Inbox me a “♡” (no peeking!) and I will randomly generate a number between 1 and 20 and write you a drabble. Mixture of unadulterated tooth-rotting fluff, potentially nfsw and “flangst” (fluffy angst) prompts!
Michael would be the first to admit it - he was a bit of a jealous, maybe even slightly possessive person. Not in the creepy, ‘you can’t hang out with them’ type of way, but in the, ‘you dance too close to my girl at the club and there’s going to be a problem’ type of way.
Except, in this case, maybe not so much girl as it was guy. And maybe not so much guy as it was demon.
Michael’s frown deepens when he watches the man lean in closer to Ryan, eyes narrowing and fingers tightening around the glass in his hand. Ryan isn’t his boyfriend. Ryan isn’t his — his anything, really. Other than his coworker. Michael to Ryan on the other hand…Michael flushes a little at the thought, and raises the glass to his lips, drinking down the beer with one, two deep gulps before lowering the half-empty glass to the table again. It’s stupid to feel jealous, for a lot of different reasons. Ryan isn’t his significant other. Ryan is, also, apparently, in love with Michael. And Michael pretty much kiiiiiind of turned Ryan down when he confessed to it, too.
So it’s stupid, really, and no matter what Michael does, he’s gonna like like the asshole in this situation, but even more-so if he steps between the two men like a jealous boyfriend trying to force the other guy to back off.
It doesn’t mean Michael has to like it, though, and he’s two seconds away from throwing all caution to the wind and shoving his way in the middle of the two men at the bar when he sees the other guys gesturing towards him, already heading out the door, and Michael heaves a sigh of relief. Thank fuck.
"Hey Ryan!" He calls out loudly, a brash and confident thing, and feels smug when both Ryan and the stranger’s heads turn to look at him. Michael jerks his own towards the door. "Time to get goin’, big guy."
Michael’s eyes slide over to the man next to Ryan, and they narrow as his gaze goes dark, and threatening, and Michael refuses to break eye-contact as he tries to silently intimidate the man into submission until Ryan walks over and forces him to look away.
"C’mon," Michael grumbles, irritated. "Let’s go."
He was so fucking stupid.
