it's getting hot in here

“Kenna.”

“So, I may or may not just have ordered about thirty boxes of chocolate. Oops?”

“How is that an oops? That sounds amazing. I wish I ordered chocolate.”

“If I have to sit through another Whitmore dinner where my mum asks me if I’ve met someone special yet, I’ll scream.”

“Yes, it does.”

“I feel bad I didn’t get a mask then.”

“Dang, Bash, you clean up nice. Forget the mask, you don’t need it.”

“I’d say you clean up nice, but you always look nice. You sure I don’t need a mask?”

“You’ve never found someone so hot you’ve cried? You must actually have a life. See on my days off of work I go to coffee shop and stalk hot guys. I’m an extremely sad person.”

“Oh, what’s your job? I’m a firefighter.”

“I’m so sorry.”

“Oh,” they blinked, “you’re a firefighter? Wow, that’s so cool! Do you know Rudy Killian?”

“Honestly? No. I don’t know what the hell is wrong with me today.”

“Is being nice not a good thing to you?”

“…Please tell me you’re joking.  Please, please, please, a beautiful man can not be so stupid, can he?  Sorry I was talkin’ to God there, for a second.”

“Sorry. I just don’t watch a lot of movies.”

“Honestly? I think I might have shed a tear or two.”

“I honestly have no idea what to say here, I’m sorry. I’ve never been in that predicament.”

“I saw a really hot man today and all I could think was.. “

“Did you cry?”

“A rocket launcher in the refrigerator… much more interesting than a car bomb in a football field, where was I on that day of work?” Rudy laughed, carding his hands through his hair. “The good stuff? Like being sober and alone in a big, cutesy house full of my ex-girlfriend’s stuff? There’s not much of a silver lining here.”

“A car bomb in a football field has happened quite few times. You’d think they’d bump up the security there if it’s happened once.” Bash’s smile dropped slightly at the comment even though Rudy was smiling. “...Right. Maybe not the good things that involve her then?”
