Hawaii Five-0, Steve McGarrett/Danny Williams,

Do me wrong, do me right
Tell me lies, but hold me tight
Save your good-byes for the morning light
But don't let me be lonely tonight
(James Taylor)

I usually leave when all the words are said
But with you there's always more sweet things to say
And when my mind starts a wanderin'up that windin' road ahead
My feet don't seem to want to walk away

The Dancing Queen was in full swing when John arrived. Parent-Teacher conferences had run late, and he’d come right from school, still dressed in his navy-blue blazer and tie. Not the usual ensemble he wore for a night out, but he hadn’t had time to swing by the house first.

“Right this way, Professor,” Alejandro said, greeting John just inside the door. John could barely hear him over the blare of the music.

John had his own table close to the stage, where Lola Longbeam was lip-synching along to Meredith Brooks.

I'm a bitch
I'm a lover
I'm a child
I'm a mother
I'm a sinner
I'm a saint
And I do not feel ashamed

Alejandro brought John a beer – in a glass, not a bottle – and a turkey sandwich, which wasn’t on the menu but always available for him on a late night. He appreciated it; there was never time to eat with a steady stream of parents coming through the classroom.

He was just finishing his sandwich when the final, and arguably most anticipated, act was announced. He waved Alejandro over for another beer.

“On your feet, ladies, gentleman, and everyone checking the ‘other’ box! Shower your praise and adulation on the one, the only, Lady Meredith!”

John did as instructed, standing and cheering and wolf-whistling louder than anyone. Lady Meredith didn’t exactly glide on the stage as she dominated it, every step of those glittering blue heels an exclamation.

Was that a new dress? John didn’t think he’d seen it before. The rhinestone bedazzled blue fabric was very clingy in all the best ways, showing off those broad shoulders and especially Lady Meredith’s ample backside.

No lip-synching for the final act. Lady Meredith did her own singing, in her own husky voice.

Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

A moody choice. Usually the final number was something peppier, to get people on their feet, singing and dancing along. No-one was complaining, though. The crowd was entranced, hanging on Lady Meredith’s every word.

I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on
Strumming my pain with his fingers

The glitter on Lady Meredith’s cheeks made it look like she was crying. Maybe she was. There was certainly plenty of emotion bleeding through every word, every note. When she finished there was a silent pause and then the club erupted in applause, everyone on their feet once again.

John used the ovation as a distraction to slip backstage. Lady Meredith had the largest dressing room, of course, and John made sure there was a glass of chilled water waiting for her when she came in.

“Well?” she asked, heading straight for the water.

“One of your better performances,” John said, lounging on the red velvet chaise. “Any particular reason for the song choice?”

“Just one of those days,” Lady Meredith replied with a sigh.

She drained the glass and sat at her vanity, staring at herself in the mirror for a long moment before she tugged the curly blonde wig off. Lady Meredith began the process of turning back into Rodney McKay, removing the fake eyelashes and systematically cleaning away all the makeup.

“You hungry?” John asked. “We can go to the all-night diner on the way home.”

“We can get something to go,” Rodney said. He changed back into his pants and a tee shirt. “I’d rather just get home.”

John got up off the chaise and gave Rodney a hug, pressing a kiss to his temple. “You sure you’re okay?”

Rodney hugged him back. “I’ll be fine. Let’s go.”

They walked out of the Dancing Queen hand in hand.

Thank you!

That was gorgeous - bright, dazzling, artistic, but also emotional. I loved it!

From:

Thank you so much, friend!

From:

This was great! I'm only familiar with the characters/fandom by name and through gifs, but they always seemed very shippable to me. I like the element and your take on the prompt, very unique. The underlying emotion throughout the sequence, the way John knew that there was something wrong with Rodney, but knew not to push really says a lot about the depth of their relationship.

Wonderful job! Thanks for picking my prompt. :D

I'm so pleased you liked it! Thank you for the inspiration!

oh wow. this was sparkly and sad and moody and dark and alcoholic and the atmosphere was so great and I love a perceptive John. We won't even begin with the fantastic image of Rodney McKay singing his soul out in drag...it's wonderful. Great fill.

Thank you so much!!

They got their fairy tale happily ever after. Settling down in a cozy cottage in the woods and living joyfully without a care in the world was a dream come true.

They live in a nice big house on the outskirts of town, close enough that they had everything they could need for daily living while keeping in touch with family and friend, yet tucked far away in the woods away from people where it seemed like they were the only souls in the world.

Buttercup was a walking hairball, and even though the enormous amount of hair he shed could be turned into a coat, TK and Carlis loved the fluffy pup: the saying is true—a house is not a home without a dog.

TK, although not a big fan of sappy, romantic moments, feels his heart melt when he comes home from a run one day to find the most adorable sight. He can feel a ripple of pure joy tingling in his heart, fluttering like butterfly wings.

Carlos is curled up in bed, taking a little cat nap, and Buttercup is snuggled up with him. Carlos has one arm tucked around Buttercuo, snuggling the dog as if he were his teddy bear, while Buttercup sleeps peacefully, snoring rather loudly, the big loveable pup.

Grinning brightly, TK walked over to the bed where his boyfriend was fast asleep and combed his fingers through his soft dark tresses. Even asleep, Carlos smiles, blissful and happy, cuddling with Buttercup as he dreams sweet dreams.

TK brushes his fingers over Carlos' cheek, no hesitation to gently cup his face and rub his thumb over the cute dimple that makes him smile whenever he sees his boyfriend grinning so brightly like sunny sunshine.

TK couldn’t believe that he got his happily ever after. For so long he thought it was only a dream, but now, and for the rest of his life, he gets to live happily ever after with the love of his life by his side and a cute mutt who is the perfect teddy bear to cuddle with.

♥ END ♥

Aww, this is cute! Don't know the characters/fandom, but the sweet fluff made me smile anyway. The idea of a house outside of town, with a dog and your loved one is such a pleasant thought that just warms my heart. You make it very easy to picture the scene here. :D

Great job! Thanks for picking my prompt!
