I know - we really need to get a move on with the real food thing -
[ shaking his head.
wait, what? ]
Mrs. wh-? [ cisco you can't just say things like that! jkdfhg ] You mean Kitty? [ running a hand through his hair ] Actually, I got to the bottom of what -- happened there. She just, she... [ it feels weird thinking it let alone saying it. ] uh, she was insecure. [ don't ask him, man. he doesn't get it either. ]
[ this time, he does gag on his drink. hold on, give him a second there while he coughs this out, and wipes his mouth as he shakes his head. ]
No - no - pretty sure - that no. [ coughing. goddammit cisco. ] She's just - her world sucks, capital everything, so she doesn't really know most of what we talk about. And she's scary smart - but cuz her world sucks she didn't get to go to school for it and you and I we just - we get each other without needing a whole lot of explaining. That...sorta insecure. I'm 99% sure.
[ it used to be 100, but you went and said it - ]
I mean - you've seen her - and me.
[ he knows she worries about him meeting someone at home but come on, if any of them is going to get snatched up in the fleet - well it's definitely not gonna be him, that she loves him is enough of a freak accident. ]
[ seen more than he needs to - he can't be talking about the time he walked in on them cuz they were just making out, come on, what is it with people on the fleet and overreacting to kissing? they're all adults here, aren't they? at least, all the people who have been involved in these incidents so far are! but he sure does hope he's talking about that time because please don't tell him you walked in on his girlfriend naked or anything like that, cisco!!! he likes you. he doesn't want to hate you. ] Cuz, if you're talking about us kissing I gotta point out that we got a room - [ you just let yourself into it without knocking, totally your fault, bro. ]
[ yeah, he's just going to accept it and take a long gulp, before putting it down. ]
I'm really stupidly happy - and really stupidly stressed of messing it up because I'm really stupid sometimes.
[ and you know what? it feels good to say it out loud. kitty is amazing, and he's so lucky to have her, but dating someone with as many triggers as her, who is so far out of his league - it's really stressful sometimes. ]
[ no, cruella de vil crazy is his job in this relationship. that does make him smile, though. ]
Thanks, man. [ he can't really talk about kitty to his other friends - they're all her friends too. in a very selfish way he's kinda glad she clashes with cisco, cuz that means he can have one friend that's just his, his bro to talk this out with. ]
