Who: Sam Ford and Eliot Spencer
What: Meeting for Breakfast Monday Morning
Warnings: Not likely

Eliot claimed a table, and ordered coffee while he waited for Sam. He drank his coffee black, with only a little sugar in it to sweeten it just slightly. He drank it hot, and had the waitress refilling it every time she walked past his table with the pot.

He drummed his fingers on the table, for something to do. He didn't really like sitting around, but he hated to be late so he had arrived early. He shifted, eyes turning to the streetside window, hoping Sam showed up before he drank too much more coffee. he'd be jittery for days, at the rate he was putting it away.

	"Like when you said that thing about not cutting Hardison off?" Okay, Sam just couldn't resist a perfect setup like that. He was grinning a little as he lifted his mug again to drink. Too bad his cover was empty. He put the mug down and tried not to look too amused. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I should have known that's what this was about," Eliot held his gaze steady on Sam. If Sam wanted specific information, he was going to have to dig for it, Eliot wasn't going to volunteer anything without prompting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"What tipped you off? When I told you we should meet in person to talk about it?" He didn't want to piss Eliot off, or anything. He shrugged. "Look, I didn't set you up. You don't have to tell me anything. But believe me when I say I know how much it sucks when you don't have anyone to talk to. If you do want to talk about it.. I'd be a pretty safe choice."

	Eliot made a face and shook his head. "There's nothing to talk about." As far as Eliot was concerned, that was true. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Whatever," Sam shrugged, leaning back. "Suit yourself, man." Sam wasn't asking out of curiosity. He wanted to be there for Eliot.. To be someone his brother could count on. But if he didn't want to talk, Sam couldn't make him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Look, Sam. I appreciate the offer. And if there was anything to say I'd say it. But I don't even know what I would say. I'm not sitting around thinking about jumping Hardison when no one else is around. Half the time, I don't even know if he likes me at all. I made a comment, and yeah, if he came to me, and said he was interested I wouldn't push him away. Doesn't mean I'm hot for him." Eliot didn't like the impression that he'd upset Sam somehow. That was never his intent, and he may have been trying to over compensate to try and make things right.

Sam nodded. "I get it." He knew where Eliot was coming from. That was sort of how he'd felt about Iggy, for a little while. But then, splash on some teenage hormones and it exploded into a hot mess. He wondered if it was just Hardison that Eliot wouldn't push away. It didn't really matter, he guessed. Right now, Iggy was the only person Sam wanted to be with. Obviously it was a lot different with Eliot.

"That makes sense," he said, nodding. He'd always pictured Parker and Hardison together, but Eliot and Hardison wouldn't be so bad. Kind of a cute couple. He couldn't help smiling a bit. "Well, I hope things work out.. however makes you guys happy." That was cheesy.

	"Things always work out, in the end." Eliot said, though he probably didn't really believe it. "It's called karma," he added with a little smile. "So if it's meant to be, it will be. And if not, that's okay too." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sam shrugged and smiled to Eliot. "Hope so." He ran a hand through his hair. "You know.. I'm a little relieved. That you. I don't know." He wasn't really sure how to say it without sounding insulting. He laughed some. "Makes me feel cooler, I guess" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"What? Because I implied I might not be against a relationship with Hardison?" Eliot made a face at Sam. "Feel cool because you are cool, Sam. Don't compare yourself to me, or anyone else." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Hey. You're the first other person I've met that might not be against a relationship with Hardison." He smirked. "I'm just glad you're not lame. As role models go, you don't suck." He held up his hands. "Don't freak out, it's not gonna get weird." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Eliot shook his head. "No, the awkward part is you looking up to me." Eliot wasn't worried about the other. Even if Sam had a crush on him, he was certain Sam would keep that sort of thing to himself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Uh. Yeah. That's what I meant." He raised an eyebrow and gave Eliot a 'What did you think I meant?' look. Even if Sam didn't know Eliot was his brother, he was still way too old. "Just saying. I'm not gonna be following you around and trying to act just like you or anything. Not going to ask you to be my jedi master." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Good, because once you add light saber to the mix, there's no going back>" Eliot cracked a smile. He didn't often throw a joke like that, but every once in a while he let something slip. (Reply to this) (Parent)
