priscaTitle: A Fight at the Mall
Character: Casey Connor, Zeke Tyler
Prompt: buying a gift for yourself
Words: 437
:::
„This is the most interesting illustrated book by Ansel Adams I have ever seen.“ Casey's eyes sparkled. „It's a bit expensive, but if I save the money I get from the job at the photo studio, I can buy it in about three months.“ He laughed. „As a birthday present for myself.“
„Hm.“ Zeke looked at him thoughtfully. „Buying a gift for yourself sounds a bit pathic, don't you think so? I don't get it; why do you refuse to accept it as a gift from me?“
Casey frowned. „Not this again, Zeke, please. I don't want you to spend so much money on me. You can invite me to a movie on my birthday, and maybe we can have a pizza afterward.“
"We have a movie and pizza almost every weekend." Zeke huffed. „And I have enough money to invite you into the most expensive restaurant in Columbus,“
„I know!“ Slowly, Casey started to get angry. „Your parents own one of the most successful car businesses on the East Coast. But do you have to mention this again and again?
My dad has only a job at an insurance office. We never had much money, but my childhood was great anyway. I didn't miss anything, and since I am jobbing for the photo studio, I can save some money every month. Enough to buy me what I want. I don't need your hand-outs.“
„Good God, Casey,“ Zeke yelled, not caring about the other people around. „I give a shit about my parents and all their money. Yes, I never needed to live without it, I could always buy, what I wanted, but did this make me happy? My life was pretty much fucked up before I met you.
You were the first one who ever cared about me; you did believe in me, and you kicked my ass more than just once when I started to lose track again. Without you, I would still hang around in shabby clubs and do illegal street races because I wouldn't give anything about my life.
All I want is to give you a little bit back. I'm not good with words or other romantic stuff. But my bank account is fully stocked, and I don't know what to do with all the money. So, what's wrong with it, when I want to buy a fucking illustrated book for the guy I love?“
The world seemed to stop turning around. Casey stared at his boyfriend with his eyes wide open. „Shit,“ he finally murmured. „I've never thought a mall would be the place for our coming out.“
