RPF (other), Rachel Maddow/Keith Olbermann, genderfuck, 2/2
PART TWO
Rachel's hand slid down his arm and came to rest at his hip. "And would it be entirely inappropriate if I did this?" she asked, her thumb tracing small circles through the fabric of Keith's robe.
Keith stiffened. "Rachel...”
She dropped her hand and took a step back. "Sorry. I didn't mean...”
Keith took a deep breath, seemed to brace himself. Rachel couldn't tell if he was going to yell at her or hit her, but at the moment she thought she deserved either. Why had she done something so stupid, practically jump on him when he was vulnerable? She knew Keith liked her, but that hardly gave her the right -
Suddenly Keith's arms were around her, his hands, newly delicate, perched on the small of her back. Rachel could feel his breasts brush against her as he pulled her closer.
"It's completely appropriate," he murmured. She smiled, brought her arms up to his shoulders.
"You're sure?" she asked.
He nodded, his face so close she could count his eyelashes. "Given that I don't know how this happened or how long it might last, I should probably familiarize myself with my new body."
"'Familiarize'?"
"That's right." He squeezed her waist, a smile on his lips. "Care to help me?" he asked her.
"I'd love to," she said, then leaned in slowly to kiss him.
They stood there, kissing lazily until Keith gently pushed Rachel away. He began undoing the ties of his robe as she slowly, deliberately, pushed it off his shoulders.
"Last chance to back out," she told him.
"I might," he answered, "If I'm the only one who's going to be naked."
Rachel laughed but ceded the point. She took a step backward and toed off her shoes, pulled off her shirt. Before she could even step out of the pajama pants now pooled at her feet, Keith's hands were all over her. She laughed again and batted him away.
"If you just wait a minute, we'll go into the bedroom and I'll show you the fun stuff."
He gazed at her reverently. "There can't be anything better than this, than you."
She shook her head. "Oh, babe; there's so much more I can do than just stand here and look pretty."
"No!" Keith said, horror in his eyes. "That's not what - "
"Keith, I was joking. Come on."
Then she led him into the bedroom where, Keith would later reflect, his transformation turned out not to be so bad, after all.
