Fandom: The West Wing

Rating: PG-13

Why this must be read:

There has been so much Josh/Sam fic written - both slash and gen - and it's easy to see why. They've got so much chemistry and there's clearly so much back story that ITSOTG only alluded to. This is a very slight but beautifully written with gorgeous lyrical language. Very simply, it's Josh meeting Sam but this is not a romance and they don't get to ride off into the sunset together.


Extract
There's a lover for every season under heaven, Josh thinks, which is why Michelle left him in April and Sam is a warm Indian summer in a room with a creaking fan attached to the ceiling, ice trailing down his skin leaving a searing trail. Sam tastes like sweat and sun and salty air.

Sam is behind him, his fingers at Josh's throat, his hips against Josh's buttocks and his breath in his ear. "Say 'please'," he says.

"Please."
