Touch You by Audra Rose (NC 17)

Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Length: 40k
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] audrarose
Author Website: Masterfic List
Why this must be read: Because her RPS/SPN fic is to curl up with and die for, so it was a delight to discover that her Jim and Blair have roughly the same effect. In this one there’s a blizzard, they’re on the run, Jim has a fever, and they have to hole up somewhere, just the two of them.. Seriously, first times and hurt/comfort do not get much more endearing and warm-fuzzier than this.

And of course, there's cracking good dialogue too..

With as much calm as he could muster he sat down in the space between Jim’s legs, scooted back until he could lean back against Jim, and was rewarded when Jim moved forward to close the space.

“So what book did you bring?”

Blair showed him the cover. "Ritual Identity and the Mayan Diaspora.”

“We’re running for our lives and that’s the book you take with you?”

“Well…yeah.” Blair shrugged.

Jim settled his head back against the headboard and closed his eyes.

“Fine. You at least have to do the voices.”

“Do the voices?” Blair wondered if Jim was still delirious. “Jim, it’s an anthro text about Mayan burial rites.”

“I’m just saying, that if you’re going to read aloud, you should do the voices.”

Gosh, this is another winner. I love this author and especially this story. Poor Blair, agonizing over taking advantage, and Jim with a history of a gentle restraint. I read this gem three times this week.
