Literature between friends.
This is based on a book I've just started reading. Not sure I can mention the name, so I haven't. It's Flack/Danny friendship, OC/Flack (not named) as for this he needs a woman and rather inconveniently, doesn't have one. Danny/Lindsay too.
…...
"Wow" Flack cocked an eyebrow "Someone got some last night"
Danny laughed "Man, some? I got lots"
"Too much information" Flack curled his upper lip "For this time of morning"
"Seriously" Danny leaned in "You're still dating that girl right?"
Flack leaned away, giving him an odd look "Hate to burst your bubble buddy, but you're not my type"
"No, Flack listen to me!" Danny insisted.
"What?" Flack looked more suspicious than usual.
"Lindsay got this book" he handed it to Flack "Actually it's three books, go on, take a look"
"A chick lit book?" Flack handled the book as if it were tainted "Really Messer?"
"Take a look" he insisted.
Flack flicked through a few pages, finding nothing of interest he handed it back with a sneer.
"You're useless" Danny rolled his eyes, taking a few moments to find what he was looking for "Here" he handed the book back.
Flack read a moment or two, his face turning from boredom, to shock, to interest "Lindsay read this?"
"Read the fuck outta it" Danny winked "She's on the second book, which is just as ah, 'good' as the first"
"And?"
"Boom, Flack, bigtime boom" he grinned at his friend "I tell you, these books are a guarantee. Three books in all, and boy, they're better than anything I've ever tried. Took Linds a week to read it, there's a reason I'm so tired this week!"
"Where did she get them?" an idea was forming, turn up with gifts that meant he'd taken notice of the fact she liked to read was a good start, brownie points there, and when she started reading, if it worked as it had for Lindsay and Danny...
"Bookstore, obviously" Danny told him.
XXXXXXxxxxxxXXXXXX
"Hey baby" Flack smiled and kissed her "I got you somethin'" he handed her the three books.
"Mmmm hey" she murmured back, taking the books from him, she looked them over and laughed.
"What's funny?" he frowned.
"I've already got them" she grabbed his NYPD ID badge attached to the chain around his neck, pulling him toward the bedroom "And I've been waiting for you to get here"
