Fics like Something Unsaid (something worthwhile)

"You're embarrassed," Beth blurts. Rio makes a sound that's part grunt, part snort. But not, she notes, outright denial. "You are," she says, understanding dawning. "You had to call me for help, and you hate it, don't you?" "And you just fell your ass all the way down a hill ‘coz you're too spiteful to make sure you don't already have everythin' you need, so how 'bout we call it even, yeah?" She’s quiet for a moment, the steady, monotonous rhythm of the rain almost like static, enveloping them in white noise. His body moves under her hands, solid and so, so warm. "I wasn't spiteful," Beth mutters. Now the sound he makes is definitely a snort, closer to a laugh. "Not tonight," she says, the admission prim. As close to an acknowledgment that maybe he has a point as she's willing to go. This time he all the way laughs, and Beth can’t help the way her lips twitch in response, so she ducks her head to the side to hide it from him.
