Chapter Text
Another boring ass shift. Dave promised to buy the both of them dinner after though. Currently he was..
“What the hell are you doing?”
“I’m searching for rocks!”
“Rocks?”
“Yeah, like in the dirt. Uhhhhh quartz?”
“What would you need that for?”
“Makin’ a thing for you” Dave smiled looking up at Mike, his hands still searching through the dirt.
“What kind of thing?”
“You’re asking way too many questions, its a surprise anyways” he said slightly annoyed, “I’ll be done with it tomorrow”
“Uh okay” he was bad with surprises and change was. Uncomfortable for him to say the least. Dave was the polar opposite, sporadic and always doing something different. Mike really liked that about him.
4 hours of standing around. Doing nothing but waiting. Sometimes he wished something wild would happen just to have something to do. He was scared to do his own things. To stop following rules. So he made a routine for himself. He was alot different before the aliens surprisingly, he did shit that got him in trouble and hurt. He had a huge scar running down his face from an accident involving him drinking and driving a motorcycle off a roof. It wasn’t even something Dave would do.
2 more hours pass. 30 minutes until their shift was over. Dave was standing stiff anxiously tapping on his legs waiting for it to end.
“Hey,” Dave jumped at the sudden noise, “did you have an idea what we’re gonna get for dinner?”
“Oh yeah is. Is takeout okay and then we can jus-just hang out at my house because I bought- I bought some dvds!! There were a bunch of cool looking action movies in the clearance bin and I wanted to watch those with you and also bought some drinks the other night and yeah!”
“That sounds really fun, yeah”
“Awesome!!”
