Wheelsy AU ~ Tire changing

[noteasytobepink]

"You know Bill..." Clarice drawled cheerfully. "When you said you wanted to show me the nearest 'city' I thought you meant we'd actually get there." She took her hat off and fanned herself with it, the ballcap doing little to stir the hot, damp air, but at least it was better than glowering.

"And yeah, that really does look like dry rot in the spare there. Never seen it in a tire before but I've seen it in other materials..." She wasn't even sure why they had headed out. A better bar where no one expected him to fix their problems? A place she was suppose to get fitted for a civilian aid uniform? Who knew!

"I don't know if I'd go the whole hundred percent," he chuckled, bringing his hand up to lay over hers on his chest.

"I'm sure there's a thing or three I could improve on. But don't worry, I also ain't that jealous guy who's gonna be pickin' fights all the time."

He yawned, and laying back with her like this has the night settling in fast with a sleepy feeling.

"I'll try an' not be too much of a handful for you."

[noteasytobepink]

"Alright, but I'll insist on ninety-nine percent okay?" He couldn't convince her otherwise! He couldn't!

Hmmm...

"I don't do jealousy, I don't. But I don't mind a handful or two. It can be a lot of fun..." Why yes, yes she was veing laviscious at him! "Not tonight though. Tired."

"I think I can live with that." A near perfect score was less intimidating than a perfect one.

He chuckled low at her next reply, shaking his head in amusement.

"You're somethin' else, girl, y'know that."

Turning his head, he pressed a kiss to her crown.

"An' that ain't a bad thing, neither."

"Well, if i wasn't something else I wouldn't be nearly so interesting." She grinned and closed her eyes after a jaw cracking yawn. "I mean how many normal people can pull off the pink? Really?"

Hmmm..."Think I"m going to skip running tomorrow. Wanna sleep in."

[no_andy_taylor]

"Know I couldn't." Pink really wasn't his color.

"I am all for sleepin' in. If I ain't dead come tomorrow afternoon I'll take you t'lunch." Save them both the hassle of cooking.

"Well, hopefully you can handle it next to you even if you don't favor pink." She kissed his shoulder teasingly and snuggled back down.

"Sleep until we wake up, then play it by ear? I'm okay with no real plans."

[no_andy_taylor]

"I don't mind pink at all like this."

He squeezed her hand, and let his eyes slip closed.

"That sounds good t'me."

[noteasytobepink]

"Then see you in the morning babe...probably with a lot of wincing." She'd reach across him in the night for the Gatorade, but she wouldn't have nightmares.

Not this time.

That was something right?
