“So, her name’s Diana and she’s my fur baby. No, the hubby doesn’t know about her yet, but he will deal. If anything, he owes me this little ball of fluffy happiness.” Giselle explained as she adjusted the diamond collar on the kitten’s neck. “Isn’t she the cutest? Look at her little paws!”

“I’m just happy it’s not a dog. They can be so annoying and needy,” he commented, eyeing the cat curiously. He couldn’t tell if she was side-eyeing him or assessing him. “Is that an actual diamond collar? You are the bougiest person I know Giselle, Jesus Christ.” He couldn’t help but chuckle as he reached out to touch the collar. “Why’d you give her such an insufferable white sorority girl name though? You should’ve named her Mittens. Or Periwinkle.”

He smiled “ I am sure she can find one somewhere in town, and I don’t know many girls who’d turn down a bottle of wine!” He replied before turning a deep shade of red. “ Well there is this really expensive art set they doing at the moment, I would love that, It’s pricey but they are doing a deal at the moment, you can get it all for a lower price if you buy everything together.” He replied smiling.  “ Apart from that’s it’s just things like clothes, oh I want this cool travel mug I saw”

“Wine it is then. Some sort of mid-shelf red wine will do.” TJ couldn’t help but smile at the shade of red that came across Byron’s cheeks. “You’re cute when you blush,” he added as he continued to think through some potential gifts. “What kind of clothes? Posh sweater and shirt sets?” he teased. “Travel mugs and clothes sound way more in my budget than those art sets. We’re not all celebrated cartoonists.”

Byron laughed. “ God no, I would never watch that rubbish, but because I was looking at merch for the Avengers, some of the stuff for the Bachelor came up in the suggestions box” He replied rolling his eyes.  “Okay number one I wasn’t going  to charge you, but I don’t do frames so you’d have to take care of that.” He replied smirking.  “ Number two I don’t doodle!”  He replied as he shook his head. “Well, could you see her in something like that?”

“I can buy a frame or whatever. I’m sure I can find that somewhere. Maybe she’ll appreciate a nice bottle of wine,” he considered. “I’m more concerned in what I want to see you in, Byron.” He paused. “Or rather... what I want to see you out of.” TJ flashed the cartoonist a coy smile. “But seriously what kind of things would you want for Christmas?”

“Well every girl is different,” she said. “But if you’re just trying to get something simple, you could maybe get her some candy, candles, a mug, some fuzzy socks or slippers, or maybe a few gift cards or something.” 

“And none of that comes off too impersonal?” he asked with the smallest hint of concern in his voice. “-and candle smells are always so dramatic. It’s always something like Winter Peppermint Pop or some obscure shit.”

charmingcartoonist‌:

“ Well there is The bachelor merchandise, I have seen some of that stuff online when I was looking online for something,  you could make something or get her something she’s been talking about for a while. I could also draw a picture for her, I won’t charge you for it this time,  you’d just have to look for a Frame. Oh and anything to keep her warm thats fun as well, girls like that kind of thing I think.”

“What kind of Bachelor Nation stuff were you looking for online?” he asked teasingly, offering Byron a cheeky grin. “You were going to charge this cute face? That’s a shame. But I think she’ll appreciate a little picture. Maybe you can doodle something on the card I’ll get her,” he offered. “I think warm seems to be a theme here. Do you think she’ll like an adult onesie or something? Those are warm.”

Byron sat listening to him trying his best not to laugh, those were some of his favourites things about this time of year, well the secret Santa part anyway. “ Okay a scarf is a good idea, but do you want something anyone could get her or do you want something unique?” He asked looking at him.

“I just want something that doesn’t make me look like a bad boss. Like something festive and nice so it looks like I used the upper limit of the budget but also a little personalized. I just don’t want it to be completely off base and people talk shit,” he admitted nonchalantly. “Got any ideas?”

“Well it’s secret Santa so it’s not like you have to prove that you know her as a person so somethin’ casual like a vanilla scented candle, some gluten-free gummy bears and a teddy bear or maybe even some cheap fluffy slippers and a travel blanket, or a coffee mug filled with candy and some fluffy socks. You really don’t gotta overthink it.” Dylan threw out a few suggestions with a shrug.

“Yeah but I’m her boss so I don’t want to look completely out of touch or make it seem like I put in minimal effort.” TJ started to slowly nod as she listed the ideas, liking the sound of each of them. “Why gluten free gummy bears?” he asked, scrunching up his nose in confusion and trying to think back if the girl in question was gluten free. He knew at least one of the employees was. “The fluffy socks sounds like a good idea though. That and a mug... winter-y shit, yeah?”

“I can’t afford to get arrested again, not during the holidays at least, so we should probably do something perfectly normal tonight. What’s fun but also legal?“

“Well weed is legal,” he said matter-of-factly, offering her a knowing look as the words left his lips. “But we can hit up a hookah lounge or something. Where can we go that minimizes your chances of getting arrested? You on parole or something?” he asked curiously.

“My least favorite thing about the holiday season is the obligatory potlucks and Secret Santa shenanigans at work,” he muttered, his frustration evident as he started to look through a random assortment of gifts. “What would you get for a woman in her early to mid 20s? I don’t know much about her... I think I saw her wear a scarf a few times and she watches The Bachelor way too fucking much.”

“Okay so, no grammy nominations this year for me but next year? I’m setting my sights on it, I’m telling you, it’s gonna happen. Speaking that shit into existence,” Jordan said out loud as he scrolled through his phone. He was on his third cup of coffee after catching a red eye in from LAX and only slightly annoyed that his chart toppers weren’t getting recognition. “Alright I need to switch out this coffee for a beer ASAP.”

TJ couldn’t help but offer his friend a small grin. “And I’ll be right there by your side popping bottles at the Grammy after party and trying to spit game at Tinashe.” He perked up at the sound of the beer and shot Jordan a knowing look. “I think there’s a pub down the street and I think it’s happy hour. Plus I have some stories from Bolivia to tell you.”

Jensen: Amanda's birthday is this Saturday. I would like to invite you to come to our house and hang out for the evening.

Jensen: Please don't feel obligated to get something for her and I will be providing the dishes.

TJ: What size Real Madrid jersey is she

“Ay, ay, dude do you see how many white people are in this bar right now?” Kareem spoke in TJ’s ear as he wrapped him up in a bear hug and pulled him off after having to fight off one of the guys friends. “If I knew you were gonna get all wild I wouldn’t have let you had that last rum.” He pulled TJ by the door and pushed it open, only letting him go while they were outside. “You fucking crazy man? A bar fight? What fucking reality show do you think you’re on?”

TJ tried to push past Kareem, having tunnel vision for the guy but being overpowered to the outside. He stumbled for a bit as he tried to maintain a vertical base, glaring at Kareem. “You really must have me fucked up. I’m not that little kid you fucking babysit so you’re gonna need to not talk to me like that,” he shot back with a raised voice. “Sorry I don’t let dumb fucks try me in a bar.”

“what was any of that about, anyways? you two wanted to measure your dicks or something?” it was easy for johnny to check out of conversations that weren’t about him or his interests, so naturally what lead up to the fight wasn’t something he was keeping tabs on. “seems like you’re a fan yourself. how much have you had to drink tonight?” the moment he said it, he did feel like gagging. he sounded like a cop. “i thought stoners were supposed to be above the alcoholic lifestyle.”

“Because his dumb ass had a smart mouth and didn’t know how to back it up,” he explained simply. He honestly had no idea how it started. One thing had led to another and he had a tendency to blackout when he angrily acted on his impulses. “A few,” he answered skeptically but it was evident that he had more than a few. “Just because I work at a dispensary doesn’t make me a stoner and I can do live whatever lifestyle I want. I’m grown.”

“I don’t know what it’s called. It has a thing of ribs on it. I don’t see it on the menu though.” Jensen explained. Unfortunately the worker told him it was no longer available. “Oh… What was that thing you told me not to get? Give me the thing with the fish on it. If it has onion or lettuce on it, take it off.” 

When Jensen got his sandwich he lifted up the bun to look at the odd fish patty they put on it. “What is this?” He asked as he broke it apart and sniffed it.  His hands gooped up with the sauce that was on it which made him shiver. Instead of eating the sandwich, he went to the fries and decided to ignore the sandwich. 

TJ narrowed his eyes at the other for ordering the fish filet but handed over his debit card to the employee anyway. At the table he was happily engrossed in his feast of nuggets, fries and a McFlurry. Dipping his fry in the ice cream he gave the other a knowing look. “I told you not to get it,” he shrugged. “It’s supposed to be fish.” He couldn’t help but almost gag at the tartar sauce on the other’s fingers. “Did you get raised in a cult or something? How the fuck do you not know anything about the McDonalds menu? I watched two episodes of Wild Wild Country. Your secret is safe with me.”

Byron nodded and looked at him. “ It is, I will have some cider, please.” He replied as he looked at him smiling.

TJ nodded and quickly ordered a cider from the bartender, turning towards Byron. “So you were mentioning being a cartoonist? Does that mean you can draw Snoopy on this bar napkin?” he teased

The feeling of Clem’s mouth around him drove TJ into pure ecstasy, throwing his head back as his fingers gripped into the other’s hair even more. He pushed down on his head, teeth gritted as he let a small grunt slip from his lips. It was obvious that the runway wasn’t the only thing that Clem knew how to work.

“I understand that. I grew up in Dallas, but outside the city, it’s fairly suburban. Boston may be small as far as land goes, but it’s a heavily populated area. Do you feel at home here in Portland?”

“True but living in Boston and going to college there are two different things,” he chuckled as he turned a corner. “I could never live there.” He mused over the question for a few moments, unsure of how to answer. “I guess? It definitely has a chill vibe but I had no sort of network here so it’s hard starting from scratch. Like I didn’t realize how easy it would be to lose all of those connections from college.”
