trophy boyfriend
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
summary: a high school reunion with a special appearance by yours truly
words: 809
a/n: my first and most likely last drabble. the product of my latest dreams and delusions. bon appetit 👩🏻‍🍳
“Time flies when you’re having fun.” You wondered why no one had thought to mention how painstakingly slow time passes when you’re doing the opposite. You had graduated high school seven years ago and to say that you had drifted from your friends would be an understatement. The daily updates about everything from dorm room decor to upcoming deadlines had withered down to annual “Happy birthday! Hope you’re doing well.” texts. This is why it came as such a surprise when an invitation for a class reunion showed up in your inbox. 
“It looks like they’re planning a high school reunion now that the pandemic has settled down. I won’t be going, of course.” You casually brought up the topic over dinner with Carlos, your boyfriend of three years. Life was busy enough as it was, and this was one of those rare nights you had him all to yourself. No late-night cramming for you and no post-race briefings for him. You couldn’t help but wonder how you got so lucky to end up with the doe-eyed Spaniard sitting opposite you. Carlos had devoted the whole evening to making his signature burgers, only pausing for the occasional dance break with Piñon. 
“You know what? I think you should go.” The uneasy look on your face was enough for him to reach across the table to hold your hand. “Hey, look at me. No one knows what you’ve been up to and you’ve come so far.” Carlos was right about you disappearing off the face of the earth. You kept a low profile on all social media platforms, preferring to keep your inner circle small. The only people who knew where you were at any given moment were your mom, Carlos, and your study group at medical school. The shift to online classes during the pandemic had allowed you to follow your boyfriend from race to race but you had somehow managed to stay out of the public eye. You treasured what the two of you had, a love that was just yours. 
It took a walk to the gelato shop and Carlos running you a hot bath with bubbles to finally convince you to go. It just so happened that the reunion was happening on a Sunday. “It would’ve been more fun with you by my side. I could’ve introduced you as my trophy boyfriend.” You joke, mentally calculating the travel time between the venue and the circuit. “I’ll see what I can do, amor.” He says, giving you a kiss goodnight before turning out the lights.
Sunday came and your eyes were glued to your phone screen as you checked Carlos’ location on the “Find My” app. It was obvious you were using your phone as an escape from interacting with the crowd slowly gathering in front of you. “Hi! We didn’t even think you’d show up, Y/N. We’re all dying to know what you’ve been up to!” You heard a shrill voice approach you from behind and immediately knew it belonged to the former class president. You chatted back and forth, slowly dying inside as you were bombarded with questions from left and right. 
You had gone to an all-girls school, and it wasn't long before the topic of significant others came up. "Are you seeing anyone? What line of work are they in? Medicine? Finance, maybe?"  You hadn’t prepared for this one: “He works with cars.” That was all your frazzled brain could muster. “Oh, a mechanic! Give me his number. I need to get my car detailed,” someone said. Way to jump to conclusions, you thought as you politely excused yourself from the hustle and bustle. 
You were walking back to rejoin the crowd when you noticed everyone gathered around the only man in the room. He appeared to be holding up a gleaming, gold trophy, truly captivating his devoted audience. “No, it can’t be,” you thought as you edged closer. You could hardly believe your eyes but there he was in all his glory. “Lots of driving for one day but it looks like I made it just in time.” Carlos says, lighting up the room with his infectious charm. 
A million selfies and autographs later, you were being driven home in Carlos’ 812 Competizione. Carlos’ hand lay softly on your thigh as you leaned into the breeze seeping through the car’s open window. 
“I realized something tonight, Carlos. I don’t need emotional validation from people I hardly know anymore. None of them would be crazy enough to fight post-race pain and fatigue just to make me happy. You, my love, are all that matters.” It all comes out like word vomit, but you mean every single word. He takes a quick glance at you and chuckles. “Te quiero tanto. It was my honor being your literal trophy boyfriend, even if it was just for the night.”

Heart’s Choice - Chapter 1
Tumblr media
*Warning Adult Content*
- Carlos -    
The behemoth looms over me. 
I lie on my back, knees drawn up as my eyes roam a body built for hard work and showing the signs of it. 
Hard, dirty, strong and big — just the way I like it. 
I spot what I'm really after and adjust my position a little.
"Oh, yeah. There you are. Now, come to Papi."
I bite back a groan as I reach for the thick, well-oiled shaft and slide my hand along its length.
It's larger than I anticipated.
"Fuck. Hang on baby. I gotta grab a bigger..."
With a pop and a screech of metal, the gigantic pickup truck I'm working on slips off the jack and drops a foot, bouncing on its tires. 
The axle I'd been feeling up for damage comes to rest a finger's width above the bridge of my nose.
I stare at it without breathing for what feels like a tiny eternity and then, discovering that I'm still alive, I scramble from beneath the vehicle and let loose.
"Puta Madre. Mother-fuck. Kyle. I thought I told you to check the fucking jacks, you dumb-fuck shit-head."
My hapless assistant comes flying in from the work yard, his pale face shiny with sweat and his blue eyes wide and stares at the slipped jack as if it's the most horrific thing he's ever seen.
"Holy shit. Oh, shit, Mr. Martinez. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, no thanks to you."
"I swear I checked them, Mr. Martinez. Just like you showed me. I swear I did." 
He twists his hands in the dirty rag he holds and shifts from side to side, miserable with anxiety and my anger fades.
I rake a hand through my long hair, then remember my hands are covered in axle grease and swear. 
"Chinga..."
"What?"
"Fuck," I say. "Chinga means fuck."
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Martinez."
"How many times I gotta tell you? It's Carlos, Kyle. Carlos. Señor Martinez was my grandpa."
"Sorry, Mr. Martinez," Kyle whispers, eyes on the floor. "I'll try harder. I swear. Please don't tell my aunt."
I cast my own eyes heaven-ward and pray for patience. 
"Why would I tell your aunt?"
"'Cause she made you hire me. I mean, that's the only reason I'm here, right?"
I rub the back of my neck and sigh. Kyle isn't wrong. 
His aunt, Lucille, is my landlady and neighbor and she asked me to give him a job. 
Kyle is, as my own aunt would say, a sandwich short of a picnic and a magnet for trouble. 
A foster kid raised by his aunt, he dropped out of high school, fell in with the wrong crowd, spent some time in juvie, got out, got in trouble again, got out again and now he's twenty two and his prospects are dim. 
Life handed Kyle lemons and he can't afford the sugar to make lemonade.
I sympathize. I really do. 
I had my own troubles growing up, different troubles but no less damaging and I want to give Kyle every chance I can. 
The problem is, I can barely afford the sugar myself, much less Kyle's meager pay.
His aunt isn't even asking for much. 
In exchange for reduced rent, Lucille proposed I hire him as my assistant, teach him the mechanic's trade and keep him on the payroll for at least a year. 
She just wants him to have a chance; to have something, anything, legitimate to put on a resume.
I wouldn't complain if not for the fact he's almost killed me three times already and he's only been working here two weeks.
"Kyle," I say, rubbing my brow. "Look. Why don't you go get us some lunch, okay? Rexi's burgers, down the street. Here..." I pull out my wallet, remove a twenty I can ill-afford to spend and hand it over. "I'll have the classic with fries. Get yourself what you want."
He takes the bill, stuffs it in his pocket and leaves, shoulders hunched and shoes scuffing the concrete floor.
When he's gone, I crack my neck and take a closer look at the truck.
"Fuck," I hiss. 
There's a small dent and scrape in the paint I'll have to fix. 
Fortunately, the truck's owner is a friend.
When I moved to Spring Lakes and opened my own garage, it felt like the world was my oyster. 
I had new friends, a new home and thanks to a certain demon, I was finally free of the possessions that had plagued me since childhood.
That's right, I got possessed. A lot. 
Ghosts, demons, I don't even know what, sometimes. 
All I know is my aunt, Toni, was the only person who could keep me safe. 
She raised me, fed me, clothed me, gave me a home and taught me everything I know about cars. 
She happened to be an exorcist, too, one of a long line in our family and she used me as a tool of her trade. 
I didn't mind, usually but I also didn't have a choice. 
How do you say 'no' to your only caregiver, when they're the only person in the world who gives a shit about you?
Then I met a man who can turn into a bear and a boy who's part demon and in a moment of pure desperation I got in the back of this very truck and left my old life in the dust.
I haven't looked back but the truth is, my aunt did a good job. 
She sheltered me from a lot of shit but in the process she left me a little unprepared for 'real life.'
On the one hand, things are good. 
I've got my own business and my own place. 
I got friends and I'll be twenty-seven in two weeks.
On the other hand, there are things that cost me sleep. 
My business is struggling and my place is a rental held together with duct tape and prayers. 
My friends are amazing but they got their own lives and I'm still single, not for lack of trying, unfortunately.
Rising, I catch sight of myself in the cab window's reflection and sigh.
I used to think I was hot stuff. 
Dark eyes under expressive brows, olive-toned skin and a mouth that drew the eye. 
I had young Johnny Depp or Antonio Banderas vibes or so I imagined and I wore my chestnut brown hair long and lush. 
I wasn't just pretty; I was masculine, too, trim and toned from real, hard work, with grease under my nails and dirt on my skin. 
Who wouldn't wanna call that his own? Everyone, apparently.
Before I left Toni and my old life behind, I blamed it on the possessions. 
Can't fault a date for dipping after some hell-spawn takes you for spin. 
But once I was free of that, I thought things would change. 
I thought, finally, I'd have them all swiping right, calling me back or better yet, asking for my number.
No such luck.
I run my hand along the side of the truck. 
The weeks I spent on the road with Ian and Sam were, while harrowing, the best of my life. 
I guess I thought if I followed them here, the good times would roll.
They haven't. 
And now I can't help wondering, if the possessions weren't the problem, then maybe the problem is me. 
Or maybe, if I can't find what I'm looking for, then what I'm looking for isn't here.
I've decided I'll give it my all, throw my heart and soul into my business but if it fails, then I'm out. 
I'll be like Jack, hit the road and never come back no more.
~ ★ ~
By seven o'clock, I'm pissed. 
Kyle seems to have done a Jack, too and used my twenty to buy a ticket to fuck-knows-where. 
He never came back with my lunch, anyway and I figured he got distracted by something and decided to fuck off for the rest of the day. 
He plays the innocent card well but he's not as dumb as he pretends to be. 
He knows I can't fire him.
Hell, for all I know he set the jack up wrong on purpose to play a prank on me. 
A potentially murderous prank that could have crushed my skull but a prank, nonetheless.
At any rate, I'm in a foul mood by the time Ian Foley comes to pick up his truck at the end of the day.
"I'm sorry," I say, indicating the dent and scratch. "I won't charge you for the repairs and I'll do the body work free, too."
Ian rubs his short red beard and blows a breath through his nose. 
"I'm not worried for the truck," he says. "I'm more concerned you're still using this crap equipment, Carlos. You know old shit like this is a hazard."
I bite back a rude reply. 
Of course I know it, I was raised to know it. 
I grew up in a fucking garage for fuck's sake.
"I'm still saving for the upgrade," I say. "It was my mistake. As the mechanic, it's my responsibility to do the safety check. I shouldn't have relied on Kyle."
“Hmm.”
Ian's noncommittal grunt says more than he knows, that if I need an assistant, I should hire one I can trust and if I can't trust Kyle, then he shouldn't be working here.
"What do you I owe you?" he asks and I frown. 
"I told you. Nothing."
He shakes his head. 
"Nah. You musta spent eight hours on this. Parts an' labor... I'm guessing four hundred."
He pulls out his wallet, counts the bills,and holds them out to me.
I shake my head. 
"I can't. I damaged your vehicle and took twice as long as promised. The Martinez Motors guarantee is 'on time or no charge.' So it's no charge."
Rather than argue, Ian grabs my hand and presses the wad of bills into my palm.
"Take it, Carlos. You earned it. My business is doing well right now and I can spare it. Someday, that might not be the case. Someday I might be the one who needs help. That's what friends are for. This isn't charity. It's support. And you can put yourself first sometimes. You're worth it. Understand?"
I nod and accept the money.
"Thanks, Ian. You let me know if you're not satisfied, though, right?"
I hand him his keys and he winks. 
"You bet your ass. My truck is my baby. Well, other than Sam."
He gets in his truck and leaves,and I let my shoulders slump as I fall into one of the stained waiting area chairs and bury my face in my hands.
I remember the first time I saw Ian Foley, in a little pub where I was waiting tables. 
He was just my type, big and rough, with red hair and a pair of startlingly blue eyes. 
He had one eye now but he was no less handsome for the loss. 
Sometimes, I wondered what might have happened if he'd met me first, instead of Sam but the reality was he'd never shown a hint of interest.
I was lucky he considered me a friend. 
Still, someday I want someone to put me first.
My phone buzzes and I pull it from my pocket. 
It's a text and my heart leaps at the name attached to it. 
Alejo, a guy I hooked up with the week before at a bar. 
He'd seemed pretty into me, at least until he got what he wanted. 
Then he'd basically told me to fuck off. 
But maybe I'd misinterpreted things. 
I'd had a few drinks and my head wasn't totally clear at the time.
Alejo: Hey I'm. bored Wanna hang out? 
I start to type and then my head catches up to my eager heart 'and hormones' and I read the text again.
He's bored and too lazy for punctuation and I'm a distraction.
One of many, no doubt. Still...
I bite my bottom lip, finger hovering above the screen. 
Then, with an exhalation, I silence my phone and pocket it again.
‘Not tonight, Alejo. Not ever again, actually.’
Ian's right. 
Maybe if I stop acting so desperate, something better than guys who prey on desperate guys will come my way.
Maybe.
Exhausted, I drag myself up to the little apartment above the garage, take a shower and flop into bed. 
Kyle's going to get an earful tomorrow and I'm taking that twenty out of his pay.
~ ★ ~
Bright and early, I'm roused by a persistent and obnoxious sound. 
Not my alarm but the buzz of the bell on the shop door below. 
Blearily, I roll into a sitting position and rub my hands over my face before jolting unsteadily to my feet. 
Dressed in my boxers and sleeveless nightshirt, I lean on the wall for support as I descend the stairs to the floor below, my brain struggling to catch up to my body and understand who would be at the door this early and why.
It must be a customer with a scheduled drop off, which Kyle must have forgotten to put in my calendar.
When I open the door, however, I discover not a customer, but a pair of officers in uniform. 
I blink at them and they stare at me. 
One is male and one is female. 
The female officer speaks first.
"Mr... Martinez?"
I nod, suddenly much more awake and much more conscious of my attire or lack thereof. 
"Yeah. Um... I mean, Yes, that's me. Carlos Martinez. How can I help you, officers?"
"We'd like to ask you some questions, if you don't mind."
"What about?"
"You know a Kyle Peters?"
"Yeah. Yes. He's my... he's my assistant," I clear my throat.
The male officer speaks. 
"In what capacity?"
I turn towards him and frown. 
He has short brown hair and green eyes and he looks about ten years older, eight inches taller and fifty pounds more muscular than me.
He's also hot. And straight. Definitely straight.
"In the garage," I say. "I'm a... I'm a mechanic."
"So I gathered," the officer's tone is dry and I flush, embarrassed.
"Um... So what's this about Kyle?" I ask, running a hand through my hair. "What's the little shit gone and done now?"
"That's what we're here to find out," the female officer says and I groan. 
"Don't tell me. He stole some shit, again."
"No, Mr. Martinez," the male officer drawls, drawing my attention back to him. "He's dead."

Like Brothers
Summary: Carlos has an accident at baseball practice and is unable to get in touch with Ray or Julie so he call Luke instead. (Requested)
Word Count: 1.6K
“Luke” Carlos says when he hears the older boy answer the phone.
“Hey buddy, what’s up?” Luke asks, he’s kind of confused and worried as to why Carlos has rang him because he knows Julie had given her brother Luke’s phone number for emergencies when he can’t get a hold of her or their dad.
“Can you come pick me up?” he asks which confuses Luke even more.
“Yeah, where are you?” he asks, already grabbing his shoes as he hears Carlos telling him he’s at baseball practice “Okay, give me five minutes” he says before the younger boy hangs up. He slides his shoes on quickly, grabbing his car keys and letting his mom know that he’s going out. 
It doesn’t take him long to get there, parking the car and jumping out going in search of the boy. Luke finds Carlos sat on the bench watching the rest of his team play and the closer he gets to him he can see that he’s holding his arm against his chest and he wonders what the boy has done.
“Jeez Carlos what have you done?” Luke asks as he reaches him but before he gets an answer the coach comes over to them.
“Are you here for Carlos?” the coach asks and Luke nods not getting a chance to say anything because Carlos speaks up letting him know that he couldn’t get a hold of his dad because he was working. “Okay well you should probably get that arm looked at, you went down pretty hard” the coach says as Carlos stands up and goes to pick up his bag but Luke knocks his hand away.
“I’ve got it” he says, putting it over his shoulder and Carlos gives him a grateful smile as he says goodbye to his coach and follows Luke back to his car. Luke unlocks it letting Carlos climb into the passenger seat and he puts the bag in the trunk. Climbing into the car himself he notices Carlos struggling to put the seatbelt on with one hand.
“Do you want a hand?” Luke offers knowing how stubborn he can be when it comes to doing things by himself. Carlos groans and nods as Luke twists in his seat to face him, he takes the seat belt from Carlos’s hand and pulls it across him, careful to avoid his arm and clicks it into place. 
“So a trip to the emergency room then” Luke says as he buckles his own belt before starting the engine. They’re quiet on the way to the hospital, only the sound of the radio playing softly in the background as Luke navigates the roads. The car park is surprisingly full when they get there and Luke has to drive around it a couple of times before he finds a space.
At the front desk of the emergency room they ask the usual questions: name, date of birth and what they’re here for. Luke answers the first and last questions easily but pauses and looks to Carlos for his date of birth, which makes him laugh.
“You’ve been dating my sister for how long and you still don’t know my birthday” he asks and Luke shakes his head waiting as Carlos answers the lady behind the desk, after she inputs it into the computer she tells them to take a seat and that it won’t be long.
They sit for about half an hour before a nurse calls them through, taking them into a room where she can examine Carlos’s arm. She makes small talk as she checks it over, asking how he did it and when he tells her it was at baseball she talks to him about that.
When she’s finished, she sits back in her chair “I think it may be a break but we’ll send you down to x-ray just to double check and then we’ll get you patched up” she smiles leading them out of the room and telling them where to find the x-ray department. The boys follow her directions only getting lost once on the way there, which Luke thinks is a miracle because all the corridors feel like a maze. Luke lets them know that Carlos is there and they take a seat waiting to be called through, this time they’re not waiting long before his name is called. The x-ray confirmed that Carlos’s arm was in fact broken and he left the hospital with a cast on.
“You hungry? How about we stop for something before I take you home?” Luke asks as they climb back into the car and Luke helps Carlos with his seat belt again to save him from struggling with only one hand. They decide on burgers and get take-out, planning to eat it back at the Molina house while they wait for Julie and Ray to get home. 
They pull up outside the house, Luke takes the food and grabs Carlos’s bag out of the trunk, meeting him at the front door which he’s already unlocked. Luke places Carlos’s sports bag down by the front door then the two boys head straight through to the kitchen to unpack the food. Luke notices that Carlos had disappeared while he was putting the food on plates but he comes back in just as he’s putting the food on the table and Luke see’s he’s got his tablet with him.
“You don’t mind if it put this on while we eat do you?” he asks, sitting down and opening up the youtube app. Luke shakes his head as he takes a bite out of his burger as Carlos props the tablet up in the middle of the table where they both can see it and he presses play on the video. From what Luke can tell it’s a ghost hunting video, he shouldn’t be surprised really Julie has told him about Carlos’s latest obsession with ghosts and he knows that he had even roped Reggie in to help him search the house for ghosts after band practice a couple of weeks ago. Luke’s not sure he believes in the existence of ghosts and he’s certain that all the tricks that they pull off in shows like these are faked but despite this he finds his attention glued to the small screen and Carlos definitely notices.
“Didn’t know you were a believer too” he teases as he stuffs a couple of fries into his mouth.
“I’m not, I'm just trying to work out how they’re doing it” Luke answers truthfully because one video is not going to change his mind.
“It’s ghosts.They’re not doing anything” he proclaims before gesturing to the person on screen and he sounds so certain that Luke doesn’t try to argue just gives him an amused look. “Okay I’ll make a believer out of you just watch this one” he announces bringing up another video.
They hear the front door go and Luke looks at the time it’s almost four, they’re still sitting at the table watching ghost videos even though they had finished eating a while ago and Luke’s still not convinced about the whole ghost thing but he has to admit the videos are pretty entertaining. Ray comes into view shortly afterwards and he seems shocked to see Luke there but he doesn’t say anything until he sees Carlos’s arm.
“Carlos” Ray says, walking over to them and gesturing to the cast on his arm.
“Oh it’s broken” Carlos states looking up at his dad but Ray gives him an unamused look and Carlos sighs before speaking “I fell at baseball this morning and landed funny. I tried calling you but there was no answer and I know Julie was out with Flynn all day and wouldn’t be able to come for me so I rang Luke. He took me to the hospital and then stayed with me all afternoon” he explains. Ray reaches into his pockets searching for his phone but can’t seem to find it then he looks up seeming to remember where it is going out into the hall and returning with the phone in hand.
“I’m sorry Carlos I must have left it on the side when I was looking for my keys this morning” he admits before turning to face Luke a smile on his face “Thank you Luke for looking after him” 
“It’s no problem really,” Luke shrugs “but I better be going, my mom will be wondering where I am.” He smiles getting up from the chair, Ray nods walking him to the door and thanking him again for looking after Carlos as Luke gets into his car.
“So I heard you had an interesting day” Julie smiles when she calls Luke later on that night and Luke agrees “Carlos had fun though despite everything” she tells him and he can’t help but smile.
“How’s his arm?” Luke asks
“It’s a little bit sore but it’s not hurting as much now that he’s taken some pain killers” Julie responds before she starts giggling slightly “You know I asked him why he didn’t try ringing Tia and you should have seen the look on his face” 
“I can imagine” Luke laughs along with her, he had only met Julie’s aunt a couple of times but from what he’d seen she did tend to go a bit over the top with things.
“He said he’d rather spend the day with you” she says becoming serious “I think he sees you as a brother rather than just his sisters boyfriend, especially after today” she adds and Luke can’t help the warm feeling that washes over him, he didn’t have any siblings himself although he would’ve liked a brother to play with when he was growing up but then he got Alex and Reggie when he started school and they became his brothers. Now here he was with Carlos and he couldn’t help but smile. Julie saw but she didn’t tease him for it just started telling him about how her and Flynn almost got kicked out of a store while they were out, which Luke found hilarious.

I gotchu bb 😘 this one’s got some ZANG to it
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was just some harmless flirting. At least, to you it was. Maybe even to the bartender polishing a freshly cleaned shot glass. She’s gotta be used to seeing these kinds of interactions day in and day out, whether she wanted to overhear too much or not. But to Carlos, who was quietly nursing a glass of beer in an empty booth, it became more and more of an objectionable offense the longer he watched you and one of the men he worked with getting along just a little too well. And he swore that he knew what you were doing. Or that you knew what you were doing. To him.
Though you were casually leaning back in your seat at the bar, legs crossed and body facing the man you were chatting with about non-work related matters, he always caught those little glances you would toss his way to peck at. You knew he was watching. He doesn’t have to mull about whether the way you tilt your head when you would speak to show off the skin of your neck is blatant or purely accidental. Because with you and with him, it’s never an accident.
The warm light hanging above the counter brings a shine to your eyes when you laugh at something his co-worker says, playfully giving his arm a light nudge. Carlos starts to drink a little more briskly. His glass was now half empty, and he squinted from across the bar as you leaned in close to whisper something in that man’s ear. You didn’t even cup your hand over your mouth to hide what you were saying. You might as well have been whispering to everyone in the building who could listen. Your eyes flicker in Carlos’s direction and he almost chokes on his lukewarm beer, feels it threaten to creep up into his nose.
You laugh again and so does the man this time. Carlos somehow finds just enough restraint in him so he doesn’t slam the bottom of the clear glass onto the table, lest it shatter and bring unwanted attention. Though he does place it with a little more of a heated oomph. He wipes his mouth with his forearm and strides over to the bar, boots thumping against the wood with purpose. He doesn’t even acknowledge your new friend when he gets close enough.
“Can I talk to you for a minute?” He mumbles in your ear, sounding more worked up than he looked.
You finish your drink and smile at him like you don’t know what’s about to happen. “Sure!” You give a friendly touch to his co-worker’s wrist, still smiling. “It was lovely chatting with you. See you around, Paul!”
Paul returns the sentiment and you slip out of your seat to follow Carlos toward the back exit. Even in the chill of the night, your skin feels deceptively hot beneath the silky material of your blouse. Maybe it’s the cocktail. Maybe it’s the anticipation. He checks every open corner and nook in the dimly lit alley beside the small tavern, one of his many habits, and once he determines that the two of you are completely alone he closes the space between the both of you.
“So, you wanna tell me what the hell that was all about?”
You have to crane your neck slightly to take a good look at his face and you’re able to verify that he’s not necessarily mad, but he’s not exactly pleased.
“I’m not sure what you mean.” You answer with a coy grin. He shakes his head.
“Oh no, don’t you start playin’ dumb now. You know what I mean.”
“I was just having a nice, cordial chat with a new friend. That’s all.” You say with a shrug. He doesn’t feel like buying it just yet.
“Yeah? You always get that cozy with every new friend you make?”
“Sounds like someone’s a little jealous.”
He actually laughs at that. His eyes leave your face and find a more interesting spot on the brick wall behind you. Someone carved the words, call me! along with a line of dashes and numbers. Someone else responded with their own carving that read, AS IF.
“Did you know that Paul used to work in Umbrella’s tourism firm, the Paraguas Line Company?” You tip your head to try and gain his attention again, but he wouldn’t let you have it. He was looking at a slew of graffiti instead.
“He’s taken people everywhere. Europe, Africa, South America. He’s seen it all. He’s done it all. From drinkin’ out of coconuts on soft white beaches and splashin’ around in oceans bluer than curacao liqueur, to munchin’ on a fresh quiche for breakfast outside of a little cafe in The Côte d'Azur and harvesting Sorento lemons in October.”
He’s tapping his foot now, still refusing to look at you even though you also catch him stealing his own glances. You notice that those quick peeks seem to get snagged on your lips every time. This makes you grin and he gets stuck in your teeth, too.
“You wanna know somethin’ else about Paul?”
The muscles in his jaw visibly tense just a bit underneath all of that dark scruff and he puffs out a breath he didn’t realize he’d been holding.
“Lemme guess, he’s got a shinier pension plan? A timeshare in the Bahamas? Any other fantastic fringe benefits I’m forgetting? Uhh... Oh! Does he have dental? I bet he has great dental.”
You expected this amount of snark for how much you rattled him throughout the night. It was oozing out of him like when you take a scraper across a heavy slab of honeycomb. Seeing him get so riled up was more blood-pumping than taking down a horde of the undead.
You boldly take a step closer to him, carefully pressing your chest against his. You lean up on your toes and whisper in his ear.
“His wife is a researcher at the Alexander Institute of Biotechnology in Chicago.”
Carlos sighs through his nose and he slowly brings his arms up to place his hands on either side of your head against the wall behind you. His forehead is pressed against your collarbone.
Got ‘em.
“He says that she’s wonderful at what she does. The best and brightest out of everyone there. Oh! And they actually met while Paul was guiding a cruise across the Mediterranean coast, and at that very same lemon grove in Sorento. Isn’t that romanti-”
His lips are rough and demanding when they find yours, catching your breath and discarding any more trivial things to make room for his tongue. You do your best not to smile into the kiss, you really do. You try to match his frustrated tempo with a few placating licks of your own. But he’s just so damn cute when he’s embarrassed. His teeth give your bottom lip a stern pinch before he releases to scowl at you.
“You must think you’re pretty funny, huh? Cute, even.”
You shrugged once more. “Maybe a little. I definitely am cute, though.”
Carlos hummed, giving you ample time to get everything out of your system now before he ended your little game.
“And he does have good dental. His teeth are pretty nice.”
Even through the fabric of your shirt, you can feel the blazing heat coming from his palms as they slide down your arms, your elbows, bringing the blood in your wrists to a simmer.
“Glad you had a good time. Now, I’m sure you know what comes next, don’t you, fox?”
Though he looks to be in better spirits, at the moment, you can’t stop yourself from pressing your lips together to hide your cheeky smile. You take your time as you answer him, walking your fingers up his chest and innocently picking lint off the collar of his shirt.
“Burgers and a shake? I am feeling a little peckish.”
He shakes his head, pulling you even closer.
“Another drink to shake off all that embarrassment?”
“You wish.” Your arms are coiled around his neck now.
“Hmm... I dunno, Corporal. Why don’t you tell me?”
The hands that had been burning a steady path down your waist come to a halt at your hips to snake around for a good grip on your ass and haul you up. The wind is practically knocked out of you and a breathy whimper slips past your lips. He’s got you trapped between, literally, a rock and a hard place, with the hem of your skirt slipping up and over your waist.
He discovers then that you weren’t wearing anything else underneath. That has him practically panting on the spot.
You were enraptured by the intensely potent look in his eyes that held you just as tightly, that bruised you as lovingly as his hands did to your supple body.
“I’m gonna fuck you so hard that you forget you ever even met that asshole.” He growled with a greedy sort of spark that you’d never heard before.
“Don’t be mean. That asshole’s name is Paul.” His eyes roll at your lighthearted chiding, but soon he’s huffing abruptly against your chest when he feels your hand dip past his pants to rub his erection through his boxers. The chill of your fingers has him jolting and bucking into your touch.
You completely undo his belt and then pop the silver button on his jeans, teasing his lips with a quick swipe of your tongue as you leisurely pull down the zipper.
“And I don’t care what you do,” He helps you push his pants and boxers out of the way, releasing his aching cock to the night air. He lowers you down just a bit, just enough to have you lined up perfectly. He adjusts so your knees are slung over his arms. Carlos swallows hard, breathes heavily against your lips as he eagerly waits for you to say it, chants it in his mind.
Say it. Say it, please. It’s almost too much! Please say it!
“Just fuck me, Carlos.”

Memorial Day Weekend.
You know what Memorial Day Weekend means: It means paying respects and remembering the fallen soldiers that fight for your freedom, and country. Also means Barry is throwing a barbecue! So, here’s my headcanon for something fluffy and silly, since I did post some angsty shit a few days ago. 
Barry: He is the man of the hour! He has been preparing his house for a barbecue weekend! I’d like to imagine Barry being that sort of fatherly/uncle figure that has a nice house, pool, front and backyard that has soft grass. Ultimate picturesque American Norman Rockwell. 
While it’s not specific, and you’re not required to bring anything. Barry won’t turn away any side dishes, or general food item that someone may bring. 
Leon and Claire are first to show up at Barry’s. They bring a fruit salad, and some brownies. Leon is trying to show utmost respect for Barry, and still exuding that sense of professional rookie. Claire on the meantime is ready to have a drink, and laugh! 
Sherry is with Leon and Claire when they go. And my god... that kid wouldn’t shut up about swimming. She’s been wearing her swimsuit under her clothes for hours, and all she wants to do is jump in that pool. It’s almost impossible controlling that child the moment they get to Barry’s house. Claire has to remind her to put sunscreen on, and it nearly causes a fight when she stops Sherry and is greasing up her face! 
Rebecca shows up and she has a vegetable tray, and modest healthy food. She’s also partially prepared to deal with bloody noses, scrapes, bruises, things that come from big large people rough housing. (Because Chris and Carlos will be in the same area. It’s bound to happen.) She takes over kitchen duty helping out Barry. She’s seeing to drinks, making sure that there is plenty of water, cups, napkins, plates etc. Barry is outside, so why not be inside greeting everyone! 
Chris shows up. He’s trying his best to get out of “work mode”. But, it’s proving harder than he thought. He’s friendly, he’s cordiale. But our man Chris also has a lot of internal anxieties. I feel people forget that Chris is dealing similar trauma that Jill has endured. He was there in the Arklay Mountains as well with the mansion. He saw and dealt with similar events. Now, he has the knowledge and fear that his own little sister dealt with similar as he did. Something that no big brother wants to know about. Let alone that he wasn’t there to protect her. 
So Chris is apprehensive. He’s a bit rigid, and he’s keeping an eye on all doors, windows, any point of entry when he’s inside. When he’s outside, he’s at an area where he can keep an eye on both the gates into the backyard, the pool, and doors that lead into the house. 
It’s emotional when Chris and Claire get to see each other. While they have seen each other after the events of Raccoon City, it doesn’t stop the tears and sniffing from seeing the other is still alive. There is laughing, there is hugging, there is also the shit given back and forth to the other. 
So, for Jill. She’s nervous about attending the barbecue. Crowds, even if friends are always anxiety ridden. She’s worried people will look at her like she’s some kind of monster. She doesn’t want to have anyone’s pity, or sympathies. If she could be invisible and not noticed she’d much rather have that. 
Carlos however, is adamant that they have to go. Granted, his anxieties are towards Jill’s former comrades, and friends reception of him. But, he knows that Jill HAS TO interact and be with those that care about her. Closing herself off from her friends will not help in any improvement mentally, or emotionally for her. While he’s anxious about how she’ll react, and how he’ll be received, he takes them to the barbecue. 
Carlos also is the one that makes some of his favorite dishes from his country. Carlos can cook! Man will put some meat on your bones. His love language is also with his cooking. So, you best expect what he brings is FUCKING DELICIOUS! 
Jill’s rigid, and similar to Chris, she’s anxious. She has a small tight smile, she’s reserved, she’s trying to pretend to be normal. 
Claire’s squeal makes Jill jump! As does the partially liqured up red-head’s adamant surprise hug attack! 
Barry jokes, and he hugs Jill. He’s the first to really notice that she’s dealing with some shit. That’s where he gives her a rum and coke. Little stronger than some beer, something to loosen her nerves. He tells her too that he understands. Take some time. It’s safe. Nothing is going to happen. They are all there with her. 
Chris and Jill have an awkward moment reunion. They’ve been through so much together as well, just as Jill has with Carlos. They do have a silent moment where the emotions are palpable. They end up embracing, and there are silent tears. 
Carlos is trying not to feel awkward, but he does. He’s not so much “threatened” by Chris. But hey both have high tensions around the other. Carlos being former Umbrella, and Chris having the same distaste to Umbrella that Jill has. Naturally Chris doesn’t trust Carlos. Carlos just wants him to mind his own business! But for this... he can’t try to enforce that. 
After that moment of tense interaction, and silent emotions expressed between Chris and Jill. Things begin to lighten up, and dare say it... people start having fun! 
Leon is pushed into the pool. 
There is an arm wrestling contest. Barry beats Leon. Granted, Leon did come close. But! Old man strength prevails. 
Carlos and Chris are in a stalemate that Rebecca breaks up. 
There is a game of capture the flag. 
Claire and Jill get giggly with each other when they keep drinking. 
Everyone eats hotdogs, grilled chicken, burgers- tasty all around food that you’d expect to have at a barbecue. It’s not till they try what Carlos brought that everyone’s minds are blown! 
Carlos is oddly sheepish, and blushes at the praise he gets... Chris even compliments him. Those two have an awkward nod off. 
Barry gets the firepit going, and people start to gather around it, sitting and talking, joking, telling stories etc. 
Sherry has swam to her heart’s content, but now she’s tired and wrapped in a towel and in Leon’s lap, mumbling how she’s tired. All while Dad-Leon has frizzy hair, and damp clothes from being pushed in the pool. 
Claire and Jill are drunk, and starting to show they are done. 
It’s around 10:30-11pm that they call it a successful barbecue. 
In the end, everyone had absolute blast, and they all left with high spirits. Chris and Carlos managed to get along, and Barry waves them off. 
Leon has to carry Sherry to the car, and Chris helps get his sister into the jeep. She is muttering, and arguing with her brother all the while! She’s a tough badass woman, she doesn’t need his help. He counters back she’s drunk, and she needs to get some sleep... this goes on for awhile. 
Jill can’t walk. She doesn’t trust her knees with how drunk she is. She’s too tired emotionally and mentally from the anxiety of just going to the barbecue. So, Carlos has to carry her out to their car. 
Barry watches from his porch, smiling so proud to watch his “kids” leave to go home.

You’re So Fine, You Blow My Mind (Part 2)
Tourney player Jay is smitten with the new cheerleader, and Evie and Mal help get them together.
Click here for Part 1: Jay
Part 2: Mal
Evil, there’s so much about tourney that Mal just can’t stand.
First off, the uniforms? They make sense to wear during games, kind of, but could they look anymore pansy-ish? Shiny blue and gold jerseys and shorts in silky soft materials? Not her idea of threatening or intimidating. These Auradonians make everything look so overdressed and...fancy.
And the games? With people watching and chanting stupid rhymes about defense and winning, with their faces painted blue and gold? It’s embarassing that anyone would want to act like that, especially to cheer on a fight over a ball. It would actually be similar to watching fights break out on the isle, if people here weren’t so weird about dressing up and singing for it.
For those reasons, and a few more, it took A LOT of convincing from Jay to get Mal to try out for tourney. But he won her over, of course. Jay always knew how to get through to Mal. 
Not that she’d ever admit to that.
But at the end of the day, how could she turn down the opportunity to take her aggression out on a few Auradonian boys on the tourney field? 
Especially Chad. Damn, Jay really knew her weaknesses.
But she’s a good friend too, so she’s VERY familiar with Jay’s weaknesses. And right now, his biggest weakness is ruining her practice and annoying the hell out of her.
She’s referring, of course, to the brain in his pants.
And that brain has completely taken over Jay today. Just one look at the new cheerleader boy, and her new best friend and teammate has been reduced to a clumsy, awkward, stuttering mess. Drills were a disaster, every play they ran was a complete failure, and Mal’s limping off the field now that Jay managed to trip her and knock them both into the ground during laps. 
She hisses quietly as she brushes the dirt off the scrape on her knee, scowling at Jay, who simply shrugs at her and jogs towards the locker rooms, stumbling again on the way when he catches another glimpse of the freckled cheerleader in his peripheral vision.
Ok, fuck this shit. Mal’s fixing the problem, RIGHT NOW.
“Babe!” She calls to Evie as she waves, sprinting over to the pretty bluenette cheerleader.
Evie turns with a bright smile, already leaning forward to meet her girlfriend in a sweet kiss.
“You were fantastic out there today, Mals. The star of practice,” she raves, giving her a wink.
Mal loses her train of thought for a second, smiling and blushing furiously at the compliment.
“Thanks, Eves. I thought it went well today.” Her face turns serious as she remembers her problem. “For me at least. I don’t know if you saw, but someone had a really off day today.”
Evie purses her lips with a slight nod. “Jay? The poor guy, he couldn’t catch a break today. I guess everyone has a day that goes all wrong, right?”
“Sure, that can happen,” Mal surmises with a tilt of her head. “But in this case, it wasn’t just a bad day. Jay’s, problem, has a face. A pretty one.”
Evie giggles, shaking her head. “Of course. When doesn’t it? Who’s the goof all twitterpated for now?”
Mal spins on her heel, crossing her arms as she eyes the boy, now chatting with Jane, arms gesturing wildly in a passionate discussion. She hears words like ‘cosine’ and ‘tangent’ and has to chuckle. Her bestie’s fallen for a hot little nerd.
“Your new guy over there has my best friend tripping over his own feet. We need to do him a favor and introduce them. I don’t think he’ll manage this time without us. The guy’s a little hopeless right now.”
Evie’s eyes light up when she sees who Mal’s talking about. “You mean Carlos?!” She squeals and jumps happily, clapping her hands. “He’s ADORABLE, and the sweetest thing! Oh, he’s perfect for Jay!”
Mal smirks and drops her hands to her hips. Her girlfriend will forever love playing matchmaker.
“Good, but we’ll need to be there to help loverboy. I have a feeling this won’t go smoothly without us. But don’t worry, I have a plan,” Mal adds with a calculated grin.
-----
“So, why do you want to eat lunch in the courtyard today? I thought you liked the middle garden cause it’s less crowded.” Jay follows Mal, grabbing an apple on  their way out of the cafeteria with their trays.
“What, is it so wrong to want a change of scenery one day? I’m not a creature of habit, Jay. I can be spontaneous.”
“Ok,” He chuckles, shining the apple against his vest. “Except you can’t.”
Mal glares at him but keeps walking. 
“Evie’s already saved us a table,” she adds as they turn the corner. She smiles when she spots the girl at the table right in front of them. “And” She nods her head, gesturing for Jay to look. “She brought a friend to join us.”
Jay’s about to take a bite out of the apple, but freezes when he looks up ahead. Evie’s at the table with...his freckled cheerleader boy. He stands there, mouth agape, refusing to move.
Mal rolls her eyes and grabs at his arm, pulling him along. He finally stumbles into step with her up to the table.
Evie and the boy both look up, smiling. Mal smiles back and drops herself in the seat across from Evie, leaving Jay in front of his crush. He quirks a smile and slowly plops himself down, catching himself when he almost drops the apple in his hand. He swings back up quickly with an awkward chuckle.
“Mal! Jay!” Evie sings sweetly. She reaches for the boy’s hand on the table and squeezes it gently. “I’d like you to meet Carlos! He just transferred here last week. And he’s our newest cheerleader.” She comments with a wide smile, which Carlos returns.
“Hi! It’s nice to meet you. Both of you,” he says cheerfully, offering a tiny wave.
“Carlos! I saw you at practice yesterday, you’ve got some pretty sweet moves,” Mal comments.
Carlos’ smile widens at Mal’s praise, and a light pink flush spreads quickly across his cheeks, starkly brightening his face against the pale skin and freckles. 
He’s cute. Really cute. Mal can definitely see why Jay’s so smitten.
“Thanks, Mal. I really love dancing. It was super exciting to make the squad. Evie’s put together some great routines.” He leans into Evie as she smiles and throws an arm around his shoulders for a side hug.
“And you’ve had some great ideas already, Carlos! I can’t wait to see what we can do together.”
Jay clears his throat, grabbing everyone’s attention. Mal sees his hand under the table between them, clenched tightly and at his side.
“Y-Yeah, Carlos.” He says weakly, curling his lips into a half-smile. “I saw you too. You’re...really good.”
Carlos spins back to meet Jay’s eyes with a warm smile, cheeks still flushed and adorable.
“Thanks, Jay.”
Mal bites back a laugh, shaking her head at Jay. He’s so shaky and nervous, totally not the suave flirt she’s used to seeing. And he’s joining late to the conversation and being SO awkward.
He’s so fucked for this kid. It’s time to step in and help.
“So, Carlos. Are you just new to our school, or new to Auradon City too?”
“Both!” He answers brightly, turning to Mal. “We lived in Camelot Heights before, but Roger and Anita thought it would be better for me here. Auradon Prep is known for their Math and Science programs.”
Mal quirks a brow. That explains his excited math chatter with Jane earlier. She peeks at Jay, who’s still listening intently to Carlos, resting his head in his hands with a stupid grin on his face. Obviously the nerd vibe hasn’t phased him at all.
“That’s great! Math and Science aren’t really my thing, but they have a lot of options here to keep you happy if you’re into that stuff.”
She leans in a little, offering a tiny smille. “But have you had any time to explore the city? There’s a lot of great restaurants and shops and stuff.”
Carlos shakes his head, waving his hand around in a circle. “This place is so big, and between tryouts, getting my schedule and taking the tour, I’ve barely even had time to get settled in my room.”
“Well! That’s got to change.” Mal pops back upright. “Evie and I are obsessed with the Auradon City Grille. They have the best burgers around.” Evie’s eyes widen as she nods excitedly at Carlos.
“Yes! And then we always hit up Mrs.Pott’s after for coffee or tea and some of her cupcakes. They’re my favorite,” she gushes, clasping her hands gleefully.
“Ooooh. That sounds great!” Carlos’ eyes light up with excitement. “Do they have chocolate cupcakes? I’m a sucker for chocolate.”
“Yes!” Mal jumps in. “You have to try it.”
Carlos nods eagerly. “I’m in! That sounds like fun! When are we going?”
Before Evie can respond, Mal reaches out to clasp her hand. She smiles knowingly, and Evie closes her mouth, perking her eyebrows in silent agreement.
“Actually, Evie and I are going to be pretty busy this week. I’m bombing Chemistry at the moment, so she’s going to help me study.”
“Oh, ok.” Carlos’ face drops a little in disappointment.
“But!” Mal claps Jay on the shoulder. “Jay here should be free.”
Jay chokes on his water, sputtering as he swallows his mouthful. He looks at Carlos, who’s staring back, and looking, hopeful.
“Uh, yeah. Yeah, I’m free.” Jay swallows loudly. “D-do you wanna go t-t-tomorrow night?”
Carlos smiles full and wide, showing a mouth of gleaming white, perfect teeth.
“Yeah. It’s a date.”

Cecilos #4?
Cecil doesn't date often. He doesn't remember the last time he went on a real date. He is hesitant to even download grindr but did so anyway. 
 He never expected to get a match, let alone a date. He almost didn't go but Earl had managed to talk him into it. 
Now, Cecil stands in front of the long mirror in his bedroom. It's been so long that Cecil had no idea how to dress. He finally settled on a cream colored button up and a pair of slacks. He fiddles with the collar of the shirt, wondering if it wasn't too little. His thoughts were interrupted by a quiet chime of his phone. No time to back out now. Carlos is here. Maybe he could fake being sick? 
Cecil chews his bottom lip as he answers the door. He can feel the excuse at the tip of his tongue but he was not ready for what greeted him. 
Cecil is greeted by a delicate bouquet of yellow and purple flowers.  "Oh." He says softly. He takes the flowers with a soft expression. He looks up and his breath stops. The man standing there is beautiful. He had gorgeous eyes and hair that looked soft enough that Cecil wanted to bury his fingers in it. Cecil stared at him for several minutes before Carlos broke the silence. 
"You're Cecil right? Cause this would be really embarrassing if I showed up at the wrong house on the first date."
Cecil finds his voice and manages to stop staring. "First date? You seem so sure there will be another." 
"I'm hoping so. You're pretty cute." 
Cecil buries his face in the flowers to hide the growing blush. "I'll be right back. Put these in water." He squeaks. He hurries into the house, leaving Carlos on the doorstep. He puts the flowers in a simple vase on the table before returning to the door after grabbing his jacket and house keys. "I'm ready." 
"Oh good. Shall we?"
Cecil nods and pulls the door shut, locking it. He then follows Carlos to his car. A small eco friendly hybrid. Cute. "I'm sorry for being so awkward. I don't date often."
"Really? A pretty face like yours?"
Cecil shifts a bit, uncomfortable. Just a pretty face. He had been told repeatedly. "My son is my first priority."
"You have a son?" Carlos asks, glancing at him. It wasn't accusing or negative. Instead he sounded curious. 
"Yes. He's eleven." Cecil says, a bit defensively. "I'm sorry if that's an issue with you."
"No. No it's not an issue. I just… I teach the fifth grade." Carlos explains. "So I love kids. They're brighter than most people give them credit."
Cecil feels himself relax a little. "That's true." 
"So what do you do?"
"I'm sorry?"
"For work I mean." Carlos pulls into the parking lot of Benson's, a small local diner.
"Oh!" Cecil laughs softly. "I run a bookstore."
"That's really cool. I love books." Carlos smiles. 
"I'd hope so or you'd be a sucky teacher." Cecil climbs out and joins Carlos on the sidewalk. 
"Is that so?"
"Well aren't books a big part of your job? I get a lot of teachers in the shop." Cecil follows Carlos into the diner. 
"Are any of them as cute as I am?"
"Wouldn't you like to know?" Cecil snickers as he follows the hostess to their table. 
"Maybe I would." Carlos retorts as he sits down and picks up a menu. 
"Maybe you could find out if you bother to come in."
"Is that an invitation or a challenge?"
"Take it how you will." Cecil looks up at the waitress and orders a coke while Carlos orders a sweet tea. "But the offer stands." He peers over the top of the menu. He then closes it and folds his hands, knowing what he wanted already. 
"I might just take you up on that."
"You'd better." Cecil folds the menu. "I wouldn't mind a little after hours book club." He gives a small smirk. 
"I wouldn't mind showing you my comprehension techniques." Carlos retorts with a grin. 
"I doubt you have something I haven't seen before." Cecil looks up as the waitress brings back their drinks.
"What can I get started for you?" She asks, giving Cecil a sweet smile.
"I'll have the house special. But with no pickles. Please."
"Alright." She picks up his menu. She then turns to Carlos and her entire body language changes. She bites her bottom lip and bats her eyelashes, pushing her chest out. 
Cecil finds it ridiculous but he doesn't get out often so maybe this is normal.
"And for you sugar?"
Carlos glances at Cecil with an expression that says 'is this woman okay?'. "I'll have the same but keep the pickles."
"Anything for you honey. Together or separate?" She asks, looking up from her small notepad. She asks "separate" in a hopeful tone.
Carlos hums and gazes at Cecil for a moment before reaching over and taking his hand. "Together. It's our anniversary. We had our first date here." 
Cecil sits in stunned silence with a lightly flushed face but the waitress seemed to get the hint and walked away. 
Carlos finally lets go when the waitress is out of sight. "Sorry. I hate when that happens. I hope I didn't make you uncomfortable- uh….Cecil? You okay?"
Cecil blinks rapidly for a few seconds before pulling his hand back and putting it in his lap. "I'm sorry. Like I said, I don't date. The last date I went on was with my ex wife….six years ago."
"Ex wife?" 
Cecil shifts and looks away. "I...don't really know you well enough to talk about that." He looks back. "Yet."
"Yet?" Carlos smiles. 
"Yet." Cecil feels himself relax. "It wasn't a good marriage so it was hard to get back into the dating scene."
"Was I what you were expecting?" Carlos props his chin on his palm. 
"Well….you're a bit shorter than I imagined." Cecil teases, biting his slightly chapped bottom lip.
"Hey!" Carlos kicked him lightly. "Not all of us can have legs like a Mantodea."
"A...excuse me? I really can't tell if you just insulted me or not."
Carlos chuckles, a deep warm sound. "A mantis." 
"A mantis?"
"Mhm." Carlos brushes his leg against Cecil's knees, sending a visible shiver to the taller man. "So can I ask you something kind of personal?"
Cecil folds his hands on the table. "As long as it isn't about my ex wife, go ahead."
"That's a very broad category."
"I'm a fairly open person. And that wasn't a question."
Carlos laughs and nods. "You got me there. My question is…. Why me? Why'd you accept my date?"
"Would you believe you're the only one I matched with?"
Carlos snorts and shakes his head. "Not by a long shot."
"Fair enough. How about the only one I matched with that wasn't looking for a one night stand?"
"Now that I do believe."
"I'm not….opposed to sex but I've only ever had sex with women and never really enjoyed it."
"So why marry a woman- I get relationships shouldn't rely on sex but….why?"
"Where I come from, we're pushed from a young age to marry good and have kids. I absolutely love my son. He's the best thing in my life but I'm glad I can accept myself for who I am now."
"Did you love your wife?"
"I've already told you-"
"Right. Don't talk about your wife. Sorry." Carlos puts his hands up.
Cecil sighs softly and looks up as the waitress returns. She gives Cecil a sour look but gives Carlos a sweet smile. 
"Call if you need anything sugar."
Cecil watches her go before, as a habit, takes the top bun off of his burger. "I got pickles." He sighs, picking them off. 
"Well pickles are like virginity. If you don't want yours, I'll take it." Carlos grins.
Cecil freezes and flushes again. "C-carlos."
"Ah." Carlos squeaks. "Sorry."  
Cecil offers him the pickles, covering his mouth to hide a giggle. "I'm afraid I can only offer you one at the moment as we are in public."
"Is that so?" Carlos smirks and accepts the pickles, keeping a hold of Cecil's hand for a moment, kissing the knuckles. 
"I'm afraid you'll have to wait."
"I'm patient." Carlos brushes against Cecil's leg again. 
The rest of dinner went smoothly. Cecil finds himself enjoying Carlos's company. Everytime the waitress came by to flirt with Carlos under the guise of checking on them, Carlos would reach under the table, grasping Cecil's knee and stroking it with his thumb. 
At the end of the night, as Carlos expected, the waitress had written her number on the check so when they stand, Carlos pulls Cecil close and kisses his temple. 
Now they were sitting in the driveway. Cecil bites his bottom lip. "Walk me to the door?"
"Of course." Carlos smiles and turns the car off before they get out. 
Once on the porch, Cecil turns. "I had a really nice time tonight."
"There's only one thing left to do and tonight will have been perfect."
"Oh? And what's that?"
"A good night kiss." Carlos puts a hand on Cecil's face and leans forward, kissing him. 
Cecil is hesitant at first but when Carlos starts to pull away, he puts his arms around the shorter man's neck. That seemed to tip the scale and Carlos pulled Cecil closer to him before pressing him back against the wall of the house. Cecil makes a soft noise and tangles his fingers in Carlos's hair. Cecil spreads his legs a little when Carlos presses his knee up between them. 
Cecil is a bit lost in the moment that when the door opens, he nearly falls. 
"Dad? Why are you ringing the doorbell so much? Did you forget your key-"
Cecil turns his head, and feels himself flush but at the same time go pale. "M-Michael!"
Michael wasn't looking at him though. "Mr. Mendez?"
Cecil feels Carlos step back. 
"Michael?" Carlos asks, clearly as confused as Cecil. 
"You know each other?" Cecil asks, fixing his clothes. 
"He's my teacher!" Michael exclaims at the same time that Carlos says "I'm his teacher."

My reactions+summaries for SPN S5-15 PT.3:
Supernatural Episodes (that were memorable to me):
Currently: S15E20
[Disclaimer: these were written as I was watching each episode for the first time. It’s literally my brain vomit. Let it be known that I watched the series from season 1 but only around season 5 it occured to me that I might want to remember some episodes, so this was created. I am a pretty big destiel shipper, but it only shows here when I absolutely can’t contain myself. You can enjoy my reactions without shipping them. HAVE AT IT]

The Gorgon is hitting on Cas. Wait till Dean hears about that. Cas has been paralyzed. Cas is worried about Dean. That's strike 2. Another moment of Cas being worried and someone is about to die.

Michael is out. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK. JACK CALLED HIMSELF A WINCHESTER OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. Jack got his wings back!
S14E15: Jack is playing with his snake. Cas is worried about Jack. Dean is eating. Cas and Sam go on a case together [Poor Misha. Jared must've tortured him]. Cas with his pop culture references. The only thing good about episode 13 aside from some closure for the boys is that Cas lost his knowledge of pop culture. Cas sometimes looks at the Saturday Evening Post when Sam and Dean are asleep. They're very soothing. Sam and Cas walked into a town that seems stuck in the late ‘70s. Even Cas thinks it's weird. Sam looks happy drinking a milkshake. Cas pretends to drink cuz he doesn't eat. Cas has no social skills. Jack is trying to feed the snake. Dean likes bacon. Some woman checked Cas out. Cas reads a series of love letters between the victim and a milkshake serving a young woman. Cas is so done with people hitting on him. How Cas describes Sam "I'm looking for my partner. Tall man. Hair? He has beautiful hair." FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK. SAM BECAME A PART OF THE WEIRD TOWN FUCK FUCK FUCK. HE'S WEARING GLASSES THIS IS FUCKING WEIRD. CAS IS SO SCARED AND CONFUSED. SOMEONE SAVE HIM AND SAM. Dean is terrified of the snake. Cas is angry.

S14E17: There was supposed to be a family game night. Cas is meeting up with Anael [The fact that this is Daneel and Misha on the same set is amazing]. Nick is back and off his rocket. Anael and Cas discuss God. Jack is going dark side. Woops. Jack sweetheart you're worrying me. Jack what did you do. Jack?
S14E18: Jack what did you do to Mary. What did you do. This is very scary. Oh wait he KILLED HER. WOW. OKAY. HOW THE HELL DO YOU FIX THAT SHIT. DEAN WILL NEVER FORGIVE HIM. SAM TOO. DEAN MIGHT TRY TO KILL HIM BUT THEN SAM WILL STOP HIM AND TELL JACK TO NEVER COME BACK AND CAS WOULD BE SO TORN BECAUSE HE PROMISED TO PROTECT JACK BUT HE KILLED MARY AND WOW THE WRITERS REALLY DUG DEEP WITH THIS ONE. Cas is remembering one of his first hunts with Mary. Did Dean just... Did he tell Cas that if Jack did something to Mary he's dead to him? I think he did. Huh. Welp, time to dig a hole in the ground, huddle into a fetus position and cry. Cas is not even mad. We are fine. Nothing is wrong. Oh wow what is this? A guilt trip down memory lane? Why are you hurting us by showing us all the nice missing moments between Mary and the rest? Is this fun for you you sadistic fucks? Jack needs a snickers. Mary is dead. Wow. Sam just stopped Cas from walking over to Dean. Wow.
S14E19: Dean gives a beautiful speech. Bobby is back. Cas is still protective of Cas. There's a lot of awkward silences between Dean and Cas. Made-up Lucifer is a dick. What do you mean Cas doesn't love Jack um hello? He gave away his chance at happiness for Jack. Fuck you Made-up Lucifer. Oh no. Dean is crying alone. Naomi Bitch Replacement is messing with Jack's head. Fuck her. A pillar of salt? Really?. Okay so Soulless Jack is horrible. I love him so much but he was already like a toddler playing with a bazooka. Now he's like a SADISTIC toddler playing with a bazooka with no soul. It really feels like Cas is the only one left with a sense of rationality. Cas is pissed at Sam and Dean for locking Jack up.
S14E20: So, Jack's pissed. Dean calls Jack a monster and I think why it bothered Castiel so much is because that would mean Castiel is a monster too. Chuck is BACK BABY AND OHHH BOI IS THIS A RIDE. Cas is so done. Dean smashes a guitar. Chuck and Dean yell at each other. Chuck is such a dork. Castiel is so pissed. Jack and Castiel reunite. Sam has a talk with Chuck. Chuck breaks the fourth wall. Dean is here to kill Jack. Cas doesn't want that. Dean and Jack are about to die. Jack is okay with that. Welp CHUCK IS HORRIBLE AND NOPE. DID CHUCK JUST KILL JACK. NO NO. CHUCK'S GONE DARK SIDE. No why is Jack dead. This isn't fair.

Cas is forced to sing a song to praise Lucifer. Shit is going down. Cas and Belphegor did NOT work out. Wait does that mean Cas will get stuck in hell. Oh fuck. Oh crap. This is bad. Why does Cas has to suffer so much? Whyyy. He never wanted anything special. Just to be with Jack, Sam, and Dean. He wanted to do good. Whyyyy. ROWENA NO. NOPE. NOPE. DON'T DO IT.

Thoughts on Descendants 3 as I watch it for the 8th time and pause to look at everybody all the time
- When Ben and Mal are walking out before the proposal, Audrey is slow clapping and it’s hilarious
-Chad seems genuinely happy to see them together but Audrey rains on his parade
-Please look at Chad’s face to the side after Ben gets on his knee his overdramatic gaping mouth is SENDING ME
-Why do they make Belle and the Beast kiss beside each other’s cheeks like a french greeting? For real though they’re Belle and the Beast...they should be kissing in celebration .-.
-Right after the Carlos/Beast chest bump there’s an extra in the background of Bal just having a blast popping bubbles
-Speaking of the bubbles I have no clue where they’re coming from
- Dude in the background when Audrey says ”What is wrong with you people?” bein shady AF to her
-That one girl in the wheelchair that has been in every single movie needs a name cause we all just refer to her as that one girl in the wheelchair lol
-Mal has her own purple fucking limo and she’s not even royalty yet
-Their money is so vibrantly coloured
-Those cards Celia fan out are definitely, well, a fan. They’re all attached- she’s not even holding onto some of them lol
-Mal resting her chin on Ben’s shoulder to watch him and Celia in the limo. soft
-The scenes in the limo make Ben look really big and awkward because they’re all shoved into a small space and he’s in the middle where the smallest person usually goes...but he’s the biggest person XD
-The barrier takes forever to close and there are a ton of people right there, why has no one attempted to just jump through it yet lol
-What if Hades put his hand through the barrier and it just like...cut it off LMFAO now THAT would have been entertaining 
-Hades literally makes himself roll one more time as he’s pushed back. Like there’s no more momentum and you can see he should stop but he makes himself do another somersault and it’s so obvious lol
-I know it’s been said before but the lack of security in the museum is just lazy AF writing. They didn’t even try to make it realistic it’s way too easy to just waltz in and take anything. Apparently the wand is the only thing worthy of an alarm
-Also why is there not even glass around the scepter to even attempt to discourage people from taking it? Even when the museum is OPEN someone could yank it out and start spelling shit up.
-Ben’s phone rings and he hangs it up less than a second after he picked it up- it doesn’t even show him barely looking at it. How on earth did he have time to see a message about the stolen items- let alone the fact it was a phone call ring...not a text ping
- OK WAIT IF UMA IS ON THE LOOSE AND HE TALKED ABOUT BETTER SECURITY SERIOUSLY WHY ON EARTH IS THE MUSEUM SECURITY SO NON EXISTENT??? IN BOTH THE FIRST MOVIE AND THIS ONE THEIR LACK OF SECURITY IS SUCH A GLARINGLY OBVIOUS THING WHY IS IT NON EXISTENT IT MAKES NO SENSE
-Why are the former King and Queen of Auradon and the current reigning King turning to the not yet Queen for all the advice about evil like it’s her responsibility. They don’t even attempt to brainstorm the vast amount of other ideas. And why on earth can’t she just suggest uh...literal guards by the barrier when it opens for them? Like if they paid people on the isle to guard the barrier so other isle people didn’t try to get out it would help a ton. There are so many other solutions other than closing the barrier completely (and then getting rid of it completely??)
-Does anyone else notice that like...50% of Ben’s screen time is him staring in shock/disbelief at things with literally no other expression for entire scenes? Cause I noticed it the first time around
-My favourite outfit in this whole movie for Mal is this light purple dress she has on when talking about closing the barrier for the first time with Ben’s parents and Evie. She is SO GORGEOUS in it. I’m actually not a fan of the leather suit she wears for the rest of the movie cause I don’t feel it fits with her hairstyle- mainly once it starts to go blue
-I just realized Mal’s hair literally goes from pretty much just purple to lots of blue mixed in. I guess it’s cool cause it’s like she gets power from the ember but I honestly prefer her brighter purple hair. My favourite hairstyle was her bangs she looked like an actual goddess in the 2nd movie
-I think everyone was thinking Dude got into Jane’s cake (despite the very neatly cut corner)
-I honestly love Mal’s face when Audrey shows up with the crown and scepter and her whole new gettup like “What on earth is this chick doing”
-I reiterate “what on earth is this chick doing” as Audrey goes to...sniff? the scepter?
-I wAnT tO bE dAnGeRoUS
-Audrey through a cupcake on the ground. So evil
-Honestly I’m sorry but Audrey talking all angsty to the people at Jane’s party is really cringey. Her lines are just...hhhhhhhhh (you mindless little drones in particular just seems weird the way she says it)
-How on earth does Audrey not see Jane get in the lake...she’s literally right there in full view
-OK so not ALL magic doesn’t work on the Isle, according to Celia only evil magic doesn’t work- so yes Maleficent is still a lizard cause Mal’s spell wasn’t an evil one
-Even with her massive platform shoes Mal is so much shorter than Hades she is yelling at him but having to look way up she’s adorable
- Hades “LET’S DANCE” - proceeds to shake a tambourine, slap his butt with it and stick his tongue out. ok then
-Why did I never notice Mal shake the tambourine at him angrily and then throw it lmao
-WHERE IS THE WIND COMING FROM IN THIS SONG (I will touch back on random wind that shouldn’t be there later on too)
-Mal should say thank you for the ember...imo
-”If it gets wet it’s game over” thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat’s what she said
-Mal’s walking away from Haes up those stairs? That booty thicc (only thing I really like about that outfit) 
-Girl has a zipper down her butt. She can unzip her ass cheeks
-I’m glad the jewelry in this movie is no longer plastic like Ben’s ring and his burger king crown
-“You’ll what? Marry them?” OK I am not a big fan of the plot or Audrey’s temper tantrum but  if that isn’t the best fucking burn in this whole franchise then idk what is
-gUYS CELIA IS NOT THE ACTRESS SHE IS SUPPOSE TO BE IN AN ENTIRE MAIN SHOT??? WTF? HOW HAS NO ONE POINTED THIS OUT?? SHE’S A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PERSON WHEN THEY’RE WALKING OUT OF THE GATE TOWARDS THE BARRIER ON THE ISLE AND THEN THE NEXT SHOT IT’S BACK TO THE PROPER ACTRESS. BUT IT’S VERY OBVIOUS
-I AM GAY AS SHIT FOR UMA OK SHE IS ABSOLUTE PEAK AESTHETIC AND I WOULD LET HER CHOKE ME WITH HER BRAIDS 
-I deserve some compensation for my muscles...what does that even mean???
-Are we suppose to know who Hannah is?
-”Says you and that’s suppose to mean someth’n to me?” Ok maybe I’m just a flaming bisexual for Uma but why was that line delivery so smooth
-Audrey is abusing Chad. She threw a glass bowl at him and is literally shoving him around and yelling at him while accusing him of knowing things and not telling her. And it’s played for laughs. Descendants you have a lot of good things that are socially woke but this ain’t it man. Chad may have been a douche but he doesn’t deserve abuse. (rhyme oof)
- Why is Dude advertising that he gives great cuddles? Who is that directed at? Why is that line in there? Alright then
-How is Uma the only one that noticed the massive scratches on the wall and the literal painting slashed in half
-Mkay we get it Audrey you’re evil thanks for the random laugh
-The knight in front of them literally clanged as it moved and it’s RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM how did nobody but Harry see it move. This entire movie is me asking why something happened because honestly so much of it just doesn’t make sense but I still love the movie lmao
-Out numbered 1 to 50? How did this girl graduate lol
-I still say What The Fuck Is Happening every time Mal makes the Knights dance. It’s just the most random, out of the blue thing to do
-Mal literally licks her lip and gives Evie the most sultry look as Evie dips down and is singing the end of Night Falls. I’m not a Mevie shipper but it’s the most bedroom eyes I’ve ever seen
-Evie is an absolute ray of sunshine and deserves all the things
-Harry is genuinely flattered at Evie’s compliment about his accent he starts to smile. Dude acts like a complete player and then gets happy when someone gives him a genuine compliment lol
-Jay and Gil are adorable
-Gil is just adorable on his own
-Doug is in way too comfortable of a position to not have already been on the ground sleeping/resting. Which begs the question of why he was just on the ground sleeping like that
-Doug’s long hair and ponytail and complete lack of style are some of my biggest pet peeves in this movie. He doesn’t just look out of place next to Evie, but next to literally everyone else. He looked pretty good in the last two, why such a drastic change that literally nobody asked for or wanted lol
-I seriously can’t take Evie and Doug seriously in this movie just because of his hair. It’s just so unattractive I’m sorry not sorry
- I do enjoy the sense of urgency and time that the movie has as Mal tries to keep moving. Uma and her being like “just kiss him already” is fun
-They could have shot Audrey looking at them through the scepter in a different way...the way it’s just the same close up shot every time she’s looking at it with her hair blowing in the non-existent wind just adds to how cheesy her whole performance is (not her fault, director and writers fault)
-Mal should have kissed Ben when they reunited. 0 reason not to. She was super worried about him and finally reunited with him and she also LOOKED like she wanted to kiss him. Girl was super into that beard. 
-Leave some room for Jesus lmao 
-I’m just bitter cause the only kiss we get this whole movie is from kinda far away and is short. We’ve also never seen them share a sweet kiss in private- they’re always on display....maybe it’s a kink lol
-Ben and Mal holding hands while trying to sneak around <3
-Sophia’s acting when Evie is upset is on point. This whole scene is one of the only really good ones where everyone is rightfully upset with Mal. 
-Mal has had to sing about her feelings in every movie lmao
-Why...does the dragon look like it has a low frame rate? It looks choppy
-Audrey just, once again, doesn’t look menacing. She’s just like...waving a stick around and making mean faces
-”I owe you an apology” says everyone but...no one actually says “I’m sorry” lol
- Ben is just “aw yiss speak human rights to me baby” at Mal during the engagement party
- Beast: “We can’t do that.” I AGREE
-Taking the barrier down with no screening for the villains is a bad bad bad bad idea but it’s a happy disney universe so everything is fine - ugh
-UNSAFE BRIDGE!!1!!1 I’m waiting for someone to fall off- just once, please
-Mal and Uma jumping up and down when they kmeetis the cutest fucking thing on earth
-Ben needs a different thing to dance in, his suit is so stiff
-Harry and Audrey? Hmmmm I’m not opposed but I’m also not feelin it
-Were those people just...waiting there with an already built dragon?
-Ben likes to hip thrust in every movie, no lie

Tonight on Legend of the Hare: Rasslevania! 
This was originally supposed to be a birthday, but then I thought of the phrase “no holds barred mitzvah” and changed it last second. do like that Jill and Riley both don’t actually know what a bar mitzvah is. Given that the next few pages portray the event as taking place in an arena (?) around a wrestling ring (??) and one of the people in attendance is a music industry scout (?!), it’s also possible that I didn’t know what a Bar Mitzvah was, or at the very least didn’t bother to change any of the later pages to account for this change. This is a really stupid plot point! And it also means that the band is tempted by money at a Jewish event, which is one of those things I probably should have stopped to consider the implications of, but I clearly didn’t consider the implications of anything I was doing on any level. In the aborted LotH Version 2, this whole scene was going to be an actual birthday party, and Riley would sing a song that would be way inappropriate for kids and the family would kick them out, which Riley would blame on Jill before Peggy showed up an arrested them all. It would be at the police station where the rabbits first appeared, and V2 was getting very far from V1 before I gave up on it.
There’s something very Scott Pilgrim vs the World-y in those first three panels, especially Jill’s band being a retro gaming reference. Who came up with that name, anyway? Also, wow, I just told Carlos to draw a generic indie wrestling poster and gave him a sample of one, but I totally passed on a chance to put a joke on the poster. Missed opportunity, past me! Also, using “Goldstein” as a generic Jewish name, bluh.  That’s lazy, it should’ve been a funnier name. If it’d been, like, “Rick ‘The Rack’ Ruckus presents: His son’s no-holds-barred mitzvah” then there’s a little character in it, the idea that maybe it’s the dad who likes wrestling and not the kid, which gives me an opportunity to have a joke later about the son being bored and also kind of helps explain why there’s no actual Bar Mitzvahing going on. You can tell how much I’m feeling a page by how much effort I’m putting into finding these spaces for a joke. In a perfect ideal word, a writer should spend as much time on a page as the artist, going over every line and background detail and trying to find ways to get as much mileage as possible out of every panel and taking every chance for a clever joke. Obviously, this doesn’t usually happen in practice. But it should! It’s very easy to pop out something passable in ten minutes as a writer in a way an artist can’t, but you should hold yourself to a higher standard and even now I don’t do that as much as I should.
Panel 3 looks like a generic alley, but I actually took a photo of an alley in Boston I liked and had Carlos use it as a reference
Tumblr media
I’m not quite sure why I found this image so striking, but it adds a little to the sense of place that this alley has a brick road instead of a paved street, and is one of the very few visual clues that this comic takes place in Boston and not Generic City, so it was worth the time to photograph. Also, hey, that’s Eoin in a trenchcoat reading a newpaper in the background of paper three there. The original opening to Legend of the Hare would have had Trenchcoat Eoin (back when he was called Teporingo) and Mary Farrier at Doink Burger scoping Jill out as a potential rabbit champion. This never got past the first draft stage and mostly revolved around Mary being a hyper child and not focusing. Interestingly, the script I have for that opening establishes Legend of the Hare as being set in Oregon. I wonder why I set it there originally, given that I’ve never been. It might have just been a reference to Gravity Falls?
Anyway, this is the first appearance of Riley, and note that even this early he’s making fun of Jill behind her back. Old man Starflower seems to just accept what Jill is saying as normal, which looks like a joke but is also foreshadowing, since Starflower knows a bit more than was ever shown to the audience. Sadly, it never comes up in the comic because everything’s a mess, but Mary Farrier the horse champion is Starflower’s daughter, and it was through him that the rabbits learned of Jill. It’s all connected, but offscreen because I wasn’t doing anything properly.
The Lore Post for this page will be of grave importance to a few people: It’s the first appearance of Helen Alvarez, the Rooster Champion and surprisingly popular minor character! Helen doesn’t actually appear on-panel for like 40 pages, and by then she’s very clearly sick of all the “cock” jokes, but she seems to be in better humor about it here:
Dear Diary,
I don’t know if anyone’s going to read this, but if you’re reading this now, hi.
So today was odd. I skipped school and then a bunch of Roosters flew me off to Cock-Narnia. Little bit unexpected, that twist. They gave me the whole “Chosen One” spiel I’ve seen in a million fantasy novels, though they didn’t seem to know who actually chose me or why. They offered to let me go home, but I told them nah. Even a crappy Harry Potter LARP thing run by birds is better than Mom and Brad. And, honestly, I wasn’t going to make a better career choice than being the “Lady of Cocks”, so I might as well get on the Cock while I can. Got the tattoo and everything. I’m sure that’ll stop being funny any second now, but I’ve only been here a few hours so I’m going to ride the cock train just a bit more.
The cocks – there it is, this is old -the roosters are not very smart. Which I guess isn’t surprising, because they’re birds? But they can talk, so you’d think they’d be smarter than normal birds. And maybe they are, but they ain’t shown signs of it yet.
I tried to get some details on what my Cock Destiny (okay, one more) was, but no one was able to answer me. Kind of defeats the point of having a prophesied destiny if it’s a mystery, doesn’t it? If I wanted vague promises of future greatness, I’d see the guidance counselor again.
Isn’t that life, though? In that….um…..you never know what you’re gonna get? Or something? I dunno. I really don’t know anything. Supposedly once I sign up I get all kinds of magical girl superpowers, but I don’t feel very super right now. I mostly just wanna lie down. Such hero. Very amaze.
Actually, lying down sounds like a great idea right now. I need to stress over all my decisions today. I’m gonna go do that.
How was your day?
Holy hell, you can tell this lore post is old, there’s a doge reference.

Character Analysis: Angus Macgyver
@tomminowrites asked if I and a couple other writers would consider using this list of questions to do a character analysis for Mac in our own ways. This ended up being a hell of a lot longer than I was planning, but honestly everything I write ends up that way so at this point I don’t know why I’m even surprised. Most of this is just what I’ve seen from the show itself plus some headcanons for things we haven’t seen. There’s one section in which I do not agree with the show at all, but you’ll see that when you get to it. Anyways, enjoy!! (@thethistlegirl sorry if anything is really similar to yours lol)
What would completely break your character?
Mac already feels a lot of weight and responsibility when it comes to protecting people, and any time he feels like he could’ve done more to save someone it destroys a little part of him. If he were ever to lose someone he truly cared about, like Jack or Riley or Bozer, or now even Matty, and he felt like he could’ve done more, there’d be no coming back from that. Mac would sink so far into himself, throw himself into the most self-destructive habits he has until he’s nothing but a broken shell of the man he used to be. (By that same token, if any of them were ever to abandon or betray him, well... let’s just say I honestly believe Mac would end up suicidal.)
What was the best thing in your character’s life?
There are two best things in Mac’s life, and those two things are Wilt Bozer and Jack Dalton. Those two were there at his two most trying moments in his life, and he met them exactly when he needed them and they helped him through situations he never would’ve survived (at least not in one piece) on his own.
What was the worst thing in your character’s life?
There’ve been some pretty crappy things in his life, but finding out his dad wasn’t  coming home ever again on his tenth birthday was probably the crappiest. Losing Peña comes in at a pretty close second, but nothing has ever been as bad as that day. Mac remembers feeling numb, asking himself over and over again why his dad would leave him, and over and over again the answer his brain would tell him was “because you weren’t smart enough, Angus.” For Mac, there’s nothing worse than that day.
What seemingly insignificant memories stuck with your character?
Mac remembers the smell that used to fill the kitchen when his mom made her favorite apple pie (warm apples and sweet cinnamon sugar). He remembers the shirt he was wearing the day his dad left (blue and white short-sleeve polo with the buttons done all the way up. he did them himself). He remembers the conversation the lady in the grocery store was having with her daughter, the first time he went shopping for himself (No, Sammy, you cannot have an entire bag of marshmallows all for yourself!). He remembers the song Jack sang the first time they rode in a Humvee together (a really horribly off-key rendition of Whitesnake’s Here I Go Again).
Does your character work so that they can support their hobbies or use their hobbies as a way of filling up the time they aren’t working?
It’s a little bit of both and neither, really. Mac’s work pretty much consists of all his hobbies, but there are certain projects he takes on when he’s home just for fun. Sometimes a mission will give him an idea, and he’ll test that idea at home, or in the Phoenix labs. He learned very early on that some things were better done in a safer environment than your kitchen. (The last time he tried to experiment in the kitchen, he melted half the countertop and exploded a soap dispenser.)
What is your character reluctant to tell people?
Mac is always reluctant to tell people just how much they mean to him. In his mind, admitting you need someone just makes the abandonment that much worse when they eventually walk away. He’s also always reluctant to tell people that he doesn’t know something. James instilled in him the need to always know the answer, and even now, 17 years on his own, he still feels like he’s going to be yelled at for now knowing something. (Jack has helped, a lot. Bozer too. But having someone in a position of authority and seniority be amazed at even the simplest things you know really helps alleviate the feeling that you need to know everything in order to be treated right.)
How does your character feel about sex?
now this is where I really disagree with the show Mac doesn’t view sex casually. As someone who doesn’t let people in easily, intimacy for him is reserved for people he really, truly, connects with. Nikki was one of the few girlfriends in his life he felt comfortable enough with to have that type of relationship with, but he always knew she was much more focused on that part of their relationship than he was. Mac isn’t someone who just throws that around with people for kicks, he feels it’s something almost sacred between two people who love each other. (fyi yes I was very upset with the way they portrayed nikki’s and his relationship in the first ep, and very very upset with the implications of his relationship with Aly in s2)
How many friends does your character have?
Mac’s the type of person who would be friends with the barista who makes his coffee every morning. He knows the name of every tech worker he’s ever crossed paths with at the Phoenix. On the surface meaning of the word, Mac has an endless amount of friends. In a deeper sense of the word, there’s Frankie, and Penny, and Carlos, and Charlie, and Sam, too. But actual friends, true friends that know almost everything there is to know about him? There’s just Jack, Bozer, and Riley. (Matty is slowly inching her way into that circle, and if Jill was still alive, she would’ve been on that list too.)
How many friends does your character want?
Mac isn’t the type to let a lot of people into his life, and for the longest time his only close friend was Bozer. He’s never been one to want more than that, Bozer and Penny were always enough. He’s always happy to add more friends to his little circle of family, but he’s content with however many he has. (If he never makes another friend in his life, he’s perfectly happy with that.)
What would your character make a scene in public about?
If it’s for his own sake, Mac would hardly make a scene for any reason. But when it comes to his friends or some innocent party, Mac won’t hesitate to make a scene if he thinks he can help in some way. If he thinks someone is in danger, he’ll make a scene in any way he can to bring the attention to himself, anything to take the focus off someone else. And he’s never really thought about why, but he’s been known to make a scene when a child is being unfairly yelled at by their parents, or an authority figure. (Jack always has a sad, soft smile on his face whenever Mac looks at him after, and he never really understands why.)
What would your character give their life for?
Mac has several self-destructive qualities, and he had a penchant for often thinking of himself as the expendable one. Because of that, Mac is always willing to give his life for almost anyone, even the guys he usually tries to stop. He hates the thought of anyone getting hurt unnecessarily, and he’d almost always rather it be him than them. (It’s given Jack quite a few headaches over the years. He tries to think of himself as irreplaceable, but he can’t help it when he sees someone else in danger. It’s like a default setting in his brain.)
What are your character’s major flaws?
Mac has a tendency to come across a bit arrogant without meaning to. He can go off on his scientific rants and correct people without thinking and it doesn’t always work out well. He also has a tendency to assume that he’s the smartest person in the room, and again that doesn’t always work out so well for him. But one of his biggest flaws is his inability to trust people. Because of this, he often thinks that his way is best, that he’s better off if he does it himself, and sometimes that can be deadly for people. He has problems letting other people help, even when he knows deep down that he can’t do it on his own.
What does your character pretend or try to care about?
Mac only pretends to care about something if it’s not someone he particularly likes. He’ll fake a smile, nod a couple times, but usually, his mind’s a mile away working on some project he’s working on in the lab. But if it’s someone he cares about, he never pretends. He tries to care about things his friends do, even if they have no interest for him whatsoever. He doesn’t always have an interest in the music Jack likes, or the food Bozer cooks, or the computer code Riley’s writing. But he makes it a point to try, for their sake. (Jack knows he doesn’t care about classic rock that much, but he appreciates that he tries. Bozer knows he doesn’t care about the exact blend of spices he’s putting in their burgers, but he tries, and that’s all Bozer cares about. Riley knows that Mac can hardly follow the code she’s writing, but he still sits and listens and tries to ask questions he knows she wants to answer, and for her that’s enough.)
How does the image your character tries to project differ from the image they actually project?
Mac tries to project an air of toughness and un-attachment, afraid to let people know how much things hurt, or how much he actually cares. But the key world there is ‘tries’. Everyone who’s spent longer than two seconds with him knows that he’s nothing but a giant puppy. Sure, he’s tough, and he keeps his emotions in check, but he can’t help the way his eyes and body language speak volumes. Jack can take one look into his eyes and see just how much he’s hurting. Bozer can see the way he shifts his weight and knows he’s in pain. Riley can see his smile and read the depths of his affection for the people around him. To the world, Mac is gentle, kind, smart, and genuine.
What is your character afraid of?
He’s deathly afraid of heights, so much so that he sometimes loses every piece of useful information he’s ever known until he’s back at a reasonable height. There have only been a handful of times anyone’s ever seen him completely panic, and the majority of those times involve heights. He’s also afraid of abandonment, whether by choice or just by chance. He’s constantly terrified he’s going to lose anyone he’s ever close to. He knows Jack would never walk out on him, not for any reason he can help, yet he’s constantly terrified that one day he’s going to wake up and find out that Jack is gone. He’s terrified he’s going to come home one day and find every one of Bozer’s possessions absent from the house. And for the longest time, was scared he was never going to know why his dad actually left. (Until the day he did find out, and now he’s terrified that the man he spent most his life trying to find is now going to end up being a permanent resident in his life.)
What is something most people in your setting do that your character thinks is dumb?
Honestly, Mac thinks social media is dumb. Sure, he gets the appeal and idea of Facebook, of being able to keep up to date with certain friends you don’t see as often as you wish you could. But things like Twitter and Instagram? He doesn’t get it. Instagram to him is just a bunch of people trying to prove they have a better life than they do. Twitter is just people begging for attention, from anyone who’s willing to listen. He gets it a little on a casual level, but the fact that there are people who are actually famous on Instagram just makes zero sense to him. (He does enjoy reddit, though. He’s constantly getting into discussions about scientific formulas and ideas and better ways to do things, posting project successes and failures and advising other users on certain procedures. He’d never breath a word of it to anyone. He has no idea that Riley found it somehow, and spends some of her lazy nights laughing hysterically at his projects and discussions.)
Where would your character fall on a politeness/rudeness scale?
Fairly in the middle, leaning a bit more towards polite than rude. He never means it, but to people who don’t know him he can come across like an arrogant know-it-all. He also has a sarcastic streak bigger than Texas, and he’s hard-pressed to keep it at bay, especially when he’s around Jack. He sometimes has an issue with authority, as well, and it’s gotten him into quite a bit of trouble. But he’s unfailingly polite when he deems it necessary, and he’s always the first to offer a smile and kind word to people he passes in his daily life. But if he doesn’t like someone, he errs just a bit more on the rude side. (There’s was a fellow eod tech in the sandbox that Mac didn’t particularly like. He wasn’t exactly a jerk, but he was a tad pretentious and haughty and Mac didn’t even bother keeping his sarcasm in check when it came to him. Every other person in their unit thought Mac was an angel except for that tech. He didn’t understand how people thought Mac was nice.)

Heart’s Choice - Chapter 22
Tumblr media
*Warning Adult Content*
- Carlos -
I've never been able to pinpoint the exact moment my consciousness slips free of my body and leaves it behind.
I just know when it's happened.
I know it's happened when I open my eyes and find myself outside the circle, watching myself and John.
My body looks still and peaceful as a statue of the seated Buddha, while John watches warily, on the lookout for any sign of a change.
For the moment, we're both safe.
Things are under control and I sense only one other presence.
"Mr. Martinez?"
I turn, my astral body feeling as real as my physical one and see Kyle watching me from the shadows in the corner of the shop.
Right. Not creepy at all."
Kyle?" I move towards him cautiously. "Are you okay?"
His eyes gleam with uncanny light, like an animal's at night.
"I'm scared," he whispers.
Christ. Poor kid.
"Do you remember what happened?"
He shakes his head.
"I went to buy lunch. Then... I was back here. I keep trying to leave. Sometimes I go home. But I always come back here."
Great. He's stuck in a loop.
I suck my bottom lip and try to come up with the right words.
"Kyle, it's okay. Don't worry about lunch. I'm not hungry anymore. Are you?"
"No," he says, his voice small and soft as a child's. "I don't feel anything anymore. What's happening to me, Mr. Martinez? Why am I like this?"
Fuck. This is messed up.
I hold out my hand to him.
"Kyle, come here. I'm gonna show you something, okay?"
With heartbreaking trust, he comes towards me and takes my hand.
"Close your eyes. I'm gonna take us somewhere. Don't open them until I say."
He nods and shuts his creepily gleaming eyes obediently.
I shut mine as well and envision the place I want to take us as strongly as I can.
When the sounds and smells of the location surround me, I open my eyes and blink against the glare of a bright, mid-morning sun, which makes me very glad my astral body isn't as hungover as my physical one.
"Okay, you can look now," I say.
Kyle blinks and rubs a hand, still blackened with ghostly engine grease, against his brow.
"Why are we in a cemetery, Mr. Martinez?"
Confronting someone with the fact of their death isn't the gentlest way to go about getting them to realize that they're dead but I need Kyle to get the point quickly.
It seems like he's fragmented, probably shattered by the extreme trauma of the manner in which he was killed and he doesn't seem aware of our previous encounters.
He probably forgets everything he's done as soon as he resets in the garage, like an NPC restarting a level in a video game.
Like the Ghost of Christmas Past, I point to the plain, budget grave marker at Kyle's feet.
It's not even a headstone... just a small plaque set in the grass and like someone trying to read in a dream, Kyle struggles to make out what it says.
I give him a minute and when he finally figures it out, his spirit flickers and loses a few shades of saturation as he looks up at me with eyes full of tragic defeat.
"Oh, yeah. I'm dead," he says. "I keep forgetting. Sorry, Mr. Martinez."
"It's okay. I just wanna help you. Do you remember what happened?"
Kyle gets a faraway look, as if he's daydreaming about something else... literally another life but after a moment, he shakes his head.
"Sorry, Mr. Martinez. I remember going for lunch. There were no burgers left. I was afraid you'd be mad, so I went... somewhere else. Then it's all... blurry after that."
I bite back a sigh of exasperation.
On the one hand, it's a mercy Kyle doesn't remember what happened to him.
Seeing his insides become outsides, while he was still alive and knowing there was no way he could survive something like that, is a trauma that would break anyone's mind.
On the other hand, it would have been really convenient if he could just tell me who the bad guy was.
"What's the last thing you remember clearly?" I ask.
"Someone called my name," he says. "They called me and I was happy because..."
He trails off as his expression goes blank.
He flickers again, now so drained of color he's practically in black and white.
'Fuck, I'm losing him. If he resets, I'll have to start all over.'
"Kyle, concentrate. Who was it? Who called your name?"
"My name?"
He looks at me and suddenly his eyes are completely clear and lucid and full of fear.
"My parents."
"What? Kyle, your parents are..."
Sheer terror contorts his face and he reaches for me, grasping my left shoulder with a hand like ice.
'Find my parents, Mr. Martinez. And stay away from him."
"Who is 'him' Kyle?"
He's fading fast, almost transparent and his voice is a thin echo of what it was.
"Help me."
With those two, barely audible words, he's gone.
Then my world tips to the side, flipped like a rotating mirror and goes dark.
Dizzy and disoriented, I pick myself up.
Darkness surrounds me and while I stand in my astral body, I get the sense there is no real 'down' or 'up' in this place.
Great. I slipped into a shadow plane, probably dragged along by Kyle.
He's not here, though. And yet, I'm not alone.
Something dark is watching me... something close.
I've only felt a presence like this once before.
Aunt Toni barely dragged me back to the living world on time and I had nightmares for months.
It's the same feeling of swimming in dark water and being suddenly convinced that there's something beneath you, about to grab you and drag you down or feeling you're being watched from the shadows in the woods.
A primal, instinctive fear that can quickly escalate to panic.
I tamp down on it, hard, doing my best to remain calm.
Emotions are energy and in a place like this, energy attracts demons the way movement attracts the Rex in Jurassic Park.
Then again, just like a real t-rex probably had pretty good eye-sight and would have had no problem spotting someone even if he was holding still, so too, whatever's in this place will have no trouble finding me.
As it nears, its presence overwhelms me.
Whatever it is, it's big and bad and I don't know if even the world's greatest exorcist 'whoever that is' would have a chance against something like this.
It's as many times more powerful than I am as I am to an ant.
Still, ants can bite and I ready what defenses I have and prepare to fight.
Something looms above me, big as a building.
I get an impression of an immense form, leathery wings, bone and stinking flesh... fire, ash and rot.
I choke, falling back beneath the stench and then I'm falling again, my world flips like an hourglass and my eyes... my real, flesh and blood eyes... snap open.
I'm on my back, lying on the hard, cold, deliciously real concrete of my garage and the face of an angel looks down on me.
"Jesus fucking Christ Carlos, are you alive?" John asks.
I cough and fill my lungs with air a few times.
"Yeah. Looks that way."
"Fuck."
He hangs his head and I wince and rub my chest, which is weirdly sore.
Also my mouth tastes like mint.
"What happened?" I ask. "Is the circle intact?"
He lifts his head and glares at me, eyes bloodshot with stress.
"Yeah, the circle's fine. You, on the other hand, fell over and had what looked like a seizure. Then you stopped breathing. I gave you CPR. I just about gave up when... you came back."
He rubs a hand over his mouth and stares down at me, as if afraid I'll pass out again or disappear if he takes his eyes off me.
Meanwhile, I'm boneless as a jellyfish with relief.
Wherever I was, whatever I saw, it didn't follow me through.
Neither is there any trace of Kyle.
"Sorry," I say, sitting up gingerly. "I should have warned you that might happen."
"You think?"
I cough and laugh.
"I'm okay, really. It's not impossible for someone to lose the connection to their physical body entirely while traveling but it's super rare."
"So, what you're saying is the chance you could have died is greater than zero."
"Uh... yeah. I guess."
"Fucking hell," he sighs and shakes his head. "Okay, what now?"
"Help me up."
I ask more because I want to feel the solid, physical warmth of a living body than because I really need help but he obliges.
I lean into his strength, breathe his scent and accidentally find myself resting against his chest, my head on his shoulder and my arms around his waist.
"Uh... So are you okay now?" he asks, sounding a bit strained, when I finally come back to reality.
"Sorry," I release him and step back a pace. "I just needed to get grounded again. This will just take a minute."
Quickly, I complete the ritual, sending any lingering spirits back to their home realms and cleansing the circle before I break it, releasing the sacred space.
"So, what did you get?" John asks, as I cross to my work bench, grab a clean rag and use it to wipe the sweat from my face.
I tell him what Kyle told me.
"He wants you to look for his parents? That case is long cold," John says, frowning. "Anything else?"
After a slight hesitation, I tell him about the presence.
He listens non-reactively, neither accepting nor rejecting but simply absorbing what I have to say.
'Again, perfect guy.'
"What's wrong now?" he asks, as I slump a little and sigh.
"Nothing. Did I say anything on this side?"
"Nope. You just sat there until you fell over and had a fit."
I laugh and then cough again, rubbing my sore sternum.
"Thanks for trying to save me, even if it wasn't necessary."
"Are you sure it wasn't?" he asks. "I gave you artificial respiration for almost five minutes. People have been brain dead after not breathing for less time."
'Mouth to mouth for five minutes? Why did I have to be unconscious for that?'
I frown at him.
"My body is used to it. And it might look like I'm not breathing, but I am... just very slowly. In fact, forcing me to breathe faster might do more harm than good. But... thank you for saving my life."
He breaks eye contact and looks away, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly as he checks his cell-phone.
"Shit," he swears, scrolling through his messages.
"What?"
"They ID'd the body we found in the park."
"Who was it?" I ask, craning to see over his shoulder.
"One Daryl Sparks. A private investigator based out of Shasta City."
He taps a link in a message and a website opens on his phone.
A balding white guy with teeth so bleached they put snow to shame grins from the top of a page full of glowing endorsements, including... 'The best detective since Sherlock Holmes'... which, honestly, seems like a bit of a stretch.
"What was he doing in Spring Lakes?" I ask.
Shasta's only about an hour away, which isn't that much in this region of remote little towns but still not a drive one takes without a reason.
"That, dear Watson, is the question," John murmurs.
"Or rather, given where and how he was killed, I'd bet my last dollar he was investigating Kyle's death. So, the real question is... who hired him?"
"Can't you find out? Hack his computer or whatever?"
He looks over his shoulder at me.
"Probably. That's my next move, anyway. You up for a little drive?"
"You... want me to come with you?" I ask, hoping I don't sound as desperately hopeful as I feel.
He turns and meets my eyes with an intensity that roots me to the spot.
"Yeah. If this guy's a ghost now, he might go back to a place he's connected to, right? Besides, after what just happened, I am not letting you out of my sight until this is over and done. Especially not tonight. Understand?"
I nod. Unless we can stop it, tonight is the night of the second Feast.
"Good. Grab whatever you need for your ghost hunt and let's go."

Au where kate is a police officer but she falls in love with Seth despite knowing he is a criminal
(what, she wrote something that’s not a bazillion unnecessary words long? who is this?)
              “Lights up!”
A brilliant glare lit up thesmall concrete room beyond the glass and the six figures along the wall blinkedagainst the harsh beam. Unconsciously, her eyes fell down the line to numberfive. He was still scowling into the light, his clothes rumpled and his hairmussed. Kate bit her tongue and hid the blooming smirk behind her Styrofoam cupof burnt coffee.
Her partner fortunately didn’tsee this.
              “Alright, Mr. Vakesh, take your time,” Kisa said, herarms crossed, standing near the fuming shop owner. “Look at every face, try andremember what he—,”
              “The man had a ski-mask! I told you this before!” Hewaved, frustrated, at the mirror. “They are all the same!”
How Kisa managed to look thisawake and ready to arrest the devil himself at five thirty in the morning was amystery Kate had long ago stopped attempting to answer. After three yearsworking the Houston beat together, Kisa’s most consistent response was herpreference as a night owl. Kate shook her head and tried to muster the strengthto continue the office swill.
              “That’s fine, Mr. Vakesh, but do you remember his height?His build? Anything he said.”
The shop-owner rubbed hisstubble along his chin and glared across the wide space. “He was … nervous.Fidgeting with the gun. He had a big gut.”
Kate took a sip, a smalleyebrow raised. Well, that eliminated several of the perps on this particularlineup, especially number five. Seth Gecko was many things and fidgety with agun was not one of them.
Mr. Vakesh of the local OneStop’s spent another twenty minutes peering through the light and into each ofthe faces. The overseeing officer had the lineup turn this way and that andjust after six, Mr. Vakesh identified number three as the man who robbed hisliquor store and the entire backroom breathed a silent sigh of relief.Robberies tended to consist of a lot of paperwork, knocking on doors, and mostof them ended here at a lineup. Tied up with a bow, nice and easy.
The man identified was CarlosVasquez, a well-known occasional errand boy for the local mob and life-time pothead.Kate supposed Seth could have been mistaken for Vasquez, if Seth was aboutfifteen years older with the body of a fry cook.
Kate chunked the now-chilledcup of caffeine-flavored oil into the trash can and smiled at Kisa as a uniformled Mr. Vakesh out of the room to take a follow-up statement.
              “Great line up you found there,” Kate said and noddedas the rest of the five slowly meandered out of the concrete room.
Seth was rubbing his eyeswith his palms as he shuffled after a short man who was falling asleep on hisfeet.
              “Any particular reason you chose to put it togetherbefore even the birds are up?”
Kisa shrugged as she watchedwith a small smile on her face as she watched the overseeing officer clap ironson Vasquez.
              “Less of a fight if they’re half-asleep.”
Kate shrugged. “I see your point. Speaking of which … I’m not even going to ask if you want a cup ofcoffee.”
              “Good you caught on.”
Kate rolled her eyes, knowingthe bite was entirely perfunctory. She opened the door and tossed her braidover her shoulder, tiredness growing into a knot behind her eyes. Weaving inbetween uniforms and witnesses and reports on desks, Kate went out to the lobbywhere the coffee was incrementally better. Plus, there was more sugar.
The machine started hissingthe moment she turned it on but given that it was barely six, and the sun wasstill a pale pink streak in the sky, she was willing to risk the explosion.
Her head resting against thewall, her eyes began to fall closed.
She heard the rustling of thecups and she opened one eye to see number five tear open his own sugar packet.
              “You know that’s not for those fingered for liquorstore robberies?”
              “I’ve never robbed a liquor store in my life,” Sethsaid as he filled up the cup with black sludge. “And I resent the implication.”
              “Don’t blame me because you look like an out-of-shapedrug dealer.”
He cut his eyes over the rimas she filled up her own cup. “Is this because of the run-around last week overwhat-his-face?”
              “Robert Millhouse, a convicted arsonist, was on therun and you and your brother wasted the time of over three officers for morethan four hours, running them around, on a ‘hunch’—,”
              “Hmm, arson, such a messy profession—,”
              “Because armed robbery is such an in-and-out process—,”
              “It is if you do it right. Besides, I served my time.”
Kate rolled her eyes.
And promptly realized theywere standing inches from each other. His smirk was antagonistic.
She stepped back and a sip ofthe sludge, too hot in the back of her throat. She blamed that for the warmblush over her cheeks.
              “You look tired.”
              “Okay, Paunch Burger, that’s enough for the day—,”
              “I’m serious, Kate, are you sleeping enough?”
He leaned against the metalcart and frowned. Oh, he was a talented liar, feigning concern, she had to giveit to him.
              “I’d sleep better knowing the bad guys are where theydeserve to be.” She let a little ice flow into her words, but Seth only shrugged.
              “Which why makes you so good at your job, I’d imagine.”Seth’s scowl darkened after another taste of coffee. “Alright, you wanna getout of here?”
Kate’s heart disconnected andflipped backwards in her chest. “What?”
If he knew the affect he hadon her, he didn’t show. Seth tossed the half-empty cup into the trash. “Yourboys yanked me out of Jack’s just as we were closing, but Richie being fuckingRichie, I’m sure the son of a bitch is already opening up the doors again. Wantto grab breakfast?”
He was too casual, as thoughthere wasn’t this power disjunction between them. As though she hadn’t arrested him two years before, and consistently went to him for information on the seedy Houston criminal underbelly. Detectives didn’t makefriends with convicted criminals, and boy howdy, how her father disapprove ofhis Katie hanging out with anyone who even remotely looked like Seth Gecko.
              “First stack of pancakes is only half-off because Igot dragged down here at the ass-crack of dawn and I know you had something todo with it.” His mouth tugged up in the corners, and Kate could hear thewarning bells as clear as day. “But the coffee’s gonna be free because you’rejust so pretty.”
              “So you’re going legit? Working with your brother athis bar?”
Seth grinned, not missing hermisdirection. “Pay’s shit, but food’s better on the outside.” He reached intohis wallet and took out a card, as if she didn’t know exactly where to findhim. But on the back was his direct number.
              “Are you serious?” She gaped.
He shrugged. “Life’s a bitch,then you die. Too short to pretend I don’t like you.”
              “You’re a liar.”
              “You don’t think I like you?”
              “You’d double charge me for the coffee.”
Seth bit the corner of hismouth to prevent the smile from exploding across his face. “See you around,Katie-cakes.”
Kate watched him saunter outof the precinct, hands in his pockets and whistling a tune, into thebreaking dawn. She bit her nail, his card in her hand, and promised herself tokeep it far, far away from any bad drunk decisions.
Well, maybe not too far.
