Title: Plans

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Dee, Ryo

Rating: G

Setting: Sometime during the manga, but before Vol. 7.

Disclaimer: I don’t own FAKE, or the characters. They belong to the wonderful Sanami Matoh.

A/N: This one’s a double drabble.

New York had been sweltering under a heat wave for over a week. After a long, uncomfortable day at work, because suits really weren’t fun to wear in such temperatures, both Dee and Ryo welcomed the end of their shift. Stripping off jackets and ties, they headed for Dee’s car, eager to leave before anyone found a reason for them to stay.

“Got any plans?” Dee asked casually.

“Beyond getting out of this suit, taking a shower and turning up the air conditioning? Not a thing.” Ryo brushed the sweat-darkened bangs off his forehead. Even his hair felt limp and exhausted. “Why?”

“Just wonderin’. I don’t either; I thought maybe we could pick up some food, a couple six packs, maybe a movie. Just be couch potatoes for the evening.”

“You’re inviting yourself over?” Ryo teased.

“Well, you said you didn’t have plans. I just thought it might be good after the day we’ve had. But if you don’t want to…” Dee trailed off dejectedly.

“Actually, that does sound pretty good,” Ryo agreed, smiling.

After all, sometimes even he could think of nothing better to do than kick back and drink a beer or two in front of the TV.

The End

That sounds like the perfect way to end a long sweltering day though I would skip the beer.

Yeah, me too, but they're guys, and cops at that. Beer is just a fact of life to them, lol!

Thank you!

Poor guys, having to wear suits all day in such a heat! Even Ryo is eager to leave the precinct and relax with Dee, lol!
And I know now how they feel because there's an unexpected heat wave over here and I can't wear shorts at work! Dammit! xD

[bk_forever]

Poor you! Oooh, send some of the heat over here, would you? That would be just what we need!

Yeah, poor guys. I see this as kind of a follow-up to my ice cream drabble! This is later the same week. They'll relax and enjoy a quiet evening together.

Thank you!

Sounds like a good evening :-)

I think they'll enjoy it. Ryo might not have accepted yet that he loves Dee, but he knows he likes having his partner around.

Thank you!
