Summary
“I will not hook up with Travis tonight.”
Eeliot readjusted his headset as he left the bathroom, breathing in the delicate aroma of Valentino’s smoke as it swirled around the party. Travis was already standing at the bar, one foot tapping against the floor to the music. He collected two shots from the bartender, bringing one to his lips while he cradled the other between his fingers. The alcohol was dark red with a cranberry resting at the bottom of the glass. Travis split the fruit with his teeth, scarlet juice gracing his lips with a slight bloom. Eeliot guessed he’d ordered cranberry cookie shots, desiring a taste of sweetness after a bitter day. Amaretto slipped easily down the throat. There was a gentleness to the way Travis traced the second shot’s rim with his finger as it sat on the bar, his eyes darting across the room in search of a familiar face. Eeliot rushed into the crowd.
He needed a drink, but he refused to take that shot.
*****
Eeliot and Travis have a situationship that is further complicated by their boss' distaste of them being together. Neither of them know how deep their feelings go or how much they keep hidden from each other.
