Looping fic AU - chapter 7 preview
“What are you two doing?” Drift sounds from behind as they both tense up as Pyro quickly removes their hands from under Avid’s shirt.
“Oh- uh- Drift- we were- I mean- we-”
Avid kept stammering as Pyro sits down next to him on the couch and puts his arms over the little alchemist. “Sorry, I thought that you would be gone longer.” Pyro’s response was calm contrary to the voice screaming in his head telling him to just leave and die of embarrassment.
“I was just out to get some honey. Abolish left to check on something but he’ll be back.” Drift looks at the two noticing Avid has another shirt on and that Pyro doesn’t have his on at all. “Pyro, can you at least put your jacket back on. I know that you put your shirt on Avid. I have no idea why that is on him in the first place, but could you cover up some while I am home.?”
“Of course, I’m sorry Drift. Rather rude of me to expose myself in front of a lady such as yourself.” Pyro gets off the couch as he picks up the suit jacket to put it on and decides to fasten it so he can hide his chest for Drift.
“It is more of what you were getting ready to do with my house mate. He isn’t the most mentally stable at the moment. Accusing Scott of murder in front of everyone was not okay Avid. You really should apologize to him.” Drift’s Scolding made Avid feel as if he is about to cry.
“I- I did apologize. H- he seems to have forgiven me.” Avid’s voice was uneven as he has tears running down his face remembering the original time. Scott was terrifying but at the very least. Nothing that he ever could have done would have prevented Avid from falling in love with him.
