"Since We Survived the Zombie Apocolypse..."

Sep 02, 2011 22:44

Tommy has had a long ass day today. With the running around, making sure the other teams are okay (except for the Titans; Such a damn shame) and helping with the reconstruction in both the Brownstone (hey, he lived there now) and Brooklyn (he's sure as hell not going to let where he grew up be wrecked) he'd hadn't given a lot of thought of what he ( Read more... )

When Tommy leaves the room, he's ready for the third degree but he's not going to simply take it.

"I don't know what you saw Pops, but nothing bad was happening."

Re: The Talk nation_jsa October 15 2011, 05:52:20 UTC

"Boy, I'm just sorry I walked in on ya. I was just going to tell you a couple of things, and I got some serious questions for ya. First off, I know public school did most of the heavy lifting here. Thank God." He shook his head and continued.

"Okay, I gotta know. How serious are you about Maxine over there?"

Re: The Talk nottomcat October 15 2011, 05:54:26 UTC

"Serious of the 'pretty damn' variety," Tommy said.

Re: The Talk nation_jsa October 15 2011, 06:05:15 UTC

"Good. Then I don't gotta tell you not to break her heart." He looks at Tommy fiercely. Ma's one of his best friends. Has been for a long time. He feels for Maxine like family already, and he won't see that girl cry.

"Now, I ain't going to say much on the matter. But if you run low, top drawer of my desk in my office."

Re: The Talk nottomcat October 15 2011, 06:07:20 UTC

O.O

"Dude, Pops! What the hell?"

Well, Tommy must never think of that again. Note to self, get brain bleach.

"Okay, she and I just started dating. We've had makeouts and that's it. Not there yet, and if it gets to that I can acquire my own stash."

Maxine could only wait so long, she burst out of her room with her sketch pad. Her eyes were red and she'd been crying.

"Please don't be mad Mr Grant! Nothing bad was happening honest! I was going to make Tommy a uniform for when he's Tommy because he;s just the most amazing guy and he's every bit the hero as Tommy as when he changes. I just wanted him to know how special he is and remind him he's always part of the team and not just when he's fuzzy."

She plaintively held out her sketch pad and showed the rough designs for a costume and measurements as she'd been taking them. "It was my fault, not his, please don't be angry with him."

Re: The Talk nation_jsa October 15 2011, 06:21:05 UTC

He ruffles Maxine's hair a bit with his hand, then hands her a book. "I gotcha this, Max. It was an idea for ya. Some Eastern fighting stuff Dinah's good at.

"I'm not mad. Now dry up your face, and I don't care what you kids do. Hell," he looks at the design, "that's not a bad idea for a costume. Maybe make talk to Michael. He's got that special fabric for Tommy to use."

"And if it's your fault... same thing I told him. Top drawer, desk, office."

He looks back to Tommy. "You make her have to drop out, I break yer jaw, son."

Re: The Talk nottomcat October 15 2011, 06:23:20 UTC

This...this couldn't be happening. He got hit by a train on the way back from the movies. He passed out form the makeouts. Hell, anything right now would be better than this.

Re: The Talk nanobytten October 15 2011, 06:28:13 UTC

Mortified.

That's what she was alright. Maxine blushed red as the roots of her hair and right down to her toes. Oh Gosh! He thought they were going to... Well..maybe they would one day but..."It's our first date." It was all she could manage to squeak out, holding the book he offered and her sketch pad in front of her like some sort of shielding for her shell shocked mind.

Re: The Talk nation_jsa October 15 2011, 07:12:42 UTC

Ted looked at the faces. "Well, I'll see you kids at the gym bright and early tomorrow! We got some new things to try out, and I'm making them drag in the other young members too."

He would walk away with a smile on his face. He may be old, but he can still freak out a kid like the best of them. He was darn proud of himself.

And this would be so much fun to torture Tommy with for weeks to come.

Re: The Talk nottomcat October 15 2011, 18:38:27 UTC

"I...uhhh...damn it. That was embarrassing," Tommy said as he watched Pops walk away, his hand on the small of Maxines back since her hands were full.

"I'm so sorry about that, Maxine."

Re: The Talk nanobytten October 16 2011, 00:24:36 UTC

"It was my fault, really. I just wanted to make something for you that would let everyone know how special you are as you." And it blew up rather spectacularly in her face, and embarrassed him and lead his father to think that they were having sex.

"Oh God Tommy, I'm sorry. I know you would never do something like that. Well I mean not that I wouldn't want to, someday. Not right now, sort of a mood killer. But someday if we get closer and it's right we could, but I really don't want to be going to your father about things. I don't think I can ever show my face to him again as is. How am I ever supposed to train with him again? all he'll see when he looks at me would be that tart who tried to sleep with his son. Oh no! What he if tells the others? He wouldn't do that would he? Oh Tommy."

Re: The Talk nottomcat October 16 2011, 00:55:20 UTC

Okay, Max is freaking a bit, which is not helping him. Okay, it worked before, so Tommys gonna go for a quick kiss before pulling away.

"Maxine, don't worry about it. Pops can be, well, an asshole sometimes but I think he'll be okay. And us dating, that's going to get out."

Tommy takes a deep breath, as to address the other thing.

"As for sex...well, we get there when we get there. You're not a 'tart', and Pops really has no say in the matter considering often he's been 'out and about', and Mom used to say. I'm sure you'll be fine. He'll probably tease, but nothing more than that."

And now a toothy grin.

"If he does, I'll just pop him one. Girlfriends honor and all that."

Re: The Talk nanobytten October 16 2011, 01:23:13 UTC

It was sort of like those kisses were magic. They had a way of stilling her rambling and easing her fears. It shut her up instantly and had her attention fully focused on him.

"You still want to be my boyfriend?"

Re: The Talk nottomcat October 16 2011, 01:51:26 UTC

"Yep."

Re: The Talk nanobytten October 16 2011, 04:37:39 UTC

Well that was a relief, she was glad he wasn't scared off. She was even flattered that he'd consider protecting her honor.

"So, maybe someday the sex thing. But for now I'm really enjoying the kissing and having a boyfriend thing."
