NDrabble : Shoulder to Shoulder

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

With apologies to HG. I'm rereading Strange Days Indeed for the umpteenth time and this mutated from a moment in that. It's also stretched and battered into shape from smth else I attempted to write long ago.

My first official drabble in Pros



Shoulder to Shoulder

They stood, shoulder to bare shoulder at the kitchen doorway. Doyle chewed his lip. Bodie noticed.

"What?"

"Nothing."

"Come on, sunshine. Spill."

Bodie's indulgent tone made Doyle smile. He studied their bare feet on the lino.

"It's nothing... y'know, lovey-dovey."

"Be still my heart, then."

Doyle turned enough to cuff him. "Oi! I come off an undercover where I've been stuck with a bunch of bran-eating weirdos for five days, and all you've got in for me are eggs, and salt and vinegar crisps!"

"Bought you soft loo roll, what more do you want?"

Doyle bit the nearest shoulder.

ROFL! Eggs and salt and vinegar crisps!!! I'd be pissed off too.

Thanks for sharing.
