As he walked back into the bar, Trucker Hat and Overalls were back up and clearly still looking to fight.
Percy was leaning over the bar, fixing himself a drink. He’d poured a shot of Jack for Kevin and offered it out to him as soon as he got close enough. “Here you go, sug. Stay hydrated.”
“Thanks.” Kevin took the shot with a wink and knocked it back. He dodged Trucker Hat’s next blow, kicking his leg out and knocking him to the floor. He gave him a small nudge in the back of the head to encourage him to stay down.
“My pleasure.” Percy took a swig from his purloined glass.
It was something clear—Kevin was assuming schnapps.
Overalls was at it again, throwing himself at Kevin and pounding the side of his ribs. He socked Kevin right in the mouth, splitting his lip. Kevin didn’t feel it, but it did piss him off. He was tired of wrestling around with these assholes, and he’d had enough. He punched Overalls in the jaw, watching him collapse in a heap.
Percy clapped.
Kevin took a short bow as the rest of the bar erupted into applause, and he quickly dragged the drunks outside. He left them there in a pile, pausing to catch his breath and call a cab company to swing by here to take them home. He knew the operator who answered the phone because they were a regular at A Pizza Cake and promised to cover any fares if the drunks tried to get out of paying.
That done, he headed back inside to rejoin Percy at the bar.
“My hero,” Percy purred as he approached, batting his eyes.
“Anytime, little lady.” Kevin tipped an imaginary hat.
“Mm, you’ve got a little…” Percy took a handkerchief from his jacket, beckoning Kevin over. “Come here, sug. Allow me to clean up my hero, hmm?”
“You don’t have to do that,” Kevin said even as he came closer. “It’s nothin’ really.”
“Seems we both have a penchant for ending up with blood on us.” Percy chuckled as he gently dabbed Kevin’s lip.
“Guess we do.” Kevin tried not to drift too far into Percy’s touch.
“Thank you, by the way. That was very kind of you.”
“Just doing my job.” Kevin smiled and licked at his lip when Percy withdrew.
Huh.
He’d thought his lip was split, but he couldn’t feel anything. It must not have been as bad as he’d thought it was. “This place isn’t like that. It’s usually really easy going around here.”
“It’s quite all right, sug. I’m not unfamiliar with a little bit of adversity.” Percy put his handkerchief back with a deep grunt. “So, adding bouncer now to your list of jobs. Do you offer any kind of emotional support services by chance? I feel very traumatized.”
“Are you now?” Kevin chuckled.
“I may need physical affection. Perhaps even sexual relations to heal from this.”
“Well, damn. I can’t resist a damsel in distress.” Kevin grinned. “And you do seem really shaken. I wouldn’t be a decent guy if I left you in this kinda shape.”
“So.” Percy’s eyes glimmered with mischief. “What are you going to do about it?”
“Well…” Kevin invaded Percy’s space, leaning in close as if they were about to kiss. He was reaching around for the empty glass, but he was delighted to see how Percy’s expression morphed into hunger when their proximity increased. “I got about twenty more minutes until I’m off.” He winked as he pulled away, heading back around the bar. “For starters, I think I’ll get you another drink for your nerves while we wait.”
Percy watched him like a hawk, waiting until he was standing across from him to say, “And how do you intend to finish? Other than balls deep inside of yours truly, obviously.”
Kevin laughed. “Man, are you always gonna be this grateful when I defend your honor?”
“Without a doubt, sug.”
Kevin’s chest tightened, and he wished Percy’s sly smile would make him feel like this forever. He had no idea how long it might last, but right now it was everything he’d ever wanted.
Funny how ‘everything’ was a horny guy who had orgies for work, but the Lord worked in mysterious ways and all that.
