Can I request a fluff between Neil Lewis and a reader who works at the video store that rivals his Gumshoe store? I think this would be real funny lmao.
Pairing: neil lewis x reader
Summary: neil lewis comes in before opening to fuel the flames of your fued
“I wish I knew how to quit you,” a voice quotes from the door, it’s the exact timing of the movie going on the TV.
You peer up from the piece of paper you’re using to take stock of the DVDs that had just been returned the night before. Neil Lewis is walking over to you. The sly bastard grinning the whole way over.
“Are you setting up for a cowboy week? Or do you just like to watch Brokeback Mountain casually?” Neil pokes, he already had his own deal on cowboy movies starting today which completely ruined your plans.
“Brokeback Mountain is a great movie,” you reply, a little too snappy.
You take a moment for calm yourself down internally before trying to taunt Neil now.
“How’s business going?” You ask, sugarcoating your voice a slight amount.
“Pretty good. How about you?” Neil says, placing a hand on the register.
“Good, we’re actually just preparing for a deal on vampire movies soon,” you smirk.
It’s a small win that you got to do the vampire deal and movie marathon before Neil got to, especially since you know he was planning one out a month in advance. Watching his face jump into a panicked expression for a couple seconds at your words was a reward for your thwarted efforts this week.
“Oh, that’s interesting. Don't you think it’s a little too early for that,” Neil comments, gritting his teeth.
“Nope,” you smile, “I think it’s never too early to get into the Halloween spirit. Personally I think it’s about time everyone does, it’s the end of August.”
Neil just smiles bitterly at you, and you return the gesture. What goes around comes around, and Neil stole your cowboy idea, so you must steal his vampire deal week. He should understand, because he started this.
“Well my store is just about to open, have a good day,” Neil sighs, starting to edge his way to the door.
“You too,” you say, waving goodbye.
Neil’s giving you these sad eyes that almost make you feel bad for him, you don’t know why. You bite your lip, tossing an idea over in your head a little bit. Should you invite Neil to the vampire showing tonight? A friendly gesture to blow out some of the extra flames sparked recently in your petty feud… Why not?
“Neil!” you shout out, just before he opens the door. His head perks up to look at you. “Do you want to come to the vampire movie marathon tonight… It starts just after Gumshoe closes.”
“Sure. Why not?” Neil says, a small smile coming over his face before he finally does leave.
Hopefully he actually takes on your offer, but knowing Neil he wouldn’t miss it for the world.
