handyman boyfriend

1.

Andrea was going over to her son's house to drop off some homemade tacos when she noticed someone doing something underneath his sink. She guessed that the mystery man was unaware that she had a key to the condo because of what he said. "Carlos, I didn't think you would be home until later." Andrea recognized that voice as that of her son's friend TK and chose to identify herself to him. "He won't be TK that's why I chose to come over right now, I thought the house would be empty. It's Andrea by the way." She had to stifle a laugh when she heard him bang his head on the pipe under the sink.

"Andrea hi, I was just fixing the sink so Carlos won't spray himself in the face again when he turns it on." She decided to express her surprise and also mess with him just a little. She was well aware that TK had no idea that Andrea and Gabriel knew that TK was dating their son. "I had no idea that you knew how to do stuff like that. And how would you know if Carlos sprayed himself in the face when he turned on the sink or not?"

Gabriel had a long day at work and just wanted to relax next to his wife in their bed. He saw what looked like long legs coming from inside their attic in the corner of his eye which confused him. "Who are you and what are you doing in my house?" He heard the person let out a loud curse when their foot slipped off the ladder which made him recognize who was inside his attic. "Hijo? What are you doing in my attic?" He waited to ask him that until he saw TK get his footing right on the ladder again.

"Andrea asked me to come over and take a look at the wiring for your fire alarm and I'm fixing the problems right now." As TK explained himself he also worked his way out of Gabriel's attic. Gabriel let his eyebrows raise in surprise at the abilities of his future son-in-law.

Judd and Marjan were washing down the engine truck when they noticed one of the screws was extremely loose. They were pretty stumped about it and were about to complain to Paul who was in the kitchen making lunch. They were so focused on the problem with the engine that they didn't see TK. They both turned back to the problem so they could properly complain about it to Paul which is how they finally noticed TK. All three of the jaws dropped when they saw how easily TK fixed the problem, especially without breaking the truck.

4.

Nancy was trying to complain to her partner about a problem with the ambulance when she noticed he wasn't there anymore. "This shelf is so unstable I wouldn't be surprised if it fell down the next time someone put something on it." She looked through the ambulance doors to see if TK was listening to her complaint but didn't see him anywhere. She turned back to the shelf just to end up almost having a heart attack when she saw TK already there. "Oh my God, when did you get in here dude?" "When you started complaining about the shelf." Nancy noticed that TK didn't even look away from the shelf while he spoke.

She was about to ask him what he was doing when he finally stepped away from the shelf to show that it was now completely fixed which surprised Nancy.

5.

Mateo came back to his house expecting it to be empty. He got confused when he heard someone messing around in his roommates room and chose to go and investigate the noise. He got another sick when he saw TK expertly fixing the flickering lightbulb in Owen's room.

+1

Carlos was coming home from a long day at work and wished that his boyfriend was there to cuddle him. He was happy when he saw TK's new car in his driveway. He got shocked and surprisingly turned on though when he saw TK fixing his sink.
