Elevator threats

He's sitting across from her and he can't stop talking.

it's like he's afraid if there's a silence she might say something, that she might take it upon herself to just wreck him again and he knows he can't take it. He's not as strong as her as much as he hates it, she seems to be able to take a hit much better than he can. She's so much better at putting herself together and it's just not fair because he can't even find half of the pieces.

So he talks about asses and lions and gerbils and watches her and silently begs Logan to put him out of his misery.

He doesn't.

So much for all that brothers shit that Logan's always spewing, Cass would have...yeah well...

He spouts a line about walking in a straight line to find a party and leaves.

He manages to get as far as the hotel bar.

He's several drinks in when he see's that guy, the test guy, the one that wants in Mac's pants, walk through the lobby. He follows him into the elevator and watches him press the penthouse and fidget nervously.

She has a boyfriend, you're not going to get anywhere. She's a good girl.

He leans in the corner of the elevator and watches him and he must be more drunk then he thought because he wants to put his fist through that fuckers face and he wonders if it's a trend. Anyone who wants to be with Mac, a rite of passage, you want to put your tongue in her mouth you must first have his fist in your face.

Except she'll know as soon as he steps through the door, the door to his fucking place, which wouldn't be the first time but Logan. Logan would find out, and Mac and Logan had this weird buddy thing going on that he hates and she'll tell him what happen, and that it wasn't the first time.

He doesn't want Logan to make that I know what this is face.

He hates that face.

"You fuck with her and I'll cut off your revenue stream." He tells him as the door opens onto the top floor. God he must be drunk using a phrase like revenue stream.

"What?" The asshole turns wide eyes behind those Buddy Holly glasses, and he looks confused.

"If you fuck with Mac, I'll cut off you're revenue stream."

The test dude narrows his eyes like he's trying to recognise Dick, like he's trying to judge if he could so he stands to his full height which just fucking towers over him and he's happy to see him take half a step back.

"You make good money on the Pi Sig's and I'll make it go away. I'll make it all go away." He tells him and his voice is that scary dark that Cass' used to get and the guys eyes widen like he gets it, like he thinks he'll make it happen.

"I wouldn't..." he opens his mouth to say more but he doesn't need to hear it, doesn't want to hear it, the whole I'd never hurt her, I care about her bullshit. He's never known anyone who cared more for Mac than his brother and look what he did. Having feelings for someone didn't mean you wouldn't hurt them, fuck look at Logan and Ronnie all they did was hurt each other.

The elevator starts to close again and the boy stretches out his arm to stop them.

Dick leans back against the wall of the elevator again, his job done, the kid is shaken. He has crushing people money and it must be written all over him. He'd be perfectly happy using the money he'd gotten from his brother to fuck this guy up. He's fairly certain Cass would approve. Not happy normal Cass, but the boy who set pools on fire, who would have killed that kid for touching Mac, that Cassidy would be perfectly happy with the use of the money.

"Aren't you..."

"No." He's not going back, he's not going back until she's gone. He watches the guy stand there confused as the doors close and he hits the button for the lobby.

He tells the old guy at the desk to get him from the bar when Mac leaves.

The guy looks at him with eyes that are big and sad, like he knows what's going on and it's exactly the same look he expects from Logan if he ever found out.

A/N:So I did it! I wrote a whole novel, beginning, middle and end 51k in a whole month and now it's over and the deadline is gone so I will be updating my stuff with a beautiful calm and not vomit inducing worry. I really like pretty much all of the stories I'm in here and I'll try and give them all the attention they deserve. Please keep up the love. A whole month without you guys almost killed me.

LOVE YOU
