𝐋𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: mickey’s diner .
she practically 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙥𝙩 across the counter out of sheer excitement when roman offered her a way out from her shift at the vault . sure , she technically could’ve just walked out the door without an excuse … but that would come with guilt and who likes to feel guilty ? now she has a motive : going to her favorite diner with one of her closest friends . maybe not the best motive , but a motive all the same . besides , everyone was aware that the owner of the record store wasn’t very good at giving his employees a hard time . he’s the coolest boss ever , ziggy would constantly exclaim when talking about eduardo — the image of a 𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐝𝐚𝐝 taking shape inside her mind whenever she saw him walking through the music - filled aisles . crooked glasses , scruffy beard , a cigarette always in hand or hanging from the left corner of his mouth . oh god , was eduardo … 𝗵𝗼𝘁 ?
now sitting at one of the diner’s booths any sensation of 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲 is quick to leave her body ; a strawberry milkshake appearing before her next to a plate full of crispy fries . “ am i dead , roman ? ” she looks at the other with a nearly 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘦 , wasting no time in grabbing a fry and sticking it in her mouth . a delighted mmmmm is her automatic response ; throwing her head against the back of her seat . “ yeah , i think i’ve died and gone to 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣 . ” all of the slapsticks are followed by a quick lean across the table , nearly knocking everything in her wake . “ quick ! check my pulse . ”
having milkshakes on a day like this was a must , but there was nothing sadder than going out for a milkshake alone. his first thought had been to invite ziggy --- this was their thing , after all. on days they hung out , whether it was after meeting with the club or they had simply wanted to hang out in general , they almost always stopped to get themselves milkshakes. his go - to was any diner that served them with a cherry on top and , unfortunately for ziggy , he always tried to steal the cherry from hers --- but he knew she was at work so he thought better of it. he tried shooting vedette a text , there was no answer. another was sent to teddy --- he was busy. charelotte was working on a project. he didn’t even think to send an offer to ollie , not because he didn’t want to but because he knew there was a 90% chance that she was with alix. and he wasn’t about to intrude on her precious boyfriend time. he did that enough as it was , with him dragging her out when delta threw parties ( which was probably more often than she liked ). roman wanted that milkshake , dammit.
so he caved and led himself over to the vinyl vault.
now here they were , seated at a booth , laughing too hard at something that wasn’t even that funny. but ziggy kept laughing so he kept laughing which led her to laugh some more. . . the cycle was never - ending. the staff and everyone else probably thought they were crazy. which , honestly yea , they were.
“ dead? i’d believe it , you look ghostly. ” when her head fell back , he seized the opportunity to steal one of her fries. he popped it into his mouth quickly but he wasn’t quick enough to hide it so he offered a passive smile. his milkshake almost fell over as her elbow bumped it , one look up from the drink revealed a very crazed ziggy almost in his face. instead of checking her pulse like she asked , he swiped some of the whip cream from his milkshake and quickly swiped it across her nose. now he was laughing again , “ is this your heaven? i feel so special being a part of it. ”
