    Summary

    David is quitting.

    He’s had enough of working for a photography company with an off-the-books philosophy of "sleaze and cheese", he's had enough of getting forced into assignments at the last minute when the company president decides he's flitting off to party with D-list celebrities instead. He’s quitting. This is, in fact, his last job.

    At least it's an easy shoot - a puff piece on some up-and-coming Canadian singer-songwriter on the indie circuit who's just been catapaulted to widespread fame. No complications, no controversy. He'll be in his apartment and wallowing in his bamboo-silk sheets before he knows it.

     

    A PhotographerDavid fic inspired by THAT photo shoot by Vanessa Heins.

    Summary

    If David had asked out of jealousy or insecurity or even just a misplaced desire to mend the big closeted hole in Patrick’s past, he would be more than happy to ignore it, let it drop, as requested. But that’s not why David asked. He asked because he’s curious. Because Patrick has an experience with sex that David Rose, his gloriously queer boyfriend who’s had every kind of sex there is, doesn’t understand but wants to.

    And that’s. Well. That’s not something he’ll forget. That’s an opportunity.

    That’s a question he’s going to answer.

    Summary

    The moment he saw David, Patrick's heart started pounding. Hey, I think I’m in love with you felt dangerously close to being something he wanted to say out loud, even though he knew it would be a terrible idea. Especially this early on. Especially with his business partner. Especially because he’d only recently figured out the whole liking other men thing. Especially because now he was officially—having sex—with the other men. Man. With David. This is fast, he thought.

    A story about sex, intimacy, and falling in love way before you meant to.

    Summary

    They’ve been dating for almost a month, and Patrick still hasn’t even seen David naked, much less had anything approaching sex. It’s completely unacceptable. He had more game than this in high school, which is pretty sad, all things considered.

    Three and a half weeks of his hands and his imagination is more than enough, thanks.

    OR: David and Patrick have some alone time. Patrick has some ideas.

    Summary

    ‘David knew exactly how attractive he was – it was his personality that was forever letting him down. But Patrick…Patrick honestly seemed to have no idea how that spoon in his mouth felt like sex to David, how the bright arc of his smile cut the world open. Or had it cut David open? Either way, it made David feel painfully awake.

    Patrick continued to watch David, and the quality of his smile changed.

    Okay, so maybe he knew.’

    David and Patrick eat a lot of ice cream.

    Summary

    “You’re looking a little lost there sweetheart.”

     

    Patrick startles out of his thoughts, realising that he’s been standing stock still in the middle of the crowd for longer than is advisable.

     

    “Why don’t you come over here and grab some of my shade.”

     

    The voice is coming from under a tent displaying a collection of art works—some black and white, others a vibrant chaotic mix of colours, clashing dramatically with the bright rainbow flag spread over the table at the front of the booth. There’s an acrylic sign with the name “RoseBudd Collective” printed on it to the left; a collection of flyers, stickers and pins are arranged neatly on the right. Standing behind the middle of the table is a man Patrick is almost too intimidated by to look at directly. It’s like staring directly into the sun after a cold, dark winter.


    In which Patrick takes an impulsive trip to NYC for Pride and meets David—beautiful, sexy, and clad in leather.

    Summary

    “Oh,” says the voice, surprised. “Is it really that hard to find a dick to suck around here, or are you just that into the whole anonymous angle?”

    Patrick can’t help but laugh. “Honestly?” He says, still disguising his voice a little, which is stupid because he would absolutely remember if he’d ever met someone that sounded like the other man before. “I just didn’t want to have to talk to someone about it.”

    There’s a little laugh and Patrick can’t help but feel a little smug; he loves making people laugh.

    “I can understand that. I have more than once wondered if I could get a hookup to answer the door already wearing a ball gag and convince them that’s my kink.”

    Summary

    He should stop. Patrick knows he should stop. Hell, he knows he should have stopped a good ten minutes ago, at this point.
    But he doesn’t want to stop, is the thing.
    Besides, he’s not even sure he would know how to at this point. He doesn’t remember the words for… that, for whatever he was just thinking. He’s sure there’s a word for it, but it’s one of the words that his brain has long-since shoved aside to make room for more important ones, like oh my god holy shit harder more please please please, and, David. Most importantly, David.

    Or, Patrick learns how to want.

    Summary

    After he's diagnosed with a terminal illness, Patrick blows up his entire life and goes on his dream vacation.

     
    Story is based on the movie Last Holiday. As usual, I’ve only retained the broadest strokes of the movie plot & taken many liberties. You don't need to be familiar with the movie to read this, but I love and recommend it. Queen Latifah is amazing. This was meant to be written with alternating POV by chapters, but David, and especially Patrick, had other ideas and I let them do what they wanted. I think the POV changes are clear, though.

    ***If you need/want assurances about this story before choosing to read it, please click here, but be aware SPOILERS lurk there.***

    Summary

    But no, there’s an honest-to-god gift sitting on the foot of the bed. The meticulous wrapping job with precise corners and an elegant (but understated) bow on top could only have been done by David’s deft hands, but Patrick has no other clues about what this might be.

    “David?” Patrick inclines his head and gestures toward the box. “What’s this?”

    “Mm, an anniversary present.”

    David and Patrick celebrate their fourth anniversary.
