Benny had three rules for life. One, don’t get caught. Two, if you do get caught, don’t tell them anything. Three, Romeo and Juliet is not the kind of story you want to base your romantic expectations on.

He was pretty good at following the first two, especially the second. The third he thought he was doing well on, until he noticed that the cop who was tailing him was really, really cute.

He was trying to be inconspicuous about it. He was in plain clothes, not in uniform; probably his assignment was to see if Benny was going anywhere suspicious. He was obviously new; Benny could see all his tells, from the way he kept nervously feeling for his gun to the way he narrowed his eyes whenever Benny moved. It was cute, really. Like he thought he could actually stop Benny from doing whatever he thought Benny was doing.

The reality was that Benny wasn’t doing anything; as soon as he had noticed he was being tailed, though he had only been going to the grocery store in the first place, he started taking a circuitous route to nowhere in particular.

Now, he turned a corner, turned around, and waited. Sure enough, the cop wasn’t expecting him, and he was able to grab him before he could so much as look surprised. In a moment Benny had him pinned to the wall, holding him there by his hands above his head.

The trouble was that he was still cute. And his face was flushed in a way that really didn’t help matters.

"Hey, kid," Benny said. "This your first time tailing someone?"

The kid swallowed. Benny watched his Adam's apple bob up and down. "Uh..."

"I was just goin' shopping," Benny said. "Groceries. I'm almost out of milk. Not so nefarious, huh?"

"No," the kid said. "Not unless 'milk' is a code word."

Benny laughed out loud. "You do talk."

"Oh, I do more than that," the kid said, getting his bravado back now that it was obvious Benny wasn't going to hurt him.

This, though, was probably the wrong thing to say, at least if he didn't want Benny to kiss him, because that was exactly where Benny's mind went. His eyes flickered to the kid's lips (and they were very nice lips), and when he looked back at his eyes, he saw that the kid was doing the same.

"What's your name?" Benny said.

"Winchester," the kid said. "Dean Winchester."

"Well, Winchester," Benny drawled, "you care to demonstrate any of these other things you do?"

Their faces were only an inch apart. Dean only had to lean forward the tiniest bit to kiss Benny. And after that, Benny practically lunged forward, knocking his head back against the wall in his haste. Luckily, Dean didn't seem to mind.

Eventually, Benny pulled away. "Listen, Dean, I ain't doing this Romeo-and-Juliet thing. It always ends badly."

"Yeah, I know," Dean said.

"But I ain't saying I don't want to do that again," Benny continued with a grin. "So you ever feel like it--"

"Yeah," Dean said, a little too quickly. 

"Good." Benny released his hands at last. "I'll see you later, Dean."
