Hello everyreaders, It's me posting in the Heroes fandom for the first time. When i first saw the prompt that Julyisfree put in chapter ten of My neighbor, the serial killer , I knew I had to jump on that.
Also the picture i have as the cover is from her. Which i'll forever love her for.
So this drabble fic is kinda AU, set near Halloween and because of the upcoming star trek movie (out around 2013),made my mind started to churn out this little gem. Hope you guys like it!
Disclaimer: Don't own Heroes, or the characters. If i did, i would had tried to pair up these two a Long time ago...
"...You look ridiculous." Claire said to the tall dark-haired man standing in their living room. I can't believe it. She thought as she shakes her head in slight shame. He actually did it...
Gabriel looks down to his costume. He has on a blue starfleet shirt with some dark slacks. In addition to that, He has put on a wig to simulate the infamous bowel cut and has found fake ears wide enough to be used. And apparently he shaved his eyebrows to be just like his. If Claire had seen him on the street, she would have thought it would be the real thing, or at least his actor. "What's wrong? I thought you said you wanted to do Star trek. "
"Well,i did say that. But i thought you'd back out like last time." She remembers around this time last year where one of her friends, Gretchen had hosted a Halloween party at her dorm room. She had asked him to come but said that He had to do some work, i.e excuse to not go.
"Well, let's just say I want to spend some time together. And I kinda wanted to let loose, as the kids say,once in a while."
She can't help the giggle that escape her mouth. "But as Spock? Why?"
"I may admired the character."
She starts to laugh in earnest. She sits down on the soft dark blue sofa, trying to catch her breath. " I think you more than admired him if you're going up and beyond to look like the real deal."
"At least mine's not dripping with irony." He waves his hand to what Claire's wearing which is a red starfleet shirt with slacks.
She crosses her arms and pouts. "It was the only thing i could find on short notice. Better than nothing."
He smirks. "Uh, huh. Interesting." He starts to walk around Claire. "What were you going to get by the way?"
"Well, seeing as she was the only main girl for the movie uhh, Uhura..."
"Ahh," He gives a curt nod. "Too bad,you didn't. Would have love to have seen you in the skirt."
Claire gives a flirtatious smile. "Oh really?"
Gabriel walks close to her. He stops just inches from each other. "Yes." Drawing out the word that by the end of it, he sounds like a snake.
She leans in, just enough for their lips to brush up against each other. "Well, you could have asked me. I still have my cheerleader outfit."
He licks his lips as remembers the little red and white number. And now that he know she still has it, his mind start to race with the possibilities. He'll make sure to have time for each one. "Mmm, you should have told me sooner." He notices the way that her lower lip is trembling. He starts to trace it with his thumb. "We could have had so much fun..."
"Gabriel," As much as She wants him to take her in the couch, again, She had made a promise to her friend to go and partly wanted to see their reaction to their costume theme. "Later, we have a party to go to. " As compensation, she gave him a gentle kiss, filled with passion and want. She pulls back, trying to calm herself.
He sighs in resignation. "Of course." He stands up straight, moving his ears as they became a little lopsided. Claire gets up from the couch.
"Oh, gabriel?" He leans down again.
"Yes?"
She moves her head towards his ear, whispering, "You still look ridiculous."
