Welcome to Rainbow Snippets weekend!

I bought a mattress yesterday because my husband is a princess (and the pea), so we needed a new one. 🙂 Ah well…

Lud has finished his meal and brings the dishes over to Deacon (who is in the first person)…

—————————————————————————————

“You could have left all that on the table,” I said as Lud set everything in front of me.

“Didn’t want to give you the extra work,” he replied, grinning.

“If only you would remember that in our apartment,” I snapped, and began mixing iced tea, lemonade, and fruit punch for the juice machine. It was disconcerting to have his gaze on me. I could see him in the large mirror on the wall.

Lud laughed. “You wound me. Maybe I leave all the cleaning to you because you’re so good at it. And you’re so lovely with your jockstrap in a twist.”

Welcome to Rainbow Snippets weekend! Have you had a wonderful week? I hope so. 🙂

Lud eats with his mouth closed…

—————————————————————————————

“Well, thanks again for stepping in. I’ll call the cops and have these idiots taken care of. I can handle things from here. I’m sure you have places to be.”

“Why do you think I’m leaving?” Lud said. “I’m hungry.”

I frowned. “Um…okay.”

I rang the police, and in a little while, when Dumb, Dumber, and Son on my floor were just coming to, the law showed up and hauled them away. Lud was there through all this, in a corner booth, finishing off his scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns, sausage, and coffee that I’d prepared for him. He even ate with his mouth closed, and didn’t slurp his hot drink. What was the world coming to?

Welcome to Rainbow Snippets weekend, and Happy Spring! 😉

So, Lud wears expensive suits?!

—————————————————————————————

I gave Lud the once-over. “Since when do you even own a suit?” And it was nice, too. High quality, expensive. I recognized the brand from all the times I’d drooled over suits online. All I’d ever seen Lud wear, when not streaking through the apartment, was casual attire, most of those items ancient. Though, if I thought about it—and why would I, right?—a lot of those items
might have been name-brand new at some point.

Lud shrugged as if to imply that wearing an eight-hundred-dollar Hugo Boss garment was just par for the course. “There’s a lot you don’t know about me.”

Hi there!

Lud is being vague…

—————————————————————————————

“You alright, Deacon?” Lud asked, lending a hand to help me up.  Looking at him, I noted that he’d barely broken a sweat and still looked pristine, the bastard. And the way he stared at me, his gaze serious, reminded me of the time with the generator. It was weird.

“I’m fine,” I replied, letting go of his hand to straighten my work shirt, sighing at the rip under the left arm. “These fools get into brawls at least once a month.” I glanced at Lud, just an inch or so shorter than me, and said, “Thanks for the assist, but what
are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be out of town, doing…consulting things?”

Lud smiled with his usual confidence, the serious expression gone. “I was in the area.”

Welcome to the weekend! 😀

Deacon sees Lud in a new light …

—————————————————————————————

I sought to push the men off me, but fists started flying, and one punch caught me in the groin. I was glad of the jock strap and cup I wore, a habit learned from painful experience working the diner at night when things got rough. The blow hurt a little, but not as much as it could have.

Suddenly, I heard a roar, and the guys who attacked me were dispatched one by one. When I looked up, there was Lud, dressed  to the nines in a black suit and burgundy shirt, cleanshaven, knocking each man unconscious before they could even make a move. I was so shocked, I could only stare.

What the fuck?

Morning, my dears!!

I am having a relaxed weekend, so far. I hope you are, too!

Deacon tries to break up a fight in Lud … It is longer than six sentences, for context. Forgive me. 🙂

—————————————————————————————

Late one night, Ludwig Dreck showed up at the diner while I was trying to break up a brawl between two ne’er-do-wells who’d had one too many beers and insulted each other’s spouses and sexual prowess.

I glimpsed him out of the corner of my eye as I struggled with the idiots straining against me, but the shock of the sight of Lud didn’t detract from the matter at hand.

“Phil, let him go,” I growled as I placed a hand each between him and George, pressing against their chests while both men attempted to grab each other’s shirts for the millionth time, it seemed. Some buttons had already popped off somewhere.

“Shut up, Deke. This ain’t your affair.” Right, because they hadn’t just busted two chairs and broken a table leg, and had
done something similar last month.

“You don’t stop, I’m calling the cops. Again.” They continued to strain against my hold, and my arms felt the burn. “What’s it gonna be, guys?”

“He started it!” George yelled, grunting as he worked to get around me once more. “Ain’t that right, Joshua?” Before I could react, someone tackled me from behind, and the four of us crashed to the floor.
