Based on - of all things - the Aerosmith song of the same name. Rawk!

She's telling him to wait in the room for her as she finishes in the bathroom. Her voice wavers, a little, and his throat is dry, but they've come so far that he can't help but think it was only ever going to end here.

"Why don't you wear pink?"


"What?"


"Pink. The colour." Pause. "You'd look good in pink, like a baby pink."


"Crews."


"it would set off your eyes. Maybe we should go get a pink shirt."


"Crews."


"Why don't you wear pink, Reese?"


"Why don't you wear pink?"


"Red hair."


"Oh."


"Clashes."


"I got that."

Oh, them.

I am also opening the floor for requests-for-drabbles, if you want to leave a comment to inspire me! (Lord knows by Friday I'll be out of ideas and it'll be an all-in orgy with all my partnerz and the cast of High School Musical or something.)

beautiful and them. also, aerosmith!

requests, hmmmmm. leverage! general team being awesomley awesome is awesome, but some kind of pretendery crossover would be much loved. crossovers in general, like criminal intent/criminal minds, life/burn notice. i forget if you have seen being human, but there is a critically low volume of fic for it, despite its pretty.

p.s. oh, oh, more skyhooks rpf!

p.p.s. is leverage/icarly to damn crazy? idek, but sam and parker might be awesome.
