Birthday dinner between Susan and Justin
WHO: Justin and Susan
WHEN: Monday November 3rd
WHERE: Justin's flat
WHAT: Justin wanted to make a little something special for Susan, so he's making her dinner.
RATING: PG
STATUS: ongoing

Justin put the pasta in the pot and grinned, stirring them so they wouldn't stick. "I'm glad you could come over." He said happily now putting the veggies in the skillet and mixing them up gently before turning to his friend. He was so happy to be able to be doing this for his friends when they had done it for him so often. A nice little dinner to catch up, eating something else than take out.

"I don't usually have days off during the week but, hey, I'm happy to switch shifts here and there. I possibly sold my soul this time though, I agreed to work this Friday night." He blushed and stirred the pasta and the veggies again. He hoped Seamus wouldn't mind.

"Yeah, well, it's mostly teasing between Ernie and I." He said with a sigh and a shake of the head. "It's all there is." He gave her a smile.

Justin listened to Susan as she spoke about Seamus and he nodded. "I do my best Susan. I swear I do." He said softly. "I'm trying so hard to be there for him, to hold onto him.. There is just those times where he just.." Justin felt terribly guilty at not being able to be a better friend than that. "I wish he'd talk to me but he doesn't. We're supposed to be friends, but when he's in a mood he doesn't say much."

He swallowed thickly. "I care about him. And sometimes, I wonder if he cares back." He lowered his head in guilt, knowing he probably shouldn't be doubting like that. But he did.

"I get it that he's probably trying to push me away, heck I do it with Ernie sometimes. But I wonder if I can help him. If he'll ever let me." He looked at Susan and he cleared his throat because he wouldn't let her see that it was affecting him.

Susan shook her head for a moment. "That's what I'm saying dear, it's fantastic that you're holding onto him so much but don't lose yourself along the way. Don't let his moods and self-loathing swallow you up, and if you think he doesn't care - make him talk about it. Don't let him off." She shook her head for a moment to collect her thoughts and then continued. "One of Seamus' bits is that he pushes people away and then plays the martyr when they eventually fuck off, and Justin don't let him do it. He may not be in love with you or you with him but he should respect you okay? You're important."

"Anyway," she said, getting up and dragging him into a rough hug. "It's time for me to leave I think. Love yeou dear heart."

	Justin hugged her back just as fiercely, burrowing his face in her neck. "Thank you so much for coming though. I know I scare people away with my cooking." he told her as he pulled back. What Susan had said about Seamus was definitely food for though. "Take care, okay?" he asked her even though he knew she was a careful person. (Reply to this) (Parent)
