This came to me as a request on Tumblr... a jealous Antonio... so, here it goes!
Antonio couldn't wait to get out of work and to Molly's. Now, he wasn't a raging alcoholic, as he'd recently discovered his father was, but Molly's was the gathering place for his friends and family. It did help that his sister was part-owner in the place. It was also where he planned on picking up his girlfriend, Sylvie.
He thought he was the luckiest guy in the world to have her in his life. She'd surprised him so many times in the short amount of time they'd been together. He thought about it. It wasn't really that short of time. Heck, she hadn't run away when she'd witnessed the disaster that was his parents' '40th Anniversary' party turned into a divorce announcement. That had been one hell of a night.
He pulled up to Molly's and headed inside. As always, most of the second shift of Firehouse 51 was there, as were a bunch of his former co-workers from Intelligence. He looked around for Sylvie, but he couldn't see her. He went up to the bar and got his sister's attention. "Hey! Gaby!"
"Antonio!" She leaned across the bar and hugged her big brother. "How's the new gig?"
"I have to wear a suit more often than not, but otherwise, it's great. I actually don't mind being the boss... only thing is... more paperwork."
Gaby snickered. "Well, enjoy that."
"Where's Sylvie?"
"Oh! Right... kitchen... she had to take a call." Gaby pointed to the back.
Antonio thanked her and headed to find Sylvie. He pushed in the door and was about to call out her name, but stopped dead in his tracks. She was still on the phone, but it was the subject of her conversation that made him freeze. Her back was turned to him, so she didn't know he was there.
"I know it's been a long time." She was saying. There was a pause. "I know, I miss you too... I can't wait to see you again!" She laughed. "I don't think I will ever forget that time we had out by the lake." Another pause. "No! You got us in trouble because you decided to... I didn't do that!"
Antonio was intrigued by this. Her tone was similar to the tone she used with him. He was suspicious by nature, and being a cop for as long as he'd been, didn't help. He had a feeling in the pit of his stomach that this person was someone like him, a lover. He wanted to back away and pretend he never heard any of this. He stopped when he heard the last part of the conversation.
"I can't wait! Wait... you're headed here this weekend!" She squealed. "Oh yes! I have so much to show you... I've changed so much... yes... you can stay... no, really it's not a problem. Love you too." She spun around as she ended the call. "Antonio! Hi!" She ran to him, wrapping her arms around his neck. "When did you get here?"
