Vince set the table as Mick put dinner in the oven. He had settled on one of the book marked pages in one of Tommy's Greek/English cookbooks. Sharise should be there any minute, they figured.
They slow danced in the kitchen together. Mick with his hands around Vince's waist, and Vince's hands in Mick's hair. The bumped noses and brushed their lips together.
"Oh baby..." Vince whispered. His eyes fluttered shut as he rested his head against Mick's. "I love you"
"Love you" Mick whispered. He kissed Vince's forehead.
They stood like that for a little longer until there was a knock at the door.
"I'll go get it" Vince muttered against Mick's lips.
They kissed gently and Vince took a deep breath. He wandered over to the door and opened it. He offered a kind smile and invited Sharise and her boyfriend in.
"Whassup little man!" The boyfriend smacked Vince on the back.
"Hey man..." Vince said.
"Where's Tommy?" Sharise asked, hugging Vince.
"He's..." Vince looked behind him at Mick, who was loitering in the kitchen still. "With his... boyfriend?" He looked at Mick. "I think we're just calling it like it is" he shrugged, looking back at Sharise. "Please go have a seat" he shooed them away from the door. He glared at the boyfriend for the 'little man' remark.
"Still can't live by yourself?" The boyfriend sneered.
"This is a nice place, Vin," Sharise said kindly.
"Thank you" Vince looked over at Sharise, then back over at Mick, who was watching the timer on the oven.
"You gotta housewife and everything too?" The boyfriend asked, laughing.
Mick rolled his eyes and walked over, standing with Vince.
"You were at the hospital, right?" Sharise asked, extending her hand.
"I'm sorry we couldn't have met under better circumstances" Mick said kindly.
"Who's the scuzzy little guy?" The boyfriend stuck his hand out.
"Mick" he said, hesitantly shaking his hand.
"Like Jagger?"
"...like Mars..." Mick said, cocking an eyebrow.
"Cool man, I'm Justin" he said.
"Cool..." Mick said under his breath. "Everything's ready" he looked from Sharise to Vince.
"Thanks hon, go sit and give your back a rest" Vince said, he rested his hand on Mick's lower back for a moment. "I got everything else"
Sharise ushered her boyfriend away to go sit at the table, pulling Vince aside.
"You look good, you're glowing" She said.
"Thanks... I'm sorry for not picking up today" Vince said, looking down at the floor. "It's just..." he let out a breath. "Been really hard" his voice sounded forced. "I just... want my baby" he let out a quiet cry.
Sharise hugged him tight, letting a few tears slip down her cheeks.
"I'm so sorry, Vin..." she whispered through tears.
"It's okay, we weren't compatible with each other, I wasn't the best boyfriend" Vince rubbed her back.
They stood there for a few more moments before separating. He kissed her forehead and smiled.
