Two: Cadillac Car Hell

Greg was not looking forward to the day and he was not even out of bed yet, Sara had already showed up at their door and whisked Nick away with an evil smirk. What a bitch. He really did not know if this guy was really worth risking his friendship with Sara over, but not she was not playing fair, he would rise up to the challenge for sure. In all reality he had so called dibs first. He even bet that Nick made those horrible uniforms they had to wear hot.

"Greg man where they got you this year?"

"Cars." He grumbled.

"Hey at least you are not in the bear suit."

"I rather take the bear suit Ryan."

"Why?"

"I'm working with Sara and Nick."

"Oh man that has got to suck."

"Tell me about it, she is really laying it on thick."

"Well she is a woman who knows what she wants."

"Yeah, the same thing I do. I saw him first."

"Greg do you really want to risk your friendship with Sara on a guy that might not even be gay?"

"We aren't that good of friends."

"Bullshit Greg, Sara has been your best friend since grade school."

"Well it's not like we pledged to be best friends forever."

"Greg this is not wise, just leave Sara alone and let her be happy."

"But what if he is gay and then he breaks her heart?"

"Then let her discover it on her own, do you really want to do this?" He thought for a moment of all the things he and Sara shared, did he really want to throw it all away for Nick? It was then he heard laughter and he turned to see Sara and Nick hanging all over each other.

"Yes, yes I do."

"Hey Greg Sara didn't tell me you were working this ride too."

"Oh she didn't? What a shame." He said as he glared in her general direction, if Sara wanted a war, then a war she would have.

"Must have slipped my mind."

"Imagine that." Greg stated dryly.

"Hey Greg, you got the coffee run right?"

"I…"

"Oh man that would be great I could use some coffee."

"Yeah, I got it." He relented and tried not to flip off Sara as he passed. He could see the way Nick's eyes traveled up and down Sara's body he was defiantly interested, he would so have to change that.

"Greg sometime today."

"I'm going." He hissed at her, if she was going to be like this he would gladly ruin their friendship.

He kicked rocks as he made his way to the closest vendor to get coffee, he wondered if should spit Saras', she totally deserved it, but he wouldn't stoop that low, yet.

"Gee Greg you look miserable."

"Thanks Cath, very observant."

"You're just steamed that you are working with Nick and Sara."

"I think God hates me."

"Come on Greg it can't be that bad just get over it he's straight. I saw Ryan's back screw him."

"He's involved." Greg muttered. "Or we'd be in the bathroom right now."

"TMI Greg." Catherine said as she scrunched up her nose. "Well I am sure there are others to go after."

"Probably, but I want Mr. Texas." He pouted.

"Greg you're not two stop acting like it."

"Fine, but I swear she is in for it thinking she can play games like this…"

"Greg she is your best friend this has got to stop."

"Then she should have thought about that when she started being a bitch."

"This can only end badly."

"I'll make new friends."

"Suit yourself Greg, here's your coffee."

"Thanks Cath, later."

"Yeah later." She only hoped he knew what he was getting himself into.

When he returned Sara and Nick were nowhere to be found so he took the coffee to the little ride operation bath in the back only to find Nick pressing Sara against wall in a heated kiss.

"Excuse me here's your coffee." They broke away from each other, Nick looked slightly embarrassed but Sara she looked smug and Greg wanted to smack that look off her face. The day hadn't even started yet and already he wanted to leave.

"Sorry Greg we got a little carried away." Sara said as she adjusted her shirt and Greg hated her just a little bit more.

"I could see that." He commented dryly. "Now if you excuse me I am going to do my job." Damn Sara Sidle any how for getting the best of him.

As expected the first day of the season was slow and most people went for the big rides saving the cars as a last resort. That left Greg to watch as Sara and Nick hung all over each other making him want to run them both over with the Cadillac cars.

"Hey baby." Greg looked up at the voice but before he could respond he was assaulted with a warm pair of lips.

"Ryan." Greg hissed as he pulled away. "What the hell are you doing?"

"Well I gave it some thought and if you really want to snag this guy we'll see if he gets jealous."

"But your involved…"

"I talked it over with him last night and he's all for it thinks it's hot. Now shut up and kiss me again while he's watching." And then Ryan captured his lips again and really Ryan had always been a good kisser so he would enjoy it. "I think you got his attention now." Ryan whispered as he pulled away. "See you later baby."

"Later." Greg watched him go and then he turned to Nick who was staring at him and was that a blush tinting his cheeks? God bless Ryan Wolfe.

"Hey Nick, customer."

"Oh…uh right." He stuttered and went to help the kid in the car. Greg couldn't help the grin that came to his face.

"So…" Nick started as they made their way to the maintenance shed as Sara helped the last customer.

"So I'm gay, does it bother you? Me being your roommate and all."

"No…not at all."

"You sure?"

"Positive." He smiled and Greg felt his knees go weak. "So he your boyfriend?"

"Something like that."

"Hey Nick you ready to go?"

"I was helping Greg shut things down."

"Oh Greg's got this, don't you?" Sara said as she twined herself around Nick.

"Really it's a two person job Sara." Nick interjected.

"He'll be fine won't you Greg?"

"No I…."

"Great come on Nick." Greg could only watch helplessly as Sara pulled Nick away, just when he thought he was winning. Although he could not help but notice that Nick was still looking at him as Sara pulled him away.

Greg opened his door and was met with a half naked Catherine and Warrick making out the couch.

"Ahem." They both looked up and scrambled off each other.

"Greg, hi…"

"I'm sure your room is free Cath."

"Right come on Warrick." He only nodded as she pulled him out the door, Greg wondered if she realized she still had no shirt on. Oh well not his problem.

"Greg you in here?"

"Yeah Ryan come on in."

"Was that Catherine I just saw in her bra?"

"Yeah, kicked her and Warrick out."

"Sweet, so how did my plan work?"

"Good until Sara dragged him away and left me to finish closing by myself."

"Damn, she is being a bitch."

"Tell me about it, and before she interfered Nick and I were having a good conversation. I do not think he is 100 straight."

"Ahhh, I love hope." Ryan said with a goofy smile.

"Yeah me too, I just need to get Sara out of the way for like a day."

"Hmmm, we'll have to work on that."

"God Nick, you're a great guy are you sure you don't have some girl waiting on you at home?"

"Nope I am free."

"Good." They heard the voices as they approached the door and Greg quickly pulled Ryan to him mashing their lips together. "Now maybe we can…oh God Greg!"

"Oh hey guys." Greg said as he pulled away from Ryan. "Having fun you know since you did not have to close anything."

"Listen Greg I…"

"Stuff it Greg you are a big boy."

"But I am only getting paid to do just one job, not three Sara."

"Whatever, and can't you do that somewhere else?"

"This is my room Sara, I'll do what I want."

"I'm sure Nick doesn't…"

"No it's ok Sara he had every right."

"Thanks Nick." Greg said with a smug look as he wrapped his arm around Ryan.

"Well we can see if my room…"

"I should warn you Catherine and Warrick are already in there."

"Damn it." Sara cursed.

"Hey it's ok, I am kinda tired anyway. I'll see you Thursday though."

"Thursday?"

"Tomorrow is my day off."

"Oh well goodnight." And then she leaned up and gave Nick a long kiss that made Greg want to hurl.

"Yeah, goodnight Sara." Sara only smiled at Greg as she sauntered by.

"I better go too, Greg walk me to the door."

"Right." He nodded and followed Ryan. Once they were out of earshot Ryan to Greg.

"Please tell me you have tomorrow off."

"No damn it."

"Well you're in luck I do, so I will cover for you."

"You'll put up with bitchy Sara so I can be alone with Nick?"

"If I must." He sighed dramatically.

"Why are you doing this Ryan? Helping me with Nick?"

"Because you are a great guy Nick and deserve to be happy too."

"Thanks Ryan." He smiled.

"Well I better go, got a big day tomorrow dealing with the witch and all."

"Good luck, she'll be steamed I know it."

"That's the plan."

"So…" Greg said as he entered the room to find Nick sitting on the couch. "You up for some surf tomorrow?"

"You're off tomorrow?"

"Yeah, lucky huh?"

"Yeah I mean I'd love to go surf even if I'm pretty sure I'll be horrible at it."

"You never know if you don't try."

"True."

"So surf tomorrow then?"

"Yeah it will be cool." Nick said with a smile that made Greg want to jump him right then and there.

"Awesome you better ready to get up early that's when the best waves are."

"Oh I'll be ready."

Greg went to sleep with a smile on his face, hoping after their surf date Nick would forget about Sara.
