"Oh, no, no, no, I overslept, oh god," TK jumped out of bed talking to himself and running around throwing on his sweats and a t-shirt that didn't smell. He promised his dad therapy 3 times a week and his therapist was already angry with him for being late. Part of being late showed that he wasn't interested in showing up...or so the dude said and TK really didn't want to keep disappointing him. He also knew that Owen was checking up on him and he really wanted to better while being here in Texas. He was still so unsure of what he wanted to be doing other than the cycle he put himself in and as the days progressed he felt like the therapy was helping just not getting up so early in the morning was working.
TK buckled up his seatbelt, put the keys in the ignition, and sped on the gas to get there as fast as he could. He didn't think he would get pulled over if he was lucky, but when was he ever lucky? So it seemed coming to Texas gave him such bad luck and so many weird things were happening. He was definitely doing above the speed limit but so far no one was on the road and some people seemed to be passing him, but he knew that 70 was well over the speed limit and just as when he thought he had made it, he heard the sirens go off and he was now officially in deep shit.
"No!" He shouted hitting the steering wheel with his hands and banging his head on it just before a familiar face was at the window. "Oh come on!" TK snarled.
"License and registration, please," Carlos said before realizing just exactly who it was. "TK?" He swallowed. He needed to do his job, he was speeding, and this was going to be hard.
"Yes, it's me, please be a nice cop and let me off the hook, I need to be somewhere," TK demanded looking up at him with one eye open against the sun. He was also looking at how gorgeous Carlos was and feeling suddenly guilty for ghosting him for a few days, but he swore today he was going to call him after he talked to his therapist. Was this a sign? He didn't tell him he was seeing a therapist yet. He. didn't want him to think he was even crazier.
"I can't, you were speeding way over the speed limit," Carlos stood his ground and it felt kind of nice, he was so mad at TK for ghosting him.
"Please, officer Reyes," TK winked at him, "I really need to be somewhere, it's really important." He tried to flirt, but if he didn't tell him where he was going he was probably not going to let him off of the hook.
"Sorry, TK, rules are rules...license and registration, please," Carlos answered him putting out his hand.
TK sighed heavily and reached for his things, "I really do need to be somewhere in 10 minutes and now I'm going to be late, so if you could at least hurry up then, that would be great." TK was trying not to sound mean or anything but it was very sarcastic and Carlos didn't even know what was so important. He went to his police car to write the ticket and he could literally feel TK glaring at him through the rearview mirror so Carlos decided to give him a ticket for a faulty taillight and came back quicker than TK actually thought. "You good?" He asked putting his hand for him to give him the ticket, "I really need to go, my flirting didn't work, and you're probably so mad at me for ghosting you again,"
Carlos cleared his throat and smiled softly at him, "I actually decided that I am not mad at you and gave you a lesser ticket so you don't get points on your license. Be sure to pay it, TK. And don't forget to call me," Carlos did his best wink and reached into the car to wrestle his hair. It got TK to giggle but he was quick to speed off to get where he needed to be after a toss of the ticket and he was already forgetting about it.

"This is nice," TK breathed in Carlos' scent as they laid in the aftermath of them becoming one again. This time TK didn't have anywhere to be and this time he was actually planning on staying for at least another round.
"It is nice, I'm glad you decided to stay..." Carlos breathed him in as well, he was very addicted to the way TK felt in his arms and he wondered how he got so lucky after thinking that this would never happen again.
"Remember, when you pulled me over?" TK asked randomly with a little eyebrow wiggle as he poked him to see Carlos smile.
"Mm, yeah...your flirting was cute, I'm sorry I did my job..." Carlos teased and poked him back.
"I just wanted to tell you where I was actually going...it was to therapy...and it was because I promised I wouldn't be late again...but I overslept. I also didn't want to tell you that because I didn't want you to think I was even more crazy..." TK answered before swallowing and hiding a little against the police officer's shoulder.
"I think you are very crazy but that intrigues me, I like you a lot, TK. I don't want to lose this, I don't want to lose what we have, whatever it may be..." Carlos promised him and kissed his temple getting him to look at him.
"Promise?" TK pouted. "Because I like you too, and I told you something I haven't told anyone...I'm glad I did." He then confessed.
Carlos smiled feeling completely warm and fuzzy inside now and knew he needed to just go ahead and kiss the man he was falling for.
And they kissed until they couldn't breathe and were pulling away.
"Did you pay the ticket yet?" Carlos asked curiously knowing the answer anyway but he really wanted to bust his balls again.
"I literally have no idea where I flung it when I sped off," TK admitted raising an eyebrow at the look Carlos was giving him.
"Oh, that's a shame." Carlos teased.
"Wait...what...why..." TK raised his eyebrows even harder.
"If you did, I would have let you have another round...but looks like to me you have to go home now." Carlos winked.
"Oh." TK pouted and was actually about to get up and leave but Carlos was quick to pin him down against the couch and grind his hips up against his. "Oh.." TK moaned.
"Mhmm, I was teasing..."
"Mmm, then take me, Carlos, take me again, I'm yours. All yours."
Carlos smirked wickedly and dipped down to devour the man. Who knew all it took for TK to want Carlos like this was to pull him over...
