[Rachel groans when she’s done, stumbles towards Gabe] I’m sorry. [She hugs him tight, swaying on her feet] I wanna go home.

[Theresa stays quiet, letting them have their moment]

You really sound like it. *he wraps her up immediately, steady and solid tbh, at least for her rn* Yeah, c’mon, let’s get you back. *he rubs her back a little before pulling back enough to hand her a water bottle* This’ll help. I’ll call an uber.

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

I won’t bet you on that cause I don’t wanna lose money. Let’s just get coffee and go back to my place or something. I have a feeling it’s gonna get hella rowdy here soon.

*loooools omg* Gotta love our simple, predictable man. *surprised look her way at the suggestion* You sure? Don’t want to hang out here?

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Not my first rodeo. [Rachel groans, pulls away sluggishly, and stumbles towards the trash can by them where she’s been throwing up. Theresa gets up and pulls her hair out of her face] It’s okay, sweetie, come on.

Worst of it, huh? *winces a little at the stumbles and the barfing, is up in half a second and.. is a little thrown off by Theresa helping, pauses for a second but then grabs some water for her, rubs her back a little, keeps glancing to Theresa once in a while* Hey, it’s all good.

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Can we stay inside? It’s gross out.

*laughs a little* You don’t have to ask me twice. We don’t need any terrible tan lines before the wedding.

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Pretty crazy. [they do want to bond with Gabe, but their attitude is so chill and whatever that it doesn’t show] Rachel likes him, huh?

*snorts at the response cuz he agrees with the pretty crazy* Patrick? *glances over, pause* Or Goose? I mean yeah she likes both of them, she’s good with kids. Babies.

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Theresa is my new friend.

Aw, honey. [Theresa giggles a bit, can’t help it, looks up at Gabe.] Hi, I’m Theresa.

Hey, I’m Gabe, and this is my sister Rachel, I guess? *he’s a bit cautious around dTheresa but does offer her a smile and a hand to shake* Thanks for helping out.

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Want to get like, iced coffee or something? Hot dogs? I need some protein in me.

How about all of the above? Let’s go. *small smile as he knocks their shoulders together* How much you want to be we’ll find Jacob taking a picture of the food?

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Don’t go anywhere. [mumbled into Theresa’s shoulder]

Aw. [she rubs Rachel’s back, shoots Gabe a sheepish look] I’ll leave you guys alone?

[Rachel’s grip on Theresa tightens] No.

*wtf sheepish look back at Theresa* Uh, hey Rach, it’s cool, I’m here. *sits down on her other side*

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Patrick was a surprise. [they heard his unasked question loud and clear.] Best surprise of my life. [big smile to where he’s sitting with fam, playing with Goose prob]

Damn. That’s crazy. *very damn, watching Riley closely ngl*

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

No, I’m fine. I like that one. [she points to the color she wants] What are you doing?

Giving you two because you need some food in your body. *putting two cupcakes on her plate, sends her a playful knowing look* Finding a shady spot to eat, wanna help me?

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

Come on, it’s so fun! [sweating af after, she def played with everyone] You should play next time.

Or you can watch and cheer for Jake with me. *smiling though, actually relieved she’s here, it’s company and someone safe, he feels really on the spot and itching with everyone and their alcohol and the people he doesn’t know omg, spent a lot of the game tucked into a corner and doodling peepson his sketchpad, very determined to stick to her or jacob all day now*

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

I’m fine. [She’s wrapped around Theresa, clinging to her, they’re both sitting on the ground behind one of the food trucks, away from the game day crowd. Theresa is rubbing her back]

I think the worst of it is over. [She’s trying not to look at Gabe, cause omg how awkward]

I hope so, that looked pretty bad. *tbh he’d barely even noticed Theresa until then, does a double take ngl before he flushes a little and turns his attention to his sister, steps in closer, not threatening tbh, he’s her bff but is still judgey* Need me to get you water or anything?

fresh-air-and-fire‌:

[they let the dad thing slide] Not really. Mostly just when they’re family.

Cool, cool. *nods a little, distracted but then the words hit him and he gives Riley a weird look, a bit like wtf how did you decide to have a kid if you don’t even like kids, opens his mouth but then thinks better of it*
