Summary
“We’ll need to keep it down,” he heard Maverick saying from what he assumed was the kitchen. “I had some company last night—and he’s still sleeping.”
“Oh?” That was Bradshaw’s voice, unmistakable. “Did you and Hondo stay up drinking again?”
“No, sweetheart, not that kind of company.”
“So you and Penny—? I thought you said the two of you decided it wasn’t a good idea. And wait, you said he.”
“I did say he,” Maverick confirmed. “In fact, it’s—” That was his cue, if he’d ever heard one.
Annnnd…showtime.
Post mission, Hangman came up with a plan. Phase one—seduce Maverick. Phase two—flaunt the fling in Rooster’s face. Phase three—watch Rooster simmer and stew, furious over Hangman monopolizing his father figure. Phase four—make it clear to Rooster that he’ll leave Maverick’s bed…if he can get into Rooster’s. It seemed like a flawless plan. But he didn’t know that Rooster didn’t see Mav as a father figure. He didn’t know that Rooster was in love. And he sure didn’t expect that he’d start falling, too.

Summary
Jake doesn’t see it right away. That one’s on him, but hindsight is always 20/20.
It starts, as most things do between them, with a fight.
(alternatively: tactile jake & touch starved bradley because i am nothing if not self indulgent)

Summary
“What’s this for?” Bradshaw asks warily in the middle of the tarmac, staring down at the protein bar Jake shoved unceremoniously into his hand. He looks suspicious and slightly bewildered, like he always does whenever he’s within proximity to Jake.
“For decoration, obviously,” Jake replies, mocking. It’s the last in the box he keeps in his locker as an easy means of refueling pre or post hop, but Bradshaw needn’t know all that. “I had extra and don’t like that flavor anyway.”
(Jake’s love language is acts of service, Bradley is oblivious until he’s not.)

Summary
“It’s just that I’ve never—” Jake stops, a chill running through him. The words fizzle out on the tip of his tongue even as his heart rate speeds up, his fight-or-flight response activated.
“Never what?” Bradley’s forehead furrows, and Jake can almost hear the gears of his overactive brain working furiously. “Oh, with a guy?”
Jake nods slowly, allowing the misconception for now. The truth is he’s never done this with anyone.
