"All I'm saying is give it a chance"

Mac scowled at her, arms crossing stubbornly across his greasy chest while she shuffled her feet before him. He lent back against the car he was fixing, throwing the thought around his head. Hell no, he didn't want to do this, no way in hell. He opened his mouth to decline, but her doe eyes were fixed on him.

"No!" He snapped, he shook his head quickly. "That shit ain't gone work on me girl."

"What shit?" She asked innocently. She moved closer to him, a sweet smile crossing her lips as her hand started to stroke his arm. Mac's scowl deepened and she laughed, "Oh c'mon Mac, I'm not asking much," She begged.

"Ain't asking much? Ya just asked if I would come 'round to that asshole's place," He growled.

Audrey shrugged, "Well that asshole happens to be the owner of the house I live in. Look if you come around to dinner, things will be less tense," She promised hopefully. "It's just dinner Mac, and if you wanna leave early. Then you can" She added.

Mac sighed, would he rather Audrey get sulky with him or sit through painful hours of having dinner with Mitchell and Nina. He weighed the options, realising that an unhappy girlfriend was the biggest punishment a man could have. Audrey hadn't been the same all week, always uncomfortable with spending copious amounts of time with him, incase Mitchell and Nina bothered her. So Mac decided to do the one thing that would let him spend more time with her.

"Fine, you little shit," He hissed.

Audrey's eyes lightened and she grinned widely, she wrapped her arms over his shoulders and passionately kissed him. Whipped, so whipped he thought as his hands palmed her ass through her jeans and lifted her up. Audrey's toned legs firmly snaked around his hips, while her fingers dragged through his hair and pulled him closer to her.

"I should do more things for you," Mac joked, he nipped her neck lightly and smirked as she whimpered softly. Her legs unwound around his hips and she slowly slid down him, snickering when Mac made a small noise of protest. "Do you have to go?" He asked her, "Y'know the office is free."

Audrey rolled her eyes and pressed her lips against his cheek, "I have other things in mind."

"Oh?"

"A little gift for you after the dinner is done," She promised. "Something I think you'll enjoy."

Mac raised his eyebrows at her but she simply ran her hand down his chest until it hovered over his crotch. She winked at him and sauntered away from him, "Tease" He called after her and she blew him a kiss. She gave him one last sultry wink before disappearing out of the towns garage.

"I can't believe I'm doing this shit," Mac grumbled as he threw a plaid shirt over his grubby wife beater. Frank made kissing noises at him, almost giggling as Mac smacked him in the face with an old rag. "Shut cher mouth Frank," He snapped.

Frank snickered quietly, "You've certainly changed, you might be wearing a suit tomorrow," He joked teasingly.

Mac shrugged off his comment, "Whatever man, at least I'll be getting some tonight," He replied snidely. Frank's face dropped with disappointment and Mac had to bark with laughter, it was Frank's turn to scowl at him irritably.

"Low shot Mac,"

Mac clapped a hand on Frank's shoulder, grinning smugly to his closest friend before strolling to the front of the towns garage. It didn't take long for him to drive over to Audrey's, and as he answered the door, she came outside in a quick flash. As soon as she closed the door behind her, Mac had her pinned against the door with his hands grabbing anything exposed. His large hands firmly gripped her thighs, lightly dragging up underneath the tight dress.

Audrey's hand stopped him quickly and he scowled, "Not yet," She whispered. She lifted the hem of her dress sneakily, allowing Mac a clear view of garters and nothing else. His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, his mouth moistening fairly quickly.

"You're such a filthy girl," He purred.

Audrey smirked at him, "I also have a nurses outfit in my travel bag," She drawled, as her mouth made a small trail of kisses along his jaw.

"Travel bag?"

"You don't expect me to stay here do you?" She laughed. "I thought you might want to play nurse and patient tonight."

Mac straightened up quickly, eyes clearly showing ambition as he yanked open the door behind her. "Let's hurry up and get this shit done," Mac growled, Audrey turned with a giggle and walked through the threshold. Mac smacked her ass firmly, "Your man needs taking care of," He added huskily.

A shudder ran down Audrey's spine, warmth spreading through her limbs at Mac's words. She couldn't quite explain the feelings that poured through her when Mac said he was her man, it was something she had never felt before. She desperately wanted this night to go well, she wanted nothing more than to go out with Mac without Mitchell rolling his eyes behind her back. She gritted her teeth and squared her shoulders, leading Mac into the small table in the kitchen, one they were all too familiar with.

"Nina, Mitchell. Mac's here," Audrey announced.

Two sets of eyes were immediately on Mac, he felt his defensive walls go up and he tensed quickly. Audrey made sure to glare at the two, forcing Nina to swivel around and continue cooking while Mitchell cleared his throat and absently stared at the empty plate before him.

"Do you want a beer?" Audrey asked Mac out of sheer awkwardness.

"That'll do for now," Mac answered smoothly, dropping Audrey a secret wink that relaxed her instantly. Mitchell was tense at the table, watching Mac stare at Audrey's rear as she bent over to grab his beer. He frowned with disapproval, uncomfortable with the primal look that passed over Mac's face. "So, what ya cooking sugar?" Mac drawled in Nina's general direction.

Mitchell growled angrily, and Audrey nibbled on her lip anxiously. "Meatloaf," Nina answered firmly, her mouth set in a tight line.

A cocky smile spread over Mac's lips, he eyed Audrey knowingly and raised his eyebrows smugly. "My favourite," He murmured, in which Audrey's cheeks reddened. He took a seat at the head of the table, eyes lingering on Mitchell who sat at the other end of the table. Audrey sat near him, nervously glancing between the two males.

"So uh Mac, hows business down at the garage?" Nina asked as she started to serve up their dinners.

Mac lounged back in his chair, watching as Nina piled a large meal on his plate. "The usual. People are too stupid to take care of their cars," Mac replied cooly.

"And will you still be buying the towns garage?" She asked whilst taking a seat opposite Audrey.

Mac frowned and so did Audrey, "Where'd you hear that crazy talk?" Mac snorted.

Nina's cheeks turned pink and she dropped her gaze to the plate before her. "Uh...when we were younger, I remember you were planning to buy it." She answered with embarrassment.

"That thought has long gone," Mac snickered, he shook his head at the mere thought.

"And whys that?" Mitchell asked out of curiosity.

Mac stared at him, not a single thought coming to mind. He blankly looked away and shrugged, muttering some lame excuse while he shovelled Nina's well cooked meal into his mouth. The silence didn't last long, in fact, Nina and Audrey had both wished it lasted for the whole night.

It had started quite innocently, Mitchell making small comments regarding masculinity, and Mac would reply as politely as Mac could be. Then Mitchell started making bigger comments about his masculinity, and of course Mac grew defensive and made snarky comments. All too soon, Mitchell and Mac were declaring drinking competitions and any other ridiculous food competition they could think of. This left Nina and Audrey to tiredly stare at the two men.

"I bet you can't even down those three beers before you get dizzy," Mac sneered.

Mitchell glowered at him, before eying the three beer bottles set before him. "Do I look like a little bitch?" He snapped irritably.

"Well why don't you take off your bra so I can get a good look at ya," Mac replied snidely.

Mitchell snarled at him and his hand lashed out and gripped one beer bottle quickly. Nina stepped away from the kitchen sink and intervened quickly. "Stop it, you'll make yourself sick," She quipped, she grabbed the bottles from Mitchell and placed them on the counter. "Why don't you both just grow up and stop eye-fucking one another from across the table!"

Mac and Mitchell stared in surprise at her, "But.." Mitchell started.

"No buts! Audrey and I have spent the last one and a half hours watching you two wave your dicks around, competing to be alpha male. Do you know how stupid you both look right now?" She snapped, "No wonder Audrey's outside smoking" She added.

Mac looked at the front door, he hadn't even noticed Audrey had left.

"Get it together both of you. Mitchell you aren't her father, you can't dictate what she does. And Mac...well just stop being an ass," Nina said. The two males frowned at her, wondering where this sudden change had come from. "The last thing I need is Mitchell in the hospital again," She added underneath her breath.

She briskly walked away from the table and into her bedroom, slamming the door closed behind her.

Mac and Mitchell stared at one another, the tension between thicker than it had ever been before. Mitchell cleared his throat, thoughts racing through his mind. He kept his eyes on Mac, who didn't break the stare, even when Mitchell got up and reached for the beer on the counter. It seemed like forever before he finally spoke, having first taking a generous gulp from his bottle.

"I'll kill you," Mitchell murmured, he wiped his mouth and looked at Mac pointedly. "If there is so much as a scratch on that girl." Mac opened his mouth to protest, but Mitchell silenced him by waving his hand. "Don't bullshit me Mac, we both know you have violent tendencies. Hurt her in any way, I'll be coming for you."

Mac nodded. They both knew that Mac could do far more damage than Mitchell ever could, but Mac wouldn't take Mitchell's words lightly. He would never intend to do so, shit he was so hung up on the girl that he couldn't even think straight. So why on earth would he take the risk? He wouldn't and Mitchell could see it.

"Glad we came to an understanding," Mitchell muttered.

"Understanding?" Audrey questioned as she strolled into the kitchen. She glanced between the two, "Are you two besties now?" She laughed.

"Hardly" Mitchell grumbled and he brushed past her, "I'm assuming you'll be staying at his, so I'll see you when I see you." He added cooly before he retreated up the hall and made his way into his and Nina's shared bedroom.

Audrey rolled her eyes and waved her travel bag in Mac's face, "C'mon lets go to yours," She sighed.

Mac jumped up quickly, one large hand grabbing her hip firmly and leading her towards the door. "Whats wrong sugar lips?" He asked her, his mouth nuzzled into her neck and nipped firmly at the skin there. She wriggled beneath him, eyes narrowing in pleasure.

"It's just so uncomfortable living here. Mitchell is being a real ass about this," She complained softly.

"I've got a resolution," Mac admitted.

"Making me wake up your neighbours dog at two in the morning won't help Mac." Audrey sniggered.

"It'll make me horny as hell though," Mac retorted. He was silent as he lead her to his truck, "I had another thing in mind though.."

"Oh?"

"Why don't you just move in with me?"
