comment_fic prompt: Stargate Atlantis/Any, Evan Lorne +/ Any, roommates at college.
“Mind if I sketch you?”
Evan’s question seemed innocent enough once he’d said the words aloud. But when his roommate Rodney glanced up from his textbook, both irritation and confusion furrowing his brow, Evan felt his heart stutter.
Not so innocent, as it turned out.
“Why?” Rodney asked, his voice defensive.
Evan shrugged. “No reason. Just need something to sketch, and you’re here.”
Rodney scoffed and rolled his eyes. “Glad I’m such an inspiration to you. Whatever. I’m not holding still though.”
Evan tried to bite back a grin and failed. “Don’t need to. It’s just a rough sketch.”
They sat in companionable silence after that, Rodney turning the pages of his textbook and Evan drawing lines that became shapes that became a rough likeness of Rodney McKay, lost in thought.
He was beautiful.
Evan dated the sketch in the bottom right corner and carefully wrote out his initials - EBL. He tore the page from his sketchbook, folded it in half, and stood up from his bed.
“Gotta go. Here.”
He gently tossed the paper onto Rodney’s open textbook. Rodney picked it up immediately, unfolding it to see what he’d been given.
Evan couldn’t quite read his face, but he noticed Rodney’s temples were flushed pink.
“You can throw it out if you want. Thanks for letting me practice.” Evan turned to leave their cramped dorm room.
“Wait. Where are you going?”
Evan glanced back. “Modeling for a life drawing class.”
“Wait - you mean like -” Rodney sputtered but didn’t finish his thought, so Evan finished it for him.
“I’ll be modeling nude, if that’s what you’re getting at.”
Rodney gulped, his face a deeper shade of red now. “Oh.”
“See you later, McKay.”

The next day, Evan spotted his sketch sticking out of one of Rodney’s several textbooks.
He smiled.
