Jekyll and Hyde Trash

Jekyll Tries to Read

A/N Anyone who likes Jekyll and Hyde should be happy to hear that Feliks got a teacher to put a reference to it in the yearbook earlier today. This update is her reward.

Jekyll was sitting in an armchair, reading another book. Hyde had been trying to get his attention all evening, but nothing seemed to work. It had been hours since Jekyll had say down and opened the book, and he hadn't said a word to Hyde since. This wasn't the first time it had happened, either. The doctor had done the same thing for the past six nights.

At first, Hyde had ignored it, going out drinking to amuse himself while the doctor was busy. Tonight he sat with a bottle of wine in the chair opposite Jekyll's. Hyde drank and considered what he should do to draw his companion's attention. He had already tried everything he could think of, from offering the doctor wine to braiding his hair. Nothing had held his attention for more than a few seconds.

There was only one thing left to try. Hyde stood, plucked the book from Jekyll's grasp, and dropped it onto the small table by the chairs. Jekyll moved to grab the book again, glaring at Hyde. Before he could, Hyde grabbed the doctor's wrist and leaned over him. Jekyll's eyes flickered briefly to Hyde's lips out of habit. The blond ignored this.

"What could possibly be so interesting that you would ignore me for days?" Hyde demanded in a low, dangerous tone.

"Various things," Jekyll tried to act like he was somehow in control of the situation.

Hyde shifted so he was straddling Jekyll in the chair rather than standing. The doctor swallowed thickly, realizing he was far from in control.

"You find a good book, so you just pretend I don't exist. Is that how it works?" Hyde asked in a pitiful voice and tilted his head to the side.

Jekyll swore under his breathe and leaned in to kiss the blonde. Hyde tried to keep from smiling as he turned his head away from Jekyll.

"Come on, Hyde," Jekyll groaned, rubbing the blond's arm with his free hand.

Hyde pushed Jekyll's arm away. "No. Why should I let you kiss me? You've been ignoring me all week."

He looked at his right hand, still closed around Jekyll's left wrist and pinning it just above his shoulder.

"I'll stop reading for a while, then," Jekyll proposed quietly. "You can have all of my attention for as long as you want it."

Hyde wanted to kiss the doctor, but he was determined to make him feel bad for as long as possible. Jekyll squirmed in the silence and slipped his arms out of Hyde's grip. Hyde knew his little game was over as soon as he felt Jekyll's hands on his cheeks, gently guiding their faces closer together. Jekyll kissed him lightly. Hyde tried to glare at the taller man, but he didn't feel very threatening.

"Aaw don't look at me like that!" Jekyll said sweetly, hugging Hyde.

Hyde groaned, trying to sound as annoyed as possible as his head was tucked under Jykell's chin. Jekyll squeezed the smaller man briefly and chucked when Hyde squeaked.

"Poor, poor Hyde," Jekyll crooned, grinning. "How could I ignore you for so long?"

Hyde pushed away from Jekyll, genuinely angry again. "Don't mock me!"

Jekyll's face fell, "I'm sorry, love. I'll stop. I promise."

Hyde huffed, "Fine," and kissed Jekyll.

He tried to pull away as quickly as possible, but Jekyll held him in place with a hand on his neck. Jekyll slowly moved his hand into Hyde's hair, and he flipped as much of it over the blond's eyes as he could when he pulled away. Hyde hit Jekyll's chest, but ended up knocking himself onto the floor.

Hyde gripped Jekyll's shirt in panic, hoping he wouldn't fall. Of course, the only thing this did was drag Jekyll out his chair and onto the floor with Hyde. They both laughed at the situation.

"Get off me!" Hyde croaked. "You're so heavy!"

Jekyll laughed harder as Hyde shoved him off. He stood up, offering Hyde his hand. The blond had barely dragged himself off of the floor when Jekyll fell into his chair, tugging Hyde back to his lap. Hyde, caught off guard, squawked. Jekyll gave a Hyde a minute to get comfortable before he kissed the small blond. Hyde kissed back eagerly, bored of trying to stay mad at Jekyll. They shared several intense, passionate kisses before slowing to a gradual stop. Jekyll stared into Hyde's eyes for a few seconds before smiling and drawing the blond close to his chest. Hyde allowed the doctor to adjust his position, and Jekyll wrapped his arms around Hyde.

"This is much better than reading," Jekyll admitted quietly, almost unwilling to break the comfortable silence.

"I fucking told you," Hyde whispered.

They cuddled for what felt like a lifetime before Hyde fell asleep and Jekyll reached for his book with a rebellious grin.
