The Police and His Spy (Forcebook fanfic)

Lunchtime Revelations

As the four of them sat together at the restaurant, Win and Book found themselves seated across from Bright and Force. With menus in hand, they perused the options, their appetites whetted by the tantalizing descriptions of the dishes.

Win couldn't resist the opportunity to lean in closer to Book, using the menu as a makeshift shield to cover their conversation from Bright and Force's view. "So, spill the beans," he whispered conspiratorially, his eyes sparkling with curiosity. "What's going on with you and Force?"

Book's cheeks flushed slightly at Win's nosiness, but he couldn't help but smile at his friend's curiosity. "It's nothing," he replied softly, his voice barely above a whisper. "We're just... spending time together, I guess."

But Win wasn't easily deterred. He leaned in even closer, his expression becoming more insistent. "Come on, Book," he urged, his voice barely a whisper. "I can tell there's something more going on. Don't keep me in the dark."

Book hesitated for a moment, torn between his desire to keep his relationship with Force private and Win's persistent curiosity. Finally, he relented, knowing that Win wouldn't give up until he got some answers. "Okay, fine," he whispered back, his voice tinged with a mixture of apprehension and excitement. "Force and I... we're together."

As Book uttered, "Force and I... we're together," Win's eyes widened in surprise. Suddenly, he put the menu down with a clatter, drawing the attention of everyone at the table.

"WHAT?!" Win exclaimed loudly, his voice filled with shock and disbelief. 

The sudden outburst startled Bright, who turned to him with concern. "Baby, what's wrong?" he asked, reaching out to touch Win's arm.

Book's cheeks flushed with embarrassment as he nudged Win gently, whispering, "Ai Winnnn...!"

Quickly regaining his composure, Win forced a smile and replied to Bright, "Nothing, honey. Just got a bit excited over the menu options."

Win then quickly hid behind the menu once again, hoping to avoid any further attention.

Despite his attempt to downplay his reaction, the news of Book and Force's relationship had clearly caught him off guard. As they continued their lunch, Win couldn't shake the surprise from his mind, his thoughts filled with questions and curiosity about his friends' newfound romance.
