"Are you sure you want to do this?"
Justin looked up from the eggplant he'd been fondling. "Huh? Well, yeah."
Brian tried again. "No, I mean are you *sure*?"
Justin put the eggplant into his shiny red basket with a small huff and a You're a fucking pain in the ass roll of the eyes. "Even Michael said it was good, Brian," he said patiently. "And he still thinks Captain Crunch is part of a complete, balanced breakfast. Shit, I want some asparagus." He continued down the produce section, Brian's whining temporarily forgotten as he picked over the asparagus bunches with a practiced eye. Actually, he didn't know what the hell he was looking at, really, but then he vaguely remembered Alton Brown saying something about closed shoots and thinner stalks, so that's what he looked for.
"Mikey'll say anything to have Ben's dick up his ass," Brian complained, following behind like a petulant 31 year-old. "Tofu isn't even part of the four food groups. It's soylent green."
Justin finally found what he thought was a good bunch of asparagus spears and placed them next to the eggplant. "First of all, tofu is made from soy beans, and ew," he said, scowling, "I so did NOT need the visual of Michael and Ben sex." He gave his lover a pointed look. "I find your lack of faith disturbing."
Brian's eyebrow shot up. "Oh God," he groaned. "Tell me you didn't say that." He suddenly found great interest in the ceiling lights. "And to think, I've been fucking a geek all this time," he sighed, shaking his head.
To his annoyance, Justin snickered. "If I'm such a geek, how come you knew where the quote came from?" he teased.
Brian's head came down with snap. "Because I was fucking alive when the movie first came out, that's why," he shot back. "You weren't even a tadpole in your daddy's jizz."
Both men shuddered, not wanting to think about Craig Taylor and semen. "Oh, you fucking suck," Justin said, grimacing. "Just for that, I'm making enough tofu and eggplant casserole to last us for *days*."
Brian sighed again. The goddamn things he did for love.
THE END
whimper
I have decided you are all hediously cruel to make people guess. :(( I cannot guess. I do not differentiate between writing styles, I just differentiate between good and bad, and since all stories are -good-...
:((
sniff. Nightsister?

Posted by: Viola on November 1, 2003 10:07 PMhmmm, Nightsister.
Very well done Brian and Justin dynamic. The teasing, the pace feel like Nightsister.
This line cracked me up
'"Tofu isn't even part of the four food groups. It's soylent green."'
