Ian spits on mickeys hole and they both enjoy it đ€
The first time it happens, itâs out of pure necessity.
Theyâve just chased each other across half of South Side and up six flights of crumbling stairs, blood pumping and hearts racing. By the time they get to the mattress they have set up behind a half-collapsed wall near Ianâs makeshift training course theyâre both practically out of their minds and completely desperate for it.
âGet the shit, Gallagher.â
Mickey already has his jeans pulled down to his knees and is looking back over his shoulder at him expectantly when the crushing realization hits.
Shit.
Mickeyâs eyebrows furrow at Ianâs stricken expression. âThe fuck, Gallagher. You didnât come prepared?â
And no, actually, he hadnât come prepared for Mickey to materialize in the middle of a busy street and crash hisâŠwhatever with Ned, and he sure as fuck hadnât been planning on letting things with Ned go any further than a couple of drinks and maybe a hurried hand job if the old guy was really insistent. So no, he is in no way prepared for the situation he finds himself in nowâass naked but for his socks and rock hard, with his sorta boyfrâ with Mickeyâs perfect pale cheeks just begging to be spread.
He huffs, cheeks pinkening under Mickeyâs accusatory stare.
âGet on your back, Iâll blow you instead.â Ian tries not to let on how disappointed he is, even as he suggests it, but it doesnât seem to matter because Mickey makes no move to roll over. Instead, he bites at his bottom lip, considering.
âYou gonna keep sticking it in that geriatric pedo?â he asks finally, voice gruff but eyes darting around, betraying his nerves.
And Ianâs first instinct is to roll his eyes and protest at that, but, well⊠yeah, okay.
His second instinct is to turn the question around and ask if Mickeyâs going to keep sticking it in Angie Zago or whatever other neighbourhood slut is willing, but, wellâŠ
This is Mickey sort of trying, isnât it? This is missed ya under the bleachers, and this is helping Ian train for West Point nearly every day since heâs been back, and this the mattress that âfell off the back of a truckâ after Ian complained about the concrete floor fucking up his knees. This is following him today and beating the shit out of that geriatric pedo in the middle of the street because he was jealous but couldnât just say it.
This is Mickey staking a claim, maybe.
âNo,â Ian answers, heart racing at what he thinks might be happeningâwhat he thinks Mickey might be proposing. And he wasnât going to ask, but as he shuffles closer on the mattress, he finds that he just needs to know. He needs to hear it too. âAre you?â
Mickey snorts, turning his head back around so Ian can no longer see his face.
âAm I gonna stick my dick in that grandpaâs wrinkly old ass? Nah man, you donât gotta worry about that.â
Ian reaches out then, just a single hand brushing lightly at Mickeyâs hip, and he realizes itâs the first time theyâve touched since rushing up here, too frantic earlier to do anything but tear at their own clothes.
âMickâŠâ
And he must hear something in Ianâs voice then, because when Mickey speaks again the derisiveness of a moment before is gone. He just sounds desperate again. Pleading, even.
âCâmon, Ian, just get in me.â
And itâs not exactly an answer, is it? But itâs Ian instead of Gallagher, and itâs the vulnerability he can feel rolling of Mickey in this moment, and itâs trust, really. AndIan finds thatâs good enough for now.
He grips Mickeyâs ass with both hands and relishes in the heavy exhale it pulls from him, almost like Mickey had been holding his breath. Like relief. And Ian feels it too. So strongly heâs almost faint with it. He spreads Mickey wide and pets at his hole with his thumb, mouth falling open as he watches it flutter and try to pull him in.
âFuck, Mick,â he groans. He feels even more wild than he did a few minutes ago. âStill donât have any lube though.â
Mickeyâs head drops down between his shoulders as Ian presses just the tip of his thumb inside him, dry.
âJust spit on it, Gallagher, Jesus.â
And Ian feels like heâs been kicked in the back, all the air rushing out of his lungs at once.
âAreâ are you sure?â
âHoly fuck, yes, yes, Iâm sure,â Mickey huffs. âYou need to see it in fuckinâ writing or what?â
Ian doesnât react to that, too used to Mickeyâs impatience and bluster for it to faze him anymore and still far too preoccupied with Mickeyâs clenching hole and the prospect of covering it in his spit, which suddenly seems like the hottest thing heâs ever considered.
Mickeyâs spit-slicked hole and Ianâs bare cock sinking into it. Fuck. He prays he lasts longer than two sad pumps.
He knees at Mickeyâs legs and gets him to spread them wider, running his nails up Mickeyâs back before forcing his upper body down to the mattress, leaving just Mickeyâs ass sticking up in the air for Ian to do with as he pleases. He gathers as much saliva in his mouth as he can and leans closer, spreading Mickeyâs cheeks again and spitting directly on his puckered rim, the sound loud and obscene in the quiet of the abandoned rubble.
âOh fuckâŠâ Ian whispers, immediately dragging his thumb through the warm spit and pushing into Mickeyâs hole. âOh fuck, Mick.â
Mickey just groans, pushing back against Ianâs hands, encouraging more.
Ian spits again, this time slowly pushing two fingers into Mickeyâs heat, just to the first knuckles, just to see, but Mickeyâs demand for more has him quickly pushing in the rest of the way, stretching and fucking him open until his hole is gaping, just a little, and fuck, what if he spit right inside of him?
He chokes off a moan at the thought and continues getting Mickey prepped, but once the idea has been raised in his mind it latches on and he canât let it go.
Mickeyâs pushing back against his fingers, three buried instead him now. âCâmon, Gallagher, while weâre still young,â he grouses, though the effect is somewhat lessened by how fucked out he sounds.
Ian reaches a hand around Mickeyâs compact body and presents it palm up and slightly cupped in front of Mickeyâs face.
âYou too,â Ian manages to get out. âSpit.â
Mickey attempts a laugh, but now that Ianâs nailing his prostate with every other thrust of his fingers it sounds more like itâs been punched out him.
âYouâre a freak, Gallagher.â But he doesnât hesitate to do as heâs told, and now Ianâs using Mickeyâs spit to slick up his own cock and shit, maybe he wonât even make it to two sad pumps.
He squeezes at the head of his cock, clear beads gathering at the tip, and Ianâs usually pretty impressive self-control immediately snaps. He pulls his fingers out of Mickeyâs ass and spits directly into his empty hole. Mickey lets out a breathy âFuck,âand itâs all somehow even hotter than Ian was just imagining.
âReady?â he canât help but ask, dragging his throbbing cock through the mess heâs made, his own precum only adding to the wet slick. He half expects another snarky response, and when he doesnât get one, he knows Mickey is just as a far gone as he is.
Ian keeps a steady grip on Mickeyâs hip, his other hand slowly guiding himself inside, and shit itâs tight. And hot. Itâs hot and tight and so, so much that Ian swears his vision darkens at the edges a little bit. He remembers then to breathe at the same time that Mickey moansâmoans! Mickey never moans!âand tries to press back against him. Thereâs more resistance than Ianâs used to, but the feeling of being inside Mickey with nothing between them more than makes up for the lack of lube.
Ian canât look away from where theyâre connected, skin to skin. Heâs practically panting like a dog, his tongue feeling parched and dry, but he gathers as much saliva as he can and spits one last time, watching it pool around where his shaft disappears into the tight ring of Mickeyâs hole before pressing the rest of the way in.
âShit, Gallagher, need you to move.â
Ianâs let himself slump forward across Mickeyâs back, his forehead pressing between his shoulder blades.
âNeedâŠa minute,â he breathes into Mickeyâs skin, eyes squeezed shut. âJesus Mick, you feel so fucking tight. Not gonna last.â
Never one to be kept waiting, Mickey starts up a slow roll of his hips. âDonât worry, Firecrotch,â he says, rocking back and forth on Ianâs cock. âAinât gonna last either. Better make the next thirty seconds count.â
Ian huffs out a laugh and pushes himself up off Mickeyâs back so he can piston into the older boy the way he knows he likes. His belly swoops at the way his bare cock looks drilling into Mickey, and truthfully, itâs not much more than a minute or two later when he feels that familiar tingling in his balls that lets him know heâs about to bust. And shit, he hasnât really thought this far ahead. Should he pull out? Is Mickey going to let himâ
âOh fuck. Mick, Iâm gonnaâ Shit, Iâmââ Heâs the one babbling now. He feels panicked, knowing the clock is quickly running down. Finally, he manages a complete thought. âMickey, where should I come?â
Mickey is working his own cock furiously in his fist, his breathing labored around his moans. Ianâs never heard him be this vocal. His balls are drawing up at the sound of Mickeyâs pleasure, but still Mickey hasnât given him an answer.
âMick, pleaseâŠoh god, oh fuckâŠwhere should Iââ
âCome inside me.â
âOh godâŠâ
Ian only hears a ringing in his ears after that. Without thinking he wraps his arms around Mickeyâs torso and hauls him up so that his back is pressed firm against Ianâs chest. He holds him tight and buries his face in Mickeyâs neck as his release crashes through him, lighting up every inch of his skin thatâs connected to Mickeyâs, thatâs in Mickey.
Dimly heâs aware of Mickey crying out and shuddering around him, his head tipping back to rest against Ianâs, and heâs struck, suddenly, by the intimacy of it allâtheyâve never been closer, he thinksâbefore theyâre both pitching forward and collapsing together, Ian slipping from Mickeyâs body as they come to settle next to each other on their sides.
Theyâre both quiet, save for their ragged breathing, as they slowly come down from their highs. Mickeyâs shirt is still on, but Ian watches his back rise and fall, admires the faint freckles on his exposed shoulder, follows a bead of sweat meandering down Mickeyâs neck from his hairline and has to restrain himself from licking the rivulet it leaves in its wake.
Eventually his gaze drifts lower, and despite coming harder than he ever has in his life less than two minutes ago, heâs hit with an intense wave of emotionâarousal, definitely, but something else tooâthat has his dick twitching and his pulse kicking right back up. Itâs a mess of cum and sweat and spit, and it should be gross, maybe, but all Ian can think is that itâs them. He closes his eyes and smiles.
The first time it happens, itâs the start of something new.
This is what should have happened. No mickey going to share a room with Frank đ
âAgain with the moon? Whatâs wrong with it?â
âI just donât like it!â Mickey said, waving his hands at the window where said moon glared at him from the sky. âIt glows too much! Directly in my eyes! I canât fuckinâ sleep!â
âOkayâŠâ Ian replied slowly. Too slowly. Mickey wasnât being dramatic and unreasonable. He wasnât. âLetâs switch places.â
Mickey sniffed, nose twitching. âWhy would we fuckinâ do that?â
These were their unspoken spots on the bed. Mickey was always near the window, and Ian was near the door.
âJust do it, Mick. And scoot your pillow down a little. Trust me.â
They swapped spots. Mickeyâs head hit the pillow further down the bed, and Ian turned on his side. His chest and shoulder obstructed the window from Mickeyâs view.
âOh,â he said quietly. And then, even more quietly, âThanks.â
Ian rested his hand atop Mickeyâs stomach, rubbing it and smiling softly. âWeâll shop for blinds tomorrow.â
A little belated Happy Easter to all Catholics and I give you this Easter bunny â„
Franny hasn't thought of herself as a little girl for a long time. When you're ten, you have every right to consider yourself a self-sufficient member of society, right? Well, maybe not exactly, but only if your last name isn't Gallagher. She never believed in all that crap about pretty princesses and prince charming. Franny had been a real fighter since childhood and remained that way. At least one member of the ever-growing Gallagher clan actively supports her in that, and that's good enough.
There are rare exceptions, however, when Franny can afford to relax and be the child her many relatives (for some unknown reason) want her to be. Waking up before dawn this Easter Sunday, she watches intently out the window as two huge rabbits hops across the lawn of their house in the semi-darkness and hides something in the evergreen boxwood bushes. Franny isn't going to reveal them, just like she didn't last year and the year before that. Because that's what mature people do.
In a few hours, her cousins will come in and scurry around corners looking for colorful eggs, each time delighting in their finds like the little children they are. Franny is ready to help them to do just that. She's not going to comment to Uncle Mickey that Easter bunnies don't usually smoke or swear. She's not going to explain to Uncle Ian that it's not appropriate for the symbols of the Great Easter to grab each other's butts, even if they're sure no one can see it. After all, Franny is old and smart, and unlike her mom, she knows how to be considerate.
Hello my beautiful anon. Fics are on a temporary hold atm. I have three books being published this year so Iâm on a very strict deadline with my editor because yes, I am also a published author.
I do have plans for my ANB series and hope to continue that soon. And I like to use fics are a pallet cleanser between writing my novels. So hopefully something soon.
This is absolutely incredible. Not only the art but the well thought out backstory behind the art, understanding who Ian and Mickey are and how they got to this part of their lives. đđđ
F1 AU // GALLAVICH
Ian Gallagher is a racing driver, a young star of the McLaren team. Mickey is just a car technician, who only recently joined the team as a trainee.
/long read backstory below/
Okay, I've thought about this a lot. So.. Shameless US but.. huh? living in UK?
First of all, because Formula 1 is more popular in Europe. Secondly, because I want to alter the story of Mickey's growing up. Make it a story about a little boy persevering towards his dreams. And how a simple childhood passion can grow into a potential job opportunity.
If briefly, below I talk about Mickey's developmental stages, along with his final emigration from Ukraine to the UK.
I'm not going into Ian's backstory here. But I'll mention this in more detail at the very end of the post, if you get to the end. Ha ha. Have fun reading!!
---------------
Mickey was six, just a little boy, when he first saw a F1 race on TV. And he was amazed by how quickly the cars could go and how quickly the mechanics performed at pit stops. (Are these even mechanics? Well, they turn the wheels, dad does the same thing in the garage and considers himself a mechanic).
When the next year he went to school in his first grade, then to all the teachers' questions or questionnaires with their âWhat do you want to be when you grow up?â he confidently answered as clearly as his childish language could, that he would definitely become a F1 mechanic. Even though he received only gentle smiles in reaction to his naivety of being a kid, the desire took root in his little head.
---
As he grew older, he continued to enjoy racing, watching every race weekend he could. And while he was a child this did not cause any particular problems. Mom encouraged him in his interests and every New Year gave him tiny branded cars of the teams he loved. But as he gets older, the more often he hears from dad that he is interested in some stupid things. And he didn't want to hear a word about racing at all. As soon as Mickey mentioned it even once, he was cut off mid-sentence.
These are not real cars.
Real mechanics work in a garage with real cars, not kids' toys for show.
Come down to earth. Itâs all somewhere far away and you never even get to one of these races in your life.
---
Well, Mickey talks less about racing out loud anymore. Especially after mom's gone.
Tiny model cars disappeared into the closet's darkness.
His dad began to drag him into their garage more often so that he would get used to work and not wander around idle, lost in his stupid dreams. He had to skip live racing broadcasts as a result. It was sort of suicidal acts to turn this on in the garage on a small TV instead of some dumb music channel with hit songs. Mickey had learnt long ago to keep his mouth shut.
Just listen. Bring it. Grab it. Repair simple details. Don't go under the hood. Don't touch this, don't touch that. And especially don't break anything. Blah blah blah.
Jesus, are you even a man? Take your gentle hands away if you're not ready to get dirty.
---
Despite everything, Mickey still had a dream. One day, he hopes to watch a real-life race. Hear the noise of wheels flying over the track, the roar of engines, the screams of a supportive crowd. He prefers to never talk about his own desire to work as a car mechanic or engineer in F1.
---
Mickey was sixteen when he left after ninth grade for a vocational college to applied mechanics specialty.
Because, well, he had good reasons for leaving school two grades early. At the very least, he was already tired of going to school. He didn't even have any friends there. Yes, he communicated with classmates, but that's not it. It's forced. Just so as not to be an outcast and maintain the status of the Milkovich family by playing dirty tricks at school and bullying others. Did he like it? Absolutely not. These guys were idiots with stupid jokes and always picking on chicks.
They kept asking if he liked any of them and talking about how they looked all the time. Mickey never liked anyone. It wasn't that the girls were ugly, he just didn't find them attractive. But he pushed these thoughts away and ignored them. Left it somewhere near to the tiny race cars in the darkness.
Also, classmates called him into fights on regularly. Not that he was against kicking someone's dumb ass, but that he would prefer better reasons than just trying to prove whose class is above.
Another reason is that, in their family, working with their hands and having a real profession are more valued than going to higher education. Because this is a job for real men. Where will all these managers, lawyers, accountants, stupid psychologists be when their car breaks down? Mechanics will always have work and profit.
As well, Mickey is deeply curious about the workings of the engine and wants to fully understand its mechanisms. He will therefore be able to study this in practice with teachers, rather than with a psychotic bastard who screams at the slightest opportunity.
The only thing Mickey truly wanted to learn at school was English. Not because he loved it. This gave him at least some hope of "breaking abroad for the sake of a good life". Perhaps the main reason for his success was that he had a really great teacher who pushed and encouraged him. Sometimes he would stick around after class and stay just to talk with her. Mickey felt parental care, which he hasn't received lately.
âI believe that you can achieve a lot, Mikhailo. Just believe in yourself.â She told him and he believed her, hugging her a little longer so as not to show his wet eyes.
And well, after leaving school, these words sometimes came to mind during the saddest times, when he returned home after a long day of school combined with an exhausting shift in the family garage. Every time he spoke with his dad, he felt terribly devastated. The dream was literally slipping out from Mickey's hands. A pipe dream, is that what they say? Well, at least he'll try to do something.
---
Mickey was twenty when he graduated and by this time he was actively saving money, hiding it in different places. Also, he planned his escape from home, considered the best routes, and looked at what things he should take with him, confused about whether he would ever return home again.
As he approached his twenty-first birthday, he finally decided to do it. With only a spark of hope, he was ready to leave for nowhere. And okay, Mickey was a realist; he was aware that things might not work out at all and that he would have to return back eventually. But he'll do anything, though, to make sure that this doesn't happen, to avoid having to meet his dad's derisive gaze once more as his goal gets mocked.
After all, a dream is a dream, right? He also had skills and language abilities in his pocket. So he's really ready to do anything to attain even the tiniest success.
---
To get to UK, Mickey had to go through a long journey of transfers from bus to train, from train to plane. He's terribly tired, but here he is. He stands and watches as the new country greets him with heavy rain.
He first found it difficult to adjust to other people's smiling faces. There were a few times when he didn't feel at home because everyone was so friendly and lovely. And these people were incredibly talkative. He'll have to get used to this if he plans to stay here.
The first difficulties he encountered occurred at the department while filling out a form for migrants.
âMik.. Mikai.. Mikaelo?â
âMikhailo.â Mickey interrupted.
The employee's eyes stared blankly at him.
He sighed. âUgh.. Mickey? Yeah, Mickey.â
âOkay, Mickey. Here you are.â
---
Mickey got a job as a mechanic for a small business fairly quickly thanks to his abilities. He was so easily and warmly accepted into the friendly team. Here he first felt respect while working. Mickey got assistance from the job department in extending his visa to stay in the country. His job also provided him with a tiny apartment, deducted from his paycheck.
After a while, feeling a little more self-assured, Mickey started saving money for qualifying courses that would help him in the future.
---
Mickey was almost twenty-four when he successfully obtained all the qualifications that were necessary for the job, as well as to be sure of himself and his knowledge. During this time two full racing seasons had passed. He attended only one race at Silverstone. This was his almost full year in the UK. His skin broke out in goosebumps when he saw the track in person. It wasn't quite what he expected. Mickey literally stood in one place and once in a while cars would drive by. On TV they show a larger overview, but still. He was excited. In this grand prix, a new young racer from the McLaren team took third place for the first time. His name seems to be Ian, and he likes to take risks on the track, driving the car while presenting a strong sense of confidence. And his hair perfectly matches with the team's car.
He missed the second race due to a qualifying exam. But he's not upset. Mickey is closer than ever to his dream. If everything works out, he'll see even more racing. If not, well, then he'll continue to work repairing regular cars. Perhaps he'll be able to attend grand prix events in other countries during his holidays?
But now it's the middle of the season and he's standing in the lobby of the McLaren Technology Center. He's trembling a little and his wild eyes are scanning everything in the immediate area.
Mickey can't believe the reality of what's happening. No he didn't become a mechanic. But.. it's still impressive. He was interviewed and tested to become a temporary vehicle technician for the team as an intern. He was told something about a possible career advancement and access to other things once he completed more qualifications, but he's not sure he heard everything correctly.
Later they tested him on team tests on the track. He's surprised that he was able to concentrate on his speed and did everything exactly as needed.
He actually became⊠exactly the one who changes the wheels and does minor repairs. He joined the technical team and will also work on pit stops during the races. And well, okay, if everything that's happening isn't a dream, he's really happy. Extremely happy. Of course, the longer he studied, the more he wanted to do engineering and development. But that's the tiny step, right? This is already more than anything he could have imagined. He saw the race in real life from the stands, and now he got the opportunity to see everything from the staff. He'll interact directly with the racing car. He might even hear how the team interacts with racers. Unbelievable.
Through the noise in his ears, Mickey hears someone standing beside him talking in a muffled voice.
âHey! You're a new technician, right?â
The guy had already taken off his helmet when Mickey turned around. He softly smiles while stroking his fiery red hair.
Mickey stared at him. When he was brought to the track, he thought that some tester was sitting in the car, but not their young star.
âYeah. Hope soâŠâ He twitched his lip and scratched nose. âYou're Ian, right?â
Of course this is Ian, what a stupid question. It's too embarrassing.
The redhead smile became even larger.
âYeahâŠâ
And just as he was about to add something else, one of the staff called Ian to go back and he hurriedly turned to Mickey and said quickly, âOh, uh, see ya later then, gotta go.â
---------------
I'm glad I finally wrote and drew this. This idea has literally taken over my head so much that I don't have the energy to write Ian's backstory in the same way. Once again I am convinced that writing is hard work. And I want to say again about my love for writers. YOU ARE INCREDIBLE. For my brain, drawing is easier than writing. But it was fun!
!!!AND!!! THE MOST IMPORTANT THING!
If someone suddenly wants to write a big multi-chap slowburn fic or little drabble or do anything, I'll be happy so much with absolutely anything!!
---------------
Let's talk about Ian now.
I was actually going to write a backstory for him too. Maybe at least some minor notes, but I'm not quite sure how best to connect his bipolar with racing. Usually because racers drive go-karts from childhood, get into the junior league and generally build a racing career for years. Maybe he had a breakdown somewhere between seasons and it was quickly noticed?? I donât know⊠And I think about how the team constantly checks him, which at times upsets him and forces him to prove to everyone that he is fine and able to drive the car.
Most likely, in this AU, Gallaghers are either rich, or Ian has a sponsor, if you know what I mean⊠From this fact, a whole lot can change in story. And the second thing seems more likely to me.
I was thinking about how Ian joined the McLaren team at the age of 21, and by the time he first met Mickey he was 22. He had been stable for a long time on medication.
So I'm also considering the possibility that somewhere between his 17-19 years he disappeared from the radar and came back when he found a sponsor who could pay for everything he needed and help him get into the F1 league. At first it was the weakest team, until his potential was noticed and he was offered to move to another team. This fact with the sponsor will probably put a lot of spokes in the wheels (ha).
Racer's body is undergoing an enormous physical strain, so they spend a lot of time in the gym. And Ian really enjoys working out with his team.
Another interesting fact: racers have a super-strong neck to be able to cope with gravitational forces during the race. Therefore, special attention is paid to neck in training. (It seems from the moment I found out this my little fixation beganâŠ)
---------------
I think there's a lot of pining here or something. They seem to be nearby, but due to different job responsibilities, at completely distinct levels. And I really want to read something like this with so slow burning.
So, I guess you can consider this as a big prompt for writing, if it inspires you.
The word âTriggersâ is used so incorrectly these days. Itâs not a trigger if you can read it and keep going without suddenly having a panic attack or have it playing on your mind for days after to the point where itâs emotionally effecting you. Itâs a squick if itâs simply a topic/genre that you find gross or annoying or donât like,
Can we talk about squicks?
Can we talk about how triggers & squicks are not the same thing?
Would I be the asshole if I mentioned that some of the most trauma-filled people also happen to be those who rarely use the word "trigger"? Also, people who have triggers, in the true sense of the word, don't usually talk about their triggers.
Sometimes fanfiction is a love letter to canon, and sometimes fanfiction is pounding on canon's door and yelling for it to get out here so you can kick its ass.
Is it even possible to do what Mickey performs in âgo f yourselfâ
Yes it is đ€ the idea behind that fic was because of a video that appeared on my Twitter timeline of a guy doing exactly that. With the chair and all. Since then Iâve seen many other versions of it being done but IT CAN be done đ
