Three little one-shots from my Alteration-AU

ShootingStars

Dave worked the nightshift. Right now, he was technically on break, but was guarding the entrance from the roof anyway. This night was just too beautiful to be spending it inside. He had never seen so many shooting stars. He was glad that the place he worked at was at the very outskirts of the city where the light pollution wasn't as bad.

He was wondering if Ellie, Charles and Henry got a chance to watch the stars too. They had the means to go to a place where they could see them clearly, but he didn't know if they were done with their mission yet.

"Hey Dave"

"Rupert?" he turned around at the sound of the voice and the door opening.

The soldier waved a bit awkwardly as the door shut behind him again "Others said you were up here"

"Yeah. I didn't want to miss this", he smiled as Rupert walked up to stand beside him "Who knows if we ever get the chance to see another meteor shower"

"It is very pretty...", Rupert rubbed the back of his neck with a faint red tint on his face "Not as pretty as you though..."

Daves' smile grew wider "Aw... thank you"

"A-and also... You're my star so I don't care if I never get to see another meteor shower" he now had his arms crossed and a very red face.

"That is really sweet" Some might laugh about Ruperts' sometimes very awkward and cheesy flirting but to Dave it was just another reason to love him. He hugged his boyfriend gave him a gentle kiss on the lips "You're my star too"

Nice and sweet

Dave knew something was up the moment Rupert stepped through the door. He looked... bothered by something and... uncertain? And Rupert was a confident person. The only person who seemed to be able to be more confident was Ellie.

"Something wrong?"

It took the soldier a moment to answer "No..." He took of his jacket before turning to face his boyfriend, whos' face clearly said 'I don't believe that for a second'. "... Do you think my flirting is cringey?"

Dave had to chuckle at that "It sometimes is. But I love it"

"... You're not only saying it because your nice... and just love me because I helped save you from the Toppats...?"

The brunet blinked, needing a moment to process that. Then he shook his head and cupped the other mans' face with both his hands. "First of all... If I would fall in love with the person who saved me, I would be with Henry. Second, I'm always telling you if something you do bothers me. Did I ever tell you that I don't want you to flirt with me? What makes you think that all of a sudden?"

"Just some idiots talking...", Rupert pulled him into a hug and rested his head on his boyfriends' shoulder "I'm just being stupid"

"Even you need to be that sometimes..."

---

Ellie and June were spending their evening at the bar. Previously Rupert had been with them but left because he wanted to spend some time with Dave before he needed to go to work.

"I'm still so close, June..."

"I know what you mean", the blond swirled the drink in her glass "But it wouldn't help with those guys..."
