PSL: Sentinel AU

[dann_0]

Danny is Steve's guide. He is still pretty new at it and working with a Sentinel who has some bad experiences. To top if off, while working a case in Portland he finds out that a guide can have more than one Sentinel who is their perfect match.

"Me? Peace and Tranquility?" He chuckles a little but then he hesitates at Steve's playing with his shirt. Steve seems drunk or high and Danny swallows. He bites his lip. Yeah he likes the way Steve looks at him, the want and need there is nothing he's ever felt before and damn he feels the same way too. But this is a little too much like taking advantage of someone drunk.

"Steve..." He tries to form some sort of reasonable way of saying no, but damn it he wants it too. "How about this, just the shirt." That is nothing Steve hasn't seen before and while being touched and .. licked is something very different at least it isn't taking advantage. besides, he can keep his hands to himself. He reaches down and undoes a few buttons for Steve.

"So you've been with someone else like this?"

Once he has access to Danny's chest, Steve puts his head over the other man's heart and sighs in contentment. He slips his hand inside the shirt and holds Danny's side just under the ribcage. He can feel the other man breath, hear his heart and his scent is all around him. A knot Steve hadn't realized was bunched tight inside him starts to relax and he closes his eyes to just be.

It's not long before his breathing and heartbeat synchs to Danny's and while Steve is still feeling high he's not as desperate. "No," he replies to Danny's question, "not without help and even then it wasn't like this." Meaning they had tried drugging him. Tried to force him to connect and to need their chosen guides more than he was able to do on his own.

Danny makes a sound of anger and frustration. But he pushes it back down and the reaches up to let his fingers play in Steve's hair. "Bastards." He sighs and holds Steve. "Relax Steve, I am not going anywhere for a while." It feels good to just hold Steve like this, for once be the big strong protector.

With the hand moving through his hair, and the permission to just relax, he does exactly that. It feels so much different than anything he's experienced before. A calmness that he's not found in any other way.

He doesn't know how long he lays cuddled on top of Danny, but after a while he starts to talk. "For sentinels, our senses are enhanced. We can adjust our senses as we need but control can be an issue. A guide can help us go further and pick up more detail. But we can also become overwhelmed with our senses and zone. I was zoned when you came in. Everything is out of whack and nothing makes sense. A guide can pull us back and help us reset." He smiles. "So yes, Danny, you bring me a sense of peace and tranquility. The sound of your voice is settling and your presence reassuring. Your scent is better high than any drug I've ever experienced and you taste amazing. Your touch instantly calms me down."

Moving his head he looks up at Danny. "But I've never had a good who I was so in synch with. Someone who I needed and had to experience. That's never happened to me before." He rubs his chin into Danny heart. "The sound of your heart beating is a lullaby and mine wants to be in tune with yours."

Danny's breath is almost starting to even out when Steve speaks. There is something about this that just feels so damn right. The only thing even close had been when he'd been head over heels for Rachel and they'd cuddled like this. But that had been just being in love, this is more. He loves Steve yes, the man has managed to become family in less time than anyone else had before.

But he blinks his eyes open and looks down at Steve. "And that is what I did? Helped you get back?" But the flattery has him off kilter. He wants to respond with something witty but he has nothing. All he has is warm, comforting sappiness for the guy on top him. "I am not going anywhere, I am staying here with you. If you need me to keep you grounded that is what I am going to do. Alright? You need to show me how to do it but I'll do it."

Humming, Steve nods in response to Danny's questions. "Yeah. I could hear your voice but it sounded far away and the words were muffled. But then I felt warmth and I assume you must have been hugging me because your words got louder and I followed them back to you."

Steve puts his head back down on Danny's chest so he can hear Danny's heart right in his ear. He rubs his cheek against the other man's chest and sighs in contentment. His hand is in Danny's shirt, gently stroking the line of his bottom rib. "Thank you, Danny. We'll need to talk later. There's lots you need to know but..." But right now he just needs this. "Just keep doing what you're doing. All of it. It's exactly what I need."
