'…bro, I told you to leave the showerhead alone and not mess with it!'
Jack heard the young African-American guy with immaculately-groomed facial hair before he actually saw him.
Man seemed really worked up, gesturing wildly and dramatically at the taller, younger blonde guy in a brown leather jacket with him.
The blonde nodded ruefully and apologetically, before he gave a sheepish little smirk, raising a shoulder.
'In my defence, I did raise the water pressure.'
That got the shorter guy to stop in his tracks and shoot the blonde a look. The gesturing got even wilder, he spluttered slightly, and the blonde looked even more earnestly, apologetically sheepish, rubbing the back of his neck.
'You destroyed, like, three square feet of tile, and the showerhead looks all industrial-steampunk, and not in a good way, bro!'
The blonde sighed and nodded.
'In hindsight, it was not one of my most well-executed ideas…' His companion snorted. '…and I'm really sorry, Boze.' He gestured at the tile section of the shop. 'So, um, why don't you go pick out our new tile? And a new showerhead, of course.'
'Boze' stared at his friend, raising an eyebrow.
'You're gonna re-tile the entire bathroom in whatever tile I pick out?' The blonde just nodded, as if it were obvious. After a moment, 'Boze' grinned and shook his head in a way that was full of love and exasperation, before pointing at the taller man. 'And that's why being mad at you is like being mad at a puppy for chewing up your favourite kicks…'
Then, the grin shifted and he rubbed his hands together in a way that could only be described as excitedly gleeful, walking towards the tile.
His friend followed, a fond, long-suffering smile on his face, shaking his head.
Jack took that as his cue, and walked forward to greet his customers, a big grin on his face.
(This was definitely going to be a good sale.)
'Morning, gentlemen. Little birdy told me you were looking for some new bathroom tiles, and we just got these beauties in; all-marble Moroccan-style, or maybe you're more the industrial look? We got these great slates, really go with your jacket there, man…'
AN: With thanks to Mac Mofam. Mac would totally destroy the bathroom while caught up in an idea (while Bozer was out filming, of course), Bozer would then come home to find the showerhead looking all industrial-steampunk (not in a good way) and the tile destroyed and his BFF soaking wet and covered in plaster dust and bits of tile…and looking every bit like a Golden Retriever puppy caught chewing his favourite kicks. Of course, Mac would then re-tile the bathroom in whatever Bozer picked out…even if it was that really expensive, really hard to lay marble mosaic. (Which it probably wouldn't be, since it doesn't match the industrial mid-century-modern aesthetic Mac's house has got going on.)
