Vic's and Lucas' marital bliss is shaken a little by the arrival of David Mayhorn (Vic's sort of 'ex' from S23-subbing for an injured B shift member.
LON is Lucas' Father's name
"I promise you that David Mayhorn is far, FAR in the past, Lucas. I'm HERE, and unless you tell me to leave, here is where I want to be. I have never been happier. You, me, and Davey...I'm focused on US. No one and nothing else."
Lucas offers a tight smile in response. "I have to admit that finding out that Mayhorn was coming to 19 on B shift shook me somewhat. Of course, the transfer paperwork came across my desk; I didn't realize who the fuck he was, that he was a part of your life before did Sullivan know, do you think?"
"I can't say...I doubt it...YES-EXACTLY-'PRE-US!' I dated Mayhorn for a minute; not long enough to form an attachment, and it sort of fizzled out about the time I was assigned here, Lucas...this can't invade the 'good space' that we have here, PLEASE...we're closer than ever, and we have Davey."
"His presence here scratches at me. I don't want him here a moment longer than necessary after Vasquez returns."
He scoops up his Son, who is shakily moving along the sofa's edge and showers him with pecking kisses. David Lon Ripley ('Lon' for Lucas's Father) is a light brown, with green eyes and curly dirty blonde hair, worn long. Ripley tells himself 'We'll be fine...Vic's right...the past is the past.'
"SULLIVAN can deal with getting someone from another Station, Chief-HE IS your best friend...why are you stressing about this?"
" Yo, Rip...what's up?" Station 19's newest Captain waves off Andy Herrera's offer of iced tea.
"Nutin, Hiney-hey, did you know of the Vic-Mayhorn connection before approving him substituting at 19?"
"Ah...noooo. How would I know that, and why the fuck would I care? Ohhhh, OK-I can get that shit canceled; there's someone who wants the OT."
"Thanks, Brother. It just bothers me, him being there. As petty as it sounds."
"Man, I know you over 100 hundred years-you don't have to explain shit to me."
