, the things she had given him.
Even when they weren't together, even when Lee knew she was furious with him, Dee had always been a kind of beacon of hope. Not just for him, but for everyone aboard the battlestar, his father especially. Her faith in Admiral Adama had been unwavering, and her belief that Lee was a good man meant for great things just as firm. She had believed when they had not.
And now she was dead, because she had lost that faith, and had those beliefs shattered. The wasted, blasted Earth had broken all of them, but Anastasia Dualla had had the furthest to fall.
Lee reached again for the bottle of ambrosia-- a gift from Colonel Tigh, of all people, who had handed it over without comment-- just as a knock sounded on the hatch of his quarters. He was confused for a moment until he remembered that someone from Galactica would be arriving with Dee's personal effects. Still gripping the half-empty bottle, knowing he would need its help, Lee rose and opened the hatch.

Everyone was in mourning in some way or another, and Sharon was no different.
She began pulling at Lee's clothes, the taste of alcohol still burning her lips and his words still ringing in her ears. He loved Dee. He missed Dee. He was angry and hurt and upset and all Sharon was was some sort of outlet, she supposed.
She should absolutely walk away from him right now instead of offering herself up to Lee to make him feel better. Instead her hands began pulling his pants down as she deepened their kiss.

In her flight suit, it took longer to get Sharon undressed. With every buckle and strap Lee had to contend with, his frustration grew. Lee was painfully hard as soon as she had gotten his pants down, and as soon as he'd pulled away her tank top, Lee closed his mouth down on Sharon's small breast hungrily.
no subject
Sharon didn't want to stop. She didn't want a pity frak, she just wanted his mouth on her breast to never stop.
It had taken him a long time to get her flight suit off, and she reached her hand down to feel how hard he already was. Sharon squeezed him once and sighed happily, because this? This was what she'd been missing. This could make everything better, all the pain, the deaths, finding Earth... she could forget for a moment once they were frakking.
"Lee, I need you inside me right now," she managed to get out as her hand stroked him quickly to let him know just how much she wanted him.
no subject
"Need it too," he groaned, his hand skimming down Sharon's flat belly and curling between her legs. Lee's fingers found her sex wet and heated and yielding. He slid a pair of fingers into her even as his tongue pressed its way into her mouth.
Satisfied she Sharon was ready, Lee moved them toward the bed. He nearly tripped over one of the cardboard boxes, and it made him hesitate. What was he doing? What did he think this would solve? A hundred questions raced through his mind, the same hundred that always did. Lee brought his hand to his mouth, tasting Sharon on his fingers, and settled beside her as he let himself forget.
no subject
"Frak me." She had a feeling that he didn't want it soft or sweet. He was drunk and in mourning. He wanted to forget as much as she did -- probably moreso -- so she spread her legs for him wide and waited.
Everytime they'd frakked, practically, it had been hard and fast, but never painful. The look in Lee's eyes of emptiness made her think that this time, though, it would be different. This time, once he shoved himself into her, it would hurt her because he'd be using her body. Hadn't she said she didn't want that?
Right then, though, Sharon saw it was what Lee needed. So she would give it to him, let him do whatever he needed to move on. "Frak me," she repeated.
no subject
Lee sank into her heat as she said it again. "Yes," he hissed, both in agreement and in pleasure. She was always so hot inside, and he knew she could tighten down around him until it hurt, if she chose. Part of him very much wanted it to hurt.
Hips beginning to move, Lee started out quickly, his arms already shaking as they held him up. Lee slid in and out of her, hard and fast, and the feeling shot from their joined bodies straight through his every limb. He panted and moaned as he thrust into Sharon, lowering his head push a crushing kiss down on her mouth. Everything else in the world began to fade into the background.
no subject
Sharon was surprised, though, at how quickly the warmth began to burn up and down her spin as her orgasm hit her and her legs wound themselves around his waist, pulling him deeper into her as she became lost to whatever hurt he wanted to give her to make them both forget.
Her muscles tightened down around him as she shuddered, and Sharon knew it had to have hurt him by sheer strength. She stopped, finally, and lay there for him. Watching his eyes, she calmed her breathing as wetness poured out between her legs and she whispered, "Hurt me."
She'd just hurt him. He could hurt her back. It was only fair.
no subject
This time it was the noise and frantic exertion that was keeping the world at bay.
He hadn't even realized that he'd been hurting Sharon until she gave the pain back, crushing around his length as she came. Lee cried out, the pain somehow dulling his sense of despair even further. In that moment, it made sense. Pain was also a feeling, and for once, it was one he was welcoming. And by her words, it looked like Sharon welcomed it, too.
His thrusts were already as hard and deep as they could be, so Lee reared up slightly, freeing his right arm to strike Sharon across the face. "Me," he moaned, "give me more... hurt me, too..."
no subject
Too much, she decided.
She touched her cheek and then all thinking stopped when he asked her to hurt him, again. Again? How, why...? She frowned and wondered what sort of pain he wanted -- or rather, needed. Unsure, Sharon struck him hard across his face, but held back some of her Cylon strength. "I don't..." She bucked her hips upwards and squeezed down on him, hurting his cock as much as she could even as she pulled him deeper within her.
The pain of it all caused her to cry out Lee's name, over and over, as she came again.
no subject
Lee didn't understand how or why, only that if he could keep feeling this way, then he could just simply keep on going.
He started to move his hips again, ready to drive into Sharon's heat, but was stopped when she went vise-tight on him again. Sharon screamed his name, and as she came, the shuddering pressure pushed Lee over the edge. Her name escaped his chest in a roar as Lee pushed hard one last time, thrusting even deeper into her sex before exploding, too. His body wrenched and jerked as his climax hit with painful force.
Still shaking, Lee's arms gave out and he fell onto Sharon.
no subject
"I..."
She ended up pressing a kiss against his cheek as she held his body to hers, like it was the only real thing left in the whole galaxy somehow.
"I'll stay here with you if you want me to," she decided finally, biting her lip after she'd said it because she wasn't sure what Lee wanted anymore.
no subject
But the feel of her with him... Lee couldn't make himself let go. He could feel the drifting sadness starting to pull at him, and he needed something to hold. Someone to hold.
"Yeah," he whispered. "Yeah, please." He'd deal with the consquences later.
They settled in, awkward and unsure, but never releasing one another.
