Little baby chapter, but the next one came out with so enjoy the double take!
Hank blinked for a few moments. It was like he was looking at a different person entirely. Connor looked so human. Not to mention damn fine. He looked even taller in his jeans and high top sneakers. He looked so slender and fit under his tee-shirt. And Hank had never seen his hair styled any other way.
"Looks like your ready to go out for a night on the town," for had Hank tried anything else it may have been more than he wanted to say. "Let me use the restroom and we can head out."
Connor played with Sumo while he waited for Hank. In between he polished off his drink, it was such a strange feeling to feel so relieved and excited, especially because there wasn't really anything to induce these feelings. Sure playing with Sumo made him happy, but he was having way too much fun right now with the dog and his tug rope. Sumo gave a load playful bark that Connor laughed out loud at.
Hank had come into the living room now. Connor's eyes caught the man's face and the laugh got lost in the back of his thoat. Hank looked the best that Connor had ever seen him, his hair nicely combed out and he'd cleaned up his beard a bit. He looked like a million dollars, and...was he thinner? Connor gave him another good look up and down with a scan this time. Yes, Hank was around fifteen pounds lighter from the last time Connor ran a scan, when had that happened?
The look of complete indulgence on Connor's face made Hank a little uncomfortable. Look at the way he is looking at you. Like he's hungry and you're a fat piece of cake. Hank shoved off his deep thoughts and tried to put on a smile, "I've decided that we are taking a taxi, we have both been drinking, and who know what that stuff will do to you by the end of the night."
Something about a taxi and Hank doing something to him at the end of the night was all that made it in through the made swarm of sultry thoughts whizzing around Connor's processors. "Yeah, okay Hank," he says with a dreamy little voice.
"Then stop looking at me like a pansy and let's get the hell outta here," Hank says turning away from the android and heading for his coat next to the door.
Hank didn't see it but Connor's LED blushed again, as he blinked a few times and stood from the couch, tugging at his clothes a bit and fingering the flashing ring.
On to the next!-
