Holiday Request Ficlet #9: Blame

Title: Blame
Author: viciouswishes
For: zortified
Fandom: Babylon 5
Pairing: Franklin/Garibaldi
Rating: G
Words: 100
Prompt: Garibaldi ficlet. Slash or gen, angst.
Summary: Garibaldi hadn't kissed a man since going sober.

The night Garibaldi made cannelloni, he wasn't expecting to kiss Stephen. He hadn't kissed a man since going sober. He blamed it on the memories of his father and the lack of a good red wine with dinner.

He really should've blamed it on Stephen's lips and ability. Garibaldi hadn't been prepared for that kind of precision, for the gentle licks that got his mouth to open. For Stephen's strong hand on his shoulder.

But he was still alone, staring at his Daffy the Duck poster and wondering, just wondering, if they were both going to pretend that nothing happened in the morning.

Am reading this off a friends list of a friend... (thinks about that for a moment - yup, sounds right!) and being B5 - had to read!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

This was beautiful, bittersweet and just fantastic. You have both Michael and Stephen down perfectly and kudos for mentioning the 'Egyptian God of Frustration';)

Again... thank you!

(Even though your icon is making me go all wobbly-lipped)

The Egyptian God of Frusteration is always a must. :)
