A Talk

A solid 5 minutes past before the trio finally pulled up to outside of the apartment complex.

"You know what apartment it is right?" Rory asks Jean as he pulls the convertible into a parking space right up front.

"Course I do, ain't my first visit" Jean says; grabbing her duffle bag and hopping over outside of the car.

"Ok cool, I got to do something real quick and Myles is going to help me so you can go ahead and head inside" Rory says; much to the confusion of Myles.

"What do you mean?" Myles asks, giving his friend the side eye.

"I'll show you" Rory says; backing out of the parking spot and taking a sharp turn back out onto the road.

"Hey! What the hell Rory!?" Myles asks both irritated and confused. "I thought we were going to hang out with-"

"Oh is that what you call hanging out?" Rory says with a mixture of amusement and questioning. "Staying damn near dead silent, doing your best not to eat the eye candy?"

"That's-"

"Myles don't lie to me; I'm not stupid and I'm far past giving you the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the sort of things" Rory cuts off his friend; giving him a knowing look.

Myles lets out a heavy sigh of resignation; no point to denying it he supposed. Rory; despite spending most of his time stealing food from fridges that weren't his own. Was far more intelligent than people gave him credit for, of course intelligence wasn't a stat needed to notice exactly what was going on.

"Look I'm sorry; it's just…" Myles pauses. "fuck man they're huge"

"Yeah I noticed but I'm not exactly salivating at the mouth or sitting in stunned silence over them"

"Well what's the problem with that?" Myles asks defensively, obviously not a fan of being called out.

"Well let me put it in a way you'll understand man; Judd might let you get away with staring once but if you do it the entire time. He's going to beat your ass and you're like a brother to me Myles but if he starts beating your ass then I'm going to start beating your ass too and I really don't want to do that" Rory explains and immediately Myles sees his point; and he has to agree. Judd wasn't exactly the most reasonable man in the myriad of friendly acquaintances that Myles had come to know through his friendship with Rory. And that was only worsened by the fact that Judd was a man of great stature.

"Alright, I get what you're saying yeah. But what exactly are you wanting to do about it?" Myles asks.

"Well I wanted to ask if you could be on your best behavior while we hang out or if you just want to have me drop you off somewhere else; choice is yours man"
