HB drabble: Forward the Unknown [Dakin/Posner, general]
Title: Forward the Unknown Author: celandineb Fandom: History Boys Pairing: Dakin/Posner Rating: general Summary: Dakin wonders what will happen next. Note: For soberloki who asked for Dakin/Posner, secret, back scratch, trunk.
It was never a secret, Posner's feelings for Dakin. To Dakin it's like having an itch on his back that he can't quite scratch. Whenever Posner sat behind him, he could practically feel those spaniel eyes.
And now Dakin is packing his trunk to go to Oxford, knows that elsewhere in Sheffield Posner is doing the same, and so are Scripps and Rudge and the other boys Dakin worked so long with. The ones going to Cambridge he may not see again. But he'll see Posner, he is certain, and he wonders what the hug he gave Posner might mean.
