Drabble 12: A Man Who Fights For Your Honour-Part 2
"Oh my God!" Helen said as she ran into the break room of the Plumbers Base. "Have any of you heard?"
"Heard what?" Alan asked.
"Kevin got arrested for beating up some guy at Burger Shack!"
This intrigues Pierce, pulling his attention away from his laptop. In his mind, he was thinking 'Kevin plus jail time equals Ben being depressed and would be on the rebound!' Ben would probably be sad and looking for Magister Tennyson, his grandfather. Ben would need a shoulder to cry on, and Pierce figured he could be that supportive shoulder. Pierce came out of his daydreaming when he heard voices in the hallway.
"I can't believe you got arrested for beating up Cash!" Ben said astonished. "Let alone, you broke his arm, gave him two black eyes and dislocated his jaw!"
"Hey, the jackass deserved it." Kevin said. "After the stuff he said about you...I wasn't goin' to sit back while he trashed your reputation!"
"I'm still surprised your bail was so cheap, let alone you don't have to go to court for battery charges."
"I had enough witnesses at Burger Shack who heard what Cash said about you to backup my reasons for pounding the shit out of him." Kevin explained. "Plus since it was female officers who took me into the precinct, when they heard the story, they thought it was sweet and gave me a break."
"Female officers, huh?" Ben smirked. "Should I be jealous?"
"Nah!" Kevin wrapped his arms around Ben's waist and gave him a chaste kiss. "I only have eyes for you, Benjy."
Pierce turned his attention back to his laptop. The fluffy moment in the hallway made Alan gag and leave the area. Helen decided to look over Pierce's shoulder, curious to see what was more interesting on the computer.
"What are you searching for?" Helen asked. She was concerned about her brother, knowing how deeply he felt for Ben.
"An online dating service." Pierce answered. "I've decided that there's too much drama with Ben. I'll take my chances with a complete stranger."
