(How should we start it?))
((Maybe just the next time Brenn and Nico are hanging out to plan more stuff??))
((Yeah, that sounds good))
((Okay I’ll go ahead and write it up real quick then))
((oki doks!))
They’d agreed to just meet up at Nico’s apartment that day, during the hours that Nico knew Vic wouldn’t be home, so there wasn’t any chance of them getting seen together, or their plans getting overheard. That seemed like the safest thing to do right now. When Brenn got there, Nico had quickly opened the door, ushering him inside.
"So, what's up?" Brenn said, playing with Sadie, gently scratching the dog behind her ears, "Did you have a plan or something in mind?" He sat down on the ground next to dog, and looked up at Nico, "Well?"
“Not really anything specific, I just figured we should kinda figure out how much we want to be seen together and stuff. Vic was like this close to beating me up the other day. So I think we want to plan this well.”
"That's fair." Brenn said with a shrug, "So maybe we just like do it every so often and stuff then, like again, sort of obvious, but not really?" He said with a sigh, "This is so complicated. . .I swear to god. . ."
“Yeah…we really got ourselves into a big mess..” he sighed. “If we make it too obvious and it happens too often, Vic might just choke me to death so we need to be a bit more careful.”
Brenn nodded, "Maybe just like once a week, or once every other week or something. And like when we're around each other, we sort of just act like we don't like each other at all, or like the other doesn't exist, you know? Would that even work?"
“Yeah I think that’d work. Just acting as we normally do I guess. And I think once a week would be good.”
"Uh huh, sounds easy enough." Brenn said, still playing with Sadie a bit, but mainly focusing his attention on Nico, "Well uhm, since I'm here now, what should we do? Should we do our weekly mess with everyone's head gig, or should I leave now before Victor kills me?"
“It’s really up to you, my schedule’s completely free today so I’m up for whatever.” Nico said with a shrug.
Brenn shrugged, "I don't care to be honest, I really just want to chill with Sadie." Who while he had been trying to decide had made herself more comfortable next to Brenn.
“Then maybe we can just stay here?” Nico offered, looking over at Brenn from where he sat on the couch.
"Okay, that sounds good." He said quietly, sort of spacing out at this point, "Any shows you'd like to watch or something?"
“Hm not really..wanna just channel surf until we find something good?” He asked, hunting for the remote.
"Yeah, sounds cool!" He said with yet another shrug, still cuddling Sadie. "This is nice." He said, leaning his head against the couch.
“Really? What happened to you hating my guts?” He teased, and finally having found the remote buried under some couch cushions, turned the tv on.
Brenn rolled his eyes, "Well, uhm. . .I only hate your guts on certain days. . .Or really not at all at this point. I guess I sort just misjudged you at first. You're a pretty cool person. You know?'
He chuckled softly at Brenn’s explanation. “Guess I’ll have to work harder to be annoying then.” He said, grinning over his shoulder so Brenn would know he was joking.
Brenn sighed, rolling his eyes, "And now I dislike you again. . ." He said with a groan, smirking a little bit. "What's on?" He said looking over at the man, "I'mmmmm booooorredddd."
“Oh my god I’m looking, chill!” He rolled his eyes, throwing a pillow from the couch at Brenn. “Give me more than two seconds, c’mon dude.”
Brenn grumbled a little bit, the pillow hitting his head, then throwing it back. "Fineeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, hurry up though. I don't have all day man. Hurry it up."
