Title: "Afterthought"
Pairing: Elijah Wood/Josh Hartnett
Rating: PG
Summary: Elijah remembers.
Disclaimer: Never happened.
Notes: For Airgiodslv, for the First Lines Challenge.
Everything was the same. Only different. But that's the way it's supposed to be, right? People're supposed to move on, do different things, have new experiences. Live. Natural order of things and all. For all that people are creatures of habit, they crave the new and unseen. Virgin territory.
Elijah sometimes wonders if that's all he'd ever been -- shy, stammering virgin -- just another notch, another conquest. Wonders why the idea doesn't bother him as much as it should. He'd been used, cast aside when filming ended, just another afterthought in Josh's life.
But, at least he'd been a thought first. And maybe, maybe, that was all that mattered in the end.
