Both Radar and Hawkeye are surprised.
A first time story.
Written: September 2008. Word count: 400.

"If one of you sirs would just -" Radar came to an abrupt halt and stood mouth open staring into the surgeons' changing room. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. He closed his eyes and reopened them again, but the scene was the same.

Totally oblivious to the fact they weren't alone Captains Pierce and Hunnicutt were wrapped in one another's arms kissing.

Hearing a noise behind him, Radar hastily, but silently, closed the door and stood in front of it.

Two minutes later, after assuring Colonel Potter that he had no idea where Doctors Pierce and Hunnicutt were, but that he'd do his best to find them, he watched the Colonel walk away. He then took a deep breath and peered carefully through the small window only to discover, to his surprise, they were still kissing.

Resigned to the fact he'd have to stay where he was until they came out, he liked and respected both men a lot and there was no way he was going to let them get caught, Radar leaned against the wall and waited.

Finally, after about twenty minutes, laughing and talking as they always did, walking so closely together they kept brushing against one another, as they always did, they came out. Radar told them the Colonel wanted them and then rushed away before they could ask him why he was there.

LATER

Hawkeye sat on his bunk and looked across at the man in whose arms he'd been less than three hours ago. Neither of them had said anything about the kiss or what it'd meant or if it changed anything.

BJ seemed the same as he always had been, just the same. And maybe he was; but Hawkeye wasn't. He hadn't meant it to happen, he truly hadn't. Sure he'd been attracted to BJ from the moment he'd met him, but after hearing him talk constantly about Peg and Erin, Hawkeye had resolved nothing would ever come of it, because it would only mean heartbreak for him.

But the kiss had happened, and like it or not, it couldn't unhappen. And Hawkeye had to say something.

"I'm sorry, Beej," he said.

BJ looked up. "For what?"

"Kissing you. It won't happen again. I -"

To his surprise he felt his mouth covered by BJ's lips, and his body pulled into strong arms. Heartbreak or not, he was in this for the duration.
