After the Werewolves

"After the Werewolves"
Who:  Peter Petrelli & Jack Harkness (Torchwood)


Jack had left him panting.  Where did that kiss come from?  He'd been almost mauled the moment he stepped out of the elevator, shoved back against the wall...  Oh, not that Peter minded.  No.  He loved the way that Jack kissed him, he loved the extreme force behind it.  Peter had been shocked for a moment, but gave right into it, panting, groaning, pulling at that leather jacket.

The bruises that kiss caused healed in moments when Jack pulled away again.  Peter gazed up at him with such dark eyes as Jack swallowed and stepped away from him.  They didn't speak.  Didn't Jack have that other guy he was interested in?  Where did that come from.

"Oh God," he breathed, pressing his face into his hands to calm himself and his heart...  To still his erection.  "Oh God."

He stumbled towards the front door to the apartment he shared with his brother and left himself inside.  He was bloody, as he said he'd been.  Fighting werewolves would do that to you.

"Nathan?"

Jack rolled his eyes, opening the door and stepping out into the hallway. He had absolutely no desire to see any of that. They'd make up, they'd be fine. He really didn't need to worry about either of them, and he didn't know why he was in the first place.

Part of his nature, he supposed. he was always worrying about other people these days. Probably why he was so miserable. Before, when he hadn't given a damn, he would have just fucked Peter and beat the shit out of Nathan. Sometimes he hated the Doctor for helping him develop a conscience.

He closed the door behind him and leaned against it, breathing out slowly. Why had he bothered to change? Because the Doctor rescued him from the bomb? He'd died for the Doctor then, when he left him behind. The Doctor admitted he purposely avoided Jack.

Because he was wrong.

Well, he couldn't deny the truth in that. He was wrong. He slid down the side of the wall and pulled the small flask out of his pocket. He took a sip out of it as he sat there, contemplating what he was going to do.

Peter rolled his eyes at his brother and crossed his arms over his chest. "Don't try to play politician with me," he said more sharply than he had wanted to. "I'm going to take a shower and that is not an invitation." He had to say that just to make sure. Sometimes Nathan's mind went places that Peter could not even fathom.

Oh, it hurt his head.

He could literally feel Jack's pain out in the hallway, but he was not going to go to him. They had been friends, having the time of their lives -- well, Peter's life -- less than three hours ago. And now he was a second best fuck friend.

Oh no, Peter was not playing that game. He was not getting involved with people that loved other people.

Nathan crept into the bathroom behind Peter once he saw Peter's bloodied, shredded clothes hit the floor and heard the water being turned on. If it hadn't been an invitation, then why hadn't Peter locked it? He'd even left the door open a crack!

And just like that, Nathan changed his mind once again. He was lying to himself if he thought this thing with Peter would just go away. He was getting hard just thinking about seeing his brother's naked, wet, glistening body under the hot spray.

Peter was most likely totally oblivious to it, but he was the man's version of beautiful. Nathan had thought that even before he'd had these illicit feelings for him. Maybe they'd always been there under the surface, just waiting to come out when the time was...right?

Nathan stripped down to nothing, trying to be as quiet as possible, but that thought caused a drunken laugh to burst from his lips.

He slipped into the shower, and looked covetously over his brother's soapy body. "Hi. Crashed the party, even though I wasn't invited," he said softly.

Water in his eyes and ears, he didn't notice Nathan had arrived until he was there. Peter turned quickly, almost slipping and grabbed onto Nathan's arm and shoulder. "Jesus Christ, Nathan!" he shouted, bellies mere inches apart. "What the hell are you doing here?!"

Peter was not frightened, he was just angry. He still had fight in him, he still had that very good night at the warehouse and the pub. Everything'd been fine till they got back on Torchwood property.

"You scared the shit out of me! Get out of here!"

Nathan, still a bit drunk, did his best to steady his brother so he didn't fall, grabbing him by his forearms. He felt like berating himself just like Peter was right now, but he just kept quiet until Peter stopped yelling. Was Nathan an idiot? Considering his childish behavior towards Jack, had he really expected anything else from his brother? Five minutes ago he'd said there was nothing going on, and here he was naked in the shower with him.

What the hell is wrong with me?

He started to reach out to touch his face, but instantly thought better of it. "I just thought--never mind. I'll go. Please don't be angry with me, Peter."

Nathan enjoyed the spray of the water for a few seconds while he rinsed off the soap that Peter's slight stumble had flicked all over him, then pulled the shower curtain over so he could get out just as quickly as he had come.

Peter stood in the shower for a long time, just standing there, until the water started to get cold. He nudged the dial up a few notches and then groaned, gazing almost serenely at the falling water before he turned the shower off and found a towel to dress in.

As expected, his brother was in the kitchen. As expected, he was pouring himself another drink. Peter used the opportunity to get dressed in the bedroom and then make a bed up on the couch.

Nathan didn't really think he'd sleep in the same bed with him, did he? Peter laid face down on the sofa, the covers pulled over his head.
