Too old for this...

Chapter 9

Love and burned pasta

Aaron Hotchner/ David Rossi

This chapter contains sexual content (18+ only) mdni

David rushed into his kitchen, choking on the smoke he lifts the pot of charred pasta from the stove and dumped it unceremoniously in his sink. He turned on the tap flinching slightly at the loud hiss the water makes against the boiling hot pan. He had just thrown open the windows when he heard Aaron enter the kitchen behind him. He turned and took in the sight of Aaron wearing only the silk trousers Dave had picked out for him. Aaron grinned back at him, a light blush coloring his cheeks at Dave's hungry look.

"Quite the dinner I've made for you Hotchner." Dave laughed gesturing to the chaotic state of his once pristine kitchen. "Help yourself to the ashen remains of my pasta or the wine on the floor."

Hotch laughed heartily at his statement before cautiously side stepping the puddle of wine between them and wrapping his arms around him. Dave felt his whole body warm at the open display of affection he never knew he could possess from his long time friend and now lover he supposed. He wrapped his arms around Aaron and covered his neck in soft butterfly kisses that caused the other man to wriggle in his arms out of ticklishness.

"Just hand me a straw and I'll slurp up that floor wine no problem! I bet it's nice and aerated now!" Aaron joked grinning at David cheekily now, Dave couldn't keep the fake glare on for more than a second before he joined Aaron's laughter.

"It's what we deserve I suppose, for skipping straight to desert." Dave winked at Aaron.

"Don't worry Dave, food was the last thing on my mind when I came over tonight." Aaron replied with a wink of his own that caused Rossi to choke on his own tongue.

He really could get used to this flirty side of Aaron he had never anticipated.

"I can tell already that you are going to be the death of me Hotchner."

Instead of a reply he was met with another kiss. This one was slower, a gentle press of lips. Hands exploring bodies more intricately than the hunger they had before. They moved against each other like they knew they had all night and the rest of their lives to drink each other in. This was a different kind of hunger, now they knew the feeling was mutual. It didn't need to be a crashing of teeth and lips and bodies in a great crescendo. Instead it can be explored in waves, allowing them to melt together. To finally be as close as they wanted to be all this time. To breathe the same air and feel their heartbeats quicken in time with one another.

It was when Aaron dropped to his knees that Dave realized he had run to his kitchen fully naked moments before. Aarons mouth hot and wet around him making his head swim and his knees buckle. The man locking eyes with him as he bobbed his head up and down. Dave was mesmerized by the way his cock stretched Aaron's lips the deeper he took the man in. He felt the heat building in the pit of his stomach too soon, Aaron was devilishly good at his craft. Dave tugged on his tufts of hair a warning that he was close but not prepared to finish this way. The wet sound of Aaron's lips leaving him was debauched as they stumbled their way back to the master bedroom.

It was Dave's turn to have Aaron seeing stars as he curled one then two then three fingers against his prostate in a maddening rhythm. Aaron was reduced to a puddle of moans and gasps and begs when Dave couldn't wait any longer. He thrust deep into the other man's volcanic heat and swore he could have come immediately from the intensity of the act itself. He paused Aaron cradling his head against his chest murmuring curses into his sweaty hair that quickly turned to breathy moans when Dave finally moved inside him. The pace started as gentle as the feather light kisses had before he lost what was left of his sanity in the other man's embrace. His thrusts became frantic and fast before they reached a fever pitch and tumbled together in ecstasy, collapsing in a heap.

The rest of the night was filled with their laughter and teasing mixed with reverent exploration of each other. Eventually they fell asleep in each other's arms Dave lulled by the steady beating of his partner's heart. They woke up tired and hungry but at peace for the first time in a long while.

Aaron was absentmindedly running a finger through the hair of Dave's chest enjoying the swirling pattern he could make in the hairs when Dave's phone rang.

"Hello my wonderful love bugs!" Came Garcia's cheery voice. "I see from Bossman's phone location that he never went home last night..."

Dave could practically hear the waggling of Penelope's eyebrows through the phone. Aaron snorted a laugh from beside him, sitting up and letting out a long yawn.

"You know I don't kiss and tell Penelope."

Dave had to quickly move the phone from his ear as Penelope's excited shrieks threatened to deafen him.

"I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT! You guys were made for each other! I am so happy for you both! We are bringing some breakfast supplies so be decent when we arrive!"

"Who's we Garcia?" Dave tried to ask even as Garcia hung up the phone.

"Sounds like we are having an impromptu team meeting." Aaron laughed while rolling out of bed. "And I don't have any clothes that aren't covered in wine."

Aaron now stood nude beside the bed, hands on hips and looking distraught at his predicament. Dave had to laugh a little he looked very cute, all grumpy eyed while completely naked.

"I think you looked great in the silk trousers." Dave joked causing Aaron to reach over and throw one of his over-stuffed feather pillows at his head.

"There is absolutely no way I am having breakfast with the team in those silk trousers!"

"Your birthday suit is always an option." The next pillow made contact with his face but didn't stop him from laughing. "Okay princess let's find you something nice to wear."

"You're lucky you're pretty Agent Rossi."

B, E, I J, L, U? :D

B - A pairing you initially didn’t consider but someone changed your mind

Kylo(Ben)/Poe. I blame both @perilsperil and the delicious artwork of @gaylo-ben.

E - Have you added anything cracky/hilarious to your fandom, if so, what

Several crack fics, and the Badass Stannis Baratheon Meme

I - Has tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why

While I follow some MCU blogs, I no longer care for the fandom at large one bit. IMHO it’s even wankier and more hateful than the Star Wars fandom, and that is saying a lot.

(J has already been answered!)

L - Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves (chars you’re neutral on are fair game, as are chars you dislike)

Dear Woodes Rogers - you don’t look half bad.

U - 5 favorite characters from 5 different fandoms

Deep Space Nine: Jadzia Dax, Kira Nerys, Benjamin Sisko, Gul Dukat, General Martok

Star Wars: Armitage Hux, Kylo Ren, Leia Organa, Anakin Skywalker, Padmé Amidala

Black Sails: Anne Bonny, Charles Vane, Jack Rackham, James Flint, Madi

MCU: Tony Stark, Sam Wilson, Natasha Romanov, Rocket, Loki

Criminal Minds: Derek Morgan, Penelope Garcia, Jennifer Jareau, David Rossi, Luke Alvez

Salty asks: 1, 2, 4, 5, 22. Like I lowkey want to say "all of them", but I'm not Kait, so I can restrain myself.

What OTPs in your fandom(s) do you just not get?

The big one is – obviously – L*cas x P*yton. It genuinely makes no sense to me and I’m convinced that the people who ship them watched One Tree Hill with their eyes closed and with noise canceling headphones on. The second one is D*mon x Elena which I feel similarly about. It just….baffles me I’m baffled by it.

Also I would like to take this opportunity to say that while I understand why people ship Piper x Leo they were boring as fuck y’all. Chock full of endless, exhausting drama and somehow still just…boring. Seasons 1-2 were good for them and then it was swiftly downhill and!!! boring!!!

(See also T*d x Robin like….we all watched How I Met Your Mother right?? with our eyes and ears?? I just gotta check because sometimes I wonder)

Are there any popular fandom OTPs you only BroTP?

Not “popular” per se, but I think the Veronica Mars fandom has the most random pairings that I’m just not…here for. I can’t say this enough or with enough emphasis but for the love of good romantic Weevil x Veronica?? No thanks!! Absolutely fucking not!!!*

*Again, unless Logan is between them. Then it works because Logan Echolls is there. But if he’s not there don’t let Weevil touch her!! She’s not into it.

Do you have a NoTP in your fandom? Are they a popular OTP?

BOY DO I EVER. Again, L*cas x P*yton and D*mon x Elena and yes, unfortunately, they are both popular otps. There’s other couples I don’t like but these two (esp. LP) are the big ones. I hate them.

Recently, St*les x Lydia also became an unfortunate canon thing which like…unless they break up** I’m not gonna bother finishing s5 or s6 there will be no point.

** Or unless Isaac or Kira or Jackson or ALLISON IN MY DREAMS OR ERICA OR BOYD or Derek or Danny!!! comes back like…I’d die for them. For all of them. And Scott. And the parents. My dream team. I love those characters.

Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?

YES. Fandom can be magical and shit but other times it needs to do me a favor and shove 60,000 tube socks in it.

Ruined is the wrong term but it did make me appreciate other couples infinitely more like half out of spite and half because those couples were in love too, fuckers.

Popular character you hate?

Willow Rosenberg, Xander Harris in whichever corners of the internet haven’t seen the light about how shitty he is yet, I don’t hate Leo Wyatt but I don’t like him either and he wasted my time and deserved to die and stay dead, I also have incredibly complicated Peyton Sawyer feelings but , Liam Dunbar who everyone in the Teen Wolf fandom seems to think is so precious and blah blah blah like that kid offered nothing and robbed Kira and Malia of screentime fuck him, I also don’t enjoy Stiles Stilinksi like I don’t hate him but the show sucks his dick so much and so does the fandom and it’s just?? where?? I don’t see it, (see also: Lydia Martin but it’s complicated~ mostly her storylines have just never been interesting nor have they made sense and she’s dating Stiles now so goodbye), fucking Tim McGee, David Rossi, D*mon Salvatore, Matt Donovan, L*cas Scott, God I just watched Twin Peaks and: Leo, James Hurley, Julie, Catherine, etc., lowkey Richard Gilmore, WALTER WHITE, Hank Voight & Olisnky from CPD, & many more***

***This steered away from “popular characters” and became any character I could think of but the big ones are Willow, Xander, Peyton a little it’s so complicated because I love her but would hit her with a brick but in a mean way, and then the Teen Wolf chars I mentioned (Liam, Stiles, Lydia– in that order). Also D*mon. Fuck him he deserved to die and I’m pressed forever.
