Timing
13. bringing sexy back.
There were tines when Benton Fraser could still surprise Ray Vecchio. This wasn't a bad thing, it kept things interesting. However Fraser brought these things up at the weirdest times. Like during a shoot-out for example.
“Ray?” Fraser asked as bullets flew past their eats.
“Yeah, Benny?” Ray asked, returning fire.
“Am I sexy?”
“What kind of a question is that?”
“An honest one, Ray,” Fraser replied, ducking.
“Yeah, you're sexy, or haven't you noticed the hundreds of women who fall at your feet?”
“They don't fall at my feet literally, Ray.”
“The point is they find you sexy.” Ray fired over another few shots.
“They find me sexually attractive?”
“Yeah, it's the uniform,” Ray replied, giving Fraser a look over, he was wearing the brown today.
“So, if I didn't wear the uniform...!
“If you were naked they'd still think you were sexy.” Ray really didn't need to start picturing Fraser naked during a shoot-out.
“So my clothing isn't the reason they find me sexy?”
“No. You just...look good.”
“But is that sexy, Ray?” Fraser asked, licking his lower lip.
“Why do you want to know anyway?”
“I was reading some of your sister's magazines.”
“You read one of Frannie's trashy magazines?”
“They;re very enlightening, Ray.”
“Yeah, about what lipstick will get men to like you.” Ray listened for the sound of the perp reloading.
“What lipstick is that, Ray?”
“I don;t know, Benny. Do I look like a women's magazine?”
“No, Ray, you look sexy.”
Ray's hand went limp as he paused. “You think I look sexy?”
Fraser nodded. “Very much so, yes.”
“Well, you look sexy, Benny.”
“Even without lipstick?”
Ray hadn't noticed the shooting had stopped. “You do not need to wear lipstick for me to find you sexy.”
“That's a relief, Ray, because I wasn't sure what shade to choose anyway.”
“Besides when we kiss I don't want to have to explain the lipstick stains.”
“When do you think that will be, Ray?”
“I don't know...now.” Ray said leaning forward
“Mmmmm.” Fraser replied as Ray kissed him.
Kissing behind a car covered in bullet holes, that was a surprise but one that Ray couldn't complain about. Although the perp was no doubt running away. He just hoped Lieutenant Welsh wouldn't mind. This was the third perp he'd missed this week.
