Restitution by Helen (NC-17)

Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Author on LJ:http://helenish.livejournal.com/

Why this must be read: This fic has one of my all-time favorite of Jim’s description of himself: “He'd grown used to a certain response from women: he was in decent shape, and tall, and not an obvious asshole.”

And I love the last line of the story.


“…I don't even believe this, I can't. You were having sex in my bed," he said again.
"I know," Jim said.
"That's not kinky." Blair said. "I've had sex in that bed a bunch of times. And it's not. That's not all that, kinky, it's just why were you, was it her idea?"
"No."
"Your idea. I just. Wait a minute. Last year, when you. You did wash the sheets, right?"
"I washed all your laundry."
"My socks. That's. they were so white."
"you have to separate the whites,"
"So is this a laundry fetish? Is it a small uncomfortable bed fetish? Is it a make Blair need a hell of a lot of therapy fetish? What?"
"I don't know," Jim said.
"I'm making this whole realization about western culture and how it's really made much vaster inroads on me than I thought it had, because I've just, I'm used to being Blair the open guy, you know? I mean, it wouldn't normally bother me that you were screwing some woman in my bed, because, well, you were going to change the sheets and except for certain lapses in which you screw women in my bed, you're a very considerate roommate. But you see. I mean. I'm just, I'm shocked."
