"Alright, and if I don't finish it off now I can snack on the food still here throughout the day while you're out." He was not stepping foot outside of this room for precaution's sake, because he knew if he still had some of that scent of heat clinging to him -mated or not- an alpha could still do something stupid. He didn't feel like sending someone to medbay with a bloody nose or something if it could be easily avoided.
He'd be spending his day reviewing so he could face that meeting first thing tomorrow without missing a beat and damn well show more than ever that he had damn well earned his position for his talents. Stomp down any questioning of that.
"Well, eat what you can. You didn't eat as much when you were in heat," he pointed out, but that was as far as he would nag about it. Instead, he leaned down so that he could set a kiss on Gabe's forehead, lingering there a few seconds just to enjoy the moment and the scent. He knew that his omega was safe here in this room, their shared space.
He ruffled Gabe's hair up, since appearances wouldn't matter today for the older man. Then he was stepping away to let Gabe get down to business and he had to force a separation. They had to be functional together and apart, and being away might clear his head a bit more. He'd bring pizza if it was the last thing he did!
Off he went about his day, checking in, getting updated tests and answering more than his fair share of embarrassing questions. Yeah, yeah... blood and urine sample given, and when the medical staff were finished eyeing him, he was allowed to head off and go for a run, which was excellent for clearing his head. Then he was getting a debrief and a few knowing looks, but so far no one commented. He arranged for two Hawaiian pizzas to be delivered by the evening, and he brought those back to his mate.
He tilted his head up for that kiss, humming a little lowly, "Most of what I ate was your dick," dry and teasing because he damn well had the mind for it. Pulling Jack down for a proper kiss before finally letting him go. Jack needed to go out and play his own catch-up and get checked out while he could.
Gabriel for his part spent the day reviewing, working out a bit in their room, and also making sure the old sheets were out for the laundry and both beds had clean sheets and were made up. Did finish the food, tray set aside for some other time.
At least he was used to keeping confined to a room, and had plenty to do once he had gotten himself satisfied with covering everything he'd need for tomorrow. Reason that by the time Jack came back he was laid back on the couch in their shared room, reading over one of the few books he had with him.
Well that comment certainly stuck with him as he went about his business. He knew that Gabe would be busy in review, catching up on battle plans, troop movements and enemy positions. There was a lot for them to do separately, especially given that they would have to be deployed soon enough to see if the treatments were worth the money and effort that the government had put into them.
He shouldered open the door with the pizza boxes, brightening at the sight of Gabe the instance his eyes found the omega. The room smelled and looked normal. The older man seemed relaxed and comfortable, all good signs.
"How was your day," he asked as the door closed behind him. He walked deeper into the room and set the boxes of pizza down on their small table. Then he was over to their little cabinet to pull out two plates and paused. "Want these or are we just grabbing a box each?"
Room was neat and orderly again, looking nothing like it had during that week-long event for them, and it was better to clean with the time he had so he wasn't just bogged down in review. little breaks to better digest the information and formations, roll over what the next best step or movement would be for them all.
The book was set aside as Gabriel laughed a bit- "Just grabbing a box each, no point in messing up any plates when the box serves well enough." Moving so he could collect one of those boxes and opening it with a scenting of the air above it, and that was a pleased groan.
"Fuck, it's been way too long. C'mon, can pick out one of the movies I've got on this thing to enjoy while we eat."
It smelled like the place had been aired out better, the musk of sex and hormones barely noticeable aside from the warmth that they naturally gave off. It certainly had been returned to a state that was acceptable for the military anyway, which meant to him that everything had returned to normal.
"Alright, that sounds fine by me. What do you want to drink then?" He hadn't brought anything, but they had a few supplies to keep hydrated which they could use. He took the box that Gabe had left behind and kept it in hand as he headed for the couch, figuring they could share the space together.
"I don't suppose you have any Westerns, huh?" He was fine with any movie as long as he was spending time with Gabe. "Let's go with something thriller?"
Normalcy was the best they could do, even if there was going to be a new normal set upon them in the aftermath of it. Something good for the both of them, honestly.
He hummed- "There should be a few sodas in the back of that mini-fridge I've got in here. If you can find a couple we can drink them with this." Would go good with the pizza at least, making himself comfortable on the couch as he hooked a booted foot under the table to tug it closer for them both. His box still open and set, pulling a slice out.
"Can't say that I do, farm boy, but I do have a few thrillers to pick from." Already pulling his holovid device in his other hand and holding it for Jack to take so he could scroll through the movie choices for himself if he wanted.
Dropping his pizza off next to the couch, he headed for the mini fridge to search up two sodas. He grabbed some napkins because this was bound to be greasy pizza, so they would definitely need both sodas and napkins to make good work of each box. He dropped a soda next to Gabe's open pizza box and then settled himself down on the couch himself.
He leaned forward to set his box down on the table, opened his soda to take a drag from it as he reached to take the holovid device to switch it on and cycle through Gabe's selection of movies. There was good selection here, some of which he certainly hadn't been able to see in theater.
He picked one at random of the choices he hadn't been able to yet see. That done, he pulled his pizza box closer and took out a slice, shifting so he could nudge his shoulder against Gabe's. "Hope you like this pizza, city slicker."
"So long as it's a good Hawaiian? There's nothing to not like, farm boy."
With that? Gabriel took a big bite out of that slice in hand and settled right in against Jack's side, pizza box and soda well within reach and very much settled in to watch that movie. A nice quiet moment that was... pretty much the date Jack figured it to be earlier, even if not intentioned as such when suggested.
Wasn't bad for a first date, either. Going through that pizza while watching the movie, keeping close there on the couch.
"I ordered it from a place that I found on leave once, so I enjoyed it." And they were willing to deliver to the military facility, so that was a bonus. He had tipped them well, given this was for a date and he wanted it perfect.
Big chunks of pineapple, plenty of ham and cheese and a generous amount of sauce. The crust was delicious and hand made, so he was definitely in heaven as he sat back shoulder to shoulder with Gabe as the movie swung into action. He definitely occasionally tipped his head so that it could rest against the omega's.
Honestly? This was at least one of the better pizzas he'd ever had, and he made a sound that clearly told how much he enjoyed it. There was a practical moan at that first bite in to that chosen slice. Quiet after at least as he ate his slices to savor that taste, sipping soda when needed.
He did lean against Jack in turn himself, Gabriel so damned content with it all-
"Think it's going nicely, even if we're doing thins a little backwards," dryly, but so very clearly a teasing at what did lead them here. Good natured and friendly.
Jack couldn't help but smile at the reaction that Gabe gave to the pizza, well-pleased with himself for going back to that particular place. It was good pizza with plenty of toppings, and it seemed to be hitting a good chord with his mate. Wasn't this just setting their first real date off to a good start?
He too savoured the taste, that savoury and sweet mix along with the sauce. It was perfect. When they leaned together, he turned his head to nuzzle Gabe's cheek and neck between bites. Movie was good, but Gabe was better.
"Well... I don't think either of us expected to have to do things backwards, but we're adaptable. We make it work." He grinned, looking boyish and innocent. "And now we have great pizza, fizzy soda, good company and a nice movie."
Might have been some little part that didn't even expect this to happen forwards either, but hey. Nice surprise this was, really.
"Always adaptable, and as far as I can tell we're already doing just fine," because a very good in room date with good food and company. Nuzzling in turn with a low purred hum, sinking just that much more against Jack's side in a very snuggly way. "We do, might have to find little ways to do this every now and again."
There'd be little time to make it a very regular thing, but still.
"We are doing just fine," he agreed, tipping his head so their temples rested together. He drew in a deep breath, taking in their mingled scents. "We're going to make this work. I want it to, so I'm going to put in all the necessary effort."
He took a bite of pizza, humming softly at the wonderful tastes before he sipped his soda. He settled back in against Gabe, fingers moving to stroke the back of the omega's neck affectionately. "Not sure that we'll be able to find time for pizza and a movie when we are thrown back into the action."
But he knew there would be little ways to have moments together. "Think we'll be able to share a tent?"
Gabriel let his head rest against Jack's as well, eyes closed and just... taking in that moment for what it was. What it could promise, and what Jack technically was promising as well. To put in the effort to make all of this work, and hell, Gabriel would be putting forth the effort as well.
Relaxed under that hand, enjoying that pizza and the contact. "We'll figure out some way to spend a little quality time together, I think." Maybe over an MRE at best sometimes, but hey.
The corner of his mouth twitched, drinking from his own can of soda. "We might, yeah."
He turned his head to kiss Gabe's temple before returning to having their heads resting together as the movie continued on the holovid in front of them. He was dedicated to this, and if Gabe wanted time with him, he would definitely set some aside for it too. This was nice, and he freely admitted it had been a long time since he had had a date of any kind.
His fingers stroked over the skin at the back of Gabe's neck, his other hand alternating between sipping soda and taking a bite from his pizza. "You'll be in command by the sounds of it, so you can pull rank. Or, you know, I can misbehave and you can 'punish' me." He grinned cheekily, aware that neither of them would abuse the rank system like that. Still, it was fun to jest.
"Since I'll be on your team, we'll have to share resources, and they always make tents double up." He'd keep his mate warm and cozy.
"Careful, you'll have me thinking that you enjoy it rough outside of your rut." That was a finger trailing where he knew a few of those scratches he left behind on Jack where, right along his back under a shoulder. Be gone by tomorrow completely, but he knew. "Or maybe you do, with how damn in to it all you were even once the urgency of it all started to fade," and Jack walked himself in to this, even as Gabriel purred at the stroking of his neck.
He honestly enjoyed the mix of roughness and tenderness, personally.
Did laugh a little. "Be nice to have you in my tent. At times I will get slightly better things just because of my rank, whenever we're close to a base," how it was, and he tended to forgo those. Leave it open fr those in real need.
Jack clicked his tongue against the roof of his mouth, feigning a look of being scandalized. "I would never. I'm a straight-laced, innocent farm boy from rural Indiana." It was hard to keep up the face with Gabe's fingers in his short hair and shoulders, a small hot burn of tender flesh announced with the pressure. "You've lead me down the Devil's path with that heat of yours. I am not responsible for how rough we were during and after it." His grin made it clear that he knew exactly that he was responsible and owned it.
Their mix of tender and rough was perfect, and he wouldn't change it for the world. Soon enough they would discover more about each other and their likes and dislikes in the bedroom. That was part of the joy of getting to know one another on such a level.
He shrugged his shoulders; the idea of getting bigger or better didn't matter to him in the least. He was there for the company after all. "I just want to be around you; the circumstances don't matter as much to me."
"There's nothing straight about you, farm boy." Stated so very dryly as fingers still traced along those scratches he could reach, and then let them tangle back up in to blond hair. "Which means you've got a lot more to look forward to, doesn't it." The grin was incredibly telling, but Gabriel couldn't help but sneak in that bit of a teasing joke at first.
He nudged his shoulder against Jack's, swallowing down a bite of pizza as he washed it down with soda- "I can do that." Let them be around each other,because no one would argue. Not even the top brass would after pointing out how well they tended to score when working together during training exercises.
"Wow, I feel like I should be offended by that. I don't wear my homosexuality so openly, do I?" There was always a part of himself that thought it didn't matter what he was behind closed doors as long as he did his job professionally. Of course, Gabe and him had discussed such things before becoming mates, their attraction so obvious now that he looked back on it. He couldn't help but tip his head to those skilled fingers. "I always have a lot more to look forward to, yeah. Now I can add 'future with one Gabriel Reyes' on it." Even if he could admit the inevitability of that considering they were at war. He just plain didn't spare it much thought.
He was sipping at his soda between bites of pizza crust, glancing over at the nudge. He nodded his head, pleased. It wasn't just about protecting his mate either; he just plain liked to be around Gabe and he slept best when they were close to each other, preferably touching in some way, even if it was just feet.
"About as openly as I wear the fact I'm bisexual," which was not at all, and also something Gabriel didn't really talk much about at all. Of course he had opened up to Jack about it, didn't think the man would tell him he was a waste of time and needed to pick a side, or get any of the disgust and erasure shown both within and outside of the queer community. Part of why he didn't really... date much, or talk about it even when he did. Combed fingers through hair, tips of them massaging along his scalp slowly, "A great deal to look forward to then."
It was a sort of bond that they'd established early on, the trust and security around each other that meant they simply new the other was there at their back. A comfort that allowed for rest when the other was there. It would help them in the long run, as it had already proven merit during time within the SEP itself.
Out on the field, in the action, it would do just as well.
He hummed softly, aware that Gabe didn't talk about the fact that the older man was bisexual. It was such a contentious orientation, one he had never ever understood. If a bisexual man was dating a woman, they were considered 'straight', and if he was dating a man, he was considered 'gay'. LGBTQ looked down on bisexuals even now. "I like that you are who you are, and you will love who you love." He was also very glad that Gabe had decided to love him in the same way that he loved the older man. "Yeah. We just need to off-set this war and bring it to a close, survive it and everything." No big deal, right?
It was important in any and all military functions that one knew their unit had their back. While the new units hadn't been reassigned yet and thus would still need to train together, Jack was confident that he and Gabe would become a duo of their own sorts. Tomorrow they would face their peers and Gabe the military brass, but they would do it together no matter what.
He leaned forward to grab another slice of pizza and leaned his head against Gabe's shoulder. "Just think that if we're on the same unit, we can have sex in so many interesting places."
No matter who he could possibly be dating -man, woman, transgender, nonbinary, or any other- he would always be bisexual, and that was just how it was. Wasn't a straight pretending or a fake queer, because that B was within LGBTQ+ for a reason. Also didn't mean he'd just grow bored of whoever, didn't make him any more likely to cheat, or all the other nonsense those on either side could come up with. That was all that needed to be understood, "I'll love who I love, and that so happens to be you," Without question. Gabriel did snort a bit, "And that's all."
Could sound like no big deal, and maybe saying it like that could help with some lingering nerves about the ever hanging ginormous impact of it all. That the possible future of humanity was hanging in the balance of this war being won. With or without them.
But of course he couldn't help but laugh- and lean over to steal a bite of that slice that Jack had picked up before he was ruffling blond hair affectionately, easing back. "Of course. Having to sneak away and hide somewhere to have it out."
Jack was completely trusting of Gabe and expected that while they were dating, they would not stray from each other. He had no concerns that the older man would stop to admire or make a move on a woman, man or someone in between those genders. He was a gay man who was deeply attached to a bisexual man, and that was perfectly fine with him. He also wouldn't stand for anyone else having a problem with it. It wasn't their business. "I'm very privileged to have earned your love. I'm going to work hard to build what we have up to something even better."
It was that easy connection they had made - apparently rare with Gabe - that made it clear that they would stick together. It wasn't even the hormones either. He just plain liked the older man, and so he would loyally have Gabe's back. He knew the opposite was true.
He blinked when Gabe had the audacity to steal a bite of his pizza slice, and he issued a faked growl and narrowed his eyes. "Hey now, we going to have to share everything now, Gabriel Reyes? I'm not sure I signed on to share my very delicious pizza slice." No, he totally had, and he was more endeared with it too. He leaned in to steal a kiss and swipe his tongue across Gabe's lips. "I say we challenge each other to find all the fun odd places no one would think to look for us in the field."
Was no one's business but their own. "Looking forward to doing that together," because he'd grown to love Jack Morrison over their time here, enjoyed his company even in the foulest of moods. Just never imagined things would push back some sort of deep friendship, so this was a... good surprise, even if at a strange time in both of their lives and the world at war.
"Too bad, because you most certainly did sign on to share your pizza slice, and just about anything else with me." That sweet tone paired with something akin to reading off the last rights. Even dared to lick his lips of a bit of sauce on them from taking that bite-
Only for it to brush against Jack's when he leaned into still a kiss and a lick, laughing a little as he returned both. "A fun little game in the midst of hell."
