Happy Together (Graceland Fan Fiction)

Happy Together Part 3

Abby left Lucia in the parking lot and headed into the bar. She spotted Mike waiting at the bar as he took a swig of his beer. He faced the other direction so he couldn't see her. Abby smirked. She decided she'd have a little fun with him. Unbeknownst to her Mike didn't have to see her to know that she was there. Every cell in his body became instantly alert. It seemed the fibers of his being came alive around Abby. Her shoes clicked as she came up behind him. Abby covered his eyes with her hands. "Guess who," she purred.

She felt him smile. "Hmmm," he began to play along, "Let's see... You have lovely feminine hands- from this angle you could be around five and a half feet tall, but I heard heels so I'd say more about five foot four." Abby held in an impressed noise. She hadn't told him her height and except from their walk on the beach the first night, she had mostly worn heels around him. He sniffed the air, "I know that perfume." Mike smirked. "Is this the brunette who jumped in the Mulholland fountain with me?" he continued.

"We tossed pennies in and then made out at the fountain," Abby released him, laughing, "You're good."

"It's my training- when you're an agent details are key," Mike wrapped his arms around her. Abby joined her hands behind his neck.

"Interesting," she replied. He dipped in and kissed her.

After they parted, Mike looked around for Lucia. "We caught Johnny out at your car," Abby began explaining.

"Yeah, he said he left something in the jeep," Mike replied.

"Lucia stuck behind to help him," she said, "They should be in any moment now."

"How are you doing?" Mike asked.

"I'm good; not much has changed since yesterday," Abby laughed. These past couple of weeks the two had been keeping in steady contact. They talked rather frequently if they weren't out doing something together.

Not a few seconds later Johnny & Lucia came in arm in arm. "Did you find it?" Mike inquired.

"Right here," Johnny lifted his cell phone. He and Lucia joined Mike & Abby at the bar ready to start their double date. The couples ordered their drinks. Mike kept an arm around Abby as the couples made their way to a free table.

They passed a small stage in the front part of the room. A trio of clearly amateur singers were entertaining the crowd with a very hammy rendition of Uptown Funk.

The guys helped the ladies with their chairs. "You didn't tell me this place had karaoke," Mike made a face.

"I forgot what night they had it on," Johnny said as they sat.

"You got something against karaoke?" Lucia asked.

Mike shook his head, "I don't mind listening to it- just not real big on performing."

"You mean I'm not going to get to watch you on that stage?" Abby raised an eyebrow in playful challenge.

Mike gave her a partially pained smile. "I don't have a singing voice," he declined.

"He's right. You should hear this guy in the shower- he sounds like a dying whale," Johnny quipped.

"Ha, ha," Mike shot back humorlessly.

"Can't be as bad as some of these yahoos," Lucia offered. One out of the three up there couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, but she was still was having fun.

"Have you ever tried singing in public?" Abby questioned.

"Johnny tired to push me on a karaoke stage once," Mike admitted.
