Title: Still here
Word Count: (100)
Rating: 12
Challenge: #129: Where The Heart Is
Characters/Pairing: James Lester/Tom Ryan
Warnings: None
Authors Notes: It really does get difficult to convey what you want to in 100 words sometimes. I think I manged it though.



Lester discretely held Ryan's hand where it hung slightly off the hospital bed, which for his lover was possibly the equivalent of tears and desperate hugging.

"Careful James, you're in danger of being soppy."

Lester raised a brow haughtily. "I have no idea what you mean."

"You aren't about to make a passionate declaration of your feelings and explain how you couldn't possibly cope if you had lost me?"

"Hardly. I couldn't cope with the extra paperwork and interviews for a replacement though."

Lester's stricken expression didn't fade, even as he snarked back.

Ryan squeezed his hand. "I'm still here."

Totally Lester - never misses an opportunity for snark, no matter the circumstances :-)

*wibbles* Lester's such a big softie under all that snark!

[cordeliadelayne]

Aw, that was lovely!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Aww. Lovely and so Lester. Can't show his heart so snarks instead. *hugs the boys*

[lukadreaming.livejournal.com]

Fabulous! Typical Lester, snarking to cover his concern. The understatedness of it really makes the drabble.

[slashybits.livejournal.com]

Thanks :)

I can't see him changing, much *g* but that's good because we love him how he is.

[slashybits.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

<3's Lester

Thanks :) Lester isn't one for PDA's so I'm glad the depth of his feelings came through.

[slashybits.livejournal.com]

Hee! Thank you *huge grin*

I think that there would be quite a fight over who got to keep them ;) I know you'd treat them well though.

[slashybits.livejournal.com]

Thank you :) Glad you enjoyed it

[slashybits.livejournal.com]

You know things are bad if Lester doesn't snark *g*

[slashybits.livejournal.com]

He really is ;) Just don't tell him we said that *g*

[slashybits.livejournal.com]

Thank you :)

[slashybits.livejournal.com]
