[BBM] Red-Handed (Ennis/Jack, for [livejournal.com profile] cbizkit)

Title: Red-Handed
Rating: PG-13
Fandom: Brokeback Mountain. Based on the moment in the movie where Ennis swears because he left his shirt up on the mountain, and Jack smiles in answer.
Pairing: You get three guesses, and the heterosexual ones don't count.
Disclaimer: The sheer coolness that is BBM belongs to: E. Annie Proulx, Ang Lee, Jake Gyllenhaal, Heath Ledger, and the various institutions and individuals to whom Brokeback Mountain was licensed or belongs, not to me.
Warning: SPOILERS. Major spoilers for a key to the end of the movie (and the story). Also, first-person POV, Jack Twist.
Notes: For [livejournal.com profile] cbizkit, a little bit early, for Chanukah or Christmas, depending on her faith of choice.




Thinks he left that shirt up on Brokeback. Not gonna tell him anything else, not when I got nothin of him. Was easy to steal it from his bag, fingers catching on the cloth. I dint know what to do with it at first, couldn't just keep it, nobody keeps a bloody old shirt 'special when the blood's not his.

Knew what to do with it when I remembered the snow, cold 'til it all melted, making the ground wet. I tucked it warm inside mine, inside my shirt like he'd been inside me. Makes me smile when he cusses cause he thinks he left it in camp.

Awww... best last line ever. And the voice! Thank you so much. <3

I actually didn't know that was Ennis's shirt, though! I thought it was Jack's. :P Of course, that's probably because I could hardly ever understand what Heath Ledger was saying...

So have you seen the movie yet?

It's more apparent in the story. =) What happens is that Jack steals Ennis's shirt and - well, it's kind of obvious now that you've read my fic. ^_^;;;

Yeah, I had trouble understanding Ledger too.

I've seen the first 50 minutes of the movie, but I'm going to go see the whole thing with a friend on the 2nd. I hope. =)

How have you seen the first 50 minutes? :P

And dude, this totally didn't show up on my friends' page. I posted your fic, too, maybe it's not showing up for you, either? Go read it, anyway!

It's a long story, but basically, a bunch of friends and I were going to meet at the theatre, see HP4, Aeon Flux, and Narnia together, but all the people seeing HP4 ditched me. So I skipped out and saw the first 50 minutes of BBM before I had to go to Aeon Flux (where one person didn't ditch me).

this totally didn't show up on my friends' page
That may be because it's backdated by, um... ::whistles:: four days.
