for.” she chuckled softly. “to handle them for me when i don’t want to.” she shrugged.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

“that could never happen.”
she reassured quickly, probably too quickly but she didn’t care in that moment. she needed shelby to know that she didn’t feel anything particularly bad about her being there.
“you’re right about the drunk men, but that’s what my male co-workers are +

“i don’t wanna make things uncomfortable for you.” she said with a small frown on her face, letting out a quiet sigh. “it’s not fair for me to be here and make your place of work be somewhere you feel that way, especially when i’m sure there’s enough drunk men that already +

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

“and how do i do that? it’s not exactly like i can text her being like ‘hey, i still have feelings for you. do you have feelings for me?’”
she huffed as she glared at him before scrunching her nose a little. “that’s because you are so down bad for that girl.” she pointed out.

[‎⧽‎‎ ‎‎‎ ‎‎ ‎‎ 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒓 .ᐟ @blurredfates]

“crazy idea… ask her?” parker said with an eyebrow raised, lifting his shoulders in a shrug and leaning back in his seat again. “boys are not at all confusing or complicated, by the way. girls can read us like a book. at least maddie can with me.”

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

“but what if she has moved on? she already said she has a job lined up here, so what if she has some kind of partner here?”
she rambled as she looked at parker with a raised eyebrow before frowning. “shut the hell up, parker. boys are just as confusing!”

[‎⧽‎‎ ‎‎‎ ‎‎ ‎‎ 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒓 .ᐟ @blurredfates]

“okay, have you considered… telling her that?” he asked with a slightly puzzled look on his face. it just seemed that simple to him. “i don’t understand why it has to be so complicated, girls are confusing.”

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

“not. helpful!” she huffed as she glared at him more, frowning as she heard his questions. “because we were moving to opposite ends of the country from each other? and long distance is never fun?” she explained with a sigh.
“yeah, i do still like her.” she admitted.

[‎⧽‎‎ ‎‎‎ ‎‎ ‎‎ 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒓 .ᐟ @blurredfates]

“oh, drama!” he suddenly perked up, leaning forward slightly with his elbows resting on his legs. “what happened? why’d you break up? do you still like her?” a million questions, and none of them were helpful.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

she sat down on the chair and glared at him when he groaned, letting out a sigh.
“a girl i dated in high school who used to also be my best friend before we both moved away for college is now here. back in seattle. at the same time i am.” she explained.

[‎⧽‎‎ ‎‎‎ ‎‎ ‎‎ 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒓 .ᐟ @blurredfates]

groaning slightly, sitting down on a chair and pulling out another one before pointing at it. “sit, talk. what’s wrong?”

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

she huffed and glared at him, glancing down at her hand which he had whacked for a moment.
“everything.” she admitted. “literally everything.”

[‎⧽‎‎ ‎‎‎ ‎‎ ‎‎ 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒌𝒆𝒓 .ᐟ @blurredfates]

whacking her hand away, “what is your problem?”

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

she’s flicking @blurredfates ear.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

when that’s exactly what she wanted to do in that moment.
“you shouldn’t feel like you can’t go here because one of your ghosts works here.” she pointed out with a shrug.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

maeve chuckled quietly and nodded in understanding, trying to fight the frown that was threatening to appear on her face when shelby suggested leaving and finding another bar to go to.
“no … don’t do that?” she said, trying not to sound like she was begging shelby to stay, +

[‎‎‎ ‎‎‎‎ ‎⧽‎‎ ‎‎‎ ‎‎ ‎‎ 𝒔𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒃𝒚. ⋆˙⟡ @artistwits]

“bingo.” shelby said with a little laugh, nodding her head and glancing over at the door that lead back to the main part of the bar, “but i can— i’ll find another bar. i don’t wanna make you feel any type of way by being here, i’m sure seattle has a million more bars +

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

😒.

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

* ( so ) much better!

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

sorry.
you’re welcome!

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

that’s not a friendly way to talk to a petty customer?
dafuq.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

whatever.

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

great— thanks!

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

…
coming right up.

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

mhm. it would be problem solved.
except I don’t have any? hint. hint.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

problem solved.
you’re welcome!

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

hm.
fries and mayo are an elite snack.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

yes, i do. but now i introduce you to some sauce.
predicament solved.

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

valid * ( however ) they give me indigestion because they’re too dry.
you see my predicament??

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

okay, fair point.
the fries probably have less grease though.

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

I’m hungry? I’ve been studying and training all day and * ( just ) knocked off.
so I didn’t want to go home and cook. it was a toss up between the burger or fries.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

if you’re worried about having a heart attack from grease consumption, just don’t eat the burger??

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

a bar very close to grey sloan.
I guess if I have a heart attack from grease consumption, I’m close :)

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

… fine, i guess that’s valid.
what do you expect? it’s a burger from a bar.

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

I was eating a burger and the sauce went down my chin. I didn’t want it to run to my shirt and ruin it?
also, those things are greasy.

[𝒎𝒂̲𝒆̲𝒗𝒆. @resolvedtunes]

they haven’t, you’re right.
what emergency could you have possibly been experiencing to not look to see if a napkin has already been used before using it yourself?

[𝒃𝒂𝒊𝒍͟𝒆͟𝒚. @roguishlegacy]

well, I don’t think anyone has ever been called pretty as an insult?
listen, if there’s a free napkin in an emergency situation?
