Wrench- Fixer

You've been a Fixer for a while now, since you got out of college and realised the world isn't worth working for, so you choose to use technology to your advantage and work the world around you instead.

The last couple of months, you've been working with DedSec, helping them take down some hipster wannabe called Dusan Nemec, whilst also getting paid on the side for helping them out.

They reached out to you and you accepted. Simple right?
Wrong.
You accidentally let your emotions get in the way, you forgot about the money and began helping for good, as well as getting attached to the group of misfits along the way.

But now it's all over, and it's time to leave and head to another city for another contract.

"It's been good working with you all and I'm glad I could help" You announce to the group as you say your goodbyes, walking outside of their HQ and down the street, feeling a longing of wanting to go back to them.

"Wait!" A robotic voice calls from down the street, you stop and turn around, to find Wrench sprinting after you.

He catches up and doubles over, breathing heavily. You cross your arms and wait, but a smile tilts your lips at his gesture.

"Shit, I'm so unfit" He pants.

"I think you're pretty fit" You mumble with a smile, but slap your hand over your mouth after saying it out loud.

"I'm gonna cut the bullshit because I don't have the lung capacity right now; I think you should stay with DedSec" Wrench says, his voice laced with hope.

Your smile slowly drops and you sigh, shaking your head. "I can't"

"Why? Our jobs pay out and you'll be doing good for the world, isn't that what everyone wants?" Wrench asks, stepping closer to you.

You bite your lip and look away, watching people as they live their daily lives. "I'm not redeemable, I don't do good, I do whatever pays best, come on Hammer, you that" You say earnestly, using the nickname you have Wrench.

"Then let me come with you" He bursts out, opening his hands in a pleading gesture.

Your eyes widen as you think of a future where you and Wrench work together, visiting a new city every few months, having fun and getting paid, the awesome sex-
Wait, what?

"No, absolutely not" You frown, shaking your head and turning on your heel, walking away.

Surprise, surprise, Wrench follows like a lost puppy.

"Look," you begin, stopping yet again and giving him a watery smile, "it's been a good couple of months, and I've got quite attached to your dumb ass, but I'm not like you, DedSec needs people like you to protect this city from the rich assholes. If things where different, I would join in a heartbeat, but they're not, I'm still me and you're you, under that tough exterior is a man who secretly gives a shit about everything".

Wrench's shoulders slump as he knows he's lost, but he nods anyway. "Promise you ll keep in touch, I'm only a text away" He murmurs, reaching out and grabbing your hand.

You nod, and lean forward, wrapping your arms around his neck and giving him a hug.

"I'll see you again Hammer" You sadly say as he squeezes you back.

You let go and strut away, walking as fast as possible and turning the corner before he can see your upset expression.

Hammer: miss you already

You smile as you look at the text, forcing your legs to keep walking.
